Lawlessness

 

Lawlessness promotes divisiveness & bitterness 

1 Timothy 6:3-5 NKJV If anyone teaches otherwise & does not consent to wholesome words, even the words of our Lord Jesus Christ & to the doctrine which accords with godliness, 4 he is proud knowing nothing, but is obsessed with disputes & arguments over words, from which come envy, strife, reviling , evil suspicions, 5 useless wranglings of men of corrupt minds & destitute of the truth, who supposes that godliness is a means of gain. From such withdraw yourself. 

Lawlessness promotes ungodliness: 2 Timothy 2 :15-16 NKJV Be diligent to present yourself approved to God, a worker who does not need to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth. 16 But shun profane and idle babblings, for they will increase to more ungodliness. Blessed is the man who walks not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor stands in the path of sinners nor sits in the seat of the scornful. 

Lawless= Sin: 1 John 3:4-6 Whoever commits sin also commits lawlessness, and sin is lawlessness. 5 And you know that He was manifested to take away our sins, and in Him there is no sin. 6 Whoever abides in Him does not sin. Whoever sins has neither seen Him nor known Him.

1.   Lawlessness is rebelling against God’s word and ways

2.   What John has given here is a correction to a false teaching that had appeared.

3.   Evidently sin was disregarded and John is addressing it….

4.   Any deed in opposition to God and His nature is sinning against Him

5.   Romans 4:7 quotes Psalm 32:1…..7-8…NKJV 7 Blessed are those whose lawless deeds are forgiven, & whose sins are covered.

6.   Numbers 14:18 makes a connection between sin and Acts of lawlessness..The LORD is long-suffering and abundant in mercy, forgiving iniquity and transgression; but He by no means clears the guilty visiting the iniquity of the fathers on the children to the third and the fourth generation.

7.   From the Dake’s study Bible: whoever sins against God, him God will blot out of His book ( Exodus 32:33)

8.   Refusing to repent, is refusing God’s means of salvation

9.   Until they turn to Him, He punishes…..accordingly for their sins: John 3:16……verse 19 and this is the condemnation, that the light has come into the world, & men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil. & v 21 but he who does the truth comes to the light, that his deeds may be clearly seen, that they have been done in God.., Luke 13:1-5 (repent or perish), Romans 10:9-10, 1 John 1:9

Blessed is the man who walks not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor stands in the path of sinners nor sits in the seat of the scornful. Today we choose!

 

Allegiance to His Coming Kingdom: Born into this world and living within the United States, we are to be the good citizens who appreciate those privileged and many opportunities that have come to us from the forefathers who settled this nation as a constitutional Republic, not a democratic society. It is aligning ourselves with the one true God. Battles have been fought, and conflicts remain, still we are to submit to the nation’s laws and regulations as long as they do not conflict with the command of Almighty God,  that is His word! (we are seeing some parts out of control) Yes, the lawless are appearing!                                                                    

His doctrine is of truth for a righteous life lived out in a conduct that is loving others but is also obeying that which is written in His word. We must look through the lens of eternity and know that without discipleship under His leadership we come to the end of ourselves, have lives not worthy for spit.

In Closing: Living for God, is living life in abundance that Jesus came to give us. It is following that doctrine He set in place before His crucifixion. We should be seeking that radical world that is coming & as He calls out His followers, we understand the evil that remains is against that coming new world where Jesus is King.

YOU can recognize them today. They neither acknowledge nor teach the narrow way to life that is subject to persecution. Jesus certainly was persecuted as was Paul, Peter, James  and John. They found life in Jesus and found the narrow way where the believer does not back down or move from adversity when it is against God’ s truth.

In our speaking, do we reveal Jesus, is eternity on our minds…..for God would certainly NOT bring that gift of eternity to him who chases after fleshly things. They will never be found in the presence of God .

Jesus gave us His peace.. …. John 14 : 27 Peace I leave with you, MY peace I give to you; not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.

Blessed is the man who walks not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor stands in the path of sinners nor sits in the seat of the scornful. Today we choose!

Psalm 1: Blessed (happy, fortunate, prosperous and enviable) is the man who walks and lives  not in the counsel of the ungodly [ following their advice, their plans & purposes] , nor stands [submissive & inactive] in the path where sinners walk, nor sits down [to relax & rest] where the scornful & the mockers gather. 2 But his delight and desire is in the law of the LORD and on His law (the precepts, the instructions, the teachings of God)  he habitually meditates (ponders and studies) by day & by night.  3 And he shall be like a tree firmly planted and tended] by the streams of water, ready to bring forth its fruit in its season, its leaf also shall not fade or wither; & everything he does shall prosper [& come to maturity].

4 Not so the wicked [those disobedient & living without God are not so]. But are like the chaff [worthless, dead, without substance] which the wind drives away. 5 Therefore the wicked [ those disobedient and living without God] shall not stand [justified] in the judgment, nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous [ those who are upright and in right standing with God.

 6 For the LORD knows and is fully acquainted with the way of the righteous, but the way of the ungodly [ those living outside God’s will ] shall perish ( end in ruin and come to naught).

1.   The righteous one has substance: the word of God

2.   They rehearse His words day and night

3.   The chaff is blown around by adversity

4.   A godly life is birthed out of a godly relationship with God

5.   It is only through Him do we see real change in lives

Walking in Him is real change: denoting activity involvement with movement; Godly counsel is needed in our activity in movement involving others as your work place, in family gatherings, in sports activities, more closely seen with your spouse, your child, maybe a friend. Living out of the godly account…..

Flattery

 

Spent time reading and hopefully retaining a teaching I was hearing. Hearing a teaching today from Keith Moore. And I have some recorded for later this week and month. But this one captured my hearing when he talked of the meanings in Genesis 1.  Then I thought of Genesis 3!

Genesis 3: 7 Then the eyes of both of them were opened, and they knew that they were naked; and they sewed fig leaves together and made themselves coverings. 8  And they heard the sound of the LORD God walking in the garden in the cool of the day, and Adam and his wife hid themselves from the presence of the Lord God among the trees of the garden. 9  Then the LORD God called to Adam and said to him, Where are you?"  10  So he said, "I heard Your voice in the garden, and I was afraid because I was naked; and i hid myself."   11 And He said, "Who told you that you were naked?  Have you eaten from the tree of which i commanded you that you should not eat?"  12  Then the man said, "The woman whom You gave to be with me, she gave me of the tree, and I ate.  13 And the LORD God said to the woman, 'What is this you have done?' The woman said, "The serpent deceived me, and I ate." 14  So the LORD God said to the serpent: "Because you have done this, You are cursed more than all cattle, and more than every beast of the field; on your belly you shall go, and you shall eat dust all the days of your life. 15  And I will put enmity between you and the woman, and between your seed and her seed; He shall bruise your head and you shall bruise His heel."

This is divination on the part of the serpent.

He chose to get close to the one weak. He could smell her scent for fruit! God told the serpent that he would eat the dust all the days of his life. Enmity was going to between you and woman. It was between your seed and her seed. He shall bruise your head and you shall bruise His heel.

Ever encountered a couple being divorced or may one spouse is up to no good. But news gets out and you find that the serpent got close to your family or maybe a friend.  There is no good between that which the serpent has used his flesh. He walked before God and after this he covered fleshly things.  He gets close to speak but also to smell the scents given off by the people he is after.

Sin was smelled by the serpent and following close he continues his prowl. He gets close by slithering closer and wraps around the head and chest to close off fresh air to your lungs.

Genesis 3:9-11 NKJV Then the LORD God called to Adam and said to him, “Where are you?” 10 So he said, “I heard Your voice in the garden, and I was afraid because I was naked; and I hid myself.” 11 And He said, “Who told you that you were naked? Have you eaten from tree which I commanded you that you should not eat?”

1.      Hid: cha-baw (2244) means to secrete….to discharge or generate a secret

2.      To place out of sight, conceal, to shroud

3.      To emit: to send out as a discharge into the environment

4.      One who slinks, sneaks, one who is coward, a snake

Colossians 3:3-5 Amplified Bible 3 For [as far as this world is concerned] you have died, and your [new, real] life is hidden with Christ in God. 4 When Christ, Who is our life, appears, the you also will appear with Him [in the splendor of His] glory. 5 So kill (deaden, deprive of power) the evil desire lurking in your members [those animal impulses and all that is earthly in you that employed in sin]; sexual vice, impurity, sensual appetites, unholy desires, and all greed and covetousness, for that is idolatry (the deifying of self and other created things instead of God).

Secrets! Secrets and Secrets! Flattery is emitted by the one who is choosing to cross the boundary lines. To HIDE out....to generate a secret. One that is concealed and out of sight. But leaves covered Adam and Eve....hearing the Spirit of God speak still they basked in sin on earth!!!

Hiding will Not Expand the Kingdom of God! Flattery for five minutes might get you into trouble and if not repenting, then you abide in that sin and in darkness.

Luke 13:20-22  NKJV  And again He said, “To what shall I liken the kingdom of God? 21 it is like leaven, which a woman took and hid in three measures of meal till it was leavened.”

1.      The kingdom of God active in and through us would be seen as faith and love exuding from us

2.      That kingdom is seen and revealed from heart to heart

  

Matthew 13:33-34  Amplified Bible 33 He told them another parable. The kingdom of heaven is like leaven (sour dough) which a woman took and covered over in three measures of meal or flour till all of it was leavened. 34 These things all take together Jesus said to the crowds in parables; indeed without a parable He said nothing to them.

1.      That special property within the bread brings change, so to the kingdom will come

2.      Each individual changes, sometimes silently, sometimes in dramatic ways,  but sown slowly, will progress into that which is desired

3.      As the temples of God we are to be changed that represents Him in every value to our mind, will and emotions…by the Holy Spirit we are made to prosper and not to be hindered.                                                                                                                

 Galatians 5:5-9  Amplified Bible 5 For we, [not relying on the Law but] through the [Holy] Spirit’s [help], by faith anticipate and wait for the blessing and good for which our righteousness and right standing with God [our conformity to His will in purpose, thought, and action, causes us to hope. 6 For [if we are] in Christ Jesus, neither circumcision nor un-circumcision counts for anything, but only faith activated and energized and expressed and working through love. 7 You are running your race nobly. Who has interfered in (hindered and stopped you from ) heeding and following the Truth? 8 This [evil] persuasion is not from Him Who called you [Who invited you to freedom in Christ]. 9 A little leaven ( a slight inclination to error, or a few false teachers) leavens the whole lump [it perverts the whole conception of faith or misleads the whole church].

Who was your teacher , or who was your guide in righteousness? Did someone touch your ego with a word you have never heard? Is someone trying to touch you in unrighteous ways? Truth is to will out for God in this situation. If you have another and their kids....seed will sprout in trouble, sometimes revenge and hate. Not good if you just wanted five minutes of fun. Sin has a high price, it can look like a tattoo but have a meaning for evil and not for God. Sin takes you longer down the road to sin, especially if you have strong desire to want to sin! YIKES

No flattery please! Like to hear the pleasant words of the Lord that gives strength as we walk in stronger light that speaks future tense of His coming soon.

WE are Preparing the soil of America for the seed of the gospel, for truth and for great change in the teachings we send out weekly. WE Prepare the way for Christ to come to our land, as we continue to appeal, continue to decree, releasing Kingdom authority and God’s will on earth.

Loves Our Nation

Luke 7:1-10 NKJV Now when He concluded all His sayings in the hearing of the people, He entered Capernaum. 2 And a certain centurion's servant, who was dear to him, was sick and ready to die. 3 So when he heard about Jesus, he sent elders of the Jews to Him, pleading with Him to come and heal his servant. 4 And when they came to Jesus, they begged Him earnestly,saying that the one for whom He should do this was deserving, 5 "for he loves our nation, and has built us a synagogue." 6 Then Jesus went with them. And when He was already not far from the house, the centurion sent friends to Him, saying to Him, "Lord, do not trouble Yourself, for I am not worthy that You should enter under my roof. 7 Therefore I did not even think myself worthy to come to You. But say the word and my servant will be healed. 8 " For I also am a man placed under authority, having soldiers under me. And I say to one, 'Go and he goes; and to another, 'Come and he comes; and to my servant, 'Do this' and he does it." 9 When Jesus heard these things, He marveled at him; and turned around and said to the crowd that followed Him, "I say to you I have not found such great faith; not even in Israel!" 10 And those who were sent, returning to the house, found the servant well who had been sick.

Now this text is also given in Matthew 8:5-13. And the book of Matthew was written to the Jewish person. The book of Luke was written to the Greek. Decades I heard this taught and thought always that Jesus was speaking to the centurion personally.....you know face to face. But when you put this text from Luke 7 next to it...Jesus was talking with those sent by the centurion! (first elders, then friends)

Now if this occurred today, the person would ask Jesus to come and when He said yes, this same person would put on a big-to-do for the event that Jesus was coming to heal someone. You would most likely see maybe a news network covering this event and how excited they were Jesus was coming to heal someone within their house, or family.

But according to this specific passage, Jesus is talking with those sent by the centurion in that he, the centurion, did not think himself worthy to stand before Jesus. Wow, what humility in a man, even though he had many men who took orders from him in the daily operations of the military.
But I want to point you to something specific here in that the centurion in verse 5 said "for he loves our nation and has built a synagogue."
This man had built us a synagogue for Israel. He also said the man loved Israel. Remembering this passage in Psalm 122:6-9 Pray for the peace of Jerusalem; "May they prosper who love you. 7 Peace be within your walls, prosperity within your palaces." 8 For the sake of my brethren and companions, "I will now say, Peace be within you." 9 Because of the house of the LORD our God I will seek your good.

As we know of the house of the LORD, there is to be worship to God, having revelation of Him, to have unity among believers and to have God's justice. AND we are to seek the LORD'S good!

A man sought to seek out Jesus for his servant who was very ill and at the point of death. This centurion, even though a leader with much authority still kept his place in that pointed which pointed to faith that works. And this man's faith was that Jesus was and is the Healer! Within that, the centurion wanted Jesus to know what this man had done to see that Israel had another synagogue and how he loved the nation Israel.

Can that be said of us and would it be spoken about? Do we love Israel? Do we send monies to help love Jerusalem, to love Israel's people or are we those who kick Israel to the curb and use our monies to fund another 7 days at some theme park with water slides and the such?

Illness can certainly come to people. NOT that we should go looking for sickness but that we have to have proper foods and proper sleep to maintain a healthy body. Stress should be removed and loving others should be our priority. Yet, I wonder how many become ill and have not done anything to prosper. I wonder how many forget Israel and forget Jesus is a Jew!
Praying for the peace of Jerusalem was expecting an orderly society. Jerusalem the city of peace was to live up to the prayer being spoken over it.

The centurion sent first elders( verse 3) of the synagogue to speak with Jesus and then he sent others (friends)  while he stayed with the sick man under his roof!  He spoke this of this in (verse 6) saying, 'Lord do not trouble Yourself, for I am not worthy that You should enter under my roof. Verse 7: "Therefore I did not even think myself worthy to come to You but say the word and my servant will be healed.
Jesus spoke this in John 15:12-13 This is My commandment, that you love one another as I have loved you. 13"Greater love has no one than this, than to lay down one's life for his friends. 14 "You are my friends if you do whatever I command you.

In pertaining to life, Christ Jesus is our example. He was and is always the supreme example of love on the earth! In the above we read of a man who gave through his responsible actions to help the Jewish people have a synagogue. His unselfish manner proved his love for that nation! Sacrifices produce peace and unity with God. And those who submit to the burden of bearing one's responsibilities before God is seen. Love and sacrifice is given by the ill man and the centurion in authority. He did not demand his way!  No, he sought the Lord in the manner worthy of He greater than any sickness or disease.
If you are ill today, have you built a synagogue? Have you loved the nation Israel? Have you pulled out your debit card or checkbook and sent monies to help an evangelist in Israel or send a pastor from this nation of America to minister the truth of God through Jesus Christ?
In this we should obey God! I certainly pulled out my checkbook and wrote a check to slap the devil in the face when confronted with something that affected my eyes. YOU want to mess with me devil ....."I will show you...here in this writing" and I did  and sent it to that place where Israel is given the word of God for salvation's.
Father God began this process and did it by loving those who did not even know Him. And the Son was sent and He obeyed the Father by the giving of His life in that which was not of royalty, or anything regal, but was of death and sacrifice on the Cross that represented shame. But the joy that was set before Him, He Jesus endured the Cross and came out on the other side victoriously. (Hebrews 12:2)
Today, if something of sickness has come to your house, ask yourself if you have prayed for the peace of Jerusalem and have you loved Israel in ways that will prosper you and your loved ones? For God will perform HIS word in our lives when we speak, believe it and act on it.
To God be all the glory.....Amen!

The Public Display

The Public Display

Matthew 15:2-3 Why do Your disciples transgress and violate the rules handed down by the elders of the past? For they do not practice [ceremonially] washing their hands before they eat. 3 He replied to them, And why do you transgress and violate the commandment of God for the sake of the rules handed down to you by your forefathers (the elders)?
Thayers Lexicon:3845 (parabaino) to overstep, to neglect, to violate...to transgress...

Jesus was reminding them it was of more importance to obey the commandments of God than to obey those ceremonially rules set down by men!
2 John 9 Amplified Bible 9 anyone who runs on ahead [of God] and does not abide in the doctrine of Christ [who is not content with what He taught] does not have God; but he who continues to live in the doctrine (teaching) of Christ [does have God], he has both the Father and the Son.

Willing to transgress what God has given is foolish indeed!

willful: with set purpose; self-determined; without yielding to reason; obstinate; stubborn
From 3845 parabaino :to transgress in a defiant will; someone who knows the right way but chooses to go their own way in contrariness
Psalm 101:2 I will behave myself wisely and give heed to the blameless way---O when will You come to me? I will walk within my house in integrity and with a blameless heart.

Yeah the heart has a lot to do with our following God. Staying in His protection, knowing Him is to give heed to His way of righteousness! That if we are in Him, we are to remain within that righteous walk that is holiness!  He is perfection, He is the mighty God, our Counsel.
Filling our heart with His kind of peace and wisdom, then we will truly know Him and follow a good path!

If you read on in Psalm 101 you become aware that following God is really about having nothing to do with evil and the evil person or thing close to us. Being aware of what God has given those who follow Him are those who will not slander his neighbor and will not tolerate the haughty look. For truly our eyes should be on those who walk faithfully with God and always looking out for the neighbor.

Was thinking of all the headlines today and those marching for some cause! Then I remembered the one anchor person of a news program mentioned a 'peaceful protest'. Now how did they come up with that?
Let's see: protest has the meaning of complaint, objection, or display of unwillingness usually to an idea or to course of action . Will publicly display their approval....by an organized demonstration of their disapproval.
Then peaceful has the meaning: a peaceful place; not involving war, violence; without worry and excitement.
The Longman Dictionary of Contemporary English: peaceful people do not like violence and do not behave in a violent manner.

God is not only supreme in power and authority, but He is also supreme in judgment. In the greatness of God,  His very mind pierces through all of the justifications we make to excuse our bad attitudes and conduct as measured against His righteous standard.

Oh yeah, God has a righteous standard!

If we are truly followers and find our trust wholly in Him, then we would have faith to recognize and know His justice and be willing to operate in it.

We are not be followers of the world, but followers of Jesus Christ. And just like Jesus, we can come under persecution. But we are to remain faithful to God and know He loves us greatly to send His Son to die for us. So being reminded of God and His sense of justice, we must consider carefully what it is we are focused on and is it for His glory or for me to make a stand for me?
Again, it comes back to the attitude of our heart.

So in planning to go out for a 'march' we must consider is this a small thing. Could this be something of an event that will make no impact if it is done in being peaceful? Do we ask Him if it is good for us to do this? Or is this just a whim? Certainly there are many causes in the world today, but what we think of as the little matter may turn out for bad thing, the bad road and destruction to us.

Facing serious consequences will truly be known when we go outside the boundary of God. He is firm about us being obedient to His word. We are reminded in Romans 1: 18-21 Amplified Bible this: 18 For God's  [holy] wrath and indignation are revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who in their wickedness repress and hinder the truth and make it inoperative. 19 For that which is known about God is evident to them and made plain in their consciousness, because God [Himself] has shown it to them. 20 For ever since the creation of the world His invisible nature and attributes , that is, His eternal power and divinity have been made intelligible and clearly discernible in and through the thing that have been made (His handiworks). So [men] are without excuse (altogether with any defense or justification. 21 Because when they knew and recognized Him as God, they did not honor and glorify Him as God or give Him thanks. But instead they became futile and godless in their thinking [with vain imaginings, foolish reasoning, and stupid speculations] and their senseless minds were darkened.

Yikes! Without God who is Light, then man's mind is darkened. The man operating out of  "the darkened mind" is given over to speculation. In their speculating, they will act out as the fool for they are given no firm evidence. They operate out of wrong beliefs, that false evidence and move in places void of peace, or life! Without the truth of God, they move into the arena of their own opinion, explore by taking a hunch and end up in jeopardy. Destruction!

To whom much is given, of him shall be much required. ….What of Jesus are we giving to people? Are we being easy & trying to make our Lord and Savior more digestible to others? Are we Dressing HIM up or changing His character to suit their character & ours? 

Do we go out to march and say it is for the Lord? Or do we just go out for the 'march' just for the sake of people seeing us "march"?

 Is our culture so steeped in convenience…that we neglect the spiritual of Jesus & follow a culture that is bankrupt because we left God out.  When we try bringing entertainment, we can totally reduce our involvement and our expectations in reaching others for Him.  If we really look at what is going on today, we would focus on that if Jesus is not the center of any family, then chaos can ensue. You can see that from guns in schools to people taking a motor vehicle to run someone else down. If we don't have our salvation, have our hearts set with Jesus allowing the Holy Spirit to speak to us and live by the commands given, then most likely we resemble the world!

We are reminded of this: Proverbs 24:1-4 Amplified Bible BE not envious of evil men, nor desire to be with them; 2 for their minds plot oppression and devise violence and their lips talk of causing trouble and vexation. 3 Through skillful and godly Wisdom is a house ( a life, a home, a family) built, and by understanding it is established [on a sound and good foundation], 4 And by knowledge shall its chambers [of every area]be filled with all precious and pleasant riches.

If we are going out in our name, then this is easily viewed as one in immoral conduct. Understand that people who know not God pay little attention. And they have no responsibilities to Him or for Him. He is disregarded.....again yikes! Remember He can cast one into Hell! And He certainly deserves our praise for all that His love has given to us especially for that displayed on the Cross! If one would take a moment to look into the face of a newborn baby, see the beauty of magnificent colors at sunset, and realize this was not a 'big bang' thing! 
If making a difference is important find out where you play the part in the plan God has in motion. Ask Him if that is where you belong! So if God is not vital to this and within this very cause to march about, then we find no cause to be obedient to His will being done on earth in us as it is in heaven. Being willful is having the face of attitude that which is considered serious indeed.  Bad attitude is always bad, causes problems, and will defy life for the good. Knowing that God is committed to us, then we should also remember He is serious. AND He is very serious about fulfilling His purposes on earth.

In receiving salvation, our walk was and is as the "disciple". Disciples are followers of Jesus. Our focus priority is Jesus as He was, is and will always BE the LIFE! Taking the territory for Jesus is that we are not on the sidelines cheering others on. We are to be the church without walls! It looks like the committed with an undivided and a dedicated life humbled to seeing His kingdom come.
So  if you are going out for that "march" consider talking to the Father about it. Tell Him your concerns and what troubles you about what is going on in the 'streets'. Ask Him if you will be safe and wise to go! And if He is for you going out, then ask what you will speak by the Holy Spirit to others that will bring them to God.

 Pray and ask Him what your step might be in this "coming march". For our greatest value to God our Father is in the here and now of this moment on earth. It certainly should be for His glory if we dare go out. And when going out in His name, then certainly is the glory due to His holy name.

Certainly engage culture but understand it is not for the fainthearted. If you go out in your name and being willful not to obey God then you go it alone!

That is not a safe place to be, outside the will of God. Another question to ask, especially to you is will you influence by  the speaking of peace, the good in God or you just going to be influenced by the world.

Each of us has role to participate for God and His glory and the world is opposed and contrary to God. But ours is not to make the gospel acceptable to man but just to make it available to those who does not know God!

Proverbs 26:27 whoever digs a pit [for another man's feet] shall fall into himself and he who rolls a stone [up a height to do mischief]; it will return upon him.

Proverbs 28:10 whoever leads the upright astray into an evil way, be will himself fall into his own pit, but the blameless will have a goodly inheritance.

Rest tonight, pray and tomorrow rise to live the life Jesus came to give us. Rise to be the blameless. Shine in His glory, prosper in His word, and deliver His truth to your community.And then do it because He said it was a "good thing to do".
