God emphasizes the need for inner circumcision in Deuteronomy 10:12-16.God has promised
to do it for us and the holy spirit will dwell in us. "If they confess their iniquity and the
iniquity of their forefathers, in their unfaithfulness which they committed against me, and
also in their acting with hostility against Me.(Leviticus 26:40-41) By believing in Jesus and
putting your faith alone in Him, you have the circumcision of Christ. Eight is related to time
and season.
Eight is very central to Christianity. God saved eight people on the from Noahs ark in order
to have a new beginning for mankind after the flood. The New Testament was penned by only
eight men: Matthew, Mark, Luke, John, James, Peter, Jude, and Paul. The father of believers
Abraham had 8 sons in total. There were eight the miracles of Elijah. The first-born and
sacrifices were to be given to God on the eighth day in Exodus 22:29-30.
Christians should believe in the resurrection of Jesus. Resurrection of Jesus shows that we
nothing is impossible with God. Jesus was selected as the Lamb to remove man's sins
according to John 12: 28 - 29. Jesus showed himself alive eight times after his resurrection
from the dead according to the bible( Mark 16:9 - 1, Luke 24, John 20:19 - 24, John 20:26
29,1Corinthians 15:4 7,Matthew 28:16 17,John 21:1 24 and Acts 1.).
There is an anonymous acronym of August that has gone viral in whatsapp groups.
A.U.G.U.S.T stands for Ask until God Unveils Something Tangible.
Happy new month.
