WHO IS A BELIEVER?
The word 'believer' is a common English language meaning to accept a particular thing or information. A believer is also one who has decided that a particular matter in question is real and acceptable to him.
A believer will never question the project which he or she believes in. What makes you a believer is that you have accepted a matter with your body, your spirit and your soul is attached to it.
In Christian circle, a believer is one who has accepted the Lord Jesus Christ as his Lord and Saviour.
A believer believes in the Bible as the true word of God (Timothy 3:16). A believer believes in the Angels of god, ressurection and Holy Spirit (Act 23:8). A believer believes in the judgement throne of Lord and Hell fire (Revelation 20:11-12).
A believer having submitted his will to the Lord Jesus Christ is now led by the Spirit of God (Romans 8:14). the believer most importantly is a person who has been transformed by the word of God through believing in the word of God.
The bible is the word of God and a blueprint of the believer's marriage patterns, the believer's social patterns and commercial patterns. the believer's dress pattern is also designed by the bible (Exodus 28:2; 40: 13-14, proverbs 7:10; Zephaniah 1:8. The believer's family and community lifestyle is also designed by the word of God. The believer's reason and hope for trusting in the Lordship of Jesus Christ is that he wants to make Heaven. I want us to understand that there is a big gap between a believer and a Christian, while a christian is a follower of Jesus c=Christ, a believer is an extension of it; is having a further and extensive relationship and fellowship with Jesus Christ. A follower of Jesus Christ may not be a practical follower, that obeys the word of God, he/she may be following Jesus Christ because of miracle or bread he or she wants. (Many follows Jesus Christ for many reasons, they receive what they want yet they did not believe in Him John 6: 52-69).
A believer therefore is a true Christian born of water, blood of Jesus Christ and of the spirit of God, and he believes the truth. John 3: 11-15. 1 Timothy 4: 3-5
I pray that God in his mercy will draw our heart to him and we will see reason why we need to extend our hands of fellowship further
He will encounter us divinely this day and have compassion on us
Oh Lord, My god make me a true believer in Jesus name (AMEN)
