'Book of Daniel’
Brethren Overcame Satan
Rev 12:11 And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony; and they loved not their lives unto the death.
Most new converts who had suffered much from pains and starvation as war victims, were grateful for being saved, healed and nourished by God.
With a joyful and expectant heart, many will accept the gospel and join Christians to rescue and care for the war torn victims. When they too experience God's miraculous healings and provisions, they will be fervent in rescuing and saving war victims.
With their strong faith and love for lost souls, it won't be long before God baptized them with the Holy Spirit of Truth.
Truth Revealed
John 16:13-14 "However, when He, the Spirit of truth, has come, He will guide you into all truth; for He will not speak on His own authority, but whatever He hears He will speak; and He will tell you things to come."
God gives His faithful servants the Spirit of truth to teach and guide them into the understanding and truth of His love, words, will, promises and end-time signs and events.
God's Perfect Love
When a new convert understands the truth of His great love, he will willingly and joyfully offer himself to serve and please Him for he knows:-
1. Father's Undying Love
Rom 5:8-10 But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us.
2. Jesus' Sacrificial Love
Phi 2:5,8 Let this mind be in you which was also in Christ Jesus... And being found in appearance as a man, He humbled Himself and became obedient to the point of death, even the death of the cross.
a) Jesus suffered great anguish on the cross for the propitiation of our sins, freeing us from damnation.
1 John 3:16. By this we know love, because He laid down His life for us. And we also ought to lay down our lives for the brethren.
b) Jesus took away our Fear of Death
Heb 2:14-15 Forasmuch then as the children are partakers of flesh and blood, he also himself likewise took part of the same; that through death he might destroy him that had the power of death, that is, the devil; and deliver them who through fear of death were all their lifetime subject to bondage.
After His death on the cross, He destroyed Satan and set every Christian free from the fear of death.
c) Jesus Tasted Death
Heb 2:9 But we see Jesus, who was made a little lower than the angels, for the suffering of death crowned with glory and honor, that He, by the grace of God, might taste death for everyone.
He took upon Himself to taste death so that all faithful Christian will not taste nor suffer at death.
3. Love of God within Us
2 The 3:5 Now may the Lord direct your hearts into the love of God and into the patience of Christ.
When the love of God is perfected in our hearts, we will be able to sacrifice our lives for the salvation and benefits of our brethren.
1 John 2:4-5 He who says, “I know Him,” and does not keep His commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in him. But whoever keeps His word, truly the love of God is perfected in him. By this we know that we are in Him.
they loved not their lives unto the death.
Rom 8:9b-11. Now if anyone does not have the Spirit of Christ, he is not His. And if Christ is in you, the body is dead because of sin, but the Spirit is life because of righteousness. But if the Spirit of Him who raised Jesus from the dead dwells in you, He who raised Christ from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies through His Spirit who dwells in you.
When a Christian loves God more than the world and himself, then our Lord will baptized him with the Spirit of truth and also with the Spirit of Christ (baptism with fire).
Paul and Stephen are examples of those baptized with fire.
Gal 2:20 I have been crucified with Christ; it is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me; and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave Himself for me.
