THE REALITY OF THE FORBIDDEN FRUIT

KIND OF WITNESS

KIND OF WITNESS

The only weapon a true believer of Christ has is the gospel of truth that must be in the name of Christ. It is only the Word of ASCAT that has the unlimited capacity to transform and translate a soul from the kingdom of darkness into the precious light of ASCAT. You cannot be witnessed without a kind, and the problem is not with being a witness, but with the kind, because even when you don’t witness, you are witnessing. What a witness does is to create awareness and stir up to prepare the minds of men to receive something that is anticipated and it will interest you to know that what the world is earnestly anticipating is the manifestation of the sons of ASCAT, because, through them, the knowledge of ASCAT will feel the whole earth.

Life has taught me a volume of lessons and my life is an epistle that would soon be read by the world and the truth is, this epistle has nothing to do with me, but it all about projecting Christ and His saving grace amidst the storms, preparing to launch me to the world like a storm that will cause a change that the world cannot recover from. My testimonies of ASCAT’s race have become my major instrument of witnessing for Christ, but I have also come to discover that they are two types of witnesses, namely:

1. The good or faithful witness and

2. The bad or unfaithful witness

The good witness will always administer hope even in hopeless situations, especially when it has to do with the lives of sinners, what propels a good witness for Christ is love. You cannot approach life with a judgmental mindset, no matter the state of the person you are to witness to. A good witness work with the mindset that Christ in his or her life is the hope of glory and since death could not limit Him, no matter how terrible the state of the sinner is, sin cannot limit their salvation if only your will witness the gospel of the saving grace to them.

Having established the ground to build the reality, permit me to state clearly that, “A witness is a REPORTER”, but the problem is not with you being a witness, but with the kind of report. By the grace of ASCAT, I will be painting a clear picture of a witness from scriptures, using the ten spies as a key example, but before I do that, I would want to start based on the kind of witness that, “A good witness administers life that shuts down the current of fear that torments, while a bad witness administers death, by creating fear and leaves lives in the state of hopelessness and you need to know that the fear of death is more terrible than death.”

The first question that the world will ask you if you are a witness for Christ is, “Who are you?” and the answer of this question is what reveals your identity and I tell you the truth, you cannot witness for Christ when you have not His identity and Christ’s identity does not mean you are Christ-like, it simply means you are Christ-likeness (son of ASCAT) and this is what guarantees your full right to operate with His authority (John 1: 12). Without the authority of ASCAT, you cannot GO and to GO is simply to obey ASCAT’s Order as captured in Matthew 28: 18, 19, “And Jesus came and spoke to them, saying “All authority has been given to Me in heaven and on earth. Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and the Holy Spirit.” The above scripture that presents “THE FATHER, THE SON and THE HOLY SPIRIT” simply defines absorbance into the LIFE (way), the office (TRUTH) and mission (WIN SOULS) and you can only win soul when you are mission-driven when you are not Spirit-led because the Holy Spirit is the Father in our hearts is the alert call to arise into occupying the office of Christ as sons of ASCAT to do His perfect will till He comes and this is what it means, “OCCUPY TILL I COME”.

The Evil One does not give authority, do not be deceived by his lies, because all authority is of ASCAT and has been given to you through Christ Jesus, but made available in the office of the son of ASCAT, therefore, as sons of ASCAT, we have ASCAT’s full authority. You only have one obligation to receive Jesus Christ and believe in His name, because the authority is the name of Jesus:

Luke 4: 6, 9: 1

And the Evil One said to Him, “All this authority I will give You, and their glory. For this has been delivered to me, and I give it to whomever I wish. Then He called His twelve disciples together and gave them power and authority over all demons, and to cure diseases.

When you are not a faithful witness for Christ, you are delivering authority to the Evil One. So it is not ASCAT who has given authority to the Evil One, but man. ASCAT took from the Evil One the authority that was given him when he was still pure in all his way until iniquity was found in him, but the man gave back the authority to him by going the contrary direction of ASCAT’s thought. The grace of ASCAT upon a man’s life is the power to resist the Evil One’s current destructive weapon called lies.

To conclude this chapter, I would love to ask you, “What is your report?”

Numbers 13: 1

“And the LORD spoke to Moses, saying, “Send men to spy out the land of Canaan which I am giving to the children of Israel; from each tribe of their fathers you shall send a man, every one a leader among them.”

We are like spies in this world of intense sin, but our reports will determine the result of our witnessing, but we will see the contrast in the report of the majority who were sent (called), with those who were sent (called and chosen), but went with the hope of ASCAT’s saving grace, even when their witnessing is contrary to the reality on the ground, they were truthful, because what they saw was not the vision conceived out of fear.

Numbers 13: 26- 29

Now they departed and came back to Moses and Aaron and all the congregation of the children of Israel in the wilderness of Paran at Kadesh, they BROUGHT BACK WORD to them and all the congregation and showed them and to all the land. Then they told him and said, “We went to the land where you sent us. It truly flows with milk and honey and this is its fruit. NEVERTHELESS, the people who dwell in the land are strong. The cities are fortified and very large, moreover, we SAW the descendants of Anak there. The Amalekites dwell in the land of the South; Hittite the Jebusites, the Amorites dwell in the mountains, and the Canaanites dwell by the sea and along the banks of the Jordan.

But the contrast:

Numbers 13: 30- 33

Then Caleb quieted the people before Moses, and said, “Let us go up at once and take possession, for we can overcome it. But the men who had gone up with him said, “We are not able to go up against the people, for they are stronger than we. And they gave the children of Israel a BAD REPORT of the land, which they had spied out, saying, “The land through which we have gone as spies is a land that devours its inhabitants, and all the people whom we saw in it are men of great stature. There we saw the giants (the descendants of the Anak came from the giants), and we were like grasshoppers in our sight, and so we were in their sight.

You will surely be in the eyes of anything the way you see the things and the position you have placed yourself in even as you have thought.

Now giant is bigger than the CROSS of Christ because, before the cross, giants are only being insignificantly inconsequential beings that will be reduced to nothing as long as you don’t reduce your thought to them with fear.

Do not allow the fear of giants which could be whatever situation in life to reduce you to an object of fear, because the moment you start fearing, you will start doubting ASCAT’s ability and you cannot become a witness of what you are doubting.

Be another kind of them…

See hope in hopeless situations.

Sinners are not condemned, but a potential seed of faith for fruit that will abide in righteousness if and only if we will not keep back the gospel from them.

Sometimes it will have caused you pains to administer the life of ASCAT, to you it will become much gain doing heaven’s biding, for there is no greater joy in heaven than the change of atmosphere that comes with a soul being saved.

Jesus needs you to enter in to change the lives of sinners, be a good and faithful witness for Christ.
