HONOUR THE SON
David Abankwah
READ: Revelation 5:1-10
For the Father judges no one but has committed all judgment to the Son, that ALL SHOULD HONOR THE SON just as they honor the Father. He who does not honor the Son does not honor the Father who sent Him.
-John 5:22-23 | NKJV
We have heard that the Antichrist is coming but the Antichrist is already here with us because he is a spirit. The spirit of Antichrist works hand-in-hand with Satan who is the Father of all lies. As God the Father has entrusted his judgement to the son, Satan has also entrusted his authority, seat, and power to the spirit of Antichrist (Revelation 13:2). The major arsenal of the Antichrist is deceit. The first thing Jesus Christ told us to take heed of, as one of the signs of the end time was deceit (Matthew 24:3). Anyone who denies God the Father is an Antichrist. Anyone who denies God the Son is also an Antichrist (1 John 2:22-23). You can’t honour One and dishonour the other.
Deceit is the belief that truth is false and falsehood is rather the truth. Today, there are information circulating that, Jesus Christ is not the Messiah. There are so many religions in the system that claim they are worshipping God through their religious leaders but those religions are false and they are deceiving people as well. To worship God, you have to pass through Jesus Christ, His Son (John 14:6). If you know the Creator, you should also know the One through Him all things were made (John 1:3). If you know the Father, you should also know the Son. If you honour God the Father, you must honour His Son too, for they are ONE and yet separate spiritual beings.
I have lived with people for quite a time.
I experienced that, maltreating their children creates a pick-up bone with their parents as well. To stay peacefully with them without creating any problems, you must honour their children as you honour the parents. In your workplace, you dishonour your boss, if you dishonour anyone he has placed above you. When you start dishonouring your supervisor or manager is the period you are calling for a sack. If you hate Jesus Christ, you hate God the Father too. If you treat Jesus Christ with contempt, you also treat God the Father with contempt too, because the Father and the Son are one (John 10:30).
Many people who will stand in the day of judgement will be surprised to see Jesus Christ sitting on the judgemental seat of God (2 Corinthians 5:10). On the day of the Lord, you will not see God the Father,
rather, you will see Jesus Christ (Matthew 24:30-31). Truth be told, Jesus Christ is God (John 14:9; 1 Timothy 3:16; Revelation 1:8). Don’t follow any religious leader who claims to be a Messiah and say I am worshipping God. Those who doubt Jesus Christ as the Messiah (Revelation 21:8) will have their part in the lake of fire or the second death. What is more difficult: To believe in Jesus Christ and be saved or to dishonour Him and burn in the lake of fire?
