Jesus came from God to show us real life

The *Lord Jesus came from God. He became a real man. He showed us what real life is. Real life is life in the spirit. He has that life and he came to give it to us. This is *eternal life. God gives it to those who believe in his Son.

John was a witness to this life. The life was with the *Father. Jesus showed that life to us. John and those who believed in the *Lord Jesus saw this real life. They had received it. They proved that the message is true.

WAY TO GOD FOR YOU IS OPEN NOW

God is Holy. No man can please the Holy God. Because man is unable to obey all the commands of God. Disobedience to our Creator God is ‘sin’.  

Sin separates us from God. To relate with God again, man needs his ‘sin purified’ first. This is also called “his/man’s debt”. But man is unable to pay any part of his sin debt. In other word, man is unable to "make purification" to his sin.

Therefore, Jesus came in the flesh, suffer, die, be buried, and raised from the dead and has paid our sin debt.  And he has opened ways to God. All who believe in Him become God’s child and will go to God in heaven after dead.

Jesus has opened 'Way to God for you and all now'.

The  Bible sates that the sacrifice of Jesus  was sufficient payment for our sin debt. Jesus has already paid the penalty for our sins, PAST, PRESENT, and FUTURE — IN FULL.

The Bible says, "When Jesus therefore had received the vinegar, he said, It is finished: and he bowed his head, and gave up the ghost."(John 19:30). 

Jesus' sacrifice was sufficient; that nothing else is necessary to pay the debt we all owe for our sin, yet cannot pay ourselves.

 "By this will we have been sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all."( Hebrews 10:10)

Life by the Spirit

 You, my brothers and sisters, were called to be free. But do not use your freedom to indulge the flesh; rather, serve one another humbly in love.  For the entire law is fulfilled in keeping this one command: “Love your neighbor as yourself.”

A Christian is a New Creation in Christ

 “Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; the old has gone, the new has come!”( 2 Corinthians 5:17)

When one believed and received Jesus Christ for his personal Lord and Saviour, God accept him for His child. God forgive all the believer’s sin and makes him a New Creation. All his all natures – old bad behaviour, bad characters, bad habits and all his old natures have been done away. God give him a good new  behaviour, characters, habits and good natures and new way of life. God give him the Holy Spirit who lead the new believer live  a growing Christ like life.

God counted the old nature died with Jesus on the Cross and buried in the grave but raised him up with the risen Christ to live a new life in Christ and “walk in newness of life” (Romans 6:4).

Hope you have already died with Jesus and raised up by God with Christ. If so, live a New Life in Christ.

ENJOY THE LOVE OF GOD

God loves you and me. He wants to bless us so that we live a peaceful life to glorify Him. But He cannot bless any of us as long as we do not go near Him.

To receive His blessings, we must approach Him.We must be in His love and obey Him. We need to "listen carefully to the voice of the Lord your God and do what is right in His sight" (Exodus 15:26).

We learn from the stories of His people in the Bible that God blessed them when they did what was right, and God corrected them when they did what was wrong. He also wants to behave righteously and not to hurt someone or treat them unjustly. Once we realize we have done something wrong, we need to repent and ask forgiveness.

Again, we should follow God's command to "honor your father and mother" (Deuteronomy 5:16) and "to do what is right, to love mercy, and to walk humbly with your God" (Micah 6:8). 

Hey,………… don’t be a fool!  Don’t be deceived!

You can never please God without having His dearest only Son Jesus Christ with you.

DO NOT WORRY BUT TRUST IN THE LORD

There are many temptations in everyday life. But “No temptation has seized you except what is common to man. And God is faithful; he will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear. But when you are tempted, he will also provide a way out so that you can stand up under it.” (1 Corinthians 10:13)

Only those who do not have the spirit of God (the Holy Spirit) can not bear not fall into temptation. Because,  “Every spirit that does not acknowledge Jesus is not from God. . . . You, dear children, are from God and have overcome them, because the one who is in you is greater than the one who is in the world.”( 1 John 4:3-4)

If you have already received Jesus Christ, the Holy Spirit is in you. Therefore, “Finally, be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power. Put on the full armor of God so that you can take your stand against the devil’s schemes. . . . so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand. . . .

God Guides Us Through His Word

 “Your Word is a lamp to my feet and a light to my path.” (Psalm 119:105)

We all long for direction and purpose in life.  The best is to study God’s word in the Bible and ask the Lord in prayer to guide us. God wants us faithfully seek His help.  His guidance begins with our minds and hearts.

The Lord says, “Be still, and know that I am God. I will be exalted among the nations,I will be exalted in the earth!” (Psalm 46:10)

To get God’s guidance, “Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that by testing you may discern what is the will of God, what is good and acceptable and perfect. (Romans 12:2).

Always pray, saying : “Search me, O God, and know my heart! Try me and know my thoughts!” (Psalm 139:23).

Seek the Lord and ask His help in your weakness. “If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask God, who gives generously to all without reproach, and it will be given him. (James 1:5)

THE LIVING WORD OF GOD

Bible is the living word of God. God is the Creator. He created you to be His child. Sin enter  the world and separated us from our Creator God. The result is, this unending problem of life. But God still love us. He wants us to go back to Him and enjoy His blessings. He gives us the way to turn back to Him. Therefore, God gives us Bible to help establish our faith in Him, know His plan for us. He wants us to read the Bible to  understand God’s love for you and His way. By reading the Bible, you will know what God wants you to be and how you can relate with Him.

It is important for all to read the Bible to know God and His saving grace. It is vitally important for a new Christian to start right: and equally important for mature Christians to remain right.

Keep in mind that the Bible is not a book of philosophy, although it is philosophical. Do not go to the Bible for a scientific treatise; however, there is no discrepancy between the ascertained facts of science and the Bible.

Seeing the Unseen

The young man was attending Harvard University but decided to drop out. Why would he do that? Why drop out of such a prestigious institution? Was he getting bad grades? Did he hate classes? No, his grades were okay, and he liked school just fine. But he left because he saw something most of his classmates didn't see. He saw something bigger and better than a Harvard diploma. He saw a future involving computers, and he saw an opportunity to provide the operating software. But he had to act right away. If he waited till after graduation, his chance might be gone. So Bill Gates dropped out of Harvard, co-founded Microsoft, and became a gazillionaire, with more money than all his Harvard classmates combined. Bill Gates saw something that was unseen by most other people, and he reaped the rewards.

Now, when someone drops out of college to make piles of money, we might admire and even envy him. But what if someone has already graduated from the most elite school and has access to the wealth of an entire nation but then turns his back on it all and becomes a penniless nobody? If he says he did it because he saw the unseen, we might think his vision failed him. When someone like Bill Gates gets rich by seeing the unseen, we're impressed. But if someone becomes poor after seeing the unseen, we might think he's crazy. But that's exactly what Moses did.

Moses had it all, or so it seemed. He had been adopted into the royal family of Egypt. As a member of Egypt's elite, he had a superb education, he had the power to do anything he wanted, and the money to buy anything his heart desired. But he gave it all up. He refused to be known as a prince and instead identified himself with slaves. Why? Because he saw the unseen.

Moses and Bill Gates had something in common: both saw something others didn't see, and both acted accordingly. But Gates and Moses were also different: Gates got rich; Moses became poor. Gates ran a giant corporation; Moses ran for his life. Gates built a palace overlooking the sea; Moses left his palace for a tent in a desert. In both cases, seeing the unseen was the key, but Moses saw more. He didn't just see a way to get rich for the next few decades; he saw rewards that last forever. He didn't just see a chance to get ahead in life; he saw the living God.
