Galatians 6:15; For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision availeth any thing, nor uncircumcision, but a new creature. “TO BE IN CHRIST JESUS, THERE MUST BE A CAUSE!” 2 Chronicles 16:1; In the six and thirtieth year of the reign of Asa Baasha king of Israel came up against Judah, and built Ramah, to the intent that he might let none go out or come in to Asa king of Judah. v2; Then Asa brought out silver and gold out of the treasures of the house of the Lord and of the king’s house, and sent to Ben-hadad king of Syria, that dwelt at Damascus, saying, v3; There is a league between me and thee, as there was between my father and thy father: behold, I have sent thee silver and gold; go, break thy league with Baasha king of Israel, that he may depart from me. The high place, Asa being himself. The Lord can’t be with you being yourself. 1 Corinthians 15:36-38; v36; Thou fool, that which thou sowest is not quickened, except it die. 2 Chronicles 16:7; And at that time Hanani the seer came to Asa king of Judah, and said unto him, Because thou hast relied on the king of Syria, and not relied on the Lord thy God, therefore is the host of the king of Syria escaped out of thine hand. v9; For the eyes of the Lord run to and fro throughout the whole earth, to shew himself strong in the behalf of them whose heart is perfect toward him. Herein thou hast done foolishly: therefore from henceforth thou shalt have wars. v10; Then Asa was wroth with the seer, and put him in a prison house; for he was in a rage with him because of this thing. And Asa oppressed some of the people the same time. That high place you in the flesh. Galatians 3:3; Are ye so foolish? having begun in the Spirit, are ye now made perfect by the flesh? “TO BE IN CHRIST JESUS, THERE MUST BE A CAUSE!” 2 Corinthians 10:5; Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ. Acts 21:13; Then Paul answered, What mean ye to weep and to break mine heart? for I am ready not to be bound only, but also to die at Jerusalem for the name of the Lord Jesus. There is a cause, you being done!  2 Timothy 1:12; For the which cause I also suffer these things: nevertheless I am not ashamed: for I know whom I have believed, and am persuaded that he is able to keep that which I have committed unto him against that day. “TO BE IN CHRIST JESUS, THERE MUST BE A CAUSE!” Teaching!

“BUT, JESUS BROUGHT GROWTH!” The church today, is often found looking through the lenses of the beneath; John 8:23; And he said unto them, Ye are from beneath; I am from above: ye are of this world; I am not of this world. “BUT, JESUS BROUGHT GROWTH!” 1 Chronicles 4:9; And Jabez was more honourable than his brethren: and his mother called his name Jabez, saying, Because I bare him with sorrow; Job 14:1; Man that is born of a woman is of few days, and full of trouble. “BUT, JESUS BROUGHT GROWTH!” But, Jabez was said to be honourable. He believed in truth and doing the right things. He did not want a distressed life. John 6:63; It is the spirit that quickeneth; the flesh profiteth nothing: the words that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and they are life. 1 Chronicles 4:10; And Jabez called on the God of Israel, saying, Oh that thou wouldest bless me indeed, and enlarge my coast, and that thine hand might be with me, and that thou wouldest keep me from evil, that it may not grieve me! And God granted him that which he requested. Jabez wanted an enlarge coast, a seashore; what the word had to land. Matthew 6:33; But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you. “BUT, JESUS BROUGHT GROWTH!” Matthew 17:14; And when they were come to the multitude, there came to him a certain man, kneeling down to him, and saying, (Philippians 3:14; I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus) Matthew 17:15; Lord, have mercy on my son: for he is lunatick, and sore vexed: for ofttimes he falleth into the fire, and oft into the water. (Jude 1:23; And others save with fear, pulling them out of the fire; hating even the garment spotted by the flesh.) Matthew 17:16; And I brought him to thy disciples, and they could not cure him. (Church, now where is the growth; John 1:17; For the law was given by Moses, but grace and truth came by Jesus Christ. Titus 2:11; For the grace of God that bringeth salvation hath appeared to all men, v12; Teaching us that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live soberly, righteously, and godly, in this present world; v13; Looking for that blessed hope, and the glorious appearing of the great God and our Saviour Jesus Christ.) Matthew 17:17; Then Jesus answered and said, O faithless and perverse generation, how long shall I be with you? how long shall I suffer you? bring him hither to me. (What’s taking you so long; Mark 4:24; And he said unto them, Take heed what ye hear; with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you: and unto you that hear shall more be given.) Matthew 17:18; And Jesus rebuked the devil; and he departed out of him: and the child was cured from that very hour. (Where is the growth? Hebrews 4:2; For unto us was the gospel preached, as well as unto them: but the word preached did not profit them, not being mixed with faith in them that heard it. James 4:7; Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.) “BUT, JESUS BROUGHT GROWTH!” Teaching! Overseer/Apostle
