Subject: Avoiding paritality in soul care |
Bible Note: Dear mommapbs, At the risk of sounding flip, it appears your minister is more concerned with the 'edifice' of the church, than the 'edification'. I would have to refer your pastor to the Gospel According to John, chapter 3. Nicodemus was a wealthy Pharisee, yet his soul needed tending to(although he did not know it at the time). In fact, he was one of the first people Jesus ministered to, since Nicodemus was not poor in material things, but poor in spirit. That's how I see it, anyway. Do not despair. Take your problem to him directly. And even if he does not minister to your needs, we have a High Priest who has already walked out your solution. God bless!! He is exalted, the King is exalted on High!! 2nd Samuel 22 |
