Helping is divine, and not human!

  • “And He said to me, It is done. I am the Alpha and Omega, the Beginning and the End. *To him who thirsts I will give of the fountain of the Water of Life freely*.” (Revelation 21.6).

The Church abide by the determination of the Creator:

  • “Heal the sick, cleanse the lepers, raise the dead, cast out demons. *You have received freely, freely give*.” (Matthew 10.8).

Nobody has the right to charge to praise, preach the gospel, pray, etc. First, because who really carry out the work is the Holy Spirit. Furthermore, who imparts the message to the prophet or enables someone to praise with anoiting, to take in and preach the gospel, etc., is Him.

  • “For who makes you to differ from another? And what do you have that you did not receive? And if you did receive it, why do you boast as if you had not received it?” (1Corinthians 4.7).

And if someone looks anointed or spiritual and don’t obey the Holy Scripture, be this one ignored (1Corinthians 14.38) because in him there isn’t light:

  • “To the Law and to the testimony! If they do not speak according to this Word, it is because no light is in them.” (Isaiah 8.20).

And the gospel is to be preached to everybody persistently, in season and out of season, reproving, rebuking, exhorting with all long-suffering and doctrine (2Timothy 4.2). It doesn’t mind if the person appears to be callous to the gospel or are in a state that looks like impossible to work out Jesus’ message:

  • “... then it is not of the one willing, nor of the one running, but of God, the One showing mercy.” (Romans 9.16).

Abridging: the Church doesn’t hold the faith of our glorious Jesus showing favoritism (James 2.1), nor preach or teach for filthy lucre's sake (Titus 1.11).

So, have a nice week carrying on putting in practice the following verse:

  • “Enter not into the path of the wicked, and go not into the way of evil.” (Proverbs 4.14).
