Them That Sin, Rebuke Before All

For taking your time to study remain blessed. CAREFULNESS IN CHRIST’s CHURCH FRIDAY JUNE 16 TEXT: 1 TIMOTHY 3: 14 – 16 Key verse: “But if I tarry long, that thou mayest know how thou oughtest to behave thyself in the house of God, which is the church of the living God, the pillar and ground of the truth” 1 Timothy 3:15 There is need for carefulness in the Church of Christ. Although we see not our Lord with the naked eyes, but He is with us, for He says, For I am with you always even unto the end of the world. For He had said, Where 2 or 3 are gathered in My name, there I am in the midst of them. Don’t think because you do not see Jesus physically here, in Holiness Revival Movement, you can do what you want. These things saith He that walketh in the midst of the seven golden candlesticks. He goes up and down, checking everything. Make sure you keep order in His Church. Respect apostolic authority. God has given this work to someone. Submit yourself to him. The Bible says, Consider them that have the rule over you, that labour among you, and respect them, honour them very highly in love for their works sake. Willingly love your leader. Willingly submit to his correction, submit to his chastisement, submit to his decisions, submit to what he has said. Respect him. If there be any thing that seems different, reason together in peace. Give your reason, some people reason too. Those that resist authority in the Church, authority that the Lord has set over His people who are subject to Him, who are doing it in love and in the fear of God. You are resisting? He that resists, resists not man but God who has given to us the Holy Spirit. Be subject to authority in honour to the Lord of the Church. In all these things, the humility you are showing is not unto man, but unto God. The humility you are showing is not to man. The obedience, the errand you run, the service you render, is not to any man, although man instructed it, you are doing it for God. God wants peace. Do it in peace. Control yourself. Don’t be an angry man. Don’t be a troublesome man. God wants order and love. For Orderliness, Decency, Righteousness, Holiness, Progress, Victory and Heaven to be enjoyed by us, we must be subject to authority.
