Works Of Faith

Light Embassy Church

If ignorant preachers and agents of the Devil take some Christians to the lake of
fire, it will be their own doing.
There are Christians who may brand some ministers as unloving just because they
correct and rebuke them. Those that allow them to live anyhow in the name of
Grace are seen as the true messengers of the Gospel. They have bought into an
erroneous Gospel branded as “once saved always saved”. This message propagates
an impression that, since the Lord Jesus has paid for all sins, past, present and
future, sin doesn’t matter anymore. This is to say that, no matter how you live in
Christ, you will escape the second death and many have bought into that notion,
the results being the fornication, adultery, homosexuality and all manner of sins
seen in the present day Church.
Do such ministers understand Grace than Jesus Himself? Do you understand
Grace than the Lord Himself, who personally warned the seven churches in Asia
against such things? Who told them to repent from fornication, adultery, imperfect
works or stand having their names been blot out from the book of life.
“He that overcometh, the same shall be clothed in white raiment; and I will
not blot out his name out of the book of life, but I will confess his name before
my Father, and before his angels. He that hath an ear, let him hear what the
Spirit saith unto the churches..... Revelation 3:5-6KJV”
The Master says, “Hear what the Spirit says to the Churches”. Why were they
asked to overcome?
“Be watchful, and strengthen the things which remain, that are ready to die:
for I have not found thy works perfect before God.... Revelation 3:3KJV”

Their works were not perfect before God. Contrary to the preachers of these days,
Jesus didn’t say that works are not important because of faith. He told the Church
at Sardis, “Your works are not perfect before God”
Many had defiled their garments of righteousness by their way of life and hence
were not worthy
“Thou hast a few names even in Sardis which have not defiled their garments;
and they shall walk with me in white: for they are worthy.... Revelation
3:4KJV”
Are you worthy? Apparently, contrary to the extreme Grace preachers, Works of
faith are extremely important.
It’s the same thing that James reiterated when he said,
“But do you want to know, O foolish man, that faith without works
is dead?....James 2:20KJV”
James says, its only a foolish Christian who will think that works is not important
because of faith. They go hand in hand,
“For as the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without works is dead also”
The message of a man truly sent from God will always measure up to His Word.
Does the message of those preachers measure up to the Words of Jesus that He
instructed John to write to the seven churches? You be the judge. Don’t follow
blind guides to lead you to hell.
Grace doesn’t mean unrighteousness is acceptable. Grace means empowerment for
righteousness. God bless you!
