THE GRACE OF GOD: A GIFT OF SALVATION

The grace of God is a fundamental concept in Christianity, and it refers to the unmerited and undeserved favor that God shows to humanity. This grace is often associated with the gift of salvation, which is available to all who believe in Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior. This gift of salvation is not something that can be earned or bought, but it is freely given by God to those who accept it in faith.

SCRIPTURE OF THE DAY (1 TIMOTHY 2:1-7 “PRAY FOR ALL MEN”)

I exhort therefore, that, first of all, supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks, be made for all men;

For kings, and for all that are in authority; that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and honesty.

For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Saviour;

IS JESUS THE ONLY WAY TO GOD?

In our eclectic, pluralistic era, it may sound arrogant to claim that God forgives sins by one way only, and that one person only-Jesus-speaks the truth about God. How can Christians be so exclusive?

Two reasons explain why Gideon was an outstanding leader and national hero. To begin with, God chose him. God looked around and decided that He would use Gideon. The second reason was that Gideon simply was willing to be used by God. It was not a Continue reading WHAT MADE GIDEON SUCH AN OUTSTANDING LEADER AND NATIONAL HERO?

DEFINITION OF THE DAY (CONGREGATION)

zion-congregation-church-app

CONGREGATION- Assembled people of God. “Congregation” translates the Hebrew words ‘edah and qahal primarily. These terms may apply to any individual or class collectively such as “the wicked” or “or hypocrites.” While ‘edah is once used to refer to a herd of bulls (Ps 68:30) and once to a swarm of bees (Judg 14:8), both words primarily describe the Israelite people as a holy people bound together by religious devotion to Yahweh rather than by political bonds. There is no apparent distinction in meaning between the two. Every circumcised Israelite was a member for the congregation, as were the women, though the congregation is offten called “the sons of Israel” (Exod 16:1-9 NASB). The congregation was subdivided into the tribe and then the most basic unit, the family. The congregation of Israel functioned in military, legal, and punishment matters.

The jailer at Philippi was sleeping soundly while Paul and Silas sang praises to God at midnight. But God caused an earthquake that left him wide awake and terrified. All the locked prison doors swung open and all the prisoners were freed of their constraints. Since his own blood would be shed if they escaped, he probably saw his life flash before his eyes.

HEBREWS 10:26-27,31- For if we sin willfully after that we have received the knowledge of the truth, there remaineth no more sacrifice for sins,

27- But a certain fearful looking for of judgment and fiery indignation, which shall devour the adversaries.
