Those who follow Jesus were called disciples and later while Barnabas and Paul were in Antioch, disciples were first called Christians (Acts 11:26). So if anyone who calls himself a Christian, he should be a disciple of Christ Jesus. And Jesus wanted us to be perfect as He is and His Heavenly Father is perfect. We are called for perfection. We cannot excuse ourselves pointing out our weaknesses and stop attaining perfection in our characters and spiritual walk with Jesus. If you are closer to God you will automatically follow all His Commandments.

Resurrection Of The Dead
Christian life should be spiritual life and we are not to get attached to the material life this world is projecting and should not become enemies of God. Jesus is not of the world and He wants us to be in the world but not of the world. We should know the difference and follow the footsteps of Jesus in all we do here on earth. Our Home is Heaven: as Jesus rose from the dead and reached heaven, we should be mindful of the resurrection of our dead bodies on the Day of Resurrection and be rejoicing for this privilege we are blessed with.
We Must All Appear Before The Judgement Seat Of Christ
Always Jesus is presented as the soft, sweet person among the people. Yes, Jesus is full of grace and truth and He came as a servant, saviour and healer: but next time when we are going to meet Him, we see Him as a Just Judge and terror will grip us if we are unaware of His anger and wrath over disobedience to His Commandments, which He asked us to follow fully. We are supposed to please Christ Jesus and not ourselves. We are to give account to Him for whatever good or bad have been done by us. Jesus is coming soon, so set everything right between you and Him.
God Is Never Tempted Nor Allowing Temptations To You
Nothing bad or negative God has to give; yet many quote Job’s story and say that God allowed Satan to bring all bad things in his life. Historians say that Job is the oldest book in the Bible. And those days very few righteous people were there and they too were made righteous by faith alone. But Job doubted that his children might have sinned and cursed God and in a way allowed destruction (Job1:5). Nobody could be righteous by works except Jesus Christ our Lord who overcame temptations, and Satan got to leave Him alone. So do not allow any wrong thoughts or wrong persons or sicknesses in your life, thinking God allowed that in your lives. God is never tempted or tempts anyone or allows any bad things in your life as you think. Start resisting, and fight a good fight of faith to get rid off, earlier the better.
Gospel – Saviour Jesus Christ Created One New Man By One Spirit
Gospel, the Good News is that God called us to live a Holy Life and for this by His grace saved us through Jesus Christ, our Saviour, who broke the power of death and brought to light life and immorality. We are not giving this good news to the people even among the Christian community and that is why many are attracted to the glare of the false light which is shining in the world, leading a material life that leads to destruction. Christ Jesus, through His body, created One New man from both Jews and Gentiles; because salvation is from the Jews.
Ministry Of Death Was Glorious! Ministry Of The Spirit Is More Glorious!!
Church is formed by the ministry of the Spirit, that means Holy Spirit power, which was poured out on the day of Pentecost. Many of the so called Christians forgot this and started to live on the Pentecost of the old covenant, the Law, given through Moses, which was engraved on the stones called the ministry of condemnation and death. If you go after the old covenant there seems to be some glory, whereas that glory was fading away. If you go with the new covenant which was created by the Blood of Jesus is called the ministry of the Spirit, is more glorious and eternal. A veil covers your heart when you read the Old Testament. But this veil is taken away when you turn to our Lord Jesus Christ.
God Has Revealed The Future Through His Holy Spirit
The mysteries of God in the past were hidden to those saints of the old covenant. To Daniel the Lord Jesus who came to him, when he was under the rule of Cyrus king of Persia, and talked about the future events in details. Yet when Daniel asked Him for more information about the end time events the Lord said to go and rest, because there was time for those incidents to happen (Daniel 12:8-9). But for us God has revealed through His Holy Spirit into our own spirit. To John the Apostle it was revealed fully about many 7 sets of incidents, when he was called to the throne room of God, except about the incidents the 7 thunders spoke. (Revelation 10:4)
Preach The Gospel As The Way Jesus Commanded
Jesus did not leave His followers clueless as to how to give the gospel, preach and heal. He actually went into details, as to what to do and how to behave, everything. And the apostles had set examples and lived a sacrificial life even to their death for the gospel and had glorified God. Whereas we find a different kind of pattern and attitudes in the ministers of Christ, during this modern time, which are entirely opposite to what that are written in the Bible they hold in their hands. God goes with His rules which He originated and will never change, because the days are evil now or for any other reason. “Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever.” Hebrews 13:8 (NIV) Amen! Only we make sure we follow His Commandments without fail and align with Him to have victory.
SECOND COMING OF JESUS
END OF THE 7TH YEAR OF ANTICHRIST RULE JESUS COMES IN A WHITE HORSE WITH THE ARMIES IN HEAVEN, CLOTHED IN FINE LINEN, WHITE AND CLEAN WHO FOLLOWED HIM IN WHITE HORSES TO FIGHT A WAR CALLED ARMAGEDDON WITH ANTICHRIST AND THE KINGS OF THE EARTH AND WIN THEM. THEN THE ANTICHRIST AND THE FALSE PROPHET WILL BE PUT IN THE FIERY LAKE OF BURNING SULPHUR. (REVELATION 19)
Every Food Is Sanctified By God’s Word & Prayer
As Christians we have the habit of blessing the food before we eat it. How many are you really believing that the food is sanctified by your prayer and eat without doubting? The word of God says, if you are a believer even when you mistakenly eat poison, it should not affect you. “And Jesus said to them, “Go into all the world and preach the gospel to every creature. He who believes and is baptised will be saved; but he who does not believe will be condemned. And these signs will follow those who believe: In My name they will cast out demons; they will speak with new tongues; they will take up serpents; and if they drink anything deadly, it will by no means hurt them; they will lay hands on the sick, and they will recover.”” Mark 16:15-18 (NKJV) So the question arises whether the so called believers really believe in God’s Word and prayer?!
