Looking into God's word with Pastor Randleas
4/2/2020
Matthew 5:13 (KJV) 13 Ye are the salt of the earth: but if the salt have lost his savour, wherewith shall it be salted? it is thenceforth good for nothing, but to be cast out, and to be trodden under foot of men.
Let's look at some keywords in this passage.
salt: hal-las = good judgment from a Divine source.
savour: mo-rain-oo = to become foolish or foolishness.
trodden: kat-ap-at-eh-o = to be rejected with distain.
Revisiting the verse with fresh eyes.
Matthew 5:13 (SRT) 13 Believers are to be the voices and examples of a higher, Supernatural, and God-given wisdom in a natural world. However, when we begin to talk and act foolishly we AND our religious expressions are deserving to be openly rejected by people and even mocked with disdain. If this happens how will we regain their respect?
I hope to tackle verse 14 tomorrow.

THE END IS NOT YET
3/26/2020
The CV-19 virus is NOT the end of days, but, it is a warning of how close we are getting to that blessed and hoped for event when we shall be caught away with Jesus.
Matthew 24:4-14 (KJV)
4 And Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that no man deceive you. 5 For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many. 6 And ye shall hear of wars and rumors of wars: see that ye be not troubled: for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet. 7 For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places. 8 All these are the beginning of sorrows. 9 Then shall they deliver you up to be afflicted, and shall kill you: and ye shall be hated of all nations for my name's sake. 10 And then shall many be offended, and shall betray one another, and shall hate one another. 11 And many false prophets shall rise, and shall deceive many. 12 And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold. 13 But he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved. 14 And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come.
Please give special attention to the end of verse 6 "the end is not yet" and verse 8 "all these are the beginning of sorrows" and again the end of verse 14 "and THEN shall the end come".
My beloved brothers and sisters do not fear, but take heart and be ready to move into action when you see Father at work around you, even if that is in your own home.
