WE ARE WISHING YOU AND YOUR HOUSEHOLD A BLESSED GOOD FRIDAY AND A HAPPY PASSOVER CELEBRATION!

Saints of God Most High, hear God’s word for you today:

On the contrary, we are communicating a secret wisdom from God which has been hidden until now but which, before history began, God had decreed would bring us glory……….” (1 Corinthians 2:7-8).

But rather what we are setting forth is a wisdom of God once hidden from the human understanding and now revealed to us by God–that wisdom which God devised and decreed before the ages for our glorification to lift us into the glory of His presence.

None of the rulers of this age or world perceived, recognized and understood this, for if they had, they would never have crucified the Lord of glory.

THE CROSS OF CHRIST
The Christian life is not hearing nor knowing but doing. A Christian is the keyhole through which other folks see God.

Being a Christian is more than just an instantaneous conversion. It is a daily process whereby you grow to be more like Christ. We as Christians have a mandate to be non-conformists.

When Jesus Christ was put to death by being nailed to the wooden cross, satan and his agents thought they were just executing a man who was disturbing their normal way of life. They did not realize that the cross was planned by God from the beginning of the foundation of the world.

Through Jesus’ death on the cross, the Creator God was dealing with every person’s sin, suffering and sorrow. Jesus died in the place of every individual in the world. Accepting and receiving personally what Jesus has done on the cross brings the answer to all our needs.

THE MARVELLOUS WORK OF GOD THROUGH THE CROSS

God Almighty reveals His power through the cross (1 Corinthians 1:18 / Romans 1:16).
God shows His love on the cross  (Rom 5:8). God removed our sorrows on the cross. (Isaiah 53:4 ) Jesus took the punishment for our sins on the cross (Isaiah 53:5-6 / 1 Peter 2:24).

We obtained new relationship with God through the cross. God is holy and righteous but sin separates us from Him.
No one with sin in his / her heart is able to be in His glorious presence. Not only dying on the cross did Jesus suffer for us all but He also made it possible for us to know God personally.

Through Christ’s death, we experience the love, peace and joy through fellowshipping with Him. Through the cross we became acceptable to God (2 Corinthians 5:21). “For He made Him who knew no sin to be sin for us, that we might become the righteousness of God in Him.”

Through the cross we receive forgiveness of sins (Colossians 1:13-14 / 1 John 1:2).
Through the cross we became members of God’s family (Hebrews 2:11-12 / John 1:12).
Through the cross, racial barriers are broken (Galatians 2:13-16).

Everybody shout, “PRAISE THE LORD!

Shalom and good morning.

Dr. Daniel O. C.
