OUR ALLOCATION IN JESUS’ BLOOD

The love of the God is eternally pure toward humanity in every sphere of life (John 3:16) and this is undeniable by the obvious proof and validity of His workings and all His creations attest to this truth. His love for all was the testament that issued the death of His only begotten Son Jesus Christ (Romans  5:10-11) For if when we were enemies we were reconciled to God through the death of His Son, much more, having been reconciled, we shall be saved by His life. The Father has predestined us to be sons after the order of His only begotten Son, in that, Jesus was the propitiation that brought about our re-establishment with God i.e. restoration to the Divinity. To this end, Christ’s blood was and is our noble password to glory and eternal adoption.

LOVE MUST BE THE CENTRE OF OUR CONDUCTS

The moment we have accepted Jesus as our Lord and personal saviour, we are open to God’s kind of life called ZOE i.e. life of love and faith which was kick-started by the life of Jesus Christ, through His death, resurrection and ascension into glory divine. Since we have come to this saving grace, Love life calls for conscious pressing to live by faith in the Son of God who is the perfect expression of the Father’s love to humanity at large. The love life is the life of God for man to have undeniable victory over sin and death see John 10:10b. In that, the good Lord has tasted death once for all; that all who will come to His saving grace will be an embodiment of His love.

LOVE, THE ONLY TEMPLATE FOR EQUIPPING BELIEVERS

Definition: the above heading (equipping believers) implies making fit, preparing, training, perfecting, making fully qualified for service. In classical language, the word is used for setting a bone surgery. In the now, the Great physician is making all the necessary adjustments so the church will not be “out of joint.”  Looking at Eph 4:11, 12, this text teaches that all leadership gifts are given by Christ as the Lord of the church to “equip” (that is, to mend, prepare, and enable for function) the whole body of the congregation.

HOW TO EFFECTIVELY MANAGE MINISTERIAL DIFFERENCES

In our growing up in this vocation as Christians, being made wise to know by the Scriptures that we are joint heir with God through Christ, the Son of His love Col. 1:13, we are led to understand His word that says, "till we all come to the unity of faith" Eph 4:13a. 

For we know that it is our faith in the Son that led us from our pre-conversion state to the regeneration state which sanctified us to be joint heir with the Father by the Son through the Holy Ghost.
