G3 EXPERIENCE: The Reason For Our Justification.

Must Read For Every KINGDOM Aspirant

Study: Matthew 26:36-39, John 19:13,16-18,30 and 34.

By the grace of God and His help through the Holy Spirit, we shall be looking at the significants of Gethsemane, Gabbatha and Golgotha in respect to our salvation, using the quoted verses. This week being Easter week, marked 2025 years Christ went through what I called "G3 experience" to bring us salvation. I wish to bring the article your way to remind you the reason for the season, I would have loved to break it in series so that we can be able to go deeper in this study, but if I do, you might see some part and miss some, to avoid that, I will try to summarise each point as brief as possible, Hopefully, by the grace of God soon I will create a blog which will make it easy to reach such series in a glance, but before then let us see how much we can compress this. firstly we shall be looking at.

1. GETHSEMANE:
36 Then Jesus came with them to a place called Gethsemane, and said to the disciples, “Sit here while I go and pray over there.” 37 And He took with Him Peter and the two sons of Zebedee, and He began to be sorrowful and deeply distressed. 38 Then He said to them, “My soul is exceedingly sorrowful, even to death. Stay here and watch with Me.” 39 He went a little farther and fell on His face, and prayed, saying, “O My Father, if it is possible, let this cup pass from Me; nevertheless, not as I will, but as You will. ” (Matthew 26:36-39) in summary we can say that Gethsemane is a place Jesus prepared himself to face Gabbatha and Golgotha. More we can still say are that Gethsemane is

I. Place of separation: where one get separated from pleasures, friends, families and opinions of people who use to matter before, separation from sentiments and religious prejudice to face a critical decision.

ii. Place of sorrow and deep distress: here the reality of the burden of sin was clear before Him. Sin is a heavy burden that goes with great sorrow and distress, it's guilt brings wound to the heart and pains to the marrow, sin denies a man of his right and position. On Facebook few days back, I saw one HOD being humiliated by his female student because he fall to her trap, then it came to me that this is the extent a burden of sin can go to bring a man low from his status. The disgrace of sin is too shameful to pass through, Jesus was faced real with this burden at Gethsemane.

iii. Gethsemane is a place of decision: Jesus after looking at what will befall Him, He was lost in deep thought, "this sin is not mine but sins of my enemies, can I still take this or should I leave it for them to face it?" He was in deep thought that the sweat that comes from his body was as thick as blood, At a time he cried out "father let this cup pass over me" in other words, Let those who committed this sin face the consequences. Thankgod He remembered our weaknesses and what will befall us if He should go by that decision. Then He made up His mind and said "Let your will be done" what is the will of the Father? That Jesus should do it for us seeing we can't, then He chose to do it Just to save us from facing the pains.

iv. It is a place of total submission to God's will, where the will of the Father supersedes every other alternative, and manuplation, is either God's will or nothing else. " Father let your will be done"

v. It is a place of prayer: this kind of pray is the one where the heart of man relates with the heart of God, to agree to the stand and choice of God irrespective of mans wish.

Wait a bit!! Is there any reason you may need to visit Gethsemane today? Are you Loaded with a burden of sin, hatred, strife, greed, on forgiveness, are you loaded with burdens of habits and addiction? Please don't let today pass you without you paying Gethsemane a visit, separate from your cult or gang members, separate from that partner, pack from that brutal or hotel, visit Gethsemane today, let God see your mind made up to conform to His will, make a new decision and totally submit to the will of the Father, what is the will of the Father? "That you be conformed to the Image of God" Just have your your mind made up and let your spirit relate with the spirit of God.

2. GABBATHA:
"When Pilate therefore heard that saying, he brought Jesus out and sat down in the judgment seat in a place that is called The Pavement, but in Hebrew, Gabbatha."

God doesn't ignore sin, He punish it, He don't even forgive sin except another life went for it, the only alternative God left for dealing with sin is punishment "The wicked will not go unpunished" (Prov 11:21) at this time the Jews was under the Roman Government, headed by Emperor Caesar, the Roman system of governance has it that before a man is subjected to certain level of punishment, he must be tried and convicted by the law. The Pilate who was the judge, after trying Jesus confirmed that he was guiltless of the accusations labeled against him by the Jews. He has no ground to condemn the person of Jesus, but for Him to accomplish His mission, God must be appeased by seeing sin condemned and punished.

Jesus at the Gethsemane, remembered that He did nothing to deserve the condemnation of Gabbatha and punishment of Golgotha, but the issue was clear before Him, if He become Justified we become condemned, but if He subject Himself to condemnation then we receive Justification. He said "I better be Condemned that the world through me might be saved, than to be Justified and leave them with the Condemnation of sin" the mind of the Jews was instigated against Pilate and they issue a threat against him "Oga if you don't Condemn this man we will report you to Caesar that you have conspired with a man to overthrow Him as a King"

Pilate, out of fear but in aliment with God's plan to Justify Us, he condemned Jesus "Then he delivered Him to them to be crucified. Then they took Jesus and led Him away." (John 19:16) so we can conclude that Gabbatha is a place of condemnation. Jesus was finally condemned.

Good News: if you have really been to Gethsemane, Jesus will not let you come to Gabbatha, He expects us to trans load our sins to Him at Gethsemane so that He can give us the justification which is His right and then move on with our load of sin. so dear, you can't bear it just stop and trans load it to Jesus, remember, sin must be condemned, is either you trans load it or you still carry it and then face the condemnation. A day is coming when all who failed to do the trans loading at Gethsemane shall be dragged to Gabbatha to be condemned, at this time the judge will no longer be Pilate but God Himself. Bases of your condemnation will not even be on the sins you comited but that you refused the finished work of Christ ( Gethsemane trans loading) “He who believes in Him is not condemned; but he who does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God." (John 3:18)

GOLGOTHA
"And He, bearing His cross, went out to a place called the Place of a Skull, which is called in Hebrew, Golgotha, where they crucified Him" (JOHN 19: 17&18)

i. Golgotha is a place where the judgement pronounced at Gabbatha is carried out, Jesus at Gabbatha was convicted and sentenced to death by crucification because our sin was upon Him "But He was wounded for our transgressions, He was bruised for our iniquities; The chastisement for our peace was upon Him, And by His stripes we are healed." (Isaiah 53:5),

ii. Golgotha is a place of the Cross, suffering and persecution. Jesus was persecuted for sins He knew nothing about, He suffered for people who hated Him. What manner of man is this? And what kind of love can this be?

iii. Is a place to punish sin, and God has one punishment for sin "For the wages of sin is death," (Romans 6:23) "The soul who sins shall die." (Ezekiel 18:28) the judgement pronounced against sin is death and man must die for his sin but Jesus said " let me do the dying for you that you might live. At Golgotha He was rejected and deserted.

iv. Golgotha is a place of piercing and flow of the spot less blood. "But one of the soldiers pierced His side with a spear, and immediately blood and water came out." (Verse 34)This blood don't just flow in vain, it flows to bring charge (connection) between man and God, flows to purify the heart and justify the soul, it flows to bring us peace, maybe your family and relationships are into crisis, let this blood flow in and peace shall be established, this blood has capacity to stabilize a shattered economy, it can fix it all up for you, it brings healing to the sick body and strienght to the werry spirit. It restores the dead back to life.

v. Golgotha is a place of completion. There is nothing more you can do, He left nothing for you to do, everything was perfectly done every price paid. "So when Jesus had received the sour wine, He said, “It is finished!” And bowing His head, He gave up His spirit." (Verse30) your sin is finished, the punishment you deserved as a result of your transgression is finished, all your health issues are finished, financial crisis finished, unstable economy finished, all I mean all is finished.

Dear friend, I beg you to take this invitation to associate with "G3 experience" just make up your mind to visit Gethsemane, as long you do that you don't need to appear at Gabbatha Jesus alone takes care of it. Next place you should appear is Golgotha, not to be crucify but to receive the benefit of crucification (Justification), not to bear the cross but to drop your loads at the foot of cross and take your blessings, not to be pierced but to receive a washing by the flow of the blood, and consummation of your wholeness (Total Freedom)

You maybe asking where is the road to this G3 experience, or the location of Gethsemane and Golgotha? Don't worry I will show you the way! It is right there you are now. You don't need to travel your body but your spirit alone, "For with the heart one believes unto righteousness, and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation." ( Romans 10:10) you get it? right? Now get your heart willing and your mouth ready. Let your spirit connect in prayer with spirit of God, pray like Jesus prayed, "Father let your will be done no longer mine" this moment will bring a turn around to your life and destiny. Repeat this prayer.

Lord Jesus I thank you for going through G3 experience just for my sake, I deserved to die but you died for me, Lord in exchange, I give my heart to you possess me with your spirit, and do with me according to your pleasure, I surrender my pride, ego influence, position, certificate, on healthy relationships and affinities, my crisis, my issues, my life of prostitution, robbery, I disengage from every secret society. I cling to you take me and take everything about me. I deny all today to follow you. I deny my sentiments, prejudice, cultural and religious bo***ge. Come into my life Lord Jesus and be my Lord and personal saviour. Amen.

Congratulations if you have genuinely made that confession, welcome to G3 experience. Where your life will never remain the same again, please take note of this : " your sins has been totally forgiven but your life may not change automatically" you may still see yourself again struggling with that habit or living that life again, but don't worry, you only need to begin a relationship with the Holy Spirit who will systematically deal with all the issues in your life one at a time, so you need to continue in "G3 experience" reach me through the contacts bellow for further assistance.

IS SOLUDO FIGHTING AGAINST THE CHURCH?

8 years ago I coordinated a church establishment project, then I and my team rented full gospel band and staged it on a van, and played round the town on the major market day and finally stationed in center of the market.

I preached a wonderful sermon that day, at last one man who came from a far place was the only one that came to accept Christ, after that day no contact again. I invested much fund in that outreach with no tangible result.

I felt disappointed and devastated though my team members were feeling fulfilled that God did wonders because sicks were Heald and people were delivered, however I measure success of every gospel project by number of lives transformed based on tangible records. Though I observed that the only time people gave us undivided attention was during the music time. Many people around wished to give undivided attention but couldn't resist the distraction from customers which was the major thing that brought them to the market, so in reality we were the actual distraction.

In my devastation, I went back to drawing board with prayers and studies, I realised that our problem as believers is lack of flexibility and contemporisation Because we saw or read that this method was used in the time past and has results we believe we can always use it and have result.

Forgetting the differences between the people of those times, places and ours, then I began to review all the methods of evangelism, from morning crying, to street evangelism to market evangelism, preaching in the bus, to personal evangelism.

In all, the only method that stands the test of time among the old methods is personal evangelism. That was the only old method I adopted and recorded tangible results through that.

Christ have always used persecution to force the church into leaving the past to embrace the current program of God. It could sound crazy but then I started to teach my team against morning cry, road/street evangelism, market evangelism and so on, I told them time is coming when if the church refuse to leave those old methods God will use the Government to do so. And I think Governor Soludo is fulfilling that Divine Agenda the church must learn to be contemporal in our methods or God will have no other option than to always use circumstances to push us.

Many big churches that has the resources never considered the idea of visual church till COVID 19 was used to force them. Not only in Anambra State, if the church fail to sit up the Government will be used to do it the hard way including the issue of regulation that I've always been writing about.

I suggest to church Leaders to take the issue of CONTEXTUALISATION AND CONTEMPORISATION very serious in all their seminars and conferences. Not only in the evangelical methods, but also in the aspect of church revenue/ funding, practices, conducts, and approach to ecumenism, doctrines and dogmas. Very critical and essential, this factor if not conciously addressed will expose the Nigerian church to a serious existential threat.

Happy new month

The Lord shall do for you what you can't do for yourself

THE UNFORTUNATE RISE IN RELIGIOUS CRIMINALITY.
It could appear Charismatic without being Christocentric, if you can't spot the difference you are a potential victim.

Everything done with or in the name of Christ against the principles of Christ is ungodly, don't be decieved by religious acrobatics.

You don't Tithe for blessings, you tithe from blessings, if they still teach you otherwise avoid them, they are scammers, their only interest is what they get from you and not the blessings you can get from God.

Though as a stranger, they call you by your name and tell some secret things about you. Finally ask you to feed the orphans but you will bring the money to their church to help you feed the orphans on your behalf. Dear there is nothing spiritual about the whole thing it's just another religious scam format.

When I listen to people's story of how they have been scammed in a religious setting my heart bleeds. You really need to change your opinion about God in order not to fall victim to their formats.

Seek Jesus for whom he is not for what you get from him, strive to have a relationship with Christ not prosperity from a man of God. No man of God can give you spiritual prosperity.

Any deliverance or break through you will need to give some seed or offering to get will never come even after the giving, Miracles and deliverance from God is completely free and on the basis of God's grace and mercy through finished work if you can pay for it then it is no longer on bases of grace and mercy.

CHRIST IS STILL CHANGING LIVES AND HE CAN STILL BE TRUSTED. It is you that have made yourself their victim by your wrong drives.

Happy Sunday beloved.

Believers are becoming too demon centric that they unconsciously exalt demons over Christ in their heart while with their lips they still confess Christ to be above all.

Search your heart, his words in your lips can't carry his power if your lips is not in agreement with your heart.

Beloved of the Lord,
Your stepping into the last week of the month of May shall be a step into victory, this week the Lord shall lift you to the place of fulfillment.

May you end the month of May with gladness, Joy, peace and above all experience the Love of Christ which comes with grace and strength to continue in the coming months. Amen.
