Hello everyone! Then Peter opened his mouth, and said, Of a truth I perceive that God is no respecter of persons: Acts 10:34 KJV My brothers and sisters in Christ Jesus are you a respecter of persons? I have found in the past I have been an respecter of persons and God is faithful to show me the error of my ways. We are to continually examine ourselves friends for there is no good thing in our flesh and our flesh nature is to sin.
I remember years ago I had a pretty successful tech blog site. I had people on Social Media catering to me and trying to get close to me with words of flattery and such. I was just a person trying to make money with a blog that enjoyed tech and such. The world looks at a person with a reasonable amount of success as someone to admire or look up to, this is not pleasing to God because it can lift up Pride in the heart of man. I’ve seen people flock to what they think is the big deal, while ignoring the smaller deal whose product is as valuable as the big deal. It is the WORDLY that do such things, the followers of Jesus Christ have no respect of persons because God is no respecter of persons!
Today I blog about the Gospel of Jesus Christ to the Glory of Almighty God. Endeavoring to provoke the sinner to repentance and exhort the follower of Jesus Christ to continue on in the faith. God has delivered me from Organized religion where almost every single aspect of my life was controlled by a man. A Pastor feeds the sheep friends, he does not control the sheep, he does not lead the sheep without instructions from the Head of the Church, Christ Jesus. I was so diligent in pleasing the Pastor and not God, you see I thought if I pleased the Pastor then I was pleasing God. Not so! ANY man taking on that position as though he has a special connection with God and you are in need of him for all direction in your life, wasn’t sent by our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. He is an evil fraud and full of Pride. He isn’t watching out for your soul, nor is he feeding your soul but leading you away from God. He is simply collecting followers of himself.
These organized religious organizations also lift up men with titles. They hand out licenses and titles to set the order of hierarchy. This isn’t endorsed by the Word of God. The Apostles were humble servants as was our Savior and Lord Jesus Christ, he made no reputation for himself.
I could go on and on but in closing, my friends if God has freed you from the bondage of organized religion, having a man control your life why would you look to put yourself back into bondage? Don’t allow yourself to be in error no matter how influential a person may be doing the work of God we must not allow ourselves to be as the world. Whether well known or unknown we are all doing a work for the Lord. All deserving of the same respect and support and blessing from one another. I speak from experience in both respecting others and lacking respect from others! May the Lord Bless and Keep us All! Let Love and Peace abound amongst the brethren.
The eye cannot say to the hand, “I have no need of you,” nor again the head to the feet, “I have no need of you.” On the contrary, the parts of the body that seem to be weaker are indispensable, and on those parts of the body that we think less honorable we bestow the greater honor, and our unpresentable parts are treated with greater modesty, which our more presentable parts do not require. But God has so composed the body, giving greater honor to the part that lacked it, that there may be no division in the body, but that the members may have the same care for one another. If one member suffers, all suffer together; if one member is honored, all rejoice together. 1 Corinthians 12:21-26 KJV
