Power of God to Save


   The power of God to save men is the Gospel of Christ Jesus. Romans 1:16, “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.” This Gospel testifies that Jesus came to bring man out of sin, distress and trouble, to give him the gift of righteousness and to make him one with himself. He came to make you a partaker of the divine nature 2 Peter1:4.


  All a man needs to do, to partake in all that Jesus has made available, is to believe the Gospel. The power of the Gospel only work for those who believe: “for with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation” Romans10:10.believing the Gospel is the only way your spirit can contact with God. When you believe the word, that God raised Jesus from the dead, and confess the Lordship of Jesus Christ, you are automatically made righteous in Christ Romans5:1, Romans 10:9.
   Titus 1:3says, God has “…in due times manifested His word through preaching, which is committed unto me according to the commandment of our Saviour.” If you have received the new life in Christ Jesus, this is your solemn responsibility. You are to make the power God to save of known through preaching. Let your commitment to the Lord reflect in your dedication to the preaching of the Gospel.
   In 1 Corinthians 9:16, Paul was emphatic in his commitment to the Gospel; he states: “if I proclaim the message, it is not to get something out of it for myself. I’m doomed if I don’t” As a Christian, commit yourself to the preaching of the Gospel today: it is your number one Kingdom responsibility.

You are alive by the Spirit

    But if the Spirit of him that raised up Jesus from the dead dwell in you, he that raised up Christ from the dead shall also quicken your mortal bodies by his Spirit that dwelleth in you Romans 8:11. God gave birth to us by the Word, through the spirit. You’re not ordinary person if you are in Christ or if you have the new life in Christ Jesus. The human life you received from your parents has been replaced, supplanted, by the divine life of Christ. 1 Peter 1:23 says, “Being born again, not of corruptible seed, but of corruptible, by the word of god, which liveth and abideth forever.”    Often, I tell people that Christianity is more than a legal document; it’s a vital experience; there’s a true life from Christ beating in your heart which is the new life in Christ Jesus. The natural man (anyone without the New Life in Christ Jesus or anyone who is not born again) lives by blood, but a Christian lives by the Spirit. No wonder Jesus, referring to the ne...

The Reign of Death is over

  Nevertheless, death reigned from Adam to Moses, even over them that had not sinned after the similitude of Adam’s transgression, who is the figure of him that was to come (Romans 5:14)  Satan became the god of this earth because he got it from Adam who lost out through disobedience, resulting significantly in the reign of death. Remember, God had told Adam, “… in the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely die” (Genesis 2:17). He was talking about spiritual death; spiritual death is the cause of physical death. So, our theme verse says, “Nevertheless death reigned from Adam to Moses (the Law of Moses)…”  But who had the power of death? The Bible says, “Forasmuch then as the children are partakers of flesh and blood, he also himself likewise took part of the same; that through death he might destroy him that had the power of death, that is the devil” (Hebrews 2:14). Satan was actually behind this reign of death. Now, here’s something exciting that I want ...

The Divinity of Jesus

   “Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father; but by me. If ye had known me, ye should have known my Father also: and from henceforth ye know him, have seen him” John 14:6-7.   “Is Jesus really God?”   This is one question many still ask today. They believe He was a great prophet and teacher, but find it difficult to accept that He is Himself God, but He is. The Bible says “In the beginning was the Word, and the word was with God, and the Word was God ” John 1:1. That “Word” that the Bible says “was God” became flesh-Jesus- and dwelt among us: “And the Word became flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth” John 1:14.     Now, the prophecy that came forth before the birth of Jesus also foretold His divinity: “Behold, a virgin shall be with a child, and shall bring forth a son, and they shall call his name Emmanue...
