Take The Evil Man Out Of The Pulpit 

Friday 31st October 

Text: 2 Timothy 4: 14 - 15 
Key verse: Exodus 18: 21 Moreover thou shalt provide out of all the people able men, such as fear God, men of truth, hating covetousness; and place such over them, to be rulers of thousands, and rulers of hundreds, rulers of fifties, and rulers of tens:
The scripture reveals that there are categories of sinners whose mouths must be stopped. This refers to evil speakers; people who do not have the truth but are always contrary. If you give them a message to preach, they will preach their errors. Do not give such people message again. Their mouths must be stopped. Do not appoint them as leaders. Do not appoint a leader because of his dignity. His educational attainment or his charitable life. No, do not do that. Appoint leaders who have the truth with them. You might have even seen that a person has no truth and is not also willing to learn, do not give him the pulpit, but remove it from him.
Many years ago in Deeper Life Bible Church, somebody was given a message to preach in a conference. As he was talking, they noticed that the man had gone off from scriptural truth before the great congregation. What would they do? They had to go to the brother in charge of the generator to put off the light. As the man continued speaking, he realized that the microphone was not responding again. Then he was told to excuse himself from the pulpit. This was to protect the church. To protect the truth. Take the evil man out of the pulpit. Take the erroneous man out of the pulpit. Take the contrary man out of the pulpit to preserve the flock of God.
Apostle Paul announced the names of apostate ministers to members to beware of them. When the Lord told HOREMOW to call out the names of backslidden ministers, people began to say, “Why do you judge them?” God said, “Call their names that others should beware of them”. Some will say, “Do not judge.” The Bible says that as a Christian, I should judge those who claim to be Christians. The Lord said the church of Ephesus had done well because they proved those who said they were apostles but were not? They judged them and found them liars. People who do not know scriptures say that we should not call their names. Do I not judge them who say they are Christians to know whether they are really Christians or not? 

Thought for the day: God has given us the right to judge righteously. 

Song for the day: Stand up, stand up for Jesus

Bible reading for the day: Luke 23-24

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...
