As believers, eternity is not something to gamble with. The gospel is a specific message that when we believe our eternity is secured. Through believing in the death, burial and resurrection of Christ we have been saved and eternal life is ours. Believing the gospel means us getting saved but those who do not believe are condemned already. This is why we treat the gospel as an urgent message and n...

In this session of Orthodoxy, Pastor Nelson teaches on the uniqueness of The Holy Bible; guiding us to the truth that it is God’s word and laws of Bible interpretation; how to properly read and interpret scripture. The Bible can be trusted as the word of God with several internal and external evidences. We also learn in this teaching how to avoid the wrong interpretation of scriptures. When studyi...

We kicked off our camp meeting with a short charge on engaging prophecy in prayer. We serve a good God who will not withhold any good thing from those he loves. One thing to be reminded of however is that without God, man cannot and without man, God will not. God has decided that his will on earth will be achieved by partnering with men. When we pray, we align ourselves with God's plan for us...

This stirring teaching by Pastor Nelson focuses on the Power of the Holy Ghost at work in us right when we got saved. This same Power we see in scriptures healing all kinds of sickness, and working diverse miracles is at work in us also. We all of the Spirit of God in us, and we can do the works of Jesus everywhere we are.  Listen to this exhortation on The Creative Power and be stirred.

Through the Old Testament, we see Jesus being foretold. Beginning at Moses, through the psalms and in the prophets. Jesus fulfilled 48 of these prophecies. Repeatedly, Jesus and the New Testament writers rested the credibility of their message in the Messianic prophecies in the Old Testament. These prophecies were all fulfilled in Christ. In this sermon we learn about these prophecies and their fu...

Have you ever wondered why blood was needed for the sacrifice of sins? Or the reasons why the Tabernacle  was built? Or the roles of High Priests? As we progress in our series on Sketches and Fullness, Pastor Nelson expounds on The High Priest and The Lamb. These had a very sanctified role in the Old Testament relationship between God and the Israelites. Christ came as the perfect Lamb and High Pr...

Continuing in the Gospel series, Pastor Nelson explains the redemptive story on how we can look to Jesus and be saved like the brazen serpent. Scriptures give wisdom unto the believer for the purpose of salvation through faith in Christ Jesus. God will perform a working in the heart of those who have believed in the gospel. The believer that is in faith is living in earnest expectation of a messia...

Sound doctrine is not just basics, but God’s word and we must learn to know the intent behind each verse, chapter and story. Reading ourselves into the word can take us on the wrong track. As we continue our series, The Gospel Truth, we look at the story of Noah and the building of the ark and how it points to salvation in Christ. We see in Noah’s story the grace of God, Justice of God, Faith in a...

The blessing of Abraham is not only upon Isaac, but also on those who put their faith in Christ. The one who blessed Abraham was greater than Abraham. For Melchizedek to have a blessed Abraham, it is Proof that he was higher than Abraham. Melchizedek was a figure of Jesus in the Old Testament. He was a shadow of the Messiah. Abraham was called a friend of God, because righteousness was imputed int...

A Christian is not just someone who believes in Jesus but someone whose mind is renewed and sees from God’s perspective. Christianity is the light by which we see every other thing. One important thing to know is that bad things don’t just happen to good people but to everyone but in different variations. The world we live in is fraught with storms, challenges and issues. Everyone will eventually...

Every person has an idea of eternity in their hearts whether they are conscious of it or not. For every believer, we have a new life, where Christ rules as Lord. In this one lifetime we have, we must give our all to live for what matters, God. In our actions, views, words, decisions and estimations of things we must live through the lens that we will give account to God after this life. To live a...

One thing we can learn from looking at life on earth through the lens of scripture is that a life lived chasing pleasures will not end well. Life is not meaningless and man was created by God for a purpose. To walk in this divine purpose is the surest and Safest way to live.  Listen to this teaching from One Special Meeting Lagos on Walking in Purpose by Pastor Nelson Iheagwam and be stirred

Through a careful look at the Holy Bible, we see threads of stories that are interwoven to tell one story, the Salvation Story. In the Old Testament, we have a great example of Abraham, whose story is a type our Faith in Christ. In this teaching, we get to learn how the Gospel has always been the plan of God from inception, and how Abraham’s faith depicts this.  Listen to this teaching on the Gosp...

The Bible made up of 66 Books divided into the Old and New Testaments has been misinterpreted for years to mean several things outside the actual true theme.  It is expedient to know that Christ is the theme of the entire scriptures. As we study through scriptures, we must see Christ and only Christ, from Genesis through Revelation.  Listen to this teaching on Christ as the center of Scriptures.

The Christian life is an empowered life. We’re joyful not just because of our circumstances but because joy is a fruit of our spirit. In this concluding part of the Joy series, Pastor Nelson does a recap on the teachings in the earlier parts of this series. He reminds us amongst many other things what Joy means for us as believers.  As children of God Jesus is our greatest Joy, and Joy must be sha...

As believers, the greatest miracle we have received is a testimony of changed desires, we are instructed through the word to set our affections on the things of God. We do this by staying with the word, finding delight in the things of God, till we truly find JOY IN THE WORD. Listen to this sermon by Pastor Nelson Iheagwam and be edified as you do so.

As believers we also go through tough times. Many times in these tough periods, we have questions like “Where is God in my pain”? “why do bad things happen to good people”? Getting the right answers to these questions should bring us closer to God, and reveal His Steadfast Goodness towards us. In this sermon, Pastor Nelson answered these questions and expounded on what God can do with our pain and...

Have you ever pondered on or asked this question "Why is there evil on this earth?" "If God is good, why do bad things happen?" This is one question that both atheists, agnostics and believers ask in response to the evil encountered in different parts of the world. In this teaching, Pastor Nelson expounds on the questions and provides clear answers that will help bring clarity....

Perseverance in prayer does not indicate a lack of faith or an attempt to encourage God. To continue in prayer implies to stay. Investment in the spirit might take time to bear fruit; this is why investing in the spirit entails not only increasing spiritual activity but also decreasing other activities.  There is such a thing as ministering to the Lord, where the emphasis is on loving on God rathe...

A man who takes the word of God to heart is one who does the word of God and is blessed by it. Your Christian experience should always be in line with the revelation of God’s word. Praying should be beyond a practice for us to share our needs and move on, there is a way to pray and this can be taught. Praying the right way helps us make the most of our time in fellowship and communicating with God...

God’s original design is for men to always pray. Prayer is humility, it is acknowledging God’s infinitude and man’s finitude. As believers when we pray, we show that we know that there is one that hears prayers.  It is not strange when we fellowship with God, rather what is strange is man not in constant fellowship with God. We stay continuously in prayers, leaning on and trusting our powerful God...

In God’s plan, devotion is not designed to be just for a season but to be consistent and continuous. It’s easy to let the pressures and cares of this world distract us from fellowship with our Father, but we should fight for our fervency, and be intentional in our fellowship with God. In these should be our uttermost satisfaction.  Need a charge to set your heart ablaze for God?  Listen to this te...

To be regenerated is to be born again. This is a very popular phrase in Christianity. We live and were born in a fallen world, with the sin nature at work, estranged from God. However, by placing our faith in the resurrected Jesus, we get regenerated, stony hearts made flesh and now we can engage with the affairs of God and fellowship in the Spirit. This life we live now, we live regenerated by th...

Getting a health check for our bodies is widely advised all over the world, as this enables us as humans to ensure that we are healthy and our body is functioning as it should. This applies also to our Spiritual life. We must learn have moments of introspection when we check for vital signs to know if we are on the right path and growing.  Just like we get our vitals checked, how do we know when o...

Church culture is the feel of a local assembly. There were specific things that characterised the early church, and these should still be maintain today. The church is to train the saints to become ministry gifts. Our  Christian lives should be able to provoke another believer to do better in their faith. In honour, giving, edification and attitude to worship we must build a steadfast culture as a...
