Ask Your (Building) Church Guy!

What, after all, is Apollos? And what is Paul? Only servants, through whom you came to believe—as the Lord has assigned to each his task. I planted the seed, Apollos watered it, but God has been making it grow. So neither the one who plants nor the one who waters is anything, but only God, who makes things grow. The one who plants and the one who waters have one purpose, and they will each be rewarded according to their own labor. For we are co-workers in God’s service; you are God’s field, God’s building.
‭
I was a car guy who ran the building.

Now I’m a mangy foolish thing.

So whether pastor, priest, minister, bishop, whatever you and they call them…

Ask your Church guy.

Bullhorns always optional all around.

DID YOU KNOW?

• If you are going to be a friend to this world then you are going to make enemies with God?

Yep. Tough love on this one. There is no denying that evil rules this world currently. Everybody looking for that to change and to see a world without evil. There is a time coming where that will be so but clearly we ain’t there yet.

There is a flavor and platform for everybody and every sin imaginable.

Whether it’s a Comic Book Movie to Marvel at or the suggested links when you scrolling for ‘wholesome’ girl-on-girl action on Pornhub practicing the presence of God. Putting Him away when you want to maintain gets you given up to the depraved mind.

Does the Father see you choosing to enter his Kingdom or is he watching you choosing to hold onto beast world while trying Him on?

Does it surprise to know God wants you yet will allow you to choose to be an enemy of Him?

I’m Pro-Life myself.

You adulterous people, don’t you know that friendship with the world means enmity against God? Therefore, anyone who chooses to be a friend of the world becomes an enemy of God. Or do you think Scripture says without reason that he jealously longs for the spirit he has caused to dwell in us?

• James‬ ‭4:4-5‬‬‬

(I’ll give you the chapters and verses this throw.)

DID YOU KNOW?

• There are TWO deaths?

This one prompts my ‘that’s weird’ oh!-s more than most.

It’s what the Word and the Man say.

If you are born once, you will die twice.

If you are born twice, you will die once.

Understanding this is Key to your salvation.

Listening?

“But the cowardly, the unbelieving, the vile, the murderers, the sexually immoral, those who practice magic arts, the idolaters and all liars—they will be consigned to the fiery lake of burning sulfur. This is the second death.”
‭‭- Revelation‬ ‭21:8‬‬‬

Whoop! There it is.

I know! Revelation scares most people.

It’s also intimidating for Bible school train-wreck-ed church leaders.

The only thing we have to fear is…

“I tell you, my friends, do not be afraid of those who kill the body and after that can do no more. But I will show you whom you should fear: Fear him who, after your body has been killed, has authority to throw you into hell. Yes, I tell you, fear him.”

• ‭Luke‬ ‭12:4-5‬‬‬

Fear of God is the beginning of wisdom.

All You Need Is Love is a catchy song.

Wrath and Judgment is Promised.

Prophecy not Profit, See?

Tweet 👆🏽

They also hung the Pride flag on the embassy in Afghanistan and then acted surprised about those who followed their hearts and minds.

DID YOU KNOW?

• MANY who call Jesus ‘Lord’ will not enter the kingdom of heaven?

Jesus wants you. He wants everybody.

The gate is narrow and the keystone stumbles.

“Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only the one who does the will of my Father who is in heaven.”

• Matthew‬ ‭7:21‬‬‬

(The Kingdom Come. His Will Be Done)

The Father is the gardener and he prunes those who don’t do His will.

Are you running your race? Beating your own body?

Private jets fly sheep-costumed wolves to other continents so they can boast like McDonalds of millions saved!

How is that serving?

We receive our salvation when Lord Jesus returns if we are awaiting it when He returns.

Salvation is not only free…

It cannot be bought or sold.

DID YOU KNOW?

• We aren’t supposed to call anybody ‘father’ or ‘rabbi’?

Crazy, right?

I have a bunch of Catholic friends.

Don’t blame me.

I didn’t create the corrupt world religions.

It’s what the Man said…

“But you are not to be called ‘Rabbi,’ for you have one Teacher, and you are all brothers. And do not call anyone on earth ‘father,’ for you have one Father, and he is in heaven. Nor are you to be called instructors, for you have one Instructor, the Messiah.”

• Matthew‬ ‭23:8-10‬

People told me all along I couldn’t be one of these things without going to Bible College and reading all the drops from start to finish.

People who call themselves ‘Father’ and ‘Instructor’ told me these things.

Elders (EarLy-aDEpteRS)

I thank the Father for the Playbook.

Teachers are judged harsher which makes writing these questions a bit of a pressure exercise.

Not many of you should become teachers, my fellow believers, because you know that we who teach will be judged more strictly. We all stumble in many ways. Anyone who is never at fault in what they say is perfect, able to keep their whole body in check.
‭‭James‬ ‭3:1-2‬

I would imagine many a Church guy feels the pressure of answering such questions.

Is the Bible the Word of God?

I’m not perfect and I have received harsh rebuke from the Father.

That’s why I do not go beyond what is written.

DID YOU KNOW?

• We are our own priests for Lord Jesus Christ?

Kings too, but let’s keep the questions MElchiZedek for now.

I’m a priest for Jesus.

My own direct intercessor to the Almighty Lord.

I can be your priest for Jesus too if you have ears to hear me.

Are you a priest? Are you supposed to be?

As you come to him, the living Stone—rejected by humans but chosen by God and precious to him— you also, like living stones, are being built into a spiritual house to be a holy priesthood, offering spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through Jesus Christ.

• 1 Peter‬ ‭2:4-5‬

But you are a chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, God’s special possession, that you may declare the praises of him who called you out of darkness into his wonderful light.

• ‭‭1 Peter‬ ‭2:9‬

Are you coming to him? Are you chosen?

(Some of these you have to ask yourself.)

Don’t feel any pressure here.

You don’t have to wear any black robes and hide in closets with children. You won’t need a Burger King to fly you around the world collecting millions claimed served. You don’t even have to answer the questions your church guy has to!

DID YOU KNOW?

• Lord Jesus Christ doesn’t lose a single one of us that the Father chooses for him!

Jesus replied, “Anyone who loves me will obey my teaching. My Father will love them, and we will come to them and make our home with them. Anyone who does not love me will not obey my teaching. These words you hear are not my own; they belong to the Father who sent me.
‭‭- John‬ ‭14:23-24‬

Father’s words. The Word.

Nothing is impossible with the Father.

(Remember this when your loved ones die the first death.)

While I was with them, I protected them and kept them safe by that name you gave me. None has been lost except the one doomed to destruction so that Scripture would be fulfilled.

• John‬ ‭17:12‬

Is he with you? Is he protecting you?

He wants everybody.

He only loses one of the elect and Judas was prepared ahead of time for that.

You don’t have to save people. We sow. We scatter the seed. Some have ears to hear and some do not. Some are of the serpent. Some don’t have Spirit. Some just too busy struggling with the weeds of everyday life to be fruitful in this manner.

Some though… Produce.

When the harvesters come, I want to be good fruit. First and last kind of fruit. I want to be produce.

In the vine. In His name.

I’ve always been a producer. Ask somebody.

We don’t have to worry who has ears to hear. We don’t judge or decide anybody’s salvation. We don’t have to compete with the Burger Joints slinging salvation.

It’s Sow Easy.

The product is free and the clientele is elect.

There is no gatekeeper.

You have the Word and Jesus.

Relax and priest on.

Be ready to get asked one though…

DID YOU KNOW?

• God sends the powerful delusion?

A vaccine truther friend objected strenuously a few years ago with this one.

For this reason God sends them a powerful delusion so that they will believe the lie and so that all will be condemned who have not believed the truth but have delighted in wickedness.
‭‭- 2 Thessalonians‬ ‭2:11-12‬

What a cruel and mean God! was the tone.

Yeah. God is jealous.

He also told us so as the Spirit wrote the Bible via men over those thousands of years. Over and over and over again.

Concerning the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ and our being gathered to him, we ask you, brothers and sisters, not to become easily unsettled or alarmed by the teaching allegedly from us—whether by a prophecy or by word of mouth or by letter—asserting that the day of the Lord has already come. Don’t let anyone deceive you in any way, for that day will not come until the rebellion occurs and the man of lawlessness is revealed, the man doomed to destruction.
‭- 2 Thessalonians‬ ‭2:1-3‬

The adultery God hates is represented by the adultery of spouses. It isn’t sexual immorality he hates the most.

It is our unfaithfulness to Him that He hates.

Idolatry.

Why do you think the woman who rides the beast is called…

‘THE MOTHER OF PROSTITUTES AND OF THE ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH?’

The All-Caps are from John and the Spirit, not this mangy foolish priest.

I wonder if my lost truther friend has been found. If she has digested what she initially objected to.

It’s hard realizing the gate is narrow but the gate is narrow and many we love… love wickedness.

I digested the powerful delusion. Here.

It is sour in the stomach.

He is True, Just, and oh so Sovereign.

And He told you.

• @mikemullens

I have two very specific reasons why I ask you to ask your church guy.

Remind me to tell you them when we meet.

After you ask your guy, guize.

He did not say anything to them without using a parable. But when he was alone with his own disciples, he explained everything.
‭‭Mark‬ ‭4:34‬

Holy Spirit didn’t have to learn how to code.

Find a guy. Get your Keys.
