I bless the day I clicked on your video for the first time and I’ve stayed all this while, I am glad to be privileged by God to be a participant of this series. It was really made for such a time as this.
I encourage you not to simply watch the video and pass by; instead, take the time to jot down notes and carefully review the scriptures presented actively. I personally find that I watch this 4 to 5 times, and with each viewing, I discover new insights that resonate deeply with me. Being a dedicated student of the Spirit is essential so you can truly benefit from these teachings. As challenging times lie ahead, nourishing your spirit and mind is crucial to navigate the coming difficult days effectively. Engaging with this content regularly will prepare you to withstand periods of spiritual famine. Eat now, for the journey is far. Eat again.
That matt.7 is a no no, they can't be saved and Jesus will tell them I never knew you No! It's because He never knew(past tense) them, not like He knew them before and He later loose them No! They were never saved. Anyone can participate in different religious activities and not be saved or be known by Christ. Jesus says "My sheep hear My voice, and I know them, and they follow Me…and they will NEVER perish"(John10:27-30).
I do enjoy this deliberate effort to lift up this so much trampled upon, and neglected issue of RIGHTEOUSNESS among Christianity professors of the present day.
But, I have issue with the presentation from Matthew 7:22-23.
My question is — will workers of iniquity still have access to heaven/kingdom of God since someone was once born again?
"I never know you" "Depart from me" "You workers of iniquity"
The above highlights were from the very lips of the Lord Jesus.
"For if by one man's offence death reigned by one; much more they which receive abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness shall reign in life by one, Jesus Christ." Apostle Arome begins by introducing the theme of righteousness, emphasising that righteousness is a gift from God, received by grace. This gift of righteousness comes through Jesus Christ, and it allows us to stand before God accepted. By this gift, we are enabled to live victorious lives, reigning over sin, the flesh, and the challenges of this world.
Key Point: The gift of righteousness is a positional advantage that places believers in a state of acceptance before God, allowing us to approach Him without condemnation. 2. The Gift of Righteousness: Christ in Us Scripture Focus: 1 John 3:2-7
"Beloved, now are we the sons of God, and it doth not yet appear what we shall be: but we know that, when he shall appear, we shall be like him; for we shall see him as he is. And every man that hath this hope in him purifieth himself, even as he is pure." "Little children, let no man deceive you: he that doeth righteousness is righteous, even as he is righteous." Apostle Arome points out that righteousness is both a gift and a walk. While Christ’s righteousness is imputed to us, we are also called to live righteously. The passage from 1 John warns believers not to be deceived into thinking that receiving the gift of righteousness exempts them from living righteously.
Key Point: Righteousness is not only a positional gift but also a practical reality that must be demonstrated through righteous living. Believers are called to purify themselves and walk in righteousness as Christ is righteous. 3. Righteousness: Walking in Purpose and Godliness Scripture Focus: 1 Corinthians 15:9-10
"For I am the least of the apostles, that am not meet to be called an apostle, because I persecuted the church of God. But by the grace of God I am what I am: and his grace which was bestowed upon me was not in vain; but I laboured more abundantly than they all: yet not I, but the grace of God which was with me." Apostle highlights that grace is not just a passive gift; it empowers us to labour in God’s purpose. Paul testifies that he worked harder than other apostles, but it was not through his own strength—it was through the grace of God.
Key Point: Grace is the divine empowerment that enables believers to fulfil their purpose in God. It gives us the ability to labour and produce good works that glorify God and fulfil His will. 4. The Works of Righteousness: Labour Empowered by Grace **Righteousness is more than a gift; it is also a work. Apostle Arome stresses that the works we perform in our Christian life—driven by the grace of God—are key to fulfilling our purpose and manifesting God's will on earth.
The works of righteousness are the visible evidence of the grace we have received. These works are not just religious activities but the labour that flows from a life aligned with God's purpose.
Key Point: The works of righteousness include our labour in God’s Kingdom, and they will be evaluated at the Judgment Seat of Christ. The quality of our works will determine our reward in eternity.
5. The Role of Discipline in Achieving Righteousness Scripture Focus: 1 Corinthians 9:24-27
"Know ye not that they which run in a race run all, but one receiveth the prize? So run, that ye may obtain. And every man that striveth for the mastery is temperate in all things. Now they do it to obtain a corruptible crown; but we an incorruptible. I therefore so run, not as uncertainly; so fight I, not as one that beateth the air: But I keep under my body, and bring it into subjection: lest that by any means, when I have preached to others, I myself should be a castaway." Apostle Arome explains that achieving righteousness in practice requires discipline. Just as athletes discipline their bodies to win a race, believers must discipline their bodies and subdue their fleshly desires to pursue righteous living. Apostle Paul’s example shows that even after preaching to others, he disciplined himself to ensure he would not be disqualified.
Key Point: Righteousness involves self-discipline and controlling the flesh. We must intentionally subject our bodies and desires to the will of God in order to receive the eternal reward at the Judgment Seat of Christ. 6. The Choices We Make: Righteousness or Worldliness Scripture Focus: Hebrews 11:24-26
"By faith Moses, when he was come to years, refused to be called the son of Pharaoh's daughter; choosing rather to suffer affliction with the people of God, than to enjoy the pleasures of sin for a season; Esteeming the reproach of Christ greater riches than the treasures in Egypt: for he had respect unto the recompense of the reward." Apostle uses Moses as an example of choosing righteousness over the pleasures of sin. Moses deliberately chose to suffer with God’s people rather than enjoy the temporary pleasures of the world because he was focused on the eternal reward.
Key Point: Living righteously often requires making hard choices, such as rejecting the fleeting pleasures of sin in favour of suffering for Christ. The decisions we make today will have eternal consequences, and we must keep our eyes on the reward. 7. Running the Race with Eternity in View Scripture Focus: Matthew 7:21-23
"Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven. Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works? And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity." Apostle Arome warns that it is possible to be deceived into thinking we are doing God’s will, only to be rejected at the Judgment Seat of Christ. It is not enough to perform religious acts or appear righteous outwardly; true righteousness involves doing the will of the Father.
Key Point: Religious activities without submission to God’s will are meaningless. Only those who truly do the will of God will receive a favourable judgment. We must be careful not to fall into self-deception, thinking that works done for personal gain or recognition will count in eternity. 8. Conclusion: Apostle concludes by reminding believers that righteousness is both a gift and a walk. While we have received righteousness through Christ, we are called to live in a way that reflects that righteousness through our works and labour in the Kingdom of God.
Final Thought: We must pursue a life of righteousness, make hard choices, discipline ourselves, and keep our eyes on the eternal reward. At the Judgment Seat of Christ, our works will be evaluated, and only those who have lived according to God’s will will receive the reward.
Amen and amen Apostle The Lord bless you for all you do for the kingdom You have been a great blessing to me beyond what words could describe and to many the world over. We follow you as you follow Jesus Christ. Looking forward to meeting you in person some day. Great grace Apostle!

"I never know you"
"Depart from me"
"You workers of iniquity"
The above highlights were from the very lips of the Lord Jesus.
Apostle Arome should clarify.
Thank you sir for exposing us to this profound truth of God's word. Can't wait for the next line of teaching.
I have a question sir. What will now be the fate of those Jesus said should depart from him, the workers of iniquity. Am really curious sir🙏
Thank you sir
My Notes :
1. Scripture Focus: Romans 5:17
"For if by one man's offence death reigned by one; much more they which receive abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness shall reign in life by one, Jesus Christ."

2. The Gift of Righteousness: Christ in Us
Scripture Focus: 1 John 3:2-7
"Beloved, now are we the sons of God, and it doth not yet appear what we shall be: but we know that, when he shall appear, we shall be like him; for we shall see him as he is. And every man that hath this hope in him purifieth himself, even as he is pure."

3. Righteousness: Walking in Purpose and Godliness
Scripture Focus: 1 Corinthians 15:9-10
