Our Saviour Jesus Christ is forever faithful

Believer, have you been let down or betrayed by someone you trusted lately, even something akin to Joseph's brothers selling him into slavery or the cup-bearer forgetting him in prison or even Potiphar's wife bearing false witness against him? BY GOD'S GRACE ALONE (so tell Him alone about it) don't fret or wonder "how could they do this to me?" This is human nature: very fickle.

Sometimes, people forget; or they get too embarrased to tell you that they don't have the power to do whatever it is you asked or begged them to. At other times, people are just plain mean and really want to see you fail for whatever reason. Anyone of us could be at the receiving or giving end of any of these situations at any time but for the grace of God. "The arm of flesh will fail." Not "might fail," but "will fail." Even yours:) Only in Christ do we stand firmly.

Whatever it is you are faced with, believe Jesus (know that He has finished the work of your salvation and you have nothing to add to it,) and you will be saved from it. As the righteousness of God in Christ, I believe that the Lord is doing a work in your life that will elevate you beyond your wildest dreams and make you able to forgive and even love those who hurt you deeply, much like Joseph's experience. By His grace, keep seeing yourself as Christ is.

The Holy Spirit will teach you all things.

Believe Right and you will Live Right.

Repentance - what is it?

When many of us believers think of the word Repentance, we think "feeling really bad because we sinned," "promising God that we will stop sinning," and "making the decision to live a holy life from now on." But did you notice that there is no Saviour Jesus in this equation? It all rests on you. Jesus does not do anything here. This is a Judas kind of repentance - towards self and not towards God. This is repentance to death and not repentance to life. The Parable of the Lost Sheep shows us what true repentance is - a gift from God. Luke 15: 4 - 7 “What man of you, having a hundred sheep, if he loses one of them, does not leave the ninety-nine in the wilderness, and go after the one which is lost until he finds it? 5 And when he has found it, he lays it on his shoulders, rejoicing. 6 And when he comes home, he calls together his friends and neighbours, saying to them, ‘Rejoice with me, for I have found my sheep which was lost!’ 7 I say to you that li

How does one partake of the Lord's Supper in an unworthy manner?

How do you partake of the Holy Communion in an unworthy manner and eat and drink judgment to yourself? The bible says there is none righteous, no, not one, so it is definitely not by partaking when you're not 'righteous' as is being preached in many churches today! No one is righteous on their own. 1 Corinthians 11: 29 says it's by "...not discerning the Lord's body." The bible says in 1 Cor 11:30 that "for this reason, many are weak and sick among you, and many sleep." Notice that it is for the singular reason of "not discerning the Lord's body" and not because you committed some sin before partaking. With Christ as our righteousness and forsaking that which is borne of works of the law, we are righteous in God's eyes 100% because "He made Him who knew no sin to be sin for us that we might become the righteousness of God in Christ." 2 Corinthians 5:21. Bear in mind that without God's gift of righteous

What does it mean to be a "neither cold nor hot" Christian?

Before his conversion, Saul was very zealous for God, upholding the Law and ensuring that anyone who believed that Jesus Christ has fulfilled the righteous requirements of the Law in all who believe landed in jail. Like his fellow Pharisees, his righteousness depended on his ability to keep the Law. His life and his ministry was all about "Thou shall not" and "Thou shall"... or else judgment, as it is with many who profess to believe in our Saviour Jesus today! Believers, don't be deceived! If you think that it is your various fasts, trips to some mountain, church donations and vigils and almost-strict observance of the Ten Commandments that makes God pleased with you or bless you, you are worse off than pre-conversion Paul and his fellow Pharisees whom Christ referred to as a "brood of vipers." What such people get in return for their self-righteousness is being cut off from Christ, according to Galatians 5:4 "For if you are trying to make
