1 Corinthians 1.23[NKJV]
But we preach Christ crucified, to the Jews a stumbling block and to the Greeks foolishness,

THE CHRIST WE PREACH
As we prepare for this message to speak it out to men, what you have to know is that many different kinds of people view it through different lenses if their understanding and lifestyles of perspectives.

Apostle Paul writes this letter telling us that the message we preach is Christ - the anointed and Him crucified

But bringing out the perspectives of how the world receives this message is different; 

To the Jews who still believe that Christ is not the Messiah, they are still waiting for another saviour that will come and rule over Israel in the physical sector as a normal world king.

This causes them not to believe this message and it looks like an untrue story and without power.

And to the Gentiles[other people in this world], it seems to be an utterly unphilosophical nonsense; This causes them to disregard this Profound truth too.

NUGGET
But child of God, we have Have this treasure in earthen vessels that we preach what we have seen, heard and touched with our hands and now received in our lives Christ the power and the wisdom of God; You don't need to convince/persuade men to take this message; They have no excuse but to believe This Word of Life, Power, Love, Light and Wisdom of God. Hallelujah!

PRAYER
Loving father Lord Jesus Christ I thank you for your great mystery that you have entrusted to me. I thank you for your grace that enables me to proclaim you Word of Power and wisdom to this world. Amen

POWER OVER SIN

ELGON MISSION TEAM ~ DAILY DEVOTION Bible study department Sunday 16th June,2024 Galatians 5:24 (TLB) Those who belong to be Christ have nailed their natural evil desires to his cross and crucified them there.   POWER OVER SIN The strength for our conquering and our victory is drawn continually from Christ. The Bible does not teach that sin is completely eradicated from the Christian in this life, but it does teach that sin shall no longer reign over you.  The strength and power of sin have been broken. The Christian now has resources available to live above and beyond this world. The Bible teaches that whosoever is born of God does not practice sin. It is like the little girl who said that when the devil came knocking with a temptation, she just sent Jesus to the door. FURTHER STUDY: Romans 4:7(NKJV) Romans 6:14(NKJV) 1 John:18(NKJV) PRAYER: Lord Jesus, I Thank you for the power that continually make me live above sin, I live and move as a victor because the world finds ...

ELGON MISSION TEAM DAILY ~ DEVOTIONS Bible study department Saturday 13th January 2024 John 14:15-16 NKJV "If you love Me, keep My commandments. And I will pray the Father, and He will give you another Helper, that He may abide with you forever THE COMMANDMENT OF THE LORD In this portion of scripture, Jesus is telling his disciples that they have to keep His commandments then by that is when He will ask God the Father to send them the helper, that will abide with them forever. Mark 12:30 - 31 And you shall love the LORD your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your mind, and with all your strength.' This is the first commandment. And the second, like it, is this: "You shall love your neighbor as yourself.' There is no other commandment greater than these." There are many commandments that were given to the children of Israel but then we see Jesus Christ The Son of God enlightening us in this part of scripture that there is no other c...

Necessity Of Fasting

ELGON MISSION TEAM ~ DAILY DEVOTIONS Bible study department Thursday 13th June 2024 Mathew 17:21 (kJV)   "How beit this kind goeth not out but by prayer and fasting." NECESSITY OF FASTING In the book of Mathew 9:14-15,we realize that the groom left only when he spent 3 days in the grave. We all believe in His resurrection and the bible clearly tells us that when we received Him He begun to dwell in us, in other words the bridegroom is with us still. So why then do we fast?? Many christians have it on their minds that it's because they fast that they receive results simply because they received results after some serious days, weeks, months, or even years of fasting, this is a very inconsistent way to go about fasting because if you think that what Jesus did on the cross is not enough, then how much more is your fasting insufficient?? , you can't help God by fasting. Apostle Paul wrote in 1 Corinthians 9:27(AMP) ".........but like a boxer, I buffett my...
