Right words from a pastor!

Church Weekly for 23 August 2009 (http://www.calvarypandan.org/weekly/index.htm)

3. Evil fruits of Atheism and Evolutionism

The apostle Paul’s Roman Epistle exposes the evil effects of Atheism and Evolutionism. The evidence for Creation is present everywhere, demonstrable and visible for all to see, but men refuse.

“Because that which may be known of God is manifest in them; for God hath shewed it unto them. For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse” (Romans 1:19-20).

Since men refuse to acknowledge God their Creator, “… God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonour their own bodies between themselves … For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature: And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompence of their error which was meet. And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient” (Romans 1:24-28).

Refusal to acknowledge the Creator does not make men good. On the contrary, they fall into grievous sins.......

Lovingly in the Lord

Work!

Life B-P Church Weekly - 23 August 2009, (http://www.lifefebc.com/weekly.php)

......So make every effort to maintain a spirit of joy in your work and to be a cheerful worker. Do not drag your feet or do your work grudgingly. Do not gripe about your pay and work conditions. Take pride in doing your best for the Lord in every task you are assigned to do. And be sure to give all the credit to Him after doing it.

12 disciples

In every 12 disciples of Christ, there is one Judas among them, beware!

One day Jesus told Judas, Judas is His student and disciple, "Go and do what you want to do." Jesus meant it to Judas, "Go ahead with your plan, if you wanted to betray me or kill me, go ahead, kill me then."

In every 12 disciples there is one murderer, beware! After some times later, Judas sold Jesus with a price, 30 pieces of silvers!

In every 12 disciples there is some one who is looking for silvers! In every 12 fundamentalist, there is one Judas! In every 12 charismatics, there is one Judas!
12 is a perfect number, but in this perfect number there is one which is not belong there! You thought every one is good in these 12? Not so!

When fundamentalist meets a charismatics, the fundamentalist must be prepared to be killed by the charismatics! When the charismatics, meets a fundamentalist, the charismatics must be prepared to be killed by the charismatics!

Christians whom I met are alike, we practice character assassination, this is a hidden sin, this is a murder, we are like Judas sometimes, but we do not admit this!

These few years, I heard from some parents one of of most strange phenomena in the area between 21th century science and fictions! A few parents destroyed their expensive desktop, they were furious and angry with the computer they bought for their sons and daughters, because their sons and daughters kept on quarreling and fighting over the computer, every one of them wanted to use the computer at the same time, time is wasted. Parents threw and smashed their computers into pieces!

If God sees us fighting over the perfect Bible, churches split over the Verbal Plenary Preservation, this is a minor theological bug and man made jargon, fighting over these Bible versions and those versions, over these manuscripts and those manuscripts, and quarreling over these gifts and over those spiritual gifts, and if Adonai sees us, we are murdering one another, killing one and another, how is He going to say on to us? Is He happy, in saying these words to us, "Go ahead with your planning!" Is Adonai has to react like those angry parents, when they see their sons and daughters fighting over the computers? Once, some 2000 years ago, Adonai Jesus Christ went into the temple in Jerusalem and He cleansed the temple Himself! Judas killed himself for that 30 pieces of silvers!

It is better for us to stay in peace and do not quarrel over minor issues! Beware the lion, which is looking for some of us, to devour us, do not forget its scheme and planning!

May God bless the 12th disciples!

Horses

An old pastor told me an old time story, he said, "Now a day people wanted their horses to run faster and faster, but they never give any grass to their houses, it is ridiculous."

A young girl heard the pastor's words, and she said, "If it is so, it is better for us that we do not keep any houses at all!"

The old pastor is actually not talking about mere horses, he is saying that churches now a day do not take good care for the pastors and staff workers and their family! And they asked their staff workers to work harder and harder, but they see that they do not need financial support, and even if they paid their pastors and staff workers, they like to use these words to support their view about pastor and staff workers, they like to talk to them about giving and receiving, it is more blessed to give than to receive!"

Even though I do not totally agree with the old pastor that the churches were ignoring the pastors and staff workers financially, maybe there is one or two churches. But I find there are still a lot churches taking good care on their pastors and staff workers!

I think I am not spiritual in this writing, I am like a frog, jumping here and there, looking for food. Mosquito...insects, fly and worms.

The Bible, speaks!

Few days ago, when I was flipping the sacred Bible, my eyes stopped onto this verse, this is the verse describe about myself, in writing this blog,

Proverbs 18

2 A fool finds no pleasure in understanding
but delights in airing his own opinions.

God is speaking to men and women until today! Though a small little voice hidden under the sacred pages of NIV, NKJV, CUV and KJV....! This is what I say, the underlying perfect voice of God!

The voice is not a human voice, but a voice, that speak to our spirit and soul! The Holy Spirit speak when we are meditating on the sacred pages of Holy Bible!

At that split of second, the Spirit of God rebuked me!

1. That I am fool,
2. I have no pleasure in understanding.
3. Delight in airing my own opinions!

Even until today, my writing did not bring me any where, my understanding is void, I do not understand any thing at all, until I kneel down to pray to God!

There is a little important in water baptism, there is very important in baptism in the Holy Spirit, covering by the Holy Spirit is far most important!

Searching the sacred pages is important, but the illumination from the Holy Spirit is more important than holding a perfect Bible.

Having a title like a theologian did not guarantee our place in heaven! But living a born again life is far most important!

In the end, the dust will go down to the dust, but the men and women belong to God will return to heaven, you do not need to be a theologian to have this assurance, simply trust some one who is graceful to love you until to the end, some one who is able to save you forever and some one who is peacefully helping you every moments, some one who is talking to you when you are hopeless, some one who is able to bring you through death and sin. You must find that person! I see that person is none other than the Adonai Jesus Christ. God come to mankind, in Jesus Christ!

May God forgive me, because I am living in hypocrisy. I remember some one sung in a hymn, "take time to be holy!"

Lamentation no. 3

Lamentations 4:17

Moreover, our eyes failed, looking in vain for help; from our towers we watched for a nation that could not save us.

If the days ahead is becoming harder and harder, simply hook to the Lord's help! Leaning to the arms of God!

To the Israelites, have you read the Psalm, what did God tell you about these end time?

Psalm 118:9
It is better to take refuge in the LORD than to trust in princes.

Psalm 146:3
Do not put your trust in princes, in mortal men, who cannot save.

The time is nearer and nearer for you to make a choice to make peace, and that you are going to surrounded by armies one day! And no one is coming to help you, and you are alone that moment! Remember to call onto the Adonai, and He is coming in colorful cloud!

Luke 21:20
"When you see Jerusalem being surrounded by armies, you will know that its desolation is near.Then let those who are in Judea flee to the mountains, let those in the city get out, and let those in the country not enter the city.

Even our life is getting harder, a man called onto the Name of Adonai is a blessed man!

Second unsent letter written to myself

I have made a commentary in the first letter, it is recorded in the Bible, that whosoever is not working, he shall not eat at all. Laziness is a sin mentioned in our Bible! This letter is intended written to Chinese, we have to be hardworking, to continue to build a better future!

2 Thessalonians 3:10
For even when we were with you, we gave you this rule: "If a man will not work, he shall not eat."

About stealing, it is obvious, a sin! Bible says we must not continue in stealing and robbing!

Ephesians 4:28
He who has been stealing must steal no longer, but must work, doing something useful with his own hands, that he may have something to share with those in need.

Exodus 20:15
"You shall not steal.

Exodus 20:17
"You shall not covet your neighbor's house. You shall not covet your neighbor's wife, or his manservant or maidservant, his ox or donkey, or anything that belongs to your neighbor."

So it is my intention in this blog in these last days, we Chinese must be refrained from stealing and robbing properties and treasure belong to others. We must work with our own hands.

About lying, it is also a sin!

Proverbs 21:6
A fortune made by a lying tongue is a fleeting vapor and a deadly snare.

Revelation 21:8
But the cowardly, the unbelieving, the vile, the murderers, the sexually immoral, those who practice magic arts, the idolaters and all liars—their place will be in the fiery lake of burning sulfur. This is the second death."

It is a sin, that theologians hate one another, and so we must love our brother in Christ, even if there is a few minor differences here and there in our theological stand, in Christ we are one. There is only one name given under the heaven, by it we may be saved.

1 John 4:20
If anyone says, "I love God," yet hates his brother, he is a liar. For anyone who does not love his brother, whom he has seen, cannot love God, whom he has not seen.

The Bible rebuked racism in our Christian kingdom.

Romans 3:9
[ No One is Righteous ] What shall we conclude then? Are we any better ? Not at all! We have already made the charge that Jews and Gentiles alike are all under sin.

In this case, are we Chinese any better? No! All races are alike, we are all under sin! Chinese is not better than Indian, Chinese is not better than any other race.

Are our theologians becoming fat? Are they becoming thin? Are they becoming better with better deeds?

Jeremiah 5:28
and have grown fat and sleek. Their evil deeds have no limit; they do not plead the case of the fatherless to win it, they do not defend the rights of the poor.

I pray that we are becoming better, united, hardworking, and continue to read our Bible, and continue to pray for people who are in lower stage and those who are in needs!

May God bless our theologians!

An unsend letter written to myself!

These few days are the days we are looking forward, the most important turning point in our life is taking shape, and we do not know what is the future until it came, but it is taking shape from these few days onward!

What we sow today, what we will reap a few days later!

For the people who are telling lies, let them continue to tell lies, for the time is come, let they do evil, continue to do evil, and let God be their judge, and the world remembers their lies, and the world remembered how they tell their lies! A race, a tribe which likes to tell lies, a race which promotes laziness, let the whole world come to know their people, a race which does not know what it is shame in telling lies, let the whole world comes to know them, a race which promoting racism, lies, murdering, brutality, a race which does not like to be educated, an unlearned race who survive in laziness, life is hard for them, let the whole come to see them, this is the race, which is living in telling lies, we will not stop them from telling lies, because we are not God, it is God, that can make a race, a tribe to be hardworking, it is up to God, the time is in God's hand, we are mere human, and we have to obey God rather man. Does God want us to tell lies, make this clear to our son and daughters, does God what us to be lazy?

Is hard working a sin? No, hard working is a good culture, is a good character, is a noble gesture of a race! Hard working is a right thing to preach and to shout aloud!

Do not blame God, if you are lazy, lying, killing, murdering, what you sow today, is what you will reap next few days, do not blame other races, who makes you to be lazy, it is you, your own race, if you do not rebuke this laziness in your race, you will becoming poorer and poorer, and that poverty will makes you to be more and more lazy!

You are sleeping in laziness and poverty, you are to blame yourselves! No one else! You are not happy when I am telling you this?

You lazy gluttonous, repent, who makes us to be religious a while and but we live in our laziness, who can change your laziness, but you want people to respect you, when you are lazy, you are dreaming! Awake from this dream in this darkness, did not you see yourselves in the mirror, are you still wanted to blame other for your failure, you failed because you are lazy! That's simple!

You still wanted to rob, and steal? Stop robbing and stealing, start to work with your own hands! So that you have enough food to eat, and then you can help other with what you have gained from your own hard works. If you do not work, do not eat at all, why you are lazy, but then you eat a lot! You become fat, and that tell others about your laziness, you cannot fool others, when you are fat!

A fat sale person is not working hard enough! That fatness is telling the truth! Are you fat? You eat too much, work too little! You do not buy books, but you buy more food! That is your own fault!

You know why some people are richer than you, why other races are more successful than you? Why? Because simply they worked from daylight to night fall, they are more hardworking than you, do not blame other if you are lazy! Why you are jealous, when others are more hardworking than you? And they become richer! Are you shame of your poverty? But you jealous, to see those riches gain by hardworking!

Why until now, no one tell you about this, you say you have the truth, but why you are lazy and telling lies? Why until today no one dare to tell you your faults? Because, why? Because you are unteachable and untouchable, because you proud.

Education must change a race! Without any changing in that race, that race is dying! I am talking about Chinese, we Chinese will be rebuked by our relatives and friends when we are lazy! I remembered even pastors are rebuked when they are lazy, no exemption even Chinese pastors, what about you?

We Christian are not racism, we must not promote racism, if we do, we are sinning, even we do not promote ourselves, even we Chinese must not promote only Chinese! If an Indian is doing the right thing, we must promote him to be our head, and we follow him!

If Mr Obama comes to your place, can he becomes your leader? No, why? He cannot, because of his skin color, so what can he become? A minister? No! A head of the local university? No! So what can he become in your place! If he comes to your place, he will probably becomes a lecturer in your private universities! He cannot be voted to be your leader! This is the fact, this is what racism is all about in reality! Can't you understand this! But you still insist to tell the whole world, we are so good and so good, and we are not racist, we are not telling lies, we are united, we are successful, we are growing, we are making progress, we are not liars, we are not lazy, we are so hardworking.

Sow, sow, continue to sow racism, and one day you will reap from racism!

Corruption is dangerous!

We, as Chinese must not support a corrupted Chinese Political party, this is the mindset belongs to the younger generation! Younger people are educated not to vote for this kind of corrupted Chinese political party, these younger Chinese younger men, wanted to see racism is stopped, they wanted to see unity in all races globally, we Chinese is not the head, but we are equally yoke with other races in the country, to make this country a developed and peaceful country, corruption is a danger and threat to our country, and we as a Christian, we do not want to intervene and interfere in politic and disturbing any politician. But we are praying for a good government! Because we love our country, we do not want bloodshed and corruption, may God protect the country from dangers and harms.

Why we Christians pray for a good government, because corruption is a sin to the people! Greed is a sin mentioned in our Bible. The people do not want a corrupted party! The people naturally do not want a corrupted leader to be their leader. The younger generation has been awaken from the route heading to corruption. Corruption is destroying so many countries, it is why the young men and women are fighting for justice for all races, not for one or two races, corruption must be fought until the justice prevail, without the justice, the country is in darkness and dangers! There is no future for a multiracial country, until racism is stopped! Corruption is fought, and then the better future is ahead for us!

May God bless our king and queen, and may God give them long life, may God bless our good leaders to stay away from corruption and racism. Amen.

Sign and wonders

John 4:48

"Unless you people see miraculous signs and wonders," Jesus told him, "you will never believe."

In Jesus' time, people wanted to see sign and wonders, even until today we see there are still people like this, they wanted to see, sign and wonders, they say the sign of the cross is not enough, so we said to them if you had read the Bible, then go ahead with those sign and wonders, if those sign and wonders are from God, then give thanks to God, but the question is "Can you believe in Jesus without those sign and wonders?"

Acts 2:19
I will show wonders in the heaven above and signs on the earth below, blood and fire and billows of smoke.

I know God promised us sign and wonders, so I believe some sign and wonders are truly from heaven. No doubt!

Acts 2:43
Everyone was filled with awe, and many wonders and miraculous signs were done by the apostles.

God given some apostles with sign and wonders, thanks God for them.

Some times, they did not perform any sign and wonders, but they just telling people the sign and wonders which they had done!

Acts 15:12
The whole assembly became silent as they listened to Barnabas and Paul telling about the miraculous signs and wonders God had done among the Gentiles through them.

Sign and wonders are still happening in this generation, yes, I am sure!

Hebrews 2:4
God also testified to it by signs, wonders and various miracles, and gifts of the Holy Spirit distributed according to his will.

But there are some counterfeit sign and wonders. In all sign and wonders, some of them are not from God! Beware of them. They are the works of Satan.

2 Thessalonians 2:9
The coming of the lawless one will be in accordance with the work of Satan displayed in all kinds of counterfeit miracles, signs and wonders.

The work of Satan is in sign and wonders, so we do not believe every sign and wonders! And furthermore, not all charismatic and fundamentalist pastors, elders, deacons, leaders will go into the heaven! Some of them like to boast about themselves!

In Matthew 7

21 Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven.

22 Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works?

23 And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.

Are you still looking for sign and wonders? Beware of those counterfeit sign and wonders, they are from Satan! The Lord warned us about these!

Did you read the Bible, what the Bible says about those sign and wonders, here it is written in black and white, you must look carefully, test the spirit again! Hear what he preach, and the most important factor is who is performing those sign and wonders, God or Satan? Do not just believe all of those sign and wonders!

And if you wanted to perform sign and wonders, you say your sign and wonders are from God, I will ask you to read your Bible, and pray for assurance. If you still wanted to perform those sign and wonders, I will say 3 times to you, "Good, good, good, go ahead!"

Some theologians had done us a sign or a wonder, I do not say it is from Satan, but I am still following this sign and wonder, from a pile of old manuscripts, for the past 3 thousand years, they had wonderfully make up a skin goat, and he says, "Perfect words, perfect words, perfect words, perfect goat skin, perfect goat skin! Perfect TR, perfect TR, perfect TR!" Wonderful!

And these theologians are fighting over these goat skins, those goat skins, these manuscripts those manuscripts, and they continue to cut asunder, the church which the Lord united, the church is one, and the church is the Body of Christ.

And they forgot the Lamb of God had been slain to save us! They wanted so much so for those skins of goat to be perfect, until they do not want to unite with the Lamb of God. This is too a vanity under the sun!

Content and contend with the KJV and CUV Bible we have, read KJV and CUV every day, unite in Christ, and if God want you to perform some other sign and wonders, go ahead, I am waiting to see those sign and wonders, carefully this time!

Ready your camera, for the sign and wonders?

Insane?


King David was acting insane!

1 Samuel 21:13

So he pretended to be insane in their presence; and while he was in their hands he acted like a madman, making marks on the doors of the gate and letting saliva run down his beard.

The king of Israel, who was anointed by the prophet Samuel, the man with and in God's own heart, the apple in God's eyes! King David, all the Israelites saw their king became insane! A great man acted like a mad guy, letting saliva run down his beard!

A man who killed the giant, a man who written the Psalm 23, the man who called the "beloved" acted like a man losing his mind?

Why, David acted like a mad, insane man to save himself!

Paul rebuked the charismatics members in Corinthian Churches, he said they were acting like losing their mind, insane!

Simply turn your Bible here,

1 Corinthians 14:23

So if the whole church comes together and everyone speaks in tongues, and some who do not understand[g] or some unbelievers come in, will they not say that you are out of your mind? (NIV)

If therefore the whole church be come together into one place, and all speak with tongues, and there come in those that are unlearned, or unbelievers, will they not say that ye are mad? (KJV)

所 以 , 全 教 会 聚 在 一 处 的 时 候 , 若 都 说 方 言 , 偶 然 有 不 通 方 言 的 , 或 是 不 信 的 人 进 来 , 岂 不 说 你 们 癫 狂 了 麽 ?

Even they are speaking in tongue, we must say to them, "Good, good, good, go ahead." I am praying for you! I am not go out to rebuke them about their tongue speaking, because the problem of tongue is mentioned black and white in the Bible, I am not going to attack them, if they want to continue to speak in tongue, together, the whole congregation wanted to speak aloud, then I say to them, what the Bible say about the order needed in tongue speaking, what is the order in your churches? If they still wanted to speak, I will give them this words, "good, good, good, go ahead, if you had read the Bible!"

I will ask the Charismatic, the order is in the Bible, you say you believe the Bible, I know tongue speaking is in the Bible, what about the order in tongue speaking?

Orderly Worship

1 Corinthians 14:

26 What then shall we say, brothers? When you come together, everyone has a hymn, or a word of instruction, a revelation, a tongue or an interpretation. All of these must be done for the strengthening of the church. 27 If anyone speaks in a tongue, two—or at the most three—should speak, one at a time, and someone must interpret. 28 If there is no interpreter, the speaker should keep quiet in the church and speak to himself and God.

You think the way you spoke in tongue is all right, then go ahead!

Weather you are speaking in tongue or not speaking in tongue, what the bible say about all the believers?

1 Peter 2:9

But you are a chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people belonging to God, that you may declare the praises of him who called you out of darkness into his wonderful light.

If you say you are some body in the churches, you are doing the check and balance, and you judge us the fundamentalist, and you say we are lack of something, the fullness of the Holy Spirit, and you say we are not believers, think again, when you are speaking in tongue, how Jesus Christ, cried aloud for mankind, who make you are better than the fundamentalist? Are you not committing sins?

1 John chapter 1

8 If we claim to be without sin, we deceive ourselves and the truth is not in us. 9If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness. 10 If we claim we have not sinned, we make him out to be a liar and his word has no place in our lives.

Either fundamentalist, or charismatics, either, prince, Priests, pastors, elders, deacons, friends, politicians in Christ, followers of Christ, we are one in Christ, and we are called to confess our sins! Amen.

Paul is saying, police is needed in the churches, so that the tongue may be put in order!

Sometimes we need court order to say something we wanted to speak for years when we are in the Bible College!

Say good today

When you meet those theologians, you have to smile, say cheese to them, when they teach you anything, when they have make mistakes, I am teaching myself to say to my theologians, "Good, good, good."

When I meet pastors and elders from the charismatics camp, I will always keep a few words in my tongue, "Good, good...not matter what they had done in their churches, I will always learned from them, to say good, good, good, go ahead!

We have to lived in peace with one another, they are people teaching about God, but I rather to teach myself every day to accept Jesus Christ as my Saviour. To make sure I am not a reprobate!

Is saying, "Good" is a sin? If this is a sin, may God forgive me!
