The Secret of Christianity by Pastor Chris Oyakhilome

Everything that God is and all that He has made you can only be revealed to you by the Spirit. Sadly, there are people today who go to Church but you can tell they havent received the Holy Spirit. I wonder what in the world they are waiting for. Receiving the Holy Spirit is not optional for any child of God. When a Christ shows up at the rapture, it will take the Holy Spirit to get you out of here! You need to know this there is no Christianity without the Holy Spirit. Christianity without the Holy Spirit is a joke! Until you have received the Holy Spirit, you wont know anything about the Glory life. If you dont have the Holy Spirit, what you have is mere religion. Being filled with the Holy Spirit and having the consciousness of his glorious presence with you is the secret of Christianity. That is what makes us unique. The Bible says, you shall receive power after the Holy Ghost has come upon you (Acts 1:8). Do you want to see the power of God in your life? The Holy Ghost is the secret: He is the one to fly you on eagles wings and bring the glory of God into your life.

Forget the Past by Pastor Chris Oyakhilome

Saul, who was later known as Paul; one of the greatest Apostles ever, was a bitter persecutor of the Church. Acts 8:3 says, As for Saul, he made havoc of the Church, entering into every house, and hailing men and women, committed them to prison. This was the extent of Sauls desperation to execute the Christians; but when he encountered Jesus, his life took on a new course. After that, he completely let go of the past and never ever berated himself for persecuting the Church. He had the revelation of the new creation and as such knew that old things were passed away and all things had become new (2Corinthians5:17). Addressing the Philippians, in Philippians 3:13 (TLB), he said to them, forgetting the past and looking forward to what lies ahead. All through his ministry year, he talked about the Lord Jesus Christ as though he walked and dined with Him. Everything he knew about Christ was not after the flesh, rather it was by revelation, and thats why he could preach the gospel with all his being. And this may not have been achieved if he still held on to his past as a persecutor of the Church. He had the will to lay aside every negative weight of the past that threatened to hinder his ministry, and forged ahead with his new life in Christ. Just like this great apostle of Jesus Christ, let the new life occupy your thoughts and fill your mouth. Demonstrate the Lords will and His Word as you walk in the Spirit. Do not dwell on old things because once you come into Christ, they cease to exist. This is a new creation reality: that you have received the gift of righteousness; therefore, forget the past and forge ahead to your glorious future.
