A dying man prayed

To the people,

Division in Cretan is very serious! There are pirates. Some people are worst; they are liars, evil beasts, and lazy gluttons. Empty talkers, holding on not to commandment of God, but human commandments. You must stop some these from teaching, but do not cast them away. Rather, cast away the devils and spirits which are teaching their doctrines among us. These kinds of spirits or devils must be cast out by fasting and prayers.

One day, a man teach this doctrine in his classes, doctrine from the spirits and devil’s,

This theologian said, “Hindus and Muslims all believe that their Scriptures, the Bhagavad Gita and the Koran respectively, are perfect. Yet Christians who claim to believe in the one living and true God, the Creator of heaven and earth, and Christ the only Mediator and Saviour of the world, are not so quick to believe they have an existing infallible and inerrant Scripture. What a shame! If we adopt Bauder’s position, then Christianity is no longer true, and Christians shall become the laughing stock of the religious world. Indeed, if the Christian Bible is not perfect, infallible and inerrant, “then is our preaching vain, and your faith is also vain. Yea, and we are found false witnesses of God; … If in this life only we have hope in Christ, we are of all men most miserable” (1 Cor 15:14-15, 19)…..”

This theologian is not preaching or teaching about Christ’s doctrines, he is preaching delusion, lies. He is trying to confuse the hearers and the students.

May God help us. May God deal with these spirits and devils which are putting doubts into the hearts of the teachers and hearers of Christian churches.

I do not care what Hindus and Muslim believe about their Scripture, I had nothing to do with their perfect scriptures. Even, if they are having their perfect underlying scripture text. I will not be bordered. The Hindus and Muslim do not have the Holy Spirit, this I know.

Be very sure about what we teach and said, that all true Christians have God, the Comforter, the Holy Spirit. Do not compete the Bible, CUV, NKJV, NIV with Bhagavad Gita and the Koran. Do not confuse the young hearer.

Stop laughing at us, since we already have the faithful Bible.

God in heaven, by the mercy of the Lord, please hear my prayer, because I had been bought very low, the water nearly overcome me. Give me strength to work harder, more good works, even more faith, more love, let me died even by faith.

In the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, I command the devils and spirits which are teaching these kind of doctrines to be stopped, to cast out, into the hell of fire, out of Church forever, and may the peace of God come, and filled us. Amen.

In the Name of the Lord Jesus Christ, He is living, He is the fire, and He is the truth, I command you, the devils and spirits to go away at once! Do not come back again.

Protect all of the theologians from errors and enpower them!

May your light shine! Shine! Like fire, and cloud of light shadow every BP ministers and theologians in FEBC !

In the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, I believe the Bible in my hand is the Word of God, in your most powerful name, I command the devils and the spirits, seen or unseen, to cast out and be bond forever and ever in our Church. Amen, free all brethren from these delusions and lies, and continue to trust the Bible and preach Christ.

In the name of Jesus Christ, amen.

The Book of Titus with VPP

Titus 1:1-4, Paul explained his purpose being an apostle is for the sake of the “faith,” and for the sake of “knowledge of the truth, which accords with godliness”

We must bear in our mind! Paul does not encourage people to quarrel about “words”, (2 timothy 2:14). Should we quarrel about words and meanings in Constitute 4.2.1…..?

1:10-11, He mentioned the false teachers. They are,

1.insubordinate
2.empty talkers
3.deceivers

They must be silent.

1.they ought not to teach (Titus 1:11)
2.rebuke them.(Titus 1:13)

Paul wanted Titus to deal severely with those who cause division and those insubordinate.

Paul himself even quoted from the local writers at Cretan. (Titus 1:12) He read a lot of books.

They must be dealt so that they may be sound in the faith (Titus 1:13). Not to cast them away.

1:11b-13, Paul command to Titus:

1.Not to devoting time to the “Jewish myths.”
2.Not to devoting time to “commands of people.”

Around 1400 BC, some say earlier as 2000 BC, God called some 40 men and women to begin a job, to do that job it took a long times, the job is to pen the Bible. God inspired them in writing the Hebrew and Greek Bible.

Those sacred writers are not machines. They are all fully inspired writers. Very words of the Bible are inspired by God. This inspiration does not guarantee the inspiration of any modern or ancient translation of the Bible, but it deals only with the original Hebrew and Greek languages. Weather Ancient or Modern translations, it does not allow for any false teachings.

George Washington I : “It is impossible to rightly govern the world without the Bible.”

Winston Churchill, “We rest with assurance upon the impregnable rock of holy Scripture.”

Chiang Kai-Shek: “The Bible is the voice of the Holy Spirit.”

Henry Van Dyke: “…No man is poor or desolate who has this treasure for his own.”

Augustine the church father, he said, “Let us give in and yield our assent to the authority of the Holy Scripture, which knows not how either to be deceived to deceive…”

Do not ask me, what Bible version they were using, at the moment they said that words.

Men die, and memories fail, but the written record remain, the Bible was preserved! From Septuagint, to Latin vulgate, (Vulgate was used for 1200 years), and to KJV (used for these few hundred years)…. They are translations! There is no one, no translation is perfect! Not even KJV.

No one is righteous too, and under the heaven, there is no name given,that by Him, we can be saved, He is Jesus Christ, my Lord, my God, let died in your arms.

By faith we believe we have the Word of God. No doubt about this!

ON MAY 3, 1870, THE PEOPLE WHO READ THE KJV, THE CHURCH OF ENGLAND, the English, the Ang Moh, revised the New Testament. They published the revision in May 17, 1881. Shall we ask the Ang Moh to apologize for revising the New Testament? My foolish question ! You think it is easy to translate a Bible? You think it is easy to revise a faithful Bible version?

5000 manuscripts, a proof that we have the Word of God.

Shall we give thanks for the 5000 ancients Greek manuscripts of the New Testament. My foolish question! Off course! No doubt. How can you say, we do not believe the Preservation of the Bible. We believe. God do preserve the Bible. He does. Yes, we all must give thank for those preserved 5000 different ancients Greek manuscripts!

But many do not accept your saying, that God only preserve the complete, every words, perfectly in “the underlying text of the KJV.” This is your verbal plenary preservation view (VPP). This is your personal view. Let time be the judge, to prove your view. Abraham Lincoln said, “…but you can’t fool all the people all of the time!”

Let people have some time to do researches in this VPP, let the BP be at peace, be united in evangelism in the weekend, be united in prayer meeting on Friday and Tuesday nights, be united to worship the Lord on Sunday. Why are you so desperate to impose the VPP? And you attack the people who are using CUV even! Did they attack you in using KJV? Did they said anything like “KJV is not a faithful translation.” They never said that!

The Bible does not prohibit personal research. (Lk. 1:1-3) All of the denominations used different versions of Bible, but they all believe the Bible is the Word of God! Shall we give thanks for faithful translations? Another foolish question! Yes or not?

“For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways…”Isa 55:8,9.

2 Timothy 2:14, not to strive about words to no profit, to the ruin of the hearers. To be a servant without a contentious spirit, helping people to understand the Christian faith.

I appeal to the theologians, do not argue in the legalistic way, which Bible version they are using. Do not wasting time in doing that.

Do not study the Bible in a legalistic way. God wanted us to study the Bible. (2 Tim 2:15) in Spirit. Do not argue about “words” (2 Tim 2:14). Give way for the Bible. Fight the false doctrines.

RATHER, take time to:

Teach sound doctrines:

1.family and work (Titus 2:1-14)

a.conversation (Titus 2:3, 8, 9)
i.No slander.
ii.Sound speech
iii.Not argumentative

2.society (Titus 2:15-3:7)
a.Be ready for every good work (Titus 3:3-7)

3.others (Titus 3:8-11)
a.AVOID FOOLISH CONTROVERSIES. Like VPP.
b.GENEOLOGIES
c.DISSENSIONS, DIVISION,
i.As for a person who stir up division, after warning him once and twice, have nothing more to do with him, knowing that such a person is warped and sinful; he is self-condemned.
ii.Division is wrong and sinful. The splits are because of VPP, is wrong.

d.NOT TO QUARREL ABOUT THE LAW

Finally, he reminded the believers to do good work, because this is the purpose of salvation. Not to be like those Cretans, lazy gluttons (Titus 1:12, 2:14)

LAST REMINDERS:

1.GOD NEVER LIES (Titus 1:2)
2.GOD SAVED US NOT BECAUSE OF WORKS DONE BY US IN RIGHTEOUSNESS, (Titus 3:5)
a.BUT ACCORDING TO HIS OWN MERCY (Titus 3:5)
b.BY THE WASHING OF RENEWAL OF THE HOLY SPIRIT.


There are oppositions from the ungodly legalists, in the church. So, we must know how to live and interactions with them and the nonbelievers. Christian behavior is based on the fact that “the grace of God has appeared, bring salvation for all.” Hopefully this become true to every soul, may I numbered the days and minutes in thanksgiving, and unite all of us once again.

Thank God for the reformers, in 15th Century.

Those who believe in God are to:

1.live self-controlled (Titus 2:11-13)
2.live upright
3.live godly lives
4.Waiting for His return.



My beloved Friends and theologians,

In Titus 2:10, the writer called God (Titus 2:10, 3:4) and Christ as God. (Titus 1:4, 2:13, 3:6).

Think about this.

Forget VPP! Say, no to VPP!

“not to strive about words”

Sound Doctrines in Titus
Christ is God
Division

Tongue Speaking

One day, two good friends are going to the heaven. Along the way to the city of heaven, they are very happy, there are walking on a long and narrow road.

Walking along the road, one of the man saw some black and darken things at both sides of the road. One of the man acclaimed, "Look like shit." But he did not know what is those things laying on the ground. So he asked his friend. "What are these things along the ways to heaven?"

His friend answer him, "These are all human tongues! Their owner cannot reach heaven, so only their tongues were allow to put on the side of the road to heaven, as a landmark and monument!"

Do every one speak in tongue? No!

1 Corinthians 12:30
"Do all have gifts of healing? Do all speak in tongues ? Do all interpret?"


Soli Deo Gloria.

The purpose of the writing is

The purpose of writing this blog is

In doing this, the writer know that there will be arguments, and disagreements. Even though we are called to be peacemaker, but for the matter of unity in the future, the writer had temporary to put aside the process of peacemaking, he is intending to write this blog to pursue for the truth and at the same time to refute Verbal Plenary Preservation, he is refuting the VPP and those theologians who are misleading.

There is a time for everything. A time, to begin, a time, to end, a time, to be born, a time to die. He hope those who read the blog will continue to pray for unity.
And he admit that the writing is not perfect and all views only are his personal views. He is not a Spirit filled man, he pray for the leading of the Holy Spirit and he is looking forward to be one. Thank you for reading.

The Book of 2 Timothy and VPP

1:1, there is the promise of life in Jesus Christ. This is the plan of God, in a simple plan of salvation, come with the preaching of the Gospel, any one who receives the gospel will receive life.

1:2, Grace, mercy and peace from God the Father and Christ Jesus our Lord.

1:3, Paul was nearer to his end, the death, but he still pray and still thanking God. He prayed for Timothy. Pray for the divine glory.

1:4, Timothy was crying! Why men cry?

1:6, So, Paul remind Timothy to use the Charisma given to him. Fire under the embers.

1:7, And reminded him that God give them the spirit of power, love and sound mind.

1:9, Paul stressed this on Timothy!

God saved us, and God called us:

1.Not according to our works.
2.According to His purpose.
3.According to His grace.
4.Before the time began.

1:11-12, Paul said it is worth suffer for the gospel, because he has the best trustee, God.

1:13, Hold fast to the sound words.

1:14, The Holy Spirit who dwells in them. Paul is very sure. And he assures Timothy.

2:1, “BE STRONG” IN THE GRACE THAT IS IN CHRIST JESUS.

And!

2:3, Jesus is the captain of our salvation.

2:8, Jesus was raised from the dead.

2:9, So…..obtaining the salvation, with the eternal glory.

2:12-13, Jesus is faithful to us, even we are faithless.

2:14, not to strive about words to no profit, to the ruin of the hearers. He admonishes Timothy to be a servant without a contentious spirit, helping people to understand the Christian faith.

How?

2:15, rightly dividing the word of truth.

The Word of God is

1.the source of faith (Rom 10:17)
2.making holy life (Ps 119:11)
3.provide light and guidance (Ps 119:105)
4.the conviction of sin, to accomplish the sanctification (Eph 6:17)
5.keep the believer from errors (2 Tim 3;16, 17)

Beware!

2:17, Hymeneus and Philetus, their words are like cancer. Both of them deny the resurrection of Christ.

2:18, no one is without error. Some errors are grave. Like apostasy. The Greek word of “apostasy” is found in Acts 21:21 and 2 Thess 2:3-4.

Normally apostasy includes a denial of the deity of Christ or of his atoning work on Calvary. (Phil 3:18, 2 Pet 2:1, 1 John 4:1-3), also mentioned in 2 Pet 2:1-19 and in the book of Jude. And they must be dealt (2 John 10, Rom 16:17, and 2 Tim 3:9) and also mentioned in this epistle, (2 Tim 3:1-13)

How about these bible versions, CUV, NIV, NKJV, are they promoting apostasy? “No” Even though they are not perfect translation, the fact is, they do not promote apostasy.

Are they denying the deity of Christ, answer is “No,” Do both versions denying the atoning work on Calvary, answer is “No.” CUV and NKJV did not make grave error like an apostate. Do they deny the resurrection of Christ? “No”

Should we continue to use CUV and NKJV in our church, the answer is “Yes.” Should we separate ourselves from those brothers who are reading CUV and NKJV? “No”

Then, should we separate ourselves from those brothers who are using CUV and NKJV, but do not endorse VPP? “No.” BECAUSE CUV AND NKJV DO NOT PROMOTE APOSTASY.

In the end time, there is widespread of apostasy, but the apostasy is not because of using or reading the CUV and NKJV!

Apostasy is connected with heresy and doctrines of the devils.

Beware of heresy, and those doctrines from the spirits and devils mentioned in 1 Timothy 4:1-5, “abstain people from meat or food.” Or "abstaining people from reading Bibles."

In 1 Timothy 1:3, Gnosticism is a heresy according to Paul, because it elevated knowledge to a position of prominence above faith. When human reason is exalted above Christian faith. This is heresy. VPP is a of human reason.

God is preserving the Bible, no doubt about this!

The Bible is perfect originally, no doubt about this!

BUT Who are you?

Attacking brother in Christ who are reading the CUV.

Who are you? Preaching erroruos message?

2:19, The Lord know them that are His. Those who are living in holiness.

2:22 youth have their temptations, old man also have their temptation, like money, comfort, ease.

Do not be a fool! Do not be stupid ?

2:23, “…..but foolish and unlearned questions avoid, knowing that they do gender strifes.”

2:24, gentle unto all men….teach them in patient.

2:25, until they understand the truth.

2:26, some of the people are under the captive of the devil. They are living in the devil’s snare.

Apostasy is here!

3:1, in the last days, it is now and the future, AD 2008. There is a danger. There is apostasy in the church. There is wickedness.

3:1-5, these are, the people in high position, in the church, who have a form of godliness, mere religion, without power or spiritual life. Paul wanted Timothy to turn away from them.

3:8, Paul explained Exodus 7:11, 9:11, Paul quoted “Janes and Jambres,” their names are found only in ancient Jewish writings and in Christian apocryphal works. Not in Old Testament.

Paul quoted from ancient Jewish writings and Christian apocryphal works. These ancient writings are not inspired. How did Paul find those Jewish writing? Are they perfect without error? Preserved perfectly from Moses’ time? Are they preserved perfectly until Paul’s hand? Did Paul said anything about VPP, answer is “no”

Should we quote verses from NKJV, NIV, CUV? Answer is? Yes. Should we allow the reading of them in our church and fellowship? Answer is?

3:11-12, Suffer persecutions.

3:14-17, Scripture is not only written by men, but authored by God.

For what ?

1.To tell one what to believe.
2.To tell one what is wrong.
3.To tell one how to correct wrong.
4.To tell one how to live.

Bible is God’s inspired Word, “God-breathed”. Since the scriptures are given to help Christians grow in maturity, they should rely upon them for doctrine, reproof, correction, and instruction in righteousness. “Inspired” means “without error,” the scripture will not pass away, (Matthew 5:18, John 10:35)

The view of inerrancy pertains to the original manuscripts (the autographa), agreeing that ancient copyists made a few minor transmission mistakes. Remember they did not have printing machines and photocopy machines.

Such errors in minor matter do not impair the essential message of the Bible, nor do they destroy Christian faith.

Paul looks highly to the scriptures, we must.

1.He said the scriptures have authority; it is the Word of God.
2.he commanded to study the Bible, and do good work
3.He listed the function of the scripture in Christian life.

Final charge to Timothy is a masterpiece. Woe to him if he preaches not the gospel.

4:1-2, Paul command Timothy, “I charge you….” To “PREACH THE WORD.”

4:3-4, because the world is in darkness.

4:5-8, do the work of an evangelist: this is the Essential Task.

But!

4:10, Demas loves the world, his name is recorded for ever, for shame.

Rectified!

4:11, there are disagreement between Barnabas and Paul over John Mark, they had been rectified.

Paul cannot live without the Bible.

4:13, Book and parchments, probably refers to Paul’s personal copies of Old Testament and the New Testament manuscripts. And off course probably some ancient Jewish writings and Christian apocryphal works.

We knew Paul read the Bible, in the end of his life, waiting in the prison. Good habit of Bible reading.

4:14, Paul remember Alexander, did evil to Paul. Alexander was recorded in the Bible forever! An Everlasting shame!

4:17, He realizes Only the Lord stood with him in the end.

4:18, To God be glory for ever and ever. Amen.

CUV is Chinese Union Version, now we have the new Chinese Version, first print in 2002, New Chinese Version Bible (2002)

The book of 1 Timothy and VPP

1:1, God Our Savior, Jesus Christ, He is our hope.

1:3, there were false doctrines in the church. Paul attacked the false doctrines in his first epistle to Timothy (1 Tim 1:4, 7, 19, 4:1-3, 6:3-5.)

The false doctrines are heresy! Gnosticism is a kind of heresy; it elevated knowledge to a position of prominence above faith, when human reason is exalted above Christian faith, it is heresy.

Paul had no doubt about this. Paul wanted them to stop the heresy. False doctrines are those doctrines which had fallen away from the truth of the gospel.

What is a heresy? According to this epistle to Timothy, heresy is the teaching of:

a.Other doctrines (1:3)
b.Old Testament law (1:7)
a.Fables and endless genealogies (1:4)
b.Vain jangling (1:6)
c.Foolish and unlearned questions (see : 2 Tim 2:23)
d.Doting about question and strife of words. (6:4, Titus 3:9)
e.Abstain from meats, and forbidding to merry. (4:1-3)
f.Profane and vain babblings, false science, a form of Gnosticism. (6:20, Titus 1:14)

These people used their statute in the church for selfish gain. (6:5)
Paul said “other doctrine.” (1:3), it is a “heresy,” it is simply a “false teaching.” They are not out side the church, they are actually footing from within the church, and all heretics are wearing sheep clothing.

1:4, the heresies have one common thing, they have no godly edification, which is in faith.

1:5, the truth of the gospel is very simple to understand, the motive of spreading the gospel truth is to bring a man into “love.” Faith brings about the true love in Christian. Simple truth like “The just will live by faith,” will bring a man into God’s love.

Heresy will not bring a man into love, but heresy will bring a man into idle queries, endless quarrels, and foolish questions. Like VPP.

1:7, the false teachers do not know what they say.

1:8, some of them taught that man is to be saved by “law” This is wrong.

1:11, we have the glorious Gospel from the blessed God, all blessing and happiness is in God, and He bestows them upon those embracing His Gospel.

1:12-17, Paul was a blasphemer, persecutor, injurious, but God later counted him faithful. NOT THE UNPARDONABLE SINS ?

1:15, “Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners.” This is a Pauline important doctrine, simple, straight forward. (Ref. Matthew 9:13)

1:18, and this is a charge, the command to young Timothy, “to forbid the teaching of false teachings.” So that he may fight the spiritual good war.

1:19-20, Good morale is required from Timothy, this is true faith.

There were 2 heretics mentioned here, they strayed from the truth, were excommunicated from the church.

Paul said, what the first thing to do is,

2:1-2, “first of all,” or most important of all, is “prayers”

1.supplications
2.prayers
3.intercessions
4.giving of thanks

Pray for all men, so that we may enjoy a tranquil life. Remember, Acts 5:29, obeying God rather than man. If we pray, Christians are not troubled from without, by the enemies, or the forces outside. Not troubled from within church and family!

2:4, ‘Who will have all men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth.’ Knowing God is the work of the Holy Spirit in mankind.

Paul said; Fight the heretics, here, and now! With a simple creed.

2:5, the creed of early church,

1.Believe in one God. (Deut 6:4)
2.Believe in one salvation, God’s Son redemption, the only way. (Matthew 20:28, Acts 4:12)
3.Believe in one reconciliation God with Man.

2:8, My dear, brother in Christ, pray without disputes. Why we pray in these disputes? Impossible!

3:1, “Bishop” is somebody in the church, the manager, or an elder,

His work scope is to,

1.preaching and teaching (3:2, 5:17)
2.church management (3:5, 5:17)
3.keeping pure doctrines (Acts 20:28-31)
4.be an example to the believers (Acts 20:28, 1 Peter 5:3)

His walk is blameless:

1.one spouse,
2.a faithful spouse,
3.not a devoice
4.not a new convert (3:6)
5.vigilant,
6.sober,
7.good behavior
8.hospitality
9.apt to teach
10. not given to wine
11.no striker
12.not greedy
13.patient
14.not a brawler
15.not covetous
16.rule well his house

The deacons are to help the elders. Everything!

3:9, we are to hold on the mystery of the truth! Especially the truth of the Gospel.

4:1, The Holy Spirit said, in the end time, many will follow the seducing spirit, and doctrines of devils. Some heresy and false doctrines are from spirits and devils. Beware of those who are speaking lies in hypocrisy.

Read

4:1-5

Here, is one example of a heresy, a heresy from the devil, a doctrine from the devils, “forbidding marrying, and abstain from meats which God have created” Paul said this is doctrine from the spirits and devils. Paul said the meat must be received with thanksgiving….

Abstaining meat is a very serious matter! Paul said it is evil spirit at work in this false doctrine, this is grave heresy! Paul said it is a devil’s doctrine!

What about the theologians, promoting this doctrine, “abstain people from using NKJV, NIV in their church.” What kind of doctrine is theirs?

Are NKJV and NIV from God or not? Are they God’s words or not? Be very sure!

If NKJV and NIV are from God, then they are God’s word, then they must be received with thanksgiving in the church.

If you abstain God’s word, abstain NKJV and NIV, what is your doctrine, where the doctrines come from, think about this. Seriously and carefully.

Abstaining meat and abstaining God’s word, which doctrine is more heretic? More devilish, more evil? Abstain meat is very serious, is a doctrine of spirit and devil. How about abstaining God’s word?

What about abstaining CUV or other Bible translations in your church? Hopefully, you do not do this!

What about abstaining people who are reading the CUV from coming in our church? Hopefully, you do not do this!

What about Sacking a Chinese leader who is reading the CUV, but does not endorse VPP?

What about splitting a church because they do not endorse VPP?

What kind of doctrine is those theologians hold on to in doing so?

Since you split the churches! By what doctrine you do that?

Meat is from God, you eat, and you put in your stomach!

What about CUV? Where you wanted to put the CUV?

What about the brother in Christ who does not endorse VPP?

You wanted to throw them away?

You split the BP, you cut asunder their families members, and you wanted to vomit them out too?

I hope the theologians know the answers well.

Further, this interrogation to these theologians,

Do you abstain from eating meat or not? You do not!

I guess you are eating meat, burger, and chicken, vegetables from KFC, Macdonald, Pizza Hut, you eat hot dog, chicken, fish, beef and mutton, Peking duck, and you eat everything. I knew a sister who ate elephant meat. We eat all kind of food or meat.

(I advice you, after this, you better don’t let your church member see you are eating in KFC anymore. You may stumble some of them.)

Why, you eat meat? Are you confused ? Contradict yourselves ?


To you, a brother in Christ is no better than a piece of meat in KFC. A brother in Christ, who Christ died for, is not better than a Chicken Burger.

You eat meat, you give thank for the food, but on the other hand, you chase away brother who read CUV, and those do not endorse your personal view VPP.

Doubled standard ! Paul said this is because the conscience seared with a hot iron. (4:2)

For all this years, watching you and noticing each big step you and your theologians were taking. What happened to you? What are you thinking when you chasing those brothers away ? What wrong with you? What is your doctrine? Patiently, took years to study your doctrine. You even continue wanted to split other churches? What is the matter with your doctors and doctrines?

I am disturbed to see you do that, admitting I am not an educated man, I have no good manners, I am not a servant of God, sometime talked like a gangster, but I do not agree with you in splitting BPC, just because a VPP. Quarrelling with word! Your human power and human reasons, victimized your friends and brother in Christ.

Why you cannot give thanks for even one of them? Give thank for a member who does not endorse VPP in your church? But you rather chase him away? You even secretly wanted to chase a leader away, how dare you!

Think ! Who is their hope ?

Think ! Who has died for them ?

Think ! Who is their Master ? Who is your master ?

Think ! Who is coming soon ?

What doctrine are you holding on to in doing those splits and chasings?

Think about this! Did they do anything that you must excommunicate them from your fellowship?

4:5-6, for every creature of God is good, and nothing to be refused, if it be received with thanksgiving. For it is sanctified by the word of God and prayer.

4:10, Trust in the living God, who is the Savior of all man!

4:13, give attendance
1.to reading, (Old Testament, Gospel, Epistles)
2.to exhortation,
3.to doctrine

4:16, take heed unto the doctrine.

5:21, observe these things without preferring one after another, doing nothing by partiality.

6:3-5, Paul said that those who are teaching false doctrines, heresy, or doctrine of the devils. They have wrong motives, corrupt mind, looking for gain and profit in the church. Making money!

6:4, STRIFES OF WORDS! Stop! DISPUTES OVER WORDS! Do not let it happened again, look! It stirs up arguments, anger, accusations, and evil suspicious.

Some of them are the elders and bishops in the church, they are holding high position.

But they are destitute of the truth. And they are preaching other doctrines.

6:6, be content!

6:12, fight the good fight! Spread the Gospel.

6:13, and remembers Pilate, how Jesus was put under his judgment….

Living Hell on earth ! 人间地獄

Once upon a time, there was a Christian friend, living in big town, his income was small, 500 per month, like a poor mice in a big town. In doing his normal work, he will write some articles and comments in the Newspaper, to get extra money from the Newspaper. Since he has no office at home, he will go to places like KFC and Macdonald to do his office works and finishing paper works. There, he can enjoy some cool air and a private corner. Sometimes, drinking a good cup of tea or coffee, (Ecc. 3:13). Life had to go on.

His wife is a very hard working woman; she works in a farm nearby his house. Keeping a lot chickens and ducks, and she kept a few dogs, the dogs will look after the farm at night. Everyday, she wakes up early in the morning because she had to get food for the chickens and ducks, she collected a lot of waste from the nearby restaurants and shops, and the waste will be fed to the chickens and ducks. In return she will sell the eggs, the chickens and ducks to the market, in making more money. She works harder.

Life is hard for them. I started to realize about this. One day, I visited the man house and I saw a few Chinese words written at one of his door, “Living hell on earth人间地獄.” What a freezing and chilling truth about our life. I knew they are desperately hard working and keep on witnessing and trying to be a good witness for the Lord. I felt sad about the poverty, but I CANNOT HELP THEM, because I still do not know what life is. Who cares? I never forget the wordings on that door, “Living hell…..” At first, I just smile away at the first glance at those wording, but the wording nearly become true, one day at his rooftop. Let me tell you the rest and understood the meaning of those wording.

The Christian friend’s daughters were also very hard working; they are earning money to build a new house. Toiling under the sun, the daughter will let her son and daughter to stay at the man house. So my friend the grandfather and grandmother will take turn to look after the young grandson and granddaughter.

One day, the man and his wife were busy with their works outdoor. And his daughters were working some where in the town. The grandson and grand daughters were home alone at the man’s house. One of the granddaughters, climbed up the rooftop, and walking at the edge of the rooftop. She is so young, 3 years old, she does not know how danger is in walking at the edge of the rooftop. If she fell, she will be hurt or dead, since the building is very high.

By the mercy of the Lord, an Indonesian maid was walking a few blocks away, she saw the young girl playing up there at the edge of the rooftop, she cannot do anything, accept yelling at the young girl. So yelled and shouted at her, the younger girl heard the yelling and the shouting, she sacred off, quickly get away from the edge of the roof top, and went back in the house, she was saved by an unbeliever. Thank God.

The whole family was shocked in hearing what happened to the granddaughter, when they are toiling and working to earn money, to build a new and bigger house. A member of the family was nearly being sacrificed for the new house. What a cost in building this new and bigger house. How to pay the debt in building that new house? Does any one care?

A few distance away, there was a busy Christian preacher, he was eating at a big round table, be merry with his friends and families, having big fish, lot of meat, vegetables, drinking and eating happily, having a lot of credit cards in his wallet, giving discounts to his customers, making a lot of money. Spending and spending. Earning and earning. Building big and tall mansion and driving big cars. What a life on earth. He did not see the young girl on top the rooftop, because he is busy thinking about his big mansion.

A few distance away, there was a another man, with a few theologian friends, with some doctors, they are selling Bible, they are busy selling the Perfect Bible, and some of them are selling KJV, and a few of them are teaching the VPP to the young boys and girls, and some are standing and taking the Dean Burgeon Oath at the street. All of them did not see the young girl on top the rooftop, because they are busy looking for people on the street. And one of them shouted, “Bible, Bible, free perfect Bible.” But only a few people look back to them. All are very busy with their works.

The Christian friend in the big town, he taken some debts and build his new house, but not long after the new building was build, he was fallen in sickness, and he was dead, his family moaned for him. I also moaned and visited his family in his new house. I try to look for wordings at his doors; the new doors were well painted. No more wordings.

A Buddhist friend told me that he remember a verse from the Bible, and he was very impressed about this verses, I asked him what impressed him, since the Bible is so thick, which is the most impressive Bible verse for him, even he wanted to memorizes it and wanted me to know about, he told me, “Vanity of vanities….vanity of vanities; all is vanities.” I was in a blank shock, when he read those wording from the Word of the Lord to me, it is Ecclesiastes 1:2. How true, it is, vanity of vanity….

Should we sacrifice our family members to build a house of God?

Who is poorest among us ? Let him chast a stone first.

The Book of 2 Thessalonians with the VPP

1:2, Grace and peace from God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ, God is the source of our resources.

1:4, Paul boast about their patient and faith. They are matured Christians !

1:6, God is going to repay with tribulation those who trouble them.

1:7-8, the Lord is coming with the flaming fire ! He knows who do not obey the Gospel.

1:9, there is an everlasting destruction waiting for the unbelievers. And the Lord has the glory we are looking for.

1:12, His name is to be glorified in them, and we are to be glorified in Him.

2:1, we are not to be cheated or troubled about the Day of Christ coming.

Not to be deceived:

by word, (by false teaching, like VPP)
by letter. (by any imperfect manuscript, ……...)

2:3, let no one deceive you ! Even the theologians may deceive you ! By word and letter….

There is a falling away, there is a son of perdition.

The End time is a

Fall away from God. (Matthew 24:12, 2 Tim 3:1-9)
There will be wars, false teachers and prophets (Matt 23:7, Mk 13:22)
The church will be persecuted (Mk 13:9-13)
And there come the Anti Christ (1 John 2:18, 22, 4:13, 3 John 7)
It is the beast (Rev 13:2).

2:4, THE ANTICHRIST CALLED HIMSELF “god”

2:6, there is a restraining.

2:7, but the lawlessness is already at work.

2:8, it is going to be destroyed by the breath from the Lord Jesus Christ, and the brightness of His coming. Jesus is to destroy the Anti Christ with His Word.
(He has His Word, and He preserved His Word until to the END, so do not worry about His Word ! Exodus 15:8, Job 4:9)

2:10, many will perish, because they did not receive the love of the truth. They reject the truth of the gospel.

2:11, there is delusion, in believing the lie.

2:12, some had pleasure in sinning, they will be condemned at last.

2:13, the believers are sanctified by the Spirit and belief in the truth. (Like Ruth)

2:14, WE CAN OBTAIN THE GLORY OF OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST, IN RECEIVING THE GOSPEL !

2:15, Paul wanted them to stand fast and hold on the true teachings

By word or by their Epistle, Paul wanted us to hold on and believed the Word and Epistles.

BUT MORE IMPORTANT IS:

2:16-17, But Paul stressed, above the Word and Epistles ARE being preserved,
that the Lord Jesus Christ Himself, and Our God and Father,

1. Who has loved us,
2. Given us everlasting consolation
3. Good Hope by grace.
4. Comfort our hearts,
5. Establish you in every good WORD and WORK.

It is God who establish every GOOD WORD AND WORK !

3:1, Pray first, VPP later, Prayer first, quarrel later, Pray first, first ! So that the Word of the Lord may run swiftly………

Pray so that….the Word will,

What about the Word ?

The Word will be spreading…The Gospel will be spreading….

Paul did not want us to pray so that the Word of the Lord may be preserved…., he has no question that the Lord will continue to preserves and established His Word.

He did not wanted THEM to pray for a PRINTING PRESS or A PRINTING MACHINE. But he did pray for the spreading of the Good News. That is more important in his mind.

“There are unreasonable and wicked men,” those are the Anti- Gospel. (Acts 18:12-13) Not every one has faith.

Above all…..all those unfaithfulness.

3:2, The Lord is faithful. Have faith in Him.

3:3, Paul had confidence in the Lord.

3:6, WITHDRAW FROM EVERY BROTHER WHO WALK DISORDERLY AND NOT ACCORDING TO THE TRADITION WHICH HE RECEIVED FROM US.

3:7-9, Be an example. (Acts 18:3)

3:14-15, some believers are to be ashamed of what he has done, we are to admonish him. They are not our enemy.

Calling man as animal !

King David called a man as a snake.

In Psalm 58, how can he call the human, the creation of God, the image of God as a viper? Snake? A man with venom? Serpent! Verse 4, "Their poison is like the poison of a serpent: they are like the deaf adder that stoppeth her ear."

Matthew 23:33
"You snakes! You brood of vipers! How will you escape being condemned to hell?

Romans 3:13
"Their throats are open graves; their tongues practice deceit." "The poison of vipers is on their lips."

Philippians 3:2
Watch out for those dogs, those men who do evil, those mutilators of the flesh.

Peter called someone like an animal without the Holy Spirit. In 2 Peter 2:12

"But these, as natural brute beasts, made to be taken and destroyed, speak evil of the things that they understand not; and shall utterly perish in their own corruption."

And in 1 Peter 2:1-2, "Wherefore laying aside all malice, and all guile, and hypocrisies, and envies, and all evil speakings, 2As newborn babes, desire the sincere milk of the word, that ye may grow thereby:"

2 Peter 2:22
Of them the proverbs are true: "A dog returns to its vomit," and, "A sow that is washed goes back to her wallowing in the mud."

Jude 19, "These be they who separate themselves, sensual, having not the Spirit."

Revelation 22:15
Outside are the dogs, those who practice magic arts, the sexually immoral, the murderers, the idolaters and everyone who loves and practices falsehood.

Am I a snake?

Am I A viper?

Am I A serpent?

Am I a dog?

Yes, indeed...

May God change me into a sheep!

This is my constant prayer. Amen.

Inerrancy of the Bible

2 Tim 3:16-17

We must take note:

1. Bible is the revelation from God.

2. Inerrancy is only applied to the original text or the autograph.

For instance, the Chicago Statement on Biblical Inerrancy says, We affirm that inspiration, strictly speaking, applies only to the autographic text of Scripture

3. If any man founds errors in the Bible, do not think that it is because the original writers had done mistakes, no. They never did any mistake!

4. We must remember this well if we find any problem, any mistake, any obvious error in the Bible, it is because we have these possibilities:

a. the present manuscripts we have in our collection are not perfect or accurate.

b. the present Hebrew and Greek Bible and their translations possibly have imperfections.

c. we do not fully or accurately understand or expound the content of the Bible.
