TOPIC: The Most Precious Commodities I Got That Changed My Life Forever

"For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life." (John 3:16)


*MESSAGE*

The best commodities you can get on earth must be eternal in nature. In other words, such gifts must have eternity-significance and relevance. They are not subject to degradation by the corruption of this temporary imperfect world

The best gifts I received from the LORD were Eternal Life, served on the platform of His pure Love through faith in Christ Jesus, activated by the Holy Ghost. They opened the doors to several other divine gifts, including His ever soothing Presence that refreshes me and makes me immune from the pangs of this worn-out earth, as well as other spiritual gifts to be empowered for the work of ministry and promote the beautiful agenda of His glorious kingdom.

Let's briefly explore the significance of these gifts and commodities. The scripture says - ‬

"For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life." (John 3:16)

First, God had offered to an undeserving world the gift of His pure Love.

Take note of the fact that sin redesigned the destiny of the earth and its inhabitants to go the way of doom and perishing.

There are two folds of perishing:

1. Perishing On Earth

Characterized by continuous degradation of the quality of life, and being weak to become all that one has been destined to be.

Look around your society, there are many folks perishing under the burdens of sin, satan, self, sickness, poverty, death, hell, and other negative stuff.

2. Perishing Into Eternity

Once a person dies without doing the needful (making things right with God and accepting His offer of love), such will use his or her own legs to embrace the paths of being perished in hell and the lake of fire burning with brimstone (Revelation 19:20; 20:10, 15).

God's Gift Of Eternal Life

The antidote of having to subject oneself to the ugly paths of perishing on earth and into eternity is being injected with eternal life, through faith in Christ Jesus.

Eternal life is the very life of God, and its composition is eternally potent to make you live above self, sin, satan, sickness, poverty, hell, curses, etc.

What better gift is there to these?

If you want to submit to Jesus, simply say this prayer:

"LORD JESUS, I believe in my heart that You died for me and You raised on the third day for my justification. And so I confess with my mouth that You are my Lord and Savior. From today, I belong to the family of God. Thank You for giving me eternal life."

[12] But as many as received Him, to them He gave the right to become children of God, to those who believe in His name:

I'm tired of all these religious sermons every Sundays and Fridays. Infact we have enough churches and mosques all over the place that will last us a lifetime.what I need to see in Christians,Muslims and religious goers is love and humanity. Enough of the sermons.we don hear,e don taya us sef.let us see Jesus in your actions not just what you say.talk is cheap,anybody can deliver a beautiful sermon. All it takes is to work on your dicton, read,speak eloquently, buy a neat 3 piece suit,microphone, and have a good hair cut alongside with nice shoes and give them the wow factor, lobatan.go to work places or homes you will see people putting church/mosque stickers in front of their door houses,cars offices etc yet na them go dey beat their wife, do 2 some for hotel,come dey carry bible disturb our peace. Who you dey deceive

The only time I will take religious people (Christians,Muslims and traditionalists ) seriously is when they stop all this eye service, double standards, coded runs,stealing by manipulation etc.the pulpit all over religious centres has been basterdized by liars and hypocrites.preaching 1 thing on Sunday amd doing another thing Monday to Saturday. If you are not even careful sef some pastors or alfas will send you to hell faster than devil at least thank God they've stopped the nonsense of God said I should tell you she is your wife or he is you husband.if you want to know how filthy these preachers ate just listen to aunty adunni or olowo eko,you will seek God yourself

Why is Nairaland no der ask if u be Christian before you comment on Christian page unlike the other people way be region of peace but nothing about them is peaceful
because Christianity is not a cult....it is only a cult that will demand you take oaths before anything.

So don't complain.

How the whites successfully made us believe these things πŸ˜‚

I wouldn't blame our ancestors, as of the time of invasion, most if not all were illiterate, so the minds was easy to penetrate.


If religion was a solution, your slave masters wouldn't had given it to you.
so your ancestors were illiterates and also foolish?

This scam no dey tire una?
Chai!!
You pray to god to give you money. And they tell you you have to give god money.
And you don't have the basic sense to ask them why you should give money to someone who owns all the money?
Oh, I forgot...
You aren't allowed to ask questions!! πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚

The most precious community I got that changed my life is common sense to see through the fraud called religion!!
There can't be anything greater in my life than that liberation!!

God bless you for sharing.

This world is coming to an end. It wasn't supposed to be like this: man killing fellow man, hunger everywhere, wickedness and all manner of evils. The world is rushing to its end, you will only notice if you are swimming in opposite direction. But if you are going with the flow, you wouldn't notice since you are flowing in ts direction.

Run to Christ today!

It's just too hard for me to believe a Jesus that claimed he could do nothing by himself could save me!

Could he save himself or his father?
