Introduction
Part I - Verses from Wednesday, February 14, 2007
Part II - Verses from Sunday morning - February 18, 2007
Part III - Verses from Sunday evening - February 18, 2007

LEST, con.  That not; for fear that.
The phrase may be thus explained.  Ye shall not touch it; that separated or dismissed, ye die.  That here refers to the preceding command or sentence; that being removed or not observed, the fact being not so, ye will die.
Sin no more, lest a worse thing come to thee.  John 5.
Sin no more; that fact not taking place, a worse thing will happen to thee.


We have seen in Paul's way of God more perfectly ministry that God will not 'git us' today.
II Timothy 3:16 reminds us that yes, he will tell us correct doctrine, and he will do it with reproof, and he will correct us, and he will instruct us in righteousness - but He will not 'git' us.

If you do not understand that statement yet, then may I suggest you listen and read Truth or Consequences.


But tonight, we will look into 'consequences' in far more detail:
what can be results of our daily actions if they are not 'right?'

It is not God's judgment - nor is it God's wrath!
Nor is it God's chastisement - Hebrews 12:6 nor is it Revelation 3:19.
Christ paid for all of our physical chastisement!
He took upon Himself the wrath of God's that was meant for us!


However, don't forget ... we can still reap what we sow!


Part II
February 18, 2007 a.m.

Continued from part I...I Corinthians 8:9

See also Romans 14:10-22

Hard sermon for us these days...

Key verses today:
I Corinthians 8:13
I Corinthians 9:12
I Corinthians 9:27


Let me first state the conclusion ... the objective of this sermon:
(This is about a prideful and selfish manner of life ...
a lack of self-denial, hurting others, whether intentional or not!)
WHEN WE OFFEND THE BRETHREN,
WE HINDER THE GOSPEL OF CHRIST
AND CAN BECOME A CASTAWAY!

As these days worsen nearing the tribulation, etc., we must remember:  It will be like the days of Noah and Lot... See details in Luke 17:26-30 and Ezekiel 16:49-52

And yes, we should not be offendable - Psalm 119:165, etc..

But let us hear directly and in detail from Paul about not offending the 'other' person:

The audio sermon covers orally, with a few comments,
as we read verse by verse I Corinthians 8,9.

We try to apply this to parenting and our children more than any other brethren, but it can be applied to others as well.

This is one area where parents must also, as did Paul, suffer (endure, allow, etc.)! -- 9:12. Not doing / seeing, etc. the things we have liberty over...  (flesh)
It is a necessity is laid upon parents to not do things that would 'hurt' & 'offend' their children!  9:16
