Do You Really Believe In Christ? By Adeyinka Ojo



Sometimes we need to be critical of ourselves and think deep about what we believe and what we think we believe in.
When we are face with critical situation and challenge its then we know who we really are and what we really believe. On a face value we think and concluded that yes, I am born into Christian family, my parent do attend church service even twice a week and as a result of the upbringing we concluded that we don’t only believe in Christ but also we believe we are Christian.
Don’t conclude that you know Christ until you have an encounter with His resurrection power! This is the power that raise us up from our dead state to being alive with God.
The power transformed us from earthly being to heavenly being.
Where then do we encounter this power?
Right there in God’s word!
The word of God carries resurrection power.
God to where the word is preach and let the word transform you .
I am Adeyinka Ojo

'Figure of Jesus' Appears Above Colombian City Where 17 Died in Landslide (Video)

Believers in the Colombian city of Manizales, where 17 people died last week in a landslide, were reportedly left astonished after what some described as the "figure of Jesus" appearing in the form of sunlight streaming through the clouds. MailOnline  reported on Wednesday that one believer, identified as Marya de Iesus, recorded the phenomenon on video, and shared it with people online. "Jesus Christ was visiting our Colombian town, he calmed down the sky and was listened to," the woman said. The video shows a number of other believers watching the unusual light formation, with one man heard calling out in the background: "Oh, my God, my blessed God, come here to see the misery. Look at this, look at this, blessing God. Glory to the Lord. He asks: "Do you see the Lord there, standing up?" Seventeen people were killed in landslides caused by heavy rain there last week,   BBC News  reported. Mud and rocks destroyed several houses on the...

The True Grace of God by Zac Poonen

False grace” is not a 21st-century phenomenon. It was being preached even in the days of the apostles. Jude speaks of “some godless people who had slipped in unnoticed among the churches, and who had distorted the message of the grace of God in order to excuse their immoral ways” and who were teaching “that after we become Christians we can do just as we like without fear of God's punishment” (Jude 4 - Today’s English Version and Living Bible). So Peter was prompted by the Holy Spirit to write a whole letter explaining what the true grace of God was (1 Peter). At the end of that letter, he says, “I have written to you briefly, exhorting and testifying that this is the true grace of God. Stand firm in it!” (1 Pet.5:12). So, if we study Peter’s first letter, we can understand what true grace is. Check yourself and see whether you have the true grace of God: The Holy Spirit says that the true grace of God: - Will make you live in obedience to God’s Word – and not according to the...

Faith Tested By Fire by Zac Poonen

Apostle Peter says in 1 Peter that, all the trials that we go through on earth are only, “for a little while” (1 Peter 1:6). From the standpoint of eternity, even 100 years is only a little while. This eternal perspective is what we must always have in the midst of our trials. All the apostles had this perspective. James refers to our life as a vapour (James 4:14). Paul refers to “our momentary affliction” (2 Corinthians 4:17). Remember that the theme of 1 Peter is the true grace of God. So one of the first things we understand here is that it is perfectly normal for those who receive the true grace of God to be distressed by various types of trials. The purpose of those trials is to prove the genuineness of your faith – like “gold tested in the fire”. When gold is dug from the depths of the earth it is not pure. The only way to purify it is by putting it into the fire. You can’t purify gold by scrubbing it with soap and water. That only removes the dirt. But to remove the metals t...
