Mockery of the Crucifixion Matthew 27: Blatant Mockery of the Crucifixion Will not be unpunished Matthew 27:29-31And mocked him, saying, Hail, King of the Jews! Jesus' death on the Cross was never meant to be mocked by anyone. This is sickening, outrageous, despicable, passed being ungodly, it is devilish! To Christians, are you satisfied how your attitude has given the enemy carte blanche to mock the crucifixion? Hear what Mordecai said to Esther. Esther 4:13-14 "Then Mordecai commanded to answer Esther, Think not with thyself that thou shalt escape in the king's house, more than all the Jews. For if thou altogether hold thy peace at this time, then shall their enlargement and deliverance arise to the Jews from another place; but thou and thy father's house shall be destroyed: and who knows whether thou art come to the kingdom for such a time as this?" Christians, think about these words!Faith Restoration Ministries International

God will not be MockedII Chronicles 36:11-16Galatians 6:7-8 There are people who believe that they can do whatever they want, whenever, they want, and to whomever they choose to abuse. Even God, they will take His word and throw it in the trash, and think nothing of it. Yet He has a day of judgment for the ungodly, because God will not be mocked.Everything is only for a season. God has patience, but when He moves, He leaves no stone unturned. If you have been mocking God, in whatever form or fashion, take heed because a day of reckoning is coming.Faith Restoration Ministries International

Do Not Forget the All-Mighty GodIf we forget God, Satan will rule Psalm 9:17The wicked shall be turned into hell, and all the nations that forget God.II Chronicles 14And Asa cried unto the LORD his God, and said, LORD, it is nothing with thee to help, whether with many, or with them that have no power: help us, O LORD our God; for we rest on thee, and in thy name we go against this multitude. O LORD, thou art our God; let not man prevail against thee. If God is no longer relevant in the lives of people, Satan will rule no matter who or what the situation may be. The Scripture clearly states that those who forget God will be turned to destruction. Satan's aim is to steal, kill, and to destroy, and he does not care how he does it or to whom: whether it is a nation or a church. It is time for the churches to respond to the call in Joel 2:12-13, Therefore also now, saith the LORD, turn ye even to me with all your heart, and with fasting, and with weeping, and with mourning: And rend your heart, and not your garments, and turn unto the LORD your God: for he is gracious and merciful, slow to anger, and of great kindness, and repenteth him of the evil. How long will the church sit at ease while the enemy is deceiving the vulnerable and those seeking assurance in finding peace with God? God is merciful, and He will forgive. The church has been asleep while the enemy has brought destruction and ruin. Who is on the Lord's side?

Philippians 3:Enemies of the Cross of Jesus Christ(For many walk, of whom I have told you often, and now tell you even weeping, [that they are] the enemies of the cross of Christ: The Bible teaches all believers how we are to live in this world. It also gives us precepts to follow whereby we can live honestly, and uprightly as lights in this dark world of sin. Yet, there are preachers who deceive people who are living sinful lives by endorsing standards which are contrary to the word of God. For those preachers who refuse to face the reality concerning the truths of God's word, they will surely lead others along with themselves into destruction. The Scriptures are clear concerning how true believers and followers of Christ ought to live (Romans 12:1-2; Luke 9:23; I Corinthians 5:9-13).These are only some of the texts which give us guidelines concerning what the word says. The word of God has not, and will never change despite how defiant people behave. God will forever stand by His word which is and will always be true. Faith Restoration Ministries International

Why Should I Forgive?Matthew 6:9-15, Genesis 13:1-10 There are people who will hold out on others because of a hurt or an offense which they suffered from another person. Admittedly, when we have been hurt by someone it is not easy to forgive and move on. Some things are really painful and difficult to overcome. Nevertheless, the word of God teaches that we must forgive if we want to be forgiven by God (Matthew 6:14-15). If you are facing a situation where you are finding it almost impossible to forgive another person, remember forgiveness is not for the offender, but for you who was offended. You are the only one feeling the emotional pain of unforgiveness.Finally, the spirit of unforgiveness comes from the devil, he is the one who uses it as one of his deadly weapons.

Give the hurt to the Lord and He will heal you.Faith Restoration Ministries International

There are Consequences for any type of Abuse! We will find people in every organization, group, family, whatever the setting who hold power. Some receive a position because of association, family, trade or by whatever means. The problem with some of those who hold power is that they abuse their authority even though they have power. An individual may have power, but limited or no authority to exceed their power. Still, some would even dare to do so. They are in the church community, principalities, rulers, in high places, in all areas of government, family, and the work place. The problem at times is that those who do not understand the use of power, and even if they do, will blatantly abuse their boundaries. Let us bring to mind a few who are listed in the Bible:*Nebuchadnezzar, Daniel 3-4. This man abused his power and in the end, he paid for it by humility and his acknowledgement of the only One and True God Who has ALL power.*Jehoram who killed his brothers and paid the price for his murderous behaviour, II Chronicles 21:1-4 - God saw his evil deeds.*Herod thought he could kill all the babies in his attempt to kill Jesus. Even as an adult, Herod planned to kill Jesus (Luke 13). Herod really thought himself to be mighty and powerful. While he spoke, God's vengeance was upon him (Acts 12:21-23).So, you have power to act in any way you choose, and to abuse anyone whom you desire to harm. God is watching, and He has a day to respond to all those who abuse their power and authority. Which one of these persons do you represent?Psalm 50:21, "These [things] hast thou done, and I kept silence; thou thought that I was altogether [such an one] as thyself: [but] I will reprove thee, and set [them] in order before thine eyes. God's silence is not an indication of overlooking evil! ⁠Faith Restoration Ministries International⁠

We are Being Kept by God Jude 1:24-25, Now unto him that is able to keep you from falling, and to present [you] faultless before the presence of his glory with exceeding joy, To the only wise God our Saviour, be glory and majesty, dominion and power, both now and ever. Amen.Psalm 121:5, “The LORD is thy keeper: the LORD is thy shade upon thy right hand.” Jude speaks to the believer reminding him that God is his keeper, and He is the only One Who can keep us from falling. God does this in multiple ways, even when we think that life has disappointed us, it may well be God’s mighty hand protecting us from something which might be harmful whether in the long or short run. How do we arrive at such a place whereby God will be pleased with our efforts? What do we need to do? Surely, God requires some effort from us with all the inherent abilities which He has given to mankind. No one can say that He does not know how to at least begin to understand God’s desire because He has made this plain through the Commandments given us (Exodus 20). This includes multiple precepts and directives which are valuable for life and godliness (I Peter 1:3). While we try to keep ourselves practically, we need God’s help through the Holy Spirit to live a life which is pleasing unto Him through sanctification (Romans 12:1-2).

The Good Shepherd Do you trust your leader to teach you the word of God? There are many persons with titles who are posing as men and women of God, but are they sincere, truthful or just imposters. John 10:12-13But he that is an hireling, and not the shepherd, whose own the sheep are not, sees the wolf coming, and leaves the sheep, and flees: and the wolf catches them, and scatters the sheep.The hireling flees, because he is an hireling, and cares not for the sheep. These verses should answer the question concerning your leader. Faith Restoration Ministries International

PERSECUTED BUT NOT FORSAKEN Persecuted BUT not Forsaken II Corinthians 4:8-11 This passage serves to remind believers that even though we will be or are persecuted, we are not forsaken. There are many believers in Christ who are being persecuted in multiple ways, emotionally, physically, spiritually, and so much more. Nevertheless, we are reminded that even as they hated Jesus, we too will be hated and mistreated. Let us all be encouraged to persevere and not lose heart. We still have a better home awaiting us even though our outer man perishes.Brothers and sisters, let us be strong in the Lord. Know that He is with us in every situation, although it may not appear to be so. Jesus is with us and will never leave us alone (Joshua 1:9). Persecuted, but not forsaken!Faith Restoration Ministries International

That I May Know Jesus Philippians 3:10 That I may know him, and the power of his resurrection, and the fellowship of his sufferings, being made conformable unto his death; Knowing Jesus should be uppermost in the mind of every believer. There is a difference in knowing Him, and knowing about Him. To know Him means going the way of the Cross. It begins with self-denial, presenting our bodies as living sacrifices before Him and allowing the Holy Spirit to renew our minds. God wants the best out of us, and we must be willing to surrender to His will. Do you want to know Jesus? Give your heart to Him today and He will come in and abide with you as you surrender to His will. Faith Restoration Ministries International

God's Plan for Your Life Satan's plan is to destroy anyone he chooses who will allow him into his or her life. What he does is to destroy the individual and moves on to the next prey, I Peter 5:8. God loves us regardless of our circumstances. For this reason, He sent His Son Jesus Christ into the world to die so that everyone has the opportunity to accept His love or deny it, John 3:16-17. The reason why many people fail is due to the fact that they did not allow God to direct their path, Proverbs 3:5-6. If we ignore God's will, we will most certainly end up failures with disappointments.Trust God to plan and direct your life. He will never fail you. He knows how to turn bitterness to sweetness, and what you may have thought was a disappointment to be an appointment for your life which leads to success. Trust God to plan your life. He is the Source of Knowledge, Wisdom and Success.

A System of Hate and Destruction Job 41; Isaiah 27 The Bible speaks of an unknown creature in Job 41 called the leviathan. Its structure is made up of scales which are tightly compacted so that nothing can penetrate them. In comparison, this vicious world organized system is so well-planned that only God can destroy it [Isaiah 27]. This group of elites which spreads itself in all areas of life; the church, world governments, regions, nations, and whatever and wherever it finds access, will move in and take over. It is a well-organized destructive and hateful system. It is a vicious and voracious spirit which controls the lives of those who yield themselves to its allurements: power, wealth, greed, pride, godlessness, hate and all manner of evils. The way of life for its members is to ignore God’s Commandments, and to treat moral laws are as dust.... Would you like to join us for Good Friday Service at 10:00 am EST, on Friday, April 7?

THE DESTRUCTIVE SPIRIT OF PRIDE Proverbs 16:18 “Pride goes before destruction, and an haughty spirit before a fall.” Obadiah 1 Pride is one of the most despicable and destructive sins mankind has ever known. It is displayed in presumptuousness, with lack of concern regarding how it affects others or the outcome which it brings. Pride is extremely costly to the one who has been enchanted by its spells and who has been captured by its powers. There is no question, pride will eventually lead to devastating results because it gives a false sense of security of being invincible. The individual displays intense resentment, unwarranted anger, and bitterness towards the object of his hate and animosities. Pride is extremely dangerous and destructive, with deadly outcomes because it has no power to deliver even its own servants. One of the weaknesses of pride is that the individual is eaten up with anger and bitterness so that he cannot forgive, or help the weaknesses which pride brings with it. Moreover, pride is a spirit which defiles the individual, and those who are involved with that person (Hebrews 12:15). For the entire Script click ARTICLES

MISTAKES PARENTS MAKE A child's behaviour is the reflection of the structure of the family life, the culture, and principles, and the moral and Christian values which they use to govern their attitudes and behaviours. Children learn from the home environment what they see in their parents. Admittedly, they also learn from their surroundings which are part of their natural upbringing. Those learning experiences are significant to their moral and spiritual development. The atmospheric backgrounds and life exposures in which children are allowed to be active and creative will be the guiding principles as they develop and grow. This will be their chart for making all kinds of life-fulfilment and life-changing decisions. Therefore, if the learning experiences are negative and unproductive, the result will be obstruction or destruction to their progress and success in life. They will certainly make mistakes and behave unseemly, causing pain and disappointment to themselves and problem to those around them.  Other Articles If you need prayer or have questions about Shekinah Theological College call 678 964-4096 and leave a message.

THE COST OF TRUE DISCIPLESHIP Luke 9:23 And he said to (them) all, If any (man) will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross daily, and follow me. Mark 10:17-22 Following the Lord Jesus Christ means self-denial. We cannot love the world, riches and other situations and faithfully serve the Lord. There has to be a change from the things of the world, and the sins which easily beset our lives. Jesus told the disciples and the rich young ruler, that they must make a conscious decision concerning their desire to follow Him. The same instruction rings true today that if we are to be true believers in Christ.  We cannot love the world and the Lord Jesus at the same time. There has to be a separation which indicates self-denial and bearing the cross even as Christ did for us. Another very important point is that we must surrender our wills to God. It means turning our lives over  to Him as living sacrifice, which is what He desires of us (Romans 12:1-2). We will not make it any other way, but the way of the cross. If we are going to follow the Lord, we must put Him first, otherwise our efforts will be in vain. We have to give up the old lifestyle to please the Lord. God requires obedience, faithfulness, honesty, reliability, sincerity and so many other qualities which are produced through the working of the Holy Spirit and grace.

GOD BRIDGED THE GAP THROUGH JESUS CHRIST The story in this text reminds us that God is constantly watching over us, and He pays attention to what we do, and the motive behind our actions. Although Cornelius was a Gentile, he helped those who were not of his ethnicity. There is but one God [Ephesians 4], Who made one people - the human race, but with different ethnic and cultural backgrounds. Therefore, we have the responsibility to help each other, and to avoid the destructive spirits of hatred, malice, and prejudice. One man's actions brought salvation to his entire people. What are you doing to help mankind and those around you? Begin today to show forth the goodness and love of God without checking colour or affiliations. God bless you.

GOD WILL NOT SHARE HIS PRESENCE WITH BAAL Isaiah 42:8 I [am] the LORD: that [is] my name: and my glory will I not give to another, neither my praise to graven images. We must remove the contrary things which clutter our lives and prevent the presence of God. God is holy, and His desire is that His people live lives which are acceptable unto Him according to His word. God will never share His presence with the idols of Baal, whatever those might be. If our lives are filled with sinfulness, and all kinds of contrary thoughts and behaviour the presence of God will most certainly depart as He did to King Saul. To maintain a life which is pleasing to God means we must live holy unto Him. Whatever things which are spiritually offensive to our God will block His presence from us. This is time for repentance and to make the departure from habitual sins and turn to a life of sanctification and holiness. Immediately after the people repented and chose God to be their God, the rain fell, and the drought ended so that seeds could grow again. God will not share His glory with Baal [Isaiah 42:8].

GOD'S PLAN AND PURPOSE FOR MARRIAGE God's plan for marriage, which is the foundation for family life is the most unique relationship upon earth because the two persons become one not physically, but in essence.  " Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave unto his wife: and they shall be one flesh" (Genesis 2:24). This is God's interpretation, plan and purpose for marriage.

TO BE FILLED WITH THE SPIRIT What does it mean to be filled with the Spirit? How do we know that we are filled with the Spirit? Is it speaking in tongues? Is it being able to pray loudly, more, or longer? Is in our giving, church attendance, doing good works? To be filled with the Spirit, is evident in the kind of life which we live. In Acts 2:4, the people spoke as the Spirit directed them. Everyone, whatever the ministry, must be controlled by the Spirit; otherwise, that person is working in the flesh. Being filled with the Spirit is a continuous daily experience through submission, meditation, worship, and praises to our King. These include fasting, praying, reading, studying, and application of the Word of God to our lives to remain strong. Faith Restoration Ministries International
