So, What DOES Paul Preach, Anyway?

So, how are we all doing with this Paul stuff, anyway?

Are some folks still following:

More and more valiant men & honourable & devout women are becoming famous authors and personalities. Compared to others! Compared to KJB!
KJB Findings:  We are all involved in apostasy!
Admit it - Apostasy is growing daily and abounds everywhere!

We must just admit it!
teens - you think all of us adults just don't know how to do anything right!
children - you still think don't have to obey your parents!
wives - you still don't think you are deceivable and your husband certainly doesn't know how to guide you!
men - it isn't that you don't have time, you don't want to be the Bible Believing man...

We are not a church family oozing with holiness - even of the holiness as described by Paul!

APOSTASY - EVERYWHERE
...except there come a falling away first...

II Thessalonians 2 isn't just about the local church!


Look around and compare things to the KJB!
Is it all just doom and gloom?
Let's Look at:

The world!

  • becoming more and more dirty & uncivilized
  • perversion is growing everywhere!
  • broke!
  • reprobate!
  • History America
  • Government
  • Economy
  • Education - public or private - even in the home - a mess.  Apostasy everywhere!
  • morals are changing good to evil and evil to good, etc.
  • Religion has finally shown it's true colors yet no one can recognize the obvious lies anymore!
  • Our friends Our families / relatives Within our own homes Our close family How about our own selves?

    IN SPITE OF ALL THAT, REMEMBER...
    - CHRIST PAID IT ALL -

    ...and doesn't even impute any of it, either!
    We had better thankful for that!

    So, concerning Paul...
    ...do you know what his ways are that are to be taught in every church?
    (or are you still studying the concept of Paul's gospel vs the Gospels gospel?)
    Are they taught in your church?
    I Corinthians 4:17

    Do you know what Philippians 4:9 all includes?
    Those things, which ye have both learned, and received, and heard, and seen in me, do: ...

    Has your walk been more pleasing to God or do you continue to call more on His grace & mercy?  I Thessalonians 4:1,2 - Furthermore then we beseech you, brethren, and exhort you by the Lord Jesus, that as ye have received of us how ye ought to walk and to please God, so ye would abound more and more. For ye know what commandments we gave you by the Lord Jesus.

    Do you continue to try to 'grow in grace' (II Peter 3:18) or just grow because of His grace?  (Paul says to choose # 2)


    I will say, we have had the opportunity to learn a lot...
    So, what do we TELL others? NO!
    They should already HAVE NOTICED those things in your life by now, just by BEING the Christian Paul would have us be.!


    Paul's manner of life is about BEING a Christian!
    But refuse profane and old wives' fables, and exercise thyself rather unto godliness.
    For bodily exercise profiteth little: but godliness is profitable unto all things,
    having promise of the life that now is, and of that which is to come.
    I Timothy 4:7,8

    That ye may be blameless and harmless, the sons of God,
    without rebuke, in the midst of a crooked and perverse nation,
    among whom ye shine as lights in the world;
    Holding forth the word of life; that I may rejoice in the day of Christ,
    that I have not run in vain, neither laboured in vain.
    Philippians 2:15,16

    How is your building program?
    For other foundation can no man lay than that is laid, which is Jesus Christ.
    Now if any man build upon this foundation gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, stubble;
    Every man's work shall be made manifest: for the day shall declare it,
    because it shall be revealed by fire; and the fire shall try every man's work of what sort it is.
    I Corinthians 3:11-13

    We need to know what Paul preaches about BEING a Christian!

    If you can't SHOW anything yet, don't tell them anything, either!
    Don't give that Bible and Paul a bad testimony!

    Folks today already have an UNKNOWN GOD!
    They don't need your own UNKNOWN BOOK!
    They don't need to hear about your UNKNOWN DIRECTION!

    Don't show them who you follow ignorantly!
    Don't show them who you blindly listen to at church!
    Don't show them how you still live your life foolishly as just another hypocrite!


    Grace is grace, but folks out there don't understand it like Paul preaches it!
    Unscriptural grace for all is the main theme of ecumenicalism!
    Paul doesn't preach ecumenicalism at all!

    So, What Does Paul Preach!
    More details coming up in future sermons!
