At salvation a sinner is translated from the kingdom of darkness into the kingdom of light, where he now lives as a child of God. Every child in the kingdom of light is meant to pass through the process of transformation that takes them from childhood to maturity. This process is necessary to make us mature sons and daughters that are able to follow the leading of the Holy Spirit - Romans 8:14. 

While the disciples who witnessed the ascension of Jesus Christ, stood gazing into heaven, they were informed by two angels, that the same Jesus will come back again. Since then, many deceivers have presented themselves to the world as Jesus. But we are expecting the same Jesus that ascended into heaven, to come back in like manner by descending from heaven to rapture his bride: "for the Lord himself shall descend from heaven ..." - 1 Thessalonians 4:16-17.

There are two contrary spiritual laws in operation and you are either under one regime or the other. They are the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus and the law of sin and death: the former sets one free from the latter. We are saved by grace through faith in Christ Jesus that the law of sin and death may no longer have dominion over us. This grace of God that brings salvation teaches us that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live soberly, righteously, and godly, in this present world -Titus 2:11.

Great multitudes followed Jesus as He preached the gospel of the kingdom and healed all manner of sickness and all manner of disease among the people. Jesus, seeing the multitudes went up into a mountain, and it is interesting to note that only His disciples climbed up to meet Him there. But the multitudes remained in the plains and in the valley. Are you a committed follower or just an ordinary follower?

According to Jesus, believers are the light of the world because He dwells in them. But a believer will not have the expected influence in their little corner of the community if they fail to shine their light. Let your light so shine as commanded by the Lord. Light is stronger than darkness: no matter its thickness, darkness cannot comprehend the light of God. Let your moderation be known unto all men that the Lord brings your way.
