Note – At the time of this taping I was having to make some very difficult decisions. Either continue to fight against apostasy from within a religious organization or walk away. For the previous five years I had been looking for a truth speaking church within my area, and continually found teachings contrary to the Word of God in every church I visited. A family member kept coaxing me to keep looking, in the hopes I would find what I was looking for, a believing, faithful people striving to be obedient to the Word of God. “Doer’s of the Word.” Although I have found individuals, I’ve not yet found a religious organization that fits this criteria to date 02/05/2024….more to the story later.
Topics touched on – 1. Every hurt, hangup, and habit mankind does to mankind, God does not do. 2. God disciplines the error out of us. 3. The Lord warns us that sin crouches at our door. 4. How important is God’s covenant with you, to you? 5. Being sanctified by the Word of God and prayer.
Additional notes – I returned to a Christian religious organization for a short time in the late 1990’s or early 2000. I’m not sure of exact date. I thought going to church was worshiping God, and the natural order of things was to be baptized into the religion. However, I was on the Methadone maintenance program, taking upwards of 120 mlg of Methadone daily. The Pastor knew this, and proceeded with the baptismal classes. I have no idea what we talked about? What I remember was more of a counselor/patient type conversation. When the time for my baptism approached, the Pastor told me to just say yes to all the questions. I had no idea what I was agreeing to, and today would not agree. I hope one day to be able to talk to Pastor JV? He’s got some explaining to do!
Scripture references found – Proverbs 29, 1 John 4, 1 Corinthians 6, Revelation 14, 1 Timothy 4
Attention – We experienced technical difficulties for the next few episodes taped on this date. Apologies. I had too many videos and pictures on my phone and was running out of space.
