GOD WISHES TO DO FOR YOU TOO WHAT HE DID FOR JESUS CHRIST


Sometimes ago, on one of my evangelical outings, a friend and I came across a group of young handsome looking guys in their workshop. From their looks one could tell that they didn't want us around, but one who seemed to be the owner of the workshop welcomed us as most people often welcome street evangelists. He made us feel comfortable within the little space of the shop. Being allowed by the head, some of the other guys stayed, while the rest just found a way to excuse themselves.

We prayed together without any of the guys closed their eyes and their boss busy pressing the cell phone in his hand. After the prayer, my partner started preaching about the sin of humanity and the love of God through Jesus Christ. None of them really shown a sense of interest and their boss was just busy pressing his phone without lifting his head. Awhile later, my partner stopped and I asked me if I had something to say to which I answered yes. I opened my Bible and about to talk, when the boss looked up and asked me to stop with that kind of i-am-tired-of-this attitude. Without hesitation, I said ok.

"Look, look, I thank you for your effort and love." He said. Then continued. "You have really tried. I have been listening to all your talks since. And none of them is new. But I want to ask you a question which I have been asking even bigger men of God to explain the mystery behind it. And none of them have been able to give me satisfactory explanation about it."

I rejoiced in me when he said this because I know personally that he was about to give a way to the destruction of a false revelation that had held him captive from God's greater love as long as he had been carrying the mentality about.
The truth is there is no heavy guarded prison against man where they cannot easily attain freedom as the one they build for themselves in their mind. And none of such prison is as strongly secured as unexplained wrong perspection of God's word.
He asked, "God can save us from sin, right?" Yes! I said with all confidence. Then he said, "There is an aspect of Jesus Christ's life story in the Bible that people who talk about him do not talk about or never deeply talk about. Why did God didn't save the Devil from sinning against Him? Why did Jesus Christ never marry? Why did Jesus Christ often go to Mary and Martha's house? Luke 10:38-42. Why were these young women often appeared wherever Jesus Christ appeared? Why did Jesus Christ died at the time He did?" And finally asked the question that brought about this article, " Why did God allow Jesus Christ to die at that age of his life?"

In essence, this guy's central idea in all these questions is that God can be partial sometimes. That Jesus Christ loved either of those women and that if God hadn't taken Him at that youthful age - when the zeal for sexual desire is much stronger, possibly - He, Jesus Christ, would have taken one of them as a wife, because it was glaring that both the women and Jesus Christ were in love with one another from afar. And if God saved Him from that looming dangerous sin, and didn't save the devil, then God is partial. (This is my own analysis of those questions as God enabled me. You too can look into the questions and do your own analysis of them).

It is true that we weren't (and I personally wasn't) able to 'give' him answer to his questions that very day. Not that we didn't have answer and explanation to all these questions, we did (and that's why I used the word GIVE in the sentence above), but because it was getting late in the night. So we left with an agreement that we would visit him sometime later.

THE EXPLANATION OF THOSE QUESTIONS
Let's assume that God did it for Jesus Christ - He saved and rescued Him from the danger of the sin that would have denied Him the God Almighty's right hand of glory, honour, majesty and power where He is now. God wishes to do the same thing for us, you and I, too. In fact, not just that alone, but include everything He has done for Jesus Christ. Bible says, "...that he (Jesus Christ) might be the firstborn among many brothers." "...then we are heirs - heirs of God and co-heirs with Christ," Romans 8:29, 8:17, respectively. This means, what Christ Jesus have access to is also ours by same authority of birth.

But why is God looking on while many, include Generals of faith, are falling into different many kinds of sins? Then I ask you, how many are doing what Jesus Christ did, even as simple as it is? Not even devil was and is ready to do it. And if you and I can do it, God is always ready, even now, to do for us what He did for Jesus Christ.

And what is it that Jesus Christ did?
No. Not that He died for our sin, but because He AGREED with God and SURRENDERED to God's will. Not that God willingly took Him away from this world of sin at that very sensitive age without Jesus Christ's own agreement.
He says, "The reason my Father loves me is that I lay down my life - only to take it up again. No-one takes it from me, but I lay it down of my own accord. I have authority to lay it down and authority to take it up again." John 10:17-18. Simply put as, 'My life is my own. I can die now, if I so desire. Nobody can kill me, if I don't allow the person. But my Father loves me because I allowed myself to be killed by somebody.'

God, as all-knowing, knows when we are most ready to fit the kingdom of heaven, certain positions of authority and places of leadership. He always wants to rescue as many people as possible and to prepare some for the highest positions of their desires with a step that looks not very straight forward, but they always ignorantly rebel against such will of God, thinking is a devil's attack. King Hezekiah is a perfect example of such rebellion and after which he made a terrible mistake that negatively affected the generations of his children, Isaiah 38:1-22, 39:1-8.

As I close this write up, I reaffirm to you that God is willing to do for us whatever He did for Jesus Christ. He is always ready to be partial for our glory and peace, but we must learn not to call, "...conspiracy everything that these people [of the world] call conspiracy; do not fear what they fear, and do not dread it. The Lord Almighty is the one you are to regard as holy, ...to fear, ...to dread, and He will be a sanctuary;" Isaiah 8:12-13. And also meditate this verse, "The righteous perish, and no-one ponders it in his heart; devout men are taken away, and no-one understands that the righteous are taken away to be spared from evil." Isaiah 57:1.

THE REAL MEANING OF SCHOOL

Issue of school in regards to its meaning is one of the modern topic amongst educationists. While school is described in a layman term just as a place of learning; it is professionally described as an organized environment for formal education – which means education that follows certain processes. And the features of school, as it is being often mentioned, include: school authority and staff, classrooms, laboratories and libraries, textbooks and lesson notes, students, tables and chairs, various buildings and offices, ink or chalk boards and other materials of instruction. But school, in the real sense, is more than all that have been mentioned as the major features; my description of school is simply a place of getting additional knowledge to one's own natural knowledge. Therefore, the real features of a school is everything and anything that contributes to the growth of one's knowledge, causes the expansion of one's mind, increases one's intelligence quotient,

THE SECRET DEEDS OF JESUS CHRIST THAT MADE HIM GREAT (Part 1)

As Christians who wants to become as great as Jesus Christ on earth and in heavens, just as our Father in heaven desires, Romans 8:29, and which shows that it is very possible to become like Him, we cannot be so by categoring mainly on His backgrounds as reason for His greatness in any sense. If it is for His backgrounds that God says we should focus and listen to Him for us to be great, then we cannot be like Him in any way, because our mothers were not virgin before and after they gave birth to us. They were probably virgins before they knew our fathers, but never after they came across our fathers - the connection that preceded our conceptions. And for that, every other thing has no value in itself as for us to become like Jesus Christ in comparison to backgrounds. Read the introduction to this series Therefore, when God instructs us to focus on Jesus Christ, He is telling us to pay attention to what Jesus did and how He did it. It is in that we have our road map to h

THE EVILS THAT HAPPEN TO THE GOOD SAMARITAN

As Christians in this present generation, we tend to question God why He allows evil in someone else situation and good in another, especially someone we might consider 'underserved'. Such judgement is not sentimental, I will say, rather a result of our inability to understand the indepth of God's sovereignty and His declared words. What kind of things that happens in today society to the good 'ones'; 'why him or her?' And 'why not him or her?' We could argue the issue passionately and with good different points of view that could cast down any other plausible argument concerning the situation. And as such, some people's minds, and ultimately their faith could shrink back from their sincere service and worship to God and to Christ Jesus, our saviour, because of the things that happen to the good Samaritan, who deserves care and love and, even to some extents to be worshipped. But the truth of the two kinds of situation - good and bad

GOD NEEDS YOUR WEAKNESS

By Charlene Nelson on desiringGod.com Suffering has shown me that my strength is not in me. The raging seas have made me cling to the rock of my salvation. I can say in full conviction, “If the Lord had not been my help, my soul would soon have lived in the land of silence. When I thought ‘My foot slips’ your steadfast love, O Lord, held me up (Psalm 94:17–18).” God has shown me my own weakness through debilitating pain — fibromyalgia and severe pelvic separation during two pregnancies, as well as years of anemia causing brutal fatigue. I now not only know my weakness, but I feel it acutely. In the past year, though I had earnestly believed it was time for some relief, God brought me even lower when I was diagnosed with a stomach tumor, waded through follow up tests, and underwent surgery. The Secret to Suffering As a mom of two children under school age, walking through these trials has been unspeakably difficult. But during this recent cancer scare it was, perhaps, the f
