PROSTITUTES WILL GET INTO THE KINGDOM OF HEAVEN

 By Rev.Michael Benson Ajayi
        Matt 21:31” Which of the two did the will of the father? They replied, The first one. Jesus said to them, Truly I tell you, the tax collectors and the harlots will get into the kingdom of heaven before you.” AMP
Luke 13:23-24 "Then said one unto him, Lord, are there few that be saved? And he said unto them, Strive to enter in at the strait gate: for many, I say unto you, will seek to enter in, and shall not be able to enter.
      Many self-righteous folks will seek to enter the kingdom of God and shall not be able to enter not because God refused salvation to anyone.  God "is not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance" (2 Pet. 3:9). "The grace of God that brings salvation has appeared to all men . . ." (Titus. 2:11) It is the will of God for all of mankind to be saved. Jesus said the process of salvation is so easy that commercial sex workers would have a fair chance just as much as anyone else. Sinners may suffer the harmful consequences of sin on earth but escape the eternal consequences through faith in Christ. Self-righteous folks will fail to enter heaven because they think salvation is by self-effort.   
       Our loyalty to God will always demand work or some kind of effort however non of it is sufficient to gain salvation. Salvation is a free gift from God(Rom. 5:15);and we have to consciously resist any doctrine that tends to make it look otherwise ; this is what spiritual warfare is all about and its a good fight in which we are guaranteed overwhelming victory (1 Tim. 6:12) No matter what happens, we win.  Faith in Jesus' goodness is what determines our salvation .Our good deeds only benefits us and our communities;they are  of no relevance to our salvation (Gal 2:16).
     We do not have to live our lives trying to please God with the hope to enter heaven. Doing this exposes us to Satan’s antics who constantly tries to destroy our faith by always showing us our shortcomings. We have received the gift of salvation through faith in Jesus Christ and should earnestly hold on to this truth . This involves a life commitment to simply love your neighbor as yourself.
  An over devotion to religious activities will not lead to salvation. Satan attends religious gatherings too (Job1:6). Demon possessed persons preach about God, prophesy and work miracles too (Acts16:17) . But salvation is having a personal relationship with the Lord , it is not transferable . "You must be born again and those who hunger and thirst after righteousness shall be filled (Mt. 5:6). "Whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved." Regardless of what you have done, you have an unlimited access to God and he will never reject the repentant sinner. 
 As you receive Jesus Christ as saviour and read this now, receive freedom from every satanic stronghold as you call on the almighty name of Jesus .Amen.

BREAK EVIL FAMILY PATTERNS

Image
 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....

COMMON CAUSES OF DISUNITY.

 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 wa...

CONSEQUENCES OF LACK OF FAITH

Image
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...
