REVEREND CHRIS OKOTIE (two)

0 Comments
The Pastor of Household of God is of the understanding that whatever you bring to church is unto the Lord and if HE has acknowledged your pious gesture, then it is settled. When the altar call is consummated, the Reverend will tell the nascent converts among other things, "If you like our Church, we invite you to be part of what we are doing; but if for any reason you cannot come here, talk to Jesus and He'll lead you to another Church where you'll be comfortable, but you must go to Church." I do not know how many pastors will continue to say this to every Sunday and Wednesday new converts. Very few you will say this, if there is any. Their perceptive stance drums it too loudly and clearly into the core of their beings that the church is their personal investment. Definitely not the Okotie, my Pastor that I have seen for decades.Read More

REVEREND CHRIS OKOTIE (one)

The ebullience of Rev. Chris Okotie has continued to unravel the mystery of the Lord Jesus Christ, using God's own protocol, the Bible. At the diamond age of sixty, this June 16th of 2018, he is still waxing strong in the pedagogical dissemination of scriptural veracity. This, none can take away from the one who goes by the sobriquet, 'My Prince' or 'My Pastor' by Householders i.e. Church members.Read More

I DON’T WANT TO MISS HEAVEN! (III)

What is the connection between the ‘I am’ and the shepherd? Psalm 23 opens with “The LORD is my Shepherd” where the title ‘LORD’ is Yhovah (yeh-ho-vaw') ‘1. (the) self-Existent or Eternal 2. Jehovah, Jewish national name of God.’ In Psalm 80 the first verse reads: “Give ear, O Shepherd of Israel, thou that leadest Joseph like a flock; thou that dwellest between the cherubims, shine forth.” If the Shepherd of this verse is not Jehovah God, then Jesus never trod upon the surface of this terra firma. So, when Jesus declared, “I am the good shepherd” the definite article points in the direction of the One no Israelite would feign not to know: the Almighty LORD God of Israel! Amen!Read More

2Corinthians 5:21, “For he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him.” The auxiliary ‘hath’ perfects the main verb ‘made’ which in the Greek is poieo (poy-eh'-o): ‘to make or do {in a very wide application, more or less direct; properly refers to a single act}.’ The Bible does not use another differing ‘made’ prasso (pras'-so) meaning: ‘to practice, i.e. perform repeatedly or habitually.’ The righteousness which the Lord ‘made’ for us is a once and forever righteousness. No one needs to do anything about this righteousness again, in fact any human righteousness will only pollute what Jesus has perfectly made.Read More

"For ye are dead, and your life is hid with Christ in God. 4) When Christ, who is our life, shall appear, then shall ye also appear with him in glory" [Colossians 3:3-4]. The word 'hid' is kruptō (kroop'-to) to conceal (properly by covering).' The righteousness that marks us out as Christians is veritably a clothing and Jesus is essentially the covering. We do not have in our possession any inherent righteousness. And the reality on the scriptural ground is that only this same Jesus has the capability of the competence to keep us in this state of Godly righteousness. We have the same life as Jesus for we are, in the strictest sense, in this righteous journey together for it says that: "Christ, who is our life." Amen. Read More

John 13:13 (part 1)

So, when Jesus said, "for so I am," the intimation here is simply, "for so Jehovah." 'Lord', in the Greek, is the same as the Old Testamentary Yahweh. This is the grand revelatory import! The Lord Jesus did suffer them to address Him as 'Lord' just because, the wholesome truth is that He happens to be the 'I AM' of their forefathers. He is the Supreme Ruler of the entire universe! This was not a case of an arrogation of falsehood of identity. "Ye call me Master and Lord: and ye say well; for so I am" (John 13:13). Amen!Read More

I AM GRATEFUL TO JEHOVAH (I)

A needle tiny object falls or gets misplaced and a little, "God, please help me find this thing," prayer is all I need to say, for God to accord my ocular prowess the capability to beam my visual competence on this otherwise inconsequential thing. Small, inconsequential things do have their ways of needling you to madness. My deep rooted gratitude goes to God for attending to these little things which to You, dear God, “are not just little things in the eyes of Your love, oh! LORD!” as one of Reverend Chris Okotie's songs says.Read More

Get Jesus Involved (1)

Manoah had involved Jesus when he prayed to God for a son. The epithet 'angel of the LORD' is, in many cases, the epiphany of the unseen Jehovah. This is the preincarnate manifestation of Christ Jesus. He said HIS name is 'secret' which in Hebrew is pil'ı̂y or pâlı̂y' (pil-ee') meaning: 'wonderful, remarkable, incomprehensible, extraordinary.' Who does the oracular afflatus call 'wonderful'? It is the expected Messiah of Isaiah 9:6. It is Jesus the Christ. As many times Samson got Jesus involved he brought the extortionate belligerency of the enmity of the Philistines to their knees.Read More

THE GAME IS UP!!! (part two)

I have often told Satan that I will expose him. Just get born again and throw, in faith, the word of scripture in his face. Lucifer has no solution to it now and forever! The Bible says, "Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you" [James 4:7]. The word 'submit' is hupotassō (hoop-ot-as'-so): 'to subordinate; reflexively to obey.'Read More

The Mystery Of Wedlock (2nd part)

0 Comments
This mystical wedlock does not come to any termination. 2Corinthians 5:17 states that, "Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new." Old things are the natural sinful you. All things that 'are become new' speaks of your new spiritual existence. Verse twenty-one makes it crystal clear who owns the newness and whose righteousness you are wrapped in.Read More

The exclusiveness of the erection of a female for the man's use highlights the legality of the union. The word 'made', in Hebrew, is bânâh (baw-naw') in the book of Genesis 2:22 "And the rib, which the LORD God had taken from man, made he a woman, and brought her unto the man." Bânâh is an architectural term which means: 'to build, rebuild, establish, cause to continue, to build a house (i.e., establish a family).' Remember Jesus' divine promise of Matthew 16:18, "....I will build my church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it." The woman is God's own building. She is God's property; an institution created for the portrayal of God's faithfulness.Read More

I am born again. What next? (2)

The good things you did before you got born again will earn you only earthly rewards. They do not enter into the celestial record of righteousness. You start to work for God only after you go through spiritual rebirth. This is when you can be said to be laying treasures in heaven.Read More

The militarized disposition of the born again person is purely spiritual. He is not expected to take up guns and bombs in the expansion of Christianity as was brutally waged by the Pope's Catholicism, led by Ignatius Loyola. Neither is it to take the semblance of the known Islamist jihads led by Mohammad. Read More

Only Jesus, who had been before the beginning of creation, God's protocol, mighty God, the power, wisdom and righteousness of God can take us to heaven. Jesus is the only one who can bring your spiritual rejuvenation into a reality. He said in John 15:5, “I am the vine, ye are the branches: He that abideth in me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit: for without me ye can do nothing.”Read More

It is either that Mohammed knew that it is the finished work of Jesus or, no heaven, or worse still, that he is totally oblivious of the Truth: the Lord Jesus. He called Jesus by His title ‘Christ’ eleven times in the Qur’an, which he attributed to none else. The Christ is the Saviour! Amen! I do see the possibility of Mohammed’s Islamic mission of deceit.Read More

The prompting psychological energy for every act of man must have an ignition from the Holy Spirit in order to be garbed in the divinely decreed righteousness found only in the accomplished work of Christ. Imagine all the sweat that goes into all the triumphal news coverage of your philanthropic exploits being judged as 'filthy rags' when tended as the winning evidences before the Almighty Judge: all because Jesus Christ is not involved?Read More

Mere mouthing the sinners' prayer does not bring one into the spiritual regeneration process. Many have got it wrong by thinking that mere ritualistic recitation of the sinners’ prayer had got them born again. It must necessitate faith in the finished work of the cross.Read More

At the resurrection of Jesus Christ He is the sole legal tender Lamb of the salvation of mankind. The Bible says in Romans 3:23, "For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;" signifying that man is in need of salvation. It also reminds one of Ezekiel 18:4, "Behold, all souls are mine; as the soul of the father, so also the soul of the son is mine: the soul that sinneth, it shall die." Man has been plunged into an untold spiritual quagmire.Read More

The perfection of Christ's reign has not taken place yet, or has it? Another argument stems from the fact that at the Pentecost the Holy Spirit gave them utterances of known languages and not this gibbering nonsense. This was no doubt, a reversal of Babel, when God confused the Nimrod (Antichrist) led building for Satan. Here, at Pentecost, Jesus had built His Church!Read More
