WHERE ARE THE GODS III- The conclusion of the matter.

The great teacher and the wisest king who ever lived, carefully observed life and all the machinations of man and reached the conclusion that all amounts to vanity. In the peak of man's iniquity we seek to answer the question: where are the gods?

From the two previous volumes on this subject, we see that man's abstract and tangible gods have grossly failed him: Philosophy, logic, so called primodial beings and ancestral spirits. There is the incontrovertible reality of the existence of certain supernatural elements that have had a strong influence on the civilizations of man in times past. That they are still influencing the trajectory of man's endevours is no excusable fact. However, the issue to settle is that as much as they have defined or given form to the present cosmos, there still remains providing, once and for all, a solution to man's insatiable hunger for a fellowship with the supernatural. It is rather comical to believe in deities who can not provide a panacea for man's disease called "corruption" but amplify the problem, masking in in elaborate ceremonies and rites.

The failing politics, economies, families, religious systems et cetera, all allude to the futility of the efforts of the gods (whether they be our own mental contraptions or some spiritual beings) to keep us enclosed in their thick cloud of ignorance and entrapped in their maze of confusion. Very gradually, the world is wakening to the knowledge of the source of all that was, is and will ever be- the one true God. He is not the essence of some religion as some wiish to see it. Rather, he is a personal God who wants a personal relationship with his creation! You can not find him in any religion because religion is a system that derives from elaborate laws, methods, deceptions and coercing. He is the one revealed in every awe of nature, the one revealed in the greatest awe of all eternity, Jesus, the anointed on e and His anointing. Every believer who has broken free from the shackles of religion, tradition and mechanical Christianity, understands the depth of what I'm talking about. Every babe has the prospect of growing into the fulness of this knowledge and every one who does not believe is invited to have a tiny, little faith and believe.

Satan and his cohorts have sought to keep us in the abbys of ignorance. Praise God for redemption. Now the conclusion of the whole matted: Fear God and keep his command for this is the whole duty of a man (Eccl 12:13).

The Grace of Our Lord Jesus, the love of God and communion with the Spirit

On the Grace of our Lord, the Father's love and the communion of the Spirit in the life of the Believer. 2Cor 13:14 is a portion of Scripture quoted so often in church that the mention of it brings closing of service or benediction to mind. In this portion of Scripture which indeed is a prayer, is hidden an eternally powerful truth. It is my confidence that the Spirit of God by the will of God will shed light on our spirits as we seek the light of this truth, embrace it and apply it daily in our walk with God. It says "the Grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Love of God and the sweet fellowship of the Holy Spirit be with you all". What a prayer! First it is seen in this prayer, THE WORD, THE FATHER and THE SPIRIT. Once upon a time, in the beginning of time, there was a convocation and in that meeting, Elohim, was there with The Logos and His Pneuma, and the result was creation. What if there is a creative mystery embedded in this prayer in the life of a believer? What ...

Secrets of Divine actions.

This is a sequel to the last post on The Ways of God. I laid some foundations that are necessary to thoroughly understanding this teaching. You can read up THE WAYS OF GOD to catch on. God the Father is the most important revelation the new testament believer must catch. This revelation is the very core of the ministry of Jesus, while he was on earth and today in the lives of believers. The gospel has one objective which is to reveal to us the person and character of the Father. A man may be introduced to a child as being his father but it takes more than an introduction to have a family relationship. The child will only begin to relate well with this person the more the child comes to know this person. My emphasis being on the Word PERSON. I posed some questions in the concluding part of my last post. We will use them as a line to guide us to our destination. God bless you as you undertake this journey of the Word with me. I celebrate you. What drives God's divine actions is wh...

On Fear, Doubt and Unbelief

Faith is central in the Christian life. The bible says in Heb 11:6 that it is impossible to please God without faith. Pleasing Him is being accepted of Him. This means that though the sinner has been vindicated by the blood of Jesus, his believing in that sacrifice and its efficacy in his favor, makes him acceptable to God. His faith pleases God. The righteousness of God imputed to man in Christ by faith is how we please God. Scripture also says that this man who has so pleased God should live by the same means by which he pleased God (Hab 2:4; Rom 1:17; Gal 3:11; Heb 10:38). Col 2:6 says that we must continue our walk in Christ AS as we received Him (in the first place). You have pleased God. Your faith in the sacrifice of the Lamb and in the work of redemption  and all it represents for you, has made you "...accepted in the beloved" (Eph 1:6). You maintain this state of favor with God by living in the consciousness of it. This is living BY FAITH.   In our faith life how...
