Expounding the way of God more perfectly - Acts 18:26 - with the Scriptures Rightly Divided - II Timothy 2:15
Rightly Dividing
The Flesh
Part VII
Why No Fervor - Excitement - Forwardness, etc.
This is an 'inbetween' sermon - in between Part VI Sunday and Wednesday...

a) When I do try to land that B52 - where is the fervor - the excitement - the forwardess in others - have they even landed themselves?
I know I am no great preacher, teacher, pastor, elequent speaker, etc. but still...
or...
b) Have you even tried to show someone this 'stuff' from Paul - rightly dividing in greater detail... and seen them NOT respond like you have?

Well, in review of Sunday night's notes:

I know you have a willing mind!


The forward mind?

Readiness of mind?


Humility of mind?

I hope you are not confusing a renewed mind... Do you have that fully pursaded mind? Do you show a fervency for Paul's ways?
1)  Never learned the 'wrong way' in the first place? 2)  Some have heard but yet never did really applied the old gospel commission style either... 3)  The mind still won't make the change... 4)  People still have a hard time dealing with grace. 5)  People Had followed teachings, but never the Book... 6)  SPOILED 7)  People can't believe THEY would be shown this by God! 8) People are still satisfied now! 9)  People are still showing signs of blindness and deception! 10)  People live in fantasy - you still want the kingdom of heaven today!
People still fear "faith" according to the rightly divided King James Bible!

Are you ashamed of something / someone / some "way?"

II Timothy 1:12 - For the which cause I also suffer these things: nevertheless I am not ashamed: for I know whom I have believed, and am persuaded that he is able to keep that which I have committed unto him against that day.

II Timothy 2:15 - Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.

Titus 2:8 - Sound speech, that cannot be condemned; that he that is of the contrary part may be ashamed, having no evil thing to say of you.
