Man's Need For Salvation...
All mankind is born with the nature of sin and cannot cleanse himself.  we all need a Savior. Salvation can only come through Jesus Christ. "for all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God,"Romans 3:23.
 

Secular men generally ignore the subject of the salvation of the soul. "The natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned," (I Corinthians 2:14). There are a number of intellectual and psychological hurdles that a godless mind must surmount before admitting the need for salvation:

These three are perhaps the most difficult:

1. The human soul is eternal: If the soul is not eternal, then there is no need for concern over salvation. If death means the annihilation of the individual, then there is no cause to be concerned about one’s eternal destiny. Before realizing the need for salvation, a person must admit the eternality of the soul.

2. Heaven and Hell are inescapable realities: Without the hope of spending eternity in the presence of God or the threat of being punished with eternal separation and condemnation, there is little reason to consider the need for salvation. Jesus taught the doctrines of Heaven and Hell more than any other Bible voice. If Jesus Christ is to be believed, then so are the doctrines of Heaven and Hell.

3. Every person will give account for his life before God - The Judge.
The wicked and the righteous will be forever separated. Thereafter, each will face either eternal damnation and separation from God or eternal salvation in the presence of God and the holy angels.

With these three things in mind, we will consider "Man's Need For Salvation," with particular focus on several scriptures from Romans, chapter 3. The scriptures have repeatedly demonstrated that when men do only what is right in their own eyes, and neglect the call of God unto a higher way of living, they are destined for a tragic ending. Whatever prevents a man from admitting his need for salvation, whether it be foolish pride, blasphemous mockery, or ignorant denial, only the truth can make him free.

SALVATION: Deliverance from Impending Death

Anyone of us should appreciate any efforts another person might show to save, preserve, rescue or deliver us from any danger or jeopardy. If an emergency rescue team flies a helicopter into a blinding snow-storm in search of a lost mountain climber, and successfully retrieves him from a perilous precipice, those efforts are considered heroic. Our efforts to declare the saving gospel of Jesus Christ should be considered far more heroic in eternal terms.

Whoever you are, you have got to understand that Salvation is what you need today...

WHO TOLD YOU

In a world of so many confusing theologies, lecturers becoming pastors after the order of a theological contraption of man’s idea, they become teachers of the word without any inspiration from the Holy Spirit; they turn the church into a congregation of graduated fun lovers.

Today, many teachings in our Churches clearly contradict scriptural instruction and these kinds of teachings have further impoverished the souls they were called to pastor. These congregants, without their notice have being gradually made twice a son of hell. One of these teachers when confronted with scriptural reality clearly said that mad men wrote the bible. Oh, mine! Is that a teacher of the word? These are many questions begging for answers.

Holiness, rapture of saint, everlasting destruction of a sinner are now relegated to the background. The question is this, WHO TOLD YOU? This is one of the earliest questions God asked Adam in the Garden of Eden. Today, the Holy Spirit is still asking the same question.

WHO TOLD YOU THAT YOU CANNOT LIVE A HOLY LIFE

Many have being deceived into believing that no one can live a holy life, a life well pleasing to God. They teach that one cannot live a holy life in the body and whatever sin one commits in the body is because the flesh is not born again. This is a lie from the pit of hell and a cunning device of the devil to separate you eternally from God. Read Gen. 6:9 17:1; Deut. 18:13; Matt. 5:43; 2 Corinth 13:15; Phil 3:15; 2 Tim.3:17; Heb. 12:23.

WHO TOLD YOU THAT IF YOU CAN’T BEAT THEM JOIN THEM

God’s move is not always with the majority and it must be said that with God majority does not carry the vote, for one with God is majority. Though this world has lost every sense of morality, as Christians we should not follow the multitude to do evil. Read Ex. 23:2; Prov. 1:10; Luke 13:24.

Today, the Lord is calling us to return to the original word that produces the original life. Have you heard the shout that is separating the chicken from the eagles, wheat from the tares? Have you heard the message of restoration back to the apostolic teaching? Jesus is calling you to come out of dead religion into the message of the hour. Come hear what will prepare you for heaven. Shalom.

HAVE YOU HEARD THE SHOUT

With high expectation, I waited for an important call, this call was to come at anytime without notice so I waited almost all day for it but it was not coming through.

I became hungry and decided to get some items from the neat-by grocery store which is less than two minutes away from my house when I came back, I quickly ran to the phone to see the call came in while went out. To my shock, I saw 3 missed call, no! I shouted instinctively, I decided to call back but it was a private number call, then I shouted have I missed this all important call.

The above story can actually happen to any one, a moment you are distracted, you miss it all. Expectation turns to frustration. Do you know that the Lord has separated the chickens from Eagles, tares from the wheat’s and goats from sheep’s 1Thess4:16; Matt25:32-34.

The shout is a message of RESTORATION calling us back to the Apostolic teaching and preparing us for the rapture of the saint. It is the power to come of dead works and returns to bible Christianity through Character transformation. It is the true message of the Messenger of the Seventh church age calling every believer to come out of dead religious practices into the marvelous light of God’s word.

Like the story above many are still missing this call to get some item from the grocery of dead religion and diluted and deluded teaching that carries no power of transformation.

This call is separating the foolish virgins from the wise ones it might interest you that they are all virgins, unspotted, undefiled and Holy Christians but they lack the extra oil that came from the message (shout) Matt25:6-10. Today, the Lord is calling His bride to come out of denominational error made religions and dead Christian practices that have no spiritual effect on one’s soul or eternal destination.

If you are ready for this call(shout) make yourself ready for the Lord is about to rapture His Saints, are you among this prepared bride who have made themselves ready

Warn Your Pastor

It is no longer the church of Jesus Christ when he sets up a Church as his business empire i.e. The husband is the general overseer (chairman) his wife assistant overseer (Managing Director), while the children or relations are in charge of their finances of the church (Acts 6:1-6). Deacons are to be elected by the church to take care of that your pastor has no business being the sole signatory to the church account though he oversees and coordinates the activities of the entire Church. What was the position of Peter's wife in the first Church? But we see how church leaders are cleverly grooming their wives to take over the business empire when they die. The true church of Christ does not run as a family business.

WARN YOUR PASTOR

Ask him where he got these titles from Rev. (Dr) Mrs. Rev, Most Senior Apostle, Arch Bishop, General Superintendent, His Grace, His Eminence, His Holiness Commander, Pope e.t.c who made him a general over Gods people? The Apostle who brought us the gospel told us that they are our example. What title did they bear? Jesus warned us of this spirit. (Matthew 23:1-12) And if you are sincere, you will not take a little that is un-scriptural. Our master Jesus Christ was so common even among twelve apostles that they needed a Judas to identify him to the enemy. Why do pastors decorate special seat for them and their wife in the Church? Wearing of special garment, special cross carrying of which the Pentecostals have adopted from their Catholic master. Many are too big to carry their own bible.

The Word

The WORD (which has been existing, which IS the Father Himself according to John1:1-3) made manifest in the FLESH as The SON JESUS CHRIST The Nazarene(which WAS the same as in the beginning) Proclaiming that same WORD (which is a Revelation of His-Self, Remember the Gospel Of Restoration started after His Resurrection) which IS the MESSAGE, the END TIME MESSAGE, taking us through the different churches ages unto perfection, preparing us for His return...

Then i realized why in Revelation 1:8 He said I am the Alpha and Omega the Beginning and the Ending, saith the Lord. Which is, and which was, and which is to come, Almighty.

Who Told You 2

Dear reader, do you want to be separated from the presence of God? Then stop arguing with God because to argue with God is to argue with the very power that makes it possible to argue at all. The Lord has given to mankind the simple instruction for eternal life but yet many are still directly or indirectly rejecting that instruction and arguing it away by saying, HAS GOD SAID?

Beloved, my candid answer to this whole argument many find themselves today is “WHO TOLD YOU” yes, who told you? Who told you that you can argue with the written word? It doesn’t need any interpreted it has already being interpreted, what it needs is an understanding.

Who Told You 1

It was a very calm and serene environment; every thing seems to be going on well, human and natures were in state of tranquility, until suddenly there was an evil suggestion that brought the entire serenity to a halt. “HAS GOD SAID”? (Genesis 3:1)

Eve had the commandment, Satan knew the consequence, but she chose to go the way of disobedience and everlasting damnation. After the deed has being done the trading of blames began but the judgment was severe, it was a total separation from the eternal essence they were created to enjoy.

Dear reader, do you know many are still making choices that separate them from the very thing they were created to enjoy? They are still listening to the same satanic suggestion which is “HAS GOD SAID”? Many are still arguing with the written and infallible word of God as if by doing so they can arm twist God to accepting their wayward and recalcitrant nature.

When God came to accord them the recompense for their disobedient, He asked them this thought provoking rhetoric question, “WHO TOLD YOU”? Blame trading could not pacify the judgment of separation from His presence; man from that day was reduced to a life of suffering, hardship and death.
