God’s PASTORAL Set-Man: Feed the SHEEP of God with KNOWLEDGE & UNDERSTANDING!
In this age of multifarious and multi-various MULTIMEDIA – TELEVISION, RADIO and SOCIAL MEDIA platforms and such like – you can read, hear and watch all sorts of INFORMATION. Sometimes you wonder from which pit of hell are some of the stuffs coming from.
In the word of Apostle Paul in the Holy Writ, some people have twisted the Holy Scriptures to appeal to denominational dogmas, creed, traditions and oblations; while some are not fully explained in order to appeal to certain groups of people’s sentiments and bye-laws; and while others are deliberately made to create havoc in the Churches of Christ to appeal to popular opinions; and while there are those who in love are truly committed and dedicated to the cause of the Gospel in Christ Jesus stead, as Apostle Paul will say in all these as enjoined in Philippians 1:15-18.
It’s a high TIME for God’s precious PEOPLE to truly CRAVE for genuine KNOWLEDGE and UNDERSTANDING of God’s precious WORD of LIFE in all sincerity in the midst of the FALSEHOOD, FAKE NEWS, ADULTERATED and COUNTERFEIT that runs and tends to rule in the various MULTIMEDIA platforms in our today worlds.
THEREFORE I SAY:
** Are You A Believer In Christ Jesus? Do you belong to an Assembly or Denomination where the fellowship of brethren and worship of God in Christ Jesus takes place?
Ensure you steadfastly and steadily BELONG to a Local Assembly where you know and are known of other Brethren; and don’t be a SPIRITUAL HARLOTS running from Church to Church with no steady or stable place to account or count of you as a devotional worshipper with other people of God. It’s good, gracious and graceful for you to ENSURE you have a place you BELONG and you can call THERE – a place you entrust your well-being in SCRIPTURAL TRUTH in Christ Jesus; and is the place where you are FEED with KNOWLEDGE and UNDERSTANDING of God in Christ Jesus just as the BEREAN CHRISTIAN’S. Jeremiah 3: 15; Acts 17:10-13. And hopefully, is not a place of gimmicks, philosophy, traditions, dogmas, oblations, creed, bye-laws and trash of what you want to hear even when it’s clear there are unscriptural – for in such atmosphere you will be as guilty as that so called Pastoral whom you can sense Scripturally that he/she has lost it, while you still listen to and desire such error and mistaken preaching and teaching to fill up your void places.
** Are you a GOSPEL Minister to the congregation of God’s precious people?
Ensure you FEED them to the KNOWLEDGE & UNDERSTANDING of our God in doing life on earth for good, while heavenly mindful; and as a goodwill Minister of grace and Pastoral Shepherd of God’s precious people – and Not A Story Teller, Dubious, Cunning, Crafty Manipulator and or as a Extortionate.
SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK.
SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:
“And I will GIVE you SHEPHERDS according to My heart, who will FEED you with KNOWLEDGE and UNDERSTANDING” Jeremiah 3:15.
“Let the Lord, the God of the spirits of all flesh, SET A MAN over the congregation, 17 who may GO OUT before them and GO IN before them, who may LEAD them out and bring them in, that the congregation of the Lord may not be like SHEEP which have no SHEPHERD.” Numbers 27:16-17.
“Then the brethren immediately sent Paul and Silas away by night to BEREA. When they arrived, they went into the SYNAGOGUE of the Jews. 11 These were more fair-minded than those in Thessalonica, in that they RECEIVED THE WORD with all READINESS, and SEARCHED the SCRIPTURES DAILY to find out whether these things were so. 12 Therefore many of them BELIEVED, and also not a few of the Greeks, PROMINENT women as well as men” Acts 17:10-12.
“SOME indeed PREACH Christ even of ENVY and STRIFE; and SOME also of GOOD WILL: 16 the one PREACH Christ of CONTENTION, not SINCERELY, supposing to ADD AFFLICTION to my bonds: 17 but the other of LOVE, knowing that I am set for the DEFENCE of the GOSPEL. 18 What then? notwithstanding, every way, WHETHER IN PRETENCE, OR IN TRUTH, Christ is PREACHED; and I therein do rejoice, yea, and will rejoice” Philippians 1:15-18.
