The Agape Letters
February 7, 2005 A Pleasing Gift!
2 Corinthians 10:7-9
You are looking only on the surface of things. If anyone is confident that he belongs to Christ, he should consider again that we belong to Christ just as much as he. For even if I boast somewhat freely about the authority the Lord gave us for building you up rather than pulling you down, I will not be ashamed of it. I do not want to seem to be trying to frighten you with my letters
Is there an offering that you consider more worthy than your obedience to God?
As if God needs anything!
Undermining any authority placed upon leaders by Jehovah God lends itself to trouble!!!
The Widow's mite given in submission to authority is ACCEPTED as OBEDIENCE, while great riches given from abundance is an abomination!
As if God needs anything!
A WORKER in HIS field remains TRUE to the MASTER!
Soothing words from a prophet given to an arrogant man brings shame to both houses.
What is OBEDIENCE without an ACCEPTABLE SACRIFICE?
As if God needs anything!
SUBMISSIVE and OBEDIENT children bring HONOR to The FATHER!
RICHES in Glory surpass even YOUR PRESENT wealth.
Strife and sufferings in your natural life SPEAK louder concerning WHO is Glorified, being a measure of your submission to HIS AUTHORITY!!!
As if God needs anything!
Better to live harmoniously within HIS church, for those WILL also stand beside you
Continuously giving PRAISE before HIS throne!
WORSHIPing the EVERLASTING Father!
Lavishing HIM with ACCEPTABLE Sacrifice,
To HIM be HONOR, GLORY and POWER forever and FOREVER!!!
All HIS children saying, AMEN!
