"MINISTER GOD'S LOVE" BY ANDREW WOMMACK


By DAVID A. MCMILLEN, 2021-08-27

Minister God's Love




Luke 19:8 'And Zacchaeus stood, and said unto the Lord; Behold, Lord, the half of my goods I give to the poor; and if I have taken any thing from any man by false accusation, I restore him fourfold.'



LUKE 19:1-8



Zacchaeus was rich but Jesus made no demands for him to give away all his goods to the poor as He did with the rich young ruler. Zacchaeus had already repented and money was no longer his god, as was revealed by his actions. It seems that Zacchaeus was going above and beyond the requirement of restitution as stated in Mosaic law by offering to give half of his goods to the poor and to repay fourfold for his theft.

Publicans were hated by their fellow Jews. They were especially despised by the religious...

ENJOYING THE WORD OF GOD




DO YOU HAVE A FAVORITE VERSE IN THE BIBLE? MOST PEOPLE DO BUT ARE THERE A LOT OF VERSES YOU CAN REMEMBER? I AM GOING TO LIST A FEW BELOW AND SEE IF YOU HAVE HEARD THESE BEFORE.

"PLEASE GOD NOT PEOPLE" BY ANDREW WOMMACK

Please God Not People




Mark 10:48 'And many charged him that he should hold his peace: but he cried the more a great deal, Thou son of David, have mercy on me.'



MARK 10:43-48



The devil will always have someone available to tell us why we shouldn't expect to get results when petitioning God. Most people would rather stay with the crowd and not do anything to draw attention to themselves even if that means not getting their needs met. They will try to make you conform as well. If this man would have listened to the crowd, he would not have received his healing. 'Ye have not, because ye ask not' (Jas. 4:2).

This blind man is a good example of an active kind of faith. He was not passive in his approach toward healing. He boldly cried...

"JESUS IN THE OLD TESTAMENT" BY DAVID MCMILLEN

JESUS IN THE OLD TESTAMENT 




I WROTE ABOUT THIS BEFORE BUT I THOUGHT I WOULD DO IT AGAIN SINCE SOME OF YOU MIGHT HAVE MISSED SEEING IT.


WE KNOW THAT JESUS IS PART OF THE GODHEAD AND IS GOD, THE SON, AND WHEN "LORD" IS CAPITALIZED IN THE OLD TESTAMENT IT IS TALKING ABOUT JESUS BECAUSE HE IS LORD OF ALL. THIS COMES FROM TEACHINGS FROM LESS FELDECK WHICK ARE VERY GOOD.


HOWEVER, SOME PEOPLE MIGHT NEED A LITTLE MORE OF AN EXPLANATION AND I THINK THIS IS A VERY GOOD ARTICLE AND IMPORTANT TO OUR JEWISH FRIENDS.


SO, LET ME ASK YOU THE QUESTION AGAIN, HAVE YOU...

"JESUS PAID THE PRICE" BY ANDREW WOMMACK


By DAVID A. MCMILLEN, 2021-08-25

Jesus Paid The Price




Mark 10:45 'For even the Son of man came not to be ministered unto, but to minister, and to give his life a ransom for many.'




Jesus told His disciples many times of His death but this is the first time He indicated the reason for His death. Now it is clear that His death would be a 'ransom', defined in the Greek as a means of loosing by paying a price.

The words 'ransom' and 'redeem' were used interchangeably in scripture.

Not only would Jesus pay the price for sin but also His death would be substitutionary. In 1 Timothy 2:6, the word 'ransom' is taken from the Greek word 'antilutron' which means 'a redemption-price.' The Greek word 'anti' means 'in place of.' In other words, the ransom avails for all who will accept it (Jn....

"LOOKING FORWARD TO HEAVEN" BY DAVID MCMILLEN

LOOKING FORWARD TO HEAVEN

 

HAVE YOU EVER THOUGHT ABOUT WHAT HEAVEN IS LIKE? WHEN YOU THINK OF A MANSION, WHAT COMES TO MIND? I HAVE SEEN SEVERAL PICTURES OF MANSIONS AND SOME WERE UNBELIEVABLE. THERE ARE MANY MANSIONS IN HEAVEN AND ONE IS MINE AND IF YOU ARE BORN AGAIN, ONE IS YOURS. JUST THINK, IN HEAVEN WE WON'T HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT BAD NEIGHBORS. SEE WHAT JESUS SAYS IN JOHN 14:2-3 In my Father's house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also.

 

CAN YOU IMAGINE WHAT A MANSION PREPARED BY JESUS IS GOING TO LOOK LIKE? THERE...

"SHARE IN HIS SUFFERINGS" BY ANDREW WOMMACK

Share In His Sufferings




Matthew 20:22 'But Jesus answered and said, Ye know not what ye ask. Are ye able to drink of the cup that I shall drink of, and to be baptized with the baptism that I am baptized with? They say unto him, We are able.'



MATTHEW 20:17-25



The Greek word for baptize is 'baptizo.' This word was used by Plato (fourth century B.C.) to describe a man being 'overwhelmed' by philosophical arguments; or it means sponges being 'dipped' in fluid; and by Strabo (first century B.C.) to describe people who could not swim as being 'submerged' under water. Josephus in the first century A.D. used the word to describe the city of Jerusalem as being 'overwhelmed' or 'plunged' into destruction by the Romans; and Plutarch (also first...

"SHOWING YOUR LOVE FOR JESUS" BY DAVID MCMILLEN

SHOWING YOUR LOVE FOR JESUS


 

HOW OFTEN DO YOU THANK GOD FOR ALL YOUR BLESSINGS? DO YOU EVER SACRIFICE YOUR TIME FOR HIM AND JUST SIT WITH HIM AND LIFT UP YOUR HANDS AND SING PRAISES TO HIM? HE DESERVES BOTH THE THANKS AND THE PRAISE, YOU KNOW. LOOK WHAT IT SAYS IN HEBREWS 13:15 By him therefore let us offer the sacrifice of praise to God continually, that is, the fruit of our lips giving thanks to his name. SOMETIMES I JUST SING TO HIM AND ALTHOUGH I KNOW I SOUND TERRIBLE, I THINK HE LIKES IT AND, IF FOR NO OTHER REASON, HIS WORD SAYS TO DO IT AND HE WANTS OUR OBEDIENCE.
