ADVICE FOR ELDERS
“Care for the flock that God has entrusted to you. Watch over it willingly, not grudgingly, not for what you will get out of it, but because you are eager to serve God.” 1 Peter 5:2
1 Peter 5:2
Feed the flock of God which is among you, taking the oversight thereof, not by constraint, but willingly; not for filthy lucre, but of a ready mind;
A more “imperative” mood is involved in this “charge”, not advice….
sooo negative (filthy lucre) that modern “Christians” find it unsavory, and change it to their own shame…..all, of course, reflecting one’s love toward Christ…..
(feeding Gods flock sugar water)
BIBLICAL ELDERSHIP
Peter Said - 1 Peter 5:1-4
And now, a word to you who are elders in the churches. I, too, am an elder and a witness to the sufferings of Christ. And I, too, will share in his glory when he is revealed to the whole world. As a fellow elder, I appeal to you: Care for the flock that God has entrusted to you. Watch over it willingly, not grudgingly—not for what you will get out of it, but because you are eager to serve God. Don’t lord it over the people assigned to your care, but lead them by your own good example. And when the Great Shepherd appears, you will receive a crown of never-ending glory and honor.
YOU GOT NO RIGHT
Leonard Ravenhill 1907-1994
“You have no right to sin. If you have sin in your life, you've got something which is illegal in the sight of God; you're giving the devil a hand in your life.”
“Christianity is NOT a sinning-repenting religion! It's a victorious religion! There should be a place where you quit your sinning!”
“Partial obedience is disobedience!”
“A sinning man stops praying, a praying man stops sinning.”
HUMAN RESPONSIBILITY
Leonard Ravenhill 1907-1994
“Let's face it: We are not living in a day of militant Christianity. The very suggestion throws many into a spiritual pout, for they believe the Lord did all the fighting. (Appalling philosophy!) They glibly tell me, "The battle has already been won at Calvary." Christ did win, but that does not eliminate human responsibility.”
SURRENDER
David Wilkerson 1931-2011
“If you are saved, the Holy Spirit has already been given to you. Now ask him to take over, surrender to him! You have to determine in your heart that you want him to lead and guide you. Moses, speaking of the latter days, said, But if from thence thou shalt seek the Lord thy God, thou shalt find him, if thou seek him with all thy heart and with all thy soul” Deuteronomy 4:29
@HymnRevival777 Not true! The Bible teaches that the Holy Spirit comes separate of accepting the Lord, confessing our faith and being Christian. The apostles, who were there with Jesus Christ, were saved and received the Holy Spirit at Pentecost which happened 40 days AFTER Jesus Christ died. Where the apostles not saved until then? (Acts 2:4)
Consider Acts 8
14 Now when the apostles which were at Jerusalem heard that Samaria had RECEIVED (accepted Jesus Christ) the word of God, they sent unto them Peter and John:
15 Who, when they were come down, prayed for them, that they might receive the Holy Ghost:
16 (For as yet he was fallen upon none of them: only they were baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus.)
17 Then laid they their hands on them, and they received the Holy Ghost.
Note, though they had accepted Jesus Christ' message, only those who were baptized received the Holy Spirit. Peter and John had to lay hands on these believers BEFORE they could receive the Holy Spirit.
Just saying, it does not happen (always) when one accepts the message of the Word (Jesus Christ; John 1:1).
Sorry brother but the scripture says in Ephesians 1:13 "In whom ye also trusted, after that ye heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation: in whom also after that ye believed, ye were sealed with that holy Spirit of promise," Romans 8:9 says "9 But ye are not in the flesh, but in the Spirit, if so be that the Spirit of God dwell in you. Now if any man have not the Spirit of Christ, he is none of his." & John 3:16 says "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Please re-read Acts 10:42-48,Romans 8,John 3 to name a few. Your understanding of Acts 8:16 is incorrect because it's out of context. This is a special circumstance; by waiting for Peter and John to arrive, the Holy Spirit validates the faith of the Samaritans to the apostles, and validates to the Samaritans that they are joining the official church that Jesus originated. Chuck Smith has a good commentary on this also here https://www.blueletterbible.org/Comm/smith_chuck/c2000_Act/Act_007.cfm?a=1026016

www.blueletterbible.orgTHE UNKNOWN
Lester Sumrall 1913-1996
“Faith is an element of the unknown. If you are not willing to function in the unknown, or if you have to have security, then you will never know what faith is!”
NOT CONTAMINATED
Gen. William Booth 1829-1912
"Many wicked men admire Purity. They look on it as being beautiful and desirable in others, although they regard it as being impossible to them. In their thoughtful moments, when the Spirit of God strives with them, when the recollections of the innocent days gone by crowd into their memories, and they see people who they know are clean and good, they hate themselves because of
their own impurity, although all the time refusing to submit to God, and to accept the Salvation that would make them pure.”
William Booth was the founder and first General of The Salvation Army. He saw tremendous need not being fulfilled by mainstream churches in Victorian England and felt a divine calling to serve and bear witness to the poor. Initially met with derision and skepticism, he never wavered in his vision which was best summed up by the quote, "...and this satisfying of the outer man with bread that perishes, we hope will lead on to the satisfying of the inner man with the bread that comes from heaven." Booth and his army sought to live a "practical Christianity“, and one of their more successful projects was the “Food for the Million” shops or, as they were to be more commonly called, soup kitchens.
@HymnRevival777 Men today are busting at the seams with ill-gotten money. Money corrupts and there is never too much for them.
Sure seems like it. The scriptures say it’s the love of money that is the root of all kinds of evil (1 Timothy 6:10). Money brings power, influence, and control. People want to be God instead of serving God (Genesis 3:5)
DECLARE THE WHOLE COUNSEL OF GOD
Duncan Campbell 1898-1972
“I must be true to my conscience and to my inner convictions and declare the whole counsel of God and take my stand on the solid ground of separation unto God.
Now the person who will take his stand on that ground will not be popular. He will not be popular with some preachers of today who declare that we must soft-pedal in order to capture and captivate. Here I would quote from the saintly Finney: "Away with your milk and water preaching of the love of Christ that has no holiness or moral discrimination
in it, away with preaching a Christ not crucified for sin." Such a collapse of moral conscience in this land could never have happened if the Puritan element in our preaching
had not, in great measure, fallen out.”
Duncan Campbell (13 February 1898 - 28 March 1972) was a Scottish Evangelist, who is best known for being a leader in the Lewis Awakening or Hebrides Revival, a mid-20th century religious revival in the Scottish Hebrides.
@HymnRevival777 Thank you for your delightful and insightful words of those who spoke the truth, knowing most didn’t want to hear it.
And most still don’t want to hear
DECEPTION
Derek Prince 1915-2003
“The greatest single danger in this end time is not sickness, nor poverty, nor persecution. It is deception. If anybody says, "It could never happen to me," it has already happened to that person, because that person is saying something could never happen that Jesus said would happen. That is a sufficient indication that such a person is deceived.”
See Mat 24:5,11
DARKNESS SPREADS
Gen. William Booth 1829-1912
“See how wickedness spreads. Talk about a prairie fire it devours everything before it. Does Salvation keep pace with our ever-growing population? Make the calculation in your most favored Christian cities, and you will find we are terribly behind in the race.
Do we keep pace with the devils in energy and untiring labor? Do we go as fast as death? Oh, say no more! We'll close our ears to this cold, unfeeling, stony-hearted utterance of unbelief. LET US GO FASTER!”

JERUSALEM: THE BURDENSOME STONE

The Burdensome Stone with Jamie Waldenwww.blogtalkradio.com
@HymnRevival777 The discussion is good regarding the end times. However, neither man seems to realize that the scriptures quoted are out of sequence. For example, they both talk about Jesus' comment about 'when you see these events' (Matthew 24:33 & Luke 21:20) and assume that Jerusalem is about to fulfil these scriptures but ignore the verses right beforehand. In Matthew 24 these words come after the great tribulation in verse 29. In Luke these words appear after those Christians are rooted out from among families for a testimony in verse 12-16. Both events are prior to the destruction of Jerusalem.
These events have not occurred so Jerusalem will not be invaded yet. Yes, there is & will be war but Jerusalem will not fall until AFTER the previous verses. Unfortunately, neither men say this.
In the 44th minute they hit it out of the park when they quote Malachi 3:16 thru 4:3. So on target!
Thanks for your thoughts on this topic! There are so many different interpretations, views, opinions on this subject; just look at all the books, videos, websites, & conferences out there; it’s easy to see why people get confused. I appreciate that you don’t throw out the baby with the bath water! It sure seems like everyone has something wrong in their “theology” these days, even the smartest ones. Perhaps Isaiah 28:10-13 is the reason why. Anyway, however this actually plays out doesn’t change our job responsibilities of sharing the good news with everyone; overcoming by the blood of the lamb & the word of our testimony; and getting as many people to Jesus as quickly as possible! The signs are so obvious that we are close to our Lord’s return, so let us be found doing the work he instructed us to do before he returns! Be blessed brothers!
NO TRANSGRESSIONS
William Tyndale (1494-1536)
“For John Baptist went before Christ, and preached repentance; that is, he preached the law of God right, and brought the people into knowledge of themselves, and unto the fear of God, and then sent them unto Christ to be healed. For in Christ, and for his sake only, hath God promised to receive us unto mercy, to forgive us, and to give us power to resist sin. How shall God save thee, when thou knowest not thy damnation? How shall Christ deliver thee from sin, when thou wilt not knowledge thy sin? Now I pray thee how many thousands are there of them that say, ‘I believe that Christ was born of a virgin, that he died, that he rose again, and so forth, and thou canst not bring them in belief that they have any sin at all! How many are there of the same sort, which thou canst not make believe that a thousand things are sin, which God damneth for sin all the scripture throughout!”
PERSONAL TRUST
E.M. Bounds 1835-1913
“Have faith in God," "Trust in the Lord" form the keynote and foundation of prayer. Primarily, it is not trust in the Word of God, but rather trust in the Person of God. For trust in the Person of God must precede trust in the Word of God. "Ye believe in God, believe also in Me," is the demand our Lord makes on the personal trust of His disciples.
@HymnRevival777
That might be the craziest quote I’ve ever seen from EM Bounds…..
The word became flesh (they are virtually synonymous), especially in light of…..
Psalms 138:2
I will worship toward thy holy temple, and praise thy name for thy lovingkindness and for thy truth: for thou hast magnified thy word above all thy name.
@HymnRevival777 Spot on F'man...The last sentence of that verse is so key as to the importance of having the true, unaltered Word of God in your hands aka the King James Bible!
Agreed, a very interesting and crazy quote. Here is a link to the entire passage where the quote appears. https://biblehub.com/library/bounds/the_necessity_of_prayer/iii_prayer_and_trust.htm

BUMPER STICKERS
Leonard Ravenhill 1907-1994
“You see some bumper stickers "Christians Aren't Perfect, Just forgiven” they say “Christians are not sinless, they just sin less.” Well, I got news for you; if you're a Christian, you don't sin! You've got victory over sin! The Lord Jesus Christ came to purify us unto holiness and nothing but purity will satisfy Him!”
Actually, Christians are called to be perfect. That's biblical (see below).
"Be you therefore perfect, as also your heavenly Father is perfect.
[Matthew 5:48]

COUNTERFEIT PEACE
Charles Spurgeon 1835-1892
“If you are at peace today through a belief that you are righteous in yourself, you are not at peace with God. If you are wrapping yourself up in your own righteousness and saying, “I am as good as other people, I have kept God’s law, and have no need for mercy,” you are not at peace with God. You are treasuring up in your impenitent heart wrath against the day of wrath; and you will as surely be lost if you trust to your good works, as if you had trusted to your sins. There is a clean path to hell as well as a dirty one. There is as sure a road to perdition along the highway of morality, as down the slough of vice. Take heed that you build on nothing else but Christ; for if you do, your house will tumble about your ears, when most you need it’s protection.”
REVOLT AGAINST PARENTS
A.A. ALLEN 1911-1970
“Why has youth revolted against parental influence?“ The answer lies in the fact that the teachings of Christianity, the very foundation of all family life, have been woefully neglected. It is significant that when religious education among youth decreases,
crime among youth increases.”
DON’T RUN AWAY
WALTER MARTIN 1928–1989
“Note that every piece of armor in Ephesians 6 is for the front of the body. There isn't a single piece for your rear end. Do you know why? Because soldiers do not turn around in the middle of combat, they go forward. And the reason some Christians become ineffective and weak and drained is that in the midst of conflict and combat, they fail to believe in Jesus Christ and they turn around and run away. And the flaming arrows of the wicked one have lodged in their spiritual rumps.”
HAY TEAMMATES! AM FIGHTING A BACTERIAL INFECTION AND DUE TO MY ALLERGIES THERE IS NO ANTIBIOTIC LEFT EXCEPT FOR LINZOLID I WONT BE ABLE TO GET THAT IN TIME EVEN IF IT WORKS.

NOT CONVINCED
Jonathan Edwards 1703-1758
“There probably never was a time in our nation wherein there was such a vast variety of opinions in matters of religion, as at this day.”
“They are deceived about his holiness, they do not realize it, that he is such a holy being as he indeed is, or that he hates sin with such a hatred as he declares he does. They are not convinced of his truth, or that he certainly will fulfill his threatenings or his promises. They are not convinced of his justice in punishing sin, as he does. They have very wrong notions of Christ. They are not convinced of his ability to save them, or of the sufficiency of his sacrifice and righteousness, nor of his willingness to receive them.”
@HymnRevival777 Or how about the lie...all you have to do is BELIEVE in Christ and you will be saved. Yes, the Bible does say that but it says a lot of other things like...you must be an overcomer, wash your robes, only those who have gotten victory over sin, etc. People need to know that nothing that defiles will enter in. There is going to be a lot of weeping and gnashing of teeth.
@HymnRevival777 Or how about this one? It is not enough just to "believe."
Matthew 7:13-14 KJV
Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat: because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it.
This debate between conditional or unconditional salvation goes way back before any of us were born, so there is a lot of information written about it. There is no doubt about scripture verses that are conditional & unconditional. There are definitely more conditional scriptures than unconditional ones; however both are in the Bible and we should be careful when we try to explain them away no matter what view we hold on this topic. I’ve posted some slides that show different views on this for those in the audience so they can get a better understand on the subject we are discussing.
Personally, I try to keep these verses in mind when discussing topics like this with others.
Ecclesiastes 12:13-14
Matthew 7:3
Romans 2:4
Ephesians 4:15
Thanks for your comments and be Blessed!
MY AFFLICTION
John Wesley 1703-1791
“He that has experienced one kind of affliction is able to comfort others in that affliction. He that has experienced all kinds of affliction is able to comfort them in all. If you are currently struggling, draw strength from the truth that God's comfort is given in all trials. As you reflect on the tribulations you have been through, try and remember how God comforted you, and then prayerfully consider whether God wants to use you to bring sympathetic comfort to someone similarly afflicted. Just as God blesses us in order that we can be a blessing to others, you have been comforted in order to comfort others. In this way we put the storms in our lives, the things we would rather had not happened, to good use.”
