Lost and Found Series: THE MAN - The Gospel of Jesus Christ


I thank God that Adam was able to realize after eating the fruit that he is now lost, the glory is gone..He is now vulnerable, the image is gone, the likeness is gone., the position is gone, the man is lost!
Today the church is not respected because the man is not found in the church, the church no longer shows the image, the likeness of God. They can’t be distinguished from other ordinary churches. They are lost in this world, confused.

You find the Man you find God.
Find the man first before you can find the relationship.
Find the man first before you can find the money, before you can find that business.
Find the man first before you can seek wisdom, understanding from God.
Find the man before you can find the power.
Everything that God said it should be in this earth in the book of Genesis 1 he said it is good every time he said it. But after he created a man, he said it is very good.
After Man lost the image of God, man no longer sees God when they are looking at themselves, they saw hatred, competition and rivalry.

The likeness of God is the knowledge of God, the wisdom of God.

Adam was able to name all the animals that God brought to him and every animal’s name today is what Adam named it because they responded to the image, likeness of God. Creation responds to the image of God. When man’s eyes opened to sin, he hid himself, Adam hid the likeness of God, Adam hid the image of God. That’s why today we can’t tell if a person is a Christian because we can’t distinguish them from the world, the image of God is lost in the church today.

Going to church every Sunday doesn’t show the image of God, singing loud and dancing in the church doesn’t show the likeness of God. Wearing the best formal clothes doesn’t show the image of God. But you showing love, long suffering, patient, kindness, authority it shows God’s image.

The image of authority
The image of rulership
The image of power
The image that doesn’t bow to the standard of this world.
The likeness of God that calls things into existence out of nothing.
When man fell, he started showing the opposite side of the image of God.

Th image of fear
The image of doubt
The image of procrastination
The likeness of bitterness
The likeness of hatred.
When man fell, he started to know stopped knowing God and started to know evil, sin.


Put on the image of God.
Put on Christ Jesus.
1 Corinthians 15 verse 45-49
Ephesians 2 verse 14-18
He created in Himself one new man that’s why the man is found in Jesus Christ because he was created from Him.
Ephesians 4 verse 22-24
The old man is there but don’t put him on but put on the new man. This is the man that was created to live in true righteousness and holiness.
                                                                            
   CHRIST THE IMAGE OF GOD

You are created to show the image of God
To show the beauty of God.
To show the magnificent of God.
Show the likeness of God
Show the image of God!
Colossians 3 verse 1-17.

Believing in Jesus Christ - The Gospel of Jesus Christ

We believe by faith what we can see, feel, smell, touch and hear. We believe God by faith and everyone who received from God in the bible and in this generation is because they believed God. They believed in the Word of God. John 3:16 Those that believes in Him Jesus Christ, not Church, not Religion but Jesus Christ will Have an everlasting life. Pharisees believed in God the father but didn’t believe in Jesus Christ when He was among them in the Flesh, that’s why they couldn’t receive the everlasting life. Most of the time we hear God’s Word, fell his power, touch His presence, smell His aroma but still not believe in His Word. That’s why we have people giving thanks to ancestors because is what they believe. They don’t believe God can do it for me. When Mary the mother of Jesus Christ, asked servants at the wedding at Cana to follow Jesus’s instructions when the wine was finished. She wasn’t taking chances because she knew whom she has believed. Believe in Jesus...

What To Speak - The Gospel of Jesus Christ

When God is sending you or commanding you to say something to his people, he always tells you what to say. He gives you the scroll (His Word) like He would to the old testament prophets. He never sends you empty handed or without spoken Word. In Jeremiah 1: 7, He says “I have put my Words in your mouth”.  God has put the Word in your mouth, you have to let the Holy Spirit help you speak those Words with power. You can’t speak without the Holy Spirit helping you. In fact you can’t do anything without the Holy Spirit and I mean you can’t afford to do that without Him. The Holy spirit manifests the Word of God in us (John 16: 12-15) The Holy Spirit guides us and leads us. He declares God’s Word in us, through us to the whole world. Is not about us being seen but is about the Word of God being declared to the whole world. Jesus said, blessed are those who hear the Word of God and keep it. Now when you hear the Word of God believe it and speak it. Because if you speak the Wo...

Touched and Changed: What is Your Name?

After Jacob had wrestled with God, he said he won’t let Him until He blesses him. When God asked him a question, He doesn’t ask how much he wants, or about the blessings. Jacob has been blessed before and that’s what he is expecting because all his life he has learned to depend on blessings. But God says “What is Your name?” God says I know you have a lot going on, you give your tithe to the church, you come early to church, you clean the church, you sing on the worship, you are playing the band; but what is your name. Your name is what it is important at this moment. People defines us by what we have and possess, they define us by our situations, they will call you millionaire if you are rich. But God is not asking what people are saying who you are but what is your name? He changed Jacob’ name which means deceiver to Israel. This is where Israel was born, out of a man who was deceiver. When your name has changed you don’t need to go everywhere asking everyone what they think...
