Set Free Church Daytona "Broken" 5-18-14

Set Free Church Daytona "Broken" May 18 2014 Part I

Zeal, But No Righteousness!!!

Ministering to the physical needs of people is admirable, but neglecting the spirit by leaving out the way to salvation while tending to the body isn't. The former is needed, but the later is more important. They work together! ~ Pas

Set Free Daytona's "It's Friday, But Sunday Is a Coming!" II

What Is Your Excuse?

..........for if some reject, others will thankfully accept the offer. The very poor and low in the world, shall be as welcome to Christ as the rich and great..........

Luke 14:15-24 When one of those who were reclining at the table with Him heard this, he said to Him, “Blessed is everyone who will eat bread in the kingdom of God!”

Parable of the Dinner

But He said to him, “A man was giving a big dinner, and he invited many; and at the dinner hour he sent his slave to say to those who had been invited, ‘Come; for everything is ready now.’ “But they all alike began to make excuses. The first one said to him, ‘I have bought a piece of land and I need to go out and look at it; please consider me excused.’

“Another one said, ‘I have bought five yoke of oxen, and I am going to try them out; please consider me excused.’ “Another one said, ‘I have married a wife, and for that reason I cannot come.’ “And the slave came back and reported this to his master. Then the head of the household became angry and said to his slave, ‘Go out at once into the streets and lanes of the city and bring in here the poor and crippled and blind and lame.’

“And the slave said, ‘Master, what you commanded has been done, and still there is room.’ “And the master said to the slave, ‘Go out into the highways and along the hedges, and compel them to come in, so that my house may be filled. ‘For I tell you, none of those men who were invited shall taste of my dinner.’”

Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary

14:15-24 In this parable observe the free grace and mercy of God shining in the gospel of Christ, which will be food and a feast for the soul of a man that knows its own wants and miseries. All found some pretence to put off their attendance.

This reproves the Jewish nation for their neglect of the offers of Christ's grace. It shows also the backwardness there is to close with the gospel call. The want of gratitude in those who slight gospel offers, and the contempt put upon the God of heaven thereby, justly provoke him.

The apostles were to turn to the Gentiles, when the Jews refused the offer; and with them the church was filled. The provision made for precious souls in the gospel of Christ, has not been made in vain; for if some reject, others will thankfully accept the offer.

The very poor and low in the world, shall be as welcome to Christ as the rich and great; and many times the gospel has the greatest success among those that labour under worldly disadvantages and bodily infirmities. Christ's house shall at last be filled; it will be so when the number of the elect is completed.

Cure for Envy!!!

C. H. Spurgeon

Let not thine heart envy sinners: but be thou in the fear of the Lord all the day long. For surely there is an end; and thine expectation shall not be cast off. (Proverbs 23:17-18)

When we see the wicked prosper we are apt to envy them. When we hear the noise of their mirth and our own spirit is heavy, we half think that they have the best of it. This is foolish and sinful. If we knew them better, and specially if we remembered their end, we should pity them.

The cure for envy lies in living under a constant sense of the divine presence, worshiping God and communing with Him all the day long, however long the day may seem. True religion lifts the soul into a higher region, where the judgment becomes more clear and the desires are more elevated. The more of heaven there is in our lives, the less of earth we shall covet. The fear of God casts out envy of men.

The deathblow of envy is a calm consideration of the future. The wealth and glory of the ungodly are a vain show. This pompous appearance flashes out for an hour and then is extinguished. What is the prosperous sinner the better for his prosperity when judgment overtakes him? As for the godly man, his end is peace and blessedness, and none can rob him of his joy; wherefore, let him forgo envy and be filled with sweet content.

Yep!!!

I get aggravated at some of my friends, who think Baptist don't believe in the gifts. That's not true, they just believe in more than that.

There isn't much difference if any. I have been in the Church of God's the last 2 services I've preached, and what i loved about them were, it didn't matter, as long as we preach Jesus, but.............

...........last night while out at the store, i invited someone to Set Free and they asked were it was. I said the Halifax Baptist Association, and they said they were saved and baptized in the Baptist church, but NOW they believe in the gifts............like healing..................... and left the Baptist................WHAT?

Someone has pulled the wool over their eyes, is what happened. I have preached in 100's of baptist churches and they all believe in healing and many have come forth for healing prayer.........James 5:16...........I have prayed for 1,000's to be healed.............and some were...................nothing I did.........I just agreed with the one asking, and claimed the promise of Jesus, were if 2 agree and ask............but I don't go around with this as my MAIN teaching or doctrine........................my main teaching is, FAITH in Jesus for ALL things.

My point is.......................as I said earlier this week........................"God has been served by ignorant men (like me), but He is never served by ignorance."

BTW, this person asked me to pray for a friend to be healed............I said, lets do it right here, right now, so at CVS I claimed the promise (again) were if 2 people agree on any one thing on earth it will be done for them by the heavenly Father.........and as always I prayed for God to reveal Himself to the one I'm praying for, that they would know IT'S HIM WHO HEALS..........He will keep His promise IF our prayers ARE reaching Heaven???.........just saying..................as there are many hindrances to prayers..............like an unforgiving spirit.........Mark 11:25-26....................or like our sin.......................Isaiah 59: 1-2..............

Preach Him....................that's all you have to do........................because then "men will be drawn to Him"...........................Preach Him..................and watch what happens.......................Preach Him..................and.........................
