Be humble under God’s mighty hand, that He may lift you up in due time. (1 Pet 5:6)
Paul said, “Under the mighty hand of God, the deity of this age is blinding the minds of unbelievers.” At the same time it is written elsewhere to pray that the eyes of the souls of those who are saved may be opened. (Eph 1:17-19) Both are true. If the world closes its eyes to Christ, it closes the eyes of carnal Christians to a clear vision of Christ and the supreme image of His church. What should the believer in the community expect in that dark darkness? How to proceed? There is a lack of knowledge that there are responsibilities along with fortune, and it is seen that people act according to their will in the community and give their own definitions about the believer. Because of those who behave in the same way in responsible societies as well as in unsystematic societies, tears are left as food and drink for the people of God who are working hard. The law of bread and wine is not too hard for one to bear. But they don’t respect it. The rites will come. The other weeks are not visible. Unfortunately, some people do not know the rules related to the responsibility of ritual worship. Abraham, who broke the bread, paid tithes of everything to Melchizedek (Genesis 14:18-20). However, many are neglecting the minimum constitution. Eyes not open? Or is it harshness? Some collect tithes. Either they spend the money as they like for service work regardless of the community. New Testament church believers laid ministry money at the feet of the apostles. Some of that money would have been spent on community leadership. Ministers are encouraged by the congregation when they are called to serve. (Acts 4:32-35; 15: 33) They come to shrines, go to meetings, attend festivals and do not participate in fasting practices. Devotees start service programs at the cost of lakhs. Some of them carry heavy loads. They see all these as spectators, but some people do not have the idea that I have a burden in it. What schemes are thought of in an attempt to corrupt those who are great collaborators.
According to these errors, in order to punish in righteousness, the servant condemns, advises and corrects. Irresponsible people don’t like it. That’s why the servant has to endure their anger. Or jump to a different community. Why are you changing congregations? Suppose the pastor is not good, or the believers say they are bad. Once upon a time, Manchodu was said to be good…then he was good but now he is spoiled. A believer Charles Spurgeon came to a devotee and said if there is a good church, why not? That servant. All the communities I go to are spoiled! If there is a good community, join it. Then the devotee said this. No flawless community exists on earth. If such a society is found anywhere, don’t join it. Why! The believer asked. “Don’t spoil that community because of you,” said the god. It is the irresponsible people who lead. For some, the love of Christ is the hatred of the community. Some like the congregation and others hate the shepherd. Some people’s anger has no reason. Once there is a feast in the church. One woman stepped forward. They used to distribute food saying that this is not possible. That’s it… she left the temple. Knowing this matter, while the shepherd was upset, another one came and found the shepherd who had lost his sheep! They are going to make the wound bigger. Any responsible shepherd is sad when a believer leaves the congregation. However, there are many reasons why the shepherd remains silent. Is it true that the congregation is compared to the sheep? A sheep outside? Isaiah wants other sheep that are not in the fold to come to the fold. If they are looking for a solution to those who behave like children with reasonless tantrums because they are family members, when will they bring the goats outside? God’s plan of salvation has three basic components.Community , the third is the gardener who cares for that community. (1 Timothy 5: 17) He who loves Christ loves the community. He who loves the community loves the shepherd who leads.
Moses! Put some of your glory on Joshua, God said one day (Numbers 27:20). . Why are you doing so much without asking? God testified that Joshua was Moses’ servant. (Exodus 33:11) During the reign of forty years, under the leadership of Moses, he lived everywhere as a minister. Nowhere did he live as an irresponsible person acting as he saw fit. He stood the leader on the hills and fought as a hero on the battlefield on the side of God. Gerome was to be the leader after Moses because of his father’s inheritance. But there is no history of the leader being burdened by the leader. Chastity, testimony, experience of labor, charity, bearing burdens in ministry, special prayer habits, especially under the leadership of the divine servant, are strong self-rules in the community. The apostles’ teaching, the twelve stars, is crowned by the New Testament church. (Rev. 12: 1) Those who believe that the suffering of God’s people is a crown, wear it on their head instead of under their feet. Thus those who have taken the high doctrine as their heads are exalting the crowned kings. Drain the water in fields without ridges. Or let outside water get inside. If the water goes out, don’t let the field dry up, and if water comes in, don’t drown the field. God wants those who go to a church to be blessed by that church. We should sing that our hearts rejoice in Jerusalem, which is the image of the congregation (Psalm 87:7 Isaiah 66:10-13) If that does not happen, the congregation that is going should be sad. Or the believer must be an irresponsible devotee. And must be a blind man who does not know the difference between right and left. The community is strong. How are you doing? It is better to stop defending yourself and take a step back and think. It is absolutely true that if you can survive in the community that was given to you under the leadership of Moses, Joshua, who was humbled, God will surely exalt you as Joshua was exalted at the appropriate time. So let’s make a resolution in that direction. May the grace of the Lord be with you.
May God bless you everyone.
