The Law Which We are being Set Free From

 “And God spoke all these words, saying: ‘I am the Lord your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage. You shall have no other gods before Me. You shall not make for yourself a carved image, or any likeness of anything that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth; you shall not bow down to them nor serve them. For I, the Lord your God, am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers on the children to the third and fourth generations of those who hate Me” (Exodus 20:1-5). These are the first two commandments the Lord commanded Israel in the wilderness. Remember, these commandments were strictly for Israel and not for the  Christendom society. I believe that you know all the Ten Commandments that Moses introduced to the Israelites were engraved on two tablets by the finger of God on Mount Sinai. So, there is something I want to reveal to you here. These laws seem easy and doab...

The Powerful Message of the behind the Genealogy of Jesus Christ

In the beginning of the book of Matthew, he starts by revealing the genealogy of Jesus. This is what he wrote, “The book of the genealogy of Jesus Christ, the Son of David, the Son Abraham” (Matthew 1:1). Matthew reveals Jesus as the Son of David first then the Son of Abraham. Why? This is to reveal that Jesus is born from the royal family. David is the first king of Israel chosen by God. While Abraham is the only man whom God chose to give the inheritance of the earth to. The very next verses Matthew starts with the lineage of Abraham. This is what he wrote, “Abraham begot Isaac, Isaac begot Jacob, and Jacob begot Judah and his brothers. Judah begot Perez and Zerah by Tamar...” (Matthew 1:2-3). Matthew mentioned that Abraham begot Isaac without mentioning Sarah, and Isaac giving birth to Jacob without mentioning Rebekah. But when it comes to Judah became specific that Judah gave birth to Perez and Zerah by Tamar. Now who is Tamar? This is the occurrence of about 1718 BC ...

The Origin of Sin

Life commenced in the Garden of Eden, where the worst occurred. We have learnt that we have been freely sold or should I say given to the slave market of sin by Adam. Adam was surrounded by everything that was good, yet he fell as a result he gave mankind up for slavery. I mean like there was no need for them to eat from that tree because they were surrounded by many trees already with good fruits. Then this disobedience drove them out of the Garden. Let’s see in the bible, “Now the serpent was more cunning than any beast of the field which the L ORD God had made. And he said to the woman, ‘Has God indeed said, “You shall not eat of every tree of the garden?”’ And the woman said to the serpent, ‘We may eat the fruit of the trees of the garden; but of the fruit of the tree which is in the midst of the garden, God has said, “You shall not eat it, nor shall you touch it, lest you die”’. Then the serpent said to the woman, ‘You will not surely die. For God knows that in the day ...

The Consequences of Sin

In chapter 3 of the book of Genesis, we saw God cursing the serpent, both Adam and Eve and the ground. Now we get to see the curses being practical in chapter 4 of this very same book. This is when Cain rose up against Abel to murder him. This is the first man dying in the history of creation, and the first man dying is the innocent man. At this point and time, the creation has fallen because Adam had sinned. As for their children, they are both sinners because of their parents and their blood was not yet washed by the blood of the Lamb. Look at this story, “Now Adam knew Eve his wife, and she conceived and bore Cain, and said, ‘I have acquired a man from the L O RD ’. Then she bore again, this time his brother Abel. Now Abel was a keeper of sheep, but Cain was a tiller of the ground. And in the process of time it came to pass that Cain brought an offering of the fruit of the ground to the L ORD . Abel also brought of the firstborn of his flock and of their fat. And the L...
