Have We Become Paul's Greatest Fear?

We are aware of what is going on around us these days...

Romans 2 - speaks of the goodness of God
Romans 11 - when Gentiles are done with the goodness of God
II Timothy 4 - preaching the word out of season
II Timothy 3:1-9 - perilous times creeping in
II Timothy 3:13,14 - but not continuing with Paul

caught in a snare

not getting out
not even wanting to get out

loving money

foolish and hurtful lusts
erring from the faith
piercing themselves through with sorrows

running out of fight

chosen to be a soldier
it is a good fight

II Thessalonians 2

1-12 - falling away
13-17 - should be us

Philippians 4:9
II Timothy 3:10

But...

Are we Paul's biggest fear come true?

Have we FORSAKEN Paul?

Are we ... ?
Will we ... ?
Demas following Christians!

II Timothy 4:10

Have we FADED from Paul's teachings?

in our latter times now?
giving up somewhat?
do you justify your 'change' from Paul's obvious teachings?

Have we FAILED what Paul asks us to do with our witness of the KJB and the Risen Saviour - Christ?
Are we no longer FAITHFUL to Paul - the KJB, etc.?
Could we FACE Paul to his face?
Are we living on OUR FAITH instead of HIS?

Galatians 2:16,20

Are we falling because of PRIDE

into condemnation, reproach, temptation?

Are we following a FALSE GOSPEL

following 'no gospel' is still following your own gospel!

Have we been overtaken in a FAULT?

Do you know someone who has?
Do you kill them or help them?
Remember, it can happen to you, too!

Are finding yourself trying to have FAVOUR with more and more people?
Are you seeking FELLOWSHIP by compromising?
Does your FAMILY 'rule over right' in your life?

Peer pressure...

Do you fall for FLATTERY?

It blinds, ya know!
The antichrist will use flattery!

Who do you FOLLOW in all reality?
Do you participate more and more in FOOLISH TALKING?
Are you changing your FRIENDS away from Paul folks - if there are any left, that is?

Yes, it appears to me more and more that, today, we ARE Paul's greatest fear - that what he did was done in vain!

Galatians 4:11
Galatians 2:2
Philippians 2:16
I Thessalonians 2:1
I Thessalonians 3:5

Let's Ask Ourselves:

Have we believed in vain?

I Corinthians 15:2

Are we becoming vain in our own imagination?

Romans 1:21

Are our thoughts in vain?

I Corinthians 3:20

Do we think our labour is in vain?

I Corinthians 15:58

Are we desiring vain glory ourselves?

Galatians 5:26

Are we being deceived with vain words?

Ephesians 5:6

Are we being spoiled through philosophy and vain deceit?

Colossians 2:8

Are we not staying away from vain arguments and contentions, etc.?

Titus 3:9

Have we truly become Paul's fear?
Has his writings in the KJB become of none effect for any of us - drawing closer, etc.?

Unless, of course, until none of this stuff is true, anyway?
I Corinthians 15:14-17

Well, I know whom I have believed...
II Timothy 1:12

I want to continue ...
...in the things which ...
hast learned and hast been assured of,
knowing of whom ... hast learned them!
II Timothy 3:14

The entire King James Bible is written FOR us, but it is not all written TO us!
We learn from the "For" and we learn to apply the 'TO!"
