    TIME AND CHANCE HAPPEN TO ALL

    We are  taking our FINAL Scripture reading from Ecclesiastes 9:11 which says: “The race is not for the swift, nor the battle to the strong, nor bread to the wise, nor riches to men of understanding, nor favour to men of skill; But TIME AND CHANCE HAPPEN TO THEM ALL.” Because the Bible is a BOOK of SALVATION, we will misconstrue its teachings if we read and study it according to the words per se. However if  we always read and study it within the spiritual and eternal purpose of God in the blueprint of the REDEMPTION of mankind, then we will be able to enter deep inside the “Word” of God where the “THOUGHTS” of the Creator is made manifest to us. Therefore when our Scripture reading in Ecclesiastes says that “TIME AND CHANCE HAPPEN TO THEM ALL,” then it obviously mean that God has given the “CHANCE” or the opportunity for “ALL” human beings to be SAVED from SIN. That’s why the Scripture says that when God sent John the Baptist to testify that JESUS is “The LAMB of God who takes away the SINS of the world” (John 1::29), God gave him this testimony so that “ALL through him might BELIEVE” (John 1:7).  It shows that God did this so that “ALL” men will be redeemed. For this reason, the Apostle Paul tells us that God actually “desires ALL men to be SAVED and to come to the knowledge of the TRUTH” (2 Timothy 2:4). And if “ALL” men can be SAVED, then God must allow “TIME AND CHANCE HAPPEN TO THEM ALL,” and He did it accordingly by given “TIME” and the “CHANCE” for “ALL” the descendants of Adam to be saved, purified, justified, and to be glorified by hearing the GOSPEL of redemption.  Is there anybody who is NOT given the same “TIME and CHANCE” to be SAVED? There is nobody! This is because the Scripture says, “For since the creation of the world His invisible attributes are CLEARLY SEEN, being understood by the things that are made, even His ETERNAL POWER and Godhead, so that they are without EXCUSE” (Romans 1:20). The passage above is telling us that because God gave the same “TIME and CHANCE” for “ALL” posterity to receive His gift of the “REMISSION OF SINS” through the water and the blood of CHRIST, there is nobody who can stand before Him on the Day of Judgment to give any “EXCUSE.” This is because He gave the “TIME”  and the “CHANCE”  for everybody to be brought into His abode in CHRIST JESUS. That’s why the Apostle Peter also tells us that, “The LORD is not slack concerning His promise, as some count slackness, but is LONG-SUFFERING toward us, not willing that ANY should perish but that ALL should come to repentance” (2 Peter 3:9). This is the reason why the Almighty God has given “TIME AND CHANCE HAPPEN TO THEM ALL” according to our Scripture reading in Ecclesiastes which was written by Solomon the King whom God endowed with mysterious “WISDOM.” We must therefore understand that when JESUS says “That you may be sons of your Father in Heaven; for He MAKES His sun rise on the EVIL and on the GOOD, and sends rain on the JUST and on the UNJUST” (Matthew 5:45), it is because He has given the “TIME and CHANCE” for all human beings to receive His BLESSINGS whether they are “good” or bad, whether they are “swift” or not, whether they are “strong” or not, whether they are “wise” or not, whether they are men of “understanding” or not, and whether they are men of “skill” or not. So whether a person is physically “WISE” or “FOOL,” God planned His salvation in CHRIST in such a way that “TIME and CHANCE” will actually “HAPPEN TO THEM ALL” so that nobody is excluded from it. That’s why God said in Isaiah that JESUS will become “The Highway of HOLINESS,” and He also added that “Whoever walks the road, although a FOOL, shall not go ASTRAY” (Isaiah 35:8). Brothers and Sisters, this shows the fairness and justice of God to “ALL”  human beings. That’s why after the writer of Ecclesiastes spoke about different categories of people, he did not miss the most important words when he said that “TIME AND CHANCE HAPPEN TO THEM ALL.” This is the reason why after Paul also told us in Romans Chapter 1 that everybody is “without EXCUSE,” he went further to explain in Romans Chapter 2 that “there is no PARTIALITY with God” (Romans 2:11). So let us give thanks and praise to God who has allowed “TIME AND CHANCE” to “HAPPEN” to “ALL” mankind within His redemptive plan. This  ENDS our entire study on Ecclesiastes 9:11. Through this Scripture verse alone, God has taught us: (1) THE RACE IS NOT FOR THE SWIFT (2) THE BATTLE IS NOT TO THE STRONG (Part 1, 2, 3, 4, & 5) (3) DO YOU WANT TO BE RICH? (Part 1, 2, 3 & 4) (4) THE DANGERS OF MATERIAL RICHES (Part 1, 2 & 3) and (5) TIME AND CHANCE HAPPENS TO ALL In fact The LORD has given us a lot, and may His “GOOD” name be glorified forever and ever! Amen!

    WHY DID GOD REQUIRED ANIMAL SACRIFICE IN THE OLD TESTAMENT?

    God required animal sacrifices to provide a temporary covering of sins and to foreshadow the perfect and complete sacrifice of Jesus Christ (Leviticus 4:35,5:10). Animal sacrifice is an important theme found throughout Scripture because “without the shedding of blood there is no forgiveness” (Hebrews 9:22). When Adam and Eve sinned, animals were killed by God to provide clothing for them (Genesis 3:21). Cain and Abel brought sacrifices to the Lord. Cain's was unacceptable because he brought fruit, while Abel's was acceptable because it was the “firstborn of his flock” (Genesis 4:4-5). After the flood receded, Noah sacrificed animals to God (Genesis 8:20-21). God commanded the nation of Israel to perform numerous sacrifices according to certain procedures prescribed by God. First, the animal had to be spotless. Second, the person offering the sacrifice had to identify with the animal. Third, the person offering the animal had to inflict death upon it. When done in faith, this sacrifice provided a temporary covering of sins. Another sacrifice called for on the Day of Atonement, described in Leviticus 16, demonstrates forgiveness and the removal of sin.  The high priest was to take two male goats for a sin offering. One of the goats was sacrificed as a sin offering for the people of Israel (Leviticus 16:15), while the other goat was released into the wilderness (Leviticus 16:20-22). The sin offering provided forgiveness, while the other goat provided the removal of sin.Why, then, do we no longer offer animal sacrifices today?  Animal sacrifices have ended because Jesus Christ was the ultimate and perfect sacrifice. John the Baptist recognized this when he saw Jesus coming after he was baptized and said, “Look, the lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world!” (John 1:29). Jesus the lamb of God came to John to be baptized to fulfill the righteous of God Matthew 3:13-15.   You may be asking yourself, why animals? What did they do wrong? That is the point—since the animals did no wrong, they died in place of the one performing the sacrifice. Jesus Christ also did no wrong but willingly gave Himself to die for the sins of mankind (1 Timothy 2:6). Jesus Christ took our sin upon Himself and died in our place 1John 3:5. As 2 Corinthians 5:21 says, “God made him [Jesus] who had no sin to be sin for us, so that in him we might become the righteousness of God.” Through faith in what Jesus Christ accomplished on the cross, we can receive forgiveness.In summation, animal sacrifices were commanded by God so that the individual could experience forgiveness of sin.  The animal served as a substitute—that is, the animal died in place of the sinner, but only temporarily, which is why the sacrifices needed to be offered over and over. Animal sacrifices have stopped with Jesus Christ. Jesus Christ was the ultimate sacrificial substitute once for all time (Hebrews 7:27) and is now the only mediator between God and humanity (1 Timothy 2:5). Animal sacrifices foreshadowed Christ’s sacrifice on our behalf. The only basis on which an animal sacrifice could provide forgiveness of sins is Christ who would sacrifice Himself for our sins, providing the forgiveness that animal sacrifices could only illustrate. Blood is life given tissue in both animal and human without which we died. By animal sacrifice, we were temporaly receiving life.  Jesus died so that his blood must give us a permanent life. There is life in the blood. Leviticus 17:11. Now, the blood that gives life is in his word. So as we hear His word regularly we are receiving the life of our lord Jesus Christ. Read  Hebrews 4:12-13, You will really appreciate the efficacy of the word of God and what he does with our soul and spirit. As one hears the word of God, the word first searchs the soul and the spirit and block the flow of Adamic sin which caused the soul and the spirit to be corrupted and takes away the flesh and replace it with the law of the spirit eternally. Halleluja.

    GOD WILL NOT JUDGE BY WHAT HE HEARS OR BY WHAT HE SEES BUT BY RIGHTEOUSNESS

    GOD WILL NOT JUDGE BY WHAT HE HEARS OR BY WHAT HE SEES BUT BY RIGHTEOUSNESS HE WILL JUDGE THE WORLD IIsaiah 11:2-3 Gossipers will be disappointed because God will not judge by what he hears. Those who work hard to bring evidence too shall also be disappointed because God will not judge by what he sees. The only evidence too God will be looking for is whether or not you believe in the only begotten son of God John 3:16-18

    Will Your Disguise work?

    Genesis 27:26-29. Then his father Isaac said to him, come near now and kiss me my son. And he came near and kissed him; and he smelled the smell of his clothing, and blessed him and said: Surely, the smell of my son is like the smell of a field which the Lord has blessed. Therefore may God give you Of the dew of heaven, Of the fatness of the earth, and plenty of grain and wine. Let peoples serve you, and nations bow down to you. Be master over your brethren, and let your mother’s sons bow down to you. Cursed be everyone who curses you, and blessed be those who bless you! What a wonderful blessing Jacob has just received from his father Isaac. But take a look at how Jacob’s brother Esau reacted when he found out he had been tricked out of his inheritance. Genesis 27:34-36. When Esau heard the words of his father, he cried with an exceedingly great and bitter cry, and said to his father, Bless me-me also, O my father! But he said, Your brother came with deceit and has taken away your blessing. And Esau said, Is he not rightly named Jacob? For he has supplanted me these two times. He took away my birthright, and now look, he has taken away my blessing! Genesis 27:41. So Esau hated Jacob because of the blessing with which his father blessed him, and Esau said in his heart, The days of mourning for my father are at hand; then I will kill my brother Jacob. There is a similar story earlier in the book of Genesis where Cain kills his brother Able because of jealousy. God accepted the offer Able made to Him, but rejected that of his brother Cain. Able tended the flocks and Cain worked the land. Able offered a burnt offering whereas Cain made an offer from his hard work. It is clear for all to see, unless you come to God with the right offering, He will either bless you or curse you. Jacob was also a man of the flocks while his brother Esau was a man of the field. Same circumstances, same form of worship as Cain and Able. But look at the disastrous outcome. We know that Esau was the first born, but God had already chosen to bless Jacob.  The gist of this message is to prove a point. How many Christians in the world today are and have been trying to receive God’s blessings, by thinking they could trick Him into believing they were someone who they were not. Isaac was almost blind and deaf so he had to rely on his sense of smell and touch. Jacob’s mother placed the skin of a goat on the arm of Jacob so that his father’s touch would make him believe that it was Esau. The same with the clothing his mother gave him to wear, it belonged to Esau and smelled of the field, thus deceiving Isaac once again. It was easy enough to trick a blind and a deaf man into releasing his blessing, but do you honestly believe that you can try to trick and deceive God into blessing you when you hide behind your disguise of the wrong faith? This is nothing more than trying to enter the sheep fold via the back door. If you try to enter the fold in this manner, the same will happen to you as did Able, you will be killed. God himself will destroy you. The same thing will happen to you as Esau threatened to do to his brother Jacob. Jealousy is an evil sickness which causes people to lie, cheat, hate, manipulate, deceive, steal and even murder one an another, and all for the sake of trying to receive something which is not rightfully theirs in the first place. God’s blessings are for free. There is only one way to receive God’s blessing, and that is by entering His fold by the front door.Jesus is the door to the fold and you have to enter through Him. There is no other way. Only the true faith is acceptable to God. The Gospel of the water and the Spirit is the only gospel which will allow you entrance into the kingdom of God. Any other form of worship or offering will only lead to your destruction. To learn more about the Gospel of the water and the Spirit, you can order the free Books written by Rev. Paul C. Jong on this very subject. Don’t mock it until you have tried it. These books make the difference between receiving God’s blessings or God’s curses. Just think about Cain and Able or Jacob and Esau. The choice between life and death is yours. John 8:32. And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free. God has already blessed you, drop your disguise and receive it.

    ARE YOU A WISE BELIEVER?

    ARE YOU A WISE BELIEVER? Our Scripture reading in our new study series is taken from Galatians where it is written: “O FOOLISH Galatians! Who has bewitched you that you should not obey the TRUTH, before whose eyes JESUS CHRIST was clearly portrayed among you as crucified? This only I want to learn from you: Did you receive the Spirit by the WORKS of the LAW, or by hearing of FAITH? Are you so FOOLISH? Having begun in the Spirit, are you now being made perfect by the FLESH?” (Galatians 3:1-3). We THANK our Creator and Saviour Who satisfies us with “GOOD things” which comes from His Word, so that our youth is renewed like the eagle (Psalm 103:5). To be honest, when I am preparing the messages, I personally do not know what the next topic will be, but our God gives us as it seems good in His sight, and He enable us to learn more by expounding on a particular passage of Scripture.  JESUS is the LORD of the Scripture. This is because He is the Word (John 1:1), and He is the One who takes us through them by His “Spirit” who TEACHES us all things and bringing into our REMEMBRANCE all that He told us (John 14:26) as revealed in the four Synoptic GOSPEL (Matthew, Mark, Luke and John) and through His anointed Apostles and Prophets from both the Old and the New Testament. Our study topic which is in a form of a question is a very IMPORTANT question. It says, “ARE YOU ARE WISE BELIEVER?” However, whether our answer is “YES” or “NO” must be based on the Holy Scriptures which has no defects or blemishes, and which makes no mistake. This is because our own criteria of judging who is “WISE” and who is a “FOOL” is completely different from how God “SEES” and judges just as He told Samuel the Prophet (1 Samuel 16:7). Throughout the Bible, one person whose acts or deeds compelled many people to label him as “FOOLISH” is none other than King Solomon. And their bases for labeling him as such is because they just cannot fathom why he had 700 wives and 300 concubines (1 Kings 11:3). But through our subsequent studies, you will see that still Solomon is far BETTER and “WISE” than the majority of Christians of today.  In other words, our Scripture reading in Galatians will prove to us that even Solomon was “WISE” than many of his ACCUSERS of today in Christendom. And as we proceed further in our studies, you will see that many Christians have also married MANY women spiritually which is even more “FOOLISH” and DANGEROUS than what King Solomon did.  Now I want us to look at the REASONS why the Apostle Paul and for that matter the “Word” of God labelled the Galatians as “FOOLISH” believers even though they accepted JESUS as their Lord and personal Saviour.  First of all, Paul began by saying, “O FOOLISH Galatians! Who has bewitched you that you should not obey the TRUTH.” Here we must understand that the “TRUTH” refers to JESUS CHRIST according His own words in John 14:6. Therefore Paul was saying that any believer or Christian who does not “obey the TRUTH” which says that JESUS “came by water and blood” (1 John 5:6) to SAVE us by “GRACE” (Ephesians 2:8) is actually the most “FOOLISH” person ever. Secondly, the REASON why Paul labelled the Galatians as “FOOLISH” believers is because of his second (2nd) rhetorical question when he told them, “This only I want to learn from you: Did you receive the Spirit by the WORKS of the LAW, or by hearing of FAITH?” Here Paul was saying that any believer or Christians who attempts to received the Holy Spirit by trying to achieve “holiness” through the “WORKS” of the “LAW” of Moses is also a “FOOLISH” believer. Not only this, but we must also know that those who attempt to receive “the Spirit” through their own “WORKS” such as fasting and prayers are also “FOOLISH.” In other words, Christians who do not believe in the SALVATION of JESUS CHRIST by the “hearing of FAITH” are the ones who live in the highest level of STUPIDITY. This is exactly how the “Word” of God describes such believers. It is according to the “Word” of God and not according to Brother Eric. Thirdly, the REASON why Paul labelled the Galatians as “FOOLISH” believers is because of his third (3rd) rhetorical question when he asked them, “Are you so FOOLISH? Having begun in the Spirit, are you now being made perfect by the FLESH?” Here we can see the WISDOM of Apostle Paul. He was a “WISE” believer and a “WISE” Apostle because he drew the clear line of demarcation between “the Spirit” and the “the FLESH.”  The Apostle Paul never made that mistake to mix the things of the “Spirit” which is according to “FAITH” and the things of the “FLESH” which according to “WORKS” together. But rather he separated these two things, and he WORSHIPED God by “FAITH” in the things of the “Spirit.” That’s why he told us in Romans, “I thank God – through JESUS CHRIST our Lord! So then, with the mind I myself serve the LAW of God, but with the FLESH the Law of SIN” (Romans 7:25). This the reason why Paul and all the Apostles of CHRIST were very “WISE.” But what about the Galatians? They were very “FOOLISH!” Why? Because they did not “serve” the “LAW” of God with their “mind,” but they attempted to serve the holy “LAW” of the Most High with their “FLESH” which is impossible for any man to achieve. What about the Christians of today? In fact most of them are also “FOOLISH” just like the Galatians who appear in our main passage of Scripture reading. Majority of Christens are just like Nicodemus. When JESUS told him, “Most assuredly, I say to you, unless one is BORN AGAIN, he cannot enter the Kingdom of God” (John 3:5), Nicodemus replied, “How can a man be BORN when he is old? Can he enter a second time into his mother’s womb and be BORN?” (John 3:4). Here in the above passage, we can see that even though Nicodemus was a great Rabbi among the Jews, his “FOOLISHNESS” was revealed in his reply to JESUS. He was really a “FOOLISH” Rabbi. But thanks to JESUS who helped Nicodemus to understand the whole concept when he told him, “Unless one is BORN AGAIN of the water and the Spirit, he cannot enter the Kingdom of God. That which is BORN of the FLESH is FLESH, and that which is born of the Spirit is Spirit” (John 3:4-6). So here, we can see that JESUS also drew the clear line of demarcation to Nicodemus, and He told him that he (Nicodemus) must not mix being born of the “FLESH” with being “BORN AGAIN” of His water and the Spirit which are parallel to each other because they can never meet or intersect. This was the main PROBLEM with Galatians and many Christians of today whose “BORN AGAIN” is according to their performance in obeying the “LAW” with their “FLESH” which is more stinky than excreta (faeces, sweat, and urine). If human excreta such as faeces, sweat, and urine is in the “FLESH,” can it obey the Holy and just “LAW” of the Lord God Almighty? After the FALL of man, our bodies were degenerated into this state of hopelessness, and nothing can CHANGE it unless our “soul” is “BORN AGAIN” through the BAPTISM, the BLOOD and RESURRECTION of CHRIST. We must all be Christians who are “WISE” and not “FOOLISH.” This is because whether we are spiritually “WISE” or “FOOLISH” will determine whether we will enter the “Kingdom of God” or not. The reason for this is because those who are spiritually “FOOLISH” will be DECEIVED by Satan just as he did to the Galatians, and he will take such people along with him to hell. Our study continues...........
