SAINTS WHO ARE YOU EATING LUNCH WITH !
Do you
believe a Bible Based Church should be taught the true Word of God and also be
doers of the Word ? How many of us Christians can do what Paul instructs the
Church to do? Better yet, how many Pastors can obey(1 CORINTHIANS 5) and oversee
God's Church as Paul instructs? I'm sad to say I haven't met one yet! Let's look
at what Paul is saying to the Church. (9)." When I wrote to you before, I
told you not to associate with people who indulge in sexual sin. (10) But I
wasn’t talking about unbelievers
who indulge in sexual sin, or are
greedy, or cheat people, or worship idols. You would have to leave this world to
avoid people like that. (11) I meant that you are not to associate with anyone
who claims to be a believer yet indulges in sexual sin, or is greedy, or
worships idols, or is abusive, or is a drunkard, or cheats people. Don’t even
eat with such people. (12) It isn’t my responsibility to judge
outsiders, but it certainly is your responsibility to judge those inside the
church who are sinning. (13). God will judge those on the outside; but as the
Scriptures say, “You must remove the evil person from among you." Now
pause here Saints; did Paul just say don't associate with "believers" who
practice these lists of sins? yes he did. Most Christians however do the
opposite; we try to avoid and judge the unsaved who do these things, but we will
clique up with those who confess to be saved and doing the same things within
the Church! Saints stop judging the unsaved and leave that to God, and judge
your own who the unsaved are watching! Didn't Paul make himself clear when he
said "judge those in the Church" such as, those in the pulpit teaching and
preaching, those who are up teaching Sunday School, Bible Study, directing
and singing in God's choir, Ushering and serving as Deacons in God's Church
but are indulging in these sins publicly? yes he did; in fact he said put them out the
Church! If Pastors are not indulging in these sins themselves there shouldn't be
a problem obeying scripture and overseeing the Church using God's word! I realize
there's no perfect Church, because none, not even one of us is perfect but we
should all be "striving" for perfection and not Compromising the word of God,
after all ,we will be held accountable for what we know but refuse to do. So,
how many of you can obey scripture and refuse to associate with believers who
"publicly indulge in sin within the Church", neither stand with those who say
God called them to Shepeard his flock ye they blatantly allow such behavior
among the believers. (Galatians 5:9) says " a little levean leaveneth the whole lump!" I
didn't write the Word, so please don't blame me; take it up with my boss God;
You can go through his son Jesus, it's a toll free call Saints!
JUST KEEPING IT REAL 4 JESUS!
