WORLD MISSIONS
When the Word of God is recognized for what it is not and for what it is, people do fine.
Listen: It is not a book of Laws and Rules. It is a book of guides and principles.
Ex: If it was a book of rules and laws, you would have brought it to church in a freight train.
God knew He could not give a book of Laws that would fit every generation. Why:
He would have driven those Pharoahs crazy if He had said:
“Thou shalt not smoke”
“Thou shalt not watch “R” rated T.V”
Now listen:
When the pulpit stays red hot with the Power of God, God’s people usually do right. But:
When they skate down the aisle on ice skates and have a seat on a block of ice, listen to a polar bear in the pulpit, they are in trouble.
What are you saying Dr. Harris?
I am saying:
When a red hot church follows God given principles it will love the souls of men. In this town – state – Africa – Russia – World.
Matt. 28:1-20
I said: Every Christian in this room is one of 3 things:
1. A “Go” Missionary – the sent one of Acts 13:2, 3 II Cor. 8:23 with 10:15, 16
2. A “Co” Missionary – The sending ones of Acts 13:2, 3
or
3. A “No” Missionary – Will have no part in God’s plan
I would cut my throat. I would steal. I would Rob.
Now look at II Cor. 9:6-8
Listen: vs. 8
“God is able to make” (what) all abound toward you
“That you always having” all suffering in all towns.
Listen: “May abound to every good work”
Now look at Mal. 3:8
Listen to one of Scriptures great promises. Note the “Act” then the “Re-Act
Vs. 10
Vs. 11 – Says – fat corn stalks
Vs. 12
Then God speaks to these people that brought about the 400 years of silence.
(Use if needed)
There is a remnant left here. I personally believe that God was ?? His faithful few. During these next 400 years you won’t hear from me except my blessing, your giving heart.
What does God do when we act? ________________________________________
