ALL EYES ON CHRIST JESUS


*DAILY DEW 22ND/AUGUST/2021*

*ALL EYES ON CHRIST JESUS*

_Key Bible Text:_
*Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God.* (Hebrews 12:2 (KJV))

_Bible Insight:_

Stephen in the new testament saw Jesus at the right hand of the Father 
David in the old testament saw the same and said "The Lord said to my Lord, sit at my right hand..."

Peter and Paul raised the dead in the new testament 
Elijah and Elisha raised the dead in the old testament.

Paul was caught up to the third heavens and heard things;  
Moses and some elders saw (a likeness of) God and sat down and ate and drank in His presence.

Paul the most prolific writer in the new testament with great revelation on the new creation may have had problem with his eyesight 
Moses the most prolific writer in the old testament with great revelation on the old creation had powerful eyesight at age 120 years

No one in the new testament is recorded to have lived beyond 120 years
Many in the Old Testament lived way beyond that

Paul devoted his life to the gospel and stayed unmarried, fought the good fight, finished his race and went to be with Jesus 
Enoch married and walked with God and was translated to heaven directly from earth.

Every apostle in the new Testament died
Elijah in the Old Testament went up in a whirlwind to heaven

So don't confuse Eternal Life with other things, because none of the saints in the old testament had eternal life; even though God's Spirit was with them and on them. Don't get carried away by bombastic talks about immortality, portals, court sessions, bilocation, translocation and australopithecus africanus. Lol.

All these things are real, so earnestly desire the best gifts, but keep your eyes on the simple solid truths of the kingdom, on Christ Jesus, rejoice that your name is written in His book of life, walk in faith and love. 

*MEDITATION*

*Major on the major - faith, hope, and love. And all other things shall be added to you.*

WELCOME TO MISSIONS (VI)

Image
*DAILY DEW 18TH/DECEMBER/2021* *WELCOME TO MISSIONS* (VI) _Key Bible Text:_ *And of making all people see how God's secret plan is to be put into effect. God, who is the Creator of all things, kept his secret hidden through all the past ages, in order that at the present time, by means of the church, the angelic rulers and powers in the heavenly world might learn of his wisdom in all its different forms.* (Ephesians 3:9-10(GNB))  _Bible Insight:_ But now for the sequel. They became so interested, so aroused, so awakened, that they came in ever-increasing numbers. Souls were saved and in a very short time every seat was taken. Before long thy had caught the vision and they began to give, to give as they had never given before, and in a few weeks, without having to say hardly anything about the local obligations, every debt was paid, every bill met, and from that day to this we have not known the meaning of the word “debt” in connection with our work. We discovered that w

PATRIOTISM & NATIONALISM

Image
*DAILY DEW 5TH/MAY/2021* *PATRIOTISM & NATIONALISM* _Key Bible Text:_ *"Brethren, my heart's desire and prayer to God for Israel is, that they might be saved. For I bear them record that they have a zeal of God, but not according to knowledge." (Romans 10:1-2 (KJV))   _Bible Insight:_ Some have tried to distinguish between what is desirable and what is wrong by using two separate words, patriotism and nationalism. The value of the former has been shown by Lecky when he wrote in his _History of European Morals_ :  Patriotism leads men to subordinate their wishes to interests of the society in which they live. It extends the horizon of life, teaching men to dwell among the great men of the past, to derive their moral strength from the study of their heroic lives, to look forward continually, through the vistas of a distant future, to the welfare of an organization which will continue when they have passed away.  Nationalism, on the other hand, can be used to

Age Long Wisdom (III)

Image
*DAILY DEW 13TH/NOVEMBER/2020* *Age Long Wisdom (III)* _Key Bible Text:_ *"And Jesus went on to say, And so I tell you: make friends for yourselves with worldly wealth, so that when it gives out, you will be welcomed in the eternal home."* (Luke 16:9) _Bible Insight:_ In soul winning, we need money! Cool money! The world needs the power of God but it takes engaging money to bring the Gospel close enough, so that the world can hear and see the power of God.  We need money and materials things to push the Gospel. In our key text, we see the need to use worldly wealth to make friends who will be brought closer to the opportunity to hear the Gospel and be saved. Use worldly wealth. You don't need to wait until you have enough of it. You will never have enough. However, you can decide to use the worldly wealth you have for soul winning. In the story of the good Samaritan, we see a Samaritan using his time, energy and resources to revive the man who was robbed and w
