GOD is Same as Jesus; how could this be True?

It is unfortunate to see the success of the Devil to cause confusion in the midst of the Christians that GOD is same as Jesus. To understand the truth about this topic, it is important to know who is GOD, Jesus, and what is their relationship?

Today’s message would explain the truth if GOD is same as Jesus or not. I minister to you as a messenger of the LORD who was privileged to see GOD and Jesus. All my Bible references to explain the truth shall strictly come from the quotes of GOD and Jesus Christ only, so no bias!

Vision about the Great Judgement

On the first day of the ninth month of 2003, I saw a great vision about the end time. I saw the LORD with a descending golden crown to His shoulder and to the group on the left HE pronounced: “Satan has not been doing good so he is condemned to lake of fire”.

After this pronouncement, Satan and all his members were handcuffed automatically, full of bitterness and grieve without hope of liberty, they bow and shook their heads in sorrow.

The LORD pronounced to the second group: “Jesus has been doing good so He is victorious.” Jesus and all His members were dancing, jumping up and shouting the word ‘Victory’! There was a great joy in their midst.

Interpretation of this vision can be seen in my previous message titled; How would the Judgment Day look like?

3 key Observations in the Spectacular Vision

1. Everyone in that vision have the same look.

“So, God created man in His own image; in the image of God, He created him; male and female He created them.” (Genesis 1:27)

2. GOD was not the same as Jesus Christ.

3. Only GOD has the Authority for the final Judgement.

“I saw the dead, small and great, standing before God, and books were opened. Another book was opened, which is the Book of Life. And the dead were judged according to their works, by the things which were written in the books.” (Revelation 20:12)

Teaching About Holy Trinity is False!

The root cause of the expression that ‘GOD is same as Jesus‘ was traced to the ancient popular teaching of the Holy Trinity; God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit. This false teaching says GOD came to the world as Jesus.

The teaching contradicts itself that GOD, Jesus and Holy Spirit are three different persons but yet they are one person; GOD the Head. This teaching is demonic because there is no verse in the Bible where GOD or Jesus Christ substantiates this strange claim.

How can a father be a son to himself? And how can a son become the father of his father? It is a wrong teaching with the intention to create a false gospel.

Listen to Apostle Peter’s warning about false teaching: “But there were also false prophets among the people, even as there will be false teachers among you, who will secretly bring in destructive heresies, even denying the Lord who bought them, and bring on themselves swift destruction.” (2Peter2:1)

Read more about holy trinity in my message: Holy Trinity: Is the Doctrine from God or the Bishops?

GOD is Not the same as Jesus Christ

The following points are reference from the LORD to show that Jesus is not the same as GOD:

1. GOD’s Identity is different from Jesus

“And God spoke unto Moses, and said unto him, I am the LORD: And I appeared unto Abraham, unto Isaac, and unto Jacob, by the name of God Almighty, but by my name JEHOVAH was I not known to them.” (Exodus 6:2-3 kjv)

2. GOD Sent Jesus to Come

So, HE is a Master to Jesus Christ and it was not the LORD who came to die for our sins.

“And the Holy Spirit descended in bodily form like a dove upon Him, and a voice came from heaven which said, “You are My beloved Son; in You I am well pleased.” (Luke 3:22)

3. Holy Spirit hovered Mary and formed Son of God

“And the angel answered and said to her, “The Holy Spirit will come upon you, and the power of the Highest will overshadow you; therefore, also, that Holy One who is to be born will be called the Son of God.” (Luke 1:35)

If the Angel of GOD referred to Jesus as Son of God then why did some early elders in the church said He is God the Son?

4. The Plan of Salvation for man Originated from GOD

If Jesus came as the LORD then He would not give the expression below:

“Therefore, My Father loves Me, because I lay down My life that I may take it again.”

“No one takes it from Me, but I lay it down of Myself. I have power to lay it down, and I have power to take it again. This command I have received from My Father.” (John 10:17-18)

5. GOD spoke from Heaven during transfiguration

If Jesus was GOD, is the LORD’s expression below necessary?

“And a voice came out of the cloud, saying, “This is My beloved Son. Hear Him!” (Luke 9:35)

GOD is same as Jesus? No! Jesus is Not same as LORD

Jesus made us to understand many times that He has a Father and Christ never gave us the impression that He was the Father. Yes, He was full of authority but He never claimed to be the Almighty GOD!

1. Jesus did NOT Know everything about GOD

“Heaven and earth will pass away, but My words will by no means pass away. But of that day and hour no one knows, not even the angels of heaven, but My Father only.” (Matthew 24:35-36)

2. Jesus was a Messenger of GOD

“Jesus answered them and said, “My doctrine is not Mine, but His who sent Me. If anyone wants to do His will, he shall know concerning the doctrine, whether it is from God or whether I speak on My own authority.” (John 7: 16-17) This response from Jesus shows that He is lower and not equal to GOD.

“I came forth from the Father and have come into the world. Again, I leave the world and go to the Father.” (John 16:28)

3. Jesus Prays to GOD for Help

Don’t you see it to be a mad event if someone is praying to himself? Since we all know that Jesus is not mad then it implies that He is praying to someone superior to Him.

“He went a little farther and fell on His face, and prayed, saying, “O My Father, if it is possible, let this cup pass from Me; nevertheless, not as I will, but as You will.” (Matthew 26:39)

4. Jesus Gives Report of His Stewardship

“Jesus spoke these words, lifted up His eyes to heaven, and said: “Father, the hour has come. Glorify Your Son, that Your Son also may glorify You, “as You have given Him authority over all flesh, that He should give eternal life to as many as You have given Him.

And this is eternal life, that they may know You, the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom You have sent. I have glorified You on the earth. I have finished the work which You have given Me to do…” (John chapter 17)

With this reference from Jesus Christ, it shocks me to hear people believe the false teaching that God and Jesus is the same Person.

5. Jesus always Give Thanks to GOD

“…And Jesus lifted up His eyes and said, “Father, I thank You that You have heard Me…” (John 11:41)

The statement of Jesus shows that the personality of GOD is different from His. So, God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit is a cock-and-bull story.

6. Jesus’ Commandments exalt GOD and not Himself

“Jesus said to him,” ‘You shall love the LORD your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind.” (Matthew 22:37)

If Jesus was Yahweh as claimed by the false teachers then He would have said: “You shall love Me with all your heart…”

7. Jesus Shout to GOD in Grieve

“And about the ninth hour Jesus cried out with a loud voice, saying, “Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani?” that is, “My God, My God, why have You forsaken Me?”

Did you think it is necessary for Jesus Christ to shout to anyone if truly GOD died for our sins on the cross? If Jesus and GOD are the same person then why did Jesus Christ shout to God on the cross?

The 12 cogent points above are original statements from GOD and Jesus Christ to show that they are not the same person and not equal in authority or position. Jesus openly told the world that GOD is the Greatest.

God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit is a demonic teaching that cannot be truly substantiated with genuine verses from the Word of GOD or from the Word of Jesus written in the original Bible.

Is Jesus Christ our Lord?

Jesus is Lord while GOD is LORD. If the Jewish wives call their husband ‘lord’ as a form of respect. And we chose to call the Judge in the court of law ‘my lord’ then it is not a mistake to call Jesus Lord.

The LORD gave Jesus Christ a great authority than anyone else, so Jesus is Lord. And we should also acknowledge that Yahweh is LORD of Lords.

Jesus re-affirmed judges as gods and Himself as Son of GOD in the book of John chapter 10 verse 33 to 36, but that does not equate judges or Jesus to be the same as Jehovah who is GOD of gods!

“For the LORD your God is God of gods and Lord of lords, the great God, mighty and awesome…” (Deuteronomy 10:17)

So, the unbiased explanation above with respect to references from the LORD and Jesus Christ answers the question “God is same as Jesus?” to be NO!!    

To Stop Sinning? 10 Amazing Ways to Cease Repeated Sin

To Stop Sinning? 10 Amazing Ways to Cease Repeated Sin

Sin is an output of disobedience, so to stop sinning means ability to resist temptation and the consistent obedience to the LORD’s commandment.

You might be so worried with many questions such as: Is it possible to be free from sin? Why can’t I stop sinning despite confessing Jesus as my Saviour? How can I stop this mess I hate doing? Don’t worry my friend, you’ll get the right answers now…

Today’s message explains the powerful steps to take for you to stop sinning.

The Plans of the Devil for Christians

I am given the authority by the Almighty LORD to tell you the truth about this topic and I owe no apology to the Devil or to all the popular false Prophets/Pastors in our midst.

1. The Devil does not want us to stop sinning.

2. He sent his servants to deceive us with false doctrines, for example; ‘we need to confess our sins every religious service days of the week for repeated forgiveness because our flesh can’t be holy’.

3. Satan is distracting our attention from the Mighty Power of the LORD through civilization and modernization.

4. He wants us to be lukewarm till the second coming of Jesus Christ so that the LORD can chase us out of His Beautiful Kingdom.

The LORD’s warning is clearly stated: “…So then, because you are lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will vomit you out of My mouth.” (Revelation 3:16)

5. Just the way he was successful to deceive the Jews that the dead body of Jesus was stolen, a similar trend in our midst involves telling us lies that it is impossible to stop sinning but the grace of Jesus would take us to heaven.

6. The Devil is doing a great crusade to shift the faith of Christians from the word of GOD to leaders of the world, science, technological inventions and power of self.

Jesus’ prophecy about this modern generation is worrisome as recorded in the book of Luke chapter 18 verse 8: “…Nevertheless, when the Son of Man comes, will He really find faith on the earth?” (Luke 18:8)

7. If we all believe that to stop sinning is impossible then all names would be wiped off from the Book of Life which is the Devil’s greatest plan.

“And the dragon was enraged with the woman, and he went to make war with the rest of her offspring, who keep the commandments of God and have the testimony of Jesus Christ.” (Revelation 12:17)

The Plan of GOD for Everybody

The LORD wants us to stop sinning and His plan is to receive us into His Kingdom for eternal enjoyment. So, the Blood of Jesus is the last sacrifice that takes away the guilt from our lives provided we obey His commandments.

The LORD told me in a vision to tell everyone that He is ready to forgive you your sins, don’t bother about the size of the sin because He is ready to forgive you if you are ready to follow Him with all your heart.

10 Powerful Ways to Stop Sinning as a Christian

Don’t be discouraged if you find yourself stumbling into the sin you promised the LORD not to commit anymore. Tell the Devil you won’t be swayed by the wind of unbelief. Please follow the counsel below and you would have peace and permanent victory to stop sinning:

1. Pray for God’s Power

I wept bitterly one day during my prayers and the Holy Spirit told me: “You confessed the sin but didn’t ask for power to stop committing the sin”. I prayed for the Power and I received. Your power cannot stop you from sinning and if you are ready for the course of holiness, the LORD won’t delay to empower you.

2. Depart from Old Friends

You cannot stop sinning if you relate with people who does not live a righteous life.

3. Leave the Church

The gathering that preaches less about holiness or salvation is not for you. Churches that allow worldly styles is not fit for you.

4. Set Yourself for Absolute Sacrifice

Miracle cannot stop you from sinning. Your absolute readiness and preparedness to follow Jesus by denying yourself things of this world is vital for your victory.

5. Read and Understand the Bible

Gone are those day we read our Pastors. This time you read and understand the Word of GOD in the Bible through the help of the Holy Spirit. Misconception of the scriptures by false teachers had put many in the bondage of sin.

6. Don’t be Overconfidence

For instance; your faith in God does not give you the freedom to welcome your ex-girlfriend to your room – you can’t escape the sexual sin! So, don’t stay in an environment that can trigger your weakness. Destroy all the books, magazine, music or videos that could trigger you to sin.

7. Copy the Style of Jesus Christ

Sin does not come without temptation. So, when the rough times come, start singing songs of worship to the LORD or recite the bible verses you memorized. This step works for me perfectly every day.

8. Fellowship with GOD Regularly

This would give you spiritual growth and strength. Then you would receive power from the LORD regularly through His Holy Spirit. This was the secret of Jesus when He prays every night when on earth. No more excuse if you really want to stop sinning.

9. Love GOD with all Your Heart

If you build a loving relationship with the LORD (through obedience to all His instructions) then you would always overcome the Devil’s temptation.

10. To stop sinning is your Responsibility

It is not God’s role to come down from heaven to collect the bottle of beer or the drug syringes from you. It is not His duty to chase out the sexual partner or to twist your tongue from lies and other similar acts you might carelessly do every day.

Always remember that it is your responsibility to follow His plan of Salvation for your freedom from sins.

“What shall we say then? Shall we continue in sin that grace may abound? Certainly not! How shall we who died to sin live any longer in it?” (Romans 6:1-2)

 

To stop sinning I recommend you follow the steps above and I assure you that no more repeated sins could hurt you. Your freedom from the stronghold of sin would be absolute in Jesus’ name.

Memorize Bible: 20 Ways to Learn Scriptures by Heart!

Memorize Bible: 20 Ways to Learn Scriptures by Heart!

To memorize Bible means quoting the word of God for the benefit of yourself or people around you without opening the Bible.

This powerful act does not have a thumb rule on how to learn it perfectly because our ability to memorize bible is not the same. But today’s message highlights many practical steps that could help you learn scriptures by heart. I would also share the powerful benefits with you!

I would love to share the testimony of Rebecca Moffitt related to memorizing the Bible:

“The miracle is what happened (and is still happening) in my mind. It’s like the links of my chains began to fall off, one at a time. Where I used to worry, I have peace. Previously I used to be suspicious, but now I have certainty that all is well. Before, I used to dwell on my stronghold, but now forget to think about it.

Verses like, “…But each one is tempted when, by his own evil desire, he is dragged away and enticed,” (that was me!) and, “…Humbly accept the word planted in you which can save you,” began living and working within me!

I have an amazing new weapon in this battle. The memorization worked to occupy my mind when I replaced those negative thoughts with my daily scripture.  James says, “…Then after desire has conceived, it gives birth to sin…” 

Well, desire didn’t have a chance to conceive when I had my weapon, “The Sword of The Spirit,” at hand and was willing to use it. I’m an analyser (can’t you tell?) so I don’t want to overanalyse how this process began freeing me in a way I’ve never been free before, but God was answering my prayer and showing me the power of “His perfect word that gives freedom.” “ 

20 Helpful Steps to Memorize Bible Verses!

1. Have confidence that your memory size of about 2.5 million gigabytes can store the verses you intend to keep.

2. Pray to the LORD to Bless your efforts.

3. Start memorization with short verses.

4. Memorize Bible verses that are relevant to what you are going through now.

5. Write down the verses many times until you miss no word anymore.

7. Turn off all media and recite the bible verses aloud!

8. Paste the memory verses on the wall, in your car, laundry, computer background and put the cards in your pocket.

9. If you are talented in music then memorize the scriptural verses by singing it.

10. If you choose to memorize bible verses thirty minutes daily, then do it in a quiet place without any form of distraction.

11. Understand the context and content of the bible verses. So, check dictionary or commentaries if necessary.

12. Start memorization of the keywords in the bible verse and very soon the complete verse would be stored properly to your brain.

13. Avoid stress and anxiety. You can’t easily remember your memory verses if you are tensed.

14. Long verse is best memorized bit by bit.

15. Listen to the audio bible of the verses often and it would help you speed up memorization.

16. The use of good Bible memory app can help you memorize bible verses easily.

17. Read the verse aloud twenty times, then speak the verse from memory ten times. And repeat process for fifteen minutes.

18. Envision the bible verses you want to memorize in your mind. The visual capture in your heart is a powerful feature.

19. Memorize Bible verses with your people at the family altar.

20. Review every memorized scripture once in a while.

I would love to say at this point that I don’t dispute the fact that there are some cases where the Holy Spirit could help you remember the scriptures without your effort of memorization.

Please, this act is not meant for show-off or to impress anyone. Scriptural memorization is to help you and your neighbour for the glory of the LORD.

Dead to Sin; 7 Steps to Live a Sinless Life!

Posted by Feb 28, 2021 Holy Word, Church, Gospel Evangelism 7 Comments
Dead to Sin; 7 Steps to Live a Sinless Life!

Dead to sin means that your soul is not controlled by the influence of sinful demons. It is a status of freedom from the bondage of sin.

We are surrounded by sins! Iniquities in the government, society and in many churches controlled by false Pastors or Prophets. I was confused when some leaders who were expected to uphold righteousness told me that no one can be free from sin. Dead to sin looks impossible!

However, God hates sin and does not want us to perish inside the stronghold of sin. He sent Jesus Christ to the world for the last Blood sacrifice to deliver us from the bondage of sin. Can Jesus make you dead to sin?

Today’s message explains the basic steps to take for a sinless life.

7 Ways to Become Dead to Sin

1. Marry the Bible

Going to church, participating in doctrinal rites, pumping your money to pastor for godly forgiveness or rendering service for the progress of the Gospel does not make you dead to sin. The secret code is reading and understanding the Word of God.

2. Make Covenant of Obedience

You cannot be dead to sin if you don’t make covenant with the LORD to obey every word and every instruction from HIM. Your absolute readiness to follow the teachings of Jesus Christ is a strong step.

3. Invite the Holy Spirit

Having confess your sins and choose to give all your life to the LORD to control, the next step is to invite the Spirit of GOD to dwell in you permanently. He releases Power of Holiness to you every time you encounter temptation and you’ll become dead to sin.

4. Don’t Copy the World

Be bold to say ‘No’ to all the popular non-scriptural practices going on in the church and around you. Raise a red card to anyone or any technology that could influence you to live a lukewarm life.

“If you were of the world, the world would love its own. Yet because you are not of the world, but I chose you out of the world, therefore the world hates you.” (John 15:19)

5. Always Ask Yourself

You’ll become dead to sin if you cultivate the lifestyle of asking yourself this question: ‘If Jesus Christ is presently in my situation, what will He do?’ Jesus Christ is in you to give the quick answer and His response will surely make you sinless.

“Jesus answered and said to him, “If anyone loves Me, he will keep My word; and My Father will love him, and We will come to him and make Our home with him.” (John 14:23)

6. Offer Your Body as a Living Sacrifice

Many people could not be sinless because they don’t want any short-term pains or sufferings but they want to enjoy all the worldly deceptive entertainment and acquire wealth and fame by all means.

“For it is better, if it is the will of God, to suffer for doing good than for doing evil.” (1 Peter 3:17)

7. Timeless Worship

Jesus was dead to sin when on earth because He worship the LORD every day and night. Sin could not have its way into heaven because the angels worship the LORD regularly. Always worship the LORD steadily in your heart and you’ll become sinless.

 

If the LORD told me to preach to the world that HE would forgive any sin provided the sinner is ready to follow HIM, then I believe GOD is not happy seeing anyone in sin. I follow the steps above and I have testimonies every day!

I urge you to follow the powerful ways above and you would surely be dead to sin.

Gifts of the Holy Spirit are divine attributes given to you as a reward for giving your life to the LORD through Jesus Christ. Every child of God is given the gift but not all knows about this reward and its usage!

Today’s message highlights some of the gifts of the Holy Spirit and its usefulness.

13 Gifts of the Holy Spirit

The most popular number of gifts is nine as mentioned in some verses in the twelfth chapter of the first letter written by Paul to the church in Corinth. The Holy Spirit have many spiritual gifts but the popular ones known to us include:

1. The Word of Knowledge

Christians with this gift might be illiterate but would be a teacher to the professors. Always filled with insights on how problems can be solved. Ability to interpret scriptures according to the mind of the LORD. Such people can invent and innovate!

2. Word of Wisdom

Ability to solve complicated issues. Brilliant intelligence beyond human reasoning to offer solutions. The key that opens the great doors of blessings and victory.

3. Gift of Prophecy

5. Gift of Healings

It’s a helpful gift during evangelism. It made the ministry of Jesus to spread very fast. No ailment is incurable!

6. The Working of Miracles

This gift of the Holy Spirit tumbles the natural conditions to a spectacular status. For example; Jesus raised Lazarus from the death.

7. Discerning of Spirits

It is the divine ability to differentiate the presence and action of demonic spirits and the Spirit of GOD.

Bible Verses of Gifts of the Holy Spirit

Joel chapter 2 verse 28: “And it shall come to pass afterward That I will pour out My Spirit on all flesh; Your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, your old men shall dream dreams, your young men shall see visions.”

First Corinthians chapter 12: “…But the manifestation of the Spirit is given to each one for the profit of all: for to one is given the word of wisdom through the Spirit, to another the word of knowledge through the same Spirit… “

“To another faith by the same Spirit, to another gifts of healings by the same Spirit, to another the working of miracles, to another prophecy, to another discerning of spirits, to another different kinds of tongues, to another the interpretation of tongues…”

“And God has appointed these in the church: first apostles, second prophets, third teachers, after that miracles, then gifts of healings, helps, administrations, varieties of tongues.”

What is the Purpose of the Spiritual Gifts?

9. Nothing would ever happen in your life without a previous clue

10. No false prophets can either deceive or dupe you!

The gifts of the Holy Spirit come from the LORD only. Paul advised the Corinthians to earnestly desire the best gifts, but don’t be shocked if GOD does not give you according to your desire. HE knows the best for you and all gifts from the Holy Spirit is best for the right application.

Your spiritual gifts are not meant for boasting or for selfish gains. They are given to you to help people around you to know more about GOD and His Goodness.
