Good morning. Galatians chapter 6 beginning with verse 1. OKAY, This is clear GODLY orders. You who are responsible to, and controlled by the Holy Spirit, should restore,and SET RIGHT, then reinstate
a brother or sister in the Lord, who is over taken in misconduct or sin of any sort. This should be done without any sense of superiority and with all gentleness. Keep an attentive eye on yourself, lest you should be tempted as well. Now that is in verse 1 of Ephesians chapter 6. I think it's self-explanatory and very difficult to do in a busy world. First of all if i we're sitting at home and not going to Fellowship in a church with other believers, this usually is not going to occur. No matter what you may think or say you know that to be true. We are wrapped up so much in the cares of the world, that we never would get around to doing this. Has anyone noticed on the way to church all the people out in their yards playing with their shrubbery mowing lawns jogging,with or without the dogs lol.
In some cases sitting in a restaurant having breakfast talking about world events family problems all these things. Well people that's what lost people do, if we're doing it with him how can they tell the difference? The scripture is actually to the elect, meaning those who put all their trust and rely on Christ their savior for everything. So if you're in a small or big church you must keep these things in mind. Now this doesn't go on during the church service it goes on afterward. For small churches easy to notice because many in the small churches will go out to eat after church or socialize and at the church. But are we busy about the Lord's business if we're not doing this. According to this scripture we're not. We're supposed to Bear which means to endure and carry one another's burdens and Troublesome moral faults, and in this way fulfil and observe perfectly the law Christ Our Messiah and complete what is lacking in your obedience to it. Now people what I just said about burying and enduring and carrying one another's burdens, is inverse 2 of Galatians chapter 6.
Okay in verse 3 for if any person thinks himself to be somebody [ too important
to condescend to shoulder
anothers load] when he is nobody[ of superiority except in his own estimation] he deceives himself and cheats himself. Now this is found inverse 3 of Galatians chapter 6. Now simply put way too many Christians feel this way about themselves. Or at least they seem to be this way especially when we're talkin about events or activities going on in the world around us and abroad. But this clearly tells me that when I act that way I probably need to check up and remember that God knows that I am just flesh and i need to watch what i say, and pay more attention to the needs of others. Stop thinking more highly of yourselves as you should. In verse 4, the Bible says but let every person carefully scrutinize and examine and test his own contact and his own work. He can then have the personal satisfaction and joy of doing something commendable, meaning in itself alone, without resorting to boastful comparison with his neighbor. In this verse this could be not only speaking about spiritual gifts, people in church jealous of another's gift. I think it also to be speaking of, like it said, your neighbor. I am not acting as though I am a theologian writing a commentary. This is just a Blog that is not supposed to be too long. I'm just sharing. Let's look at verse 5 Galatians chapter 6. For every person we'll have to bear which means be equal to understanding and calmly receive. His own little load of Oppression faults. Now this is true no one out there has a life of gravy like we're told they do. According to the world of television, and I have to say so many Christians take counsel from the ungodly. That is a shame because this scripture clearly states that every person will bear his own load of oppressive faults. Our world today, and I mean American society European Society especially is way too busy 2 think on these things. Is easy in our daily chores things we have to do to not
I wonder how many are suffering and we don't know. They are to embarrassed to tell us. There's also the fact that its hard to tell in America because our culture says we must work for it. And we should as long as we can. So many have chosen to not work, and now it's hard to tell who needs help. I'm just Saying slow down some need financial assistance, and so so many need spiritual assistance from Godly Born Again Christians. Arrogance appearing to think we're something when we're not, the Bible is simply saying we should scrutinize our own selves examine our own selves test our conduct and then as Christians we can have a personal satisfaction and joy of doing something commendable. Before you get scared and start grabbing your wallets, I didn't mean handouts, this is for people that we know are in need. Not just some person standing on the street begging. Whether you know it or not I have to throw this in there, some beggars in America make more money then you do working by simply begging. This blog is my reflection on myself. The scripture is 4 anyone who is over taken in misconduct of sin, and how we should treat them. That's all. God bless I'm going to step out of this scripture move on to something else in a while. There are those out there that I have not seen in awhile, I want to tell you I love you with all of my heart. That's all I can do.
