OUR CALLING

“But to each one of us grace was given according to the measure of Christ’s gift.” -Ephesians 4:7

The worst lifestyle anyone could assume is to imitate others or try to live like them. Remember, each of us is unique, and that’s part of God’s plan. He does not create two people to fill the same role in life; that would be confusion. We have a purpose in God’s plan that no one else can fulfill. May we find the joy and satifaction of identifying and living our destinies in the mighty name of Yeshua Hamashiac!

STANDING IN GOD’S NAME

“And He said to them, “It is written, ‘My house shall be called a house of prayer,’ but you have made it a ‘den of thieves.’” – Matthew 21:13

The level of audacity to commercialize the Church of Christ has tragically reached ‘Nephilim’ (devilish angels) proportion. Unfortunately, most church attendees have become so gullible and sheepishly fall for the con-artist prophets and bishops, a situation that severely undermines the integrity of the Church. While we may not be able to route them out completely, we must expose them for the sake of genuine seekers of God’s Kingdom.

PRACTICAL THEOLOGY

“If a brother or sister is naked and destitute of daily food, and one of you says to them, “Depart in peace, be warmed and filled,” but you do not give them the things which are needed for the body, what does it profit?” -James 2:15,16

It’s an empty religion, an ungodly and disingenuous spirituality to appear to share prayers with the needy but not our food when we have the means. At all costs, we should pray for all, especially the unsaved rich ones. And when we can afford it, let us not fail the genuinely underprivileged. Remember, showing kindness is not just a good deed; it’s a crucial part of a believer’s spiritual maturity.

NO REVENGE

“Therefore be merciful, just as your Father also is merciful.” Luke 6:36

Perhaps we can best define mercy as God not giving us what we deserve for all our rebellion. Our Creator and righteous judge, shows us compassion and empathy despite our numerous sins and imperfections. Therefore, we must show a little mercy to those who offend us rather than seeking to get even.
