KEEPING THE BODY BALANCED


*DAILY DEW 13TH/OCTOBER/2021*

*KEEPING THE BODY BALANCED*

_Key Bible Text:_
*Then said he unto them, Therefore every scribe which is instructed unto the kingdom of heaven is like unto a man that is an householder, which bringeth forth out of his treasure things new and old.* (Matthew 13:52 (KJV))

_Bible Insight:_

*The Old & New Testament Have Treasures for the New Creation Man*

A lot of times we believers ruled out certain things in the name of it is under the Old Testament. Some go as far as wrongly including thet idea that tithe is for Old Testament. Granted that certain things do not apply under the New Testament, for example, you don't need any intermediary priest to ask for God's forgiveness. However, there are certain teachings that align both in the New and Old Testament and these must be richly discerned and taught. 

Striving to get a balance in the body of Christ can only be achieved when doctrines and teachings align. A lot of division and confusion breeds in the body of Christ because many believers fail to take time to study the word, rather than accept man made commandments and traditions passed down as true doctrines. To keep balance in the body of Christ, we must keep balance in the doctrines of Christ as understood and taught by believers

We are going to consider two major ideas/teachings that are very relevant to the believer even in this Holy Spirit Era. The first is the teaching about the wrath of God vs the love of God. The second is related, but different, that is, the love of God vs the fear of God. 

God willing, we shall receive more light as we look at these two together. While we are at it, would you agree that the Love of God is the only factor that leads men to salvation? Or do you think apart from the love of God, an understanding of the wrath of God is key if an individual would be receptive to the Gospel? 

You could share your thoughts with a friend or share your thought with us as a comment. 

Remain blessed.

WELCOME TO MISSIONS (VI)

*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
