Christianity and Homosexuality

Romans_12-1: I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service

Memory Verse:

“And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient;” – Romans 1:28

Bible Passage:

Rom.1:21-28

INTRODUCTION
Today, especially in the western world, homosexuals and lesbians have gained substantial momentum. They have “come out” as the term goes, left their closets. Through television, radio, newspapers, and magazines, they are preaching their doctrine of tolerance, equality, justice, and love. They do not want to be perceived as abnormal or dangerous. They want to be recognised and accepted socially, politically etc. In this study we shall examine the biblical perspective and the Christian worldview as touching this subject matter. Be blessed.

OUTLINE
1. WHAT IS HOMOSEXUALITY?
2. SOCIETAL ATTITUDE
3. WHAT DOES THE BIBLE SAY?

WHAT IS HOMOSEXUALITY?
Homosexuality is a relationship that involves having sexual intercourse with the people of the same sex. It is referred to as ‘lesbianism’ among the female gender. Homosexuality is not natural. A look at the male and female bodies reveals that they are obviously designed to couple. The natural design is apparent. It is not natural to couple male with male and female with female. Homosexual desires, which may feel natural, are actually unnatural. Other perverted sexual relationships are: paedophilia – an abnormal sexual attraction to children and bestiality – sexual relationship with animals.

SOCIETAL ATTITUDE
Pro- homosexual politicians and the homosexual community want legal protection for having intercourse with the people of the same sex. They also want their views taught in schools, promoted over the airwaves and codified in literature. The homosexual community also attempts to use political power to try and control the church.

WHAT DOES THE BIBLE SAY?
The Bible has much to say about homosexuality:
1. Gen. 19:4—5 – ‘But before they lay down, the men of the city, even the men of Sodom, compassed the house round, both old and young, all the people from every quarter: And they called unto Lot, and said unto him, Where are the men which came in to thee this night? bring them out unto us, that we may know them.

 
2. Lev. 18:22 – ” Thou shalt not lie with mankind, as with womankind: it is abomination.”

 
3. Lev. 20:13 – ” If a man also lie with mankind, as he lieth with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination: they shall surely be put to death; their blood shall be upon them.”

 
4. 1 Cor. 6:9-10 – ” Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind, Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God.”

 
5. Rom. 1:26-28 – ” For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature: And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompence of their error which was meet. And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient”.

CONCLUSION
The Bible surely has crystal clear statements against homosexuality. Hence, it is difficult to see how different groups can say the Bible supports homosexuality. But they try by redefining love, marriage, sex, homosexuality, etc. in order to accomplish their goal. But the truth is that God created man and woman, not man and man, or woman and woman.

QUESTIONS
1. What is homosexuality?
2. What is the attitude of the society to homosexuality?
3. What does the bible say about homosexuality?

 
Rom 1:28

-Retain God in your knowledge and ways.

 
1 Cor 6:20

• Honour God with your body.

 
1 Cor 6:18

• Flee from sexual immorality.

 
1Thess 4:4

• Be self-controlled.

 
1 Tim 5:22

• Keep yourself pure.

 
Lev 20:13

– Homosexuality is an abomination.

 
1Thess 5:22

• Abstain from all appearances of evil.

Divine Missions 3

Matthew_10-16: Behold, I send you forth as sheep in the midst of wolves: be ye therefore wise as serpents, and harmless as doves

MEMORY VERSE:

” And, behold, I send the promise of my Father upon you: but tarry ye in the city of Jerusalem, until ye be endued with power from on high.” Luke 24:49

BIBLE PASSAGE:

Acts 2:1-24

INTRODUCTION
Like any other work of God, the work of missions in particular must not be done in the flesh so that frustration, failure and discouragement would not come in. Today, we want to look at the power behind effective missionary activities.

OUTLINE
1. THE HOLY SPIRIT AND MISSIONS
2. THE HOLY SPIRIT AS DIRECTOR OF MISSIONARY ACTIVITIES

THE HOLY SPIRIT AND MISSIONS
The three Persons of the Trinity are all missions-minded. We have seen God the Father and God the Son in our previous studies. The Holy Spirit cannot be left out in this work of bringing the world to the saving knowledge of Jesus Christ. In fact, the Holy Spirit, the third Person in the Trinity, is a missionary Spirit. He is a sent One. Jesus had promised His disciples before He left that He would not leave them comfortless and that He would send the Spirit of truth to be with the believers. The Holy Spirit came at Pentecost in a special and unmistakable way although before then He had been active in the world in various ways –Acts 2:1-4; Genesis 1:2; 2 Chro. 20:14; Judges 15:14.

He is sent by the Father in Jesus’ name. – John 16:7; John 14:26, Luke 24:49; Acts 1 :4-5; John 14:16-26.

His ministry to believers is to teach and encourage them – John 16:13-15. He also has a missionary ministry to the unbelievers in convicting them –John 16:8-11 and in regenerating –John 3:8.
The Holy Spirit and missions are inseparable. Missions work cannot be effective neither can it succeed without the Spirit. Like in any other spiritual activity, the Holy Spirit is indispensable to missionary activities. The Holy Spirit is to missions what food is to the body. If one does not eat well, it will affect the body adversely. In the same manner, if one does not seek the help of the Holy Spirit, he would be labouring for nothing – Acts 8:29

THE HOLY SPIRIT AS DIRECTOR OF MISSIONARY ACTIVITIES
The book of Acts shows the Spirit of God in action as the Apostles and other believers moved from place to place and nations to nations to preach the good news. The Holy Spirit was so important to the missionary activity of the Church that the work could not begin until the Holy Spirit arrived. As a matter of fact, Jesus specifically told His disciples that they could only carry out the great commission effectively when the Spirit must have arrived – Luke 24:49; Acts 1 :4-5. The Holy Spirit is the power behind missions (Acts 1 :8.) He is the One that can provide power for the work to stand.

 
It is significant to note that God decided to send the Spirit on the day of Pentecost when men “from every nation under heaven” were in Jerusalem. Since the message is for all nations, God sent the power to make the message effective on the day men from different languages, tribes and people were gathered. This is very instructive indeed and it shows how important this work is to God. What happened on that day of Pentecost reveals the missionary emphasis of the Spirit. The Spirit also empowered the disciples to speak in the language of all these people – Acts 2:6.

Peter preached on the prophecy that God in Spirit was to be poured out on “all flesh” Acts 2:16-20 – that whoever called on the name of the Lord would be saved – Acts 2:21 – and said the promise of the Spirit was available to “all that are far off. “(Acts 2:38-39.) Pentecost was the birthday of the missions as well as the Church.

 
The Spirit sent Philip to speak to the Ethiopian eunuch – Acts 8:29. He told Peter to go to the Gentile Cornelius – Acts 10:19-20 – and authenticated the conversion of the Gentiles – Acts 10:44-47 – to the Jews who did not want to accept them into the Church.

It was the Spirit who told the prophets and teachers at Antioch to send out the first missionary team – Acts 13:2 – and the Spirit Himself also sent them out – Acts 13:4. This agrees with the commission given previously to Paul on the road to Damascus – Acts 26:16-23 – and in the Temple (Acts 22:21) and through Ananias (Acts 9:15-16) that he was to be a missionary to the Gentiles.

The Holy Spirit prevented them from going to Asia Minor and directed them to Macedonia, a new continent. The Spirit continued to direct their movements. –Acts 16:6-7; Acts 16:8-10,Acts 19:21,Acts 20:22-23.

CONCLUSION
It is unfortunate today that many believers do not reckon with the Holy Spirit any longer. No wonder, the apostles succeeded greatly because they allowed the Holy Spirit to have His way. We should follow their examples.

QUESTIONS
1. What is the role of the Holy Spirit in missions?
2. Why must we give the Holy Spirit free room to operate in our lives?

Acts 3:19

• We must turn away from anything we do that God does not approve of.

 
1 Corinthians 8:8

• Too much of anything is not good so let us control our appetite.

 
Galatians 5:5

• Too much of uncontrolled freedom leads to bondage.

 
Ephesians 2:8

• Salvation is a gift. Our part is to receive it.

 
Colossians 3:1

• Let your thoughts be more horizontal than vertical.

 
Ephesians 4:12

• Whatever God has given us, let us use it to His glory.

 
Philippians 1 :15

• I must preach Christ because I love Him.

Thank You Jesus!

Psalms, Hymns And Spiritual Songs

Psalms_100-2: Serve the LORD with gladness: come before his presence with singing

Psalms_89-1-2: I will sing of the mercies of the LORD for ever: with my mouth will I make known thy faithfulness to all generations

MEMORY VERSE:

“Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom; teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord”  Colossians 3:16

BIBLE PASSAGE:

Psalms 33:1-8

OUTLINE
1. PSALMS
2. HYMNS AND SPIRITUAL SONGS

PSALMS
Psalms literally means “song sung to a harp’- Ps. 98:5. This implies that psalms are ways of singing to God. Psalms are also what one sings to talk about God’s wondrous ways –– Ps. 105:2, Ps. 33:2-5, 1 Chron. 16:9 – and to reflect the mercies of God on one’s life- Ps. 89:1.

One of the ways we can utilise our moment is by singing psalms – Jam. 5:13. Psalms are ways we can use to enter into the presence of God – Ps. 95:2. There are psalms of thanksgiving – Ps. 30, psalms of praise – Ps 117, Ps. 145:1, prophetic – Ps 2:1-12; Psalm 16:1-11, penitential– Ps 6:1-10; Psalm 25:1-22, intercessional– Ps 20:1-9; Psalm 67:1-7, psalms of afflictions – Ps 3:1-8; Psalm 4:1-8, didactic– Ps 1:1-6; Psalm 5:1-12, historical – Ps 78:1-72; Psalm 105:1-45 etc

HYMNS AND SPIRITUAL SONGS
Hymns are religious canticles, songs, or psalms. In Eph 5:19 and Col 3:16, Paul requires Christians to edify one another with “psalms and hymns and spiritual songs.” Matthew 26:30 says that Christ and His disciples, having supped, sang a hymn, and went out.

 
Hymns and spiritual songs are songs inspired by God and written by spiritual people or on spiritual subjects. – Ps. 42:8. One very good habit believers should cultivate is the act of singing hymns and spiritual songs. – Eph. 5:19.

Today, we have all kinds of songs – including those that feed our pride and glorify the flesh and even the devil. Not using appropriate hymns and songs has seriously affected our worship. One of the fastest ways we can load our lives with the word of God is by singing hymns – Col 3:16.

However, we must be born again before we can live a life full of hymns and spiritual songs. A life that is void of God will struggle with the messages in these hymns.

CONCLUSION
One of the ways one can maximise gains from psalms, hymns and songs is for one to be born again and be filled with the Holy Spirit. Hymns come from divine inspiration, therefore, one must be in the spirit to get the best from them.

QUESTIONS
1. What are the source(s) of psalms, hymns and spiritual songs?
2. What are the benefits of psalms, hymns and spiritual songs?

Ps. 42:8

– Let God’s song be with you always.

 
Mark 14:26

• God’s hymns lead us in the journey of life

 
James 5:13

• Sing psalms always.

 
2 Cor. 1:4

– God comforts us all the time.

 
Col 3:16

– Let God’s word dwell in you richly.

 
Ps. 105:2

– Talk of all God’s wondrous works all the time.

 
Eph. 5: 19

– Let your mouth be seasoned with songs.

Thank You Jesus!

Divine Missions 2

John_5-24: Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that heareth my word, and believeth on him that sent me, hath everlasting life, and shall not come into condemnation; but is passed from death unto life

MEMORY VERSE:

“Jesus saith unto them, My meat is to do the will of him that sent me, and to finish his work.” John 4:34

BIBLE PASSAGE:

Isaiah 61:1-3

INTRODUCTION
In our last lesson on divine missions, we were told who a missionary is so that we do not begin to have a wrong idea about him. Missionaries are people with a call. They are special. It is interesting to note that Jesus our Lord was a missionary. May the Spirit of the Lord open our hearts as we study, in Jesus’ name.

OUTLINE
1. JESUS AS A MISSIONARY
2. JESUS AS A SENDER OF MISSIONARIES

JESUS AS A MISSIONARY
The most important aspect of the definition of a missionary is that a higher authority sent Jesus. Jesus said it several times that He was sent by the Father whom He said is greater than Him – John 7:16, John 9:4, John 3:17, John 17:4. Jesus mentioned the fact that His father sent Him, forty three times in the Gospel of John as well as in the other Gospels. The purpose of this sending was that the world might be saved.

 
Another thing about a missionary is that his work usually requires a change in location as well as culture. Jesus left Heaven, a different place, with a different culture, different language and a different people to come to this earth that is different in every way to Heaven so that we would know and serve the true God. He came to provide us with salvation and reconcile us to God – John 8:23; John 5:33-38; Acts 26:16-18; Luke 19:10.

 
What did Jesus do as a missionary?

He taught publicly and ministered to the crowd. He taught both Jews and Gentiles such as the Samaritan woman in John 4 who recognised Him as the Saviour of the world. He met the Syro-pheonician woman (Matt. 15:21-28), the Roman Centurion (Matthew 8:5-13), healed the possessed man and other people in Decapolis (Matthew 5:1-20; Matthew 7:31-37.)

Those Gentiles put their faith in Him as He helped them. He first sent them to the Jews and later to all nations. This is cross-cultural missions – Matthew 28:19-20; Matthew 10:5-7. We must teach, preach and heal. We must be ready to suffer in order to take the Gospel to those not yet reached who are lost. We must complete His work by taking the news to them – Matthew 4:23.

JESUS AS A SENDER OF MISSIONARIES
Jesus was not only a missionary but also sends out missionaries to all the nations of the world to preach the good news. Jesus, during His ministry on earth, said the good news about Him would be preached to the whole world. This did not materialise until His resurrection from the dead. Before He went back to Heaven, He commissioned all His disciples in what is generally known as, ”The Great Commission” to take the Gospel to all the nooks and crannies of the earth. We all are His disciples and therefore should be fully involved in carrying out His instructions – Mark 16:15-16; Luke 24:45-49; John 20:21-22; Acts 1 :8.

 
This instruction was given at various times. It was given on the resurrection day, as recorded by Mark, Luke and John, on the mount of Olives before His ascension and on the mount of Galilee as recorded by Matthew. This instruction was so important to Jesus that He had to give it more than once. He also gave Paul a similar call in Acts 26:16-18. The prayer of Jesus in John 17:18 clearly shows that sending people out was part of what Christ was sent to do.

CONCLUSION
We cannot afford to disobey the Lord in this regard. If He takes it seriously, we must also.

QUESTIONS
1. Why did Jesus repeat the instructions to preach to all nations several times?
2. Apart from Jesus and Paul, name three other missionaries in the New Testament.

 
Isaiah 6:8-9

-We must be ready always to do God’s work with our whole heart.

 
Isaiah 5:14

• People go to hell everyday in large numbers. Let us rescue them.

 
John 3:3

• Before you tell others about Christ, Christ must be in you.

 
Matthew 5:9

• To make peace between God and man, this is our work.

 
Hebrews 10:39

-No matter what we may be going through, going back is not the best option.

 
1 Peter 3: 15

• Christ must be the reason for anything we do.

 
James 1 :22

• Let us do the word that we may see the Lord.

Thank You Jesus!

Matthew_28-19-3: Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost

Soul Winning, An Unusual Strategy

Proverbs_11-30: The fruit of the righteous is a tree of life; and he that winneth souls is wise

Memory verse:

“For though I be free from all men, yet have I made myself servant unto all, the I might gain the more.” I Cor. 9:19

Bible Passage:

I Cor. 9: 19-23

INTRODUCTION
Our Captain, the Lord Jesus Christ, gave us a mandate. Today, we will take a look at the mandate and strategies to help us fulfil this important mandate. May the Holy Spirit open the spirit of our understanding, in Jesus’ name. Amen!

OUTLINE
1. PRIMARY MANDATE OF BELIEVERS
2. UNUSUAL STRATEGIES

PRIMARY MANDATE OF BELIEVERS
Jesus Christ commands the believer to go into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature-Mark 16:15. Believers must ensure that the fruit he/she bears abide so that his/her prayers in life will never be hindered – John 15: 16. It is highly imperative to follow – up the convert so as to prevent loss – Col. 1:28. Souls won must always be prayed for and catered for- Col 1:9.

 
Our primary mandate as believers is to make soul wining a continuous practice till Jesus comes back in His power and glory- Act.1:6-8, 2 Tim 4:5. Part of our mandate is also to be highly committed even to the less privileged – Matt 25:41-45. Reason is that the Lord will come sooner than ever imagined.

UNUSUAL STRATEGIES
1. Small public address system fixed on top of your car blasting the gospel.

 
2. Sudden creation of gospel scene at a very busy road junction, like drama or
playlets.

 
3. Collection of G.S.M numbers and sending gospel bulk SMS.

 
4. Flying of helicopter to distribute gospel tracts in communities and later
follow it with preaching man to man.

 
5. Counselling outlet could be established to minister unto people’s problems
one on one, free of charge. Showing of exceptional care to the counselee after meeting with them.

 
6. Through free medical care/visiting of hospital, orphanages from time to time – Acts. 20:34-35.

 
7. Signing-up with organisations like the Red Cross and witness for Christ as you minister to people in devastated areas – Matt 10:32.

 
8. Living a complete Christ-like life.

 
9. Establishment of vocational and Extra-mural classes in especially educationally disadvantage areas.

 
10. Reaching out to prisoners.

CONCLUSION
Ensure you break every barrier that limits your contact with souls.

Questions
1. How can souls be won in the ghetto and prison yard?
2. What could be done to win the “MD/CEO” of a multinational company for Christ?

 
Mark 16:15

• Go and preach the gospel to every creature.

I Cor. 9:19

• I can gain more souls for Christ.

Acts. 10: 15

• What God hath cleansed, that call not thou common.

Matt. 25:45

• Love your neighbour.

I Cor. 9:24

• Run so that you may win.

1 Cor. 9:27

• Keep your body under.

Col 1:9

– Win souls and care for them.

Thank You Jesus!

Divine Missions

Matthew_10-16: Behold, I send you forth as sheep in the midst of wolves: be ye therefore wise as serpents, and harmless as doves

MEMORY VERSE:

“Then said Jesus to them again, Peace be unto you: as my Father hath sent me, even so send I you.” John 20:21

BIBLE PASSAGE:

Genesis 12: 1-3

INTRODUCTION
A great number of believers are indifferent towards missions and missionary work. Little do they know that missions is the heartbeat of God. God has been behind missionary activities since the fall of man. Today, we want to study about God and His missionary purpose to all nations. May the Lord open our eyes to see what He wants us to see, in Jesus’ name.

OUTLINE
1. GOD’S MISSIONARY PURPOSE
2. WHO IS A MISSIONARY?

GOD’S MISSIONARY PURPOSE
If not for God who revealed to us through His word, we would not have known that we are supposed to take the Gospel to the whole world – Matthew 24:14; Matthew 28:19-20; Luke 24:47.

God created man for His glory and to fellowship with Him but Satan came in and destroyed that fellowship – Genesis 2: 19-22; Genesis 3:5; Isaiah 43:21. God is interested in removing every barrier to that fellowship. God is a missionary God. We can see God’s missionary purpose to all nations right through the Bible particularly after the tragic fall of man – Genesis 3: 1-15; Jonah 1 :2.

 
God’s first reaction was to promise that the seed of the woman would crush the head of the serpent, even though he would also suffer in the process – Genesis 3:15. Sin and defeat came to all people through the head of the human race, Adam. The defeat of Satan will come for all Adam’s descendants (all nations) through this promise.

 
The covenant with Noah and his descendants – Genesis 9:1-17, was with all mankind in every nation. The call of Abram – Genesis 12 was not to give special privileges to a special nation but to provide a means for God to save all nations. God needed someone to keep the knowledge of the true God alive in the world. God’s intention was to use a nation who would write down the revelations of God and preserve them as a message to all nations (the Bible.) In the nation, He used a family as the preserver of truth. God told Abraham, “…in thee all families of the earth be blessed.” – Genesis 12:3, Genesis 18:18, Genesis 22:18. Therefore, the call of Abraham was purposely aimed at bringing salvation to all nations.

WHO IS A MISSIONARY?
Some people think a missionary is a white man who comes from a rich country, advanced in technology and education. Because of the advantages of his culture, he comes to help those less fortunate by starting schools, hospitals and preaching the Gospel. The word, “missionary” comes from the Latin word, “mitto” which means, “to send.” The Greek equivalent is “apostello.”

A missionary then is someone who is sent with a commission from a higher authority – John 20:21; Acts 13:1-3. Some of the missionaries introduced to us in the Bible are Jonah, Barnabas, Silas, Timothy.

CONCLUSION
Since God takes missions seriously, we as His people should not do less. We must find our place in the business of preaching the Gospel to the whole world and play our parts well.

QUESTIONS
1. Why is missions the heartbeat of God?
2. How do you know a missionary?
3. What kind of blessing is God talking about in Genesis 12:3?

Jonah 1:4

• Do not cause people trouble by refusing to preach to them.

 
1 Corinthians 1 :18

• You are denying people the power of God if you fail to preach the Gospel.

 
1 Corinthians 9: 16

• We are not doing God any favour if we share His love with sinners. It is a command.

 
1 Corinthians 9: 18

• We should not preach the Gospel with the intention of exploiting people.

 
1 Corinthians 9:29

• We must practice what we preach so that we would not be hypocrites.

 
2 Corin. 4:8

• Doing God’s will may bring persecution but we must not relent.

 
2 Corinthians 4:5

• Jesus only should be our message and nothing else.

Thank You Jesus!

Watch That Tongue Of Yours

Proverbs_21-23: Whoso keepeth his mouth and his tongue keepeth his soul from troubles

Isaiah_54-17: No weapon that is formed against thee shall prosper; and every tongue that shall rise against thee in judgment thou shalt condemn. This is the heritage of the servants of the LORD, and their righteousness is of me, saith the LORD

Introduction:
The road to heaven is very narrow. Very few people ultimately get there! However, we are determined to make it and we pray that you will make it also. But one of the greatest weapon of satan in preventing you from getting there could be your tongue as Psalm 15:3 clearly shows.

1. With what is the tongue compared?

Can you mention some good comparison?
Psalm 5:9; Romans 3:1-14; Psalm 140:3; Psalm 55:21; Proverbs 5:3-4; James 3:6; Proverbs 16:27
The mouth of a sinner is likened to the graveyard and the poison of the tongue to that of a serpent for that matter. The tongue is also compared to a sharp sword and even to fire! This is particularly true of smooth-talking liars.

2. Why the tongue is described so badly?

Why is it likened to such terrible things as the poison of serpent, a sharp sword and fire? Can you give some reasons?
Psalm 73:8-9; Psalms 10:7; Matthew 15:11; James 3:4-5; Psalms 53:1.
The tongue is compared to terrible and destructive things because of the havoc that an uncontrolled tongue can cause. Evil words cause hardship and pain, wickedness and vanity are associated with the tongue and as small as the tongue is, it is extremely dangerous because it is what a sinner employs while denying God.

3. What dangers are there for anyone who does not control his/her tongue?

Why is it those whose tongues are not controlled are heading for hell? Give some reasons?
Leviticus 19:16; Exodus 20:16; Psalms 12:3-4; Matthew 12:31-37.
God forbids the misuse of the tongue like tale-bearing, lying, deceit, false witnessing and flattering, the unforgivable sin can only be committed through the tongue.

4. If you want to reach heaven, how much you use your tongue matters.

Give some suggestions. Psalms 51:14, Psalms 35:28; 1 Thessalonian 5:17. Sin praises! Pray without ceasing.

 
Conclusion:
Where will you spend eternity, in Heaven or in hell? If it is in heaven, then do something about that tongue of yours. Employ it in praising the Lord always. Shall we praise Him now?

Thank You Jesus.

The Reward Of The Diligence

Hebrews_11-6: But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him

Deuteronomy_6-7: And thou shalt teach them diligently unto thy children, and shalt talk of them when thou sittest in thine house, and when thou walkest by the way, and when thou liest down, and when thou risest up.

Text:
Hebrews 6:11
We want each of you to show this same diligence to the very end, so that what you hope for may be fully realized.

Introduction:
Diligence is the act of faithfulness in doing what you are committed to do. Every believer has been given a particular assignment in God’s vineyard. No matter how big or small our position may be in God’s vineyard, it is expected of every one of us to be diligent in our service to God.

Examples Of People Who Were Diligent In The Bible
1. Joshua was diligent in carrying out God’s instruction for the conquest of Jericho.
Joshua 1:7
Be strong and very courageous. Be careful to obey all the law my servant Moses gave you; do not turn from it to the right or to the left, that you may be successful wherever you go

2. Abraham was diligent in obeying God’s command to leave his people and go to a new place.

Genesis 12:1
The Lord had said to Abram, “Go from your country, your people and your father’s household to the land I will show you.

3. David was diligent in obeying God’s order to pursue the Amalekites.

1 Samuel 30:8
And David inquired at the LORD, saying, Shall I pursue after this troop? shall I overtake them? And he answered him, Pursue: for thou shalt surely overtake them, and without fail recover all.

4. Our Lord Jesus Christ was diligent in doing His Father’s Will.

John 9:4
As long as it is day, we must do the works of him who sent me. Night is coming, when no one can work.

Luke 2:49
“Why were you searching for me?” he asked. “Didn’t you know I had to be in my Father’s house?”

Benefits of Diligence
1. It makes one to be bold.
Proverbs 22:29
Seest thou a man diligent in his business? he shall stand before kings; he shall not stand before mean men.

2. It results in success and progress.
Deut. 28:1
And it shall come to pass, if thou shalt hearken diligently unto the voice of the Lord thy God, to observe and to do all his commandments which I command thee this day, that the Lord thy God will set thee on high above all nations of the earth:

Proverbs 12:24
Diligent hands will rule, but laziness ends in forced labor.

Proverbs 13:4
Lazy people want much but get little,
but those who work hard will prosper.

3. It results in inner strength and focus.
Eph 6:10
Finally, be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power.

4. Favour of God is assured.

Exodus 15:26
He said, “If you listen carefully to the Lord your God and do what is right in his eyes, if you pay attention to his commands and keep all his decrees, I will not bring on you any of the diseases I brought on the Egyptians, for I am the Lord, who heals you.”

Proverbs 11:27
He that diligently seeketh good procureth favour: but he that seeketh mischief, it shall come unto him.

Conclusion:
It is important to be diligent in all we do for us to get the best out of our service to God and be fulfilled in life.

Thank You Jesus!

All Scripture Is Given By Inspiration Of God

2-Timothy_3-16: All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness

MEMORY VERSE:

“All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: “ – 2 Timothy 3:16

BIBLE PASSAGE:

2 TIMOTHY 3:14-17

INTRODUCTION
The Scripture is the compilation of prophecies (God’s words) from different prophets over a very long time. These formed the Bible.

The Holy Book contains the Old Testament and the New Testament written by divine inspiration – 2 Tim 3:16.

God’s word is eternally true and never fails – Ps 119:89-160; Isa 40:8; 2 Pet. 1:19, 1 Cor. 2:7-15. Prophecy came not in olden time by the will of man, but holy men of God spoke as they were moved by the Holy Ghost. I pray that the Holy Ghost will use the power in His words to give us spiritual healing, deliverance, faith, rebirth ,wisdom and strength in Jesus’ name. Amen.

OUTLINE

1. INSPIRED AND PROFITABLE
2. REMINDS ONE OF FALSE DOCTRINES IN THE LAST DAYS

INSPIRED AND PROFITABLE
The Bible was written by divine inspiration and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction and for instruction in righteousness- 2Tim 3:16; 1 Thess. 2:13, 2 Pet. 1:21, Heb. 1:1. ‘Scripture’ derives from the Latin word ‘’scriptura’’ which means ‘writing’ – Exod.  32:15-16, 2 Chron. 36:22.

 
What are the things that make the Scripture profitable:

(i) Jesus Christ used the scripture to overcome Satan- Matt. 4:4-10 Matt. 21:13.

(ii) These prophetic words are powerful – Jn. 6:63; Ps. 33:6-9, Heb. 11:3.

(iii) God’s word is our spiritual weapon – Eph 6:17,Jer 5:14; Jer. 23:29 Heb 4:12

(iv) It saves us and gives us spiritual rebirth-1 Pet. 1:23

(v) it gives faith, truth, wisdom and strength – Rom. 10:17; Ps.19 :7b

(vi) Meditation in the word causes prosperity and success – Josh. 1:8; Ps. 1:2-3 ;1Tim 4:15.

(vii) It is the source of eternal life for the believers –Jn. 5:39.

REMINDS ONE OF FALSE DOCTRINES IN THE LAST DAYS
Doctrine is a belief or set of beliefs held and taught by a group or sect. We have doctrine of man – Matt. 15:9, Matthew 16:12, Eph 4:14.

For instance, there is doctrine of Balaam- Rev 2:14.

We also have doctrine of the Nicolaitans – Rev. 2:15.

The most important doctrine is the doctrine of Christ – Matt.7:28-29; Mk. 4:2, Jn. 7:16-17.

We are to obey the doctrines of Christ – Rom 6:17, 1 Tim 4:6-13.

Other doctrines apart from that of Christ are of Satan and should be avoided- Jer. 23:16-22.
In the last days, many will turn away from the doctrine of Christ to false doctrines similar to those of Balaam, the Nicolaitans and of Jezebel –1Tim 4:1-2, 2 Tim.3:8-10.

The scripture has already warned us- Rev 2:7a.

CONCLUSION
Take heed to the scripture, it will surely be fulfilled –Matt 5:18.

QUESTIONS
(1) Define the scripture and give some of its importance.
(2) Mention some doctrines of Satan.

2 Tim 4:13

• Give attention to doctrine.

2 Tim: 4 15-16

• Continue in the doctrine till Jesus comes.

1 Pet. 1:23

-The scripture can save us and give us spiritual rebirth.

Joshua 1:8

• Meditation in the scripture causes prosperity and success.

Rom. 10:17

• The scripture gives faith and strength.

Jn. 6:63

• The scripture has power to heal our soul, spirit and body.

Deut. 28:1-15

• Obedience to the scripture brings blessings.

Deut 28:1-15

Thank You Jesus!

RESTITUTION 2

Pastor E A Adeboye, Daddy G O

MEMORY VERSE:

• “And Zacchaeus stood, and said unto the Lord; Behold, Lord, the half of my goods I give to the poor; and if I have taken any thing from any man by false accusation, I restore him fourfold.” – Luke 19:8

BIBLE PASSAGE:

Exodus 22:1-13

INTRODUCTION

One of the biblical evidences of genuine repentance is restitution. It is only a genuinely converted believer that can take steps to make restitution of wrongs which were made at the time of ignorance. It is the desire of God for us to correct past wrongs which are correctable. In this lesson we shall consider some of them.

OUTLINE
1. WHY MAKE RESTITUTION?
2. EXAMPLES OF RESTITUTION IN THE BIBLE
3. SOME SPECIFIC RESTITUTION TO MAKE

WHY MAKE RESTITUTION?
We make restitution for three major reasons:
a) God commands it – Lev. 6:1-5; Ex. 22:10-13.

 
b) To have a clear conscience towards God and towards man – 1 Sam. 12:1-5; Acts 24:16.

 
c) It is the evidence of our conversion which shows our readiness to obey the scriptures – Lk. 19:8-9; Ezek. 33:14-16.

EXAMPLES OF RESTITUTION IN THE BIBLE
There are also examples of people who made restitution in the Bible.

These include Abimelech, Joseph’s brothers, Old testament kings and prophets, Zacchaeus, during the time of our Lord Jesus and the apostles – Gen. 20:6-14; Gen. 50:15-19; 1 Kgs. 20:34; Neh. 5:11-12; Lk. 19:8-9; Acts 23:1-5; Philm 10:17-19.

SOME SPECIFIC RESTITUTIONS TO MAKE
a. We should return things that we have stolen, picked or converted to our own use but which belong to another person or to our place of work. These include our tithes and first fruits, the non-payment of which is robbery and which we must restore – Lev. 6:2-5; Lk. 19:8; Mal. 3:8; Lev. 5:14-16.

 
b. We should replace things we have destroyed which belong to another person- Ex. 22:5-6; Ex. 21:18-19.

 
c. We should also reconcile with people we quarrelled with in the past – Matt. 5:23-25; Mt. 18:15-17.

 
d. We should make restitution of all lies and things wrongly said about someone and which has affected the person or is presently causing trouble – 2 Sam. 16:5-8; 2 Sam. 19:18-20; Acts 23:1-5.

 
e. Marriages contracted contrary to biblical standards should also be visited. Lawful parental demands should be granted while people who have married another person’s spouse must prayerfully take steps towards restitution – Lk. 3:8; Gen. 20:14; Rom. 2:13-16.

Do you have any restitution to make? Pray to God for help and take the right steps. The Holy Spirit will help you.
