The true light in Jesus our Savior and Lord God

  “And the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not.” John 1:5

  The God’s chosen generation at the time of the exodus of the twelve tribes of Israel was the reason, the most memorized by almost all Christians of today, The Ten Commandments. Yes, for sure, because the Ten Commandments were not given to the Egyptians or other existing tribes during that time. From Mt. Sinai to His chosen generation during the exodus, again, these infallible words of God were given and should have been followed then, yet they failed. These tribes fell into idolatry and materialism in all forms, even then God has fulfilled His promise "land" that was indeed given to them.

     In this state of history, when God sees down all men on Earth, like His chosen generation the twelve tribes or “The House of Jacob”, fall short of His glory. Thereby, they need to repent, the gospel before the rejection of their Messiah. 
    The book of the gospel of John made another breath of testament from God for the story of the love of God for them and to all undeserving of His favor out of His mercy. God Sent His only begotten Son, which name Jesus as the revealed Word and as Creator in John 1:3..”without Him, was not any thing made that was made.”  Such intention of God of revealing the name in Hebrew transliteration of  “Iēsoús” or Jesus ("Yehoshua"/Jehoshua, contracted to "Joshua") which means "Yahweh saves" (or "Yahweh is salvation"). The focal significance of the name JESUS, which means The Savior or The Salvation, nothing more and nothing less. This truth leads us to properly call Jesus the Christ. Angel Gabriel further states in Luke Chapter 1 verses 32 to 33  “He shall be great, and shall be called the Son of the Highest: and the Lord God shall give unto him the throne of his father David: And he shall reign over the house of Jacob for ever; and of his kingdom there shall be no end.”  Suffice it to say from “the house of Jacob” which is the twelve tribes of Israel to the throne of David which was the line of the ancestors of the incarnate Lord Jesus came from and into “His Kingdom” at the culmination. Jesus was rejected. Another pronouncement by an Angel Gab to the shepherds at the time of His birth,  in Luke 2:11  says “For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Saviour, which is Christ the Lord.” For the entire twelve tribes of Jacob, Jesus was crucified. Truly, the darkness did not recognize Him.

      All messages spoken before the rejection of the house of Jacob that proceeded to the crucifixion of Jesus came to the redemption of the gentile nations which is for you and me. To the redemptive plan of God, to bear the name Jesus.  Started by Saint Paul, who was called an Apostle to Christians. His conversion at Damascus, where he received the audible call from the resurrected Lord Jesus Himself is the redemptive plan for the Gentile generation and reaching back again the Children of Israel, would become the Christ's Church.  In Acts 9:15 Jesus told Ananias …. But the Lord said unto him, “Go thy way: for he is a chosen vessel unto me, to bear my name before the Gentiles, and kings, and the children of Israel:”  These words of our Lord Jesus were made so many blessings for the gentile sinners or the entire gentile world to see how God is good every day. And, not just for the gentile sinners, but again into the house of Jacob or children of Israel. In John 10:16 foretold this truth about us (Gentiles) and our Lord Jesus said …”And other sheep I have, which are not of this fold: them also I must bring, and they shall hear my voice; and there shall be one fold, and one shepherd.”  This means good news for all non-Jews. This is indeed the great light given to us now of His Name “Jesus” for the house of Jacob and the “Christ” for all the men and women of the world today to be called Christians first in Antioch.

    Thus, another message of the right gospel of today has been given after Jesus was raised from the dead and won the eternal death, and paid all our Sin and sins away. The message is not repentance first, then, believe. That is not very good news. Yes, the true repentance would be the essence of the Holy Spirit's sanctifying work to believers to do the right thing in obedience to God's word all for His glory that was lost (Romans 3:23). The real and honest experience of "changing your mind" or repentance is the process of transforming your mind toward the Lordship of Christ every day(Romans 12:1-2) this indeed the real and honest repentance call by Saint Paul to his brethren or believers which is you and me. The lyrics of the song as the basis of repentance... as the false teachers say, go like this, "Lord Jesus, I have decided to follow you, no turning back, no turning back" is clearly the "prayer of trust" by believers and this is good for believers to do before His Lord. The sinners' professions believing in Jesus as Savior according to his or her state as sinners, likewise of believing  Jesus of what He had done at the cross, therefore shall call His name Jesus as the Savior and the Lord, are biblical. I heard it right to professions a front of me, every time I went village to village bringing the very Good News and heard them whispered saying..."Jesus, I believe I am a sinner cannot save my life in hell, so now, I believe you Jesus, that you have died on the cross for me, paid the penalty of my Sin, now I receive you Lord Jesus as my personal Savior and follow or obey you as my Lord..." Yes, that's for today is the right Gospel of the Good News for all the sinners to be saved from the penalty of Sin.  I believe, the presentation of this gospel of the Good News is urgent. This is true, because when you are in the harvest time, the workers in the harvest are bringing the harvests and the glory to the Master hastily. The Bible says in 2 Cor. 6:1-2 says…”We then, as workers together with him, beseech you also that ye receive not the grace of God in vain.(For he saith, I have heard thee in a time accepted, and in the day of salvation have I succoured thee: behold, now is the accepted time; behold, now is the day of salvation.)”

    This is a clear reminder for all of us as evangelizers (every believer), we need to recognize that the urgent need for all the sinners today is Jesus - The Savior, The Christ, The Messiah. So that when Jesus  resides at the time of believing His work at cross (Romans 5:8) the new believers' spirit shall obey the guidance of the Holy Spirit to the Lordship of Jesus into their lives, the Holy Spirit shall guide them throughout, until the day of the caught up or taken up John 14:1-3;1 Cor. 15:52; 1 Thess 4:13-18. Surely our Lord Jesus would come any time now, Revelation 22:20. Are you ready?

    To all our beloved witnesses of the Gospel of the Good News. Are you obedient enough to obey?, as evangelizers/believers doing the last command of our Lord Jesus? In Matthew 28:18-20 Jesus told His disciples to “Go” (as we go God equipped us His authority and power)… to go is to find the lost near you, it means to say moving or a movement of all believers to bring the Good News (the message of the cross which is the death and resurrection) (not the message of repentance for the sinners to do). The message of the cross 1 Cor. 1:18 "For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is the power of God." All sinners; believing Jesus as Savior can now have eternal life. By then, at this instance begin to walk upon the Lordship of Jesus.

     The light of this truth manifests, when a sinner believes Jesus’ righteous work on the cross 2000 years ago, all the problem of Sin and sins rolled away. The death or eternal punishment in hell or the lake of fire is finished or done once and for all and no more condemnation for those who are in Christ (Romans 8:1). Then at that event salvation of souls received and done, the sinner becomes born again in the Spirit (John 3:3), already obeyed or already done the Father’s Will in his or her life (Matthew 7:21) and like a child, he or she just received the gift of salvation which the eternal life a promise of life everlasting to all who believe (John 3:16:Romans 6:23,Ephesians 2:8-9, Ephesians 1:13-14). At the same event of time,  the Jesus Christ takes care over His children/believers as Lord and The Head of His children, His Body-the Church. It is like the shepherd takes care the sheeps in the fold. The Holy Spirit shall give them utterance to call Jesus “ABBA FATHER” (Romans 8:15).

   Our main text speaks that Jesus is the Light of the World. He came into this world as a light shining in darkness, and the darkness rejected Him. And, brought the light to the undeserving(Gentile sinners) for His favor (grace); showing us the love of the Father, and changing our world(Gentile Nation) forever by His so amazing grace out of His mercy.

   The Word (Jesus) gave His life to everything that was created (Jews and Gentiles), and His life brought light to everyone (Jews and Gentiles). Then, going to the lost is movement, we mean total mobilization of believers. The making of disciples is done only to those believers in a single event of the time of salvation, which the first step for first time believers is to go, share his or her faith without fear and bless other people near him or her. God wants us to be fully alive in the light of His love (John 3:16) to give the lost, His life eternal, so, rich and poor could avail, as they believe the Lord Jesus as the Savior of their lives.

    Jesus said, “I am the way, the truth, and the life.” Jesus is the way, that we might be saved; the truth, that we might be sure; and the life, that we might be satisfied! This means, that when you open your heart to Jesus, His life will enter fully into you and bring the revelation of God’s love and light throughout your whole world – changing everything. Saving you; securing you; and satisfying you!

   So now for this foregoing truth, to all my  beloved evangelize-rs/believers, let us go from village to village for the lost, after the sinners saved by the grace of the Savior and Lord Jesus, shall obey His Lordship as the new creations of God (2 Cor. 5:17). Now therefore, the correct and biblical rendition in our profession of Jesus Christ is the  SAVIOR to sinners, the LORD to believers who are saved, happening at the single event of time of decision or salvation.
    
   Praise the name of the Jesus Christ -our Savior and the Lord God!Amen.
