Ephesians 4:4-5 There is one body, and one Spirit, even as ye are called in one hope of your calling; One Lord, one faith, one baptism,
I Corinthians 1:2-3 To the church of God which is at Corinth, to those who are sanctified in Christ Jesus, called to be saints, with all who in every place call on the name of Jesus Christ our Lord, both theirs and ours: Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
Besides having ONE SPIRIT, and baptized into ONE BODY, and having ONE HOPE, all believers worldwide are united by the fact that we serve ONE LORD.
The term Lord here is the Greek word, ‘Kurios’, and it denotes one SUPREME IN POWER OR AUTHORITY; it means OWNER; it means POSSESOR/DISPOSER; it means MASTER; it means KING; it means CONTROLLER.
Christianity is a kingdom; and to be born again is to be born into this kingdom which has ONE LORD. YOU ARE EITHER SUBJECTED TO THE LORDSHIP OF JESUS CHRIST OR YOU ARE NOT IN HIS KINGDOM AT ALL.
And if you are not in Jesus’ Kingdom then you are in the Kingdom of the devil. You must be in one of the two – for there is no middle ground. Which is why Colossians 1:14 says,
God has delivered us out of the power of darkness, and translated us into the kingdom of the Son of his love
Before we were translated into the kingdom of God, we were citizens of the kingdom of darkness – You were not in a neutral place.
This is what I am saying:
YOU ARE EITHER A CITIZEN OF THE KINGDOM OF GOD OR A CITIZEN OF THE KINGDOM OF DARKNESS; EITHER JESUS IS YOUR LORD, OR THE DEVIL IS. There is no middle ground, my friend; The choice is yours regardless. Selah!
GRACEFUL MORNING
