Golden Nuggets Of Truth from My Facebook Page part 3 by Len Paxton
Don't point your finger at anyone unless you are standing in front of a mirror.
Sometimes the poor person who has sinned and failed the Lord; you know, the one the whole church is gossipping about, is crying out to God, broken in repentance and they just need to be loved and told how to live for God and have victory; by faith in the finished work of Christ........
Some of the people you have judged and written off, are closer than ever before to accepting Christ. Something to think about.
I really believe that satan is working overtime trying to discourage the saints in the days we live in. Alot of times it is through those we never dreamed would take a position against us. We really need the sweet presence of Jesus in those times to overwhelm our own sense of need and trust Him to come to our rescue.
If I be the first to go, and the charge devolve upon you, teach them, as the experience of their father's life, that there is no honor on this earth save in the path which God's Word points out for the humble and contrite Christian. Outside of this there is no success in life, no wealth or distinction which does not b...ring wretchedness as the reward for the labor which it costs." Brig Gen. Elisha Franklin Paxton
What do you get when you mix ego with a decietful, desperately wicked heart? Answer: Religious people attempting through works based righteousness, creating religious fads, to do the job of the Holy Spirit in sanctification.
the outward results of Sanctification is victory over sin and obedience to the Lord. Those things do not sanctify but ARE the RESULTS of being sanctified. Too many have the attitude that they are what they are and that ok. Not true. The Holy Spirit WILL conform the believer into the image of Christ. by Angie Paxton
People are in bondage to activities, programs, & committees. Lets preach the Cross and Set them free.
The Cross, The Word, The Blood, The Holy Spirit; IS ENOUGH... Nothing man has can improve upon what Christ has done.......
There is a huge difference between being Childlike and being childish.
There is a difference between speaking up loudly for the truth and shouting down all who disagree with you.
The Holy Spirit produces the "want to" in us as it pertains to the things of God. If that "want to" is missing then we need to repent of sin and place our faith in Christ crucified.
Some say " we need the prosperity to reach people for Christ" I agree. It takes money to run a ministry. BUT, what we don't need are preachers who drive Rolls Royce and stay in $10,000 a night hotels while 2/3 of the world starves to death. If you raise it for the Gospel; use it for the Gospel. more in comments below.
Blessings of God are vastly different than the greed and manipulation, out right lies used; pasted over with a scripture verse to get money for personal gain. There is a huge difference between the Mt. of blessing and Babylon.
It is a huge leap from the "blessings" of God to one evangelist that paid $10,000 PER NIGHT to stay in a palace hotel.. Give me a massive break. The 2 things are about as related as a chipmunk to an airplane. This has nothing to do at all with the blessings of God. Lets stop confusing that issue.
When we work the works birthed in us by the Holy Spirit; that is not law.....
2 Cor 6:4-7 But in all things approving ourselves as the ministers of God, in much patience, in afflictions, in necessities, in distresses In stripes, in imprisonments, in tumults, in labours, in watchings, in fastings by pureness, by knowledge, by long suffering, by kindness, by the Holy Ghost,by love unfeigned,By the word of truth, by the power of God, by the armour of righteousness on the right hand and on the left,
A true watchman is not a rebel rouser. They rebuke from a broken heart. Broken for the millions led astray by greed induced messages. Broken for the lack of true power of God in the church because of an unholy mixture of the sacred and the profane.
Like the Woman at the well, I am desperate for a drink of Living Water to slake my thirst in this barren wilderness... I cry with her; Come see a Man who knows all about me and YET, went to Calvary for me.... O how my heart is overwhelmed by this great Love.....
D.L. Moody once said, "Without the soul Divinely quickened and inspired, the observances of the grandest ritualism are as worthless as the motions of a galvanized corpse."
A huge part of the message of the Cross is the Holy Spirit conforming the believer into the image of Christ. The Holy Spirit will bring our "condition" up to our "position" in Christ.
Persecution will arise and come to you when you preach Christ and Him crucified. The reaction you get when you are obnoxious, abrasive, conceited, and nitpicky can't be called persecution.
