Five Valuable Things I Picked In 2021 by Interesting15: 7:08am On Jan 02, 2022
Actually, I learnt a lot of things in the past year that has contributed heavily to my growth. Let me pick five of them which I believe will be beneficial to you too.

1. That God Loves Humankind Much More Than I Thought

I've known since childhood that God so loved the world, and love made Him gave us His only begotten Son Jesus to die for our sins. Nevertheless, I started realizing last year that God's Love in Christ Jesus is much deeper than we think we know. As in, God, despite being Omnipotent and can do without us, is still chasing us about, trying to bring us to Himself so we can become sons and daughters of His, and live a blessed life. Jesus died for us when we don't deserve it. And while many people in the world today are running away from having an intimate relationship with Him, His Love keeps chasing them so they won't be destroyed. Then I learnt that, for a lifetime, I will have to keep learning and exploring the mystery of the Love of Christ.

2. That All Humans Are Meant To Have Dominion As Kings And Priests

Humans were created by the Creator to have dominion over creation. Unfortunately, we lost this when Adam and Eve sinned in the Garden of Eden. But Jesus Christ came to restore the Authority we lost. We are meant to have dominion and exercise rulership. Hence, it is an abberation to be a slave to sin, sickness, poverty, satan, hell fire, and other negative things. The way to have true dominion is to ensure an intimate righteous relationship with God, which is what empowers us to rule as kings and priests. "And (Jesus Christ) have made us kings and priests to our God; and we shall reign on the earth" Revelation 5:10. This is your destiny - but it can only be a reality in Christ Jesus.


3. Biblical Principles Should Be Given Greater Priority Above All Other Opinions

If we can live our lives in complete obedience to what God is saying and have said in His word the Bible, our individual lives and collective societies will experience true peace and prosperity. It doesn't matter your religion - mediate on the words of the Bible and live your life in accordance to biblical principles.

4. That Jesus Is More Than Sufficient

If you don't know anybody, but you know Jesus, it is more than enough. You don't need to have connections before you excel - once you know Jesus Christ, you won't be small. Hence, it is wisdom to have a relationship with Jesus Christ


5. That The Holy Spirit Is A Real Helper

I started seeing the Holy Spirit helping me in ways I haven't seen before, and He became real to me than before. The Holy Spirit enjoys helping us. Give Him a chance to help you.

God bless the new year for your sake as you cultivate an intimate relationship with Him through Jesus Christ. Please, walk with God and serve Him in spirit and in truth this year. God bless you

1. God loved us so much that he sent his only begotten (i.e.born by reproduction)....

Why does God need to father a son? Why can't he save us himself?
What sort of dad send his son to die?

2. Adam and Eve are two different humans our ancestors! Why should I inherit their sin? And is God not a forgiving God anymore? They have repented why can't he just forgive and forget instead of making innocent people inherit sins they know nothing about!

And saying all humans are meant to have dominion as kings and priests is far from the Truth.

Even Jesus and his disciples never came close to having dominion as kings and priests.

3. Talking about biblical principles do you mean the old testament or the New testament? I know you'll subscribe more to the latter and cherry pick from the latter!

4. Is Jesus sufficient or God almighty is sufficient?

Same Jesus that was asked of the hour but doesn't know it.

Same Jesus that was praying face on the ground to another God!

Same Jesus that allegedly said My God My God why have you abandoned me? A statement of disbelief!

Same Jesus that says he can of himself do nothing!

5. The holy spirit is just a figment of Christian's imagination. I see Christians saying they are in the spirit singing and forming Holiness. Only for them to start doing nonsense after! It doesn't stop them from errors like nudity, gossips, stealing, fornication, jealousy/envy, etc.

Where's the holy spirit in failed prophesies we've been witnessing?

Jesus is the physical manifestation of the Word of God, while the Holy Spirit is the spiritual manifestation.

They are both parts of God's nature and identity.

If God is Holy, then His Word, Jesus, is Holy as well and His Spirit, (the Holy Spirit) would also partake of this holiness.

If God is eternal and uncreated, then His Word (Jesus) would also be Eternal and uncreated as would His Holy Spirit. Christians do not believe that Jesus began to exist 2000 years ago in Bethlehem and that he stopped existing after concluding His earthly ministry.

Rather Jesus is uncreated and has always existed as The Word of God before He took upon a human form and entered into creation.

He is the Son of God by divine prophecy and not in the crude over sexualized way that Islam's sex crazy prophet accuses Christianity.
