Keeping Your Priestly Garment Pure

-


Until the restitution of [God's Kingdom] among men, we were not counted and recognized as those of the vineyard. We were unqualified to even present ourselves in churches, sanctuaries, et cetera to partake in sacrifices. But now, because of the death and resurrection of our Lord Jesus Christ, we're partakers of the blood and the body as of 1 Corinthians 11:23 - 25. No one can go to the Lord Jesus Christ unless he or she is called by God the Father. Also, no one can go to God the Father except through our Lord Jesus Christ. By this, you must prove yourself worthy of the presence of God. The question is "How?" The psalmist said, "He who have clean hands and a pure heart". 

God needs from you a life of purity, cleanliness and love to do a work with the community, region, and nation at large. Purity must be the very essence of every christian for daily communion with God. By Christ's death and resurrection, God has us to be His chosen generation, royal priesthood, holy nation and peculiar people; of which we were once in sin and wicked in ways, doing all abominable things. We have been given the mandate to show forth the praises of Him who have called us out of darkness into His marvellous light.

God has put on us a garment of holiness. In this, we need and must present ourselves (as Paul wrote to the church in Rome) a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable unto God. This is the blessing and mandate or power we receive whenever we dine at the table of the Lord. God loves those who forgive others and also takes their faults. [God] has chosen us to be a peculiar and holy people.

God bless you.

IT IS FRIDAY BUT SUNDAY IS COMING

IT IS FRIDAY BUT SUNDAY IS COMING Scrip: JOHN 19  It’s Friday. Jesus is arrested in the garden where He was praying. But Sunday’s coming.  It’s Friday. The disciples are hiding and Peter’s denying that he knows the Lord. But Sunday’s coming.  It’s Friday. Jesus is standing before the high priest of Israel, silent as a lamb before the slaughter. But Sunday’s coming.  It’s Friday. Jesus is beaten, mocked, and spit upon. But Sunday’s coming.  It’s Friday. Those Roman soldiers are flogging our Lord with a leather scourge that has bits of bones and glass and metal, tearing at his flesh. But Sunday’s coming.  It’s Friday. The Son of man stands firm as they press the crown of thorns down into his brow. But Sunday’s coming.  It’s Friday. See Him walking to Calvary, the blood dripping from His body.  See the cross crashing down on His back as He stumbles beneath the load.  But it’s Friday; but Sunday’s a coming.  It’s F...

Christlike Uniform

  The Lord have lifted you to this special gathering of the Lord's Supper service. This means you are special and worthy of the Lord.  Today, I am sharing with you on the topic "Christlike Uniform". I took two of my children to Pentecost Preparatory School and two to another school. While monitoring their overall performance, I decided to withdraw them to PPS and I decided to let them use their old uniform in their new school, thinking it will be allowed. But I was forced to sew them a new one. This tells me that, when you move to a different institution, you have to change your uniform.  Uniform stand as authority. I once travelled to another region. Upon coming back, I found myself in a long traffic. As the cars were in heavy traffic jam, we finally got to a point where I saw a slim police officer (traffic cop) who was in charge of managing the traffic with lifting of his hands, directing them to their intended destination. It was not because of his stature, but the aut...
