NO CONTRADICTION, NO CONTROVERSY!

GROW IN GRACE

From Sam-Best Ewruje, an able minister of the New Testament, not of man nor by man, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but by the will of God through the Grace and Mercy of Christ given unto me. Abundance of Grace and Gift of righteousness by Grace be unto you in the Name of our Lord Jesus Christ. Please be patient to read. It will set you free for life!

One of the perennial lies of the devil is that the Bible contradicts itself. It says one thing in one place and in another place it says something else. So let us lay this myth to rest forever. God says the secret things belong to God and the things which are revealed are for us and for our children. People especially Christians have to come to the knowledge of this fundamental truth so they can minister effectively to others and not be confused by questions posed by those who choose not to believe or those who want to enter into debates of which they already have a mind set about. The Scripture is not about interpretation in whatever form whether philosophical, intellectual, psychological or theological dimensions. Indeed Peter declares that the Scripture is not of any PRIVATE INTERPRETATION. It is not by force but by choice. You either believe what God says or you do not. Those who try to contest God think that He can’t do anything because they are still going about their normal lives and do not think that this God is powerful enough to stuff out their breath in a minute. They do not appreciate that the Lord is patient and giving men long rope of mercy so they can repent. In defiance, they debate the Living God, our Father sideways, back and forth.

2 Peter 1

¹⁹We have also a more sure word of prophecy; whereunto ye do well that ye take heed, as unto a light that shineth in a dark place, until the day dawn, and the day star arise in your hearts:

²⁰Knowing this first, that no prophecy of the scripture is of any private interpretation.

²¹For the prophecy came not in old time by the will of man: but holy men of God spake as they were moved by the Holy Ghost.

When you read a couple of verses up, Peter knew what he was talking about. He went through the mill through satanic attacks. He was sifted but He knew that it was the Lord that saved him, not his craftiness or knowledge or expertise in scriptures. Peter says that we saw the Lord face to face. We heard the voice of God from heaven but he cautioned that above all these subjective experiences through trials, thick and thin that there is a more SURE WORD OF PROPHECY. He said take these words of prophecy hook, line and sinker. They are not for debate or analysis according to our subjective knowledge. They are SURE and CERTAIN words. Peter said despite all our private experiences, that we should all take heed to these words and hold them dearly close to our hearts until they begin to shine forth in our lives. You will see in a place that Peter said that only the word endures forever. All other flamboyant earthly glamour or fig leaves glory will cease but he says that the glory of the word will never cease. This is a guy who was sifted as wheat by satan. He would have lost it but for Jesus who prayed for him that his faith would not fail. So he knew what he was talking about.

1 Peter 1

²³Being born again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, by the word of God, which liveth and abideth for ever.

²⁴For all flesh is as grass, and all the glory of man as the flower of grass. The grass withereth, and the flower thereof falleth away:

²⁵But the word of the Lord endureth for ever. And this is the word which by the gospel is preached unto you.

We do not assess our spirituality by subjective stuff happening around us eg wealth, affluence, possession which many seems to show as evidence of God in their lives these days. God says He causes His rain to shine on the just and the unjust. He is not like man. He loves everyone equally. Some people have a mindset and do not see salvation for a notorious person but think that the softer person seems to be more entitled to be preached to and to be saved because they seem more appealing.

So why do people think that God contradicts Himself in his word? Good question. Let the theologians flex their analytical muscles. The first thing is that God is God all by Himself, whether you think so or not. The other thing is that God loves everyone equally. He is an all inclusive God. He wants everyone saved. So whatever state you are as human being or whatever state you find yourself, God loves you equally as He love the man who goes to church every day. You will find a place in His word for you because of His mercy. So God says He wrote the Scriptures as they are because every living being will be subject to His mercy. No one can boast of any personal attribute why God paid for his Salvation except by His mercy that He sent Jesus to die for all mankind. No one can interpret the Scripture and say it is because, I pray daily or give tithe or I have been good all my life or have kept God’s commandment as it is written in the Bible that I got saved and I am where I am today. The gospel is that everyone was heading for hell but Jesus came to turn everyone from that hell. Some people think that those who are now Christians, who have received Christ are judging them and condemning them. No! That is not the gospel. Some of us Christian do actually fall in that trap. The word of God says that people on earth, everyone is condemned already before Jesus came. Jesus came to reverse that condemnation and going to hell if only you can just accept that simple mercy and receive Jesus as your Lord and saviour. So God concluded everyone no matter who you are under unbelief so He can have mercy upon all by Jesus Christ so that men can be saved. That goes for both Jews and Gentiles. It goes for the Jews who have tried to keep the law of God all their lives and the rest of us Gentiles who are considered as dogs and do not know God at all. Just reverse God and you get dog. It is this mercy of God through his eternal Love that he has come to extend and preach to all by Jesus Christ.

Romans 11

²⁹For the gifts and calling of God are without repentance.

³⁰For as ye in times past have not believed God, yet have now obtained mercy through their unbelief: (BELIEVERS NOW WERE SOMETIME PAST UNBELIEVERS)

³¹Even so have these also now not believed, that through your mercy they also may obtain mercy.

³²For God hath concluded them all in unbelief, that he might have mercy upon all.

³³O the depth of the riches both of the wisdom and knowledge of God! how unsearchable are his judgments, and his ways past finding out!

³⁴For who hath known the mind of the Lord? or who hath been his counsellor?

³⁵Or who hath first given to him, and it shall be recompensed unto him again?

³⁶For of him, and through him, and to him, are all things: to whom be glory for ever. Amen.

So this simple Gospel is to all men – Jews, Gentiles, Muslims, Hindus, Sikh, gays, lesbians, those gripped in any vice, grass root people, divorced, married, double parent, single parent,  those with fathers, the fatherless, widowed, youth, children, adolescent, elderly, the vulnerable etc. God loves them all equally and wants all of them to be saved. So God is not in the business of condemnation, exclusion or damnation now. He is in the business of reconciling the world to Himself. He does not want anyone to perish. Those who are in Christ now should preach the Love of God with this heart of reconciliation to God and His Christ, not you. That way you do not become a stumbling block to salvation for anyone. Just point them to Jesus and let them make an informed choice. He is not counting men’s sin against them. Jesus has been made sin for all men.

1 Timothy 2

¹I exhort therefore, that, first of all, supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks, be made for all men;

²For kings, and for all that are in authority; that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and honesty.

³For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Saviour;

⁴Who will have all men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth.

2 Corinthians 5

¹⁷Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new.

¹⁸And all things are of God, who hath reconciled us to himself by Jesus Christ, and hath given to us the ministry of reconciliation;

¹⁹To wit, that God was in Christ, reconciling the world unto himself, not imputing their trespasses unto them; and hath committed unto us the word of reconciliation.

²⁰Now then we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God did beseech you by us: we pray you in Christ’s stead, be ye reconciled to God.

²¹For he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him.

Halleluya. How can you neglect so great a salvation! If you are not saved, why don’t you receive what Jesus says.

BREAKING THE YOKE OF “APES OBEY” MENTALITY

GROW IN GRACE, GOD IS GOOD

From Sam-Best Ewruje, an able minister of the New Testament, not of man nor by man, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but by the will of God through the Grace and Mercy of Christ given unto me. Abundance of Grace and Gift of righteousness by Grace be unto you in the Name of our Lord Jesus Christ. Please be patient to read. It will set you free for life!

The Lord just taught me in His word that He is not a draconian dictator as most people try to portray Him.  Where did we get this “apes obey”, mentality from. Some have used it to put others in bondage and subservient in the name of authority and humility. By this also many merchandise the flock. So if you are not saying “yes sir, yes sir, then you are disobedient to authority. It is good to respect others but not as a mean to earn things from God. These things are not Scriptural in New Testament Covenant Ministry. Jesus even said that you do not wield authority like the Gentiles (ie apes obey or orders is order type of relationship). He said those in authority in the Kingdom should be as servants. Jesus said as a leader in the Kingdom, do not EXERCISE AUTHORITY OVER!!

Matthew 20

²⁵But Jesus called them unto him, and said, Ye know that the princes of the Gentiles exercise dominion over them, and they that are great exercise authority upon them.

²⁶But it shall not be so among you: but whosoever will be great among you, let him be your minister;

²⁷And whosoever will be chief among you, let him be your servant:

²⁸Even as the Son of man came not to be ministered unto, but to minister, and to give his life a ransom for many.

God is Sovereign alright but He is not a dictator. Many have portrayed God as if He is saying you must do this and that before you can be blessed. You must obey or this and that. The blessing is in obedience and such theological diversions. However, this is not true. The Bible says you must do according to all that is written in this book of Law to be successful. No man could do that. Only the Lord Jesus has done this. He is the successful One and He passed this success upon us freely. The predicament we have today is that we have not really grasp the revelation of what Jesus did and so many have paraded gospels of how to do this and that, 10 steps to get things from God, course 101 ways to get God’s attention etc.   All have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God and that includes His blessings. Our works are as filthy rags. Only Jesus makes us count. The Bible also says that if you do all the laws of God and miss one, you are guilty and face wrath. So if you want to gauge your spirituality by tithing and how much you do for God, how much you pray, how much you give then you will always be under condemnation. As my friend Leslie Assih said during a discussion about the move of God and His Grace in Christ Jesus today, he said that the Lord made him aware long ago that if he has to do anything to get the blessing of God, then Christ means nothing. This is the hard truth.  Most people who preach such gospel will face trial because of persecution due to such revelation but that is the old devil’s trick. The devil does not want men to hear such good news of the perfect law of liberty so he would attack such people so many gullible ones will say where is the evidence and makes it difficult for people to receive such truths. Imagine Paul doing many great works and yet face so much hardship. In this age, he would be pursued from the church because he did not have the type of prosperity or clout or followers etc. Paul led to salvation of many but like Jesus he had very few that really stuck to and supported him. Paul like Jesus even went to a trial alone despite all the Lord was using him to do for others!!! Please let us walk in the Spirit.

James 2

¹⁰For whosoever shall keep the whole law, and yet offend in one point, he is guilty of all.

¹¹For he that said, Do not commit adultery, said also, Do not kill. Now if thou commit no adultery, yet if thou kill, thou art become a transgressor of the law.

¹²So speak ye, and so do, as they that shall be judged by the law of liberty.

¹³For he shall have judgment without mercy, that hath shewed no mercy; and mercy rejoiceth against judgment.

Only Jesus fulfilled ALL jots and tittles of the law of God and He alone received THE BLESSING (note: not blessings). He then passed THE BLESSING to us. So we do not do anything to receive the blessing. I know when we say blessing, we think earthly – cars, moneys, houses or tangible things. Tangible things are secondary. The blessing on the other hand is the primary thing and it is about eternal or heavenly things especially salvation of the soul. We are in this world but not of this world so we should set our hearts and minds in heaven. So when we are saved we automatically have access to heavenly glory and this is the privilege we have to influence the earth. We cannot influence this earth by any earthly gimmick because whatever tangible things you can attain on earth, others have it. You can feed 10,000 as a Christian, but so can others. The new life or the life that makes all things new and impacts others with life is a blessing from heaven. We accept and receive it by believing God. He is not a dictator so He waits for our response. He is a living God of the time, so He works with us fresh in our generation according to His will and purpose. He is a relationship God who reveals Himself to those who really want Him and know Him and relate to Him. It is a love relationship.

Are we saying that we should not obey? Far from it. However, your obedience comes by the working of God through the Holy Spirit so that God can fulfil His purpose in Christ in us at such a time like this. It is not to earn anything from God. All things are FREE in Christ Jesus. It is these responses of our hearts and the inspiration the Lord imparts upon us that helps do the things that we do according to His good pleasure. He works in us to will and to do. So God does it and we receive or respond. So no one can boast. Paul termed it “sanctification of the Spirit unto obedience”. So your obedience is absolutely the work of the Holy Spirit not you. It is the same God who gave power to pray for 5 hours, the same God gives another person Grace to do 1 hour. So no boasting, or bragging or competition but a fulfilling of God’s plans and purposes in Christ Jesus as He works in us and inspires us to be what we ought to be and do what He has planned. He works in us to will and to do. That way unity will automatically flow in the Church. That is why the apostles did not spend their lives fighting their corners or for freedom or blessing etc. They knew they had it. As you grow older, you will realise all these stuff, achievement, success and other things which some use as yardsticks of spirituality  are all vanity.

Ephesians 2

⁸For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God:

⁹Not of works, lest any man should boast.

¹⁰For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them.

Romans 8

³⁰Moreover whom he did predestinate, them he also called: and whom he called, them he also justified: and whom he justified, them he also glorified.

³¹What shall we then say to these things? If God be for us, who can be against us?

³²He that spared not his own Son, but delivered him up for us all, how shall he not with him also freely give us all things?

Philippians 2:13:

¹³For it is God which worketh in you both to will and to do of his good pleasure.

Halleluya. How can you neglect so great a salvation! If you are not saved, why don’t you receive what Jesus says.

PARABLES

GROW IN GRACE

From Sam-Best Ewruje, an able minister of the New Testament, not of man nor by man, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but by the will of God through the Grace and Mercy of Christ given unto me. Abundance of Grace and Gift of righteousness by Grace be unto you in the Name of our Lord Jesus Christ. Please be patient to read. It will set you free for life!

INTRODUCTION

We will go through a series in parables. Again, theologians, flex your muscles with all the analysis, interpretation and exposition of the Scriptures. There is grace and glory in parables. Sometimes we make doctrines out of parables, however we need to take them in context. We need the help of the Holy Spirit to really understand parables and extract grace, mercy and love from them. One of the most shocking things Jesus said about parables is that they are not meant to be figured out, or understood or perceived by just anyone because of their context!!! It is not for any private interpretation. It is only those that have been given the gift to know the mystery of the Kingdom of God KOG) that will be able to grasp the value of parables. Jesus will start His parables or stories by saying the KOG is like so and so. This is the most pivotal thing in understanding parables. Don’t ask me why Jesus would give grace to some to know the mystery and to others he would not. Sometimes Jesus tells stories or parables to confuse those who think they are wise like Pharisees and Sadducees or Lawyers whose primary motive was to catch Him out. Just like the Lawyer who asked Jesus “what must I do to be saved”. You do nothing to be saved other than to accept Jesus and His finished works. Your deeds or doings can’t save you!! So he told the Lawyer a perambulatory story even giving accolade to a Samaritan who is not supposed to know God but was yet more neighbourly than the Priest or Levite. Again, I believe Jesus use extreme stories or parables like the Prodigal son to tell His oppositions and detractors that “my ways and thoughts are higher than yours and you cannot comprehend it by mere human imagination, analysis or reason but only by the revelation of the Holy Spirit”. I believe this is what Jesus was saying, that it is people that the Holy Spirit gives revelation of such mysteries of the KOG that will understand. Note that when Jesus speaks in parables to some people He does not explain. He just dishes it out as it is. However, some clever people will go and ask Him especially His disciples and He will explain to them. The lesson here is that as you will see in the parable in Mark 4, do not just run away with just any preaching no matter who preaches it. You must have a personal time with the Lord, to talk with Him and ask Him as many questions on any sermon from whoever and let Him give you or tell you His heart and mind by the help of the Holy Spirit. You are responsible for what you hear, how you hear and what you do with what you hear. That is why the Lord’s judgement will be fair and just. Do not be carried away by every wind of teaching. Check it yourself and know it in a relationship with the Father and Jesus the Son. Don’t do hearsay, get it from the horse’s mouth as they say. You know sometimes Jesus would say ” you have heard so and so say …… but who do YOU say that I am”. Again the Lord Jesus will say “Ye HAVE HEARD (take note!) that it was …….. BUT I SAY unto YOU!!!

Mark 4

¹⁰And when he was alone, they that were about him with the twelve asked of him the parable.

¹¹And he said unto them, Unto you it is given to know the mystery of the kingdom of God: but unto them that are without, all these things are done in parables: (THERE YOU GO, MEDITATE ON THAT – I DON’T KNOW WHY BUT HE SAID IT SO I BELIEVE)

¹²That seeing they may see, and not perceive; and hearing they may hear, and not understand; lest at any time they should be converted, and their sins should be forgiven them.

²⁴And he said unto them, Take heed what ye hear: with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you: and unto you that hear shall more be given.

For us to enjoy and grasp the truth in this series on GRACE AND GLORY IN PARABLES, We must know the following foundation truth with parables.

1. 1. Note that any time the Pharisees, Sadducees or lawyers ask Jesus questions, it was to mock Jesus, or corner Him or ridicule or demean or undermine Him and His ministry.
2. 2. So when Jesus answers them, He uses a story or parable that their human mind cannot understand unless by the Spirit of God. These are proud of the law, how obedient they are to the law, interpreting the law etc. They major in what they do or they can do rather than what God is doing. They neglect the grace, mercy and love of God and go about their own works of righteousness.
3. 3. He does not speak to His own or His disciples in parable. He spoke plainly to His disciples and expected them to know the mystery of the kingdom which is a privilege we have as Children of God filled with the Spirit.

Watch out for this series. Halleluya. How can you neglect so great a salvation! If you are not saved, why don’t you receive what Jesus says.

PARABLE OF THE SOWER

GROW IN GRACE, GOD IS GOOD

From Sam-Best Ewruje, an able minister of the New Testament, not of man nor by man, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but by the will of God through the Grace and Mercy of Christ given unto me. Abundance of Grace and Gift of righteousness by Grace be unto you in the Name of our Lord Jesus Christ. Please be patient to read. It will set you free for life!

Please kindly read this in conjunction with the introduction to this series – GRACE AND GLORY IN PARABLES. We will start with the parable of the sower. The parable of the sower is a very important one and in Mark 4 Jesus uses the parable of the Sower and the seed and He emphasises that if you do not understand this parable, you will not understand any other parable because here the grace of God is manifested in extremes of situation. The parable of the sower is the gateway to ALL PARABLES!!! So let us be attentive.

Mark 4

¹³And he said unto them, Know ye not this parable? and how then will ye know all parables?

As we said in part 1 of this series, Jesus spoke parables but did not expect people to understand but later he would explain the parable and teach them privately to the disciples. We concluded that it is good that no matter who preaches the word to you to still go to the Holy Spirit and ask Him to teach you in your personal private devotion. Do not just take everything hook line and sinker until you have checked it yourself just like the Berean Christians. Paul said the Berean Christians were more noble than others for searching the Scriptures for themselves.

Mark 4

³³And with many such parables spake he the word unto them, as they were able to hear it.

³⁴But without a parable spake he not unto them: and when they were alone, he expounded all things to his disciples

Acts 17

¹⁰And the brethren immediately sent away Paul and Silas by night unto Berea: who coming thither went into the synagogue of the Jews.

¹¹These were more noble than those in Thessalonica, in that they received the word with all readiness of mind, and searched the scriptures daily, whether those things were so.

Now let us look at Mark 4 thoroughly. Jesus was speaking to the multitude at the seaside. He starts with the parable that there went a Sower to sow. Jesus then told them the fate of some seed and their final outcome eg those by the wayside, those that fell on thorns and those that fell on good soil. Immediately, when we look at this parable, we automatically categorise people into groups, those that will benefit from the word and those that will not benefit from the word. This may be so. However as Jesus began to explain the parables to the privileged disciples, this parable becomes clearer. He began by saying “THE SOWER SOWETH the word”. Now many of us who are now Christians who believe in Christ will agree that it was not the first time you receive the word that you gave your life to Christ. Here in is grace manifested in this parable of the sower. Though the word first spoken to you fell on your hard heart or dry heart, the sower kept sowing the word. The SOWER is the Lord. He kept on sending people to preach to you, wooing you, appealing to you. Gradually things begin to make sense. He never gave up on you. He kept sowing the seed of the word. Eventually your heart melted, became soft and you accepted Christ. That is what the Kingdom is all about. The word of faith we preach is the word of God, not yours. Our job is to preach it in season and out of season persistently and consistently so that the Holy Spirit can sow the word deep into people’s heart and penetrate every stone heartedness until they become soft and begin to bear fruit. You will see further in Mark 4 that Jesus talked of the farmer that sowed the word and would sleep and wake and does not worry how the seed grows. He does not uproot it and say “where are your roots”. The same way, Christians need to develop the tenacity of the Jehovah’s witnesses (JW). They do not mind whether you come to their hall or not. They come to you. It is not your business how the seed grows. You just do your bit. PREACH! You see, anyone that follows what Jesus said will reap the fruit “Go ye into the world and preach”. The JW are doing it and they are seeing the fruit. They do not beg for money like we do because their gospel is not costly. The mormons are doing it , going out 2 by 2 in impeccable suits and doing it and they are reaping. However, what Christians do is to look on complacently waiting within 4 walls and condemn these people who are doing exactly what we are commissioned to do. Please be patient to read Mark 4

Mark 4

¹And he began again to teach by the sea side: and there was gathered unto him a great multitude, so that he entered into a ship, and sat in the sea; and the whole multitude was by the sea on the land.

²And he taught them many things by parables, and said unto them in his doctrine,

³Hearken; Behold, there went out a sower to sow:

⁴And it came to pass, as he sowed, some fell by the way side, and the fowls of the air came and devoured it up.

⁵And some fell on stony ground, where it had not much earth; and immediately it sprang up, because it had no depth of earth:

⁶But when the sun was up, it was scorched; and because it had no root, it withered away.

⁷And some fell among thorns, and the thorns grew up, and choked it, and it yielded no fruit.

⁸And other fell on good ground, and did yield fruit that sprang up and increased; and brought forth, some thirty, and some sixty, and some an hundred.

⁹And he said unto them, He that hath ears to hear, let him hear.

¹⁰And when he was alone, they that were about him with the twelve asked of him the parable.

¹¹And he said unto them, Unto you it is given to know the mystery of the kingdom of God: but unto them that are without, all these things are done in parables:

¹²That seeing they may see, and not perceive; and hearing they may hear, and not understand; lest at any time they should be converted, and their sins should be forgiven them.

¹³And he said unto them, Know ye not this parable? and how then will ye know all parables?

¹⁴The sower soweth the word.

¹⁵And these are they by the way side, where the word is sown; but when they have heard, Satan cometh immediately, and taketh away the word that was sown in their hearts.

¹⁶And these are they likewise which are sown on stony ground; who, when they have heard the word, immediately receive it with gladness;

¹⁷And have no root in themselves, and so endure but for a time: afterward, when affliction or persecution ariseth for the word’s sake, immediately they are offended.

¹⁸And these are they which are sown among thorns; such as hear the word,

¹⁹And the cares of this world, and the deceitfulness of riches, and the lusts of other things entering in, choke the word, and it becometh unfruitful.

²⁰And these are they which are sown on good ground; such as hear the word, and receive it, and bring forth fruit, some thirtyfold, some sixty, and some an hundred.

²¹And he said unto them, Is a candle brought to be put under a bushel, or under a bed? and not to be set on a candlestick?

²²For there is nothing hid, which shall not be manifested; neither was any thing kept secret, but that it should come abroad.

²³If any man have ears to hear, let him hear.

²⁴And he said unto them, Take heed what ye hear: with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you: and unto you that hear shall more be given.

²⁵For he that hath, to him shall be given: and he that hath not, from him shall be taken even that which he hath.

I hope you will follow Jesus Christ commission and go and preach and He will sow the word through you to even the hardest person by the Holy Spirit. Just go preach as you have opportunity. Please I implore you in the Lord. This is how the Kingdom grows. People will eventually become receptive even if you feel they don’t, keep going. It is not written on anyone’s face who should be saved. Everyone has potential to be saved but they have to hear the Gospel from the SOWER, the Lord through you on a daily basis. It is not Bible bashing people but have in mind and heart a readiness to preach and the SOWER will provide opportunities to preach. We are Christ Witnesses. Join us. You do not have to leave your church just a readiness to preach the word. Join us as we go into the community. Go 2 by 2 or in groups, knock on doors. Be a Christ’s Witness today. Don’t listen to the lies of the devil and wait for times and season – Kyros time, this time and all such theories that limit the Great Commission. Jesus said the HARVEST is NOW!!. Who do I preach to – EVERYONE as you have the opportunity. God has not discriminated any one. I know some may say what about Paul? Well Paul was committed to the Gentiles, his Judea but He eventually preached everywhere including the Hebrews and he is still preachin to us today by the Holy Ghost. To join Christ witnesses email us wherever you are in the UK or even elsewhere. We will give you training on ministering to grass-root people, the rejects and hard to reach people. Arise and Shine your little light.

Acts 1:7-8:

⁷And he said unto them, It is not for you to know the times or the seasons, which the Father hath put in his own power.

⁸But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judaea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth.

Mark 16

¹⁵And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature.

¹⁶He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned.
