Divine Gospel Ministry

John 19:30, “When Jesus therefore had received the vinegar, he said, It is finished: and he bowed his head, and gave up the ghost.”

The greatest words ever uttered in Human history came from our Lord Jesus Christ, by simply saying “It is Finished.” With only these three words the sin debt brought into Humanity by Adam and Eve was paid in full by way of the Cross of Christ. The imperfect man was granted Grace and Mercy with Forgiveness, which is given to all who would except the Gospel of Jesus Christ, which is only excepting that Jesus has taken away the sins that every man or woman commits. Jesus not only with these words paid the high price of our sins but also fulfilled the Law of Moses which is the high standard of perfection that God called for everyone to follow and obey after the fall.

Jesus being God and Man was the only one perfect enough to hold true to every law that was passed down to Moses as stated in the book of Exodus Chp 20:1-17. The Sabbath was kept Holy, the day of rest can now be found in Jesus Christ Matthew 11:28, “Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest,” by placing ones Faith in the finished work at the Cross the Lord can free all from any heartache stated in Galatians 5:1-6, “Stand fast therefore in the liberty wherewith Christ hath made us free, and be not entangled again with the yoke of bondage. Behold, I Paul say unto you, that if ye be circumcised, Christ shall profit you nothing. For I testify again to every man that is circumcised, that he is a debtor to do the whole law.

Christ is become of no effect unto you, whosoever of you are justified by the law; ye are fallen from grace. For we through the Spirit wait for the hope of righteousness by faith. For in Jesus Christ neither circumcision availeth any thing, nor uncircumcision; but faith which worketh by love.” We are secured by being placed in the Divine will of God, with His will being nothing less of truly being blessed by Him through Jesus Christ. Sickness cannot remain, depression must bow out, and sin cannot abound in the presence of God! Let those who are suffering in any area of their life that the sin that they are carrying, they do not have to carry it because Christ took it for them on the Cross. By only believing on the Cross, Jesus will tell them “It is Finished.” Shalom…

Romans 5:1-2, “Therefore being justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ: By whom also we have access by faith into this grace wherein we stand, and rejoice in hope of the glory of God.”

The Greek word for Justification according to the New Testament of The Holy Bible, is “dikaioo.” This word means “to acquit,” or “to vindicate,” according to the Word of God. The Faith that Christians place in the Lord Jesus as and atonement for the “sin nature,” that was inherited by all Mankind from Adam and Eve. This makes all who accept Christ right in the eyes of the one true God. This is made possible only through the Divine Nature of Jesus, being both God and Man who knew no sin, 2 Corinthians 5:21, but took the burden of sin, for all of Us to the Cross to be sacrificied on Our behalfs.

The New Testament states that by Faith we are placed inside His death Spiritually in Romans 6:3-5 stating, “Know ye not, that so many of us as were baptized into Jesus Christ were baptized into his death? Therefore we are buried with him by baptism into death: that like as Christ was raised up from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life. For if we have been planted together in the likeness of his death, we shall be also in the likeness of his resurrection.”

The Bible says being Baptized into Christ, (not by water, but Faith in Him) totally defeats the sin nature, and washes us and makes all Believers pure in the eyes of God. Who looks upon all with Faith in Jesus as His true Sons and Daughters in Christ. The price that had to be paid to defeat sin and death, could not be attained through works of Religion or by being a truly good person. It is alot deeper that, seeing as how every man and woman are born into sin already automatically puts all of mankind in the direct opposition of God. It took a perfect sacrifice, a truly sinless individual to unlock the shackles and free Us from eternal separation from God. Jesus was that Person!

Who came into this world and died so that We all could be free. Our Faith places Us in the Lord’s death, so that we could do away with the sinful desires of Our hearts, and be with Him. How do we know that we will be with Him? The same way that we died with Him, God has also resurrected all Christian Believers as such. Shalom…

Isaiah 53:5, But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed.

The above scripture found in the book of Isaiah, is perhaps One of the most important scriptures that every Disciple of Christ should know. The Prophet Isaiah is speaking about the coming Messiah Jesus Christ and just what He would do for all of Mankind through His death. Describing just what the wages Our Sin would do to His mortal body. “He was wounded for Our transgressions,” relates to the Cross and just how The Lord would die by Crucifixion.

“He was bruised for Our iniquities,” states what He suffered was not for Himself but for all of Us, The wages of sin is death (Romans 6:23) which had to be paid for the remission of Sin. “The chastisement of Our peace was upon Him,” refers to being made right in the eyes of God. Before the Death and Resurrection of Jesus Christ, all of Mankind was in eternal debt to God who could not dwell with man due to the sin nature that inhabited His body. As was in the Old Testament of The Holy Bible, the blood shed on altars from animals could not atone for just how deep sin had infected Our being. God in His Grace and Mercy sent The Christ to die instead, to cover Us so that His Holy Spirit could dwell in all who believe by simply placing Their Faith in Jesus Christ and Him Crucified.

“And with His stripes We are healed,” pertains to physical healing but more so Spiritual Healing. By allowing the will of God to operate totally in Our Spirit, Mind and Bodies. The over coming of sin is by no means and easy task. No man can on His own, no matter how wealthy or knowledgeable that He is can make Himself right by any means, other than the Cross of Jesus Christ. Sin had to be overcome by God Himself, due to the fact that the price was Spiritual and to big for anyone to pay. I take joy in Isaiah 53:5, knowing that God cared enough for Me to send His Son Jesus to die, so that We all can be healed. Shalom…

Jude 1:3, “Beloved, when I gave all diligence to write unto you of the common salvation, it was needful for me to write unto you, and exhort you that ye should earnestly contend for the faith which was once delivered unto the saints.”

As we draw closer and closer to the soon end times, as prophesied in the Holy Bible is that we persevere unto the second coming of our Lord Jesus Christ. Moving into this new decade many False Teachings, False Prophets and unsaved men and women will come against Our God of the Bible either by new New Age Spiritual beliefs, or advancements in science that will try to sway Our Faith from the finished work of Jesus at the Cross. As stated by Jesus in Matthew 24, when the Disciples asked when will be the sign of the Christ second coming and Jesus reponded , “And Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that no man deceive you. For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many. And ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars: see that ye be not troubled: for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet.”

The end times will be of great sorrow Jesus later went on to say. These times call for warriors in Christ to rise up against the Spiritual wickedness that is coming, to be discerning of the events on the news, in magazines and also the music we are listening to. So, that we are not deceived into any false doctrine that will sway our Faith in the Cross. This is the time to Preach the Gospel with authority to the world, proclaiming that Jesus Christ is Lord and Salvation is needed for all of mankind by means of the Cross.

I urge every Christian to study and stand totally on the Word of God, so that we are kept from the same judgement that will soon be coming upon this world. Believing on the Cross of Christ and placing all total Faith in it, will allow the Holy Spirit to guide us into all truth. John 16:13 states, When the Spirit of truth comes, he will guide you into all the truth; for he will not speak on his own authority, but whatever he hears he will speak, and he will declare to you the things that are to come.

This will allow all who have Faith in the finished work of Christ the power to, have authority over all devils, and to cure diseases, and to heal the sick stated in Luke 9:1-2. Ephesians 6:12, reads “For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.” In the name of the Lord Jesus Christ we will slay these giants and persever to the end. Stay Blessed!

Galatians 3:28-29, “There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female: for ye are all one in Christ Jesus. And if ye be Christ’s, then are ye Abraham’s seed, and heirs according to the promise.”

It is many times really hard to view the news and see the world that we live in today. So many cities here in America and countries overseas, poverty stricken and in the grip of violence an oppression. With little or no hope, alot of societies turn on themselves and cause chaos and mayhem, while the governments of the world scramble to unify everyone under a common law and belief. I see the world looking for and answer that the Body of Christ has already found the solution to, The Lord Jesus Christ!

Galatians 3:28-29, is a scripture for all Humanity to take note of. Here the Apostle Paul is addressing the Church on just who we are in Christ Jesus in the eyes of God.”There is neither Jew nor Greek,” destroys the wall that has separated many Jews and Christians. Though we never were born into the Abrahamic bloodline our belief in Christ places us right in their without prejudice of origin. We are all one Brotherhood in The Lord Jesus Christ, for the Glory of God.”Bond or free,” would have been the answer to slavery so many years ago and in Sudan today.

God does not recognize a free man any more one who is enslaved only that the son Jesus is glorified in that individual. Jesus came to set all men and women free, by breaking the back of the sin of racism by nationality and social status! “Neither male nor female,” is the answer to can women Preach the Gospel, and the answer is a resounding yes! As long as the Gospel is preached, is all that matters to the Father so that souls can be saved and grace granted. The Lord recognizes a man no more than a woman, we are all created by God with the right to glorify the Savior Jesus Christ whether in public or private. “And if ye be Christ’s, then ye Abraham seed, and heirs to the promise,” places us in the promise to the Hebrew people.

Though we spent so many days and nights wandering the desert we finally made it home in Christ. I urge all who have read this to invite everyone into the promise of Jesus Christ our Lord. “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life,” and the only answer for all humanity! Shalom…

Luke 9:14-17, “For there were about 5,000 men there. Jesus replied, “Tell them to sit down in groups of about fifty each.” So the people all sat down. Jesus took the five loaves and two fish, looked up toward heaven, and blessed them. Then, breaking the loaves into pieces, he kept giving the bread and fish to the disciples so they could distribute it to the people. They all ate as much as they wanted, and afterward, the disciples picked up twelve baskets of leftovers!”

Many Christians should always keep in mind the redemption process that God has set in motion for those He has chosen for His glory, John 15:16. Once we are saved by the blood that Jesus shed for our sins, then begins the purification process, the shifting of our souls to see what is pleasing to God and what is not. Luke 9:14-17, is a very good example of just what the Lord does He receives us, blesses us and then breaks us of the way we think, act, and what we say. Only then can we truly testify on His behalf for all that He has done for us. We have a tendency to look past this part though only wishing to get the blessings that God has but the Lord needs us to be rebuilt first before we can we positioned to do His work in whatever compacity that is fit for you to walk in. This means that some places that you used to enjoy going to will now be off limits because it doesn’t line up with Him, some friendships may end because old friends can give birth to old sins, remember Amos 3:3. So from time to time we are going to bump heads with the old man, after being born again but just know that something better is waiting for you on the other side once we are glorified in Christ! The breaking and mending back together is all for the glory of God the Father who in grace and mercy chose you to receive the gift of Jesus Christ. Stay Blessed…

Mark 13:27, “And then shall he send his angels, and shall gather together his elect from the four winds, from the uttermost part of the earth to the uttermost part of heaven.”

One of the most comforting facts about the Bible is knowing that we are God’s elect, chosen by God to know the truth of His Word in Jesus Christ. This is what makes Christian’s unique from the rest of the world, in having ears to hear the truth and testify on the behalf of the Lord Jesus Christ. While the world rejected Him we were enlighten by the Holy Spirit of God to receive the truth about Yeshua/Jesus Christ, knowing that is the sin offering for the imperfect man and woman. The ONLY way to be made right in the eyes of Jehovah God (John 14:6)! This election was determined even before our birth 2 Thessalonian 2:13 states, “But we are bound to give thanks alway to God for you, brethren beloved of the Lord, because God hath from the beginning chosen you to salvation through sanctification of the Spirit and belief of the truth: Whereunto he called you by our gospel, to the obtaining of the glory of our Lord Jesus Christ. Therefore, brethren, stand fast, and hold the traditions which ye have been taught, whether by word, or our epistle. Now our Lord Jesus Christ himself, and God, even our Father, which hath loved us, and hath given us everlasting consolation and good hope through grace, Comfort your hearts, and stablish you in every good word and work.” The question now is what are we as believer’s to do with our election? Are we to just attend Church on Sunday’s and wait on the Lord’s return, or do we as elected officials have a job of service to our Lord? We must help spread the word of the Gospel of Jesus Christ to as many people as we can so the Holy Spirit of God can draw as many into the truth of Jesus Christ. Letting others know that Jesus Christ is the only way to God Almighty. Shalom…

Luke 13:1-9, There were present at that season some that told him of the Galilaeans, whose blood Pilate had mingled with their sacrifices. And Jesus answering said unto them, Suppose ye that these Galilaeans were sinners above all the Galilaeans, because they suffered such things? I tell you, Nay: but, except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish. Or those eighteen, upon whom the tower in Siloam fell, and slew them, think ye that they were sinners above all men that dwelt in Jerusalem? I tell you, Nay: but, except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish. He spake also this parable; A certain man had a fig tree planted in his vineyard; and he came and sought fruit thereon, and found none. Then said he unto the dresser of his vineyard, Behold, these three years I come seeking fruit on this fig tree, and find none: cut it down; why cumbereth it the ground? And he answering said unto him, Lord, let it alone this year also, till I shall dig about it, and dung it: And if it bear fruit, well: and if not, then after that thou shalt cut it down.

One of the main focal points of being a true Disciple of Christ, is always remembering to be a positive example of what true salvation means in the Lord Jesus. The parable of the fig tree is symbolic of the House of Israel, who rejected the Gospel of Yeshua/Jesus Christ as the Messiah but instead chose religion over the Lamb of God. Jehovah God in return rejected the Hebrew people scattering them across the nations for their failure to receive God’s only means of salvation for mankind.

This same parable can also represent the modern day Christian Believer who holds no true knowledge of the Word of God. Being a true testimony of the Gospel of Jesus Christ, will always bring forth righteous fruit that can in return be used to feed those who are hungry for the Lord. These “fruits,” manifest in the Christians natural life and testify of the love and grace that God has for all who will except His only way for salvation. These fruits are stated in 2 Peter 1:5-9, “And beside this, giving all diligence, add to your faith(belief in the Cross) virtue(moral excellence); and to virtue knowledge(of the scriptures); And to knowledge temperance(self control); and to temperance patience(waiting on the Lord); and to patience godliness(conscious of God’s will); And to godliness brotherly kindness(treating all as you would want to be treated); and to brotherly kindness charity(Love). For if these things be in you, and abound, they make you that ye shall neither be barren nor unfruitful in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ. But he that lacketh these things is blind, and cannot see afar off, and hath forgotten that he was purged from his old sins.”

These characteristics will follow the Believer and show of the saving Grace of our Lord Jesus Christ. This is only made possible by placing our Faith only and solely in the Cross of Jesus Christ, who will in return grant us His Holy Spirit who will nourish the seed of Faith we have sown in Jesus Christ as read in Roman chp 8. I pray all will take the time to water their “tree,”(spiritual man) with the Living Waters of God, Jesus Christ and bring forth much fruit for the Kingdom of God. Shalom…
