This is a very vital message for every believer who wants to see Christ
on the last day. Today many Christians are CRUCIFYING Christ but they
don't know that they are doing so! Now what does it mean to crucify
Christ afresh? Let us read Heb 6:6 "If they shall fall away, to renew
them again unto repentance, seeing they crucify to themselves the Son of
God afresh, and put Him to an open shame" This passage has revealed to
us that when a Christian backslides and starts committing sins, he or
she is crucifying Christ afresh, putting Him to an open shame. And that
it is difficult to restore such a believer since he or she is outrightly
committing sins against Christ! Now, the issue is this, when a
Christian backslides and begins to sin against God, after having known
the truth, such a Christian is seen as crucifying Christ afresh! In a
nutshell, any sin a believer Commits he is crucifying Christ afresh.
To
crucify Him afresh means you are nailing Him again to the cross with
fresh pains even as He suffered before! Precisely speaking, any time a
believer, a worker in the Church, a minister of God Commits sin, he or
she is nailing Christ to the cross afresh, believe it or not! No matter
how Small the sin may be, it is seen as crucifying Christ afresh in the
Spirit. Plainly speaking, if you as a Christian decide to Commit
fornication or adultery, you are nailing or crucifying Christ afresh to
the cross! If you see any Christian woman dress indecently, wearing
trousers like men, or ladies with painted lips and fingers with
eyelashes singing in the choir, they are crucifying Christ afresh. When
you see preachers or pastors who refuse to preach the truth but
deceiving their members, what they are doing is tantamount to nailing
Christ afresh to the cross! When you see a Christian who has been in the
Church for a long time but refuse to repent, he is crucifying Christ
again to the cross. Note, if you see the pains Christ is receiving or
passing through as a result of the believers sins in the body, you will
fear to Commit sin in your life! I read a conversation between Christ
and a man in hell fire.
The man missed heaven because he outrightly
committed sins while he was alive as a Christian. In that encounter, the
Lord decided to bring him out of this terrible fire and asked him how
he felt now? The man said his body is peaceful now and he began to beg
the Lord not to throw him back to the fire again! The Lord then told him
that the pains you are feeling now inside fire, it is the same pains He
was feeling whenever you committed sin when you were alive! That is,
the Lord will feel an intense pain whenever a child of God commits sin.
This is a deep revelation for all heaven seekers! That is to say, for
you to make God happy, stay away from sins. Stop telling lies, dress
well, love your neighbours as you love yourself. Stop using attachments,
Stop bleaching your body, remove jewelries from your body which is the
temple of God. Preach the truth and live a holy life. Do you want to
please God and qualify for heaven, obey His word and keep His
commandments. Do you want to make God happy with you, separate yourself
from the world and from the fashions of this world. 2Cor 6:14-18.
Beloved, the judgement against Christians who have known the truth,
living in holiness but latter turned their back to Christ is a very
severe one! The Bible says it is better you have not known the truth
than after you have known the way of righteousness to turn away from the
holy way! Please examine yourself, is there any area in your life that
you are still crucifying Christ afresh? You can repent today.
The door
of mercy is still open. You can make amends today before it too late.
PRAYER POINT - O Lord, have mercy on me and open my eyes to see
anywhere I am crucifying or nailing you to the cross that I may repent
of it and obey your word. From today, i Stop crucifying you afresh in my
life. So help me Lord. Share this message to your neighbours. Thank
you.
