Hey.
We're creating a problem secondary travel.
Creation.
Law.
And we're going to have to do it, and we're glad, very.
This law and creating God, the grammar grammar royal grilled baby and breathe and breathe and breathe and breathe make you feel free.
My Spanish is that I'm feeling it right on the whole feeling. The reason I'm not feeling irritated from all of the world's entire things that I can't get into.
Where are you?
Sun and water change.
Know.
The thighs and.
I'm so crazy crying.
Oh God.
About the end, I left first.
Flosses 2, verse 18.
That no man that guide you of your reward and the voluntary humility and worshipping of angels including the lowest synchrony of not seen vaguely popped up by his pleasure environment. I'm not walking ahead with all the body and fans having nervous ministers and live together increases with the inpatient job.
Everyone can get dead with Christ and a nunnament to the world. Why is all living in the world? Are you subject to ordinances? Let's not. They do not handle not with all of the Paris that you're using. That's the commandments and talking with them, which things happen here to show the wisdom and will work and humility and the collecting of the body of the many owner to the satisfying of the flesh.
If you then be really look bright, seek those researcher above the price and your right hand would go. Set your elections on things to fall, not on things on the earth where you are dead and your life is right through the door.
But practicals are alive.
Then shall be also a mere rest of his daughter.
Now you also put off all these angry filter communication out of your mouth.
Why not one to another see that you put off the old man with his feet, and I put all the new manure, the knowledge of everything in here, where there is neither Greek or due to certification nor uncertainty, they are buried.
At all and in all.
I'm saying it might be helpful before we go on.
Think he's first to speak of a new moon?
And for 16 first, to get better and respect of an holy day, or of the new moon, or of the Sabbath day, you turn to the 81St crown.
Read, sing aloud unto God. Our strength make a joyful noise under the God of Jacob.
00:10:05
Take us down and bring hit her the timbrel with pleasant heart, with the fulfilling blow up the trumpet in the new moon and the appointed in the time appointed on our solemn faith day. This was a statue for it doesn't say the church doesn't.
Order carefully. This was a statute for Israel.
And the law of the God of Jacob.
The Christians, the early Christians waking up with these.
Jewish peace days. These holy days and one of the Jewish peace days was the Feast of the New Moon. Well, it doesn't refer to the blessings of the Church at all.
But it refers to the blessing of Israel.
In the coming millennial day.
You can see by the reading of those verses.
Of the day of glory and blessing. The blowing of trumpet, Well, the blowing of compass is calling together. Find in Matthew 24.
All the tribes of Israel, when the Lord comes in his glory and sets up His Kingdom here on earth, and we can see if we consider the new moon.
App type is of Israel.
To see the moon wanes and until it disappeared so fast, and then after a while you see a little Crescent on the western side. You see there is the new moon. The moon's returning. Well, Israel has disappeared in the ways of God.
Israel is not a science. She is.
Who am I? Not my people at the present time.
So, Israel, where is the dark side? But when this present dispensation of the Church is over?
God is going to take up Israel again, and then you'll have the new moon, Israel's return. So how out of faith it was to be celebrating Israel's peace?
In another dispensation, and I suppose we could say that if we want to use the moon at all of the type of the church, we should use the full moon, because the tongue representing Price and the moon representing the church in that figure, all the light that the moon give of what it reflects from the light of the sun.
So all the light that the church has, this Dark World.
Is its reflection of Christ.
And the only time you know that the the moon has eclipsed is when the world gets between the sun and the moon. Then she goes into an eclipse. And how true that is the connection with the.
With what we're going on with.
As long as we are in the enjoyment of Christ, He is shining upon us. We radiate the light of His glory. If we're walking in communion and enjoying Christ, there's something of Christ that's been in our lives. When we allow the world to come in by, then there is that.
That eclipse and we become a dark body giving no light at all.
Getting there.
18 verse the including the little things you have not seen. I think it's both about the Amos this morning.
Isn't that offensive?
Sound part is Christian to observe.
Keep away from anything on the alcohol metaphysics.
00:15:04
Anything along that line give it a wide burst.
Those are the Sabbath and have lost their parents.
And come to be known personally have apostatize.
As a result of that, we get this kind of thing, Spirit.
Related Isms Causeway.
Just just have nothing to do with the weather, including those things that you have not seen.
That.
We use a military term. You see around military camps all over the country, you see a sign off limits.
Well, this this kind of thing is off limits.
The word of God.
Warn us not to listen to anything that is.
Erroneous that we need to be contrary to God's word and not even to listen to him. A little verse comes before me sees my son to hear the instruction that causes to air when the words of knowledge.
Cease my son to hear. Don't listen to. I will find this contrary to God's word. Turn away from.
Sometimes he could have curiosity, want to hear what it's all about. I remember a young man.
That I was.
Grandpa sending in Minneapolis many years ago he had been given a very wired on Gordon young fella. He came from England and he.
Became a cook. He was a cook on one of the big hotels in New York City, and they got to drinking and finally came down so low that he couldn't hold a job. And he became a tramp and he tramped over the whole country for for years was in prison in different places.
Picked up on, footlined the bars. A word of poor done. He came into a gospel meeting in Minneapolis many years ago.
And rags and then room and he heard the Gospel. In fact, it was a Roma even, but a Roman Catholic. He heard the gospel and wonderfully saved. We got to preach the gospel. He went to the same Bible school. It was the same classes that I was in there.
At that time and then he began to double in what was called the higher criticism, the books written by these, these false teachers, the best preachers of the gospel, the books denying the fundamental truths of God's Word.
He began to read those books and in conversation with him one time after we got through the school, he told me what books he was reading.
And by the way, this young man, his name was William Kelly.
And you sound never reading these books. I warned them. I said, William, you better leave them alone. You better not topple those things. Well, he said, I'm reading them source to find out just what they teach in order that I may be able to contest it and to overthrow them and refuse. I said, well, you better be careful.
The next thing I heard after I left town, some long a little while after that, was accepted those teachings.
And began to began to teach them themselves.
And it was with great sorrow we had that, but in about a year's time.
To my joy, I heard that it had been delivered. I thought the, the, the.
Critical books throwing them overboard and was restored to the Lord and restored to the truth. And I believe that the Lord did it because he was a genuinely converted soul saved her the death of sin. The Lord delivered him, but for a long time he was affected by those errors and they're so disturbed by them. Well, if they had needed that verse of God's Word, He had been delivered for all that.
There there's the word says save my son.
Here the instruction of cautious air, the words of knowledge.
00:20:35
Who have been saved and gathered. Very true. We're not winning stuff. Definitely. Some of them are even needed.
Back.
I have saved from every.
That was a wonderful property and the very God of peace sanctified you both and I pray God your whole spirit and soul and body be preserved places after coming. Our Lord needs to pray. That was a good word that Thomas Metoo Walsh and do it.
Place reminds in replacing our level is not.
And over here in Philippians 2, we have much concerning the minus price.
It tells us there in the second chapter of Philippians.
And first of all, the second verse.
The one part of one line.
Third version but it loaded in spy and the fifth verse let this mind see you, which was also in Christ Jesus and we get the protection and the 4th chapter Philippians.
And the first 7.
At the beach, of course, passing all over the sand and shall keep your hearts and minds.
Through faith, Jesus forget it for heart and mind since the dangerous thing.
Be going on in subjective manner.
Not sufficient to the truth, not obedience, right? Not having his mind going on as we're having an easy bird popped up, popped up.
My a flesh in mind as a dangerous thing, tracing of the enemy on this light, to see a conference go by without calling the attention, especially of the young people.
Corinthians 10.
And I believe the reason why we feel so strongly about this person is because he's he's felt the necessity of it in his own life.
Secondary and stem.
And in order to get the connection we will leave this 4th 1St following first one has in mind 2nd Corinthians 10 reading the fourth verse of weapons of our warfare are not carnal. That might be true thought of pulling down the strongholds. Now this is our first casting on imaginations. Read the March casting down release me and every high thing that exhausted itself against the knowledge of God.
And bringing into captivity every thought.
Do the obedience of Christ.
Robert we can't overcome assignment. Young people are being faced with unbelief all the way through their schooling, and it's increasing.
I'll simply give no place to leave thoughts of Uncle Lee, catch them violently down, casting down reason, every thought bringing in the captivity, every thought to the obedience of Christ. You may not understand all these things.
00:25:04
May not be able to give a reason, you may not be able to satisfy the minds of those that challenge you about it, but simply take your stand on the word of God and say, I believe it and by the grace of God I'm going to live by it until the Lord takes me home. I have no ear, no ear whatsoever from what you're trying to tell me.
It's important to know the Shepherd's voice.
In the past of John.
Read about the Shepherd's voice.
Works 27.
My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me.
So important to know the shepherd's voice. It's not important to know all these other voices of imaginations or reasons and whatnot, but it is important to know the shepherd's voice.
It's like the the banker.
He doesn't have to know what all the counterfeit money looks like or feels like or sounds like, but he does have to know what good money feels like and sounds like. And when he knows the good money, he'll recognize the counterpart as soon as it comes along. And so if we know the shepherd's voice, we don't know the commonplace when it comes along. It means words.
That we have here.
Which you have not seen.
With that name, with the vision of faith.
No, it's it's trying to penetrate the unseen world.
It needs to be. It needs to be denied the privilege of getting through that curtain catalysed or don't try to get through. God has told us all of life on the other side that we need to know.
So we've been involved and don't go further than the faith leads us or the Word of God and it will be on safe ground.
And the 119 Psalm and verse 128 is another good verse to add to the one our brother McMillan gave us.
That was a wonderful verse in Proverbs 1927 that he gave us ceased my son to hear the instruction that caused it to her from the words of knowledge, but Psalm 119 verse 128 is.
I esteem all thy precepts concerning all things to be right, and I hate every false way.
And then the Lord Jesus said in Mark 4 verse 24.
Take heed what you hear. Take heed what you hear. I believe that we know what it is to be saddened in our spirits.
When we discover some of the beloved Saints, the ought to know better when they are dabbling into questionable religious reading.
And what they're hearing.
Perhaps over the radio you discover that they're getting in confusion. They're coming to you and they say, is that true? Well, they're losing their berries, but dabbling in these days.
Will only spoil your spirit and your faith. It will not.
Minister Christ and keep you in communion.
Happy communion with him and his thoughts.
Don't we have enough good ministry without dabbling in these things? All we have enough to occupy them. First of all, the word itself. And that's so much good ministry. There's a lot of it back in the lounge. And if you don't have all you need, why you can get more there.
Another verse that is, I believe, very important. I know it's very helpful to me.
Remember that an unsafe college professor, no matter how many degrees you have.
Or her clever years, he cannot possibly give you the fruit of God because his mind is darkness. The God of the world as blamed the mind and then to believe not and he can't give it to you, so don't expect it. And when it ties to instruct you in spiritual things.
00:30:17
Remember that he'll always be wrong. It can't be right. A verse in the 50th Psalm let us know that Psalm 50.
Verse 16.
But on to the wicked, God said, What hast thou to do to declare my subjects, or that thou should take my covenant in thy mouth?
Seeing thou hast description, and cast us my words behind thee. These men have refused. Gods were the hated gods instructions. They've reduced God's words.
That cast God's words behind their backs. And God said, what do you do to do to take my things into your mouth or to instruct people and my things you know nothing about them.
And God calls on the food. The fool had said in his heart, There's no God. He's a fool. God says. Bill denies God and his word. And why should we take our learning from fools?
Psalm 15, verse 16.
I'm 70. Add a word as to the dabbling in the modern translations.
There are many translations in the English language, but we're living in days when they're turning them out.
Several every year.
And the sum total.
Of the modern things itself so well.
Advertised so highly is this.
Everyone of them, no matter how many good renderings they do have.
They also have confusion.
They positively have confusion in that the translators are never able to rise any higher than their spiritual understanding of God's mind.
Translation doesn't take.
Scholarship only.
Very much of it requires God's mind and help and guidance and knowledge of His mind elsewhere in His Word to know how to translate correctly and.
I do believe I should say this too, that besides the Authorized Version, God has peculiarly given.
The most faithful translation.
To those that were gathered to his name.
In about 1881.
When Mr. Darby's translation was given and will not find.
A better translation for faithfulness or rendering. None other comes up.
Our equals are hard to compare with it, so why do we have to play around with a dabble in these other things? I'd advise you not to.
I think we'll find that those who have been.
Called fundamentalists in the past, and if there's still any left.
They have used the New translation and garbage translation. They may not have mentioned it, they may not have said where they got it, but that's where they got it. That's where they got the sound rendering of the Word of God. You take parentheses in the Schofield Bible. Why? The marginal readings there invariably follow the J&D translation.
Well, I'm sure that's where he got, that's where he got those notes was from the new translation.
Other than that 18th verse, that's no one. I'm reading it now. And this excellent translation that Brother Brown here as soon as encouraging us to respect, I'm gonna read this verse in that translation. Let no one fraudulently deprive you.
00:35:18
Of your pride during his whole will and humility and worshiping of angels.
So what I wanted to call attention to?
Fraudulently deprived you of your pride doing his own will.
To be taking our own will and divine things.
Is a serious thing, it's a loss for our soul's mouth and it will be the.
Occasions you are losing our reward hereafter, you're going to lose your pride.
Yeah, I asked. Is there any other contribution to that question as to the pride, as to what our brother suggested? What do you have in mind?
Well, I.
Have always looked at it like our brother Barry has given it, but the question rises into my mind.
If in this epistle.
The main object all the way through is to preserve.
The keeping Christ, and Christ only before us, and He is everything to us.
Now I don't want to mislead you. I asked the question, what do you think about cries other than the remark of other days?
Well, isn't the cutting the truth is the price before the sword, and that's very far and narrow of the question of rewards.
Christ is the answer. So here the next verse. The opposite of that is not holding the head, not holding the head, that's the the opposite.
Probably all the bottom like joints of them that encourage ministers and sit together Christians. With the increase of God, God has normal growth for that body. That's normal version. It's provided for us and he wants it to increase with the increase of thought.
I don't want to be sure and our spiritual life and relationships.
That we hold ahead in such a way that we can get the benefit encourages.
The ascendant head is going to take care of the body, make full provision for it. It's for us to place ourselves in a position where we do not have conflicting influences constantly playing upon.
When the Samaritan mountain man to the side of the road.
And.
No place for your soul and life is going to be cared for as in that place where the head is acknowledged and where there's jealousy for him at every turn, or there's no compromise permitted. There is where our souls are going to be nourished up in truth because we can take the heaven with it. That's why we should be out to the reading meetings. So that's the behind the sound of the word.
The Lord is in the mix and the Spirit of God is there to direct these people and the understanding of the precious things of Christ.
And the truth is brought out there, error is exposed. And as the years go by, it's wonderful how much we can learn of God's things. And the meeting, the reading meetings especially. I went to a funeral of a friend.
00:40:02
The father, The parents have been in the meeting.
And I heard a brother in Christ reach that funeral.
Question about being a brother and brother.
You ought to know a lot better than you did.
We didn't know a lot better than him.
But said publicly that everybody in this room will have to pass through the same experience as this one lying here in the public. Pass through everybody here. Remember that. Everybody here.
Oh how sad to get up preaching the funeral of a proposed Christian and make a statement like that.
Trevor, we are never liberty to play with God's truth. Never.
And be ashamed.
For Martin gathered his large name to get up and publicly make such a statement as that.
There are two versions of Ephesians 4.
Four Seasons 4, beginning in verse 12.
Season 412.
The purpose of the gift finds operative in the assembly.
Are for the perfecting of the state, for the work of the sinistry, for the identified of the body of Christ.
There was all of the unity of faith and of the knowledge of the Santa Claus under a perfect path onto the measure of the statue of opportunity that the next one, the no more children taught to have grown cared about with every witness. Doctrine requires a slight offense, and cutting traffic provided reliability, you see.
But seeking the truth in love they show up is to give in all things.
According to the effects of working the made of everybody can make an increase of the body constant antibiotic sound in love.
That's the word that gives us the practical.
Side of the holding of the head out of alike you get to see where the body is constantly in reference to.
The the headed glory, letting the the ministry, the nurse come down from a glorified Christ by the faith that God has given in the church. For that the whole church is ministered to.
Very filled up.
That Bible school we can get. This is the assembly coming together for the ministry of the Word, reading of the Word. That's where the Holy Spirit is present.
The Lord is present, still isn't for that's right.
Far from the Holy Spirit, but you couldn't claim back in the Bible school as we know them today.
The spirit might be with an individual, but we certainly wouldn't be there corporately. Regard would the Lord be there corporately?
So what man calls order is disorder and in the things of God and organizes everything as a man at the head of of what goes on.
Not there old believers, but God's order is recognizing Christ as they get and waiting on Him to guide by His Spirit.
00:45:14
That's true.
Yeah, the Spirit of God is in the family cooperatively to his thing.
You have the two things. When the Holy Spirit came down on the day of Pentecost and filled all the place where they were assembled, and He sat upon each of them, they were all filled with the Holy Ghost. So you get those two things.
Indwelling the believer personally and then willing in the assembly there to to.
To be guided by the head and glory of to all the ministers.
Through the praise of the assembly, the functioning, in other words, of the assembly down here, that's what constitutes.
Life, life, life itself is is not unity. Unity is by the indwelling Spirit of God sent down from the ascended head. Those 120 in the upper room have life because the Spirit of Comprende, but it's not unity there to find the Holy Spirit came down to them. Pentecost. They were all baptized in one box.
It was instantaneous.
It was never repeated, though it did have a compliment.
When Peter carried out his Commission.
Was there Gentiles, perhaps in the Spirit came there, as he did on the Day of Pentecost. But it's only a component of Pentecost. There was only one Pentecost.
Five left baptism of the Spirit church explorer that farm to unit and it has never been repeated and there's no such thing in the word of God as individual being baptized through the Spirit of God. It's perfectly that they're baptized, they've been rolled out.
The problem is that multi pack zoo we have to use the keys. Yes, nothing was good. I mean that's eight. We have the.
And the next we have the Gentile, do we not? But how musically? It's all in one hole, is it?
How is this correct really, that when we are together they remember the Lord in his death? Or am I beating my kids?
Last, we wait on the Lord.
For he died by the Spirit. We're not waiting on the Spirit to move us. We're waiting on the Lord to direct the spider. Is that a correct statement? I believe it is not fair. Isn't it important? I do?
Because there are groups of people and all they say, well, the fair movement, they have all kinds of.
Of.
Things going on go on.
The table energized by the Spirit, the Spirit caused them to do this Wellness is waiting on the Lord to get his mind. The first him and him that the Lord would have fun this morning and most of the time when he would have to praise offer to the Lord.
Well then, he died by the Spirit.
And he always died in consistency with the words, have he not?
Is the reason why we should think of it that way. The Lord guided by the Spirit to become. In order to be guided by the Spirit, there must be submission to the law, and it was not submitted to the Lord and can't hope to be guided by the Spirit.
I had one of those groups of which.
One of them invited me to his meeting years ago.
That he wanted to tell the Army because we're having a wonderful time, because we don't even need to buy it, because we're getting our revelations direct from the Spirit.
00:50:08
That's how far off center these things can be. Those that are not guided by the worst. Well then I felt that of all the assembly meeting, they were breaking the press.
Is not something to be disturbed by a quiet waiting on the Lord and precious, sometimes in silence, then the assembly meeting are the most precious.
Seasons of communion and worship that we have at right for the Smith.
There can be two properly school but I do find in a Muslim assessment.
That we ought to be guided to love and violence that's.
And then comes back to the question that we.
What there is to be designed to allegiance to the word rather than to be guided by the word. There is that absolute obedience without reason.
Don't you think that?
It's increase.
And this 91St increases.
The increase of God, is that not corporately? Is that not the assembly that can do? I was thinking of the figure that's used to.
13th of Matthew out of the other places. Revelation.
You have Pearl. You know that little Pearl is perfect, but it's also perfect when it's large.
But it's still perfect no matter how much it increases still.
The assembly is seen in the trial here.
We sometimes think of our blessings as being individual, and they are.
Said And we do have that which we enjoy, and we must, must always think of being.
Such foreign fears apart of the body.
Is it not? So keep that in mind. The increase is as well.
The simply does not teach, is taught, and it is a.
Well, brother.
Again.
He gave some apostle, some prophets, some evangelists, come pastors and teachers.
So we have the writing of the apostles of the prophet. It doesn't the Old Testament problem here. See the apostles proceed the the prophet. In Ephesians there were New Testament problems.
00:55:05
And.
Then we have 3 gifts mentioned.
The evangelist, the pastor and the teacher and these three gifts will continue till we come to the major, the statue of furnace of Christ. That's when we're in glory with Christ. So no matter how how much confusion comes in or how busy the enemy is to rob the people of God, these three gifts will be.
Provided.
Or the church to the end of the distant faith, the evangelist in the past and the deepest. The evangelist goes out and brings in the material, and the pastor and the teacher takes use of it in the assembly. Things are in divine order.
So that's the way that the the church is taught through those gifts.
That are provided by an offended Christ and glory and no human ordination or no theological schools that provide these gifts. They might go through that system and be a real gift, but that isn't the way to give. It is bestowed and you notice that it's after Christ defends up on high that he bestows these gifts.
He sent out his well apostles during his ministry, but that wasn't for the church. It was only after he offended that he sold these gift. And we need to remember that the gift are the persons themselves, those who are teachers, pastors and so on.
Also need to remember that gifts are always universal, not local.
Office is logo.
There are elders and deacons, soldiers. Elders definitely chose ordained calls in every church, but they were only local.
A gift is always universal.
The Lord gives the gift of the vandals. Well, he's from the bathrooms for every vote. If he gets the gift as a pastor, given to the church as a pastor. He's a pastor wherever he is.
And the same was through the teacher. In other words, there's no such thing in scripture as the pastor of a church, but there is such a thing director as a pastor of the church.
All the transmensus difference most people.
And remember, wiser than Scripture.
So.
We can say well.
He's the *******.
Our assembly.
No, he may be at the present moment.
We'll see it Des Moines we're talking about. He may be here in the moment. We're thankful to have him, but we have no claim on him. The boy has no flame on that man as as their *******. He's a pastor wherever God may seem sent to sending.
They have numerous kids in the same center. You see that in the 13th of Acts if I turn to that for the moment.
Acts 13, verse one.
Now there were in the assembly that wasn't handy off certain profits.
The prophet, prophets and teachers, not the teacher, but teacher.
They were all at one meeting of this particular time.
They didn't all stay together very long because we find some of them.
Going forth on a mission for the next murder, as the minister to the Lord and fastest, the Holy Ghost said, separate me, Barnabas and Saul from the work.
01:00:12
When the apaste.
They laid their hands on them and let them go.
Well, now we know from the scriptures that wrote Paul and Barnabas were apostles.
But here they are.
We find them here in this Church of Antioch and don't stay there. And when we went to the next place they were just as much as possible there as the word Antioch.
We're driving the prophet for the problem. Let's give this word off.
Well, I believe rather experience very simple.
You have a brother?
Give forth a word of prophecy, which is.
He can't say, well, I just I just had to speak. I just could not since till I had to get up. Oh no, he didn't. He didn't have to do the spirits of the prophets are subject to the prophets. I could never say, well, I I just had to have my turn. I had to get up and see what I did. No, he didn't. The spirit that the prophets are subject to the prophets. How do you have to mean the problem?
Carried away with a with a frenzy.
What's my brother?
In the 13th of X, they lit their hands on them and they departed, being sent forth to the Holy Ghost. That's taken as a war for ordinations.
That packages of that kind, they did their harms on them. But in these cases that you've referred to, these are men that were preaching the gospel for years.
And I've been sent forth by the Lord years before this, so that they didn't need man's authority to enable them to go forth at all, and therefore letting on their hands was not the ordination of God.
Often times we.
We said goodbye to her brother.
And he is going to go forth on an heir to the Lord. What is gone for a few weeks visiting the Saints are going forward to get the gospel out.
Well, we may take our hand and put him on the shoulder.
As we sometimes do, give the pat in the back and say, well the Lord bless you, we will remember you before the Lord as you go forth, and we we show by that action.
That we are in fellowship with Him and not work for the Lord? Well, we're not. The meaning of these verses along that line.
I agree thoroughly with what you say about the fun.
I would see nothing wrong in it if you brothers, this is our brother Smith starting out on this trip and he's told us about. I haven't seen nothing wrong.
His brothers getting together with him privately and putting their hands on him. Not that he was he conferring anything, but just as a gesture of identification with him and his little mission for Christ. So I'm not advocating anything. I'm just telling you that I can see nothing inconsistent.
I had to turn my knees before an audience. I condone my knees on a large Bible, a big harmony Bible affair, you know, and three or four eminent ministers, titles had their degrees and so on. Men of many years of Christian ministry and really a man of God too. They stood around me and they flipped their hands on top of my head.
I sometimes speak as I was putting the empty hands in my empty head.
And they, they confared upon me.
I kind of an authorization or give me their fellowship and and what did it praying over me in the presence of that audience. I gave the impression before the audience that they were comparing upon me the privilege of going forth to be a minister of the gospel life preached for years before that.
01:05:26
But that that wasn't the kind of.
When you want to find that, I believe the word depends to hear.
It might be helpful to some to observe that in the 14th chapter and verse 26 we see the end of this particular ministry.
For which the Holy Spirit had sent them forth.
14th of Act, 14th of Acts, verse 26.
And.
That sailed to Antioch.
From whence they had been recommended, to the grace of God for the work which they fulfilled for the period.
Special ministry and it had accomplished it. Now they returned from where they started.
That next question is nice to move around.
Go ahead, brother.
And when they were come and had gathered the assembly together, they rehearsed all that God had done with them in our verse. In Colossians, it ends up with the increase of God.
It was of God.
I wanted to hear very nice to his next 15 brother.
Before.
And being walked on their way by the church, they passed business.
To come back on the bottle and we would love if he forgot, right?
Do we get a principle here of coming back to home base because it's a good thing come back to home Bay? Yes, that's it.
And chapter 14.
Every servant of the Lord, regardless of what his gift is and not only serve the Lord, but every time God according to the doctor scripture has a local identity. There's no such thing as within passengers law anyone miss just loose on his own and scripted. Everyone is locally identified somewhere.
That's important Scripture principle.
01:10:06
Trying to evade that.
Position where any assembly would have the right to say if you kill them. But the scriptures all is wiser than we are, so let us ever remember that every brother and sister do.
Is scripturally identified somewhere?
The word of God, the word of God safeguard that very carefully.
That sends out the server, but it's good to see.
Scholarship, which is local assembly. We had a brother many years ago who took that stand in Montreal and he was told that the trouble is with you. You want to be superior to all and subject to none. Because if there's a matter that comes up in the pathways of one who seeks to serve the Lord, it's his local assembly are the ones that should be taken up with. And so if the Lord directs the servant into the path of faith.
Service.
Sees his direction from the Lord, but he shouldn't go out with the full fellowship of his brethren. He hasn't got that fellowship. He should wait until he does get it.
That's what I want to say, that and the Lord stands a servant. The Lord is the mixed of his assembly. The Spirit of God dwells in the hearts of each one of the redeemed and the assembly to guide and drag them. And as the Lord sends forth a servant, he will live upon the hearts of the veterans to accept the Lord's decision in regard to that service.
And.
A person that a servant, the Lord can never say rightfully.
Well, the Lord has sent me what my brethren don't want me to go.
Because as the Lord sends, the Lord will arrange it. The Lord will work in the hearts of the of His dear people.
Showing them that this is my servant and I'm sending a form. Now you command them and you encourage him to go. And I believe that's how the Lord would work, isn't it?
I believe that.
Do I have to have a fellowship with my president to go out?
What answer? No, you don't have to have the fellowship to be ready to go for it.
But we would warn you faithfully that it can go out without it. You're talking sorrow.
I believe once I feel free to give that sort of cash, it is commendable for.
You should do it, and he shouldn't go out without no liquor in which they have set.
Never their decision may be.
01:15:21
100% willingness.
As they suggest.
What are you waiting for?
Around the infantilated in all friends coming to.
Of course it's somehow.
I don't like this being held back.
And spirit, he never had the same kind of happy fellowship, but he enjoyed today.
Two simple brothers. We think it'd be a good thing to prove yourself at home before you seek to go and finish it to those elsewhere.
What are the rudiments of the world, Brother Brown?
Why are they called rudiments of the world?
Kindergarten.
That's what really needs to be very marginal. Marginal rigging and elements. Yeah, no.
Well, ceremony.
We got the sack. Love it.
And then it gets a little more holy and you say don't taste it.
And then you say don't handle it.
Where does all that?
Of buildings and anything in the building.
It's all the rudiments of the world.
All the elements, doctrines of men, there isn't any such thing on the face of the earth is the secret Britain or a sacrifice.
No or a holy bill isn't really good everything more than one really longer, but not that's how that's how attributable to the world pronounced and garbage metal make. So let's keep.
01:20:12
Completely away from Mr. Potter told the story.
Will remember to know.
A lot of brother up in Michigan. I think it was Michigan.
Or Wisconsin? Wisconsin. Thank you.
Baby, you're the brother to help.
Story How about a brother? What's your.
Little louder please. It was in connection with the spread of the Mars table with brother Potter went up there.
A place where they broke bread in this brothers home. He had been in the Roman church and I suppose there was.
Some kind of holiness to that bread that was on the table of which they thought so in remembrance of the Lord. And he had a, a closet there right where he had put that bread after the breaking the bread. And Mr. Potter was amazed.
See a whole lot of that bread in there stored away and he asked him about.
Where is your brother, Father? I don't know what to do with this.
He's not that holy bread.
What we learned from the 4th of.
The nations that.
The mall is.
Sometimes are the rudiments of the world and also that even idols come under the rudiment of the world.
What if we have the law in the?
Bird, birds and idols in the ninth verse.
That's definitely the law ended in the third version. So we when we were in where we were in the bottom of the agenda, the elements of the world.
Involve a huge and then in the eighth verse I'll be at the wind then when you do not talk and get service under them, which were by nature and no law that's behind those but now after you can have local water rather known of God. I'll turn it again in the weekend beggarly elements.
As if it were just as bad, as if they turned backside.
When we were using the neighborhood house.
Get some of the furniture.
And the big there we have to go to the church. But the best challenge is there's no to take off your high hat. Don't you take off your hat when you're in the House of God?
He thought there was something to see about that building. We shouldn't walk through there. Nothing at all.
But in Christianity, all that is done away.
Absolutely.
Nothing of that sanctity to the external left in your family or taking them off the Ridge of the Street car in Montreal. A Canadian barrel.
Have a similar experience with food but writing the speed car in Montreal years ago.
I'm going along. Suddenly I saw every man, practically every man in the car took off his hat on again.
Passing a Roman Catholic building, church building so-called at each time they passed that and a sick car off off when the hat reverence and respect for that building of stone and mortar. That's the principle.
It's reward against that kind of a thing.
Our deliverance from all that thing is the back system says ye are dead from Christ.
So we're dead. We're dead to the world. We're dead to ordinances.
So it doesn't going on with some human system and it's set up, but where belong to a new creation with Christ now with my head and glory and go back and take up those things.
01:25:14
That we have died from under.
The very fast horrible that's why they're impossible to breathe there and say Galatians each other. Patrick Patrick from was bidding about.
We're really going back to their healing them again. They didn't realize it was by going under the back of the law.
Taking up the the law that were really that was the elements of the world because the law was suited to man in the place and in taking up the law while they were just taking another rule right back to their old Steven customs and waves because it even done the elements the elements of the world while so are religious systems, but it's Judaism is another.
As another system of that which belongs to the world. But we are dead. We have died out from under the whole thing. Now it's to live in Newnham spirit.
Going on with the rules in the fall. What word about the last verse?
Which things that we need to show wisdom and will, worship and humility.
The flexing of the body started in the honor, what more to the satisfying of the flag that is all of this fully called scientific of things and flavors persons.
What's the issue of it all? Why it does that side of the place, man's religious place? It has a very biased appearance, a show of wisdom and will worship and humility. But basically, basically it's to satisfy religious place in me. I took off my hat when I passed the building. Well, that satisfies the display.
And yet the whole thing is condensed in the word of God.
Oh, how merciful and blessed to be free by the words of all this kind of thing and to realize that Christ is all Christ is all. What's the meaning of the observe things like the body of them as that is it. Mr. Brown, don't you think that we should guard against that thing coming in to the Lord's table connections with.
The receptacle.
With the red and the wider place I have noticed in some places.
Silver and expensive, that kind it seems to contract. It can keep it as simple as it has been given to us. How blessed it would be.
We see #174 one.
