“We can talk
about CHRIST and quote Scriptures all day long…but people will only Believe Us When
They See Us Put to Practice What We Preach!”
Matthew
7:20-23 “Yes, just as You Can IDENTIFY a Tree by its FRUIT, so You Can IDENTIFY
People by their ACTIONS. Not everyone who CALLS out to ME, ‘LORD, LORD.’ will
Enter The KINGDOM of HEAVEN. Only those who Actually DO the Will of MY Father
in HEAVEN will Enter. Many will say to ME on That Day, ‘LORD, LORD; have We Not
PROPHESIED in Your Name, CAST out demons in Your name, and Done Many WONDERFUL Works
in Your Name?’ But then I will Declare to Them, ‘I Never Knew You. Depart from
ME, You who PRACTICE Evil.’”
Matthew 23:3
“So PRACTICE and OBEY whatever They Tell You, but DON’T FOLLOW Their EXAMPLE.
For They DON’T PRACTICE what They Teach.”
“Don’t Fake
It To Make It With JESUS! Be Blessed,” Pastor Bob Harris
“I am
crucified with CHRIST: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but CHRIST lives in me.
And the life that I now live in the flesh, I live by The Faith of The Son of
GOD, Who loved me and gave Himself for me.” Galatians 2:20
“The
disciple is one in whom self-interest and pride and self-sufficiency have been
completely erased.” Oswald Chamber
“No one is
holy like The LORD, for there is none besides YOU, nor is there any rock like
our GOD.” 1 Samuel 2:2 spoken by Hannah, Samuel’s mother.
“So JESUS
said to them again, ‘Peace to You! As The Father has sent Me, I also send you.’
And when He had said this, He breathed on them, and said to them, ‘Receive The
HOLY SPIRIT. If you forgive the sins of any , they are forgiven them; if you
retain the sins of any they are retained.’” John 20:21-23
The Bible
only teaches two themes; total obedience and submission to GOD and preaching
The Gospel! Anything else while interesting and informative can lead us away
from these two things that GOD Requires of us. Be careful of any teaching from
The Bible that does not lead us back to one or both of these two themes.
“And
moreover, because the Preacher was wise, he still taught the people knowledge;
yes, he pondered and sought out and set in order many proverbs. The Preacher
sought to find acceptable words; and what was written was upright–words of
truth. The words of the wise are like goads, and the words of scholars are like
well–driven nails, given by one Shepherd. And further, my son, be admonished by
these. Of making many books there is no end, and much study is wearisome to the
flesh. Let us hear the conclusion of the whole matter; Fear GOD and Keep HIS
Commandments, for this is man’s all. For GOD will bring every work into
judgment, including every secret thing.” Ecclesiastes 12:9-14
“With what
shall I come before The LORD, and bow myself before The High GOD? Shall I come
before Him with burnt offerings, with claves a year old? Will The LORD be
pleased with thousands of rams, ten thousand rivers of oil? Shall I give my
firstborn for my transgression, the fruit of my body for the sin of my soul?He
has shown you O man, what is good; and what does The LORD require of you but to
do justly, to love mercy, and to walk humbly with your GOD?” Micah 6:6-8
