Christianity Is The Only Way To Salvation (two)

0 Comments
Being a born again Christian is the path that heads straight to the new and the living way established by Jesus Christ when He said, “For this is my blood of the new testament, which is shed for many for the remission of sins” (Matthew 26:28). Nicodemus went to meet with the very Foundation and the Head of the Church, the pillar and the ground of truth, where Christianity is practised. The new birth is actually midwifed by the Holy Spirit, God from above. ‘Except’ and ‘cannot’ are two strong negating terms showing the impossibility of salvation without going through Christianity founded by Jesus. Encapsulating the entire Bible is John 3:16 “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.” Salvation to all mankind through Jesus, whose atoning blood erases the sin that herds unbelievers into hell, is what John 3 verse 16 makes known to all. Where is this taught? The Christian Church. The eighteenth verse reads, “He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.” You either come to Jesus and be saved, or go elsewhere which seems right in the sin contaminated perception of humanity and perish forever. Christianity awaits all and sundry; “Come unto me all that labour and are heavy laden,” Jesus calls out, and concludes with the most reassuring, “and I will give you rest.” Read More

Scripturally, whoredom is idolatrous practice. Any one or assemblage that worships not the true God is engaged in spiritual prostitution. There is one God. Serving another spiritually is to have forsaken the true God. The first marriage in the Garden of Eden was not only between God’s children, the LORD God is the Father-in-law of the pristine couple. In the eternal mind of God, He must marry the Church to redeem her. For this theological reason, it is a divine taboo to worship another god. Many so-called churches are institutions of Satanism. Religions that do not worship God in truth and in Spirit – Jesus being the truth, and the Holy Spirit being the Spirit of Truth – do so in fruitless vain. Jesus died, like Adam (before the emergence of the Eden woman), for the Church, established for the preservation of saved souls. The Holy Spirit, after the death, resurrection, ascension and His session on the right hand of the celestial Majesty, continues to nurture the Church: providing the Church with pastors, evangelists, prophets and the enabling power to go marching on, till the day of the rapture.

Cain’s decision to dishonour God’s Fatherly advice led him to the first Adamic murder charge and guilt. Consequently Cain became the first Antichrist: for the LORD God of his encounter is the Christ in His pre-Incarnational manifestation. What happened to those who turned deaf ears to the one hundred and twenty years of Noachian evangelism? Did they all not suffer annihilation save eight, Noah and his immediate household? David made the ungentlemanly mistake of not taking his eyes off the nakedness of the bathing Bathsheba. What was the end result? Lust, adultery and deceitful cover-up which culminated in David’s guilt of treacherous murder of Uriah, Bathshba’s husband, were the eventual results. Could David have really done that evil? Better not make this mistake. Above all, the most nefarious commitment of sin is to live throughout your lifetime refusing to do John 3 verse 3, which reads, “Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.” Why should a man be born again? “For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God” (Romans 3:23); what brought sin to the world is found in Psalm 51:5 “Behold, I was shapen in iniquity; and in sin did my mother conceive me.” Man was born a sinner, from the womb of motherhood. Spiritual progeny, midwifed by the Holy Spirit is what born again is about. Getting born again requires unequivocal faith in the finished work of the cross: believing that Jesus is the Son of God; that He died for your sin; that He arose from the dead; you must believe in His Lordship, on account of which, you have decided to receive Him as Lord and Saviour. Getting born again is a conscious effort on the part of an individual – to accept Jesus as Lord and Saviour. You cannot afford to make the mistake of remaining unregenerate spiritually. John 3:18 says, “He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.” Selah!

Does God not know that mistakes will be committed? Why does He not stop them, after all He is a very responsible Jehovah? God knew there will be commitment of mistakes; it is for this reason He gave mankind His laws. Being the Alpha and the Omega, the Almighty, He had to give us laws to warn intelligent beings not to make mistakes of sinfulness. Your argument is, “So, if He knew I will commit this blunder and I do everything to make sure the mistake never happens, do I not prove the Almighty Omniscience wrong?” And still ruminating through your mind, “Also, looking at it from the angle of inevitability, if the LORD God has seen it coming, what can one do to avert the ineluctable futurism of divine establishment?” This thinking is sheer determinism. The doctrine of the Bible does not operate on fatalistic tendencies. God made us free moral agents. He does not create anybody to populate the number of insanity. Forces of darkness initiate evil eventualities more often; the good Lord sees it and expects you to activate your free moral agent dynamism. It is so amazing that the Book of Genesis holds the origination of all Adamic eventuation. Creating the first Eden Garden couple intelligent beings, God gave them the responsibility of free moral agency. Being beings of creationism, they did not possess the faculty of the Omniscience, ergo, prone to acts of gaucherie. To protect them from solecistic goad of evil Lucifer, God instructed Adam, concerning Eden, “to dress it and to keep it.” The two active dress and keep definitely, put Adam in responsible charge of the Garden, God’s House.Read More

One great Bible teacher defines agapē thus: “A love called out of the heart of the lover, on account of the value the lover has placed on the object of his love.” Quite ponderous, I believe. This is the love of Divine display towards Christianity: for God saw the Christ-value on those who would accept Jesus, the Author of salvation, and bestowed agapē on His object of love. Amen. This love is not a feeling per se, it is a commitment. This love will not say, “I love her, because of her hair, legs, face, intelligence, beauty, fame or wealth.” The agapē love stems from his commitment to the success of God’s institution: marriage. The word ‘submit’ is the Greek hupotassō (hoop-ot-as’-so): 'to arrange under, to subordinate, put in subjection, obey.’ The wife is expected, by the Institutor of marriage, to package herself and place herself under the instructions of her husband. The thing is, if you do not see this man as intelligent enough to place your being under him, just do not make the mistake of getting confined to him in marriage. Read More

Is one night stand not fashionably accepted way of ‘catching fun'? You call it ‘one night stand', I tell you the truth, it is actually ‘one wicked night with Satan, the dark lord of evil’. Has it not resulted in millions of blackmailed victims? You think your manhood is free to traverse the fleshly privacy of all femininity you come across? Kings, military generals, teachers, pastors, evangelists, politicians, great men and women of industries have fallen under the corruption of sex. You do not even know how demonic your illicit sex partner is. One sex can invoke demons into the destruction of your person. You think you are making money out of sex, but do you know that you could actually be dining with demonic principalities? The man had rubbed fetish substances of demonism on his penis. His entrance makes way for the destructive elementals to feed mercilessly on you. Your home becomes the playground for evil occupation just because you had sex with that beautiful, innocent looking, young girl. You did not know that she was on an annihilating mission.Read More

If the Word of God is strictly “marriage before sex” and you think you can circumvent that divine clause, do have a second thought; and if you happen to be a person of impervious heart, then take yourself through to the tenth thought: better not make this stupidity of mistake. The stupid alibi I have always heard from illicit coition is the protectiveness of, “…we had a consensual sex.” The LORD God, the Creator, hates fornication – sex before marriage. What is outlawry? It is simply lawlessness! Fornicators are outlaws. How many fornicators are expecting pregnancy? Negligible few, I believe, are in this business of Satanism. The logicality of pregnancy pricks not the impervious conscience of fornicators. Pregnancies have scuttled or destroyed educational pursuits; and what about shame? It has brought untold stories of obloquy. Okay, you want protection from unwanted baby. But the pills can either do chemical damage or just fail to yield the desired result! Oh, you want to opt for the condom? Is it not possible for the rubber to have a faulty tear or hole? It is better not to commit this error.Read More

LUCIFER’S DESIRE TO BE GOD (3)

The Word of God clearly states in Matthew 26:28, “For this is my blood of the new testament, which is shed for many for the remission of sins.” Exegetical explanation of this verse is the Pauline, “For if that first covenant had been faultless, then should no place have been sought for the second” (Hebrews 8:7). Sin robs one of all hopes, even the ones that stand good chances of activation. Adam behaved in this similitude, because Scripture did not report his plead for the original sin. Unlike Lucifer, whom I believe the LORD knew that he would not change at all, Adam, today, continues to walk to the Christian Church altar, praying the prayer of salvation. Lucifer could not envisage the future role of his crave. How could he, when he is not omniscient? Could he have seen what goes on everywhere simultaneously? He has not the faculty of the Omnipresence. Lucifer secretly, without permission, tampered with the knowledge of good and evil, and to his chagrin he lacked the enhancement of omnipotence to navigate through omniscience to traverse the labyrinth of the knowledge of good and evil. Lucifer, you failed. Amen. Read More

LUCIFER’S DESIRE TO BE GOD (2)

He did not even realize what the mere contemplation had caused: a stupid oozing drool from his lips. The beclouding stupidity of his bizarre desideration failed to point out the fact that each of the Beings of the Divinity is the Almighty, an uncreated Entity of eternality. Lucifer forgot that his existence came from the creative – bârâ’ –lips of his Creator. Son of the Morning, how could you be detached from the perfection of your making, and from the fact that you did not, like Jehovah, come into being by your own power? Your angelic sonship to the LORD God is not biological; it is not capable of rendering your son-placing a cultural equality with the Eternal Father, as it is obtained traditionally. It is the LORD’s call to create equality with Him, not ever yours – an object of creationism. Out of nothing, Satan the Devil, you came from; how could you not remember your bârâ’ nativity? Your stupidity has sentenced you back into nothingness. An entity of creationism cannot aspire to the status of worshipped God – it is a spiritual aberration. You must have the unparalleled qualifications of the three O’s – Omniscience, Omnipotence and Omnipresence – to receive the latria due to the ‘Ělôhı̂ym. The omniscience of the Godhead will not advance into the entertainment of hereticism. The Godhead, with Lucifer as a member, will, no doubt, mar Divinity with a freakish clown.Read More

LUCIFER’S DESIRE TO BE GOD (1)

What is scripturally clear is that a reading between the lines of God’s protocol will unmask the leader of the first coup d’etat, Satan the Devil, to be the one whose true sobriquet is Lucifer. Like my Pastor, Reverend Chris Okotie, will always say, everything goes back to Genesis; so to Genesis chapter three we start this exegetical trip of exposing Lucifer – I have always told him, “I’m going to expose you!” At the commitment of the original sin, God’s main object of judgement was the nailing of the evil spirit behind the serpentine meandering intrusion of God’s house: Eden. God did not go to Satan directly, He went to Adam who pointed to his wife, who in turn confessed in verse thirteen, “The serpent beguiled me and I did eat.”Read More

Why Was Adam Created Naked? (two)

Lucifer sinned and that was the end of his righteous stand before God. The angels that followed Lucifer tried to populate the earth with their ungodly progenies of half-angels-half-men; and what happened? They have been serving their gaol sentences in Tartarus ever since. There were beings on earth when Lucifer and his fallen angels were cast to it. They were subtly deceived into following the Devil; that, getting them estranged from the holy God, they became demonic entities of disembodied evil spirits. The fall of Adam begat God’s anger; but this fall did not cause the annihilation of his entire progenies. The naked days of his righteous Eden abode engendered the spirit of meekness. From his heart, God saw true repentance. Adam, the lord of Eden, sinned; was washed in the blood of Jesus for his forgiveness; every one of his progenies who heed the call of salvation receives spiritual cleansing, becomes born again; he will be transported to heaven in divine rapture if he or she lives to the time of the revelation of the Antichrist. In heaven, the gentleness of his spiritual disposition places him beside Jesus Christ at the right hand of the celestial Majesty; after that Adam comes back to the earth to inherit it forever, in the name of Jesus Christ. Hallelujah! Read More

Adam happens to be God’s cynosure of the creationism. He was created to become the paramount personality among all intelligent beings of creation. Adam would rule as God’s viceroy. For every living entity must experience biological growth, Adam must be made to journey through natural course of the life of intelligence. God’s omniscience does not require probationary discipline of an individual to determine the subject’s eligibility. But the gospel truth is simply that, for the sake of Adamic future suitability, he must be made to face probation. He must experience humility; though he was not a baby, he needed to go through the natural days of humbling infancy. To come forth as gold goes a trial ere it.Read More

BLOOD THAT SPEAKETH BETTER THINGS (5)

Jesus, whose blood speaketh better things, is the new theory, path and lingo. I have continually taught mathematics as a primary school teacher and I understand experientially that without any knowledge of the theorem, which must have logical step by step solvent calculation, it, conclusively, is impossible to solve a scientific problem. Without Jesus, the new and the living way, there is, absolutely, no way by which any created being can deal with the sin question, which ultimately herds Christians to the eternal bliss of heaven. Hebrews 10:20 “By a new and living way, which he hath consecrated for us, through the veil, that is to say, his flesh;” and this takes us to the Jerusalem which has two curtains, katapetasma (kat-ap-et’-as-mah), one is placed at the entrance to the second compartment, where the priests carry out their official duties – separating it from the outer court i.e. the first compartment – and a second one is at the entrance of the Holy of Holies – the third compartment.Read More

Do verses 22 and 23 say categorically that Jesus is the Head of the Church and does it reveal that the Church is His mystical body? Did I not explain clearly that the saved soul is the full responsibility of the Godhead? If the Church is His mystical body, does it not behove God to do the Jude verse one needful? “…to them that are sanctified by God the Father, and preserved in Jesus Christ, and called:” (Jude 1:1). The Father “purifies” for salvation. Jesus Christ is the divine refrigerator that continues in “preserving the regenerate Christian from injury, rottenness and loss,” because that is what the Greek word for 'preserved', tēreō (tay-reh’-o) means. Through the inspired energy of the Holy Spirit, the gospel becomes meaningful; the “call” is made and what does the Father-sanctified and Christ-preserved do? Led by the Holy Spirit the utterance of the prayer of salvation is made from the heart, you get born again and the Trinity takes over the purchased life, and your new life becomes the full responsibility of God; how can it be lost? Has God ever lost anything He truly wants for Himself? Selah! Read More

The first stance of soteriological existence is the act of faith. It does say somewhere, “faith cometh by hearing;” and when the heard substance is led to the state of digestion, the risen hope transforms into a deeply rooted faith in the rhema of the Logos. The LORD God, seeing this display of sheer intent of the abiding faith, the Godhead takes it up from there: for He alone can bring the objectivity of faith into its destined consummation. It is God’s business transaction, which requires not a less in Divinity of participation. Another Entity of eternality, the Holy Spirit, must, as of divine requirement, serve as the earnest. God the Father did not perfect the payment of regeneration of the Christian with the denarii of the Roman tentacles of nations’ occupation. He did not pay with the British pound sterling to save Europeans; the globally sought after US dollars was not the currency of transaction; neither is the Nigerian naira offered for the redemption of Africans. The tectonic relevancy and divine bourne is the onliest reason why God must use Himself as the down payment for the Church: God’s biggest dream. Read More

The saved is in the eternality of, not One, but in the Divine hands of Two Members of the Godhead; in fact the saved soul is held in the eternal hands of the Trinity – the Holy Spirit is actively involved in the soteriology. Theologically, we understand that what is in the hand of the Christ is said to be in the Father’s hand as well. But the seriousness of the Divine Insurance Corporation (headquartered in heaven) enforces me to dwell on the individuality and the distinctiveness of each of the Members of the Godhead. The hand of Christ, from which none can pluck, is a mystical arm of eternality. It is impossible to even come to an approaching distance, not to talk of touching it. If you cannot touch it what possibility, on earth, gives anyone the strength of moving just one finger of eternal existence? Need we dwell on the impossibility of plucking the saved soul out of the hand of the Christ? Now the same saved souls are secured in the Father’s eternal hand. One eternality is much, too much enough to effect security for all eternities; but two hands of the Divinity? Phew! It is the end of the discussion! How it seems too difficult to understand this simple scriptural facticity is disturbing to my theological mind, honestly! Does it not make it explicitly in abundance of clarity in Romans 11:29 that “For the gifts and calling of God are without repentance”; where ‘without repentance’ is the Greek ametamelētos (am-et-am-el’-ay-tos) meaning: ‘unregretted or better still, irrevocable’? The predestined quiddity of the born again, which before creation was an issue of Godhead predetermination concerning the Christian, makes his spiritual rebirth unreversible. Read More

He says pointedly, ‘a man-faced being of Adamic nature’ cannot be justified save by the faith, faith in the word of God. Any person who comes to Jesus, knowing that he was born in sin and wants to be justified, must get born again, a birth engendered solely by the beneficence of Divinity, maintained and perfected by the same God and which has absolutely nothing to do with man’s moral rectitude is what this new birth of soteriology is all about. “Jude, the servant of Jesus Christ, and brother of James, to them that are sanctified by God the Father, and preserved in Jesus Christ, and called: Mercy unto you, and peace, and love, be multiplied” (Jude 1:1-2). God Almighty, the Eternal Father, already knew in the eternal past who will seek to be redeemed. So, what did He do? The Greek word for ‘sanctified’ is hagiazo (ha-ǰiy-a'-zō): ‘1. to make holy, to set apart unto God and apart (alienate) from the world. 2. (ceremonially) to cleanse. 3. (mentally) to reverence.’ What God did was to use His omnipotence to ‘set those who will receive Jesus as Lord and Saviour apart’ unto Himself. Everything that marks the process of salvation is God’s work, therefore, the born again person will continually have the Divine attention of ‘mercy’ (to be forgiven always), ‘peace’ (prosperity in all its ramifications) and ‘love’ (God’s unconditional, protective affection) multiplied unto his soul, simply because this regenerate soul must not be lost. Amen! Read More

Have we forgotten that Jesus, the Good Samaritan, took the injured victim to an ‘inn’ that is pandocheion (pan-dokk-i'-on): ‘a public house for the reception of strangers; all receptive.’ Remember also that the victim did not supply anything towards his recuperation. The Good Samaritan provided everything, including the payment for the place of rest. How much did He pay? Two pence; and in those days a penny is regarded as a day’s wage. Theologically, a day in God’s heaven is like a thousand years on our terra firma. According to Rev. Chris Okotie, the two pence is the payment of our rest in the Church, divinely presided by the Holy Spirit, for two thousand years. As long as the Church age functions on earth, the Christian is protected against any evil eventuality. Jesus has not performed His Second Coming, therefore, we must remain divinely protected from falling into any loss of salvation. It is just not possible that what Jesus paid for will suffer spiritual deterioration. The terms and conditions of this salvific transaction are absolutely in the hands of the Members of the Godhead. The Holy Spirit will never accuse the Lord Jesus, the Second Member of the Godhead, of defaulting in payment, and consequently throw out an erring inmate of ‘the Inn’ – the Church of the Living God. The belief in the loss of the salvation brought by Jesus is quite unscriptural.Read More

Jesus Christ is indubitably the Rock of Ages – the eternal stability of the souls of regenerate born again children of the Most High, making sure no soul is lost, once saved: for who can pluck Christians out of God’s hand when it is clearly understood that, “And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand. How could our superintendent pastors not see that the word ‘pluck’ is the Greek harpazō (har-pad'-zo): ‘to seize, carry off by force; to seize on, claim for one's self eagerly; to snatch out or away; to steal (absolutely). How can teachers of the Word not grok that even the practicality of the viciousness of Satanism cannot, and will never remove the saved souls from the hand of the Creator? When John revealed the drama that took place in the heavenly assizes, where the One Who sat on the empyrean throne of the Majesty held the scroll, could any being of creationism approach the throne to take or even accept the scroll? None, save the One Who possessed the kind of hand that held the scroll could stretch the similitude of hand and to take! Only the eternality of the hand of Christ could legally and appropriately be stretched towards the eternal hand of the Father. As long as one has got himself initiated into the soteriology of the Godhead both hands and that of the Holy Spirit are holding that one firmly. Read More

So, what Scriptural explanations debunk preachers of “you can lose your salvation”? The very few words of the microcosm of the entire Bible, John 3:16, make indubitable provision for the answer, which reads, “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.” The Greek for ‘everlasting’ is aiōnios (ahee-o’-nee-os): ‘without beginning and end; that which always has been and always will be; without beginning, without end; never to cease.’ And ‘life’, zōē (dzo-ay'): is specifically ‘God’s kind of unending life.’ The question now is that did God ever know that the saved Adamic entity would commit sin after the spiritual regeneration? If His Omniscience knew this fact, why should He bestow a life unending unto the born again knowing fully well that it stood to be lost immediately the individual commits one sin? There is no way God would give an eternal life that stood to be lost. Prove to me that what God, through grace, gave was never eternality of God’s life and I will agree with Oyedepo that “once saved is not always saved.”Read More
