A life of "certainty" and "trust" in Christ is a better life

The reason the Christian life is a better life is because you have Christ taking care of, "you". You are certain in your heart because Christ directs your steps and gives you peace about your actions and conduct. You are certain in your heart with joy and gladness because the Word of Truth from the Bible is confirmed in your life. The clear conscience by the Grace of God builds this confidence in Christ. No more condemnation from sin. No more agony of living a double life or living a life right in your own eyes. The heart is made holy, clean, and washed by your personal faith in what Christ did on the cross of Calvary. His power and character comes into your soul by faith and trust. By staying on God's side of life (right in His eyes) you can be happy and contented with a contentment the world can never offer. You are blessed and happy because of Christ. The Spirit of God is united with your spirit and you are happy in Jesus. A happiness never known before in life that comes from clean Christian living. This life that is a better life comes from the person of Christ. It is a better life because God takes those who were lost and without hope and gives them hope and security. What a fellowship! What a joy! He has made me glad and happy! He has blessed this writer; this writer's marriage: and this writer's ministry. Makes me want to go and have a picnic!

Overcome the dangers of life with Christ

Children of God are blessed with a consciousness to the presence of Christ. Belief and trust in Christ gives children of God an assurance they are taken care of through every condition in life. Children of God also face dangers in this life. They must be cautious about worldly things...as  they walk with Christ.

The Devil still lurks to destroy the child of God's walk with Christ. The world we live in... is in total opposition to the life of a believer in Christ. The world accepts disobedient conduct such as drinking, drug use, gambling, lying thats OK, etc. The world says its OK, we're only human. The Bible says to, "Walk in the Spirit not in the flesh". The reason for walking in the Spirit is to keep your heart and life in harmony with the presence of Christ. Without compromise.

Compromise is dangerous. Compromise to the world is even more dangerous. Compromise to temptation is dangerous. The world we live in can "destroy" the walk of a believer as it subtly teaches compromise to the point that the child of God "throws in the towel" and gives into the worldly way of thinking. The Devil wants the marriages to be wrecked. The world hates the light and loves darkness. Without truth the world can teach a lie and some will believe it.

Don't be deceived. The world, the flesh, and the Devil are out to tear down and destroy the child of God. The world hates the child of God. Opposition against the truth will never cease. Love not the world. Don't be conformed to the world. This is where the test comes in. It's called the trying of your faith or going through the fire. Recognize the dangers caused from worldly opposition. Trust the Lord for everything in life. Keep your heart clean and holy. Walk in the Spirit...not in the flesh. The world cannot harm you if you depend on Christ. The Devil has to flee if you depend on Christ. Truth prevails as opposition diminishes. Glory!

The witness in your heart will keep you from faltering. A child of God lacks nothing concerning the dangers they encounter. Do not deviate from the truth. If you do your life will go out of order and the world can creep in. Your association with Christian people can change. Dangers multiply and then comes sin. When sin is found condemnation comes upon the human soul. Consciousness to peace found in the person of Christ...becomes misery. The joy that comes from Christ is lost and contentment is nowhere be found.

Keep yourself pure. Avoid the heaviness and condemnation that comes from sin. Stay steady and right in the eyes of God. Avoid the dangers of the world. When tempted turn to Jesus. Keep the flesh in subjection to a life of obedience found only in Christ. No compromise. When in doubt about something...be safe. Don't do it unless God permit. Husbands love your wives. Wives love your husbands. Marriage is honorable in the eyes of God. Christians are overcomers. Christians are more than conquerors. Christians are winners! Glory! The gates of hell "cannot" prevail. Why? Christ is your Saviour.

Before Holy Hubert died (a lesson on marriage)...from Britthaven nursing Home

A dear Brother of mine by the name of Joel Lunsford visited Brother Lindsey in Raliegh, N.C. before Brother Lindsey passed. The fellowship and communion in the Spirit was told to this writer to be... beautiful and God inspired.

Joel's visit with Brother Lindsey was accompanied with his wife to be, Joanne who shares the beauties of marriage at this present hour with Brother Joel! Holy Hubert Lindsey always held a special place in his heart for all women. He loved his wife Phoebe more than anything on this planet! Joel informed me that Brother Lindsey "lit up" when his soon to be wife held hands and conversed with Brother Lindsey.

Before the nice visit ended Joel asked Brother Lindsey for some good Christian advice pertaining to a soon to be,"marriage" with Joanne. Holy Hubert stated boldly from his bedridden condition with a pure heart full of love, " Tell your wife that you love her everyday... and kiss her often!"

Many years later (today!) Joel and I analyzed that prophetic statement given by Brother Lindsey from Britthaven nursing home! How beautifully it has been remembered and cherished! How true that statement is! How Biblical that God given statement is in the beauties of God's Grace Covenant we live in today!

Why?

Here's Why!

Eph 5:25-27...Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church, and gave himself for it; That he might sanctify and cleanse it with the washing of water by the word, That he might present it to himself a glorious church, not having spot, or wrinkle, or any such thing; but that it should be holy and without blemish.

Loving your wife like Christ loved the Church is only a blessing of the Great Grace Covenant we "now" have in the Church, the body of Christ! This love we Christians have for our wives is a treasure that has never been before... in the history of humanity. Even Jewish Law permitted man to divorce...but not Christianity! Why? The Christian marriage is based on husband's loving their wives like Christ loved the Church! The husband's love for the wife, is a treasure close to the love we have for God Almighty. Husband's (in the scope of love) give your "all" to your wives. Let your wives know that you love them daily! Kiss them often!

This writer thankfully treasures Brother Lindsey's sound Christian advice for the sanctity of marriage. I also appreciate joel sharing this with me just an hour ago. I respect Brother Lindsey's Apostleship and carry on that ministry today bringing honor to Christ! I also honor the truth of God's Word and the fellowship I have with my Brothers! Glory to the Christ that makes husbands the men they ought to be! By the way God "restored" this writers marriage! It's a miracle in itself! This writer thanks God for his restored marriage every day of his Christian life. I also tell my wife I love her! I need to kiss her more often. I'm glad Joel brought this to my attention today! Glory!

God Bless you all! Thank you for coming to the Churches on Trial where we stand for truth and holy living. May the Lord bless all your marriages!
