We are all in different levels of faith and understanding.

Pastor is JESUS
1 PETER 2:25:
For “you were like sheep going astray,” but now you have returned to the Shepherd and Overseer of your souls.

Prophets there are many, but I am just a messenger/friend of CHRIST as said in:

JOHN 15:15
15 I no longer call you servants, because a servant does not know his master’s business. Instead, I have called you friends, for everything that I learned from my Father I have made known to you.

All believers are ministers/messengers as it’s their duty to spread the WORD to others. Whether to one or many, we are all ministering in words or actions.

Matthew 18:15-17 is just a process JESUS says for us to follow, so, as a believer, I follow. When followed, it always works; when followed.

As far as the posting in a blog instead of this religious category?? The administrator came on here already and said that I was doing nothing wrong, and my posts were fine. That ended a debate people were trying to start with me and others about not liking the fact I am posting passages.

On that note, others came on and said to the people complaining to realize that if they dont like something, then just pass it by. Which is sound advice.

Honestly, there are many posts I see here that I am not into, but I just leave people to what they want to do. If you are not into the passages or the way in which the post is arranged, then you have a choice to move on to other posts or stay commenting on the post; it’s your choice. No human can please or satisfy everyone, as we are reminded in

PROVERBS 27:20:
20 Hell and Destruction are never full;
So the eyes of man are never satisfied.

I actually dont mind the responses/replies; definitely dont mind. I like conversation. Some are great, some are insulting, some are just people trying to cause problems, some are inspiring, and so on....whatever they are they are things to learn from in some way.

You perceive very wrongly about me, but only GOD knows an individual fully; so it’s expected. From reading responses and replies, people can only assume what a person is about. Assumptions are dangerous, because they are not facts, they are usually “fictitious facts “ of someone’s imaginations that fill spaces of what they dont understand about something or someone.

As I said before you can continue the discussion here or some where else. There is no where I said I wouldnt like to receive what you were thinking or saying. Never said I wouldnt answer questions or read what you are saying. I just said the process in which I would answer and discuss ( in obedience to JESUS CHRIST).

Please read carefully my responses and what I am saying on this matter, so that you dont assume and say things that I constantly dont think or say. It saves time and illeviates the need for apologies ( as you said an apology before when realizing you said something I did not say).

As far as a “ church” I am starting? Strange to hear that one, because in that case everyone here on this site and others is trying to start some kind of a church or trying to get people to join some kind of denomination. I haven’t promoted a church building I am a part of, haven’t glorified any denominations or put down any, havent’ said one church is better to go to than another, havent’ put down any other religions, and havent given places of references to contact me more than anyone else has which is FREEREPUBLIC mail.

Because everyone here has a side and an understanding they advertise, then if I am starting a “ church”, then that would go for everyone else as well.

GOD just wakes me up daily to send out bible passages; that’s all. There is nothing else into it.

My friend, just because I am not doing things the way you want, there is no need for a conversation of labeling ( as you say I am tryng to be a pastor or prophet and start a church). But if this is the route you want to go in order to get to something, then, that’s fine. We all can learn things from any where as we learn in:

1 CORINTHIANS 1:25-31:

25 Because the foolishness of God is wiser than men, and the weakness of God is stronger than men.

26 For you see your calling, brethren, that not many wise according to the flesh, not many mighty, not many noble, are called.

27 But God has chosen the foolish things of the world to put to shame the wise, and God has chosen the weak things of the world to put to shame the things which are mighty;

28 and the base things of the world and the things which are despised God has chosen, and the things which are not, to bring to nothing the things that are,

29 that no flesh should glory in His presence.

30 But of Him you are in Christ Jesus, who became for us wisdom from God—and righteousness and sanctification and redemption—

31 that, as it is written, “He who glories, let him glory in the Lord.”

So, we can learn from anything, but, I pray this does not continue in this manner, because GOD is the only one to be praised.

love to you and all people in Jesus holy and precious name who lives and reigns forever and ever. Amen.

GOD BLESS US ALL,
