8. Do those things that will show that you have turned from your sins.
9. And don't think you can escape punishment by saying that Abraham is your ancestor. I tell you that God can take these rocks and make descendants for Abraham!........ Matthew 3:8-9
I sat down and ponder over last week end myself ... after my sermon... a lady ( I saw the different of her look a bit darker) came and told me that she ride her motorbike from Chonburi about 15 Km. away from the church and she told me that she did tried to go to another church near by and easy to reach from her house.but she said it was not the same . She then decided to come back to God is good church...Further she can not come to church because of nature of the job she do in the hospital no holiday on Sunday when she can attend the church service. In Matthew 4:4
But Jesus answered, "The scripture says, 'Human beings cannot live on bread alone, but need every word that God speaks.' " New believers not being taking care properly they did not know how great is our God as the Lord pours down many blessings, Being not nourishing properly the new branch not being properly tab with the vine "Those who do not remain in me are thrown out like a branch and dry up; ......
John 15:5-7 "I am the vine, and you are the branches. Those who remain in me, and I in them, will bear much fruit; for you can do nothing without me.
6 Those who do not remain in me are thrown out like a branch and dry up; such branches are gathered up and thrown into the fire, where they are burned.
7 If you remain in me and my words remain in you, then you will ask for anything you wish, and you shall have it.
And on Monday churches have been called for meeting and getting to know each others better. I used to go to visit churches but as I step in I was as well felt the different. Lately as I walked in to God is good's premise one of a leader came and talked to me that he does not want people to sit at the corner. We know that any wrong attempt to force people to do what you like is not from God's character. I can see God love us more than want to take away what He has given us choices to choose our own way and He has never want to take it back from you. If He want to force us to do what He want He is the most powerful on earth and easy to do the way we as sinners think we should do. We have judged people, or sometimes judged ourselves by comparing with others and then think that our way is better than others. We have never thought and known because even our future is not in your hands. We are very simple as our nature is dust that God formed in Genesis 2:7 Then the LORD God took some soil from the ground and formed a man out of it; he breathed life-giving breath into his nostrils and the man began to live.
As we introduced ourselves individually we I sense there are barriers in faith between us like dark cloud from the past presented themselves and come out from their mouth. Some adopt G.12 system into the church and the church growth in number become noticeable, they concluded that G.12 is good some tried other tactic. and get result so that tactic is good, Only God is good... just try to follow Lord Jesus and empower by the Holy Spirit....and not because of the system or anything else just God is good....we do not know any thing else. We open the church because it can be the place we can come to worship God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit... and the Bible is our authority. If He leads us to any direction we want to hear from Him and we will follow ... not denominations, nor methods etc., but we want to hear clearly from Him. By His grace we will stand.
Galatians 5:1-5 Freedom is what we have---Christ has set us free! Stand, then, as free people, and do not allow yourselves to become slaves again.
2 Listen! I, Paul, tell you that if you allow yourselves to be circumcised, it means that Christ is of no use to you at all.
3 Once more I warn any man who allows himself to be circumcised that he is obliged to obey the whole Law.
4 Those of you who try to be put right with God by obeying the Law have cut yourselves off from Christ. You are outside God's grace.
5 As for us, our hope is that God will put us right with him; and this is what we wait for by the power of God's Spirit working through our faith.
We do not try to put ourselves in denomination, system, frame or method. Lord Jesus Christ is enough. No one redeem us but Him. We want Him not people but if He send them to us we will look after as much as we can.
Philippians 2:6 He always had the nature of God, but he did not think that by force he should try to remain equal with God.
7 Instead of this, of his own free will he gave up all he had, and took the nature of a servant. He became like a human being and appeared in human likeness.
Thank you Lord Jesus.
