There will always be a fear for naming names
Many believe that they will be punished for it
However, some do not read their Bible
The scriptures share something interesting—
“Paul named and rebuked Peter publicly. - See Galatians 2:11-14
Paul named Demas for loving the world. - See 2 Timothy 4:10
Paul named Hymenaeus and Alexander. - See 1 Timothy 1:18-20
Paul named Hymenaeus and Philetus. - See 2 Timothy 2:15-18
Paul named Alexander the coppersmith. - See 2 Timothy 4:14-15
John named Diotrephes. - See 3 john 9-10
Moses called the name of Balaam. - See Num. 22-25
(Peter also exposed "the way of Balaam ... who loved the wages of unrighteousness” in 2 Peter 2:15)”
Balaam was a prophet that was in the
Business of the Lord’s work for money—
Today we have the same setup
They beg for money and live like kings while
Multitudes of innocent people send them their hard earned money!
There are many that are against the Televangelists but are
Afraid to speak out because they fear they will be punished—
Religion brings such a fear—religion always wants to scare people
Jesus did not bring a religion
Jesus brought a KINGDOM
Religion gives you ‘things’ to do—
The Kingdom of God gives you an opportunity to be!
Religion makes you work for salvation
In the Kingdom SALVATION [what Jesus did] works for you
Jesus did not bring a religion
Jesus brought a KINGDOM—
"I kept looking in the night visions, And behold, with the clouds of heaven One like a Son of Man was coming, And He came up to the Ancient of Days And was presented before Him. And to Him was given dominion, Glory and a kingdom, that all the peoples, nations and men of every language Might serve Him. His dominion is an everlasting dominion which will not pass away; and His kingdom is one which will not be destroyed." Daniel 7:13-14
Religion means to search—you are not satisfied
When you find the Kingdom of God you are fulfilled
Religion gives you ‘things’ to do—
The Kingdom of God gives you an opportunity to be!
Religion makes you work for salvation
In the Kingdom SALVATION [what Jesus did] works for you
There will always be a fear for naming names
Many believe that they will be punished for it
However, some do not read their Bible
