Church & Ministry

John Ch. 14-15 has Jesus’ instructions for required abiding in Him as He abides in Believers. However, there is no example there, or in any other part of Scripture, to either exemplify or instruct Believers to “Ask Jesus into their hearts.” Such a request for Jesus to do so is not part of The Gospel. Rather, Jesus abides in Believers as He chooses and upon His terms, and not as the Believer would request Him to for their own reasons. Jesus cannot be controlled in this manner, or in any other manner, not by even the most sincere and needy person.

Matthew 12:36 KJV, “I [Jesus: say unto you, That every idle word that men shall speak, they shall give account thereof in the day of judgement.”

Proverbs 10:19 KJV, “In the multitude of words there wanteth not sin; but he that refraineth his lips is wise.”

Titus Ch. 2:2-6 KJV specifies “Aged Men,” “Aged Women,” “Young Men,” and “Young Women” to all be “sober.”

I Peter 4:11 KJV, “If any man speak let him speak as the oracles of God.”

Today’s Professional Church Talkers are in their places by means of a long history of cultural accommodation. They are utilized and tolerated because of the following expectations upon them:

1.) They are expected to provide upon a weekly schedule prechewed, partially digested, and regurgitated Spiritual food to pewsitters who are quite often unable, and are too lazy, to Spiritually feed themselves.
