Faith In The Son Of God by yommyuk: 11:44am On Dec 26, 2010
Those who believe that Jesus is the Christ(Messiah) and the Son of God have been born spiritually as CHILDREN OF GOD.

John 20:31
31 but these are written that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that believing you may have life in His name.

What life are we talking about?

John 1;4
In Him(Jesus) was life, and the life was the light of men.

Such people are empowered by the Spirit of God to love him(Jesus Christ) and other Christians, and by their faith to obey God and overcome the evil temptations of the world. I will say a big Halleluyah and Amen to that! cheesy It is thru faith that we love God and live in obedience to him.

The Word of God has confirmed Jesus Christ truth identity as the Christ, the Son of God by his baptism and death.  It is Jesus of Nazareth , BORN OF THE VIRGIN MARY BY THE POWER OF THE HOLY GHOST is the one we should invest our HOPE in. There is no other but him.

1 John 5:10 tells us that " All who believe in the Son of God know IN THEIR HEARTS that this TESTIMONY IS TRUE. But those who don't or have refused to believe are ACTUALLY CALLING GOD A LIAR thru their UNBELIEF undecided

CONCLUSION

The evil one will ask "who is your withness? angry

Brethen, our answer shoud be this: We have three witnesses; The father, The Word and the Holy Spirit.

1 John 2:20
20 But you have an anointing from the Holy One, and you know all things.

God bless wink

Sonship with God is one great revelation so many have not come to.

how can God have a son when He has no consort (a mate)?

Didnt Jesus say he was a servant?

Didnt Jesus say he has a Lord Who is One God to all?

how can God have a son when He has no consort (a mate)?

Mark 1:1-3
This is the Good News about Jesus the MESSIAH, the Son of God. It began just as the prophet Isaiah had written:
"Look, I am sending my messenger ahead of you, and he will prepare your way. He is a voice shouting in the wilderness.
PREPARE THE WAY FOR THE LORD'S COMING! Clear the road for him!

John the baptist role as the prophetic messenger revealed that JESUS is the promised Lord - CHRIST, the son of God.

Luke 1:34-35
Mary asked the angel, "but how can this happen? I am a virgin."
The angel replied,"The Holy Spirit will come upon you, and the power of the Most High will overshadow you. So the baby will be born holy and he will be called the SON OF GOD.

Luke 1:37
For nothing is impossible with God

It may be impossible for ALLAH, But not the GOD we serve. cool

Didnt Jesus say he was a servant?
To an extent true.

Philippian 2:6-11
who, being in the form of God, did not consider it robbery to be equal with God, 7 but made Himself of no reputation, taking the form of a bondservant, and coming in the likeness of men. 8 And being found in appearance as a man, He humbled Himself and became obedient to the point of death, even the death of the cross. 9 Therefore God also has highly exalted Him and given Him the name which is above every name, 10 that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of those in heaven, and of those on earth, and of those under the earth, 11 and that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.

Vs 7 Literallly " He emptied himself of his divine privileges" to take the position of a slave. Only God could do that. It is like a King becoming a slave. It is called total humility. That is why the verse prior to this(5) said we should have the same atitude of CHRIST. Humilty is having inner strength to do what the world considers foolsih.

Didnt Jesus say he has a Lord Who is One God to all?
Half true to the natural man.

John 5:19
So Jesus explained,"I tell you the truth, the son can do nothing by himself. He does only what he sees the Father doing. WHATEVER the Father does, the Son also does.

John 5:26

The Father has life in himself, and he has granted that SAME LIFE GIVING POWER to this SON.

CONCLUSION

Alhaji, Mallam or whatever your name is, read the word of God below and get it right into your inner man.

JOHN 5:25

And I ASSURE YOU that the time is coming. Indeed It's here now,when the dead will hear my voice- the voice of the Son of God. And those who listen will live

Those are the word of the "SON OF GOD". If you listen you live, if not the opposite is coming to get ya. Not in the literal sense meaning physical death. NAY! The death that comes to those who refuse to listen to the VOICE OF THE MOST HIGH is even worst. It is called "SPIRITUAL DEATH"

Never too late bro cool
