wages or free gift: the choice is yours

"for the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life through Christ Jesus our Lord." Romans 6:23(nlt)

we are all familiar with the term wages or salary, this is a fixed regular payment made either weekly, daily, monthly or even annually. this is usually paid by an employer to an employee.

every work done on the surface of the earth is been paid for by the employer, when children read their books and sit for an exam, they are paid with good grades. when you do a favour for someone, you receive a thank you at the end of the day. for every work done, a payment is made. when you are employed, you are paid at the end of the month or week as the case may be.

as it applies to the physical, so also is the spiritual...you work for God, he doesnt pay you wages, he gives you a free gift(eternal life through Jesus Christ) and thats the difference. a gift is given at any time, many-a-times when you do not deserve it or even ask for it. you dont have to pay for it because it comes in surprises.

Now the heart of the matter, what type of work are you engaged in? fornication, stealing, lying, adultery, murder(in all its form), cheating and you can name them all. whatever your natural police(conscience) arrests you for? my dear the wages will be received soon. the only thing is that one do not know how soon the wages(death) will be paid. the amazing thing is that many people weren't employed, they nominated themselves and were gladly employed.

What do you expect? Wages or Free gift? (WAGES_fixed regular payment, GIFT_given willingly to someone without payment).

I plead with you who are employed in the company called SIN, resign and be free from the wages to come which is death. don't just stay jobless, come and be employed in GOD's company and begin to enjoy the FREE GIFT which is eternal life. God hasn't given up on you, he just hate your company(SIN)...if you want to be a part of God's company, all that is needed is an application, no interview involved.

I love you all but God loves you more...

Aroma vs Odour

my sisters and I were discussing about the term "Angel" being used as a pet name. I said angel is typical to a woman, but she said a man is meant to be an angel. in the middle of the discussion we started to differentiate between "aroma" and "odour".

the term Aroma can be defined as a distinctive, typically pleasant smell. Terms like perfume and flavour can be used synonymously. Odour can also be defined simply as bad smell. Its been discovered that scent is always associated with aroma and smell with odour.

we began to discuss that every woman is meant to have an aroma that speaks, one that calls out to nations and generations unborn. A woman's aroma should be one that whenever anyone comes in contact with her, they wouldn't wanna leave her. Her presence should draw people close, young, old, men, women, adult and children. the aroma of a woman should be so strong that no matter your class, you would wanna get in contact with her.

We are all Gods signature, but how does it appeal to the eye of those beholding it? does it scent? does it call out to them? On the other hand do you smell? are you repulsive? A woman with an odour is she that no one wanna get close to, on first contact or subsequent ones, people around her have nothing good to say. People are discouraged by her life style and hence wouldnt want anyone to associate with her.

A woman with an aroma, when you see her, you evidently see the glory of God emanating from her. just as you would wanna sit close to someone that scents nice, so is it with a woman that has an aroma and vice versa.

If at some point in life you lost your aroma and all we can perceive is an ordour, you can have your aroma back, get in contact with a professional that specialises in bathing(Jesus Christ), he would take of the smelly garments and throw them away(Salvation) and then he would wash you clean, very clean(Purification) and he would fill you up with a new fragrance(Holy Spirit baptism) and sweet aroma is all we would percieve...it aint late now, get his contact and given him a call on YOUR KNEES.
