 - the Father has life in Himself, so also the Son

John 5:26

The Son is the source of life.

Christ can give life because He Himself possess life. He not only has a part in giving it, He is the source of it.

This is another testimony to Jesus' deity, because only God has life in Himself.

Pray for spiritual leading and protection for all under your care

 *22/09/2024* *FOURTH SUNDAY SERVICE* TOPIC: *PRAYER* Text: Matthew 6: 9-13 OUTLINE OF A PRAYER GIVEN BY JESUS  7. Pray for spiritual leading and protection for all under your care. Matthew 6:13 We commit our futures to God when we ask for guidance away from temptation and the devices of the evil one. God does not tempt anyone, but Satan tempts as in order to cause the downfall of the followers of Christ. Put on full Armour of God.

"Let US make man in OUR image"II

 *05/02/2025* *MID WEEK SERVICE* THEME: *THE NATURE OF GOD* (Hebrew pl.'elohim) Text: Genesis 1:1,26 Deuteronomy 7:9 Isaiah 45:18 TOPIC: *FORM OF GOD* - All three are in Unity     *"Let US make man in OUR image" II Genesis 1:26 So God placed humankind as living symbols of Himself on earth to represent His reign. This interpretation fits well with the command that follows - to reign over all that God has made. *according to Our likeness:* This draws attention to the preceding figure of speech. Since God is Spirit according to John 4:24, there can be no "image" or "likeness" of Him in the normal sense of these words. Indeed, image-making was later strongly prohibited because of the clear ties that has with idolatry according to Exodus 20:4-6. We may not make images of God for He has already done so! We are His images; it is we who are in His likeness. This is the reason God values people so much. We are made to reflect His majesty on earth. *have dominio...

"Let US make man in OUR image"

 *02/02/2025* *THANKSGIVING SERVICE* THEME: *THE NATURE OF GOD* (Hebrew pl.'elohim) Text: Genesis 1:1,26 Deuteronomy 7:9 Isaiah 45:18 TOPIC: *FORM OF GOD* - All three are in Unity     *"Let US make man in OUR image". Genesis 1:26 *Let Us make* emphasizes the majesty of the speaker. Furthermore, the use of a plural for God allows for the later revelation of the Trinity. Genesis 11:7 Matthew 28:19 The *Us* cannot refer to the angels that are present with God because man is made in the image of God alone, not also that of the angels. *in Our image*: What is the image of God in man? The traditional view is that God's image is certain moral, ethical and intellectual abilities. A more recent view, based on Hebrew grammar and the knowledge of the ancient Middle East, interprets the phrase as meaning "Let us make man as our image" (the Hebrew preposition in this phrase can be translated as). In ancient times an emperor might command statues of himself to be placed i...
