JESUS CHRIST IN THE TRINITY (1)




Rev.Michael Benson Ajayi 
      Ps 138:2 kjv “I will worship toward thy holy temple, and praise thy name for thy lovingkindness and for thy truth: for thou hast magnified thy word above all thy name.”
   The clause ‘thou hast magnified ‘ is the Hebrew word ‘gadal’ which means  to twist i.e. to be causatively made large in various senses, as in body, mind, estate or honor, also in pride. Prophet David received a revelation of the preeminence of the word of God and the messianic mission of the word of God on earth .On the judgment day, it shall be God's word against others .By the above definition,in a divine twist of events God gave His word a body, mind , estate , honor and glory to operate on earth .
         The scriptures in psalm 138:2 describes the word of God as the truth , John 17:17 says the same and John 1:1-4 NIV “In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.  He was with God in the beginning. Through him all things were made; without him nothing was made that has been made.”  And verse 14 says the word became flesh in line with the messianic prophesy in Psalm 138:2 . Jesus Christ is the word of God through which the universe was made.
        When the religious folks of His time questioned His divinity He  said in John 10:34 "… Is it not written in your law, I said, Ye are gods?" Psalm 82:6 ….ye are children of the most High. “  Man was made in God’s image . If you visit a farm and saw a family of sheep consisting of the father, mother and children;when asked to give a report on what one saw in the farm, you will say ' I saw sheep' , The name of a thing is a summary of its characteristics and essence . Likewise , God shares the same characteristics  with His Word. That’s why Jesus could forgive sins , something only God can do (Mark2:5,9) .By His all powerfulness God can  become whatever He wants to become , He is not answerable to anyone and everyone answers to Him      
   Man exists in a finite (measurable) realm while God exist in the infinite (immeasurable) realm, this makes it difficult for the finite mind to have a firm grasp of the infinite. If God created the universe (including the  knowledge of science, space and time) at a particular time, it is only logical to say that He must have existed before space , time and scientific knowledge. He is bigger than the boundless universe. And He created everything for a purpose to fulfill an ultimate goal. Rev 4:11 TLB ….” for you have created all things. They were created and called into being by your act of will." They were created according to the law of “systems”.
         A system is a set of detailed methods, procedures and routines created to carry out a specific activity and perform a duty, or solve a problem. It is an organized, purposeful structure that consists of interrelated and interdependent elements (components, entities, factors, members, parts etc.). These elements continually influence one another (directly or indirectly) to maintain their activity and the existence of the system, in order to achieve the goal of the system.( Business Dictionary)
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 saviour and receive the Holy Spirit and power for uncommon excellence .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...
