willing to share in the scriptures for those of us who are rich. And uh, if you've ever been to another country, you'll quickly figure out that yeah, you're rich. You may not feel rich but uh compared to it's all a matter of

get rid of and it's logical that we come to this conclusion right the longer we walk with the lord i'll show you in scripture uh how paul came to this conclusion in a little bit but it you know as we study the bible and we become more familiar with these

with others and it's interesting because we as parents are always teaching our kids that they should share but when we get to adults you know did we grow out of that did we mature out of sharing so the scriptures tell us that one of the

i'm going to talk about thinking but i want you to i want you to notice a pattern in scripture that you may not have noticed before so it's a common scripture um very often it's the verse that if if i'm asked about tithe like what does your church

two talents. What do I do with my two two talents? What should I do with these talents? And the parable, the scriptures tell me, they speak to my heart. Here's what I need to do with it. I put it in bold. My job, I'm a

feel we're strong where we compare ourselves to others and we find ourselves wanting to advance or be the best in that area if you look at the scriptures more than any place else you find that competition is throughout and we

be careful to go by some of the principles taught in scripture in relation to building the church and being disciples. I want to turn you first of all to Luke chapter 16. A verse in Luke 16 which is a warning to

where Ezra Ezra came and his calling was different. His calling is to restore the law. If you see the book of um Ezra, we see that about the importance given to the scripture, reading the Bible and uh

3:16 all scripture is given by the inspiration of God and is profitable for Doctrine for reproof for correction and for instruction in righteousness let's pray heavenly father thank you so much for sending your dear son our Lord Jesus

yesterday probably the answer is no did you confess it no sins of omission are the sins we almost never confess now I'm not saying you should feel guilty about it but the more you read scripture I'm not saying that you should every speak

private. Let me share you um a portion scripture portion helped me uh this week from the sharing of our own lord Jesus Christ. John chapter 14. John chapter

and the Apostles and anybody that he could he had to you know interview them to get this story put together and it was a ton of work and I think it's good when we appreciate those that do a lot of work I think that scripture supports

but this very little mention that in the rest of Scripture it's another suffering that we need to understand when it says he learned obedience by the things which he suffered it's not only referring to the cross snow and I'll tell you why he

important thing you guys need to remember here's the first page of Scripture being written in the New Testament consider it all joy when you face trials because Christians in those days trials was just normal experienced

God's command as far as I see in scripture is this as far as it lies with you live at peace with all men he says that means you do the best to be reconcilable if they choose not to be reconciled to you that's up to them

men of God young or old I've been so impressed when when someone asked them for advice on what to do they were able to give such specific advice because they're led by the Holy Spirit they point to a scripture and that point the scripture

testament church but what is the mark of a new testament church it's very important to understand that i think a lot of people live in a delusion i had a desire to build a new testament church when i was 23 years old as i studied the scriptures i grew up

stories how God provided so that when the times of trial come we can go and uh look them up so always let's look back uh on God's faithfulness and the second one are the promises we have in the scripture uh in our fight against

paid of paid for i think of like a mother you know doesn't get paid for all the hours she labors so the motivation goes beyond just whether you get paid for that work or not so we said that one of the reasons is because the scripture says if you don't

this day, I agree with these scriptures. I don't think I think there are very few men that are are able to be single their entire life. Very few. And so, I'm not one of them. I needed a companion. And I see something wonderful. Uh, as if

scripture as i go through the story and i see wow lord you were trying to tell me this the whole time and i was so focused on other things i was focused on what i was grabbing not focused on what you wanted to give me right

we've shared. So, this is actually the fifth uh in a series. I'd originally intended to only have about two or three of those, but I just really felt like it was important to keep looking at some of these scriptures and principles. And you

you'll have kind of a from a two not all at the time but a lot of times you'll have from to and then the greeting there's a greeting and I think very often when we read our scripture we tend to just kind of blow through that and

of God not more not less from what is what is permitted by you please help me Lord in Jesus name I pray amen okay so the Lord has given me this scripture as I was praying for what I should share for this week um I suddenly
