Holy Script

The Secrets of Recovery  “The Lord God sent him forth from the Garden of Eden, to till the ground from whence he was taken. So He drove out the man.” (Gen. 3:23,24 ).         How many hearts there are with some spiritual loss. They are not enjoying their Bibles as before. They have not got the same burden for prayer as once they had.  Some weep openly and some secretly, but they have no faith to recover what they have lost. They want to recover it but they do not know how to recover it, and worse still they have lost the hope of recovery.  They are saying in their hearts, “Maybe I will never get my former joy and peace again.” They maybe saying: ‘I can never do the Lord’s service as before’.  What ever it may be that you have lost spiritually there is hope for you. Your loss can be recovered. Rather, you can receive much more than you have lost.       Though in the beginning Adam lost everythin...

The World-Wide Commission Matthew 28: 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.  Introduction all the world   To the Gentiles as well as the Jews. It was contrary to the opinions of the Jews that the Gentiles should be admitted to the privileges of the Messiah‘s kingdom, or that the partition wall between them should be broken down.  See Acts 22:21-22. It was long before the disciples could be trained to the belief that the gospel was to be preached to all men; and it was only by special revelation, even after this command, that Peter preached to the Gentile centurion. Acts 10; Jesus has graciously ordered that the preaching of the gospel shall be stopped by no barriers. Wherever there is man, there it is to be proclaimed.  To every sinner he offers life, and all the world is included in the message of mercy, and every child of Adam is offered eternal salvation....

Trying to spread lies to cover up Resurrection Matthew 28: 13. Saying, Say ye, His disciples came by night and stole him away while we slept.  Saying, say ye his disciples came by night,... They charged them to tell everyone that should ask them about this affair; and even publish it everywhere, that the disciples of Christ came in the dead of the night, and stole him away while we slept: which was a very unlikely thing, and a foolish scheme this, for such a body of men to form. There is no show of probability in it, that the disciples, who were intimidated by the taking and putting Christ to death, and were now shut up in a house,  for fear of the Jews, that these should venture out in the night, to take away the body of Christ, which was decently and honourably interred in a garden of one of his disciples:  and when they knew it was guarded by a company of Roman soldiers; and who besides had no notion of his resurrection from the dead, ...

Unbelief - Mark 16: 10 Mark 16: 10. And she went and told them that had been with him, as they mourned and wept. 11. And they, when they had heard that he was alive, and had been seen of her, believed not.  Mark 16:11. And when they heard. The testimony of Mary alone is related by Mark, but I am convinced that all of them in common conveyed the message in obedience to the commands of Christ.  And even this passage confirms more fully what I have just now said, that there is no disagreement among the Evangelists when one of them specially attributes to Mary Magdalene what the other Evangelists represent as common to all the women, though not in an equal degree.  But the disciples must have been held bound by shameful indifference so that they did not recall to their recollection that what they had often heard from their Master was accomplished.  If the women had related anything of which they had not formerly heard, there would have been some reas...

The Importance of the Resurrection John 19.28-30; 1 Corinthians 15.1-23 Introduction The most important event in all of history and eternity is the death of Jesus Christ on the cross as a payment to God for sin. “It is finished”. Without the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, preaching the Gospel of salvation in Jesus Christ is useless, our faith in Jesus Christ for eternal life is futile, our witness about God is false, and we are still in our sins and are eternally lost. Without the resurrection, we Christians are to be pitied in this life more than all men for practising such an empty and useless faith. What part does the resurrection play in salvation? The resurrection of Jesus Christ confirmed 1) The preaching and teaching of Jesus and God’s Word. Validated the prophecy of Jesus, His teaching, and all of God’s Word. The Bible is God’s revelation of Himself. Read it and learn what God says about eternal life. 2) God accepted the sacrifice o...

Jesus Buried Jesus Is Buried Later John 19:38-39 Jesus Is Buried Later, a man named Joseph from Arimathea asked Pilate for the body of Jesus.  (Joseph was a follower of Jesus, but he did not tell anyone, because he was afraid of the Jewish leaders.)  Pilate said Joseph could take Jesus’ body, so he came and took it away. Nicodemus went with Joseph.  He was the man who had come to Jesus before and talked to him at night. He brought about 100 pounds of spices—a mixture of myrrh and aloes. Joseph of Arimathea is a secret disciple. When it seems as if the movement has been squashed into the sands of history, he comes out of the closet of his fears.  Often fear presents itself as prudence or caution in order to gain respectability. It hides behind the tradition. It warns that the devil one knows is better than the devil one does not know.  It proclaims no gospel and warns that anarchy and innovation are two sides of the same coin. ...

Good Friday 2019 Three life applications from the passion and death of our saviour. 1. The Benefits When they had crucified him, they divided his clothes by throwing dice. (Matthew 27:35) A. Like we learned before Romans crucified their victims naked in order to humiliate them as much as possible. B. It was the custom of the Roman soldiers to divide the clothes of the victims among each other. C. Jesus’ tunic was seamless, woven from top to bottom as a single piece. The soldiers cast lots to see who will get it. Why cast lots? Fulfilment of the Old Testament Prophecy. Psalm 22:18 says “they divided my garments among them and for my clothes they cast lots” Unlike now in Jesus’ day, clothes and fabrics were a rare material. Therefore were very valuable. The more criminals a Roman solider crucified the more was his reputation. They kept the victim’s clothes as a trophy. Implications Now Simon, when he saw that the Spirit was given through the ...

The Last Supper Last Supper Luke 22:19-20  Then he took some bread and thanked God for it. He broke off some pieces, gave them to the apostles and said, “This bread is my body that I am giving for you. Eat this to remember me.” In the same way, after supper, Jesus took the cup of wine and said, “This wine represents the new agreement from God to his people. It will begin when my blood is poured out for you.”  The Last Supper: An Introduction  The Last Supper is one of several major events in the earthly life of Jesus Christ that are recorded in the Bible.  Last Supper is a description of the last meal Jesus Christ had with His disciples prior to His arrest and crucifixion on a Roman cross about 2,000 years ago.  The Last Supper contains many significant principles and continues to be an important part of Christian lives throughout the world.  The Last Supper: The Significance   The Last Supper is describ...

Mary of Bethany Anoints Jesus John 12:1-8 in Its Context  Within the narrative world of John's Gospel, this passage acquires a good deal of meaning through its connections to other scenes and themes. Mary's gift, along with Judas's stinginess, has greater significance because of how it participates in a series of developments.  Passover is near, and so too is Jesus' "hour" (see 13:1). He spends time with Mary, Martha, and Lazarus soon after the pivotal scene of Lazarus's revivification (11:1-44).  That is the "sign" that brings many to believe in him (11:45; 12:9-11), many to flock to him (12:17-19), and others to plot his death (11:47-53).  When Jesus mentions his burial in 12:7, this confirms that his end is coming.  Yet Lazarus's presence at the table confirms that death does not speak the final word.  Jesus forges the connection between the anointing and his burial in 12:7, a verse that has proved challenging...

The Secrets of God's Glory Acts 12: 22. And the people gave a shout, saying, It is the voice of a god, and not of a man.  Acts 12: 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.  When you celebrate your achievements, you tell the whole world that you are happy with yourself and with the outcome of your efforts. Most importantly you tell them about how good the Lord has been to you.  However, we often hear the sad news about famous people after they enter into stardom. We can make a tall list of great men in sports, academia, politics, media etc. who faced serious problems after achieving the great feat.  The wrong handling of their success led them into alcoholism, drug abuse and various vices. Some are still battling with cocaine addiction and others have seen their untimely deaths.  Anybody who tastes success in any field can be trapped into thes...

Hope Makes Us Not Ashamed “Hope makes us not ashamed, because the love of God is shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy Ghost which is given unto us”. (Rom. 5:5). The first name given in the Bible to the Holy Spirit is in Romans 1:4, “and declared to be the Son of God with power, according to the Spirit of holiness by the resurrection from the dead.”  He is given that name that we may understand the meaning of God’s holiness and we also can become holy, as God is holy. That is God’s standard for you and me. In Hebrews 9:14: we read: “How much more shall the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered himself without spot to God, purge you r conscience from dead works to serve the living God.”  That is the second name we see in the Bible: the Eternal Spirit. He has given the Spirit to us to teach us about eternal things. In john 14:16 we read; “And I will pray the Father, and he shall give you another Comforter, that he may abide with yo...

 In the morning, Lord, you hear my voice "In the morning, Lord, you hear my voice; in the morning I lay my requests before you and wait expectantly." Psalm 5:3 In the Bible, David was called a man after God's own heart. He knew God and saw amazing miracles throughout his life. But notice in this verse what David did. He set the tone for his whole day by spending time with the Lord in the morning. It didn't matter what was going on in his life, David had his priorities set. Even though he was mistreated by his family, manipulated, made fun of, hunted down by King Saul, and even made some major mistakes on his own, David realized that each morning held the promise of new hope. Just like David, if you'll make spending time with God a priority in your life, you will see Him move mightily on your behalf. Make it a habit to seek Him first every single day no matter what is happening. Set the tone for your day and set your course for victory! Amen.

Moses kept the flock of his father-in-law, one day he led the flock to Horeb the mountain of God, there the angel of God appeared to him in a flame of fire in a bush, but the bush was not consumed . Moses slowly approached the bush to see the wonder. When the Lord saw the Moses approaching the bush, God called him by his name Moses, and Moses said [ Here I am ], Then God said it is a holy place, so put up your shoes, God further said I  am the God of your father, The God of Abraham, The God of Issac, The God of Jacob, Then Moses afraid and hide the face. 

Moses born in the house of Levi, at that time there was an order of the king, of that country, that every male child born to the Isreal. Moses mother hid him three months and could not hide him further, so she made an ark of bulrushes and daubed it with slime and with pitch and put Moses therein and left that box river of Nile. And the sister of Moses stood afar and watching the happenings to that box.                     The daughter of Pharaoh came to wash herself at the river, along with her servants, and found that ark among the flags and ordered the servants to fetch that. When she opened she saw the child and had a compassion on him and said this is one of the Israel children and ordered, to take that child away and nurse for her. She promised to pay wages to the women who nursed the child.                 When the child grew he was handed over to the Pharaoh's daughter, a...

A new king not known to Joseph, started ruling the country, is very much jealous of  Israel population. he tried to trouble them in so many ways, the more they afflicted them, the more they multiplied and grew. The king made their lives bitter with hard bondage, and asked the mid-wives to kill new born male children but the mid-wives afraid of Israel's God. The mid-wives were also blessed by the God, there after Pharaoh asked his people to cast all male child into the river and to save female child.     " Here Mid-wives feared to God and blessed by the God, so who ever fear to God will be blessed by the God, irrespective of Nation."                              ~ Exodus Chapter 1                  ...

Jacob called all his sons, and blessed every one according to his blessing he blessed them, and requested to bury him where his forefathers are buried. as per they request of Jacob he was buried in the land of Canaan. Joseph's brothers prayed Joseph to forgive their sins and trespasses. Then Joseph wept and said it is the plan of God about our family. Joseph lived 110 years and saw Ephraims children and also of Manasseh. Joseph requested his brothers to carry up his bones from Egypt to the land which God swear to Abraham, Isaac, Jacob. Joseph died at the age of 110 years old, his brothers Embalmed him, and he was put in a coffin in Egypt.                                                     ~ Genesis Chapter 49,50
