A STEP HIGHER - Part 3


There is division of labour in God’s kingdom; our duty is to seek His kingdom while His duty is to add those relevant needs to us. Therefore, we are doing God’s work when we focus our attention on addition, which is His duty. We should rather seek His kingdom passionately with all our heart and soul.


In the Tabernacle of Moses, the Outer Court has the Brazen Altar, where the animals are sacrificed. This typifies “meat” and the Brazen Laver, where the Priests wash themselves after performing the sacrifice also typifies “drink. Apostle Paul made it clear in Rom 14:17 “For the kingdom of God is not meat and drink; but righteousness, and peace, and joy in the Holy Ghost.” Outer Court ministry emphasizes the gospel of “meat and drink” or the “people’s need gospel” On the other hand, the Kingdom life is righteousness, peace and joy in the Holy Ghost and this journey begins at the Holy Place.

What Is Faith? - PART 5





By faith Abraham, when he was called to go out into a place which he should after receive for an inheritance, obeyed; and he went out, not knowing whither he went. (Hebrews 11:8)

Obedience to the will of God, whether His will is found in the Scriptures or revealed in the Spirit to the saint, is an important aspect of faith—the faith by which the righteous live.

It has become fashionable in Christian circles to speak of "challenging" our faith. The concept seems to be that the Christian is to announce what he would like to see happen and then, if he can summon the faith, God will do what he has asked. We are exhorted to think "big" because God is a "big God." We are encouraged to be aggressive in our "faith."

We are not certain there is merit in this approach. We do not see it in the Scriptures. The Scriptures are a record of God speaking to men, and of men demonstrating their faith by doing what God commanded them to do. The people described in the eleventh chapter of Hebrews showed their faith by being obedient to God, not by imagining some large enterprise and then attempting to exercise "faith" so God was compelled to do what they supposed was beneficial.

Clearing the Conscience of the Worshiper - Part 5



Because by one sacrifice he has made perfect forever those who are being made holy. The Holy Spirit also testifies to us about this. First he says: "This is the covenant I will make with them after that time, says the Lord. I will put my laws in their hearts, and I will write them on their minds." Then he adds: "Their sins and lawless acts I will remember no more." (Hebrews 10:14-17)

Notice very carefully the above passage. Christ by one sacrifice has made perfect forever those who are being made holy. The Holy Spirit testifies to us about this, that is, about Christ making perfect forever those who are being made holy.

What does the Holy Spirit say about this? He says two things:

No, I beat my body and make it my slave so after I have preached to others, I myself will not be disqualified for the prize. (I Corinthians 9:27)

The Apostle Paul wrote to us concerning the manner in which we are to treat our body:
Perhaps you have found that your body has a mind of its own. If you permit it to do so, it will bring itself down to destruction.

The body is remarkably shortsighted. It cares little for consequences. It lives for the moment. Therefore it is ready to eat and drink itself to death, to smoke cigarettes, to take drugs, to drive while drunk, to indulge in immorality, without regard for the consequences of such actions.
