YOU ARE NOT INFERIOR TO ANYONE

By Rev. Michael Benson Ajayi
Gal 3:28” There is neither Jew nor Greek, slave nor free, male nor female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus”
      Jewish preference in the administration of the daily sacrifices in the temple as prescribed in the laws of Moses made non-Jews appear inferior to the Jews. It was a crime for a non-Jew to enter Jewish  designated areas in the temple, it carried the death penalty. 
      Jesus changed all this during His earthly ministry as seen in His meeting with the Canaanite woman in Matt.15:22 and gentles in John 12:21 .Jesus accommodated people of all nations and culture  .  
          His death, resurrection and eventual universal  rule broke down the middle wall of partition between the religious and the non religious people of the world. The physical wall of partition was indicative of the division in the temple in Jerusalem.. The wounds on Jesus’ body on the cross abolished the barrier by removing the law and thus the partition thereby opening the door for all and sundry to come in to the house of God.
          God does not change the non religious persons into a religious persons, instead He  made a brand new specie of human beings known as the church or body of Christ. Whosoever is in Christ is a new creature the old degenerated, downgraded human status is no more.  It is like grafting a branch of a tree into another tree , the outcome is a fruit that tastes like the tree into which the branch was grafted into . We are grafted into Jesus Christ and we are no longer living by our strength but through Christ with a new glorious identity.  The church of Jesus Christ has no such thing as Jew or Gentile, slave or free,black or white,majority or minority we are new creations in Christ , the spiritual and physical body of Christ .(1 cor 12:27  ). 
        You are in Him and as important as the next person and you don’t need to live your life to impress anyone in other to be acceptable by God. God is satisfied  with you in Christ Jesus and you aren't inferior to any religious person. Receive grace now as you read this ,to break every form of inferiority complex in your life in Jesus name, amen

BREAK EVIL FAMILY PATTERNS

 By Rev.Michael Benson Ajayi  Titus 1:12 -14 "One of themselves,   even a prophet of their own, said, The Cretians   are alway liars, evil beasts, slow bellies.  This  witness is true. Wherefore rebuke them sharply,  that they may be sound in the faith;  Not giving  heed to Jewish fables, and commandments of  men, that turn from the truth."       The church in Crete was in disarray and the apostle assigned Titus to go and put things in order . On investigation it was discovered the church suffered from a vicious cycle of evil family  patterns. They were not enjoying the fruits of the salvation experience . An example of evil family patterns is that of King David who defiled Uriah's wife ,murdered him and his son Absalom murdered his brother Amnon (2Sam13) dethroned him and defiled his concubines openly (2Samuel16). His son Amnon defiled his sister Tamar (2Sam.13) and so on yet David was the anointed of the Lord.     Many christians suffer evil family patterns ( repeated d

CONSEQUENCES OF LACK OF FAITH

By Rev. Michael Benson Ajayi " Be careful then, dear brothers and sisters. Make sure that your own hearts are not evil and unbelieving, turning you away from the living God." Hebrews 3:12 NLTBible  ' Then he said to Thomas, “Put your finger here, and look at my hands. Put your hand into the wound in my side. Don’t be faithless any longer. Believe!”John 20:27 NLTBible     Faith is the guarantee of the manifestation an unseen reality . It is the reason behind the hope we have in God and the fulfilment of his promises. It is the substance ( title deed) of things hoped for ,the evidence of things not seen (Hebrew 11:1) .The Bible warns against not having faith in God. Lack of faith is equal to calling God a liar and untrustworthy. This type of reasoning turns us into enemy's of God.    The gospel is so much under attack by the activities of faithless religionists . They plan to replace the holy scripture with humanistic dogma. The danger in this is the relative approach t

COMMON CAUSES OF DISUNITY.

Image
 By Rev Michael Benson Ajayi "Even some men from your own group will rise up and distort the truth in order to draw a following."Acts 20:30 NLT   "An angry person starts fights; a hot-tempered person commits all kinds of sin." Proverbs 29:22 NLTBible        Disunity is defined as : disagreement and conflict within a group. It is the greatest hindrance to the promotion of the gospel of Jesus Christ. Disunity creates an avenue for Satan to promote sin.       The causes of disunity are not farfetched ,they include : Unhealthy Crave for power or self- promotion. Whenever there is an unhealthy pursuit of influence in a family or group it results in resistance. Self-promotion gives birth to unfair practices and injustices. In Numbers 12: 1-15  Moses' sister Miriam and Aaron rebelled against him desiring to rule by force and in Numbers 16 :1-35 Korah led an insurrection against Moses desiring to be part of leadership. In both cases ,God was not pleased with the rebels
