We are holy by the works of faith and not by obeying laws - Caleb Ariyo

-

     If we were holy by obeying laws then no one will be holy because we are not justified by works of the law (Gal 2:16), (Gal 3:21). As a matter of fact no one can keep the whole law, the more you obey law the more you trespass some other laws. It is biblical we follow the commandment but never think you are right with God because you obeyed law. The law was established to drive us to faith (Gal 3:23-25).

     Reasons why obeying laws won't make you holy

1. The power of sin is law: Where there is law there is also sin (1cor 15:56)

2. The law reveals sin and makes no one perfect : (Heb 7:19) (romans 5:20) (Romans 3:20) and (Hebrew 10:4)

3. Faith became righteousness:  (Gal 3:6) and (Gal 3:11-12).

4. Christ's death would have been useless if the law could make us righteous: (Gal 2:21) Jesus came to fulfilled the law, so our duty is to have faith in the fulfilled works of Jesus Christ . We all inherited righteousness through His  death, he died for our future sins that whosoever believeth in him should not perish but have an everlasting life (John 3:16)
5.Jesus paid the price of our past,present and  future sins : Every sin which we have committed or will commit has been punished to the full in the body of Jesus Christ at the cross. You and I are perfected forever through Jesus’ perfect work on the cross. Hebrews 10:12, 14.

           In conclusion, (Heb 11:6) says without faith it is impossible to please God. You are holy by Faith

Stop preaching against the uses of jewelries, Spread the Gospel instead - Caleb Ariyo

JEWELRY: Does the Bible Says it’s a Sin? There are two separate verses in the New Testament that, at first glance appear to teach against wearing jewelry. The first is (1 pet 3:3) which reads: “whose adoring let it not be that outward adoring of plaiting of hair, and of wearing of gold or of putting on of apparel” The second and very similar verse is (1 tim 2:9) that says, “ In like manner also, that women adorn themselves in modest apparel, with shamefacedness and sobriety, not with broided hair, or gold, or pearls, or costly array” But are these Scriptures forbidding the use of jewelry by Christians? A number of holiness based Christian groups have come to that conclusion some believe that the use of earring is a sin, if such Christians want to follow (1.Pet 3:3) strictly that means plaiting of hair, wearing earrings and apparels are all sinful. (1 Pet 3:3) and (1 Tim 2:9) makes us to know that we should not build our interest in outward...

It's high time we started raising the dead(emptying mortuaries)- Caleb Ariyo

 Obviously it's has become a norm for believers to accept death of any kind as God's will. As a child of God you should live long above seventy psalmist’s words in Psalm 90:10: “The length of our days is seventy years—or eighty, if we have the strength.” God wasn’t promising that every person would live to be seventy or eighty, however; the psalmist was simply describing our normal human experience. Our times are in God’s hands, and for some their journey on earth is much shorter. Jesus was crucified when He was still in His 30s; the first martyr, Stephen, likewise was probably still a young man when he was put to death for his faith.(Psalm 91:16)God want his children to live long and death of the belivers must come in a peaceful manner and not by accident,sicknesses,diseases e.t.c(james1:17) And if death comes in any of this disastrous ways most belivers accept defeat and say God giveth and  taketh away without any attempt to go to the g...
