Respect. (Mal. 1:6)




Respect; the first in this 13 part series of my R.E.S.P.O.N.S.I.B.I.L.I.T.Y  as a Christian.









 As a Christian I should respect God and everything He stands for, this means respecting my Pastor, respecting my boss and respecting people that He has put in my life. By obeying, by respecting Him is giving honor where is due, because He deserves it; who else would've died for me? who else would've taken my place? who else would've taken my punishment?

By not obeying Him I am disrespecting Him and everything he stands for, by disrespecting authority I am disrespecting divine order. I should honor Him in everything that I say or do.

By not being on time to work or to church, I am not honoring Him, I am not respecting Him, even partial obedience is disobedience (1 Tim. 5:21)  I need to be more faithful to the service of my church, which means I must be more faithful to God.

If one is faithful to God and honors Him in everything he/she does, God will take care of the details.


We should respect God and everything He stands for, we should be on time to our jobs and to our services at church, we should always obey our pastors because they watch over us (Hebrews 13:17)

About the Blood

About the Blood Rev 1:5   And from Jesus Christ, who is the faithful witness, and the first begotten of the dead, and the prince of the kings of the earth. Unto him that loved us, and washed us from our sins in his own blood ,             1Pe 1:18   Forasmuch as ye know that ye were not redeemed with corruptible things, as silver and gold, from your vain conversation received by tradition from your fathers; 1Pe 1:19   But with the precious blood of Christ, as of a lamb without blemish and without spot: 1Pe 1:20   Who verily was foreordained before the foundation of the world, but was manifest in these last times for you, Heb 13:12   Wherefore Jesus also, that he might sanctify the people with his own blood, suffered without the gate. Heb 12:24   And to Jesus the mediator of the new covenant, and to the blood of sprinkling, that speaketh better things than that of...

Ecclesiastes 7:14

The world is full of injustice and of sin, they are equal in size and in strength; but that doesn't mean that there is no hope. Life in this world was wonderfully created but Lucifer didn't what it that way, he had to butt in on Adam and Eve, he was jealous of their connection to God; that same connection he had before he decided to sit on God's throne, to be like him.   Just like bacteria exist in our body, sin was always present, it means missing the mark and Lucifer purposely missed it by trying to be just like God. So , when trouble comes your way, don't ask why; ask what can I learn? We all are sinners because of Adam did on that not so joyful day, when he decided to  be persuaded by Eve in taking a bite out of that forbidden fruit.  The injustice will always happen, it means  to doubt God's grace and mercy, it means to take God out of our daily life, it means for us to be indifferent towards God's goal, which is to share the Gospel of Christ. ...

God's Faithfulness

As I was on my way to church, I had an accident on my bike; trying to make a turn but silly me, I put all of my weight on one handle bar and my bike got twisted. Thanks to God there were no cars behind me or it would've been more serious, I would've ended up in a hospital. God's faithfulness surpasses our own understanding; we are sinners and we the deserve the worst. I  should have ended up in the hospital for the sinner  I am;but by God's amazing grace I am still alive. I am alive for a very good reason and I haven't been faithful to God, but He still he wants to use us. What ever happens in your life, know that God permits it for a good reason; be it for you to grow strong in the Lord, to show you a lesson that He and only He can give you happiness and joy, and to mold you into a great master piece for the advancement of the Gospel. Words cannot express how I feel towards God, for the things He has done; even though I don't deserve it.
