DONT DRAW BACK 2


Text: Hebrews 10:39 


 *But we are not of those who draw back to perdition, but of those who believe to the saving of the soul.* 


The moment a man gets born again, he has started a whole new journey into eternity. Being born again is not an end in itself. And being born again is not a tittle, it is an event that gives you the license to walk on the pathway to eternal life. 


Jesus said in John 3:3 that *except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.* That is, anyone who isn't born again lacks the understanding of what the kingdom of God is.

However,  it's one thing to have understanding of a thing, it's another thing to experience it.

To experience the kingdom of God,  you must journey with God. 


It's possible to draw back from the faith into perdition after one had been born again. That's why we are enjoined as God's children to hold fast that sound words we have received lest it slipped. 


Hold fast the form of sound words, which thou hast heard of me, in faith and love which is in Christ Jesus. 2 Timothy 1:13.


 *Therefore we ought to give the more earnest heed to the things which we have heard, lest at any time we should let them slip.* Hebrews  2:1 


You are not of those who draw back to perdition, so work out your salvation with fear and trembling.  Phil. 2:12. 


 *PRAYER FOCUS* 


1. Father,  give me grace to hold on to the end and never to draw back unto perdition.



 *Bible Reading:*  Hebrews 10:32-39.

THE GOOD FIGHT-2

Text:  1 Timothy  6:12   Fight the good fight of faith, lay hold on eternal life, whereunto thou art also called, and hast professed a good profession before many witnesses. Another thing to pursue in fighting the good fight of faith is Godliness. We understand through the Holy scriptures that godliness is profitable unto all things.   *For bodily exercise profiteth little: but godliness is profitable unto all things, having promise of the life that now is, and of that which is to come.* 1 Timothy  4:8.  You will reap the reward of your godliness not only when you get to heaven, but from here on earth. And this is why we are admonished to exercise ourselves unto godliness. (1 Timothy  4:7), because godliness with contentment is great gain.1 Timothy  6:6. Godliness is the practice of conforming to the image of God by reflecting the nature of the kingdom of God in the course of everyday life. In other words, godliness is living and portray...

IT IS WRITTEN AGAIN

Text: Matthew 4:6. He told Jesus, “Since you are the Son of God, throw yourself down, because it is written,   ‘God will put his angels in charge of you,’ and,   ‘With their hands they will hold you up, so that you will never hit your foot against a rock.’ Jesus knocked devil off with "it is written" when he came to him with the first temptation. So, the devil too decided to use "it is written" for Jesus for the second temptation.  Don't be deceived, the devil knows the scriptures too. Second Corinthians 11:14 says,  "Satan himself masquerades as an angel of light." So, it's no surprise when you see Satan's messengers masquerading themselves as Apostle of Christ. 2 Corinthians 11:14.  The word of God is perfect. Yet, many people can twist it to their advantage and ultimately to their disadvantage. A drunk, smoker, fornicator, liar and all sort can justify their sinful lifestyles with a Bible verse. See to it that you do not twist the word of Go...

WHEN GOD IS SILENT(2)

Text: Matthew 4:1  *Then Jesus was led up by the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted by the devil.*  We saw yesterday that God was not pleased with many israelites that left Egypt for the promised land  (Corinthians 10:5).  A good percentage of the Israelites were overthrown in the wilderness.   Wilderness experience is not what any child of God desires, but it is an experience God sends or allows his children go through. In Deuteronomy 8:2, God says that He *LED* the Isrealites through the wilderness for forty years to humble them, to prove them, and to know what was in their heart whether they would keep his commandments or not.  Our Lord Jesus Christ was also *LED* into the wilderness by the Spirit of the Lord to be tempted by the devil. You will  notice there is a similar feature of the number *40(forty)* between these two wilderness experiences. That is, that of the Israelites and our Lord Jesus Christ. The Israelites spent 40years, Jesu...
