‘God Has Given Us This Ministry.’
2 Corinthians 4:1-2.
a) It comes through His Mercy. (Not only for us but for all peoples too)
b) So we do not lose heart and give up.
c) We renounce secret and shameful ways. (Politics in Church is shameful)
d) We do not use trickery or deception. (Saying things that God’s Word does not say)
e) We do not distort and change the Word of God.
f) We must plainly set forth the Truth.
g) We may commend ourselves to every person’s conscience in the sight of God.
(This QT tells me strongly that God Has Given Me This Ministry and I am to be a good steward of it)

‘Our Daily Doing.’
Deuteronomy 6:18-19.
a) Do what is right and good in the Lord’s sight.
b) Then it will go well with us.
c) We may then inherit the Promises God has given to us.
d) It is God Who will give us Victory over our enemies.
(Through this Second one I am challenged as to My Daily Doing)

Chris.
Sometimes I am grieved to hear preachers and teachers saying things that God does not say. These teachings are usually attractive to hurting or immature people and can really cause them to stumble in their Faith. True Believers must say and Believe only the things that God clearly says in His Word. God’s Voice is His Word. He may choose sometimes to speak to us in other ways but we should not, however, rely on “other ways”, we should rely on what God says in His Word.
