Amen Paige, I would only say this because you are in agreement with the " Word Of God" and not man's INTERPRTATIONS; it is so sad how people just disregard The Word Of God for what a pastor say, it is like tring to walk a blind man the right directions with proof that he is going the wrong way, yet; because he neither know you or the one who gave you the true way he will not listen to you. I read what the Word of God say as you have posted it... and I will not disagree for, it is conformation to what the Lord told me as well. I will give as Jesus said to give... To the Poor, the widows, and the fatherless, he also said we ought to give to those who can't give back who are in need, and to give to those who are in prison... to feed them, to cloth them, to put shoes on their feet, to give them a home if they are cast out. There was no example of Mega churches in the bible,,,, Jesus could have said lets collect money to build a big church for the five thousand men not counting women and children which tells us it exceeded five thousand people, or when there was thousands added to the CHURCH-- Not A Building, it Is The BODY OF CHRIST JESUS, and I think it is blasphemy to call what God said it is not, what they call it today.... HE Said His Church Is NOT Build with MANs hands. so there is no lights needed in the Body of Christ for he is the light. We are commanded to go into All the world and preach not to stay in the four walls of a building. and for those who cant travel we have the schools, the grocery stores, malls, laundry rooms, the hospitals, play grounds,, I see why Christ said that many will say Lord, Lord, didn't we do such n such n your name, and he said away from me I KNEW YOU NOT, Many clame to know him,,, but it is man they know, the scholars, the pastors, and such like that,,, BUT DO CHRIST KNOW YOU??? Is the question!! How can he when some chase the words of man, and not God's Word? It is his Word and it was broken down as far as it could that it will be revealed to us what we should do, and what we do not have to do...
Thank you Paige for taking the time to give the truth according to the Word of God; I believe you really have to be seeking the truth from the Lord for him to give you so much revelation, and dispite the criticsizing you pressed with the truth; And I thank God for what he revealed to you to help those who seek the truth of God....
I have a question for all those who give; How many poor people in the church have you helped, or your pastors helped? how much of the money they get from us do they give to the needed? how many shelters do they send you all to; that you help smeone with food or cloths? How uch do you all give to this web site who needs the finances to keep it going and help his family with their needs? and help others to have a place to go when they get saved or need prayer or just someone to talk to when they had to give up all their wordly friends and this is another place to go for them to find fellowship when the building doors is closed until next Sunday. And Church folk are too busy with their on lives to sit and fellowship outside of the building? I Do? Do You? The people who gave all they owned in the book of Acts,,,, it was giving to the poor, the widows, the fatherless, and such as were in need. It did not go to jet planes, million dollar mansion, 100,000 dollar cars, Homes all over everywhere, when Jesus said not to take nothing with you, for a workman is worthy of his meat... in other words they will be invited in someone home to stay for their visit if they are doing the will of God on there journey. not take God's people money and fatten yourselves.. Ezekiel warned of this,,, greater is their ****ation.... I give all I have to the poor and to this site as a ministry of the Lord,,, for it helps the poor in spirit and the wounded, and brokenhearted, those who are in bondage and want to be free.. for one day of the week don't help, neither will nine hours a week,,, We need help from God every day, every day!! So Againg God bless you Paige, and I pray God keep anointing your ministry as well as all who have spoken the truth according to the Word of God and not the commandments of man.
