IN FELLOWSHIP WITH JESUS PART 5

DEFINNING OUR VALUE SYSTEM AS CHRISTIANS    As previously stated in part 4; that we Christians are people of value and substance. Then another question arises what does the above question mean? It simply means that we are a people made in the image of GOD, who carries that thing that makes GOD who HE is (GOD) and that is the SPIRIT of the ALMIGHTY. So simply put our SUBSTANCE IS IN THE SPIRIT OF GOD ON THE INSIDE OF US. Little wonder JESUS told us in Matt 5:13 " Ye are the salt of the earth: but if the salt have lost his savour, wherewith shall it be salted? it is thenceforth good for nothing, but to be cast out, and to be trodden under foot of men. " So our salt element from this SCRIPTURE is the HOLY GHOST and there is every evidence that we can loose HIM "...but if the salt have lost his savour..."  WHAT DOES THIS IMPLY?  WE MUST KEEP THE HOLY GHOST IN US AND CHERISH HIM  WITH ALL WE HAVE IF WE DO NOT WANT TO LOOSE OUR SAVOUR "salt element...

BUILDING YOUR VALUE SYSTEM AS A CHRISTIAN The first question that should come to your mind is  WHAT IS VALUE?  WHAT IS A SYSTEM?  According to late Dr. Myles Munroe value is anything you value A system is a set down rule(s) or guideline(s) geared towards attaining a goal Then a value system would be set down rule or guideline to whatever we value to attain a goal. As Christians the definition now becomes this  Value System is a set of biblical guideline(s) aimed at becoming like JESUS in every sphere of life Rom 8:29, 2 nd Cor 3:18. I would love to let us know that we CHRISTIANS are people of substance, people of virtue just as GOD in HIS imag e is Gen 1:26, but blindness has become the order of the day that a believer begins to look outside the household of faith to find solutions to her problems. It should please be noted that we CHRISTIANS are people of TIMBER AND CALIBER fearfully made in the image of GOD to look at issues i...

HOW TO BUILD A REPUTABLE CHARACTER JUST AS JESUS    First of all I would love to start by clearing the air on what reputable character is ? Reputable means having a good reputation and we all know as christians there is nothing as reputable as living based on the LIVING WORD OF GOD (Heb 11:39a "And these all, having obtained a good report through faith ...") Character means having your yes to be yes and your no to be no from Matt 5:37. Another question arises would you just say yes to whatever comes and no to whatever comes just like that ?  The answer emphatically is NO!!! Then what are you to say YES and NO to ? Jesus was simply saying that we should have a value system that is based on the LIVING WORD OF GOD and stand by it at all times even in trying circumstances and so on. For instance as a married man who found from scriptures you are meant to be loyal to your wife and keeping your marriage bed pure and undefiled (Heb 13:4) and also knowing from the...

IN FELLOWSHIP WITH JESUS PART 2

 WELCOME TO YOUR NEW FAMILY IN CHRIST JESUS (ROM 8:17, 1ST JOHN 3:1,EPH 8:17) Now you are a member, it should be noted that you have an inheritance as a Son or a Daughter of GOD and it is only limited by the level of knowledge you have in CHRIST in essence if you want to enjoy more of the inheritance you have as a Son or Daughter of God you increase in knowledge       (2 Peter 1:3) . And this knowledge is a relational knowledge in the sense that it is built on your LOVE FOR GOD. It should be noted that once you become a member of the family of GOD, the Holy Spirit sheds abroad the love of GOD in our hearts in accordance to Romans 5:5. So each day build your knowledge bank in the SPIRIT through the study of the BIBLE which is done out of a heart of LOVE FOR JESUS.   This is actually one of the secrets to being in FELLOWHSHIP with JESUS.  SO WE SHOULD TAKE TIME TO OUTLINE THE BASICS HERE "And one of the scribes came, and havin...
