The main reason why we come and appear before the Lord is to humble ourselves before him because of his Sovereignty, and to express our grateful thanks. According to 1 Chronicles 16: 8-30 we are to; " Give thanks to the Lord Call upon his name; make known his deeds among the peoples Sing to him, sing psalms to him; talk of all his wondrous works For the Lord is great and greatly to be praised; he is also to be feared above all gods." Give to the Lord, glory and strength, give to the Lord the glory due to his name. In Psalms 95 and 96 we are told respectively; "Come, Let us sing for joy to...

Many people since the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ have lived, and died with very little understanding of the value and purpose of human life; many more will live and die not knowing fully the purpose of this precious gift. Those who lived and died before the resurrection of Jesus Christ are excusable, because Jesus Christ spoke to them during the three days and three nights he spent in hell, and those who heard his voice "Were judged according to men in regard to the body, but live according to God in regard to the Spirit." But, Truly, these times of ignorance God overlooked, but...

One common notion expressed by most people is, "If God was really powerful and good, He would not allow so much evil and suffering to go on." On the other hand, there are those who believe that, the victims of calamities are worse sinners than others hence the reason why they suffered. But according to the words of Jesus Christ, "I tell you, No; but unless you repent you will all likewise perish. Regardless of what people may want to attribute to the world's increasing state of disaster, woes, crimes and calamities, the word of God reveals that there are three fundamental reasons for all...

How is Jesus Christ the Lord of hosts, the King of kings, the Lord of lords, the Prince of Peace, the Everlasting God glorified as "The Lord"? If everyone is allowed to chose for them-selves when and how to ascribe to the Lord the glory due to His name, we would end up with every man walking after the imagination of his /her own evil heart, which unfortunately is an abomination to the Lord for He has scattered the proud in the imagination of their hearts. Jesus Christ is glorified as the Lord by observing His Sabbaths. For thus says the Lord; "You shall observe My Sabbaths and reverence My...

If one has to pose this question to people living in the Western hemisphere, the majority of them will answer in the affirmative, and no one dare refute or challenge their claim because their first reaction will be, who make you a judge, only God can judge me But the scripture plainly says; "You believe that there is one God. You do well. Even the demons believe --- and tremble But do you want to know, O foolish man, that faith without works is dead? (James 2: 19-20). Furthermore, this is what the Lord Himself said; ..".He who believes in Me, believes not in Me but in Him who sent Me. And...

The church in the true sense of the word refers to "All who have been Redeemed," Or groups of Christians assembled for worship. The basis on which most churches operate it is quite apparent that they have not conceptualized the huge separation that exists between the church and the world, between light and darkness. The church is made up of individuals or groups of people who have been sanctified or set apart as holy unto the Lord. We all have the same equal opportunity to be one of those sanctified ones because God raised us up with Christ and seated us with Him in the heavenly realms in...

It is stated quite distinctly that; "The first man Adam became a living being, ' the last Adam, a life-giving spirit...the first man was of the dust of the earth, the second man from heaven. As was the earthly man, so are those who are of the earth; and as is the man from heaven, so also are those who are of heaven. And just as we have borne the likeness of the earthly man, so shall we bear the likeness of the man from heaven" (1Corinthians 15:45, 47-49). Man from creation is composed of body, soul and spirit. The soul is the living being in whom there is life, and is unique from all other...

The Almighty God the Creator of the heavens, the earth, the sea and springs of water, and in Whom we all live and move and have our existence, have ordained specific principles by which every aspect of life is governed, and principally by which man should live. These principles are eligible to all peoples, nations, tribes and languages, for it is stated that, "For you are all sons of God through faith in Christ Jesus. For as many of you as were baptized into Christ have put on Christ. There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither slave nor free, there is neither male nor female; for you...

Vain worship is a huge dilemma that plagues the Christian community, but most people are the least perturbed about the situation, and feel quite content in their state of affairs, and when someone tries to draw their attention to this dilemma, they try to defend themselves, and accuses the individual of being judgmental, by saying that God alone has the authority to judge them, which is absolutely correct, but one must also bear in mind that God the Father judges no one, but has committed all judgment to the Son, that all should honor the Son just as they honor the Father. Now the Son to Whom...
