  What is an opinion? a person's understandings or comments on life .in respect to topics,observations,experiences,knowledge and all informations,It might even give out who you are if not hiding something about self. If life in the bible is about faith,grace or love the life of Christ Jesus should not have happen, because Moses who came from Abraham and Elijah who came from Moses went through that

  I agree with the Apostle for this timely homily, but my treatise will use a little different approach.
  
  A Christian would be salvation and kingdom focused if only he daily surrenders his will moment by moment to Christ. The Christ-centered life is a life of a will surrendered to Christ before, during, and after temptation whether in omission, commission, or in faith.
  
  "I am the true vine, and my Father is the husbandman. Every branch in me that beareth not fruit he taketh away: and every branch that beareth fruit, he purgeth it, that it may bring forth more fruit. Now ye are clean through the word which I have spoken unto you. Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, except it abide in the vine; no more can ye, except ye abide in me. I am the vine, ye are the branches: He that abideth in me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit: for without me ye can do nothing. If a man abide not in me, he is cast forth as a branch, and is withered; and men gather them, and cast them into the fire, and they are burned." John 15:1-6.
  
  Although he has always been God, Jesus took no chances with temptation or sin whether in omission, commission, or in faith. He studied the Scriptures, followed His Father's charge, and depended on His Father to speak through him and bear witness to his word and works that He had sent Him. See John Chapter 8. We will never win the battle of the will without Christ. He is the only one who can dispel the demons attached to the human will.
  
  It is important that we be saved now in Christ! (Acts 4:12). It is only then that God's Spirit can use us in missions. Instead of the Christian going about to establish his own righteousness which is of the Law, works, and teaching others to do so, he accepts the righteousness which is of God in Christ which the Holy Spirit applies to the believer's account (Justification). And when he, the Christian, studies God's word, and lives the Christ-like life daily, the Holy Spirit applies the holiness of Christ to his account (sanctification).
  The Christian is now "saved to serve" others.
  
  "And be found in him, not having mine own righteousness, which is of the law, but that which is through the faith of Christ, the righteousness which is of God by faith." Philippians 3:9.
  
  "Brethren, my heart's desire and prayer to God for Israel is, that they might be saved. For I bear them record that they have a zeal of God, but not according to knowledge. For they being ignorant of God's righteousness, and going about to establish their own righteousness, have not submitted themselves unto the righteousness of God. For Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to every one that believeth." Romans 10:1-4.
  
  The strength of character of Christ was his surrendered will of his Royal and Judicial Rights to his Father. While here on earth, He obeyed his Father's commandments as a Son.
  We are charged to do the same, too.
  
  "If ye keep my commandments, ye shall abide in my love; even as I have kept my Father's commandments, and abide in his love." John 15:10.
  
  Christ has other sheep outside his church who need the ministry of reconciliation (at-one-ment with God).
  
  "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." John 10:16.
  
  
  
  
  "And all things are of God, who hath reconciled us to himself by Jesus Christ, and hath given to us the ministry of reconciliation; To wit, that God was in Christ, reconciling the world unto himself, not imputing their trespasses unto them; and hath committed unto us the word of reconciliation." 2 Corinthians 15:18-19.

  Good advice but the real problem is from the pulpit. the pastors are too much prosperity sermon conscious. All the preachings are prosperity here, prosperity there and about 'giving' for prosperity and blessings. What then do you expect from the congregaton.
