Our Spirit

I greet you in Jesus’ precious name! It is Thursday morning, the 15th of May, 2025, and this is your friend, Angus Buchan, with a thought for today.

We go to the first book of the Bible, the Book of Genesis 1:27:

”So God created man in His own image; in the image of God He created him; male and female He created them.”

Then we go to the Book of Colossians 1:27 which says:

”…Christ in you, the hope of glory.”

I don’t care what anybody says, the Bible tells me very clearly, we did not evolve from animals, from monkeys. We were created specifically by God, and you and I have a free choice today, whether we want to serve Him or not. He’s given us the freedom to choose. You see I’ve got cattle on this farm. They don’t get any choice. Those cattle do not have a spirit in them. We have a spirit in us. That’s why we are different to the creation of the world.

We were made in three parts - body, soul and spirit. The body is your physical appearance. The soul is your character, your personality. There are no two people who have the same character or the same personality or the same set of fingerprints. Each and everyone, can you believe that? I don’t how many billion people there are on the world today but there’s not two people who have the same fingerprints because God made us, and that is why you and I need to be born again. Who said that? Jesus said that. He says, ”Unless you are born again, you’ll never see the Kingdom of Heaven.”

You know, this is a very important thing I want to say to you today, my dear friend. The spirit of a man never, ever dies. His body dies, it goes from dust to dust, but his spirit lives forever. Now we need to be sure that when we die we are going to heaven and not going to hell, and that is why we preach with such passion to people. I used to say it myself, I want to be honest with you, ”Let’s eat, drink and be merry because tomorrow we die.” No we don’t die. You either go to heaven to be with Jesus forever or to hell.

My dear old mother, I loved her so much, and I’m going to see her one day in heaven. Just after I had given my life to the Lord, I went to visit her one day, and she was crying. I said, ”Why are you crying mom?” She said, ”Because it’s different, Angus. It’s not the same anymore.” I said, ”Why?” And then I realised my mom had recognised that I had changed. The Spirit of God was within me. Today, tell people about Jesus.

God bless you and goodbye.
