QUESTION AND ANSWER SERIES (Denominational Doctrines That Hinder True Gospel)
TEXT: Acts 4:18-20;
KEY VERSE: Galatians 1:1 “Paul, an apostle, (not of men, neither by man, but by Jesus Christ, and God the Father, who raised him from the dead;)”
QUESTION: Some of our General Overseers normally restrict pastors under them from teaching the whole counsel of God due to their denominational beliefs or personal interests. Now if the General Overseer or Senior Pastor does not allow you to preach holiness what will you do?
ANSWER: Your soul is not accountable to your General Overseer or General Superintendent as the case may be, but you shall render accounts unto God Almighty. Whenever and wherever there seems to be conflict between Divine expectations and demands as against denominational practices traditions of men, you are to always obey God rather than men. You are not under the General Superintendent in the sight of God as far as preaching the truth is concerned. If you have received the Spirit of truth and your eyes have been opened to the high, holy and heavenly requirements of God, then duty demands that you faithfully preach it. You are not preaching for the denominational church or the General Overseer. You are not even preaching for yourself. You are preaching for Jesus. Jesus is the way, the Truth and the life. Now that you have come across Jesus the Truth, will you go and take permission from Jesus before you preach Him? Go ahead and preach truth, righteousness and holiness.
Even if the denominational authorities suspend or chastise you, or out rightly send you out and put you on discipline and the Lord asks you not to go, just still remain there and He will release you from discipline. Go back to the temple and continue preaching. Keep on preaching the truth.  When the Pharisees and Sadducees threatened the apostles, beat them up and imprisoned them, the Lord sent an angel to deliver them, and sent them back to preach the word in that same temple of Jerusalem. Apart from the truth you do not have another gospel somewhere. Preach the truth that others can be saved through you because it is only true that makes the person free. Is that ok, if persecution becomes too much by your General Superintendent then leave the place. If they persecute you in this city, move to another city with the same gospel of righteousness, truth and holiness.
Thought for the day: Your soul is not accountable to your Overseer but to God Almighty.
Song for the day: He can never never change (3x), Jesus the same forever…
Bible reading for the day:
Ezekiel 22-23; James 2

For taking your time to study remain blessed. UNDERSTANDING ETERNITY WEDNESDAY MAY 10 TEXT: Psalm 90: 1 - 2 Key Verse: “The Lord is King forever and ever: the heathen are perished out of his land Psalm 10:16 People that understand eternity are always careful. Eternity means forever and ever, it means ever-lasting, ever-living, never dying. Trillion upon trillion years, eternity is still on, in fact it is life without end. There are two extreme ends of eternity: The kingdom of God called third heaven where God the Father, God the son, God the Holy Ghost, twenty-four elders, saints of God that make heaven, holy angels of God, and entire host of heaven dwell now presently; Hell-fire, where Satan, demons, and sinners that have died in their sins are presently kept. God is the One that introduced eternity. He lives forever. It is not a choice, the One who created us is forever, hence you will live forever, but what matters is where you will live eternally. Remove God from the way, then t...

Pastor Paul Rika’s Burden, Vision and Action To Reach the Unreached (2)

God's blessings will continually accompany you for dedicating time to your studies. Pastor Paul Rika’s Burden, Vision and Action To Reach the Unreached (2) Wednesday 15th October TEXT: Titus 3: 3-6   Key verse: Titus 3: 6 “Which He shed on us abundantly through Jesus Christ our Savior.” I remember I was in Sao Tome and Principe as a deeper life national overseer and I was writing the book, “Divine Revelation of God’s Holiness and Judgment.” The vision the Lord gave to Michael Sambo. I was translating it into a book, with the scriptural backups to make it a sound evangelistic book. I saw that truly the world is doomed. What will I say about those who have not known Jesus among the 7 billion people on earth; those who do not even have anything to do with Him? Do I speak of the billions in Asia without understanding of Jesus? Out of the 1.4 billion in India, they are struggling to record 150 million Christians including Catholics.  Who knows Jesus then? Even among Pentecosta...
