Do Not Be Distracted From Our Service.’
2 Corinthians 11:11-15.
a) 2 Corinthians 11:11. The True Minister of God loves the people that they serve.
b) 2 Corinthians 11:12. The True Minister is not discouraged and put off by false prophets and teachers.
c) 2 Corinthians 11:13. False prophets are:-
1- Boasters.
2- Deceitful and dishonest workers.
3- Attempting to transform themselves into apostles of Christ.
d) 2 Corinthians 11:14. Even Satan disguises himself as an angel of light.
e) 2 Corinthians 11:15. So it is not surprising if his servants also disguise themselves as servants who have God's approval. In the end they will get what they deserve.
(This QT reminds me: Do Not Be Distracted From My Service)

‘As God’s People The Church.’
1 Peter 2:9.
We are:-
a) A Chosen People.
b) A Royal Priesthood.
c) A Holy Nation.
d) God’s own Special People who belong to Him.
e) We are chosen to Proclaim the Praises of Him.
f) Called out of darkness into the Light.
(Through this Second one I understand who I am included amongst and recognised As God’s People The Church)
-----
Chris.
Boasters are never good for the Body of Christ. False ministers, whether they are prophets, apostles or teachers, frequently boast of their “achievements”. Through this boasting they make much money and cause immature Believers to go astray. We should mark the boasters and stay away from them.
