And many, and many, and many, and many, and many and many a man. As many, as many, as many, as many, as many. Once again, we welcome you to the remnant voice. It became necessary for us to bring this service to the Body of Christ across the nations of the world, in view of the critical nature of where we stand in the framework of activities. In the same time, there is an emphasis of the Kingdom that must come to the Body of Christ to prepare us for this season and for this age. I like you to take a moment and like and share also so that other people can guard around for us to embark upon this adventure in the world of God. In our last session, we began by trying to introduce the concept of the world of righteousness, and in the concept of the Word of Righteousness, we are drawn to the scripture in the Book of Hebrews, chapter five that gives us an insight into some matters that we must be grounded in. In Hebrews chapter five is number twelve. The Bible says, for when for the time he ought to be teachers, you have need that one teach you again, which be the first principles of the oracles of God, And have become such as have need of milk, and not of strong milk meat. For everyone that used milk is unskillful in the world of righteousness, for he is a babe. But strong meat belonged to them that are full age, even those who, by reason of You have exercised their senses to discern both good and evil. So this is what we can get from these three verses of scripture. That babes feed on milk, and the definition of milk, according to the scripture, are the first principles of the oracles of God. Number two, the matured which the scripture calls full of age. They are those who have exercised their senses to discern both good and evil. This one requires strong meat. And the definition of strong meat in the scripture is the word of righteousness. So the word of righteousness, according to the scripture, is strong meat. Is the kind of food that nature Christians should eat. Is the kind of meal that should be responsible for the development of believers that I'm migrating towards maturity. Such people as understand the Kingdom of God and are willing to sacrifice to see the will of God done. There are many is strong meat, and this strong meat is a word of righteousness. I was trying to define what the word of righteousness really means, and I said that the word of righteousness conveys the thought God's dispensational and governmental dealings with his people. The message of righteousness in this context reveals an arrangement to bring every believer to the place of accountability. So we will see the accountability structure that God has put in place in the coming age. First of all, I would like to show us a few things which will aid us in understanding why we are going to be accountable to God. In the Book of Acts, chapter number seventeen. If you have your Bible, I'd like you to turn with me Acts chapter seventeen A, beginning from verse twenty nine to verse thirty one, The Bible says, for as much then, as we are the offspring of God, we ought not to think that the god Head is like onto gold or silver or stone, grieven by art and man's device. And the times of this ignorance God winked at, but now commanded all men everywhere to repent. Why there's thirty one because He has appointed a day in which he will judge the world in righteousness. By that man whom He has ordained, whereof he has given assurance on to all men that he had raised him from the dead. The Bible says he would judge the world by righteousness, and that's why it's called the Word of righteousness. The message concerning this righteousness, which is the message that has to do with our accountability, because this accountability will be according to righteousness. And and that's what I want to draw our attention to. And for as long as God will have us a ride on this frequency, you would see that the issue of accountability to God in the coming age is a very deep matter in scriptures, even though it is almost completely ignored by the average minister of the Gospel. According to this accountability theory, you cannot be successful in time because there's going to be an evaluation of us stewardship from the lens of God. Now I like to correct a few misconceptions quickly. It will help us comprehend the issue of this accountability, of which I speak in more details in Collosians Chapter one. In Collosians Chapter one, verse number sixteen, and verse seventeen, the Bible says, for by him were all things created that are in heaven and that are in earth and invincible, whether the betrothed, or dominions, or principalities or powers. All things were created by him and for him. Please take note, All things were created by him and for him, And he is before all things, and by him all things consist. All things were created by him, and all things were created for him. He is before all things, and by him all things consist. First scripture. Second scripture is in the Book of Second Dimity, Chapter one, verse nine. Everything was created by him. Everything was created for him. So the purpose of anything will be determined by him. The purpose of anything will be determined by him, and he is the one that will be able to evaluate if a particular thing of passing lived up to his expectations according to purpose. This is the reason for accountability. Because we have been given resources, we have been given gifts, will be given anointings that are expected to be stewarded according to his purpose. It is very easy for someone to think that he is living for himself. The salvation was so that you could come and enjoy. You could come and you know, have a good life. You are mistaken. Just in case you have a good life. That is incidental, but all things were created by him and for him. In the Book of Second Timut Second Timothy, chapter one, verse number nine, the Bible says, who has saved us and called us with an holy calling, not according to our works, but according to his own purpose and grace which has given us in Christ before the world began. So this scripture says that he saved us according to his purpose. He did not save us according to our ideas. He saved us there was purpose in view. When salvation was granted us, there was purpose in view. And the purpose is his purpose. You see, this thing called life was created by him and created for him. It was created for his purpose. We were saved according to his purpose. And so everything is revolving around his purpose. Everything is revolving around his will, Everything is revolving around his calling. All right, Romans, chapter eight, verse twenty twenty eight. You will find the same kind of talk in Romance chapter eight, verse twenty eight. The Bible says, and we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, and to them that are the called according to his purpose, according to his purpose. So he is the reference for our existence, is the reference for our empowerment. He is the for the grace that we enjoy, and all of these are resources of generosity given onto us to accomplish his purpose. So he is the only one that can reveal whether or not we lived for his purpose or we lived for something else. And because of this, there is an accountability stage that is set up in the next age to evaluate the content of our life in this journey of pilgrimage. So that's the idea of the accountability principle that we find in scripture, and that accountability will not take place in time, it will take place beyond time. And there are so many scriptures that we were trying to bring to your notice in the last session to show us how that their accountability is not in this age, it is in the age to come. And so no one gets successful in time because the one that will come to evaluate our compliance to his purpose, our compliance to his will, has not yet set up his decks of accountability. Now, there were a few scriptures I was trying to bring to your knowledge, and we saw in the Book of Hebrews that it is appointed unto man wants to die and then judgment. So the next item on the agenda of the kingdom after death is judgment, is accountability. So that's the next item on their agenda, And in the next session, I'm going to show you scenarios in the entire scripture Old Testament, in New Testament teachings, scenarios where people were confronted with the need to account to God. And it doesn't matter whether you know that you are going to be accountable, whether you are informed, that doesn't change anything. I'm going to show you scenarios where men were brought to give account and you will see and feel the texture, feel the POWs of this seat of justice, this seat of evaluation, this seat of equity, this seat of judgment, to feel the pals of it. And this accountability that we're all going to be subjected to is supposed to inform the way we live life in time, because our life in time is a window the efforts onced the opportunity to invest in eternity. Remember we are saved according to His purpose. Remember we are called according to his purpose. Remember everything we do here is supposed to be according to the counsel of his will. And this is the reason why He will need to show up to evaluate our lives, whether it was in compliance with what he dreamed with what he anticipated, with what he expected, I still need to bring a few scriptures before our face so that we can consolidate our understanding of this accountability system that has been put in place. You are going to leave loose you. You can afford to be a fake minister of the Gospel, lying to people and doing all kinds of stuff when you are not rooted in the understanding of the fact that all of your actions are going to be evaluated on the table of accountability. It doesn't end in time. So when you see some people that are very disciplined, and they have ended names from people as wicked, as as unreasonable, as all of that, that discipline is a result of an understanding of the fact that we have received a kingdom that cannot be moved. God is not going to adjust the standards the expectations of his kingdom because of a beautiful preacher, because of a fine preacher, because of a popular man. The Bible says that we have received a kingdom that cannot be moved. So let us have grace, whereby we may serve God acceptably in reverence and in godly fear. Because our God is a consuming fire. Now the scripture recommends that we should receive grace so that we can serve God acceptably in reverence, in godly fear, because he is a consuming fire, and it's being a consuming fire is a revelation of one of the materials that He's gonna use to test our works. As we journey in the study, you will now discover that our works will be subjected to a few tests, one of which is the fire test. And it gives us a prescription, a very honest prescription on how our lives should be ordered, and how that if we do anything outside of the enabling grace to accomplish His divine purpose, if we do anything apart from his grace, if we do anything with their attendant reverence, without their attendant reverence and godly fear that is supposed to bring us into accurate alignment, they that thing will not have the capacity to strike a chord in the realm beyond time, and it's going to fill the test of fire. Now, I need to bring to our notice a few scriptures quickly, quickly, quickly, the Book of Luke, chapter nineteen. I want us to turn Luke chapter nineteen. Most preaching and teaching shows people time and life in this age, and many people do a lot of things that violate the principles of God in that for them to look like successful people in this age. Now that cannot preaching sets up a generation for doom, sets up a people for doom. And when we look at what we call ministry today, you will find that many people that are in the work of the ministry do not have the perspective of the accountability system of God as part of the things that can constrain them. So we have all kinds and all sorts of displays, all in the name of the Lord, as though we have the authority to force God to accept what we are doing. The Bible says we are called according to his purpose. And he who has conceived this purpose is the one that will sit in the seat of justice, in the seat of accountability, and demand that we give accounts to him that we reckon with him. Now, it's not supposed to be a threat. Is You're supposed to be a guideline that will help us to walk accurately. Now, as we study, we're going to see all the kind of things that our lives should consist of because of this emphasis, and you'll be able to order your life accurately, and you'll not be ashamed in the day that is to come. In the Book of Luke, chapter nineteen, beginning from verse number twelve. In Luke chapter nineteen, beginning from verse number twelve, the Bible says he said, therefore, a certain nobleman went into a fire country to receive from himself a kingdom and to return. And he called his ten servants and delivered unto them ten pounds, and said, unto them occupied till I come. But his citizens hated him and sent a message after him, saying, we will not have this man to reign over us. That means they're rejecting his government. And it came to pass that when he returned, having received the kingdom, then he commanded these servants to be called unto him, to whom he had given the money, that he might know how much every man had gained by treating. He returned and required accountability. That was something I gave you. How did you trade with it? How did you use it? How did you put it to work? The prophetic annointing I gave you? How did you trade with it? Did it become an instrument of merchandise? And you sold prophecies, you sold healings, you sold a consultation, sessions, you sold all kinds of stuff. So you used the grace of God that was given on to you freely as as a commodity to promote merchandise. He wants to know how we traded with the resources that He gave. Remember, everything has to do with his purpose because by him, and He was the one that created on so we're created by him, were created for him. And the Bible says that in him does all things consist. So nothing has a meaning other than the meaning that He gives a thing. And this is critical because we can deceive men that we are in sync with God. We can deceive our generation and they and pride ourselves, and men will actually fall for our deception and say, oh my God, these guys are great, these guys are good. But the one according to whose purpose we have been called, we cannot deceive him. There is no deception before him. He subjects our works to a quality test. And one of the instruments that we used to prove those works is fire. Fire is not emotional, The fire is not a friend. The fire is an instrument that tests the quality of our works. Of our stewardship upon the face of the earth. Amen, I still have a scripture to read to us in the Book of Luke, chapter twenty. Book of Luke, chapter twenty, I want to read from verse number nine. Then began he to speak to the people's parable. A certain man planted a vinyard and let it forth to horsbandmen, and went into a fire country for a long time. And at the season he sent a seven to the husbandman, that there should give him the fruit of the vineyard. But the husbandman beat him and sent him away empty. And again he sent another seventh, and they beat him also, and treated him shamefully, and sent away empty. These guys were giving a vineyar to tend. Now they are fighting anything that is demanding returns, demanding for them to open their books of trading, so that their profit can be known, the benefit that the initiative is bringing can be determined. And again he sent a tad, and they wounded him also and cast him out. And then the lord of the vineyard, then the lord, then the lord of the vineyard, What shall I do? I will send my beloveds, so it may be there will reverence him when they see him. But when the husbandmen saw him, the reason among themselves saying, this is the heir, come, let us kill him, that the inheritance might be ours. So they cast him out of the vineyard and killed him. What therefore shall the lord of the vineyard do to them? These workers have forgotten completely about accountability, and they have behaved in such a way that reveals that they are thinking that they can evade accountability. They are stewardship has not been accepted, and they are trying by all means. To do. Anything they can to escape the need to be accounted. Now, this is a portrait of the wrong way to leave. Most people that have not been guided by the truth of the world of God, they leave this way. And and they ministers of the Gospel that minister to them and try to hold them accountable so that they can be in life, they beat them off. Even when the voice of Jesus True, the Holy Ghost begins to attempt to constrain them. The team out. Now. So they are trying to evade any form of interference or any sound that will bring them to the consciousness of the fact that there will be some form of accountability. They are just postponing the day of accountability, because it cannot be escaped. This is critical, and I like you to take a moment to think about this. I like you to take a moment to ponder on this and reflect on your life, reflect on your ministry, reflect on your service in the Kingdom of God. If by any means you are not operating according to purpose, it doesn't matter what you do. What you do will lack the ability to strike a chord in the realm of God. Now I want to read finally something from my script. You know, I said that the word of righteousness conveys the thought of God's dispensational and governmental dealings with these people. God saves us by his grace and deals with us according to his righteousness. That's number two three. Once we have the assurance that we have saved by the grace of God, we need to take heed to the world of righteousness, receiving the Father's discipline onto holiness and submitting under His mighty hand. In our next lesson, I'm gonna show us if you things, and then we will do an analysis, an analysis of everything around our salvation and everything around the reward system of the Kingdom of God. Then we'll discover the difference between the realities around our salvation. As we do that analysis, then you will begin to gain access to the way people will be ranked in the Kingdom of God. Well, my time is out, and I want to salute us for spending time with us. Will still be live at this time tomorrow. I want you to invite others to come and join us because we are hoping to sustain these teachings every week as we come to you bringing the emphasis of the world of righteousness.
