FishingKevhttp://fishingfortruth.blogHave crept into the internet and found a landing place for my thoughts. When not cruising around the web I enjoy surf fishing and exploring the outdoors around our new location, Millsboro, De. Husband of Daphne for over 37 years and proud father of two terrific daughters, Sheila and Jessica, who has blessed us with five grandchildren. Now I am pursuing my Dream to become a better servant in God's Kingdom...... "The Dream Giver" Bruce Wilkinson.... "Ordinary ran all the way to his Usual Job, his Dream pounding hard in his chest. As soon as he saw Best Friend, Ordinary blurted out the news: "That Big Dream I told you about--- I've decided to pursue it!" Best Friend looked concerned. "You know as well as I do that Nobodies who pursue their Dreams leave Familiar," he said. "They set off like fools into the Unknown, in search of a place where---" "Yes, yes I know," Ordinary broke in, "and I can't wait to get started."

Jesus as our Example

by

Philippians 2:1-11 (NIV)

Therefore if you have any encouragement from being united with Christ, if any comfort from his love, if any common sharing in the Spirit, if any tenderness and compassion,  then make my joy complete by being like-minded, having the same love, being one in spirit and of one mind. Do nothing out of selfish ambition or vain conceit. Rather, in humility value others above yourselves,  not looking to your own interests but each of you to the interests of the others.

5 In your relationships with one another, have the same mindset as Christ Jesus:

Who, being in very nature God,
    did not consider equality with God something to be used to his own advantage;
rather, he made himself nothing
   by taking the very nature of a servant,
    being made in human likeness.
And being found in appearance as a man,
    he humbled himself
    by becoming obedient to death—
        even death on a cross!

Therefore God exalted him to the highest place
    and gave him the name that is above every name,
 that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow,
    in heaven and on earth and under the earth,
 and every tongue acknowledge that Jesus Christ is Lord,
    to the glory of God the Father.

What Have You Heard?

What Have You Heard?

Let’s look at what Jesus said and compare what you have heard.

Matthew 5:21-30 (AMP)

“You have heard that it was said to the men of old, ‘You shall not murder,’ and ‘Whoever murders shall be guilty before the court.’  But I say to you that everyone who continues to be angry with his brother or harbors malice against him shall be guilty before the court; and whoever speaks [contemptuously and insultingly] to his brother, ‘Raca (You empty-headed idiot)!’ shall be guilty before the supreme court (Sanhedrin); and whoever says, ‘You fool!’ shall be in danger of the fiery hell. So if you are presenting your offering at the altar, and while there you remember that your brother has something [such as a grievance or legitimate complaint] against you,  leave your offering there at the altar and go. First make peace with your brother, and then come and present your offering. Come to terms quickly [at the earliest opportunity] with your opponent at law while you are with him on the way [to court], so that your opponent does not hand you over to the judge, and the judge to the guard, and you are thrown into prison.  I assure you and most solemnly say to you, you will not come out of there until you have paid the last cent.

 “You have heard that it was said, ‘You shall not commit adultery’; but I say to you that everyone who [so much as] looks at a woman with lust for her has already committed adultery with her in his heart.  If your right eye makes you stumble and leads you to sin, tear it out and throw it away [that is, remove yourself from the source of temptation]; for it is better for you to lose one of the parts of your body, than for your whole body to be thrown into hell. If your right hand makes you stumble and leads you to sin, cut it off and throw it away [that is, remove yourself from the source of temptation]; for it is better for you to lose one of the parts of your body than for your whole body to go into hell.

Jesus made a fundamental change without altering God’s standard.
Jesus deals with the intent and attitudes of the heart, and not only external actions!

 

Communion

What it means and is.

1 Corinthians 11:17-32 (AMP) https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=1+Corinthians+11%3A17-32&version=AMP

It is important to understand why Holy Communion is important.

For every time you eat this bread and drink this cup, you are [symbolically] proclaiming [the fact of] the Lord’s death until He comes [again]. verse 26

Pastor Kevin talks about what Communion is and why it is important to us.

God Promises to use us in ministry when we follow Jesus.

“Follow Me [as My disciples, accepting Me as your Master and Teacher and walking the same path of life that I walk], and I will make you fishers of men.”

Anyone who follows Jesus is already part of Gods plan to save people.
