THE GOSPEL IS NOT A DOCTRINE 

By Leave a Comment

THE GOSPEL IS NOT A DOCTRINE: IT IS THE POWER AND WISDOM OF GOD UNTO HUMAN SALVATION! 

“For the JEWS require a SIGN, and the GREEKS seek after WISDOM: 23 but we PREACH Christ CRUCIFIED, unto the JEWS a STUMBLINGBLOCK, and unto the GREEKS FOOLISHNESS; 24 but unto THEM which ARE CALLED, both JEWS and GREEKS, Christ the POWER of God, and the WISDOM of God” 1 Corinthians 1:22-24. 

The Gospel is the good news of the cross. The cross is about Christ Jesus, and Christ Jesus is the power and wisdom of God. The power and wisdom of God are about human salvation – nothing else and nothing more. Anything beyond this is bondage, distortion, adulteration, and perversion. 

The Gospel is to preach Christ Jesus, the Word made flesh, who brings complete and wholesome redemption to all mankind who look to Him. If you must preach, teach, and minister the Gospel, then ensure you preach, teach, and minister the Word – that is, Christ Jesus. Then the Word, who is Christ Jesus, the Saviour and Lord, will bring salvation – the answer to all human quests and controversies. 

“And without CONTROVERSY great is the MYSTERY of GODLINESS: God was MANIFEST in the FLESH, JUSTIFIED in the Spirit, seen of angels, PREACHED unto the Gentiles, BELIEVED on in the world, RECEIVED up into glory” 1 Timothy 3:16. 

“In the beginning was THE WORD, and THE WORD was with God, and THE WORD was God. 2 The same was in the beginning with God. 3 All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made. 4 In him was life; and the life was the light of men. 5 And the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not . . . 14 And THE WORD was made FLESH, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth” John 1:1-5, 14.  

Therefore, if the gospel you hear, receive, or follow does not liberate you in Christ Jesus, discard it. Otherwise, you will end up in more bondage than you anticipated. Your ears and your life are not made for garbage or erroneous information, but for the pure sayings of God (Proverbs 4:20–23). 

The Gospel gives life and meaning to gracious and graceful living. It brings the power of God unto human deliverance, healing, peace, tranquillity, soundness, victory, prosperity, triumph, mercy, forgiveness, joy, and much more. 

“Therefore they that were scattered abroad went every where PREACHING THE WORD. 5 Then Philip went down to the city of Samaria, and PREACHED CHRIST unto them. 6 And the people with ONE ACCORD GAVE HEED unto those things which Philip spake, HEARING and SEEING the MIRACLES which he did. 7 For unclean spirits, crying with loud voice, came out of many that were possessed with them: and many taken with palsies, and that were lame, were healed. 8 AND THERE WAS GREAT JOY IN THAT CITY” Acts 8:4-8. 

The Apostles, forerunners of Christ Jesus, did nothing but preach, teach, and minister the Word – Christ Jesus as their sole and only message that transforms all who believe in the Gospel [Acts 8:4-8; 1 Corinthians 15:1-11]. They tolerated no adulteration of the Gospel with doctrines or denominational spirits. By the Gospel, in just over two years, the Apostle reached the whole of Asia in his day, transforming lives toward God and His Christ, not toward religion or denomination (Acts 19:10–12). 

The Gospel is not religion, not doctrine, not denomination, not prophecy awaiting fulfilment, nor tradition, dogma, creed, bylaw, or philosophy. The Gospel is life – the very life of Father God, in Christ Jesus, by the Holy Spirit, in us (1 John 4:4–6; Acts 17:28; 1 John 5:7). Therefore, flee from every contrary teaching and live in the liberty wherein Christ Jesus has made you whole and free, in the blessedness of Father God. Amen. 

“Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the GOSPEL which I PREACHED unto you, which also ye have RECEIVED, and wherein ye stand; 2 by which also ye ARE SAVED, if ye keep in memory what I PREACHED unto you, unless ye have BELIEVED in vain. 3 For I DELIVERED unto you first of all that which I also RECEIVED, how that Christ DIED for our sins according to the scriptures; 4 and that he was BURIED, and that he ROSE again the third day according to the scriptures . . . 11 Therefore whether it were I or they, so we PREACH, and so ye BELIEVED” 1 Corinthians 15:1-11. 

The Gospel Was Preached to Abraham – Long Before the Law, Kings, and Prophets! 

“Even as Abraham believed God, and it was accounted to him for righteousness. 7 Know ye therefore that they which ARE of faith, the same are the children of Abraham. 8 And the scripture, foreseeing that God would JUSTIFY the heathen through faith, PREACHED before the GOSPEL unto Abraham, saying, In thee shall ALL NATIONS BE BLESSED. 9 So then they which be of faith ARE blessed with faithful Abraham” Galatians 3:6-9. 

“Now the Lord had said unto Abram, Get thee out of thy country, and from thy kindred, and from thy father’s house, unto a land that I will shew thee: 2 and I will make of thee a great nation, and I will bless thee, and make thy name great; and thou shalt be a blessing: 3 and I will bless them that bless thee, and curse him that curseth thee: and in thee shall all families of the earth be blessed” Genesis 12:1-3. 

The Gospel was preached to Abraham concerning us, over four hundred years before the law came into effect, and long before the days of kings and prophets. This reveals the power and wisdom of God in redemption concerning us in every respect. 

It is time to live by the Gospel – not by religion, doctrine, denominational creeds, by-laws, traditional dogmas, or sentiments. The Gospel is not fragmented. It is whole, complete, and total, embracing all of our redemption acts and processes, and our redemption rights and privileges. There is only one Gospel of Christ Jesus (Philippians 1:27; 1 Thessalonians 3:2; 1 Corinthians 1:30). 

The Apostles never fragmented the Gospel into small ministries of “sanctification,” “holiness,” “faith,” “deliverance,” or “prosperity.” They preached Christ alone, the whole Gospel, without adulteration or denominational sectarianism. 

Therefore: Preach the Gospel! Teach the Gospel!! Minister the Gospel!!! Do this in wholeness, not in fragments that lead to bondage through man-made doctrines and denominational inclinations. Let Christ alone be the Gospel (Philippians 1:15–18; Galatians 1:6–9). 

You do not need “deliverance” – you need the Gospel. The Gospel itself brings deliverance, setting captives free. Christ Jesus, who is the Gospel, is the Deliverer. He has delivered us and translated us into the Kingdom of God by the Gospel we have heard [Luke 4:18 (14-22); Colossians 1:12-14]. When you hear and believe the Gospel, your deliverance comes by its power (Romans 1:16–17). Only the Gospel message brings true deliverance; anything else is error [Matthew 22:29]. 

May God cause you to abound in the Gospel, so that you may have the fullness of His blessedness in redemption, in Christ Jesus. Amen.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH READING & PONDERING IN CONTEXT: 

“For I am not ASHAMED of the GOSPEL of Christ: for it is the POWER of God unto SALVATION to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek. 17 For therein is the RIGHTEOUSNESS of God REVEALED from FAITH to FAITH: as it is written, The JUST shall LIVE by FAITH” Romans 1:16-17. 

“And how I kept back nothing that was PROFITABLE unto you, but have SHEWED you, and have TAUGHT you PUBLICKLY, and from HOUSE TO HOUSE, 21 testifying both to the Jews, and also to the Greeks, REPENTANCE toward God, and FAITH toward our Lord Jesus Christ” Acts 20:20-21. 

“Therefore being JUSTIFIED by faith, we have PEACE with God through our Lord Jesus Christ: 2 by whom also we have ACCESS by FAITH into this GRACE wherein we STAND, and REJOICE in HOPE of the GLORY of God” Romans 5:1-2. 

“For Christ SENT me not to baptize, but to PREACH THE GOSPEL: not with wisdom of words, lest the CROSS of Christ should be made of none effect. 18 For the PREACHING of the CROSS is to them that perish FOOLISHNESS; but unto us which are SAVED it is the POWER of God. 19 For it is written, I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, and will bring to nothing the understanding of the prudent. 20 Where is the wise? where is the scribe? where is the disputer of this world? hath not God made foolish the wisdom of this world? 21 For after that in the wisdom of God the world by wisdom knew not God, it pleased God by the foolishness of PREACHING to save them that believe. 22 For the Jews require a sign, and the Greeks seek after wisdom: 23 but we PREACH Christ CRUCIFIED, unto the Jews a STUMBLINGBLOCK, and unto the Greeks FOOLISHNESS; 24 but unto them which ARE CALLED, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the POWER of God, and the WISDOM of God” 1 Corinthians 1:17-24. 

“And THIS GOSPEL OF THE KINGDOM shall be PREACHED in all the WORLD for a WITNESS unto ALL NATIONS; and then shall the END come” Matthew 24:14. 

“And Jesus went about all the cities and villages, TEACHING in their synagogues, and PREACHING THE GOSPEL OF THE KINGDOM, and HEALING every sickness and every disease among the people” Matthew 9:35. 

“In the beginning was THE WORD, and THE WORD was with God, and THE WORD was God. 2 The same was in the beginning with God. 3 All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made. 4 In him was life; and the life was the light of men. 5 And the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not . . . 14 And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth” John 1:1-5, 14 

“For there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, THE WORD, and the Holy Ghost: and these three are one” 1 John 5:7. 

“Some indeed PREACH CHRIST even of ENVY and STRIFE; and some also of GOOD WILL: 16 the one PREACH CHRIST of CONTENTION, NOT SINCERELY, SUPPOSING to add affliction to my bonds: 17 but the other of LOVE, knowing that I am set for the DEFENCE of the GOSPEL. 18 What then? notwithstanding, every way, whether in PRETENCE, or in TRUTH, CHRIST IS PREACHED; and I therein do rejoice, yea, and will rejoice” Philippians 1:15-18. 

“I marvel that ye are so soon removed from him that called you into the grace of Christ unto ANOTHER GOSPEL: 7 which is NOT ANOTHER; but there be some that TROUBLE you, and would PERVERT the GOSPEL of Christ. 8 But though WE, or an ANGEL from heaven, PREACH any OTHER GOSPEL unto you than that which we have PREACHED unto you, let him be ACCURSED. 9 As we said before, so say I now again, If ANY man PREACH any OTHER GOSPEL unto you than that ye have received, let him be accursed” Galatians 1:6-9. 

“Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the GOSPEL which I PREACHED unto you, which also ye have RECEIVED, and wherein ye stand; 2 by which also ye ARE SAVED, if ye keep in memory what I PREACHED unto you, unless ye have BELIEVED in vain. 3 For I DELIVERED unto you first of all that which I also RECEIVED, how that Christ DIED for our sins according to the scriptures; 4 and that he was BURIED, and that he ROSE again the third day according to the scriptures: 5 and that he was seen of Cephas, then of the twelve: 6 after that, he was seen of above five hundred brethren at once; of whom the greater part remain unto this present, but some are fallen asleep. 7 After that, he was seen of James; then of all the apostles. 8 And last of all he was seen of me also, as of one born out of due time. 9 For I am the least of the apostles, that am not meet to be called an apostle, because I persecuted the church of God. 10 But by the grace of God I am what I am: and his grace which was bestowed upon me was not in vain; but I laboured more abundantly than they all: yet not I, but the grace of God which was with me. 11 Therefore whether it were I or they, so we PREACH, and so ye BELIEVED” 1 Corinthians 15:1-11. 

SUMMARY: 

This message centres on the purity and supremacy of the Gospel. The message declares that the Gospel IS Christ Jesus, the Word made flesh, and anything added to or taken from Him is bondage, distortion, and perversion. 

It calls believers back to preaching, teaching, and ministering Christ alone — not doctrines, denominations, religion, or philosophy — because in Him is all of salvation, deliverance, healing, and life. 

KEY POINTS: 

  1. THE GOSPEL DEFINED: CHRIST CRUCIFIED
    1 Corinthians 1:22-24— To the Jews a stumbling block, to the Greeks foolishness, but to them who are called, Christ is the POWER of God and the WISDOM of God. 
    The Gospel is the good news of the cross. The cross is about Christ Jesus. Therefore the Gospel is Christ Jesus. 
  2. THE GOSPEL IS NOT RELIGION OR DOCTRINE
    The Gospel is not: religion, denomination, tradition, dogma, creed, bylaw, prophecy, or philosophy.
    Anything beyond Christ and His finished work is bondage. The Apostles preached Christ alone and tolerated no adulteration Galatians 1:6-9, Philippians 1:15-18. 
  3. THE GOSPEL IS THE WORD MADE FLESH
    John 1:1-5, 14 + 1 Timothy 3:16: God was manifest in the flesh.
    To preach the Gospel is to preach the Word — Christ Jesus. When Christ is preached, salvation, healing, deliverance, peace, joy, prosperity, and all redemption benefits follow Acts 8:4-8. 
  4. THE GOSPEL BRINGS COMPLETE SALVATION
    Romans 1:16-17: It is the power of God unto salvation to everyone who believes.
    It brings deliverance, healing, victory, forgiveness, and translates us into the Kingdom Colossians 1:12-14. 
    You don’t need “deliverance ministries” separate from the Gospel — the Gospel itself is the Deliverer. 
  5. THE GOSPEL IS ANCIENT AND WHOLE
    Galatians 3:6-9 + Genesis 12:1-3:The Gospel was preached to Abraham 400+ years before the law — “In thee shall all nations be blessed.” 
    It is not fragmented. There is only ONE Gospel of Christ Jesus Philippians 1:27. The Apostles didn’t split it into “faith”, “holiness”, “prosperity” ministries. They preached Christ, the whole Gospel. 
  6. WARNING AGAINST ANOTHER GOSPEL
    Galatians 1:8-9:If anyone preaches any other gospel, let him be accursed. 
    Your ears and life are for the pure sayings of God Proverbs 4:20-23. If what you hear does not liberate you in Christ Jesus, discard it. 

CALL TO ACTION: 

TO ALL BELIEVERS AND MINISTERS: 

  1. Preach Christ Only — Teach, minister, and live the Word — Christ Jesus. He is the full Gospel. 
  2. Reject Additions — Flee from religion, denominational creeds, and man-made doctrines that fragment the Gospel and bring bondage. 
  3. Stand in the Power — Believe and keep the Gospel you received 1 Corinthians 15:1-2. It is God’s power for salvation and righteous living. 
  4. Live by the Gospel — Let the life of Father God, in Christ Jesus, by the Holy Spirit, be expressed in you. The just shall live by faith. 

SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK: Christ Jesus is the Gospel. Preach Him. Believe Him. Live Him. Amen.

NOT ASHAMED OF THE GOSPEL: THEN GO FORTH TO PREACH 

By Leave a Comment

NOT ASHAMED OF THE GOSPEL: THEN GO FORTH TO PREACH – TEACH – AND MINISTER THE GOSPEL TO ALL! 

Are you ASHAMED or EMBOLDENED to PREACH, TEACH AND MINISTER the GOSPEL to the unreached, untouched and unsaved within your family, community and environment? Do you know the cost of a soul? 

“. . .. They that TRUST in their WEALTH and BOAST themselves in the multitude of their RICHES; 7 none of them can by any means REDEEM his brother, nor GIVE to God a ransom for him, 8 (for the REDEMPTION of their soul is PRECIOUS, and it ceaseth forever:) 9 that he should still LIVE forever, and not see corruption . . . ” Psalms 49:1-20 Amplified. 

The cost of a soul is not qualified or quantified by any de facto CURRENCY in humanity, and nothing on earth can amount to the cost of that soul near you who might need the GOSPEL while you yet pass by as if it doesn’t matter.  

There’s NO contention, controversy, prejudice or dissimulation [HYPOCRISY] in the GOSPEL – and that’s what makes it unique among all in making a difference in all. For the GOSPEL is not a doctrine to be taught. It is the enabling power of God that gives HOPE, FAITH and LOVE that everyone needs to do life and live godly by God in Christ Jesus’ stead. Amen. 

“For I am not ashamed of THE GOSPEL of Christ: for it is THE POWER of God unto SALVATION to everyone that believeth; to THE JEW first, and also to THE GREEK. 17 For therein is the righteousness of God revealed from faith to faith: as it is written, The just shall live by faith” Romans 1:16-17. 

“And without CONTROVERSY great is the mystery of GODLINESS: God was MANIFEST in the flesh, JUSTIFIED in the Spirit, SEEN of angels, PREACHED unto the Gentiles, BELIEVED on in the world, RECEIVED up into glory” 1 Timothy 3:16. 

Ensure your day-to-day life by the Gospel. It’s the hallmark of a purpose-driven life with God, to live a meaningful and fulfilling life in the grace.  

SELAH – PAUSE THINK!  

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT: 

“For I am not ashamed of THE GOSPEL of Christ: for it is THE POWER of God unto SALVATION to every one that believeth; to THE JEW first, and also to THE GREEK. 17 For therein is the righteousness of God revealed from faith to faith: as it is written, The just shall live by faith” Romans 1:16-17. 

“For THE PREACHING of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is THE POWER of God. 19 For it is written, I will destroy THE WISDOM of the wise, and will bring to nothing the understanding of the prudent. 20 Where is the wise? Where is the scribe? Where is the disputer of this world? hath not God made foolish THE WISDOM of this world? 21 For after that in THE WISDOM of God the world by wisdom knew not God, it pleased God by the foolishness of PREACHING to save them that believe. 22 For THE JEWS require a sign, and THE GREEKS seek after wisdom: 23 but we PREACH Christ crucified, unto the JEWS a stumblingblock, and unto the GREEKS foolishness; 24 but unto them which are called, both JEWS and GREEKS, Christ THE POWER of God, and THE WISDOM of God” 1 Corinthians 1:18-24. 

“Therefore they that were scattered abroad went every where PREACHING THE WORD. 5 Then Philip went down to the city of Samaria, and PREACHED Christ unto them. 6 And the people with one accord gave heed unto those things which Philip spake, HEARING and seeing the miracles which he did. 7. For unclean spirits, crying with loud voice, came out of many that were possessed with them: and many taken with palsies, and that were lame, were HEALED. 8 And there was GREAT JOY in that city” Acts 8:4-8. 

“Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you THE GOSPEL which I PREACHED unto you, which also ye have RECEIVED, and wherein ye STAND; 2 by which also ye are SAVED, if ye keep in memory what I PREACHED unto you, unless ye have BELIEVED in vain. 3 For I DELIVERED unto you first of all that which I also RECEIVED, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; 4 and that he was BURIED, and that he ROSE again the third day according to the scriptures: 5 and that he was seen of Cephas, then of the twelve: 6 after that, he was seen of above five hundred brethren at once; of whom the greater part remain unto this present, but some are fallen asleep. 7 After that, he was seen of James; then of all the apostles. 8 And last of all he was seen of me also, as of one born out of due time. 9 For I am the least of the apostles, that am not meet to be called an apostle, because I persecuted the church of God. 10 But by the grace of God I am what I am: and his grace which was bestowed upon me was not in vain; but I laboured more abundantly than they all: yet not I, but the grace of God which was with me. 11 Therefore whether it were I or they, so we PREACH, and so ye BELIEVED” 1 Corinthians 15:1-11. 

“And Jesus went about all the CITIES and VILLAGES, TEACHING in their synagogues, and PREACHING the gospel of the kingdom, and HEALING every sickness and every disease among the people” Matthew 9:35. 

“And he came to Nazareth, where he had been brought up: and, as his custom was, he went into the synagogue on the sabbath day, and stood up for to read. 17 And there was delivered unto him the book of the prophet Esaias. And when he had opened the book, he found the place where it was written, 18 The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he hath anointed me to PREACH THE GOSPEL to the poor; he hath sent me to HEAL the brokenhearted, to PREACH deliverance to the captives, and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty them that are bruised, 19 to PREACH the acceptable year of the Lord. 20 And he closed the book, and he gave it again to the minister, and sat down. And the eyes of all them that were in the synagogue were fastened on him. 21 And he began to say unto them, This day is this SCRIPTURE fulfilled in your ears. 22 And all bare him WITNESS, and wondered at the GRACIOUS WORDS which proceeded out of his MOUTH. And they said, Is not this Joseph’s son?” Luke 4:16-22. 

“Even as Abraham believed God, and it was ACCOUNTED to him for righteousness. 7. Know ye therefore that they which ARE of faith, the same are the children of Abraham. 8 And the scripture, foreseeing that God would JUSTIFY the heathen through faith, PREACHED before THE GOSPEL unto Abraham, saying, In thee shall all nations be blessed. 9 So then they which be of faith ARE blessed with faithful Abraham” Galatians 3:6-9. 

SUMMARY: 

The message talks about NOT BEING ASHAMED OF THE GOSPEL, and the urgent mandate to PREACH, TEACH, and MINISTER it to ALL souls without prejudice – from your family to the unreached around you. 

Key Points: 

  1. Boldness Over Shame 
    The message confronts every believer: Are you ASHAMED or EMBOLDENED? We are charged to go forth without fear because the Gospel is God’s power, not a cause for shame. 
    Scripture: Romans 1:16-17 – “For I am not ashamed of THE GOSPEL of Christ: for it is THE POWER of God unto SALVATION…”
  2. The Immeasurable Value of a Soul
    No wealth, riches, or human currency can redeem a soul. One soul near you is more costly than all earthly riches, yet we often pass by as if it doesn’t matter.
    Scripture: Psalm 49:7-8 – “none of them can by any means REDEEM his brother… for the REDEMPTION of their soul is PRECIOUS”
  3. The Nature & Power of the Gospel
    The Gospel carries NO contention, prejudice, or hypocrisy. It is not just doctrine, but the enabling POWER of God that gives HOPE, FAITH and LOVE to live godly. It is the mystery of godliness made manifest in Christ.
    Scripture: 1 Timothy 3:16 – “without CONTROVERSY great is the mystery of GODLINESS: God was MANIFEST in the flesh…”
  4. Biblical Pattern for Ministry
    Jesus preached in CITIES and VILLAGES with healing. Philip brought GREAT JOY to Samaria by preaching Christ. Paul declared and labored in the same Gospel. The pattern is clear: preach Christ crucified to Jew and Gentile alike.  

Scripture: Matthew 9:35; Acts 8:5-8; 1 Corinthians 1:23-24; 1 Corinthians 15:3-4 

Call to Action: 
Ensure your day-to-day life by the Gospel. Be emboldened to PREACH, TEACH, and MINISTER it to the unreached, untouched, and unsaved within your family, community, and environment. Live a purpose-driven life with God, because the Gospel is still the power of God for salvation today.

THE GOSPEL – THE POWER OF GOD, FOR YOUR SALVATION 

By Leave a Comment

THE GOSPEL – THE POWER OF GOD, FOR YOUR SALVATION: PREACH IT – TEACH IT – MINISTER IT AND LIVE IT – FOR THEREIN IT’S YOUR SALVATION IN RIGHTEOUSNESS! 

“For I am not ASHAMED of THE GOSPEL of Christ: for it is THE POWER of God unto SALVATION to EVERYONE that BELIEVETH; to THE JEW first, and also to THE GREEK. 17 For therein is the RIGHTEOUSNESS of God REVEALED from faith to faith: as it is written, The just shall LIVE by faith” Romans 1:16-17. 

The GOSPEL is the ANSWER to every single quest in your life, and in all human history, for today, tomorrow, as it was yesterday – Hebrews 13:8. Unfortunately, many have been blinded and blindsided away from the GOSPEL so they can be controlled and be made to pursue alternatives – through creeds, religion, bylaws, cultural and traditional dogmas, denominational entanglements, and such like. As a result, many remain in perpetual subjection and bondage till this day. Yet the reality of the GOSPEL that ANSWERS every human quest for SALVATION, and that REVEALS the RIGHTEOUSNESS of God, still speaks in our midst today for all to experience and to have complete and wholesome liberation in God through Christ Jesus stead. Amen. Romans 1:16-17. 

It’s only by the GOSPEL that the enabling POWER of God for human SALVATION and to take a stand in God’s RIGHTEOUSNESS is made readily available in His grace and BLESSEDNESS – Romans 5:1-2. And it’s by the GOSPEL that we obtain the right to attain the revelation of God’s RIGHTEOUSNESS to one and all. And SALVATION is synonymous with REDEMPTION, only that in the NEW CREATION context, it’s not exclusive to just being born of God – it entails the following, but not limited to – HEALTH, PEACE, SECURITY, PROSPERITY, DELIVERANCE and such like, and more.  

The GOSPEL ought to be PREACHED, TAUGHT, ADMINISTERED, and LIVED for the SALVATION of people, so that the constituents of SALVATION become ALIVE, TANGIBLE, REACHABLE, LIVEABLE AND LOVABLE. Unfortunately today, what one sees now and again in these last days – if you look around you closely or even far off –  is that people are being staged and managed in deception, counterfeits, adulteration, delusions, and such like, with the idea of pursuing the constituents of SALVATION without the GOSPEL. Instead, they should be PREACHED, TAUGHT, and MINISTERED to with the GOSPEL, which is the POWER of God to bring about the constituents we need to stand in RIGHTEOUSNESS on the realms and lanes of victory and triumph in Christ Jesus stead, as written: 

“I urge you, brothers and sisters, to keep your eyes on those who cause DISSENSIONS and CREATE OBSTACLES or INTRODUCE temptations [for others] to commit sin, [acting in ways] CONTRARY to the DOCTRINE which you have LEARNED. Turn away from them. 18 For such people do not SERVE our Lord Christ, but their own APPETITES and BASE DESIRES. By smooth and FLATTERING speech they DECEIVE the hearts of the unsuspecting [the INNOCENT and the NAIVE]” Romans 16:17-18 Amplified. 

Know full well this day that the GOSPEL is the POWER of God unto human salvation and the REVEALER of God’s RIGHTEOUSNESS in Christ Jesus stead. Amen. And Jesus Christ is that POWER of God unto human SALVATION. And it’s only when we PREACH, TEACH and MINISTER Jesus Christ to ourselves and others, that SALVATION comes alive to meet the needs of humanity and answer their cravings and quests: PEACE, PROSPERITY, DELIVERANCE, SECURITY and such like, and more. Romans 1:16-17; 1 Corinthians 1:24. Acts 8:4-8.  

The GOSPEL is about the WORD of God. And Jesus Christ is the WORD of God. 1 John 5:7. And it’s as we PREACH, TEACH, and MINISTER the WORD as Philip the evangelist did in the Bible days of the Apostles as in – Acts 8:4-8 –  that genuine, indescribable joy comes alive in an individual and in all. It also silences and puts an end to all form of the falsehood, deception, counterfeit, perverseness, and adulteration that once overwhelmed people with bondages, torments, and controls, as with that certain man Simon who used sorcery and bewitching tactics to enslave people as in – Acts 8:9-26. 

It’s within the same scenario and similarity that Philip the evangelist PREACHED, TAUGHT, and MINISTERED the gospel, that Apostle Paul could stand to admonish and exhort the Corinthians to awaken them back to their original foundation and stand in the faith in their salvation – which came to them as a consequence of the GOSPEL he PREACHED TAUGHT and MINISTERED to them. He reminded them through the process that brought them to SALVATION by the gospel, laying it out in such didactic order for them to know, by laying the steps of the Gospel on which he stands, and on which he PREACHED, TAUGHT, and MINISTERED to them, before they get carried away as some had already then, and even as some do in today’s world. 1 Corinthians 15:1-11. 

Therefore I say to you, that in this MONTH OF JUNE, for your onward and upward trajectory in Christ Jesus, it’s time to stop pursuing the chaff in order to obtain PROSPERITY, DELIVERANCE, PEACE, SECURITY, SAFETY, HEALTH and such like, and more, outside the GOSPEL that brings about these constituents of SALVATION. For all these in pursuit are the results of SALVATION, which is the consequence of the PREACHING, TEACHING and MINISTERING of the Gospel of Christ Jesus for you to LIVE upon. And any other process is sorcery and bewitching – leading to spells, control, self-hype, contention, and evil in all manner of mannerism and behaviour. Philippians 1:15-18.  

“Some indeed PREACH Christ even of ENVY and STRIFE; and some also of GOOD WILL: 16 the one PREACH Christ of CONTENTION, NOT SINCERELY, supposing to ADD affliction to my bonds: 17 but the OTHER of LOVE, knowing that I am set for the DEFENCE of the GOSPEL. 18 What then? notwithstanding, every way, whether in PRETENCE, or in TRUTH, Christ is PREACHED; and I therein do rejoice, yea, and will rejoice” 

Therefore, you need to stop running around chasing chaff and looking for a DELIVERANCE MINISTER who will DELIVER you through their so-called special ministry of “DELIVERANCE, PROPHETIC, PROSPERITY and PRAYER HOUSE SERVICES,” and such like. All these they do to exploit your vulnerability, ignorance, and the stupidity and foolishness that comes from not knowing and understanding that your access to such things is in GOSPEL – as the means to the end – in order to hold you captive. That will result in you buying their specially ‘anointed’ BOTTLE OF OIL, HANDKERCHIEF, HOLY WATER, SPECIAL BATHING SOAP AND CREAM, JERUSALEM SPRING, FEET OF JESUS SAND, SALT OF GALILEE, BLESSED STICKERS and RED CARDS, and many such like despicable physical items they depict as means of God. These above mentioned, and others, are their craft and cunning tactics to extort money and material things from you through their own made-up ‘God-will’ to bless you or answer your needs and desires – which contradicts the GOSPEL that brings about wholesome SALVATION to you. 

“Giving thanks to the Father, who has QUALIFIED us to share in the inheritance of the saints (God’s people) in the Light. 13 For He has RESCUED (DELIVERED) us and has DRAWN (RECONCILED) us to Himself from the DOMINION of darkness, and has TRANSFERRED (TRANSLATED) us to the kingdom of His beloved Son, 14 in whom we have REDEMPTION (SALVATION) [because of His sacrifice, resulting in] the FORGIVENESS of our sins [and the CANCELLATION of sins’ penalty]” Colossians 1:12-14 Amplified. 

Know this day that it’s only the GOSPEL – which is by the PREACHING, TEACHING and MINISTERING of Christ Jesus, who is the WORD of God of the GOSPEL, Who IS the POWER of God – to bring about the fulness and wholesome SALVATION to you and all humanity alike, irrespective. 

AND I SAY AGAIN THAT THE GOSPEL – IS THE POWER OF GOD, FOR YOUR SALVATION. PREACH IT – TEACH IT – MINISTER IT AND LIVE IT – FOR THEREIN IS YOUR SALVATION IN RIGHTEOUSNESS! 

SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK ABOUT IT! 

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT: 

“For I am not ashamed of THE GOSPEL of Christ: for it is THE POWER of God unto SALVATION to everyone that believeth; to THE JEW first, and also to THE GREEK. 17 For therein is the righteousness of God revealed from faith to faith: as it is written, The just shall live by faith” Romans 1:16-17. 

“For THE PREACHING of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is THE POWER of God. 19 For it is written, I will destroy THE WISDOM of the wise and will bring to nothing the understanding of the prudent. 20 Where is the wise? Where is the scribe? Where is the disputer of this world? hath not God made foolish THE WISDOM of this world? 21 For after that in THE WISDOM of God the world by wisdom knew not God, it pleased God by the foolishness of PREACHING to save them that believe. 22 For THE JEWS require a sign, and THE GREEKS seek after wisdom: 23 but we PREACH Christ crucified, unto the JEWS a stumblingblock, and unto the GREEKS foolishness; 24 but unto them which are called, both JEWS and GREEKS, Christ THE POWER of God, and THE WISDOM of God” 1 Corinthians 1:18-24. 

“Therefore they that were scattered abroad went every where PREACHING THE WORD. 5 Then Philip went down to the city of Samaria, and PREACHED Christ unto them. 6 And the people with one accord gave heed unto those things which Philip spake, HEARING and seeing the miracles which he did. 7. For unclean spirits, crying with loud voices, came out of many that were possessed with them: and many taken with palsies, and that were lame, were HEALED. 8 And there was GREAT JOY in that city” Acts 8:4-8. 

“Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you THE GOSPEL which I PREACHED unto you, which also ye have RECEIVED, and wherein ye STAND; 2 by which also ye are SAVED, if ye keep in memory what I PREACHED unto you, unless ye have BELIEVED in vain. 3 For I DELIVERED unto you first of all that which I also RECEIVED, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; 4 and that he was BURIED, and that he ROSE again the third day according to the scriptures: 5 and that he was seen of Cephas, then of the twelve: 6 after that, he was seen of above five hundred brethren at once; of whom the greater part remain unto this present, but some are fallen asleep. 7 After that, he was seen of James; then of all the apostles. 8 And last of all he was seen of me also, as of one born out of due time. 9 For I am the least of the apostles, that am not meet to be called an apostle, because I persecuted the church of God. 10 But by the grace of God I am what I am: and his grace which was bestowed upon me was not in vain; but I laboured more abundantly than they all: yet not I, but the grace of God which was with me. 11 Therefore whether it were I or they, so we PREACH, and so ye BELIEVED” 1 Corinthians 15:1-11. 

“And Jesus went about all the CITIES and VILLAGES, TEACHING in their synagogues, and PREACHING the gospel of the kingdom, and HEALING every sickness and every disease among the people” Matthew 9:35. 

“And he came to Nazareth, where he had been brought up: and, as his custom was, he went into the synagogue on the sabbath day, and stood up for to read. 17 And there was delivered unto him the book of the prophet Esaias. And when he had opened the book, he found the place where it was written, 18 The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he hath anointed me to PREACH THE GOSPEL to the poor; he hath sent me to HEAL the brokenhearted, to PREACH deliverance to the captives, and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty them that are bruised, 19 to PREACH the acceptable year of the Lord. 20 And he closed the book, and he gave it again to the minister, and sat down. And the eyes of all them that were in the synagogue were fastened on him. 21 And he began to say unto them, This day is this SCRIPTURE fulfilled in your ears. 22 And all bare him WITNESS, and wondered at the GRACIOUS WORDS which proceeded out of his MOUTH. And they said, Is not this Joseph’s son?” Luke 4:16-22. 

“Even as Abraham believed God, and it was ACCOUNTED to him for righteousness. 7. Know ye therefore that they which ARE of faith, the same are the children of Abraham. 8 And the scripture, foreseeing that God would JUSTIFY the heathen through faith, PREACHED before THE GOSPEL unto Abraham, saying, In thee shall all nations be blessed. 9 So then they which be of faith ARE blessed with faithful Abraham” Galatians 3:6-9. 

SUMMARY: 

the message is about the Gospel of Christ Jesus as the only power of God for complete salvation and righteousness, with a strong warning to stop chasing counterfeits and substitutes outside of it. 

KEY POINTS 

  1. THE GOSPEL IS THE POWER OF GOD FOR SALVATION 
    the Gospel is the power of God unto salvation for everyone who believes. Jesus Christ is that power and the Word of God. in the Gospel, the righteousness of God is revealed. it is the answer to every human need — yesterday, today and forever. Romans 1:16-17; Hebrews 13:8.
  2. SALVATION IN NEW CREATION IS TOTAL
    Salvation is redemption. It includes health, peace, security, prosperity, deliverance, and more. These are results of salvation, not separate pursuits. they become real only through preaching, teaching and living the Gospel. Colossians 1:12-14.
  3. THE CRISIS: BLINDNESS AND SUBSTITUTES
    Many have been blinded from the Gospel and now chase religion, creeds, culture and denominational rules. This leads to bondage. people pursue the benefits of salvation without the Gospel. Romans 16:17-18.
  4. REJECT COUNTERFEITS — JUNE CHARGE
    Stop seeking “deliverance ministers” and special ministries. stop buying “anointed” oil, handkerchiefs, holy water, stickers, red cards and similar items. These exploit and control you. They contradict the Gospel that brings true salvation. Philippians 1:15-18.
  5. BIBLICAL PATTERN: PREACH THE WORD
    Philip preached Christ in Samaria and people were delivered and healed. Simon, the sorcerer’s control, ended. Paul laid the Gospel foundation for Corinthians. Jesus preached the Gospel and healed the sick. as Christ is preached, salvation meets every need. Acts 8:4-26; 1 Corinthians 15:1-11; Luke 4:18-19.
  6. THE GOSPEL REVEALS RIGHTEOUSNESS AND LIBERATES
    The Gospel is Jesus Christ, not things. by the Gospel we receive God’s righteousness. It silences deception and bondage. The Gospel still speaks today for complete liberation in God through Christ Jesus. 

CALL TO ACTION 

FROM THIS MONTH OF JUNE, stop pursuing substitutes outside the Gospel. only the Gospel, through Christ Jesus who is the Word and power of God, brings full salvation. the Gospel is the power of God for your salvation. preach it, teach it, minister it and live it.

THE GOSPEL OF SALVATION

THE GOSPEL OF SALVATION: THE POWER OF GOD THAT CHANGES ALL THINGS – BOTH THE CHANGEABLE AND THE UNCHANGEABLE! 

“For I am not ASHAMED of the GOSPEL of Christ: for it is the POWER OF GOD unto SALVATION to everyone that BELIEVETH; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek. 17 For therein is the RIGHTEOUSNESS of God REVEALED from FAITH to FAITH: as it is written, The JUST shall LIVE by FAITH” Romans 1:16-17 

SALVATION of men, which is FRUITFULNESS in the SPIRIT, is the most awesome essence of THE GOSPEL. It’s our global, inescapable and supreme task as God’s ambassadors in Christ Jesus’ stead. It’s high to live it out daily, to populate the heavens and depopulate hell, advancing the Kingdom cause of our God and in keeping the ENEMY and COHORTS at bay. 

When last did you, in passion and compassion, share the GOSPEL with your unsaved friend, family member, neighbour, colleague – those you do life and show your godly living to, time and again? Make it a new dawn for you to share this precious GOSPEL faith and fellowship with those you care about and are reachable – start with them. The salvation of a soul is costly, and no amount of earthly wealth or possessions can quantify and qualify the redemption of a soul. Only the gospel can – and will ALWAYS redeem a soul. Give it a go today.  

SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK.

“GO, STAND and SPEAK in the temple to the people ALL THE WORDS of this life” Acts 5:20. 

“Yea, so have I strived to PREACH THE GOSPEL, not where Christ was named, lest I should build upon another man’s foundation: 21 but as it is written, To whom he was not spoken of, they shall see: and they that have not heard shall understand” Romans 15:20-21. 

“They that TRUST in their WEALTH, and BOAST themselves in the MULTITUDE of their RICHES; 7 NONE OF THEM CAN BY ANY MEANS REDEEM HIS BROTHER, nor give to God a RANSOM for him: 8 (for the REDEMPTION of their SOUL IS PRECIOUS, and it ceaseth for ever:) 9 that he should still live for ever, and not see corruption. 10 For he seeth that wise men die, likewise the fool and the brutish person perish, and leave their wealth to others . . .” Psalms 49:6-12. 

“And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All POWER is given unto me in heaven and in earth. 19 GO YE THEREFORE, and TEACH ALL NATIONS, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: 20 TEACHING them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world. Amen” Matthew 28:18-20. 

“And he said unto them, GO YE INTO ALL THE WORLD, and PREACH the GOSPEL to every creature. 16 He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned. 17 And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues; 18 they shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover. 19 So then after the Lord had spoken unto them, he was received up into heaven, and sat on the right hand of God. 20 And they went forth, and PREACHED EVERY WHERE, the Lord working with them, and CONFIRMING THE WORD with signs following. Amen” Mark 16:15-20. 

“And Jesus went about all the cities and villages, TEACHING in their synagogues, and PREACHING the GOSPEL of the kingdom, and HEALING every sickness and every disease among the people” Matthew 9:35. 

SUMMARY: 

The message emphasises the Gospel of Salvation as the power of God that changes lives – impacting both the changeable and unchangeable aspects of life. It highlights the importance of sharing this gospel with others as God’s ambassadors in Christ Jesus.

THE KINGDOM GOSPEL

THE KINGDOM GOSPEL: GIVES SALVATION UNTO THE ENDS OF THE EARTH!

“For I am not ashamed of the GOSPEL OF CHRIST: for it is THE POWER of God UNTO SALVATION to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek. 17 For therein is the RIGHTEOUSNESS of God revealed from faith to faith: as it is written, The just shall live by faith” Romans 1:16-17.

The Gospel of Christ Jesus, it’s the POWER of God that brings about the SALVATION of all mankind for today and tomorrow. How relevant it is today than ever before, in the midst of the turbulence, confusion, distrust, breakdown, hunger, chaos, wars, pandemic and such like, that have raven our world today.

And SALVATION in this context is not necessarily only about just being born of God into His Kingdom; but it’s also about matters of life and not limited to the following: PEACE, SOUND MIND, HEALTH, PROSPERITY, HEALING, SECURITY, SAFETY, DELIVERANCE, RESTORATION, STRENGHT, LIVELIHOOD, HEALTHY RELATIONSHIP and Such like the MORE.

So, the preaching of the GOSPEL is the preaching of THE WORD of God, which is the preaching of Christ Jesus, who is THE WORD, the GOOD NEWS of human redemption. The good news is that man’s debt and eternal judgement is everted because Christ Jesus has paid for it by the sacrifice He made to take on the human condemnation – which is the consequence of sin, so that man can be JUSTIFIED before God instead of facing the Judgement of condemnations; and thereafter man can then live in FREEDOM from sin and it’s effect, in an onward and upward trajectory toward God in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK!

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“And THIS GOSPEL OF THE KINGDOM shall be PREACHED in all the world for a WITNESS unto ALL NATIONS; and then shall the end come” Matthew 24:14.

“But ye shall receive POWER, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be WITNESSES unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judæa, and in Samaria, AND UNTO THE UTTERMOST PART OF THE EARTH” Acts 1:8.

“Yea, so have I strived to PREACH THE GOSPEL, not where Christ was named, lest I should build upon another man’s foundation: 21 but as it is written, To whom he was not spoken of, they shall see: and they that have not heard shall understand” Romans 15:20-21.

“For I am not ashamed of the GOSPEL OF CHRIST: for it is THE POWER of God UNTO SALVATION to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek. 17 For therein is the RIGHTEOUSNESS of God revealed from faith to faith: as it is written, The just shall live by faith” Romans 1:16-17.

“. . . 4 Therefore they that were scattered abroad went every where PREACHING THE WORD. 5 Then Philip went down to the city of Samaria, and PREACHED CHRIST unto them. 6 And the people with one accord gave heed unto those things which Philip spake, hearing and seeing the miracles which he did. 7 For unclean spirits, crying with loud voice, came out of many that were possessed with them: and many taken with palsies, and that were lame, were healed. 8 And there was great joy in that city” Acts 8:1-8.

“Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new. 18 And all things are of God, who hath reconciled us to himself by Jesus Christ, and hath given to us the ministry of reconciliation; 19 to wit, that God was in Christ, reconciling the world unto himself, not imputing their trespasses unto them; and hath committed unto us the word of reconciliation. 20 Now then we are AMBASSADORS for Christ, as though God did beseech you by us: we pray you in Christ’s stead, be ye reconciled to God. 21 For he hath made him to BE SIN FOR US, who KNEW NO SIN; that we might be MADE the RIGHTEOUSNESS of God in him” 2 Corinthians 5:17-21.

“There is therefore now NO CONDEMNATION to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit. 2 For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus hath made me free from the law of sin and death” Romans 8:1-2.

“Therefore being JUSTIFIED BY FAITH, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ: 2 by whom also we have ACCESS BY FAITH into this GRACE wherein we STAND, and rejoice in hope of the glory of God” Romans 5:1-2.

“It was for this FREEDOM that Christ set us free [completely liberating us]; therefore keep standing firm and do not be subject again to a yoke of slavery [which you once removed]” Galatians 5:1-2 Amplified.

“If the Son therefore shall make you FREE, ye shall be FREE indeed” John 8:36.

AUGUST YOUR LIFE BY GOD’S ENABLING POWER

AUGUST YOUR LIFE BY GOD’S ENABLING POWER: JESUS DID, SO WERE THE FIRST AND EARLY APOSTLES AND FELLOW BELIEVER’S!

“And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the CALLED according to HIS PURPOSE . . .” Romans 8:28-30.

The power of God is the enabling of God to accomplish His PURPOSE in your life. Hence, a PURPOSELESS living lifestyle, can’t receive God’s POWER to enable the actualisation of the set out divine PURPOSE of God – in the individual – both in life and godliness, in Christ Jesus stead.

“. . . 11 in whom also we have OBTAINED an inheritance, being PREDESTINATED according to the PURPOSE of him who worketh all things after the COUNSEL of his own will . . .” Ephesians 1:3-12.

Jesus Christ, our Saviour and Lord, live for God’s given CAUSE and PURPOSE in humanity to accomplish God’s intent for humanity. And for that PURPOSE to be accomplished He was not only ANOINTED with the Holy Spirit, He was also EMPOWERED by the Holy Spirit, to fulfill that PURPOSE under God. 1 John 3:8; John 18:37; Luke 4:1-2, 14. Thus, indicating that Christ Jesus in humanity, in order for Him to fulfill God’s PURPOSE, and be able to bear WITNESS of the Gospel truth, could only have accomplished it all by the given POWER of God for that purpose. John 18:37 (John 5:31-33, 36-37; John 8:18; John 10:25).

Just know today for sure and assuredly, that God’s POWER is not a GIVEN for NOTHING. It’s for the PURPOSE of being a WITNESS of God, to humanity in all capacity of doing life and living godly in Christ Jesus stead. These places are thus but not limited: marriage, family, ministry, career, business, enterprise, relationship, leadership and such like. In all, it’s about being God’s representative and ambassador with the message of reconciliation to humanity through every avenue of doing life and living godly in Christ Jesus stead. Acts 1:8; Matthew 24:14; 2 Corinthians 5:17-20; Ephesians 6:20.

The Disciples of Jesus Christ that turns Apostles, live to bear WITNESS of the Gospel of God in Christ Jesus, by the enabling POWER of God in His grace, that was bestowed upon them. Long before Christ Jesus was done of His humanity cause and purpose, He did inform and assured them and to us of today, of the promised POWER of God toward them and us of today, which will give the enabling of fulfilling God’s PURPOSE in humanity for any that comes to Him. Luke 24:49; Acts 1:8; Acts 4:33.

In summary, one can say that the essence of God’s POWER in an individual Christian, is to fulfil God’s PURPOSE in the individual, in order to ensure God’s BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead. Romans 8:28-30. Hence, if you seek or are seeking after God’s enabling POWER in your life, ensure you’ve resolved the God’s PURPOSE in your life, otherwise you get NOTHING from God, but the counterfeit, adulteration and falsehood, just as many that have been BEWITCHED into SORCERIES as Simon of Acts 8:9-24, who goes about claiming as being attributed with the great POWER of God, in self-denial and self-deception to himself and his followers.

I hereby employ you to – AUGUST YOUR LIFE BY GOD’S ENABLING POWER IN CHRIST JESUS, as Jesus Christ DID experience in humanity, and so were, THE FIRST AND EARLY APOSTLES and FELLOW BELIEVER’S, in Christ Jesus stead did experience. Amen.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“How God ANOINTED Jesus of Nazareth with the HOLY GHOST and with POWER: who went about doing good, and HEALING all that were OPPRESSED of the devil; for God was WITH him” Acts 10:38.

“And Jesus being full of the Holy Ghost returned from Jordan, and was LED by the Spirit into the wilderness, 2 being forty days tempted of the devil. And in those days he did eat nothing: and when they were ended, he afterward hungered. . . 14 And Jesus RETURNED IN THE POWER of the Spirit into Galilee: and there went out a fame of him through all the region round about . . . 18 The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he hath ANOINTED me to preach the GOSPEL to the poor; he hath sent me to HEAL the brokenhearted, to PREACH deliverance to the captives, and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty them that are bruised, 19 to preach the acceptable year of the Lord . . .” Luke 4:1-22.

“Pilate therefore said unto him, Art thou a king then? Jesus answered, Thou sayest that I am a king. To this end was I born, and for this CAUSE came I into the world, that I should bear WITNESS unto the truth. Every one that is of the truth heareth my voice” John 18:37 (John 5:31-33, 36-37; John 8:18; John 10:25).

“And, behold, I send the PROMISE of my Father upon you: but tarry ye in the city of Jerusalem, until ye be endued with POWER from on high” Luke 24:49.

“But ye shall receive POWER, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be WITNESSES unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judæa, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth” Acts 1:8.

“And this GOSPEL of the kingdom shall be PREACHED in all the world for a WITNESS unto all nations; and then shall the end come” Matthew 24:14.

“But when the Comforter is come, whom I will send unto you from the Father, even the Spirit of truth, which proceedeth from the Father, he shall testify of me: 27 and ye also shall bear WITNESS, because ye have been with me from the beginning” John 15:26-27.

“Then Peter said, Silver and gold have I none; BUT SUCH AS I HAVE GIVE I THEE: In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth rise up and walk” Acts 3:6.

“And with great POWER gave the apostles WITNESS of the resurrection of the Lord Jesus: and great GRACE was upon them all” Acts 4:33.

“There was a man sent from God, whose name was John. 7 The same came for a WITNESS, to bear WITNESS of the Light, that all men through him might believe. 8 He was not that Light, but was sent to bear WITNESS of that Light . . . 15 John bare WITNESS of him, and cried, saying, This was he of whom I spake, He that cometh after me is preferred before me: for he was before me” John 1:6-8, 15.

“And we know that ALL THINGS WORK TOGETHER for good to them that love God, to them who are the CALLED according to his PURPOSE. 29 For whom he did FOREKNOW, he also did PREDESTINATE to be CONFORMED to the image of his Son, that he might be the firstborn among many brethren. 30 Moreover whom he did PREDESTINATE, them he also CALLED: and whom he called, them he also JUSTIFIED: and whom he justified, them he also GLORIFIED” Romans 8:28-30.

AUGUST YOUR LIFE BY GOD’S ENABLING POWER

AUGUST YOUR LIFE BY GOD’S ENABLING POWER: CHRIST JESUS IS THE POWER OF GOD AND THE WISDOM OF GOD!

“And Jesus answering said unto them, Do ye not therefore ERR, because ye KNOW NOT THE SCRIPTURES, neither THE POWER OF GOD?” Mark 12:24.

“. . . 24 but unto them which are called, both Jews and Greeks, CHRIST THE POWER OF GOD, and THE WISDOM OF GOD . . .” 1 Corinthians 1:18-31.

When person’s or rather people don’t know the genuine POWER of God that is of Christ Jesus stead, they give into SORCERIES and BEWITCHING. And over the years many have found themselves into such bondages as the Scriptures says in Hosea 4:6 and Isaiah 5:13-15, that my people perish for lack of knowledge and had become prey and captives and have gone further into captivity for lack of knowledge. And I know exactly what it all means.

It’s for this lack of knowledge that a whole city of Samaria in Bible days was held in captivity and BEWITCHED with SORCERIES because a man called Simon and not Christ Jesus, was considered to be the great POWER of God. And multitude became victims and prey to this outrageous acts of SORCERIES and BEWITCHING by a man that held them as PREY and in CAPTIVITY for a very long, long time.

Take a look today and picture, how many have taken similar seating position in many supposed believer’s life by the accordance they give to these fallible men as to have the great POWER of God than to Christ Jesus in the fulness of the activities been carried out about them. And unfortunately, like Simon, these fallible men allowed these applaud of what they are not, to happen and keeping happening because they know that the people are BEWITCHED by their SORCERIES acts knowingly and unknowingly.

It’s for these acts and route of attributing the POWER of God that is of Christ Jesus to men, that cause God to let King Herod to be eaten up with worms when he allowed himself to be consumed by the applaud of men in Acts 12:20-24. That single act of God as happened also to Simon in Acts 8:18-24 with sharp and heavy handed rebuke, for wanting to buy the Holy Spirit with money in order to maintain his status, was needful then and more today, so that the  genuine POWER and the WORD of God which is of Christ Jesus, could multiply in the hearts of men rather than the falsehood of these fallible men that’s BEWITCHING by SORCERIES, the creation of God as it was of Simon of Samaria.

Therefore, think and ponder today, if you are one of those attributing the POWER of God which is of Christ Jesus to a man, thereby leading them to errors; also, if you are one of the men as Simon and king Herod, receiving the accordance of the POWER of God, which is of Christ Jesus as yours, in order to maintain and keep the status of your pride and arrogance, in bewitching the people with that act, practice and scheme that you are using which is unknown to your followers.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“. . . 22 For the Jews require a sign, and the Greeks seek after wisdom: 23 but we preach Christ crucified, unto the Jews a stumblingblock, and unto the Greeks foolishness; 24 but unto them which are called, both Jews and Greeks, CHRIST THE POWER OF GOD, and THE WISDOM OF GOD . . . 30 But of him are ye in Christ Jesus, who of God is MADE UNTO US WISDOM, and righteousness, and sanctification, and redemption: 31 that, according as it is written, He that glorieth, let him glory in the Lord” 1 Corinthians 1:18-31.

“For I am not ashamed of the GOSPEL of Christ: for it is the POWER of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek. 17 For therein is the righteousness of God REVEALED from faith to faith: as it is written, The just shall LIVE by faith” Romans 1:16-17

“Jesus answered and said unto them, Ye do ERR, NOT KNOWING THE SCRIPTURES, nor THE POWER OF GOD” Matthew 22:29.

“And Jesus answering said unto them, Do ye not therefore ERR, because ye KNOW NOT THE SCRIPTURES, neither THE POWER OF GOD?” Mark 12:24.

“. . . 9 But there was a certain man, called Simon, which beforetime in the same city used SORCERY, and BEWITCHED the people of Samaria, giving out that himself was some great one: 10 to whom they all gave heed, from the least to the greatest, saying, This man is the GREAT POWER of God. 11 And to him they had regard, because that of long time he had BEWITCHED them with SORCERIES. 12 But when they believed Philip preaching the things concerning the kingdom of God, and the name of Jesus Christ, they were baptized, both men and women. 13 Then Simon himself BELIEVED also: and when he was baptized, he continued with Philip, and wondered, beholding the miracles and signs which were done . . .” Acts 8:1-24.

“Let every soul be subject unto the higher powers. For there is no POWER but of God: the POWERS that be are ORDAINED of God. 2 Whosoever therefore resisteth the power, resisteth the ordinance of God: and they that resist shall receive to themselves damnation. 3 For rulers are not a terror to good works, but to the evil. Wilt thou then not be afraid of the power? do that which is good, and thou shalt have praise of the same: 4 for he is the minister of God to thee for good. But if thou do that which is evil, be afraid; for he beareth not the sword in vain: for he is the minister of God, a revenger to execute wrath upon him that doeth evil. 5 Wherefore ye must needs be subject, not only for wrath, but also for conscience sake . . .” Romans 13:1-10.

“And Herod was highly displeased with them of Tyre and Sidon: but they came with one accord to him, and, having made Blastus the king’s chamberlain their friend, desired peace; because their country was nourished by the king’s country. 21 And upon a set day Herod, ARRAYED in royal apparel, sat upon his throne, and made an ORATION unto them. 22 And the people gave a shout, saying, It is the VOICE of a god, and not of a man. 23 And immediately the angel of the Lord smote him, because he GAVE NOT God the glory: and he was eaten of worms, and gave up the ghost. 24 But THE WORD of God GREW and MULTIPLIED” Acts 12:20-24.

“MY PEOPLE ARE DESTROYED FOR LACK OF KNOWLEDGE: because thou hast REJECTED KNOWLEDGE, I will also REJECT thee, that thou shalt be NO PRIEST to me: seeing thou hast forgotten the law of thy God, I will also forget thy children” Hosea 4:6.

“Therefore MY PEOPLE ARE GONE INTO CAPTIVITY, because they have NO KNOWLEDGE: and their HONOURABLE men are FAMISHED, and their multitude dried up with thirst. 14 Therefore hell hath enlarged herself, and opened her mouth without measure: and their glory, and their multitude, and their pomp, and he that rejoiceth, shall descend into it. 15 And the mean man shall be brought down, and the mighty man shall be humbled, and the eyes of the lofty shall be humbled” Isaiah 5:13-15.

THE GOSPEL – IS NOT A DOCTRINE

By Leave a Comment

THE GOSPEL – IS NOT A DOCTRINE: IT’S THE POWER AND WISDOM OF GOD – TO HUMAN SALVATION!
 
“For the JEWS require a SIGN, and the GREEKS seek after WISDOM: 23 but we PREACH Christ CRUCIFIED, unto the JEWS a STUMBLINGBLOCK, and unto the GREEKS FOOLISHNESS; 24 but unto THEM which ARE CALLED, both JEWS and GREEKS, Christ the POWER of God, and the WISDOM of God” 1 Corinthians 1:22-24.
 
The GOSPEL is the good news goodness about the CROSS, the CROSS is about CHRIST JESUS, and CHRIST JESUS is the POWER and WISDOM of God, and the POWER and WISDOM of God is about human SALVATION – and NOTHING ELSE and NOTHING MORE; otherwise, it’s human BONDAGES, DISTORTION , ADULTERATION and PERVERSION. The Gospel is to PREACH Christ Jesus, who is THE WORD made manifest in the flesh, that brings about COMPLETE and WHOLESOME REDEMPTION of God to all of mankind that looks up to Him. If you must PREACH, TEACH and MINISTER THE GOSPEL then ensure you PREACH, TEACH and MINISTER THE WORD – that is to PREACH, TEACH and MINISTER CHRIST JESUS, then THE WORD which is CHRIST JESUS, the SAVIOUR and LORD, will bring about human SALVATION – the ANSWERS to all human QUEST and CONTROVERSIES.
 
“And without CONTROVERSY great is the MYSTERY of GODLINESS: God was MANIFEST in the FLESH, JUSTIFIED in the Spirit, seen of angels, PREACHED unto the Gentiles, BELIEVED on in the world, RECEIVED up into glory” 1 Timothy 3:16.
 
“In the beginning was THE WORD, and THE WORD was with God, and THE WORD was God. 2 The same was in the beginning with God. 3 All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made. 4 In him was life; and the life was the light of men. 5 And the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not . . . 14 And THE WORD was made FLESH, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth” John 1:1-5, 14.
Therefore, if the Gospel you are hearing or listening to, or receiving, does not LIBERATE you in Christ Jesus stead, throw it into the bin – discard it, I mean seriously, otherwise, you will end up in more BONDAGES than you anticipated. Your EARS and well being is not made for garbage and as a trash can for ERRONEOUS information but only meant PURELY for the GOSPEL SAYINGS of our God [Proverbs 4:20-23]. The Gospel gives life and meaning to a gracious and graceful living. The GOSPEL brings ABOUT the POWER of God unto human – DELIVERANCE, HEALING, PEACE, TRANQUILITY, SOUNDNESS, VICTORY, PROSPERITY, TRIUMPH, MERCY, FORGIVENESS, JOY AND SUCH LIKE MORE.
 
“Therefore they that were scattered abroad went every where PREACHING THE WORD. 5 Then Philip went down to the city of Samaria, and PREACHED CHRIST unto them. 6 And the people with ONE ACCORD GAVE HEED unto those things which Philip spake, HEARING and SEEING the MIRACLES which he did. 7 For unclean spirits, crying with loud voice, came out of many that were possessed with them: and many taken with palsies, and that were lame, were healed. 8 AND THERE WAS GREAT JOY IN THAT CITY” Acts 8:4-8.
 
The Apostles, who were the forerunner of the Christ Jesus as Disciples, did nothing but PREACHED, TAUGHT and MINISTERED the WORD – ministered Christ Jesus as their sole and only message that transforms all who believes in the Gospel [Acts 8:4-8; 1 Corinthians 15:1-11]. There wasn’t any form to tolerate the GOSPEL adulteration with DOCTRINAL and DENOMINATIONAL sects spirits. For by the GOSPEL, in two years plus, Apostle was able to reach out to the entire Asia of his days, changing and transforming lives toward God and His Christ and not to themselves or religion or denomination as we see today. [Acts 19:10-12].
 
For the GOSPEL is not a RELIGION, not a DOCTRINE, not a DENOMINATION and more so, not a PROPHECY awaiting to happen to you, nor is it a TRADITIONAL or RELIGIOUS dogmas, creeds, bylaws and philosophy to adhere toward. The Gospel is the life, the very life of Father God, in Christ Jesus, by the Holy Spirit, in us. [1 John 4:4-6; Acts 17:28; 1 John 5:7]. As such, FLEE from every contrary and live in the liberty wherein Christ Jesus had MADE you WHOLE and FREE in Father God’s BLESSEDNESS. Amen.
 
“Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the GOSPEL which I PREACHED unto you, which also ye have RECEIVED, and wherein ye stand; 2 by which also ye ARE SAVED, if ye keep in memory what I PREACHED unto you, unless ye have BELIEVED in vain. 3 For I DELIVERED unto you first of all that which I also RECEIVED, how that Christ DIED for our sins according to the scriptures; 4 and that he was BURIED, and that he ROSE again the third day according to the scriptures . . . 11 Therefore whether it were I or they, so we PREACH, and so ye BELIEVED” 1 Corinthians 15:1-11.
 
And the GOSPEL have been PREACHED to Abraham concerning you by God for over 400 years long before the law came into effect and more so before the days of kings and prophets came into operation. Thus indicating the power and wisdom of God in redemption concerning you in every respect as it’s written:
“Even as Abraham believed God, and it was accounted to him for righteousness. 7 Know ye therefore that they which ARE of faith, the same are the children of Abraham. 8 And the scripture, foreseeing that God would JUSTIFY the heathen through faith, PREACHED before the GOSPEL unto Abraham, saying, In thee shall ALL NATIONS BE BLESSED. 9 So then they which be of faith ARE blessed with faithful Abraham” Galatians 3:6-9.
 
“Now the Lord had said unto Abram, Get thee out of thy country, and from thy kindred, and from thy father’s house, unto a land that I will shew thee: 2 and I will make of thee a great nation, and I will bless thee, and make thy name great; and thou shalt be a blessing: 3 and I will bless them that bless thee, and curse him that curseth thee: and in thee shall all families of the earth be blessed” Genesis 12:1-3.
 
It’s time to ensure you live by the GOSPEL and not by religion, doctrine, denomination creeds and bye-laws, traditional dogmas and sentiments. For the GOSPEL is not in fragmentation. It’s whole, complete and total embraces all about our REDEMPTION ACTS and PROCESSES, and our REDEMPTION RIGHTS and PRIVILEGES. And there’s only one GOSPEL of Christ Jesus [Philippians 1:27; 1 Thessalonians 3:2; 1 Corinthians 1:30] and not in any other in fragments as many do today by depicting themselves as being the MINISTER of various sects as having the MINISTRY of – SANCTIFICATION, HOLINESS, RIGHTEOUSNESS, FAITH, JUSTIFICATION, DELIVERANCE, PROSPERITY and such like. There’s no one single place in the new creation EPISTLES where the Apostle’s fragmented the Gospel into small unit ministry by any form of DOCTRINAL and DENOMINATIONAL sects settings and fragmentations of the GOSPEL of Christ Jesus.
 
Therefore, PREACH the GOSPEL! TEACH the GOSPEL!! and MINISTER the GOSPEL!!! Do this in wholeness with none of the fragment and fragmentations that’s depict as GOSPEL when indeed it leads to bondages by the man-made DOCTRINAL and DENOMINATIONAL inclination as ministry and calling. Let Christ only be the GOSPEL – [Philippians 1:15-18; Galatians 1:6-9].
 
And you don’t need DELIVERANCE, you need the GOSPEL. The Gospel brings about deliverance – to set the captives free. And Christ Jesus, who is the GOSPEL is the deliverer that sets the captives free and has DELIVERED us and translated us into the Kingdom of God by the Gospel we’ve heard [Luke 4:18 (14-22); Colossians 1:12-14]. And when you hear the GOSPEL and believe the GOSPEL, your deliverance is come by the power of the Gospel [Romans 1:16-17]. Only by the Gospel message can deliverance comes to any – any else it’s a mistaken [erroneous] message. [Matthew 22:29].

May God cause you to abound by the Gospel in order to have the fulness of His BLESSEDNESS in REDEMPTION in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

NOT ASHAMED OF THE GOSPEL

NOT ASHAMED OF THE GOSPEL: THEN GO FORTH TO – PREACH – TEACH – AND MINISTER – THE GOSPEL TO ANY!

Are you ASHAMED or EMBOLDENED to PREACH, TEACH AND MINISTER the GOSPEL to the unreached, untouched and unsaved within your family, community and environment? Do you know the cost of a soul?

“. . . .They that TRUST in their WEALTH, and BOAST themselves in the multitude of their RICHES; 7 none of them can by any means REDEEM his brother, nor GIVE to God a ransom for him, 8 (for the REDEMPTION of their soul is PRECIOUS, and it ceaseth for ever:) 9 that he should still LIVE for ever, and not see corruption . . . “ Psalms 49:1-20 Amplified.

The cost of a soul is not qualified or quantified by any de facto CURRENCY in humanity and nothing on earth can be equivalent to amount to the cost of that soul near you, that might needs the GOSPEL while you yet passed by as if it doesn’t matter.

There’s NO contention, controversy, prejudice and dissimulation [HYPOCRISY] in the GOSPEL – and that’s what makes it unique in all in making difference in all. For the GOSPEL is not a doctrine to be taught. It is the enabling power of God that gives HOPE, FAITH and LOVE that everyone needs to do life and live godly by God in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

“For I am not ashamed of THE GOSPEL of Christ: for it is THE POWER of God unto SALVATION to every one that believeth; to THE JEW first, and also to THE GREEK. 17 For therein is the righteousness of God revealed from faith to faith: as it is written, The just shall live by faith” Romans 1:16-17.

“And without CONTROVERSY great is the mystery of GODLINESS: God was MANIFEST in the flesh, JUSTIFIED in the Spirit, SEEN of angels, PREACHED unto the Gentiles, BELIEVED on in the world, RECEIVED up into glory” 1 Timothy 3:16.

Ensure your day to day by the Gospel. It’s the hallmark of a purpose-driven with God, to live a meaningful and fulfilling life in the grace.

And the eyes of all them that were in the synagogue were fastened on him. 21 And he began to say unto them, This day is this SCRIPTURE fulfilled in your ears. 22 And all bare him WITNESS, and wondered at the GRACIOUS WORDS which proceeded out of his MOUTH. And they said, Is not this Joseph’s son?” Luke 4:16-22.

“Even as Abraham believed God, and it was ACCOUNTED to him for righteousness. 7 Know ye therefore that they which ARE of faith, the same are the children of Abraham. 8 And the scripture, foreseeing that God would JUSTIFY the heathen through faith, PREACHED before THE GOSPEL unto Abraham, saying, In thee shall all nations be blessed. 9 So then they which be of faith ARE blessed with faithful Abraham” Galatians 3:6-9.

THE GOSPEL OF SALVATION

By Leave a Comment

THE GOSPEL OF SALVATION: THE POWER OF GOD THAT CHANGES ALL THINGS – BOTH THE CHANGEABLE AND THE UNCHANGEABLE!

“For I am not ASHAMED of the GOSPEL of Christ: for it is the POWER OF GOD unto SALVATION to every one that BELIEVETH; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek. 17 For therein is the RIGHTEOUSNESS of God REVEALED from FAITH to FAITH: as it is written, The JUST shall LIVE by FAITH” Romans 1:16-17.

SALVATION of men, which is FRUITFULNESS in the SPIRIT, is the most awesome essence of THE GOSPEL. It’s our global, inescapable and supreme task, as God’s ambassadors in Christ Jesus stead. It’s a high and higher time to live it out daily, in order to populate the heavens and depopulate hell, by advancing the Kingdom cause of our God and in keeping the ENEMY and COHORTS at bay.

When last did you in passion and compassion share the GOSPEL to your unsaved friend, family member, neighbour, colleague and those about where you do life and express your godly living time and again. Make it a new dawn for you to share this precious GOSPEL faith and fellowship with those especially that you care about and are reachable to begin with. The salvation of a soul is costly, and no amount of earthly wealth and possession can quantify and qualify the redemption of a soul. Only the gospel can and will ALWAYS redeem a soul. Give it a go today.
