What Can Be Better?

What Can Be Better?     March 22, 2013 - Romans 15 Return to Admenu Home         Dear  Saints,   Today we prayerfully, continue our Feast in Romans 15. How do we act toward the new convert or the immature Christian?  Approach them with love and never try to intimidate or put them on the spot.  Praising them in the public eye and gently correcting them in private.  We never try to use another’s weak action to make ourselves look good.  Treat all the members of the Church with honor and love; they are our brothers and sisters in Christ.  Sibling arguments are for the unsaved.   Being saved they already have a personal relationship with Jesus.  We have no need to preach to our brothers and sisters.  Carry the grace of Jesus to those that aren’t saved.  Like the apostle Paul make your purposed journeys so that the church will grow.   Make your requests to your brothers and sisters to be for their prayers.  “30 I appeal to you, brothers, by our Lord Jesus Christ and by the love of the Spirit, to strive together with me in your prayers to God on my behalf, 31 that I may be delivered from the unbelievers in Judea, and that my service for Jerusalem may be acceptable to the saints, 32 so that by God's will I may come to you with joy and be refreshed in your company. 33 May the God of peace be with you all. Amen.” Romans 15:30-33, English Standard Version (ESV).  Because there is no other name under heaven by which we are saved; so we carry our prayers to Jesus.  No man should try to get between Jesus and the believers.  Never pray to the dead, Jesus arose to be our advocate!  He overcame death so we can turn directly to him in prayer and forgiveness.   “15 No longer do I call you servants, for the servant does not know what his master is doing; but I have called you friends, for all that I have heard from my Father I have made known to you. 16 You did not choose me, but I chose you and appointed you that you should go and bear fruit and that your fruit should abide, so that whatever you ask the Father in my name, he may give it to you. 17 These things I command you, so that you will love one another.” Jeremiah 17:7-8 ESV.  Not only is Jesus our savior and advocate, he is our friend.   He gave us his Word and sealed us with the Holy Spirit.  What we read in God’s word the Holy Spirit will bring to our remembrance when we need it.  “But the Helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, he will teach you all things and bring to your remembrance all that I have said to you.” John 14:26 ESV.   Thank Jesus for his love; it doesn’t get better than eternity with our God.     The Feast     Fri, March 22, 2013, Romans 15, - “Directions how to behave towards the weak.
