Judgement

                             Judgement Day

We all know rather its been years and years we are listening that the judgement day is near. There are four truths of the judgement day which is Enemy, Patient, God as the right to jugde and Judgement is coming.

1^st truth Enemy: Mathew Chp 13 verse 24 to 30: If we read this parable we get to know the first truth of the judgement day that the enemy is real. In verse 25 it says while the men slept his enemy came and this enemy is no one else but the Satan in verse 39 we get the answer. The enemy that sowed them is the devil, the harvest is the end of the world and the reapers are the angels.

2^nd truth is Patient: Chp3 verse 9, Our God is merciful, he waits until people come to Him with repentance. Jesus second inning is taking time because He is patient, He wants all of us to believe in Him and follow Him in our life so that the day He comes we all can go with Him to His Father’s kingdom.

3^rd truth is God is going to judge: Matthew Chp 7 verse 1: God will judge at the end and not us and so today no one as right to decide who will go to hail and who can go to heaven. If someone who don’t believe in Jesus we have no right to make judgement for him or her that they will go to hail instead we can just say to a non believer that by putting themselves away from Jesus and they might loose everlasting life.

4t truth Judgement is coming: Mathew 24-36, Mark 13 verse 32 to 37: When its going to come no one knows but yes the truth is judgement is near. The day will come when we will ask Jesus please do not come now because I am not ready but at that He will not listen He will just come to judge us. Bible says Jesus is coming we should ask question to ourselves are we ready to face the judgement.

What we need to do to be prepared

Watch and wake up: This is what Jesus said to his disciples at the Gethsemane but Jesus was sad to know that his disciples went off to sleep and today again Jesus is said because most of us today are also sleeping.

Watch and Pray: Mark 13 verse 33: Prayer is power. When we pray God listens, when we pray heaven door opens, when we pray wonder happens, keep praying as enemy is real and the enemy knows Jesus is going to come soon and so do the enemy will try best to divert our mind.

Watch and work: Mark 13 verse 34: When Jesus went into heaven the land afar from all of us which is right above in the sky, Jesus left is house which is the congregation of his people but he gave authority to govern it as per the laws, rules and directions prescribed  by Him and assigned every man his particular work for which he gave proper gifts and abilities and ordered the porter to watch porter is no one else but his minister, priest and preachers who is duty is to watch over themselves and the souls of man committed to themselves..

Prayer: Father I thank you for taking care of my needs and also taking care of all those people’s need who are redaing this message now. Father we thank you for being so kind and merciful towards us that you are prolonging the coming of your beloved son so that we still get time to change ourselves and prepare ourselves so that we can clear the judgement and can enter your kingdom. Amen

Enemies of Christian life

Most of us think that we have now made decision now I am ready to take baptism, I am ready to get converted and now I am ready to call myself as a Child of Christ and once we call ourselves as a Child of Christ we assume everything over most of us thing now we have achieved the degree and now it’s the end. But that assumption is wrong. Actually our real responsibility our real Christian life begans when we actually take baptism because that is the time when we are born in the new world. We are actually spiritual baby we need tenderness, love and care. We need to be fed, we need protection and this is the reason why most of us need help and fellowship.

When a new born baby starts growing it is the infant’s parents responsibility to take proper care of their child because the day that new born child becomes smart in brain his/ her first enemy is the TV. In the same way when we began our new life in Christ enemies are ready to attack us. If you made your decision and accepted Christ you will find first enemy at work, either we tempted to commit sin or you had a moment of depression or discouragement.

3 enemies of Christian life: The Devil, The World, and the Flesh

The Devil; We all know that the devil was beaten at the cross by Christ but he still has power to influence men for evil. The Bible calls the devil “ Wicked one” The Devil, A Murder, a lier and Father of Lies. Matthew 13-19, Luke 4-33 John 8:44. The moment we accept Christ Satan becomes angry and then he starts to temp you and try to lead you into sin. Satan will try to make us feel proud and confident of ourself and on other hand he will put hatred in our heart. He will temp us to say unkind and ungenerous words for others. Satan is called the God of this world. 2 Cor 4:4 , John 12:31

The World: The world has a tendency to lead us into sin, evil companions, pleasures, fashions, Aims and so on. Now in our new born world of Christ we experiences our worldly pleasure been lifted into an entirely new way. Many non Christian and Christian accused Christ life because they think there are rules and prohibition in it. But this is another lie of Satan because when we accept Christ we are so satisfied with the things of Christ that we do not get time for worldly things. There are certain element of our daily life which are not sinful like pleasure is lawful but is  unlawful if overuse. Making money is necessary for daily life but the money loving and then the deceitfulness of riches enter into and spoils our spiritual life.

The Flesh: The flesh is the evil tendency of our inward self, Even when we accept Christ sometimes our old sinful carvings will return and these evil temptations come from nowhere else but a traitor which is living within. Flesh and spirit are in conflict with each other Galatians 5:17.In this battle of self life and the Christ life . Lust is strong desire and not necessarily means sinful desire. Since there are certain desires of our physical nature hunger and thirst of food and water is a required desire but hunger and thirst of physical attraction is an sinful desire.

But people who are fighting with this enemies should not feel frightened. You are not alone  in the battle. Romans 8-13 Remember Jesus promised that he would never leave us or forsake us. Remember Jesus promised us that after he left the earth he would send another third person Trinity the Holy Spirit who is called comforter which means one who comes alongside to help that he may abide with us forever John 14-16.

1 Cor 6=19; The Bible says that the moment you accepted Christ as savior the Holy Spirit took up residence in your heart. Your body is now the temple of the Holy Ghost which is in you.

Prayer: Heavenly Father I thank you for fulfilling my needs and the needs of the people who are reading this message now. Father help us to understand the real meaning of baptism and then guide us to live our life according to your son Jesus and give us courage to face our enemies while entering and while we our in your world. Amen
