What are the churches of this world doing for
the poor?
What
should the churches of the saints of the Living God do for the
Poor?
In Matthew 25
Christ gave us the Parable of the sheep and
goats. I ask you these questions which
one of these Christians are you? Which one of these Christians do
you want to be? What do you think Christ mean by this
saying, Assuredly, I say to you, inasmuch as you did not do
it to one of the least of these, you did not do it to Me? I
mean ask yourself these questions, ponder them, examine yourselves
so you are not disqualified after you have run a race by
not following the rules of the race.
The Holy Spirit says, "Whom will God teach
knowledge? Whom will God make to understand His message?"
And again, the Spirit says, "For with stammering lips and
another tongue He will speak to this people". As I said before, I say again, I speak to you plainly in the
language of one untaught by the wise of this world, who speak with
impressive and persuasive words. But, I speak as the Spirit of
Christ in me informs me, for the Spirit searches all things. Not as
a mere man, I speak as one without training in the speech
of the seminaries of this world's churches , but I speak
as one with the wisdom which comes from God above, for I want you
to live and not die, to hear and understand as those who are babes
willing to learn from one another. For God reveals His wisdom and
understanding to those who are babes according to this world's
standards; and "not many wise" of this present age answer the calling of God. As the Spirit
says in 1 Corinthians 2:10... "But God has revealed them to us through His Spirit. For the
Spirit searches all things, yes, the deep things of
God".
-
Isaiah 28:9-13... 9 "Whom will he
teach knowledge? And whom will he make to understand the message?
Those just weaned from milk? Those just drawn from the breasts? 10
For precept must be upon precept, precept upon precept, Line upon
line, line upon line, Here a little, there a little." 11 For with
stammering lips and another tongue He will speak to this people,
12 To whom He said, "This is the rest with which You may cause the
weary to rest," And, "This is the refreshing"; Yet they would not
hear. 13 But the word of the LORD was to them, "Precept upon
precept, precept upon precept, Line upon line, line upon line,
Here a little, there a little," That they might go and fall
backward, and be broken And snared and caught.
-
Luke 10:21... In that hour Jesus rejoiced in the
Spirit and said, "I thank You, Father, Lord of heaven and earth,
that You have hidden these things from the wise and prudent and
revealed them to babes. Even so, Father, for so it seemed good in
Your sight.
1 Corinthians 1:26... For you see your
calling, brethren, that not many wise according to the flesh, not
many mighty, not many noble, are
called.
God Himself pleads the cause of the poor and needy
in Isaiah 41 - There He is calling upon us as "real
Christians" to be responsible for our fellow human brothers and
sisters in need:
Isaiah 41:17
"The poor and needy seek
water, but there is none, their tongues fail for thirst. I, the
LORD, will hear them; I, the God of Israel, will not forsake
them."
Matthew 25:31-46 Explained
Evangelist Ron Davis, a minister
of Christ, of the Kush
Edifying Ministries, the author of these messages,
some were given in part on his Kush
Edifying Radio Ministry. Similar
messages maybe heard on radio station WJRO 1590AM / WLG
1370AM coming out of Glen Burnie / Baltimore,
Maryland area. Send your comments to Evangelist Ron
Davis, of the Kush Edifying Ministries.
The Kush Edifying Ministries proclaims the whole
counsel of God. This ministry believes in the command of Jesus to
His disciples in Matthew 10:7-8 "As you go, preach this
message: 'The kingdom of heaven is near.' Heal the sick, raise the
dead, cleanse those who have leprosy, drive out demons. Freely you
have received, freely give" (NIV). Jesus commands us to
"freely" preach the word without demanding that
those preached to give us a tithe or tenth of their
earnings.
As 1 Corinthians
9:15-18 says, so do I say, "For if I do this
willingly, I have a reward...That in preaching the gospel, I may
make the gospel of Christ [available] without
expense [by not demanding "tithes and
offerings" from you, as so many gospel peddlers do],
so that I may not abuse my authority in the
gospel" [as those who claim they represent God in
collecting tithes from you]. For if I do not
receive tithes from you, should I stop preaching the gospel to
you? For as the Holy Scripture says, "Woe to me, if
I stop preaching the gospel... What then is my reward?"
