Christian Acronym :: K.I.S.S

When a person is knighted, it is a great honor that is bestowed on that individual. The individual generally kneels down, as the queen taps each shoulder with a sword and dubs the person a knight. The persons receives a sword, a suit of armor and a pair of spurs  to represent the new status.

When we believe in Jesus Christ as our Lord and Savior, we are commissioned to be Knights In Savior’s Service (K.I.S.S). We kneel before Him with humility accepting His Lordship and swearing our allegiance to Him and by the sword of His mouth (which is the word of God), we are tapped on our shoulders and giving the honor of being a Knight in the service of Jesus, THE Savior. We are given a Sword (His word to share), a suit of the Armor (of God) and Spurs to be worn in our feet always to Go on His Commission with readiness for the Gospel of Peace (Ephesians 6:15). Our new status is one of great honor, which is Knights In Savior’s Service (K.I.S.S)

Interestingly, the origin of the word “Knight” comes from the Old English word cniht which means servant and is akin to Old High German kneht which means military follower. We are Knights In Savior’s Service (K.I.S.S) are to be “following servants” and “fighting soldiers” in the army of the King of kings and Lord of lords; Jesus Christ, the commander-in-chief of the army of God. We are to be Knights in the power of His might (Ephesian 6:10), and not our own.

Are you/Am I a Knight In Savior’s Service?

Ephesians 6:10-18 (KJV)
10
Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might.
11
Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.
12
For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.
13
Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.
14
Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness;
15
And your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace;
16
Above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked.
17
And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God:
18
Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all saints;

Christian Acronym :: J.A.G

JAG is the acronym for Judge Advocate General.

Jesus will return to Judge the Word and as a General in war, he will come and make war in the end times (Revelation 19:11). He is not only a Judge and General but an Advocate as well, for if we sin, he intercedes for us with God the Father (1 John 2:1).

Jesus is the ultimate Judge Advocate General (J.A.G)

Revelation 19:10-11 (KJV)
10
And I fell at his feet to worship him. And he said unto me, See thou do it not: I am thy fellowservant, and of thy brethren that have the testimony of Jesus: worship God: for the testimony of Jesus is the spirit of prophecy.
11
And I saw heaven opened, and behold a white horse; and he that sat upon him was called Faithful and True, and in righteousness he doth judge and make war.

1 John 2:1-2 (KJV)
1
My little children, these things write I unto you, that ye sin not. And if any man sin, we have an advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous:
2
And he is the propitiation for our sins: and not for ours only, but also for the sins of the whole world.

Christian Acronym :: I.S.P

Just as an Internet Service Provider (I.S.P) provides access to the people to all who are connected and who subscribe to their service, Jesus Christ is the Immortal Salvation Provider (I.S.P) to all who connect with Him and who subscribe to the belief that Jesus Christ is God’s only begotten Son, given for the Salvation of mankind, who paid the penalty of our sins, died in our stead, was raised to life by the power of God, conquering sin and death, once and for all, and is alive and seated at the right hand of God.

Without Christ, there is no connection to God. He is the Immortal Salvation Provider (I.S.P), and there is none other.

John 3:16-18  (KJV)
16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
17
For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved.
18
He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.

Christian Acronym :: H.E.L.P

When one is in need, they often seek the provisional assistance for another and when assistance is given, they are said to have been helped. But what is help? Is it one’s provisions or their presence that defines ‘Help’? From the Bible, we learn that God is our helper. H.E.L.P is His Ever Loving Presence. The Psalmist asks, “Where does my help come from?” and answers “My help comes from the LORD.” It is not only His provisions but His Presence that helps us.

Jesus said, “Lo, I am with you always!”. In other words, His being with us (Presence) is a promise that we can count on. Jesus is our Helper. His Ever Loving Presence (H.E.L.P) is promised and assured.

Psalm 121:1-2 (KJV)
1
I will lift up mine eyes unto the hills, from whence cometh my help.
2
My help cometh from the LORD, which made heaven and earth.

Matthew 28:18-20 (KJV)
18
And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth.
19
Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost:
20
Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world. Amen.

Christian Acronym :: C.O.U.P.L.E

On the 17th of March, 2011, our beloved sister, Mary Smrutha Paul will marry Dayanand Gaddala. The two will become one!

But, how can a COUPLE become One? The only way that this is possible is when the husband loves his wife sacrificially as Christ loved the Church and when the wife submits to the husband, and both the husband and the wife submit to the Lordship and Leadership of Jesus Christ.

To a Christian, the word COUPLE should mean Christ Offering Ultimate Peace, Love and Encouragement (C.O.U.P.L.E). A three-fold cord is not quickly broken (Ecclesiastes 4:12). When the two (COUPLE) are intertwined with Christ, they cannot be quickly broken.

Ecclesiastes 4:12 (KJV)
12 And if one prevail against him, two shall withstand him; and a threefold cord is not quickly broken.

Christian Acronym :: G.O.D

Christ Jesus is G.O.D, i.e., He is The Great Only Deity (G.O.D).
Is He your G.O.D?

Psalm 95:3 (KJV)
3 For the LORD is a great God, and a great King above all gods.

Psalm 86:10 (KJV)
10 For thou art great, and doest wondrous things: thou art God alone.

Colossians 2:9 (NIV)
9 For in Christ all the fullness of the Deity lives in bodily form,

Christian Acronym : F.Y.I

F.Y.I (For your Information), the Scripture is F.Y.I (For your INSTRUCTION). The reason for the Bible is instruction in righteousness. It is God’s word given to us so that we may be instructed. Psalm 32:8 assures us that God will instruct us and teach us in the way we should go. He instructs us through His inspired word. If you want to know what God wants you to do; as to what his will is for your life, open the Bible and look inside. God’s will is for us to be Holy and Righteous as He is Holy and Righteous. He wants us to be made perfect as is His Son, Jesus Christ. And all scripture is given by inspiration of God, For Your Instruction (F.Y.I.) in righteousness, so that man of God may be perfect (2 Timothy 3:15-17).

2 Timothy 3:15-17 (KJV)
15
And that from a child thou hast known the holy scriptures, which are able to make thee wise unto salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus.
16
All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness:
17
That the man of God may be perfect, thoroughly furnished unto all good works.

Christian Acronym :: E.P.A

The Bible says that the lust of the flesh and of the eyes and the pride of life are of this world (i.e., of this environment) (1 John 2:16), but for all who believe in Christ Jesus, their citizenship is of heaven and not of this world (Philippians 3:20). Yet, we succumb to the pleasures and pressures of this world (environment) and we willfully disobey, sinning against our Creator God, who made us in His image, to be upright in His sight. The Psalmist states that the word of God, when it is hidden in one’s heart, protects that person from sinning against God (Psalm 119:11).

The word of God, when it is hidden in our heart, is the Environmental Protection Agency (E.P.A.) in our life, that keeps us from conforming to the patterns of this world (environment) but transforms us by renewing our minds.

Psalm 119:11 (KJV)
11 Thy word have I hid in mine heart, that I might not sin against thee.

Christian Acronym :: D.O.G

Gentile Lady: O Lord, Son of David; Have mercy on me as my daughter is vexed with a devil.
Gentle Lord: I am sent unto the lost sheep (of Israel)! Is it right to take that which belongs to the children (of Israel) and toss it to the dogs (gentiles)
Gentile Lady: Don’t the dogs eat the crumbs that fall from the master’s table? I am D.O.G (Depending On God), THE MASTER to toss a crumb of saving grace so that the evil that vexes my daughter may no longer be.
Gentle Lord: Great is your faith, woman. Be it unto thee as thou will.

A few hundred years earlier
Giant: Am I a dog that you must come after me with sticks?
Young man: I come in the Name of the living God, whom you have defied. I am D.O.G. (Depending On God) to deliver you into my hands and today, He will.
Giant: Cursed are you. Come to me and I will give you to the birds of the air and to the beasts of the fields.
Young man: From The MASTER’s table today, will fall the crumb of Salvation for the fearing lost sheep of Israel, and you, the evil giant that vexes the sheep, shall no longer be. I am Depending On God (D.O.G.)

Matthew 15:22-28 (KJV)
22
And, behold, a woman of Canaan came out of the same coasts, and cried unto him, saying, Have mercy on me, O Lord, thou son of David; my daughter is grievously vexed with a devil.
23
But he answered her not a word. And his disciples came and besought him, saying, Send her away; for she crieth after us.
24
But he answered and said, I am not sent but unto the lost sheep of the house of Israel.
25
Then came she and worshipped him, saying, Lord, help me.
26
But he answered and said, It is not meet to take the children’s bread, and to cast it to dogs.
27

28
Then Jesus answered and said unto her, O woman, great is thy faith: be it unto thee even as thou wilt. And her daughter was made whole from that very hour.

1 Samuel 17: 42-47 (KJV)
42
And when the Philistine looked about, and saw David, he disdained him: for he was but a youth, and ruddy, and of a fair countenance.
43
And the Philistine said unto David, Am I a dog, that thou comest to me with staves? And the Philistine cursed David by his gods.
44
And the Philistine said to David, Come to me, and I will give thy flesh unto the fowls of the air, and to the beasts of the field.
45
Then said David to the Philistine, Thou comest to me with a sword, and with a spear, and with a shield: but I come to thee in the name of the LORD of hosts, the God of the armies of Israel, whom thou hast defied.
46
This day will the LORD deliver thee into mine hand; and I will smite thee, and take thine head from thee; and I will give the carcases of the host of the Philistines this day unto the fowls of the air, and to the wild beasts of the earth; that all the earth may know that there is a God in Israel.
47
And all this assembly shall know that the LORD saveth not with sword and spear: for the battle is the LORD’s, and he will give you into our hands.

Christian Acronym :: C.I.A

Emperor Nero: I have heard of this new sect that call themselves “Christ-Ones”
Tacitus: Yes my lord, they are turning the world upside down. They are being perceived as being threats to the Roman empire.
Emperor Nero: What do they believe in?
Tacitus: C.I.A. my lord.
Emperor Nero: C.I.A?
Tacitus: Yes my lord, they believe that the Jewish carpenter who claimed to be the Son of God, the messiah –  “Christ Is Alive.” This is their faith, but it is not a dead faith, my lord. Their faith that C.I.A. makes them C.I.A. as well, my lord.
Emperor Nero: I don’t understand.
Tacitus: It is like this, my lord. The faith of the Christians that Christ Is Alive (C.I.A) makes them Christians In Action (C.I.A). They are willing to give their lives for their faith and no lion, wild beasts, or threat of being burnt alive, beheading or even crucifixion will waver their faith that Christ Is Alive. They exercise their faith in action (works), my lord.

1 Corinthians 15:11-14 (KJV)
11
Therefore whether it were I or they, so we preach, and so ye believed.
12
Now if Christ be preached that he rose from the dead, how say some among you that there is no resurrection of the dead?
13
But if there be no resurrection of the dead, then is Christ not risen:
14
And if Christ be not risen, then is our preaching vain, and your faith is also vain.

James 2:17 (KJV)
17 Even so faith, if it hath not works [action], is dead, being alone.
