The Power of the Atonement: Understanding Christ’s Sacrifice

About various aspects of our faith—our gathering, leadership, the role of Jesus in our lives, and the essence of Christian life. Let’s dig in.

The Importance of Gathering

  • A Miracle in Europe:
    Look around you. To have you all here on a Thursday is nothing short of a miracle. As the Good Book says in Hebrews 10:25, “not giving up meeting together, as some are in the habit of doing, but encouraging one another.”

Leadership & Planning in Ministry

  • Future Plans:
    I’m excited to share that we’ve got leadership meetings and church plans for the UK coming up. As Proverbs 16:3 encourages us, “Commit to the LORD whatever you do, and he will establish your plans.”

The Importance of Preaching

  • Necessity of Certain Messages:
    There are messages that I, too, struggle with, but I must preach them. Remember 2 Timothy 4:2? “Preach the word; be prepared in season and out of season.”

Revelation of Jesus Christ

  • The Question of Identity:
    Remember that moment when Jesus asked Peter, “Who do you say I am?” Peter had a revelation. He said, “You are the Messiah, the Son of the living God” (Matthew 16:15-16). What is your revelation of Jesus?

Salvation and Belief

  • The Power of Confession: Romans 10:9 lays it down clearly. “If you declare with your mouth, ‘Jesus is Lord,’ and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.”

Eternal Life and Righteousness

  • Nature of God: We’re not just saved, we partake in the very nature of God, His righteousness and eternal life. Romans 3:22 states, “This righteousness is given through faith in Jesus Christ to all who believe.”

Wholeness in Jesus

  • Being Whole: When you come to Jesus, you don’t just get piecemeal benefits. Colossians 2:10 says, “and in Christ you have been brought to fullness.”

The Atonement

  • Meaning of “Sozo”: The Greek word “Sozo” encapsulates salvation, healing, and wholeness. 1 Peter 2:24 says, “He himself bore our sins in his body on the cross, so that we might die to sins and live for righteousness.”

Conclusion

We’ve covered a lot of ground, but the essence remains—Jesus is the focal point of our lives, and we have responsibilities as believers. Take these truths and let them soak into your life. God bless you all.

Financial Rescue – Learning to Prosper from God’s Word

  • The teaching on financial rescue and prosperity, drawing from Biblical principles to provide practical advice.

The Pitfalls to Avoid

  • The love of money, not money itself, is the root of evil (1 Timothy 6:10)
  • Most problems can be traced to money issues. Financial abundance can help solve many problems
  • Borrowing is risky, goes against God’s principles, and often leads to loss (Deuteronomy 15:6)
  • Dishonesty also leads to financial troubles, integrity is key (Deuteronomy 28:1-2)

Cultivating Abundance

  • Prosperity is hidden in our gifts and talents, cultivate your gifts (Matthew 25:14-30)
  • Sowing seeds in God’s work brings spiritual and financial harvest (2 Corinthians 9:10)
  • We must adopt the mindset of a giver not just a receiver (2 Corinthians 9:6-8)

Seizing Breakthrough

  • Moments and opportunities contain wealth, be spiritually attentive (Ecclesiastes 9:11)
  • God wants to rescue and bless us financially as we follow His principles (Philippians 4:19)

Conclusion

  • God has amazing financial rescue for those who apply His wisdom
  • We must remove ungodly financial habits and embrace Kingdom principles
  • Lean on Christ, not worldly systems, and abundance will come
  • God delights in rescuing us from lack into overflow
  • Mortgage is against God’s principles.

Bible verses regarding trust and offering

Here are some Bible verses regarding trust and offering:

  1. Proverbs 3:5-6 – “Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make straight your paths.”
  2. Malachi 3:10 – “Bring the full tithe into the storehouse, that there may be food in my house. And thereby put me to the test, says the Lord of hosts, if I will not open the windows of heaven for you and pour down for you a blessing until there is no more need.”
  3. 2 Corinthians 9:7 – “Each one must give as he has decided in his heart, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver.”
  4. Psalm 20:7 – “Some trust in chariots and some in horses, but we trust in the name of the Lord our God.”
  5. Proverbs 11:24-25 – “One gives freely, yet grows all the richer; another withholds what he should give, and only suffers want. Whoever brings blessing will be enriched, and one who waters will himself be watered.”
  6. Matthew 6:21 – “For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.”
  7. Philippians 4:19 – “And my God will supply every need of yours according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus.”

Forgiven much love him much

Ephesians 4:32
ஒருவருக்கொருவர் தயவாயும் மனஉருக்கமாயும் இருந்து, கிறிஸ்துவுக்குள் தேவன் உங்களுக்கு மன்னித்ததுபோல, நீங்களும் ஒருவருக்காருவர் மன்னியுங்கள்.

And be ye kind one to another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God for Christ's sake hath forgiven you.


1 John 4:19
அவர் முந்தி நம்மிடத்தில் அன்புகூர்ந்தபடியால் நாமும் அவரிடத்தில் அன்புகூருகிறோம்.

We love him, because he first loved us.


Luke 7:41
அப்பொழுது அவர்: ஒருவனிடத்தில் இரண்டுபேர் கடன்பட்டிருந்தார்கள்; ஒருவன் ஐந்நூறு வெள்ளிக்காசும், மற்றவன் ஐம்பது வெள்ளிக்காசும் கொடுக்கவேண்டியதாயிருந்தது.

There was a certain creditor which had two debtors: the one owed five hundred pence, and the other fifty.


Luke 7:42
கொடுக்க அவர்களுக்கு நிர்வாகமில்லாதபோது, இருவருக்கும் கடனை மன்னித்துவிட்டான். இப்படியிருக்க, அவர்களில் எவன் அவனிடத்தில் அதிக அன்பாயிருப்பான்? அதைச் சொல் என்றார்.

And when they had nothing to pay, he frankly forgave them both. Tell me therefore, which of them will love him most?


Luke 7:43
சீமோன் பிரதியுத்தரமாக: எவனுக்கு அதிகமாய் மன்னித்துவிட்டானோ அவனே அதிக அன்பாயிருப்பான் என்று நினைக்கிறேன் என்றான்; அதற்கு அவர்: சரியாய் நிதானித்தாய் என்று சொல்லி,

Simon answered and said, I suppose that he, to whom he forgave most. And he said unto him, Thou hast rightly judged.


Luke 7:47
ஆதலால் நான் உனக்குச் சொல்லுகிறேன்: இவள் செய்த அநேக பாவங்கள் மன்னிக்கப்பட்டது; இவள் மிகவும் அன்புகூர்ந்தாளே. எவனுக்குக் கொஞ்சம் மன்னிக்கப்படுகிறதோ, அவன் கொஞ்சமாய் அன்பு கூருவான் என்று சொல்லி;

Wherefore I say unto thee, Her sins, which are many, are forgiven; for she loved much: but to whom little is forgiven, the same loveth little.
