Do Christians and Churches Obey 1 Corinthians 13?

Do Christians and Churches Obey 1 Corinthians 13?

1

Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, and have not charity, I am become as sounding brass, or a tinkling cymbal.

2 And though I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all mysteries, and all knowledge; and though I have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, and have not charity, I am nothing.

3 And though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor, and though I give my body to be burned, and have not charity, it profiteth me nothing.

4 Charity suffereth long, and is kind; charity envieth not; charity vaunteth not itself, is not puffed up,

5 Doth not behave itself unseemly, seeketh not her own, is not easily provoked, thinketh no evil;

6 Rejoiceth not in iniquity, but rejoiceth in the truth;

7 Beareth all things, believeth all things, hopeth all things, endureth all things.

8 Charity never faileth: but whether there be prophecies, they shall fail; whether there be tongues, they shall cease; whether there be knowledge, it shall vanish away.

9 For we know in part, and we prophesy in part.

10 But when that which is perfect is come, then that which is in part shall be done away.

11 When I was a child, I spake as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child: but when I became a man, I put away childish things.

12 For now we see through a glass, darkly; but then face to face: now I know in part; but then shall I know even as also I am known.

13 And now abideth faith, hope, charity, these three; but the greatest of these is charity.

Psalm 33

1
Rejoice in the Lord, O ye righteous: for praise is comely for the upright.
² Praise the Lord with harp: sing unto him with the psaltery and an instrument of ten strings.
³ Sing unto him a new song; play skilfully with a loud noise.
⁴ For the word of the Lord is right; and all his works are done in truth.
⁵ He loveth righteousness and judgment: the earth is full of the goodness of the Lord.
⁶ By the word of the Lord were the heavens made; and all the host of them by the breath of his mouth.
⁷ He gathereth the waters of the sea together as an heap: he layeth up the depth in storehouses.
⁸ Let all the earth fear the Lord: let all the inhabitants of the world stand in awe of him.
⁹ For he spake, and it was done; he commanded, and it stood fast.
¹⁰ The Lord bringeth the counsel of the heathen to nought: he maketh the devices of the people of none effect.
¹¹ The counsel of the Lord standeth for ever, the thoughts of his heart to all generations.
¹² Blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord; and the people whom he hath chosen for his own inheritance.
¹³ The Lord looketh from heaven; he beholdeth all the sons of men.
¹⁴ From the place of his habitation he looketh upon all the inhabitants of the earth.
¹⁵ He fashioneth their hearts alike; he considereth all their works.
¹⁶ There is no king saved by the multitude of an host: a mighty man is not delivered by much strength.
¹⁷ An horse is a vain thing for safety: neither shall he deliver any by his great strength.
¹⁸ Behold, the eye of the Lord is upon them that fear him, upon them that hope in his mercy;
¹⁹ To deliver their soul from death, and to keep them alive in famine.
²⁰ Our soul waiteth for the Lord: he is our help and our shield.
²¹ For our heart shall rejoice in him, because we have trusted in his holy name.
²² Let thy mercy, O Lord, be upon us, according as we hope in thee.

They Shall Call His Name Emmanuel, God with Us

HALLELUJAH!

MATTHEW 1:21- 25:

21 And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name JESUS: for he shall save his people from their sins.

22 Now all this was done, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken of the Lord by the prophet, saying,

23 Behold, a virgin shall be with child, and shall bring forth a son, and they shall call his name Emmanuel, which being interpreted is, God with us.

24 Then Joseph being raised from sleep did as the angel of the Lord had bidden him, and took unto him his wife:

25 And knew her not till she had brought forth her firstborn son: and he called his name JESUS.

HALLELUJAH! Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

 HALLELUJAH!!!

I wish you and your family Merry Christmas and Happy New Year 2023 with all the thanksgivings to Almighty God for giving us the reason for the season of the annual celebration of His heavenly gift of His only begotten and beloved Son in whom He is well pleased, JESUS Christ, the same yesterday, today and forever.

AMEN!

Be safe!

The Prophet Lied

 The prophet lied when he said he was the last prophet.

For true prophets are chosen by God and not by men.
That is why our MESSIAH JESUS Christ said many are called, but few are chosen.
- Ekenyerengozi Michael Chima,
Author of "The Prophet Lied" and other books distributed by Amazon, Barnes and Noble and other booksellers.

According to the revelation of he who is the Lord God Almighty, “many are called, but few are chosen.” (Matthew 22:14). The testimony of Jesus is “the spirit of prophecy.” (Revelation 19:10). Therefore, no matter what anyone thinks, relatively few Christians are going to end up in heaven.14 Oct 2017.

Matthew 22:35-46:

³⁵ Then one of them, which was a lawyer, asked him a question, tempting him, and saying,

³⁶ Master, which is the great commandment in the law?

³⁷ Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind.

³⁸ This is the first and great commandment.

³⁹ And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.

⁴⁰ On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets.

⁴¹ While the Pharisees were gathered together, Jesus asked them,

⁴² Saying, What think ye of Christ? whose son is he? They say unto him, The son of David.

⁴³ He saith unto them, How then doth David in spirit call him Lord, saying,

⁴⁴ The Lord said unto my Lord, Sit thou on my right hand, till I make thine enemies thy footstool?

⁴⁵ If David then call him Lord, how is he his son?

⁴⁶ And no man was able to answer him a word, neither durst any man from that day forth ask him any more questions.

God Cannot Be Deceived

 God cannot be deceived.

Do not be deceived and misled by your fake pastors, bishops and GOs.
Until you see people through the eyes of God and not through the eyes of the world, you will never know or see God.
You are a fake Christian, fake Muslim or fake believer if you don't see people through the eyes of God.

Matthew 

The Beatitudes of JESUS Christ

1 And seeing the multitudes, he went up into a mountain: and when he was set, his disciples came unto him:

2 And he opened his mouth, and taught them, saying,

3 Blessed are the poor in spirit: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.

4 Blessed are they that mourn: for they shall be comforted.

5 Blessed are the meek: for they shall inherit the earth.

6 Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be filled.

7 Blessed are the merciful: for they shall obtain mercy.

8 Blessed are the pure in heart: for they shall see God.

9 Blessed are the peacemakers: for they shall be called the children of God.

10 Blessed are they which are persecuted for righteousness' sake: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.

11 Blessed are ye, when men shall revile you, and persecute you, and shall say all manner of evil against you falsely, for my sake.

12 Rejoice, and be exceeding glad: for great is your reward in heaven: for so persecuted they the prophets which were before you.

A Letter To My Pastor

Dear Pastor Kachifo,

I am not fasting, I am starving. And I am not the only one.

How can we fast when we don't have any food to eat? 

There is no food to break the fast.

Please, give us food to eat first, then we can fast.

Faithfully in Christ Jesus,

Dear Brethren, We Have Forsaken Our First Love

Dear Brethren,

We have forsaken our first love as our MESSIAH JESUS Christ said that in the last days the love of many will wax cold (Matthew 24:12).

◄ Matthew 24:12 ►

"Because of the increase of wickedness, the love of most will grow cold"

Our MESSIAH JESUS Christ called us to win souls for the Kingdom of God and make disciples of all nations. But majority of us have forsaken that to compete with the world for real estate and Forbes List  the Richest.  

Where is the Good Samaritan among us? 
Who will rehabilitate the destitute on street?

The following scriptures are enough for us to REPENT and RETURN to our first Love.

Timothy 3:2-4

King James Version

2 For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy,

3 Without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good,

4 Traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God;

Matthew 25:35-45 GNBUK

I was hungry and you fed me, thirsty and you gave me a drink; I was a stranger and you received me in your homes, naked and you clothed me; I was sick and you took care of me, in prison and you visited me.’ “The righteous will then answer him, ‘When, Lord, did we ever see you hungry and feed you, or thirsty and give you a drink? When did we ever see you a stranger and welcome you in our homes, or naked and clothe you? When did we ever see you sick or in prison, and visit you?’ The King will reply, ‘I tell you, whenever you did this for one of the least important of these members of my family, you did it for me!’ “Then he will say to those on his left, ‘Away from me, you that are under God's curse! Away to the eternal fire which has been prepared for the Devil and his angels! I was hungry but you would not feed me, thirsty but you would not give me a drink; I was a stranger but you would not welcome me in your homes, naked but you would not clothe me; I was sick and in prison but you would not take care of me.’ “Then they will answer him, ‘When, Lord, did we ever see you hungry or thirsty or a stranger or naked or sick or in prison, and would not help you?’ The King will reply, ‘I tell you, whenever you refused to help one of these least important ones, you refused to help me.’

1 Corinthians 13

King James Version

13 Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, and have not charity, I am become as sounding brass, or a tinkling cymbal.

2 And though I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all mysteries, and all knowledge; and though I have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, and have not charity, I am nothing.

3 And though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor, and though I give my body to be burned, and have not charity, it profiteth me nothing.

4 Charity suffereth long, and is kind; charity envieth not; charity vaunteth not itself, is not puffed up,

5 Doth not behave itself unseemly, seeketh not her own, is not easily provoked, thinketh no evil;

6 Rejoiceth not in iniquity, but rejoiceth in the truth;

7 Beareth all things, believeth all things, hopeth all things, endureth all things.

8 Charity never faileth: but whether there be prophecies, they shall fail; whether there be tongues, they shall cease; whether there be knowledge, it shall vanish away.

9 For we know in part, and we prophesy in part.

10 But when that which is perfect is come, then that which is in part shall be done away.

11 When I was a child, I spake as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child: but when I became a man, I put away childish things.

12 For now we see through a glass, darkly; but then face to face: now I know in part; but then shall I know even as also I am known.

13 And now abideth faith, hope, charity, these three; but the greatest of these is charity.

Whatever Controls You is Your God

 

Almighty God hears and answers prayers.

Name dropping God and quoting verses from the Holy Bible are meaningless to God if you don't obey His commandments.
There is no true relationship with God without the Holy Spirit.
Don't mistake emotional outbursts for the manifestation of the Holy Spirit.
Those who have the Holy Spirit see  people through the eyes of God and not through the eyes of the world.
Do you know the difference?

Everyday you pass by the destitute on the street or by the road side and even though you can help, you don't even stop by to ask him or her what is wrong or how you can help and every Sunday you go to fellowship and worship and claim to be a Christian?
On Friday, you worship in the mosque and claim to be a Muslim?
Keep deceiving yourselves.

Do you know that there are more churches and mosques in Nigeria than the destitute?
Unfortunately, most of the churches are what our MESSIAH JESUS Christ called  whited sepulchres.

◄ Matthew 23:27 ►

You don't know God
Whatever controls you is your God.
What controls you?

I am grateful to everyone who has  responded to support The Rhema Blog .

I have received more than N150, 000 so far and I will appreciate more contributions and donations.

A God sent friend in the Nigerian film industry sent me N120, 000 last Sunday. Others who prefer not to be identified sent their contributions. 

If you cannot send money, you can send foodstuffs of beverages, plastic bottles of water and soft drinks, packs of rice, beans, noodles, pastas, etc. Sending money is the most convenient so that I can save and give money to the needy when the need comes up. 

Please, note that the only qualification for grace is to believe that you can give and receive from the abundance of the infinite grace of Almighty God JEHOVAH JIREH regardless of your denominations in the body of JESUS Christ and even if you don't go to church, you will receive as the Good Samaritan helped the wounded stranger he found by roadside.

Oga Bisi, There is Hypocrisy in The Redeemed Christian Church of God

Good Morning Oga Bisi.

Do you know that if all the pastors of the parishes of our church, The Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG) are true God fearing ministers of Almighty God and true Christians, they would have purchased the two thousand copies of your book, "The Stories of Pastor E. A. Adeboye : The Power of Testimony" since 2019 and you and I will not be broke today, because if all the copies were sold for even only N3, 000 a copy, you would have recouped the millions of naira you spent on the publication of such an awesome book approved by our General Overseer with the foreword by Prof. Yemi Osinbajo, the Vice President of Nigeria. 

Your parish alone should have collected 1,000 copies of the book.

I took copies of the book to my parish and other parishes of the RCCG, but the pastors refused to collect and pay for the book. My pastor did not allow the book to be sold in our parish, but accepted the copy I gave as an offering when I did not have any money to give.

I actually paid for the copies of the book I told you I sold, because I used the testimonies of Daddy Adeboye for evangelism and gave the copies free to those who could not afford it.

https://therhema.blogspot.com/2020/04/pastor-adeboye-reveals-manifestations.html

When I was working for our official magazine, The Redemption Light in the Office of the GO under Pastor Anthony Ojo, we struggled to sell 10, 000 copies of the magazine to the parishes at the Redemption Camp even during the monthly Holy Ghost Night vigils, because majority of the members of the church preferred reading the popular celebrity gossip tabloids like the City People and Encomium to reading The Redemption Light magazine.

The fact is We are what we read and What we read is What we are.

There is too much hypocrisy in the RCCG.

Hypocrisy is the largest religion in Nigeria. Because majority of the so called "Christians" and "Muslims" don't practice true Christianity and true Islam.

They are shameless hypocrites.

As our MESSIAH JESUS Christ said in Matthew 15:7-10:

7 Ye hypocrites, well did Esaias prophesy of you, saying,

8 This people draweth nigh unto me with their mouth, and honoureth me with their lips; but their heart is far from me.

9 But in vain they do worship me, teaching for doctrines the commandments of men.

10 And he called the multitude, and said unto them, Hear, and understand:"

Cheers Sir.

You Cannot Give What You Don't Have

Ekenyerengozi Michael Chima,

Lagos, Nigeria.

"I do not see people through the eyes of the world.
I see people through the eyes of God.
- Ekenyerengozi Michael Chima,
https://www.amazon.com/author/ekenyerengozimichaelchima

When Almighty God said He wired me differently, I did not understand.
Then He also said that He has known me before the creation of the Earth and said I would not understand.

I have asked them as our Lord JESUS Christ asked the Samaritan woman fetching water at the well to give Him water to drink, because He was thirsty. She took time in giving Him the water not  knowing that the water belonged to Him and He is the Living of Eternal Life. But she was Ignorant of this fact until He revealed Himself to her.

Ask. Ask and ask and keep on asking for water to drink in a land full of water and yet the majority of the people are still thirsty.
Ask. Ask and ask as many people as you can reach.
For in asking, they will reveal their true nature to you.
For it is written in John 5:7-8 -

⁷ For there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost: and these three are one.

⁸ And there are three that bear witness in earth, the Spirit, and the water, and the blood: and these three agree in one."

DO YOU UNDERSTAND?

You cannot give what you don't have.
And lest we forget, it is not money
It is Grace.
You can have all the money in the whole world and yet you will not have grace.
Without grace, you cannot love God.
Money cannot buy grace.
It is the free gift Almighty God.
The only qualification for grace is Faith in God. To believe that you can receive when you ask.
You will receive more grace in return for every act of grace.
The greatest form of grace is the one you give and share with absolute strangers and those you don't have any friendship and relationship with.
You are giving to God.

If you are unwilling to give to someone who has given you or not you are evil and ungrateful to God.
There are no excuses.

If you cannot improve the lives of others, you are worthless to the earth.
If you come into the life of someone and the person does gain anything from you, you are worthless.

Stop Public Transport Buses From Coming To The Redemption Camp

Stop Public Transport Buses From Coming To The Redemption Camp

Another bad news of people killed in road accident while returning from the annual RCCG convention at the Redemption Camp in Ogun State made headlines.

https://dailypost.ng/2022/08/15/three-die-while-returning-from-rccg-convention

This was not the first occurrence  of such a tragic incident. But such accidents can be prevented.

The Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG) should charter enough buses for going to and returning from the Redemption Camp and stop public transport buses from coming to Redemption Camp to convey members of the church.

If you invite people to programmes at the Redemption Camp and other locations, you are also responsible for their safety, security and welfare. 

Don't abandon them after the programmes.

Many of the public transport buses are run by owners, drivers and conductors who are cultists and ritualists and worshippers of idols. I call them "Awon Omo Ise Esu" in the Yoruba language which means workers of 😈 devils or Satan.

The drivers are often intoxicated with alcohol and other dangerous drugs.

They often increase transport fares to extort thousands of congregants after the Holy Ghost nights of praise and worship. I have seen many congregants walking miles when they cannot afford the transport fares. I once joined a group to trek from the Redemption Camp to the Berger Bus Stop in solidarity when they could not afford the inflated transport fares.

Many of the public transport buses coming to the Redemption Camp are run by agents of principalities and powers of darkness. 

Most of them don't participate in the praise and worship. 

They just wait at the parking lot until after the services like hungry predators waiting for their preys.

By their reckless driving, you will know that they are possessed by demons.

Many pastors and other ministers of Christian churches in Nigeria lack wisdom.

They have eyes, but yet they cannot see beyond their noses.

They have ears, but they cannot hear beyond their earlobes.

They don't have the spiritual gift of discernment.

I have been praying to Almighty God JEHOVAH JIREH to bless, favour and prosper me abundantly to enable me purchase enough buses for the transportation of people going to the Redemption Camp and other locations for programmes of the church.

Even if I have to provide 5000 buses.

The fleet of buses will be used for the transportation of school children and teachers on days they will not be used for missionary programmes.

Executed For Taking Bibles Into Saudi Arabia

By J. Grant Swank, Jr. MichNews.com Apr 11, 2006.

The Koran was placed for the first time in the White House library. It was a winter banquet prepared by host and hostess US President and Mrs. George W. Bush. 

Muslims from throughout the nation were invited—both males and females. The two genders ate in separate rooms with Mrs. Bush with the women and Mr. Bush with the men. As the Koran was lifted high with honor that evening, it took its place in the Pennsylvania Avenue residence of the most powerful ruler on Earth. Now when it comes to the Christians’ holy book, the Bible, it is shredded at Saudi Arabian airports. An attendant will not ask questions but will take the book to the nearby shredder as the tourist watches God’s Word destroyed. If a quantity of Bibles is taken into the country—and found—the carrier will get several dozen whiplashes. If the confiscator concludes that the punishment should be more severe, the tourist could be executed for carrying divine revelation into Saudi Arabia.

Muslims in free countries demand—and I mean demand—all freedoms. They will not tolerate any discrimination whatsoever. Such web sites as the Council on American-Islamic Affairs (CAIR) instruct readers what authority to contact if there is any sign of alleged discrimination or so-called mistreatment of an Islamic in the United States. Yet the American traveler to the Muslim country may be shot throw if he has a quantity of Bibles in his belongings. Executed or whip lashed. Consider the cost. With that, it is ridiculous that free countries bow and scrape before Muslims’ demands. For instance, in Germany Muslims have demanded and got pork removed from soup kitchens for the poor. The officialdom is afraid of what Muslims will do if pork remains in the soup. Imagine the weak-kneed authorities throughout Germany in condescending to such rude demands from the Allah-worshipers. So it is that Europe that will succumb to the Devil. And then the European Union will wonder how it came about that it was sucked under—and quickly. As far I am concerned, Muslims should be ousted from free countries and sent to their own habitats. 

No Muslim should be admitted to a free country. They are all suspect because of the spread of this devilish cult around the globe. Islam breeds destruction, despair and death. Christianity provides life, light and love in Jesus. Consider the difference. The two cannot integrate under the title of "multiculturalism." Everywhere the Muslims go they spread venom. When Mr. Bush’s surveillance program was put into affect, Muslims immediately demanded meetings with top government officials in Washington DC. They got the red carpet treatment. You, the usual American citizen, try to get an appointment at one of those offices and see if you can get through. The Muslims do get through and they do sit in those chairs in the rooms of the highest echelons. This has to stop if democracies hope to survive the devil’s strangle hold. 

 Why was the Catholic priest shot in the back while kneeling in his Turk chapel? Because he was praying to another deity than Allah. So a Muslim murdered him while praying alone in his sanctuary. That was just days ago. The pope then asks Muslims for tolerance just as they expect tolerance in non-Muslims countries. Does not the pope know Islam? 

 

There is no tolerance in Islam—none. It is Islam world rule or nothing. There is absolutely no margin for tolerance in the Koran. Instead, that unholy publication describes specifically how to gouge out the infidel eyes, lop off their ears, tongues, fingers and toes. No tolerance. Contrast Islam with the gospel of Jesus. He offers forgiveness for repented sins, mercy and grace upon the contrite soul, the hope of heavenly bliss, the indwelling of His Holy Spirit in comfort and wisdom, and the joy of living by faith. There is nothing parallel to that in Islam.

Nothing. In Saudi Arabia the haters of the Bible are called "religious police." They are members of the Committee for the Propagation of Virtue and the Prevention of Vice. That is how the devil reverses legitimate terms and definitions—good is bad and bad is good. Islamic vice is virtue. Islamic vice is virtue. Because of the shiria, the hellish "law and justice" system of Islam, there are no criminals within Islam. Muslims can slit a woman’s throat in "honor killing." But that is not a crime; it is a pious act. And so forth with other atrocious deeds in Allah’s name. That makes the Muslims worldwide the criminal-free community and the most spiritual lot on the globe. 

Whatever crime they commit is not a crime but a religious duty. Consequently, when Saddam Hussein stood in his court this week to ask "Where’s the crime?" he was sincere. He has not committed one crime in his life. He has only followed the Koran and thereby is an Islamic saint. At Guantanamo Bay Muslims complained about their Koran being mistreated. The US responded with all sorts of protocol detail in how non-Muslim personnel were to hold, handle, place and transfer the Koran. Reading the detail was a joke, but not to those personnel who had to walk the razor’s edge. Not only the Bible, but any Christian symbol is repulsive to Muslims. That’s why they burn churches. 

Churches this week have been burnt to the ground throughout Pakistan. Try to build a church in Turkey. It will take a decade or more to get the blueprints approved. Once it’s constructed, the church could burn in the night. Who will have lit the match? 

Yasser Arafat was known for murdering Christian believers and then leveling their sanctuaries or using the church buildings for his militia.

Don't Mistake Mere CHURCHGOERS for CHRISTIANS

 Don't Mistake Mere CHURCHGOERS for CHRISTIANS

Only those who obey the commandments of God are true CHRISTIANS.
Many fake pastors and fake prophets are deceiving millions of people in Africa.

True people of God see things through the eyes of God and not through the eyes of the world.

Powerless pastors are fake pastors.
Whoever makes prophecies that fail to  come to pass is a false prophet.
Majority of the pastors in Nigeria and the rest of Africa are fake pastors and majority of the so called prophets are false prophets who I exposed in my book, "The Prophet Lied" distributed by Amazon, Barnes and Noble and other booksellers worldwide.

Fake pastors and false prophets can only deceive fake Christians. And majority of those claiming to be "Christians" in Nigeria and the rest of Africa are fake Christians without any relationship with the Holy Spirit of Almighty God.
Being emotional in prayer, praise and worship does not mean you are spiritual in the Holy Spirit.
True believers are ruled by the Word of God and not by the ways of the world.
They have eyes, but they cannot see the things of God.
They have ears, but they cannot hear from God.
They listen, but they don't learn.

What fake pastors do in their closets are opposite to what they preach on the pulpits.
Pastors who beat their wives and cheat their wives.
Pastors who maltreat their servants.
Pastors who collect blood money
Pastors whose churches are nothing but whited sepulchres.

Our MESSIAH JESUS Christ already exposed them as it is written in Matthew 7:16-20 -

¹⁶ Ye shall know them by their fruits.
Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles?

¹⁷ Even so every good tree bringeth forth good fruit; but a corrupt tree bringeth forth evil fruit.
¹⁸ A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit.
¹⁹ Every tree that bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire.
²⁰ Wherefore by their fruits ye shall know them.

Only Fake Christians Don't Have the Gift of Discernment

 

ONLY FAKE CHRISTIANS DON'T HAVE THE GIFT OF DISCERNMENT

◄ Hosea 4:6 ►

"My people are destroyed from lack of knowledge. “Because you have rejected knowledge, I also reject you as my priests; because you have ignored the law of your God, I also will ignore your children.

****

Stupidity is of the devil and not of God

There is an epidemic of gullibility and stupidity among majority of Nigerians.

Unfortunately, majority of Nigerians claiming and lying that they are "Christians" are mere fake Christians, because they don't have any relationship with the Holy Spirit of God.

Without any relationship with the Holy Spirit, you don't have any relationship with God. The Holy Spirit is the essence of the existence of God through out eternity. 

Read Genesis 1 and John 1:1.

Don't mistake churchgoers for Christians.

Going to church does not mean you are a Christian.

Witches and wizards and agents of Satan also go to churches and they also quote verses from the holy scriptures to deceive those without the gift of Discernment.

Without the baptism of the Holy Spirit, you cannot be a Christian.

The apostles did not become Christians until they received the baptism of the Holy Spirit on the day of Pentecost in Jerusalem as our Lord, Redeemer, Saviour and MESSIAH JESUS Christ promised.

Acts 1:8-

8 But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judaea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth.

****

If you have the Holy Spirit, you will surely have the gift of Discernment for the Holy Spirit is the revealer of secrets.

Daniel 2:47 The king hath answered Daniel and said, `Of a truth it is that your God is a God of gods, and a Lord of kings, and a revealer of secrets, since thou hast been able to reveal this secret.'

***

The Holy Spirit will give you wisdom.

Not the wisdom of the world, but the wisdom of the knowledge of the Word of God.
