A word of Knowledge: What Good Tidings of Jesus Christ?

A word of Knowledge:


What Good Tidings of Jesus Christ?


Mark 1:1 KJV

The beginning of the gospel of Jesus Christ, the Son of God;


What are the main good news (gospel) of Jesus Christ?


Isaiah 53:5 KJV

1. But he was wounded for our transgressions, 

2. he was bruised for our iniquities: 

3. the chastisement of our peace was upon him; 

4. and with his stripes we are healed.


1.

The first good news is that our transgressions or sins have been atoned by Christ. We are forgiven of our sins. 

This is the gospel of Salvation from sins that is commonly and sadly, the only thing that is being proclaimed in the modern Church.

The modern Church knows little or are even ignorant of the 3 other good news.


2. 

Our iniquities or evil was atoned by Christ.

Evil can now be removed by believing in Christ.

The evil in the fallen man can now be cleansed through the regeneration or our spirit being born again in the Spirit. 

We are given a new spirit that is free from evil inwardly.


With the inward evil being cleansed of us, what is the outward evil?

It is the devils or evil spirits or demons or unclean spirits that will oppress or afflict or even take captivity or possession of man.

But in Christ's atonement, we are now given the power of attorney or authority to cast out the devils.


3.

Through Christ's atonement, we may now have the peace of God.

Yes, we shall receive the peace not as the world gave us but the peace that God Himself gave us. 


4.

With Christ's stripes as atonement for us, we are healed of sicknesses and diseases!

However, the healing does not come automatically if we do not believe that it has been given us with His stripes.

We need to believe and receive the healing due to us (He has atoned it for us!!) by His grace through our faith in Him in exactly the same way that we received Salvation from sins in 1.


Therefore, because of Christ's atonement for us:
1. I am forgiven of my sins.
2. I am cleansed of all evils.
3. I am given peace upon Him.
4. I am healed of sicknesses and diseases. 


The beginning verse of the Book of Mark starts with the gospel of Jesus Christ and it ends in parallel,

with the command of Jesus Christ to us all,

to go into all the world,

and proclaim and to demonstrate the truth and reality of the good news of Jesus Christ to every creature!


Mark 16:15-18 KJV

And he said unto them, 

Go ye into all the world, 

and preach the gospel to every creature. 


[16] He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned. 


[17] And these signs shall follow them that believe; 

In my name shall they cast out devils; 

they shall speak with new tongues; 

[18] They shall take up serpents; 

and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; 

they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover.

A Real-life Deliverance Account

My sister and I had just done a deliverance on my mum yesterday (Tue, 28 Nov 2023).  It started when she kept vomitting and feeling very giddy and we laid hands upon her as usual according to the Word for divine healing.  However, it merely gave some relief to her, unlike other times as after a while, the extreme nauseousness and giddiness attacked her again. Then right around this point the demon took over her mind (soul) somewhat partially. The symptoms was that she looked dazed and kept repeating over and over again a number of questions like "Why am I sitting here" etc.  At this point when we talked to her, she did not remember anything that she did for the whole day (current time around 4pm+). It is very much like how a person with dementia would behaved and conversed.  To keep the long story short,  we took 2-3 hrs of casting out the demons in her and she is well now. Fast forward, It appeared that the demons came from H***i B***r (American Missionary) who came to our s

Absolute Surrender: Peter's Repentance

Absolute Surrender By Andrew Murray Peter's Repentance You may be a very earnest, godly, devoted believer, in whom the power of the flesh is yet very strong. That is a very solemn truth.  Peter, before he denied Christ, had cast out devils and had healed the sick; and yet the flesh had power, and the flesh had room in him.  Oh, beloved, we have to realize that it is just because there is so much of that self-life in us that the power of God cannot work in us as mightily as God is willing that it should work.  Do you realize that the great God is longing to double His blessing, to give tenfold blessing through us?  But there is something hindering Him, and that something is a proof of nothing but the self-life.  We talk about the pride of Peter, and the impetuosity of Peter, and the self-confidence of Peter. It all rooted in that one word, self.  Christ had said, “Deny self,” and Peter had never understood, and never obeyed; and every failing came out of that. What a solemn thought,

A word of Knowledge: Stop depicting the Holy Spirit as a dove

A word of Knowledge Stop depicting the Holy Spirit as a dove Luke 3:22 KJV And the Holy Ghost descended in a bodily shape like a dove upon him, and a voice came from heaven, which said, Thou art my beloved Son; in thee I am well pleased. Many people, if not everyone, have misunderstood this verse. They pictured the Holy Spirit coming in the shape of a dove coming down upon Jesus. No, this is not what God is telling us at all.  What purpose does it serve to tell us the Holy Spirit looks like a dove where He obviously does not look like that?  God is not the author of foolishness and  confusion.  We are made in God's image, therefore, God the Holy Spirit's bodily shape is one that resembles that of a man, just as God the Son and God the Father. Now, let us read the verse again slowly: "And the Holy Ghost descended in a BODILY SHAPE like a dove upon him" ...in what bodily shape? It is of course in the shape of a man! And the Holy Ghost DESCENDED in a bodily shape LIKE A
