Memory Verse: Joh 1:12  But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name: 

Topic: Are you being poisoned or being transformed?

Today’s Reading:

Rom 5:12  Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned: 

Php 3:20  For our conversation is in heaven; from whence also we look for the Saviour, the Lord Jesus Christ: 

Php 3:21  Who shall change our vile body, that it may be fashioned like unto his glorious body, according to the working whereby he is able even to subdue all things unto himself. 

Words of the Ministry:

Today as we continue our lesson, we would be looking closely as the inward situation of the natural man who have not bee saved. The fall of man as recorded in Genesis makes us realize that sin entered into man (Rom 5.12) and that deadened his spirit, separating him from God and making him an enemy of God in his mind(Col1.21). The same poison in his mind affected his body and transmuted it to sinful flesh (Gen 6.3, Rom 6.12). As a result of the poison gotten from the tree of knowledge of good and evil which man ate, man became an enemy of God, in this condition he could not receive God. In Jeremiah 17.9, the bible describing the condition of the natural man’s heart said it is deceitful and desperately wicked.

From today’s reading we can therefore see that sin that entered into the world did bring death and the bible also teaches that death is the wages of sin. The natural man’s reward is therefore death because he has the nature of the devil who has been destined to the lake of fire. The second reading shows us a great contrast, the saints on the other hand through the working of the Holy Spirit within them are being changed to the likeness of God from glory to glory. Through the entrance of the Holy Spirt into our spirit which occurs at salvation, God begins to spread himself from our spirit to our soul, that is called transformation. By this process, as we corporate with God (Phil2.12), God would eventually saturate our desires, thought and decisions, we begin to reason as he does. At the end of the age even our bodies would have been glorified having the same appearing as he is.

Dear reader what a privilege to be saved. These are thing money can’t buy. It doesn’t matter your status, degree, connection, wealth or societal recognition. You must ask yourself, am I being poisoned daily despite your wealth, name, fame etc or are you being transformed to becoming like the almighty God. Today is another opportunity to be saved. As for the saints, this is to further make us appreciate the beauty of our decision to love the lord and to make us see the unsaved as captives needing help. We must continually pray for their salvation as the poison within them can only be removed by the blood of the lamb. May the Lord grant us light.
