TRACT 163: MAKE IT KNOWN “Let your moderation be known unto all men. The Lord is at hand.” — Philippians 4:5 The world says: “Follow the crowd. Do what everyone does. Live as you please.” But God says: “Let your moderation be known.” There is a life that speaks louder than words. It is a life in Christ. Many will never open a Bible, but they read this kind of life: a life of consecration unto God in words, actions, habits and outlook, and a life of contentment clothed with humility and meekness. It is a sermon preached daily, at home, at work, at school and online. Whoever strives to live this way on earth is wise and ready for the kingdom of heaven. God is calling everyone to this life. Why does God call us to moderation? Because the Lord is at hand. Christ is coming, and every life will stand open before Him. Moderation is not about pleasing religious rules. It is the visible fruit of a heart that has been changed by Jesus. In what areas can my moderation be made kno...

TRACT 162: PEACE, PURITY & POWER "Follow peace with all men, and holiness, without which no man shall see the Lord" (Hebrews 12:14). Peace, purity, and power are the three hallmarks of a true Christian – a believer who has genuinely accepted Jesus Christ as Lord and Saviour. These are not achievements of human effort; they are the direct result of a life yielded to God and indwelt by His Holy Spirit. A heart at peace becomes a life set apart in holiness, and a life set apart in holiness becomes a vessel through which the power of God can flow. 1. PEACE True peace begins the moment a sinner repents and receives Christ. “Therefore being justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ” (Romans 5:1). This is peace with God – no more guilt, condemnation, and fear of judgment, because sins have been forgiven. This enables one to extend peace toward others – forgiving offences, avoiding strife, and living without bitterness toward any man. ...

TRACT 161: WHAT IS THE ULTIMATE GOAL? "Enter ye at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat: Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it" Matthew 7:13 & 14 . The field is wide, but the goal post is small. The crowd are the spectators and supporters, present to cheer their favorite team to score the winning goal before stoppage time. Every player from each team enters the field of play with one goal — to get the ball into the net, while the supporters cheer for their own and the opposers eager to see the opponent defeated on the field of play. Just like players on the field of play. And there is surely a stoppage time for each of us to leave this earth for eternity. Heaven — God the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, with the Angels — are our supporters. They cheer us on and call out: “Follow the narrow way of holiness, pur...

TRACTS 160: OBEDIENCE BRINGS BLESSINGS "The men of Nineveh shall rise in judgment with this generation, and shall condemn it: because they repented at the preaching of Jonas, and behold, a greater than Jonas is here" Mathew 12:41 . Nineveh was a city known for its ungodliness and wickedness. God saw their moral perversion and sent His messenger, the prophet Jonah, to warn them of the wrath He planned to unleash. When they heard Jonah’s preaching, they were pricked in their hearts. In sober reflection, they fasted and prayed, seeking God’s forgiveness and mercy. Seeing their humble hearts, God relented and turned away His wrath(Jonah Chapter 3). Repentance is the hallmark of salvation. God sent Jesus not to condemn the world, but that through Him all might be saved by simple obedience to His Word. To escape God’s wrath and receive the blessing of a good and eternal life, there must be personal repentance, parental repentance, and priestly repentance — just as there w...

TRACT 159: IT IS POSSIBLE! "But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, long-suffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, Meekness, temperance: against such there is no law" - Galatians 5:23-23. The nine fruits of the Spirit are essential virtues that the Holy Spirit develops within a believer’s life who has been saved and sanctified. These attributes mirror God’s very character and are expressed through a person’s conduct and relationships (relationship with God and mankind) ✓LOVE: Is it possible to seek the best for others regardless of their behaviour, and to put God first in all things? ✓JOY: Is it possible to lift others up through the inner joy of salvation that is visible on one’s face and countenance? ✓PEACE: Is it possible to follow peace with all men, and to maintain holy walk with God? ✓LONG-SUFFERING: Is it possible to endure all offences of men without having deep hatred and anger? ✓GENTLENESS: Is it possible to have considerate attitude fre...

TRACT 158: SEEK YE FIRST THE KINGDOM OF GOD "But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you" - Matthew 6:33. The kingdom of God is all about doing good and living right. Jesus showed us that the Kingdom is not a place we wait for—it starts here on earth and should be practiced and lived out. To seek the Kingdom of God is to let God’s character shape our actions: doing good, even when no one sees; living right, even when it is inconvenient; showing love to neighbors and serving God with a holy heart. This is where heaven touches earth. In the kingdom of God is righteousness (right standing with God and moral integrity) which comes only through faith in Jesus. Faith in Jesus means: (a) Believing He is the only Savior from sin and Satan. (b) Turning away from sin. (c) Walking in obedience to God’s Word. (d) Trusting Him for eternal life. It is dangerous to pursue only earthly riches without seeking the kin...

TRACT 157: THE ONLY WAY TO GOD "Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life,: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me" John 14:6 . Did Jesus really mean it with His comforting words to His troubled disciples as He was preparing for His departure? Is Jesus truly the way, the truth, and the life? Assuredly, Jesus is the way - the path to salvation and entrance to heaven where God dwells. Jesus is the truth - the revealer of God's character, words, and will. Jesus is the life - the offerer of eternal life and a new way of living. If Jesus was not the way of salvation, God would not have sent His angel to devout Cornelius (a religionist) to send for Peter to reveal to him the true way of holiness in Christ. Cornelius was "a devout man, and one that feared God with all his house, which gave much alms to the people, and prayed to God always". The self-righteousness of Cornelius and his household was not enough to secure them eternal life. The...
