    Hello Henry.

    I thought I saw a post of yours to me a few hours ago but I cannot find it now(?)

    Anyway you asked why a church servant has to resign if a member of his family leaves the faith. Is he responsible for that?

    Let's see what are the requirements for somebody to become an elder or a deacon (also a pastor since a pastor is selected from the body of elders).

    Titus 1:5-9 "For this cause left I thee in Crete, that thou shouldest set in order the things that are wanting, and ordain ELDERS in every city, as I had appointed thee:If any be blameless, the husband of one wife, HAVING FAITHFUL CHILDREN not accused of riot or unruly. For a BISHOP must be blameless, as the steward of God; not selfwilled, not soon angry, not given to wine, no striker, not given to filthy lucre;But a lover of hospitality, a lover of good men, sober, just, holy, temperate; Holding fast the faithful word as he hath been taught, that he may be able by sound doctrine both to exhort and to convince the gainsayers."

    As we see an elder is also called bishop in the early church.

    Also in 1 Timothy 3:1-7. Pay attention to verses 4-5 "One that ruleth well his own house, having his children in subjection with all gravity; For if a man know not how to rule his own house, how shall he take care of the church of God?"

    For deacons 1 Timothy 8-13. Verse 12 "Let the deacons be the husbands of one wife, ruling their children and their own houses well."

    We see that God places on elders and deacons the responsibility for the faith and the right governing of their house.

    Another requirement is that they have to be husband of one wife. That means that if their wifes die they have to resign since they can not keep their ministry if they get married again.

    The procedure in my church in such cases is that if our children for any reason leave the faith we wait for sometime (not specified) to return. But if after a reasonable amount of time they don't, then the church servants have to quit their ministry.

    Not so musch a comment but a question. I have read the scriptures hundreds of times. But yet 1 Timothy 2:12 still jumps out at me. I have seen a shift in which women are teaching, preaching, being called Pastors, Prophets, Apostles. What rea you thoughts on this in reference to 1 Timothey 2?

    Waiting is always the hardest. Waiting to hear from Him, waiting to do what is next. Contemplating the past, wondering about the future, how could we ever imagine that soon the nets will be so full ,we will be beside ourselves.

    That He will be waiting and watching as we struggle with His will! Who could have ever imagined, that obeying Him would lead to such a bounty! Soon the nets will not be able to hold the promises, and yet nothing shall be lost. Gather the fragments into the baskets, as we dine together. This one who leads us, we will follow, for He has been instructed on what to do! Can you hear Him say, Feed my lambs, feed my sheep, feed my sheep? Can you see the nets that are ready to burst?

    Waiting is always the hardest.

    Jesus Promised The Holy Spirit

    John 14:15-26

    15. If ye love me, keep my commandments.

    16. And I will pray the Father, and he shall give you another Comforter, that he may abide with you forever;

    17. Even the Spirit of truth; whom the world cannot receive, because it seeth have him not, nether knoweth him but ye know him; for he dwelleth with you, and shall be in you.

    18. I will not leave you comfortless: I will come to you.

    19. Yet a little while, and the world seeth me no more, but ye see me: because I live, ye shall live also.

    20. At that day ye shall know that I am in my Father, and ye are in me, and I in you.

    21. He that hath my commandments, and keepeth them, he it is that loveth me: and he that loveth me shall be loved of my Father, and I will love him, and will manifest myself to him.

    22. Judas saith unto him, not Iscariot, Lord how is it that thou wilt manifest thyself unto us, and not unto the world?

    23. Jesus answered and said unto him, If a man love me, he will keep my words: and my Father will love him, and we will come unto him, and make our obode with him.

    24. He that loveth me not keepeth not my sayings: and the word which ye hear is not mine, but the Father's which sent me.

    25. These things have I spoken unto you, being yet present with you.

    The Way, The Truth And The Light

    John 14:5-14

    5. Thomas saith unto him, Lord, we know not whither thou goest; and how can we know the way?

    6. Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.

    7. If ye had known me, ye should have known my Father also: and from henceforth ye know him, and have seen him.

    8. Philip saith unto him, Lord shew us the Father, and it sufficeth us.

    9. Jesus saith unto him, Have I been so long time with you, and yet hast thou not known me, Philip? he that hath seen me hath seen the Father; and how sayest thou then, shew us the Father?

    10. Believest thou not that I am in the Father, and the Father in me? the words that I speak unto you I speak not of myself: but the Father that dwelleth in me, he doeth the works.

    11. Believe me that I am in the Father, and the Father in me: or else believe me for the very works sake.

    12. Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do, because I go unto my Father.

    13. And whatsoever ye shall ask in my name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son.

    14. If ye shall ask any thing in my name, I will do it.

    The Testimony Of John The Baptist

    John 1:19-28

    19. And this is the record of John when the Jews sent priest and Levites from Jerusalem to ask him, Who art thou?

    20. And he confessed, and denied not; but confessed,I am not Christ.

    21. And they asked him, What then? Art thou Elias? And he saith, I am not, Art thou that prophet? And he answered, no.

    22. Then said they unto him, Who art thou? that we may give an answer to them that sent us. What sayest thou of thyself?

    23. He said, I am the voice of one crying in the wilderness, Make straight the way of the Lord, as said the prophet Esaias .

    24. And they were sent were of the Pharisees.

    25. And they asked him, and said unto him, Why baptized thou then, if thou be not that Christ, nor Elias, neither that prophet?

    26. John answered them, saying, I baptize with water: but there standeth one among you, whom ye know not;

    27. He it is, who coming after me is preferred before me, whose shoe's latchet I am not worthy to loose.

    28. These things were done in Bethabara beyond Jordan, where John was baptizing.

    QJohn 16:12-3 But he that is spiritual judgeth all things, yet he himself is judged of no man. For who hath known the mind of the Lord, that he may instruct him? But we have the mind of Christ. 1 Corinthians 2:15-16. Grace be to you and peace from God the Father, and from our Lord Jesus Christ, Who gave himself for our sins, that he might deliver us from this present evil world, according to the will of God and our Father: To whom be glory for ever and ever. Amen. Galatians 1:3-5. All I can tell us is thismemorize your KJV Bible. Save as many as your love one's. Be patient. Listen more and speak less. Love your spouse deeply.

There is a spiritual message in Job 20:1-29. Be careful for nothing Philippians 4:6. Hebrews 10:31, but Revelation 21:8. I comfort you with these 1 Thessalonians 4:15-18. As you walk in the Spirit of God, Proverbs 23:4-5. Those who are in Spirit understand Psalm 90:10 read the whole chapter. Our meditation be Psalms 91:1:16 memorize and our prayers today be Psalms 55:1-23. Peace.
  • Richard H Priday on Revelation 21 - 1 year ago
    Revelation 21 Eternity

    I would like to look at this book with a LITERAL approach. When we consider the verse in 2 Peter 3:10 we see the same word for smallest particle (signifying an atom) as being dissolved.

    Scientists; of course understand the basic structure of the atom and that it is held together by various forces; but ultimately don't understand WHY these exist; along with the concept of decay and or death based on the 2nd law of thermodynamics; gravity; and of course what happened BEFORE the universe came into existence. It seems clear here that when this event occurs; that there is a reconfiguration of the solid matter; and such a fire would immediately vaporize the oceans. (verse 1). When we see in verse 2 a city with these literal dimensions coming down to earth that would facilitate a final change in the structure of the earth and clearly make Jerusalem visible worldwide (being over 1000 miles high.)

    Since God follows a logical sequence; we see how when in the vial judgments all life in the sea perished; we have a lifeless ocean that is now completely removed. The prophecy in Ezekiel 47:10-12 shows how fish proliferate in the inland sea area of the Dead Sea during the Millennium and likely beyond as well; with water from the heavenly city brining fresh water to revitalize things (as already is starting to occur).

    Verses 3 through 4 show how until this point tears are still part of the lives at least of mortal men. Those who are righteous and stand before the throne seeing all these things happen at the last judgment surely will be overcome with emotion. Their tears are wiped away; and finally there is no mor death; mourning; crying or pain. This reflects 1 Cor 15:26 and an even earlier verse in Hosea where death is finally defeated is mentioned later in the same chapter (v. 55-57). Again; some to justify doctrines try to make these passages symbolic.

    How can we not do violence to scriptures doing this?

  • Ronnette Part 2 Galatians 1 Only God can explain this well.Glory to God! on Galatians 1:16 - 1 year ago
    Galatians 1:19 Paul did not see any other apostles but James the brother of Jesus. Now read on and absorbed what God revealed to us. There is a reason why this verse is important. Other Scholars said that the Book of James was written by James the brother of Jesus. How could that be? The message in James was that faith without works is dead James 2:20 & James 2:26. How can you explained the opposition on Pauls messages Ephesians 2:8-9? It is because the author of James is James the brother of John the sons of Zebedee. That James was killed by King Herod Acts 12:2 about 44 AD or CE. He was not seen by Paul after Paul went to Arabia. That James had written the book of James before James died to tell the 12 tribes what is about to happened in the tribulation ( my opinion after the church age will be raptured) James 1:1. If this was written by James the brother of Jesus, he would have not contradicted what he heard from Paul because he saw Paul right after Paul went to Arabia Galatians 1:17-19. The second part of 2 Timothy 2:15 we are not ashamed to tell all that we must rightly divide the word of truth. Know the physical and spiritual messages of God. It is only revealed when you trust Jesus and not yourself. If you do not rightly divide you will be confuse of your salvation. We are saved by the blood of Jesus Christ. Amazing God we have. I glorify God by telling you this revelation. I please only God and not men. My life is a true testament of God's glory. Who has the mind of God Romans 11:33-36, 1 Corinthians 2:15-16. My brothers and sisters in Christ, if you are a leader in church, let the Spirit of God speaks to you..Take, I pray thee, my blessing that is brought to thee; because God hath dealt graciously with me, and because I have enough. And he urged him, and he took it. Genesis 33:11. But he said, As the LORD liveth, before whom I stand, I will receive none. And he urged him to take it; but he refused.

    Galatians 1:4-5 Amen. Galatians 1:3.
  • Ronnette Part 1 Galatians 1 on Galatians 1:16 - 1 year ago
    Very nicely explained by Henry in 1710. This chapter speaks so loud to me that there is a need to share. First, the fact that we all know in Acts what happened in Damascus when Paul was converted. Here Paul uses the words to tell the readers in Spiritual way that He is in fact chosen by Jesus Christ 1:1 and became a servant of Christ 1:10. Paul even certified that he received the gospel 1 Corinthians 15:1-4 not from man, but it is indeed by the revelation of Jesus Christ 1 :10-11. To certify something is indeed really deep in any professions. You investigate, you observe, you speak the truth, you have proven without a shadow of a doubt, you interviews people involved, you have all strong evidence, you even travel to a place to find that true evidence, you rely only on facts and the person that has integrity to tell truth. I guess you get the gist. The fact that he went to Arabia (Mt. Sinai) 1:17 God must have told Paul something that only Paul knows. Remember 2 Corinthians 12:1-4? How can you not think Paul is the 12th Apostle with this evidence? That is why 1 Timothy 2:15 tells us to study. Go figure and look at other Bible other than KJV. They removed the word "study". Folks I am not kidding you. There is something real God is telling us today. I would not lie either about this because I sense the urgency to tell this forum for whatever reason God only knows. Anyway, Paul then saw Peter for 15 days 1:18 and imagined the conversations then between Peter and Paul. In Acts Peter is telling everybody WHO they crucified was God. Then Paul revelation was that blood of Jesus Christ will saved the whole world if you believe and trust and have faith on that alone Romans 3:25. Not of works just by faith Ephesians 2:8-9. What a profound revelation. You do not want to be accursed 1:9 outside 1 Corinthians 15:1-4. We will be judged according to Paul's gospel Romans 2:16, Romans 16:25, 2 Timothy 2:8.

    What is temptation? How does it come? When you are alone, as Jesus was? If so, How will you recover! What is the cover?

    These instances, God opens the doors that allow just enough darkness in, that we might see if only a shadow of things as they are, and the things to come!

    How loving He is, giving us a glimpse of His power and glory! Redeeming us every second of every day! That we have an escape, If only for moment, as He allows us to know the power of His glory! Is, real, as the life we have in Him!

    You see, this is how He works! This is how He strengthens the soul! This is the manna from heaven! This is the bread of life!

    Temptation God allows. He is the one that allows Satan. The Father's will is to make us stronger!

    Christ knows His own word! He knows the power of it! He knows that the laws of heaven and earth rotate and evolve from it! He knows all things!

    Satan must follow after, if only for a little while! Soon to be frustrated once again, only by the power of His word!

    We should always reflect on these things, these things that our Lord DIED for. We once again inherit the knowledge of knowing the truth! The wisdom to know the difference between reflective faith, and actual faith! How temptation reveals Satan's weakness's and strengthens us! The soul that believes will never be conquered! The soul of those who obey His word!

    Thanks be to our Lord Jesus Christ!

    Part 1

    Hello dear brothers/sisters.

    Some thoughts...

    John 14:26

    "But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, HE SHALL TEACH YOU ALL THINGS, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you".

    The above verse is often misinterpreted by many christians mainly in the reborn section of christianity, since the main stream denominations have a solid and unchangable theology(R or W). Many believers take the above verse especially the phrase "he (the Holly Spirit) shall teach you all things" as something that happens personally to individuals. So they(we) think that every thought, explanation, interpretation,etc that pops in our mind is literally given by the Spirit. We claim that we have a genuine love to understand the Word of God, so God replies back to our search for His truth, by revealing His truth to every person that looks for that Truth. But is that so? Does that is that is meant by the above verse? Well, not really. If that was the case then everybody would come to the same result. But what we see in practice is that there are so many and so much different beliefs between us that they are often like the day infront of night. But why? Isn't God's Word not right? Isn't that a promise from God? So what is happening? We often attribute the various beliefs to a non genuine love for the truth, manipulating verses to fit our own ideas, ignorance sometimes of the Word of God and many other that we like to think that others do, not us.

    The truth is that the above verse is applicable TO THE CHURCH, not to any individual. God has placed the ministries in the church like pastors, teachers, apostles, evangelists, prophets to ... Ephesians 4:12-14 "For the perfecting of the saints, for the work of the ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ:Till we all come in the unity of the faith, and of the knowledge of the Son of God, unto a perfect man, unto the measure of the stature of the fulness of Christ ...".
