MUST READ!!! THE THREE CHRISTIAN EXPERIENCES AND IT'S NECESSITIES.
Hello brethren, i give glory to the Lord Jesus Christ that inspired and enables me to prepare this teaching about "THE THREE CHRISTIAN EXPERIENCE AND ITS NECESSITIESmay his name be praised, I pray that as we are going to study it, the Holy Spirit will teach us himself and help us to make practical use of it so that we will be able to inherit the Kingdom of God, in Jesus name we pray. Amen.
THE THREE CHRISTIAN EXPERIENCES AND ITS NECESSITIES.
The three Christian Experiences are the three basic steps that every Humanity needs to take in order to be like Christ, i.e to possess Christ like Nature, Christ behaviour, Christ way of life, then that fellow is worthy to be called a CHRISTIAN. And if that person continues in that Christ's way of life till the end, heaven will receive that soul to the kingdom of God.
The Bible says in the book of the Romans 3:23 that:
"For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God".
Since the day our first parents, Adam and Eve, transgressed the commandment of God, every seeds of theirs, became sinner. Meaning; Every creature called 'HUMAN BEING', are all UNRIGHTEOUS. That is why the book of the
Romans 3 : 10, goes thus:
"As it is written, there is none righteous, no not one."
So, for Human being to become righteous, in order to recover back the glory of God, there is a compulsory need for these three basic steps to be taken, and those steps are:
1. SALVATION
2. SANCTIFICATION
3. BAPTISM OF THE HOLY GHOST.
In this teaching, we are going to treat and study each step one after the other, because the Lord Jesus Christ himself instructed, and The Spirit of God inspired me to pen it down this way and make the whole world to read and make use of it practically, He said it is only few churches that preach about it and some many churches have never or have stop talking about it to their members.
So we will treat it volume by volumes and it is three volumes. The first volume is the teaching about the first step which is SALVATION OR JUSTIFICATION Known generally as being born again.
TEACHING ABOUT SALVATION (Vol. 1)
1. SALVATION: This is the first step that every creature called human being compulsorily needs to take by grace through faith in order to acquire God's righteousness, to reconcile with God and be free from the yoke of sin so that the Lost glory God can be restored to that fellow through the blood of the Lord Jesus Christ.
Salvation has great functional roles to perform in humans' life. Those functions are as follows:
FUNCTIONAL ROLES OF SALVATION IN HUMANS' LIFE
1. It cut down the stem with the branches of sinful tree that germinated and grow from the seed of sin that Adam and Eve had planted in the garden of Eden. In another way round, the experience of Salvation demolished the house of sin that an individual HUMAN BEING had erected upon the foundation of sin laid by our first parents, i.e Adam and Eve.
2. Salvation qualifies Every human being to have the mark of the BLOOD OF JESUS CHRIST on him or her which reconciled the person back to God and that mark serves as the only "TICKET" to pass that person to God's Kingdom.
3. Salvation experienced by any human being, qualifies him or her to become a CHILD of God that can pray and ask for any thing from God the Father and he will hear and answer the person.
WAYS TO SALVATION
The only one way to salvation is: JESUS CHRIST by His blood, by grace through faith. You Believe it or you disbelieve it, take it, or leave it, it remain like that, no more, no less. The Holy Bible says in the book of John 3:16 that:
"For God so love the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
This has being planned by God right from the garden of Eden, immediately Man fall, Genesis 3:15
" And I will put enmity between thee and thee woman, and between thy seed and her seed; it shall bruise thy head, and thou shalt bruise his heel".
This portion was pointing to Jesus Christ that will come and die for all Humanity.
STEPS TO SALVATION
1. ACKNOWLEDGE: This mean you accept and admit that you are a sinner. Then what do you do?
2. CONFESS AND REPENT: This means you will go before God your creator with your heart opened, be genuinely sorry for your sins and ask for his forgiveness, doing this, it means you and God are reasoning together. That is why the book of Isaiah 1:18 say:
"come now, and let us reason together, saith the LORD: though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they be red like crimson, they shall be as wool".
3. FORSAKE: This means,, as you confess you determined never to go back to sin again. That is why God spoke in the book of Isaiah 55 : 7 that:
" Let the wicked forsake his way, and the unrighteous man his thoughts: and let him return unto the LORD; and he will have mercy upon him; and to our God, for he will abundantly pardon".
4. BELIEVE: That is as you are confessing right there before God, you should have the believe that he will save you. John 3:16
5. RECEIVE: This is the point when the practical work of salvation is done in your heart and you will feel the evidence, The evidence felt is always a mighty undescribable joy that feel your heart and the spirit of God will speak in your heart to go and sin no more. This is Because at the point of your salvation, there is great joy in heaven, so, that joy will also transpire in your soul and you feel it in your heart.
Roman 8:16: " The spirit itself beareth witness with our spirit that we are the children of God".
If you are genuinely saved, the fruits will show in your way of life. You know the bible says: "By their fruits, we shall know them:.
Have you ever experienced salvation like this?
By the grace of God, i experienced it like this in 1990.
Since then, God has being helping me, and any time I erred, i go back to calvary to re - bath again in the pool of the blood of Jesus, and he will lift me up again, meaning there is nothing like, once saved, saved forever (eternal security). It is a lie, if you erred and you refused to go back to calvary, then, expect to end your journey in hell.
HE THAT HATH AN EAR, LET HIM HEAR WHAT THE SPIRIT SAYETH UNTO THE CHURCHES.
God bless you all.
THE TEACHING CONTINUES:
THE THREE CHRISTIAN EXPERIENCES AND THEIR NECESSITIES (VOLUME 2)
In the volume one of this teaching, the meaning of three christian experiences and its necessities have been treated. We have also learnt about the first step of those experiences known as: Salvation or justification (being born again).
In this second volume, we will by God's grace learn about the second step known as SANCTIFICATION.
I pray that the spirit of God the Father will teach us and help us to praticalize it in Jesus Christ name.
WHAT IS SANCTIFICATION?
Sanctification is the second step that a genuinely saved, justified or born again soul needs to take to attain the level of total holiness state of spiritual life before God.
This is the experience that every creature called human being that have received forgiveness for all their iniquities by grace through faith and the believe in the name and the blood of Jesus Christ the only sacrificial Lamb for the ransom of our soul need to possess.
The experience of sanctification happens as the saved soul go deeper into devoted prayers and consecrations before the Lord.
THE REASON WHY HUMAN BEING NEEDS SANCTIFICATION AFTER SALVATION.
A saved soul needs to be sanctified after being saved because right from the moment that our first parents disobeyed God in the garden of Eden, the SEED of sin was planted.
This seed of sin germinated and developed strong ROOT or FOUNDATION. This root/foundation is naturally inherited by every human being born through the normal biological process, i.e the union of a man and a women.
This Root/foundation of sin inherited by every human being is called, ADAMIC NATURE or THE OLD MAN.
It is this inherited nature in every born child that pushes him or her not to have any other thought than that of committing SIN. We see that at times, a new born child being nursed by the mother, get angry and cry with no one knowing the reason, it will angrily reject sucking of breast. Sometimes, this wicked root of sin makes the child to bite the mother's breast.
It was this inherited nature that pushed CAIN the first born of Adam and Eve to develop Jealousness and eventually killed his brother ABEL. Read Genesis 4:1 -end.
Can we see them deadly impact that this inherited nature have on human race?
CAIN built his own house of sin on that foundation laid by his parent. That is the same way every human being built on that same foundation.
But whenever any human being come to Jesus Christ and get saved, that erected house of sin is demolished, but the root or the foundation is still there.
We all know that a stunk of a tree will start to bud again if rain fall on it as long as its root is still alive inside the ground, a new house can easily be erected on the foundation of a demolished house.
The same way, if the ROOT of SIN or the ADAMIC NATURE is destroyed from the life of a saved soul, sooner or later he or she will start sinning again.
So, a saved soul needs to go extra miles in the study of God's word along with deep consecrated and devoted prayers to nail Mr. FLESH to the cross to the point at which the ADAMIC NATURE called the ROOT/FOUNDATION of sin which is also known as the THE OLD MAN will be eliminated. That experience is called SANCTIFICATION. This sanctification must continue till we enter the kingdom of God. That was why Apostle Paul says:
" I DIE DAILY"
The Lord Jesus Christ himself prayed for his disciples to get this in the book of John 17:17, He said:
" Sanctify them through thy truth, thy word is truth".
Every saved soul today needs Sanctification, that was why The Lord in the same John 17 : 20 when he said,:
" Neither pray i for this alone, but for them also which shall believe on me through their words".
For this Sanctification work to be established, Jesus was crucified the wall of Jerusalem. We see this in the book of the Hebrews 13:,11 - 13, it says:
" For the body of those beasts, whose blood is brought into the sanctuary by the high priest for sin are burnt with out the camp, wherefore Jesus also that he might sanctify the people with his own blood, suffered without the gate. Let us go forth therefore unto him without the camp bearing his reproach".
The experience of sanctification have a lot of functions to perform in the life of a saved soul (Christian) and the body of Christ (Church) as a whole.
Therefore, we want to analyse those functions in two categorie as:
1. Functions of sanctification in the life of a saved soul.
2. The functions of sanctification in the body of Christ (Church) as a cwhole.
1. FUNCTIONS OF SANCTIFICATION IN THE LIFE OF A CHRISTIAN
a. It eliminate and destroy the Adamic nature called the root of sin or the old man.
b. Sanctification purify a saved soul to become totally holy both inside and outside in order to be presentable before God. Read (John 17 : 24)..
c. A sanctified soul know what and what not to put on without being told. Read (Romans 12:1-2)
d. Sanctification qualifies a Christian to receive baptism of the holy ghost, because the holy spirit can never dwell impure environment.
2. FUNCTIONS OF SANCTIFICATION ON THE BODY OF CHRIST AS A WHOLE (THE CHURCH)
a. Sanctification unify the church, i.e every member of the body of Christ will be in one accord. The Lord Jesus Christ prayed this for the disciples when he was sanctifying them In John 17:21 - 23, He said:
" That they all may be one: as thou, Father art in me. and I in thee, that they also may be one in us: that the world may believe that thou has sent me. And the glory which thou gravest me I have given them: that they may be one , even as we are one.
I in them, and thou in me, that they may be made perfect in one: and that the world may know that thou hast sent me, and hast loved them, as thou has loved me. It was this sanctificationnk
[6/20, 10:31 PM] Blessing Gomina: that bond the disciples together to be in one accord on the upper room as they were praying expecting the comforter (Holy Ghost):
And when the day of Pentecost was fully come, they were all with one accord in one place. (Acts 2:1)
Praise be to the Lord Jesus Christ, for this teaching, we could see that a sinner cannot be sanctified, meaning the experiences has to be gotten one after the other.
By the grace of God, the Lord will teach us about the third experience in the next Volume.
HE THAT HATH AN EAR, LET HIM HEAR WHAT THE SPIRIT SAYETH UNTO THE CHURCHES.
God bless you all.

THE THREE CHRISTIAN EXPERIENCES AND THEIR NECESSITIES. (VOLUME 3)
ABOUT THE BAPTISM OF THE HOLY GHOST.
Before the Lord Jesus Christ went to the cross, he prayed for his disciples to receive sanctification, (John17:17). But before he did this, he told them that:
" But now I go my way to him that sent me, and none of you asketh me, wither goeth thou,? But because I have said these things unto you, sorrow hath filled your heart. Nevertheless I tell you the truth, it is expedient for you that I go away, for if I go not away, the comforter will not come unto you., but if I depart, I will send him unto you" (John.16:5-7).
After Jesus Christ resurrected from the death, He gathered his disciples and:
" Command them that they should not depart from Jerusalem but wait for the promise of the Father which saith he, ye have heard of me for John truly baptised with water, but ye shall be baptised with the Holy Ghost not many days hence. But ye shall receive power, after that the holy ghost is come upon you and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judea, and in Samaria, and unto the utmost part of the earth" (Acts 1:4,5,8).
After this instruction to the disciples, Jesus was taken away from them and received into heaven. Then the disciples departed from there and they went to Jerusalem to wait for the COMFORTER (HOLY GHOST) as Jesus has commanded them.
While they were waiting, they were praying seriously with one accord, because they were all sanctified. On the day of Pentecost all of them receive the Holy Ghost and began to speak with other tongues as the spirit gave utterance. ( Study the book of Acts 1: 9 -26; 2: 1-4)
Some women were there too, including Mary the mother of Jesus and his siblings. Mary the mother of Jesus, the woman whom CATHOLICS claims to be honouring and adore also needs and must receive the Holy Ghost before she too was fully qualify as a saint to work for God and finally get to heaven.
Then, CATHOLIC MEMBERS!! where do you receive your own instruction that because God used her womb as a passage to pass through as GOD IN FLESH to die for us, so she became mother of God to intercede for you?
Since you people decided to accept that lies from Satan, God is waiting for you.
The Baptism of the Holy Ghost have great functional roles to play in Every Christian pilgrimage journey to heaven, such as:
1. It connects Christians to Heaven, it reveals truth and give guidance to Christians.
(Study the book of John 16:8- 15).
2. It gives power and boldness to do the work of God without fear and shyness.
(Acts 1:8; 2:14---). Example of this is "PETER". Peter that was afraid before a little girl and denied Jesus, became very bold and preach that same JESUS CHRIST in the presence of multitudes that were mocking them after he received the Holy Ghost.
3. The Holy Ghost is the wing with which the saints will fly to meet The LORD JESUS CHRIST in the sky during the rapture.
Glory be to God the trinity for the completion of this teaching.
HE THAT HATH AN EAR, LET HIM HEAR WHAT THE SPIRIT SAYETH UNTO THE CHURCHES.
