Ps Randy Tan talks about His Call into the Ministry In 1995, the call of God came to my life. “Start preaching and rely fully
I am writing this on Good Friday when we remember that Jesus died for us and then rose from the dead. It is a time
The Prince of This World, Money, and the Rapture There is a sobering connection between how one views money and where one will spend eternity.
The tenth commandment says "You shall not covet", and we hardly ever hear any preaching on this commandment, but God has not revoked it. In fact we see something in the New Testament that if we believed it without reservation, it would put the fear of God into us. Paul said:
"For this you know, that no fornicator, unclean person, nor covetous man, who is an idolater, has any inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and God."
(Ephesians 5:5)
Partnership in the Gospel
Some relatively simple – but hard-hitting – questions are posed by Paul in Romans 10:14-15:
How, then, can they call on the one they have nol believed in? And how can they believe in tin- one of whom they have not heard? And how can (hey hear without someone preaching to them’.’ And how can they preach unless they are sent? As it is written, “How beautiful are the feet of those who bring good news!”
The answer to each question is equally simple, “They cannot.” A person cannot hear and believe without someone proclaiming the gospel message to them.
In a previous message I established from the Scriptures that God tests our hearts. In this article I want to show that one of the principal ways God tests out hearts is with MONEY.
What is money? Money is many things. It is something people are willing to accept in exchange for goods and services. It is the power to have things and to get things done in this world.
Romans 8:21 because the creation itself also will be delivered from the bondage of corruption into the glorious liberty of the children of God.
Romans 8:22 For we know that the whole creation groans and labors with birth pangs together until now.
When I watched my wife give birth, I got a limited appreciation of what "birth pangs" mean. Being a man, I can only have a very limited appreciation. But it didn't look like fun.
2Peter 2:1 But there were also false prophets among the people, even as there will be false teachers among you, who will secretly bring in destructive heresies, even denying the Lord who bought them, and bring on themselves swift destruction.
2Peter 2:2 And many will follow their destructive ways, because of whom the way of truth will be blasphemed.
2Peter 2:3 By covetousness they will exploit you with deceptive words; for a long time their judgment has not been idle, and their destruction does not slumber.
Over the last 25 years that I have been a Christian, I’ve met a lot of different Christian people with a lot of different thoughts and ideas. I’ve been in quite a few different types of churches, with different kinds of teaching emphases. Online also, you will encounter many very sincere and dedicated Christians who believe that anything to do with the “prosperity gospel” is ipso facto HERESY, and so its like “Run away!” I’m sure I’ve also met some real scammers and con-artists who were into “Name-it-and-claim-it” type doctrines.
