In a hostile generation it is needful that every Christian know who they are in God, or many will fall prey to the lies of the devil. Truth is the weapon of choice against lies and deception. God’s Word is truth, and it is life. No wonder that iniquity abounds in a world that will accept a lie before truth can get its boots strapped on. Amazing how that is, that people will accept a lie without checking it out, making sure of its validity, or even checking out reputable resources for a second opinion. Listening to voices who do not have your best interest at heart is like trusting a toddler to do brain surgery on your brain. The Bible is the source of all truth and everything else should be compared to what God’s Word reveals and if it does not align with the Word of God then it is rejected as truth. God reveals in Gen. 1:26, 27 that He created man in His image and in His likeness. In Dr. Fredrick K. C. Price’s book titled: “Race, Religion, & Racism, A Bold Encounter With Division in the Church,” volume 1, in chapter 3 titled: “In God’s Image,” Dr. Price says: “In the Hebrew language, in which the Old Testament was originally written, the word for “image” and “likeness” found in Genesis 1:26 is tselem. Tselem comes from a root word meaning “form,” and, in addition to likeness and image, it implies “resemblance,” or a “representative figure.” This tells us that man is a copy or counterpart of God. Since God made man in His image (tselem); if we want to find out about man, we must first find out what God is. Then we will know what we are, because we are God’s tselem, copy or counterpart.” That’s all men, not just black men, or white men, or brown men, or yellow men, but all men! Though sin separated man from God in the Garden, Jesus made a way for the restoration of the God-image, Rom. 10:9, 10. All men can be restored to the likeness and image of the Creator and know who they are in Christ Jesus and walk in that revelation by faith. In His Service, Pastor Jeffery A. Muchison Scripture for Sunday, 5-4-25 Genesis 1:27 (KJV) 27 So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them.

Resurrection Sunday is one of the most holy and powerful celebrations for so many reasons. First of all, without the resurrection Christianity would fall apart. Like all other religious founders, if Christ had not risen then He would still be in the grave, or at least His body would still be in the grave. Christianity would be no different than all other religions whose founders you would still find their remains wherever they were laid. The other very powerful consequence from the resurrection, surprisingly, is not taught or preached about with the prominence that it should be and that is, when it comes to the resurrection it is directly part of the restoration of the God-image inside of them that believe as witnessed by the following scriptures: Romans 6:4 (KJV): 4 Therefore we are buried with him by baptism into death: that like as Christ was raised up from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life. Colossians 2:12 (KJV): 12 Buried with him in baptism, wherein also ye are risen with him through the faith of the operation of God, who hath raised him from the dead. 2 Corinthians 5:17 (KJV): 17 Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new. Colossians 3:1-3 (KJV): 1 If ye then be risen with Christ, seek those things which are above, where Christ sitteth on the right hand of God. 2 Set your affection on things above, not on things on the earth. 3 For ye are dead, and your life is hid with Christ in God. Galatians 2:20 (KJV): 20 I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me. The “new man” is the resurrected man living the resurrected life in Christ Jesus. We too, as Lazarus was resurrected from natural death back to a natural life, were raised from spiritual death to spiritual life. With that resurrection from spiritual death came the revelation of the God-image and our relationship with God. Today’s message will explore that reality. In His Service, Pastor Jeffery A. Muchison Scripture for Sunday, 4-27-25 Romans 8:11 (KJV) 11 But if the Spirit of him that raised up Jesus from the dead dwell in you, he that raised up Christ from the dead shall also quicken your mortal bodies by his Spirit that dwelleth in you. Announcements for Sunday, 4-27-25 CCC will have Bible study Monday, 4-28-25, at 7:30 p.m. For the month of May CCC will have Bible study Monday, 5-5-25, 5-19-25, & 5-26-25, at 7:30 p.m. CCC will not have Bible study Monday, 5-12-25, but the video for the Bible study will be uploaded to CCC’s website.

Today is resurrection Sunday, the event where not only was Jesus raised up from the grave, but so were we, Colossians 2:12 (KJV): 12 Buried with him in baptism, wherein also ye are risen with him through the faith of the operation of God, who hath raised him from the dead. Since we have been raised up with Christ we are raised up to newness of life, Romans 6:4 (KJV): 4 Therefore we are buried with him by baptism into death: that like as Christ was raised up from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life. The Christian’s life is hid in Christ, Colossians 3:3 (KJV): 3 For ye are dead, and your life is hid with Christ in God. That’s how the Father sees us, hid in Christ. He doesn’t see your past mistakes and God’s not condemning you and I because Romans 10:9-10 (KJV) reads: 9 That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. 10 For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. We live resurrected lives unto Christ now. We’re not our own, but we are bought with a price. The resurrected life is a life of faith in Jesus Christ, Galatians 2:20 (KJV): 20 I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me. That resurrected life is the transformed life as revealed in Romans 12:2 (KJV): 2 And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God. The word transformed is from the Greek word metamorpho whereas we get our English word metamorphosis which is the change as when a caterpillar is transformed into a butterfly. His inner systems as well as his outer systems are completely changed in the metamorphosis process. 2 Corinthians 5:17 (KJV): 17 Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new. When Jesus was resurrected, so were we, to a new life as unto God and not unto men, Col. 3:23. In His Service, Pastor Jeffery A. Muchison Scripture for Sunday, 4-20-25 Colossians 3:1 (KJV) 1 If ye then be risen with Christ, seek those things which are above, where Christ sitteth on the right hand of God.

Being spiritually minded, according to the Word of God, is to be aware of and understanding what the plans and purposes of God are, yielding to those plans and purposes all to His glory. A people humbled in His presence. The only wise and true God be glory and majesty, dominion and power, forever and ever. To know Him is the greatest honor and privilege in this life. We are a blessed people that are called by His name. His ways are not our ways, and His thoughts are not our thoughts. The Bible reveals that there is another realm that is even more real than the one we see in the natural. The reality of the spirit realm is God’s revelation to man and the possibility of the impossible being unlocked to them that believe. That’s what the generals of the faith teach us in Heb. 11. We too, have access into this realm where the impossible becomes possible. I’m convinced that, for the most part, we, the people of God, have not tapped into the authority and power that are the children’s bread, our covenant rights, paid for by the blood of the Lamb, our Lord & Savior Jesus Christ. He paid the price so that you and I could know that this awesome God that we love and serve has yours and my best interest at heart. He not only provides our every need, but He is the guarantee of the covenant. Once we tap into this realm by faith, like many that I call generals of the faith, life becomes that rest because we’ve learned to trust in God more than anything else. He gives us a promise, Matthew 11:28-30 (KJV): 28 Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. 29 Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls. 30 For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light. In His Service, Pastor Jeffery A. Muchison Scripture for Sunday, 4-13-25 1 Corinthians 15:48 (KJV) 48 As is the earthy, such are they also that are earthy: and as is the heavenly, such are they also that are heavenly. Announcements for Sunday, 4-13-25 CCC will have Bible study Monday, 4-14-25, & 4-28-25, at 7:30 p.m. CCC will not have Bible study Monday, 4-21-25, but the video for the Bible study will be uploaded to CCC’s website.

As we seek God concerning the spiritual and the natural, we can find in the Word of God powerful examples of what it takes to have a life that walks by faith and not by sight. The Bible reveals a people committed to a life set apart for the glory of God. They were people just like all other people except they had faith in God. Their faith in God set them apart then and our faith in God sets us apart now. What an encouragement to present-day Believers when they see in God’s Word how saints of old coped with their storms and trials of their faith. They weren’t given anything more special to deal with their tests than what we have. They weren’t given anything except what were their covenant rights and what was considered the children’s bread. Honestly, we are the more blessed as it relates to the Old & New Covenants. We have the better covenant with better promises. We have the Holy Spirit dwelling inside of us. The Old Testament saints did not have the blessing of the indwelling presence of the Holy Spirit like the New Covenant Church enjoys today. We have more revelation. We’re under grace and not under the law. We are the more blessed because the Old Testament was the New Testament concealed, and the New Testament is the Old Testament revealed. Jesus is our Guarantee of the New Covenant. Ours is the generation with the revelation of the God-man, the Christ, God in the flesh, Immanuel, the second person of the trinity, by whose name is the only name under heaven by which men must be saved. Therefore, in all honesty, we’re in the most blessed time for the Church. We live in the age of the Spirit outpouring and the Lord’s soon return. Amen! In His Service, Pastor Jeffery A. Muchison Scripture for Sunday, 4-6-25 Hebrews 11:13 (KJV) 13 These all died in faith, not having received the promises, but having seen them afar off, and were persuaded of them, and embraced them, and confessed that they were strangers and pilgrims on the earth.

When you and I are faced with impossible odds against us we remain strong realizing that what may be impossible with man is possible with God because all things are possible with the Lord. Faith defies the odds. Matthew 19:26 (KJV): 26 But Jesus beheld them, and said unto them, With men this is impossible; but with God all things are possible. That’s why for the people of God life is always our choice when facing the odds against us. Faith in the Word is our lifeline, 1 John 5:4-5 (KJV): 4 For whatsoever is born of God overcometh the world: and this is the victory that overcometh the world, even our faith. 5 Who is he that overcometh the world, but he that believeth that Jesus is the Son of God? Regardless of the pressure to follow our senses the mature Christian knows that the only choice is to stand on the promises of God and sometimes those options can seem very blurry which way to go, but the Holy Spirit will help us make the right decisions. He will guide us and lead us into all truth. Our faith is our victory right now, present tense, and our test will always be, will we follow God, or will we follow our senses? The choice is ours. Deuteronomy 30:19 (KJV): 19 I call heaven and earth to record this day against you, that I have set before you life and death, blessing and cursing: therefore choose life, that both thou and thy seed may live. To choose life is to choose His Word because His Word is life, John 6:63 (KJV): 63 It is the spirit that quickeneth; the flesh profiteth nothing: the words that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and they are life. John 10:10 (KJV): 10 The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly. In His Service, Pastor Jeffery A. Muchison Scripture for Sunday, 3-30-25 Joshua 24:15 (KJV) 15 And if it seem evil unto you to serve the LORD, choose you this day whom ye will serve; whether the gods which your fathers served that were on the other side of the flood, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land ye dwell: but as for me and my house, we will serve the LORD.

1 John 5:14-15 (KJV): 14 And this is the confidence that we have in him, that, if we ask any thing according to his will, he heareth us: 15 And if we know that he hear us, whatsoever we ask, we know that we have the petitions that we desired of him. The confidence, or assurance that we have in Christ is that whatever we ask God that’s aligned with His Word, then we can believe Him for it and know that we will receive it. Again, the Bible reads in John 14:13-14 (KJV): 13 And whatsoever ye shall ask in my name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son. 14 If ye shall ask any thing in my name, I will do it. Asking anything in Jesus name means to ask in the authority of Jesus name in that we have been given the power-of-attorney meaning that when we act in the authority of Jesus it’s as if Jesus was doing it Himself. We have been given the authority to do the works of Christ, Matthew 16:18-19 (KJV): 18 And I say also unto thee, That thou art Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it. 19 And I will give unto thee the keys of the kingdom of heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt bind on earth shall be bound in heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven. If I can find out what the Word of God says about any situation in my life then I can believe God for that and in expectation look forward to receiving which is what His Word teaches, Mark 11:22-24 (KJV): 22 And Jesus answering saith unto them, Have faith in God. 23 For verily I say unto you, That whosoever shall say unto this mountain, Be thou removed, and be thou cast into the sea; and shall not doubt in his heart, but shall believe that those things which he saith shall come to pass; he shall have whatsoever he saith. 24 Therefore I say unto you, What things soever ye desire, when ye pray, believe that ye receive them, and ye shall have them. This is the confidence that every Christian has access to in Christ, but whether we walk in it or not is our choice. In His Service, Pastor Jeffery A. Muchison Scripture for Sunday, 3-23-25 1 Peter 2:24 (KJV) 24 Who his own self bare our sins in his own body on the tree, that we, being dead to sins, should live unto righteousness: by whose stripes ye were healed.

Father, thank you for your Word, for faith comes by hearing and hearing by the Word of God. I pray that your Spirit will fill every brother and sister right now. Let your very presence be manifested in a tangible way. I pray that the peace that passes understanding would overtake your people now in the name of Jesus. Satan, you must obey the authority of the name of Jesus. I command you now, in Jesus name, you, your sickness, and all that manifests because of you, to go from this place now. I command bodies to be made whole in Jesus name. I command cancer to go, in Jesus name. I command blood disorders to become normal in Jesus name. I command mental disorders to be sound in Jesus name. I command organs to function properly. I command blind eyes to open in Jesus name. I command that crack demon to loose it’s hold off of that young man or young lady. I command the spirit of witchcraft, which involves the misuse of and drug addiction, to come out, never to torment that person again, in Jesus name. I command muscles and twisted limbs to be straight, in Jesus name. I command arthritis to go from bodies now, in Jesus name. I command female disorders to be made whole, in Jesus name. I command male disorders to get in order, in Jesus name. I command that foot disorder to be made whole, in Jesus name. I command diabetes to go, in Jesus name. I command heart disease to go, in Jesus name. I command osteosclerosis to go, in Jesus name. I command liver disease to go, in Jesus name. I command kidney disease to go, in Jesus name. I command kidney stones to dissolve, in Jesus name. I command that bladder disorder to be made whole, in Jesus name. I command broken bones, fractures, to heal speedily, in Jesus name. I command every sickness, and every disease to go, in Jesus name. Amen! In His Service, Pastor Jeffery A. Muchison Scripture for Sunday, 3-16-25 Luke 9:1 (KJV) 1 Then he called his twelve disciples together, and gave them power and authority over all devils, and to cure diseases.

Proverbs 3:9-10 (KJV): 9 Honour the LORD with thy substance, and with the firstfruits of all thine increase: 10 So shall thy barns be filled with plenty, and thy presses shall burst out with new wine. To honor the Lord with our substance is the fruit of our reverence and respect. When you treat someone as if they are of value to you then they are of value to you. 1 Timothy 5:17 (KJV): 17 Let the elders that rule well be counted worthy of double honour, especially they who labour in the word and doctrine. The word honor here in 1 Tim. 5:17 is from the Greek word time, pronounced teemay, and it means a value that is money, paid or valuables. Esteem (especially of the highest degree) or the dignity itself:- honour, precious, price, some. Honor is a word that is becoming extinct in this generation, but still, as students of the Word, it is key to receiving the blessings of God. Ephesians 6:1-3 (KJV): 1 Children, obey your parents in the Lord: for this is right. 2 Honour thy father and mother; (which is the first commandment with promise;) 3 That it may be well with thee, and thou mayest live long on the earth. God’s Word promises longevity to them that honor their father and mother. This is what Abraham teaches us when he was returning from war to free his nephew Lot in Gen. 14. Abraham met the high priest Melchizedec. Melchizedec blessed Abraham and the Bible says that Abraham paid tithes unto Melchizedec. There are types and shadows going on in this exchange. Abraham represented the Levitical priesthood and the law that were in his loins, Heb. 7:9, 10. Melchizedec was a type of Christ, Ps. 110:4. Abraham honored Melchizedec when he gave tithes unto him, Heb. 7:4-7, revealing that the ministry of Christ is a more excellent ministry than was the law of Moses, a better covenant with better promises. And you mean to tell me that I can’t lift my hands and tell God thank you? The devil is a liar.  In His Service, Pastor Jeffery A. Muchison Scripture for Sunday, 3-9-25 Hebrews 5:9-10 (KJV) 9 And being made perfect, he became the author of eternal salvation unto all them that obey him; 10 Called of God an high priest after the order of Melchisedec.
