“HURT TO BE DELIVERED!” Genesis 19:17; And it came to pass, when they had brought them forth abroad, that he said, Escape for thy life; look not behind thee, neither stay thou in all the plain; escape to the mountain, lest thou be consumed. *We are living in a time where church folks don’t want to go through the hurt of leaving themselves!It’s called delivered!1 Corinthians 1:26-29; v26; For ye see your calling, brethren, how that not many wise men after the flesh, not many mighty, not many noble, are called: v29; That no flesh should glory in his presence. “HURT TO BE DELIVERED!” Genesis 19:18; And Lot said unto them, Oh, not so, my Lord; v19; Behold now, thy servant hath found grace in thy sight, and thou hast magnified thy mercy, which thou hast shewed unto me in saving my life; and I cannot escape to the mountain, lest some evil take me, and I die. *It hurts to leave the way you see yourself. James 1:22-24; v23; For if any be a hearer of the word, and not a doer, he is like unto a man beholding his natural face in a glass: v24; For he beholdeth himself, and goeth his way, and straightway forgetteth what manner of man he was. Genesis 19:20; Behold now, this city is near to flee unto, and it is a little one: Oh, let me escape thither, (is it not a little one?) and my soul shall live. *When there is an absence of being hurt. Your life yet exist. Mark 8:34; And when he had called the people unto him with his disciples also, he said unto them, Whosoever will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me. v35; For whosoever will save his life shall lose it; but whosoever shall lose his life for my sake and the gospel’s, the same shall save it. “HURT TO BE DELIVERED!” Hebrews 11:24-27; v24; By faith Moses, when he was come to years, refused to be called the son of Pharaoh’s daughter; v25; Choosing rather to suffer affliction with the people of God, than to enjoy the pleasures of sin for a season; v27; By faith he forsook Egypt, not fearing the wrath of the king: for he endured, as seeing him who is invisible. *It hurts, but you’ll come down, to be another way. Romans 8:18-21; v18; For I reckon that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us. v21; Because the creature itself also shall be delivered from the bondage of corruption into the glorious liberty of the children of God. “HURT TO BE DELIVERED!” 1 Peter 4:1; Forasmuch then as Christ hath suffered for us in the flesh, arm yourselves likewise with the same mind: for he that hath suffered in the flesh hath ceased from sin; v2; That he no longer should live the rest of his time in the flesh to the lusts of men, but to the will of God. *Hurt, the form of being corrected! Hebrews 12:11; Now no chastening for the present seemeth to be joyous, but grievous: nevertheless afterward it yieldeth the peaceable fruit of righteousness unto them which are exercised thereby. *Hurt, let it bring you down right! 2 Corinthians 4:7-17; v17; For our light affliction, which is but for a moment, worketh for us a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory. “HURT TO BE DELIVERED!” Teaching!
