SALVATION IS POSSIBLE FOR ALL MEN


By Rev.Michael Benson Ajayi 
Luke 3:6 “And then all people will see the salvation sent from God.'"
The word ‘Salvation’ used in this scripture is the Greek  word  ‘soterion’  and it means defender or defense. It is likened to a legal counsel sent to defend on in a case against a person in a court of law.
      Sin is the contravention of God’s holy laws  and all it takes to be a sinner is to break one law . James 2:10-11 “For the person who keeps all of the laws except one is as guilty as a person who has broken all of God's laws.  For the same God who said, "You must not commit adultery," also said, "You must not murder." So if you murder someone but do not commit adultery, you have still broken the law”  therefore going by this principle nobody can have access to heaven through any of the world’s religions including religious Christianity which requires obeying laws instituted by founders and church elders .
       The only cure to the problem of sin is a unilateral and universal forgiveness and this can only be made possible by a savior .  This savior must be able to meet the demands of the laws of God and be able to serve as a substitute for mankind before the judge of the universe. He should also be able to bear the sins of many and carry the burdens of humanity.  He also must be able to serve as a mediator for mankind . Only God can fulfill these demands for he alone can forgive sins and He did this through the sacrifice of His symbol of authority (Jesus Christ)  over 2000 years ago.
    Salvation is a gift to all and so simple to be saved. It is more difficult to be a sinner than to be righteous . Salvation is as easy as acknowledging the need for a savior and consciously asking Jesus Christ to be your lord and savior,  I took this step on the 31th of December  1987 at the Victory Christian Church Lagos  and my life has not remained the same. Salvation is for all regardless of your sins , before God, sin does not exist in sizes , therefore , the so-called worst sinner is as qualified as the next person. Acts 2:21 says “And it shall be that whoever shall call upon the name of the Lord [invoking, adoring, and worshiping the Lord — Christ] shall be saved .” [Joel 2:28-32.] AMP the scripture says whosoever (terrorist ,rapist ,thieve ,child molester, drug baron, false prophet  etc)  there is no limit to who can be saved except Satan and demons . Rom 10:13 says For "Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved."  Salvation is as easy as calling on the name JESUS , wherever  you are now shout the name Jesus and salvation shall be yours . He is our defender in God’s righteous court . He declares us not guilty of any crime Satan – the accuser levels against. Jesus does not remind us of our sins rather He reminds us of the price that has been paid for our justification.  
   It is God’s will for all mankind to be saved , unfortunately , many will miss heaven by their choice to achieve salvation by their religious ways and self effort . The consciousness of the judgment day dwells in all of us through our conscience, however, only a savior can deliver us from the coming wrath of God upon mankind. God wants everyone to be saved and has made the process affordable to all ( 1Tim2:4,Titus 2:11-12, 2Pet 3:9,Rom 10:9)  
Prayer : Heavenly Father , forgive me of my sins against you, I believe Jesus Christ died and was raised again for my salvation .I receive as lord and savior and receive grace to overcome the works of unrighteousness in my life in Jesus’ name 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.

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 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...
