Bonded in the love of Jesus.
Colossians 3:14 "But above all these things put on love, which is the bond of perfection."
Colossians 3:24 "Knowing that from the Lord you will receive the reward of the inheritance; for you serve the Lord Christ".
The bond of perfection is love. Perfection is Christ Jesus and in order to be complete we should have a bond of love with Him. A bond can be defined in this context as being a uniting force to tie together. When we decide to fill ourselves with love, we have a uniting force with Jesus and become tied together with Jesus.
How great is the love of Jesus for us and therefore just how powerful is the bond that forms between Jesus and us? This is answered for us in Ephesians 3:17-20
"That Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith; that you being rooted and grounded in love, may be able to comprehend with all saints what is the width and length and depth and height - to know the love of Christ which passes knowledge; that you may be filled with all fullness of God.
Now to Him who is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that works in us."
The love of Jesus passes all knowledge. Just think how much knowledge is actually available in the world today. Have a look at the amount of knowledge available on the internet which has over 250 000 new web pages added to it daily. This is all just a pin prick compared to the size of the love that Jesus has for us and with which we are bonded to Him.
Think of Mount Everest, the highest place on earth, or the bottom of the deepest ocean. We can only wonder what lies down at the bottom of the deepest ocean as no one has ever been able to go there, but yet the heights of Mt Everest and the depths of the deepest ocean are minute in comparison with the bond that we have with Christ Jesus through His love for us.
Jesus is love and wants to become bonded with you in that love which is greater than anything that you could ever imagine. There is nothing that is bad enough or big enough or powerful enough to be able to prevent you from being bonded with Jesus through His Love. Nothing you have ever done before is stronger than His love for you. Nothing that you have ever even thought of is greater than His love for you. Jesus loves you and is waiting for you to become bonded to Him through his love. Become bonded to Him today in love .
Should we Tithe
A frequently asked question in many churches and a question that is frequently searched online "Tithing is an Old Testament instruction, why then should we tithe?"
Whilst I fully understand where this question comes from, in a day and time where it seems that the churches are trying to get as much of your money as possible and using as many means as possible to grab your hard earned money. However the Tithe is as important to you in the new teastament as it was in the old testament.
I have written a few articles that will assist you and help you through the tithing commandment.
1) Tithing in the New Testament - proof that the commandment applies till today.
2) The importance of the Tithe :- How you can use the Tithe to receive blessings in your life.
3) The freewill offering to the Lord :- How to turn your financial giving to prosperity.
4) Results of disobedience in giving : A touching prayer by a small boy.
Threesome saves marriages.
A good threesome may be the key to saving your marriage. Many marriages are failing and some people are desperate to be able to save their marriages and would consider anything possible that may contribute to saving the marriage. My solution to you is a threesome. Not just any threesome but a threesome with a permanent arrangement.
A threesome is usually an arrangement when a third person is brought into the marriage or relationship to make up for shortfalls within the marriage. This is usually approached with caution amongst most couples, due to the possibility of it causing further stress inside an already stressful situation. My words to you today are to throw caution to the wind and invite a threesome into your relationship to be able to save your marriage and get your marriage back into shape.
In heaven we have a perfect threesome , God - Jesus - Holy Spirit. Together they are the Holy trinity and they do all things in total unity and in one accord. They become one and act as one, even though they are three.
Our marriages should be no different and yet most marriages only consist of two, Husband and wife. There is something lacking according to the heavenly role model of the Holy Trinity.
Jesus should be the first person of the threesome and should be brought into every aspect of your marriage. Jesus will save your marriage, repair it, guide it, and bring it into full fruition. When Jesus is the first person, and you and your wife form the balance of the threesome, your marriage will strengthen and get better daily. Suddenly previous tensions that existed and caused stress between you and your partner, will fade away and a total bliss of unity will fall upon your mariage. The unity felt can only be attributed to the threesome in your marriage and without such a threesome it is impossible to achieve the same level of unity and peace and love.
If you are crying out that your marriage is falling apart and you are desperate to save your marriage, then suggest to your partner that a threeome could save your relationship and improve your future.
A threesome with any other than Jesus, will bring about further misery and cause untold chaos in the marriage, so do not even think about a threesome with anyone else but Jesus. If you would like to enjoy a threesome in your marriage with the perfect partner, then why don't you invite Him into your marriage now. If you have previously invited Him in but have been neglecting Him and ignoring Him recently, then ask Him to forgive you and your partner and refresh your marriage once again through Him.
Love Jesus
Today I have for, the greatest message that you can ever wish to hear. As I was waiting on the Lord this morning, listening to what he wished me to give out as a message, His words came to me clear and distinct.
"Tell them that I love them" - "Jesus loves you."
The love that Jesus has for you is more than you can ever comprehend. It is greater than any sin that you may have committed or even thought about. The love of Jesus is far greater than any love that you have ever experienced before.
So once again here is His words to me, "Tell them that I love them." Them is not someone else. This message is not meant for someone else. It is meant for you. Jesus loves you. If it were meant for someone else, you would not be reading this message.
If you have never before experienced the tremendous power of the love of Jesus in your life, then I urge that you open your heart to Him today, and let His love fill your life and change your life. Accept Jesus as your Lord and Saviour today, right now.
As you go through the weekend, remember often these words and remind yourself constantly of them, for they are the most important words ever. Just repeat over and over to yourself, "Jesus Loves Me."
More deadly sins
Today I have added a teaching on one of the deadly sins, the sin of pride. This joins the previous teachings that i have already done on the seven deadly sins, namely the sin of anger and the sin of envy.
As I am led to do so, I am adding more teachings into the pages area which can be navigated using the menu at the top of the page.
Matthew 23:12 "And whoever exalts himself will be abased, and he who humbles himself will be exalted."
Pride is the beginning of destruction. read the artcile so that you are aware of the devils biggest stronghold on christians.

Establish the Love of Jesus in your heart.
Jesus loves you but do you love Jesus? Have you come to the realisation in your life yet, that Jesus is everything to you, and that nothng else in life really matters? To say you love Jesus, is not just a matter of saying a couple of words, but it is the end result of a the process of a relationship that you build up.
Love is such an easy word to say today, and people tend to repeat the words "I love you", far too easily without taking the full effect of the words into consideration. Love is something that you choose to do for someone and is not an emotion, but rather something that you choose to do. When you say to someone that you love them, what you are really saying is that you choose to do anything for them, to benefit them, at your own cost.
When you say to Jesus that you love Him, you are in fact telling Him that you are willing to do anything that He asks you to do, and anything else that you feel would benefit Him, at your own cost. Do you love Jesus?
James 5:7-8 " Therefore be patient, brethren, until the coming of the Lord. See how the farmer waits for the precious fruit of the earth, waiting patiently for it until it receives the early and latter rain. You also be patient. Establish your hearts ,for the coming of the Lord is at hand."
When I looked at this scripture, even though I have read it a million times, it suddenly dawned upon me as to why some of our requests and prayers have not yet been met. First the scripture says that we have to be patient. Many have been patient a long time, and yet their prayers still go unanswered. Then it says "Establish your hearts". What exactly does the word establish mean? I decided to look it up and this is the explanation or definition of the word establish:-
1) a) To set up or found.
b) To bring about or generate.
2) a) To place or settle in a secure position, to install.
b) To make firm or secure.
3) To cause to be recognised and accepted.
4) To introduce and put into force.
5) To prove the validity or truth of.
6) To make a state institution of a church.
Have you established the love of Jesus in your heart. Be patient therefore, and establish your love for Jesus before the world by following these steps carefully.
1) Accept Jesus into your life and confess Him as Lord and Saviour before others.
2) Repent and be baptised in water for the remission of your sins.
3) Be baptised with fire in the Holy Spirit.
4) Read your bible to obtain strength and character in your life.
5) Obey his commandments (Deuteronomy 28)
Be patient and establish Jesus as Lord of your life and as the first love of your life.
Take it Bless it Give it
Jesus showed us a great principle when He fed the five thousand. It is the principle of "Take it, Bless It, Give it, and it shall come back to you good measure, pressed down and running over."
Matthew 16:9 " Do you not yet understand or remember the five loaves of the five thousand and how many baskets you took up". As I read these words this morning, I realised that Jesus had performed this miracle, not just as another miracle to show His glory and the Glory of the Father, but also as an example to us of how we should be living our lives.
In Matthew 14:15-21 Jesus was faced with a great multitude of some five thousand men and added to that, was the number of women and children that accompanied them. In those days the women and children were not counted. In all probability the total number of people was close to ten thousand. The crowd had been with him for most of the day and the place they were in was desolate. There were no 24 hour convenience stores nearby and Mc Donalds had not moved into the area yet.
The disciples sensed that a problem was brewing and approached Jesus, saying to Him that He should send the crowds away so that they may go to the nearest town and buy for themselves food. Jesus gave them the reply that they did not really want to hear, and told them in verse 16 "You give them something to eat". You can only imagine the look on their faces when they told Him that they only had 5 loaves and two fish. Well you know Jesus, we only have this little amount of food for us, and we have been working hard all day and we are very hungry. In fact don't you realise that this small amount of food will not get very far between us, you know just how hungry luke gets, he could eat all of this by himself.
Jesus said to them "Bring them here to me." That which you have give it to me. Jesus took that of which they had, and then He Blessed it, and commanded the diciples to give it out. Can you just imagine the disciples thoughts. They knew Jesus was great and they knew better than to protest against Him, but can you imagine the doubt that they had in their minds when they started to give out the small amount of food that they had. They were probably thinking, "Oh well looks like we are going to bed without food again tonight."
The disciples took up twelve baskets full of fragments that remained. What remained over was far more than what was initially given out. Give and you shall receive back, good measure, pressed down, shaken together and running over.
This was truly a great miracle, but apart from that it was a great principle that Jesus taught us. We are to take what we have and give it to Him. Jesus could not have worked this miracle without the initial five loaves and two fish. You have to give something, it does not matter how small and trivial it seems. Bless it. Give it to Jesus to be blessed and then take it and give it out. When you have followed the sequence of take, bless and Give, then it will come back to you and it will come back after not only satisfying ten thousand others, but will return to you multiplied.
What do I have to give? Give of your money, give of your time, give of your food, give of your prayers, but mostly give of your love, for when you spread your love out to those who have none, it will come back to multiplied one hundred fold .
Bitter envy.
James 3:14 “But if you have bitter envy and self seeking in your hearts, do not boast and lie against the truth.”
It is interesting that the writer of this cripture uses the words "Bitter Envy". Why does he use this interesting combination of words?
Envy will lead to destruction . Read all about the sin of envy here.
Aetheist Professor Floored.
A US Marine who had spent a great deal of time serving his country in both Afghanistan and Iraq, was home for a couple of months, furthering his studies.
One day, he was attending a lecture held by a professor who was well known as an aetheist. The professor walked into the class, took his place on the teaching platform, and with a loud voice, he looked upwards and shouted, "If there is a God up there, then show yourself and prove that you exist. I give you 15 minutes to come and knock me off this platform."
The entire class was in total silence. You could hear the sound of a pin falling. 5 Minutes passed. After ten minutes had passed, the professor again shouted "Come on God, I am waiting, you have 5 minutes left to prove that you exist".
A couple more minutes of total silence went past, and suddenly , just before the fifteen minutes was up, the marine silently stood to his feet, walked to the front of the class, and hit the professor. The professor was knocked straight off the platform and was lights out.
The class was still in stunned silence. A couple of minutes later the professor, coming to, shakily stood up and said to the marine, "Are you crazy, what did you do that for?"
The marine replied, " Oh I am sorry, but God was too busy looking after all the troops in Afghanistan and Iraq, who are busy fighting for our country, so He sent me instead!"
God uses ordinary people like you and me to do His work. The next time that you see someone who is in trouble, someone who has a need, remember that is people like you and me that God works through.
We are one body in Jesus.
Corinthians 12:1 Now concerning spiritual gifts, brethren,I do not want you to be ignorant.
2) You know that you were gentiles, carried away to these dumb idols, however you were led.
3) Therefore I make known to you that no one speaking by the Spirit of God calls Jesus accursed, and no one can say that Jesus is lord, except by the Holy Spirit.
4) Now there are diversities of gifts, but the same Spirit.
5) There are differences of ministries, but the same Lord.
6) And there are diversities of activities, but it is the same God who works all in all.
7) But the manifestation of the Spirit is given to each one for the profit of all.
for to one is given the word of wisdom through the Spirit, to another the word of knowledge through the same Spirit,
9) to another faith by the same Spirit, to another gifts of healings by the same Spirit,
10) to another the working of miracles, to another prophecy, to another discerning of Spirits, to another different kinds of tongues, to another the interpretation of tongues.
11) But one and the same Spirit works all these things, distributing to each one individually as He wills.
12) For as the body is one and has many members, but all the members of that one body, being many, are one body, so also is Christ .
13) For by one Spirit we were all baptized into one body - whether Jews or Greeks, whether slaves or free - and have all been made to drink into one Spirit.
14) For in fact the body is not one member, but many.
15) If the foot should say, "Because I am not a hand, I am not of the body," is it therefore not of the body?
16) And if the ear should say, "Because I am not an eye, I am not of the body," is it therefore not of the body?
17) If the whole body were an eye, where would be the hearing, where would be the smelling?
18) But now God has set the members, each one of them, in the body just as He pleased.
19) And if they were all one member, where would the body be?
20) But now indeed there are many members, yet one body.
21) And the eye cannot say to the hand, " I have no need of you"; nor again the head to the feet, "I have no need of you."
22) No much rather, those members of the body which seem to be weaker are necessary.
23) And those members of the body which we think to be less honourable, on those we bestow greater honour; and our unpresentable parts have greater modesty,
24) but our presentable parts have no need. But God composed the body, having given greater honour to that part that lacks it,
25) That there should be no schism in the body, but that the members should have the same care for for one another.
26) And if one member suffers, all the members suffer with it, or if one member is honoured, all the members rejoice with it.
27) Now you are the body of Christ, and members individually.
28) And God has appointed these in the church: First apostles, second prophets, third teachers, after that miracles, then gifts of healings, helps administrations, varieties of tongues.
29) Are all apostles? Are all prophets? Are all teachers? Are all workers of miracles?
30) Do all have gifts of healings? Do all speak with tongues? Do all interpret?
31) But earnestly desire the best gifts. And yet I show you a more excellent way.
