EVEN IN A DEVIL MESSED UP WORLD, CHRIST JESUS EXPECTS US TO BE CLEAN! (ROM.2:1)
FROM MANGER TO MAJESTY(PART TWO)
Welcome back and happy New Year once again!
In the part one of this message, I told us that ,of a truth, Christ-mass(service) isn't really a christian affair, as it was a human imposed festival by the Roman Catholic church, just as some unbiblical doctrines of the said church till date. They even now admit no one knows the Day of His (Christ Jesus')Birth.
As I write this,the Russian Orthodox church and the countries under Russia,are in high gear preparations for Christmas on January 7th. You see the irony of it.
And I equally told us that CHRISTMAS HAS COME TO STAY. ARGUING THE RIGHT OR WRONG OF IT,IS OUT OF THE QUESTION.
As believers,we are to key in to the Reason for the season,(Christ Jesus) and concentrate on being *CHRISTLIKE*,not the revellings and drinking and drunk driving,as well as sex orgies...all types of evil that normally characterize Xmas celebrations.
Thus, today, we are still concentrating on the humility of Christ Jesus' Birth, in sharp contrast to Man's pride, through the significance of the shepherds in the Christmas story, illustrating that God's message and love extends to all, regardless of their societal status.
Let's go
God's Selection: God isn't seeking for the self qualified, but He seeks for the unqualified in order to qualify them.God loathes and abhors negative Pride.
THE SHEPHERDS, often viewed as outcasts and considered lowly in society, were the first to receive the news of Christ Jesus' Birth, highlighting that God values humility over social status. This He demonstrated by the unknown family He chose to come through into the world.
Divine Surprises: The Christmas story is filled with unexpected elements, such as a miraculous Birth announced to the marginalized rather than the elite, emphasizing God's surprising plan for REDEMPTION. Most of those who we think or expect to be sitting in the front rows of heaven, would in a great surprise, be found in very centre of hell. GOD HAS BEEN SERIOUSLY WARNING THOSE PASTORS,WE CALL GOD'S GENERALS, BECAUSE MANY OF THEM HAVE TAKEN THE PLACE OF GOD,WHO DOESN'T SHARE HIS GLORY WITH ANYONE!
Christ Jesus is for Everyone: Christ Jesus came for all people, rich or poor, famous or anonymous, signifying that every individual matters to God. If Salvation was to be bought with Money, I bet 90% of us won't have access to it, because the wealthy would buy it all,that none will be left for the less privileged. And it's exactly why many of the affluent find it difficult to get saved.
Call to Action: The shepherds' immediate response to the angel’s invitation serves as a model for believers to act upon God's call, rather than making excuses. Some of are famous for saying Christianity is boring, so allow me to enjoy life a little bit more, before I submit to God. In the process of enjoying a little bit more,they die in their sins... the devil will always ensure that.
Worship as Response: True worship is presented as a heartfelt response to encountering Christ Jesus ,transforming lives and prompting individuals to share the good news. The shepherds went immediately to the Born Saviour and worshipped Him. From thence,they went sharing the good news of the Saviour's Birth.
God's Perspective:
The message is lucidly clear that,God doesn't discriminate. Rather,HE sees potential in everyone, (Afterall, God created us), challenging societal norms that often dictate worth based on achievement and status.
Invitation to a positive life saving Relationship:
God invites individuals into a personal relationship, offering forgiveness and hope, emphasizing that everyone is welcome regardless of their past.
Encouragement for the Marginalized:
The message sent by Christ Jesus' humble beginning reassures those who feel overlooked or unworthy that they are seen and loved by God, which is central to the Christmas message.
Active Participation:
We are all encouraged to actively engage in God’s kingdom work, highlighting the importance of recognizing one's value and purpose in God’s eyes. As a believer, you have become a minister of the Gospel,an evangelist of the good news... what employment can be more gratifying than serving the Lord with your God given abilities?
Hope in Everyday Life:
I want us to understand that , amidst pain and struggles, we can find healing and purpose through the love of Christ Jesus which is central to the Christmas message;
Likewise the Spirit also helpeth our infirmities: for we know not what we should pray for as we ought: but the Spirit itself maketh intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered. (Rom 8: 26)
And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose. (Rom 8: 28)
Amen !
