I haven't blogged in awhile, but now I am going to be blogging about some new things I have been thinking about. This one I have told a lot of people at our house church and at other house churches. It is simple.
Luke in Acts 1, mentions the things he wrote in his first book (book of Luke) which was about what Jesus went to do and teach. The way Jesus lived his life was divine. His divine order, according to Jon Courson, was that Jesus did things before he taught about it. He practiced before he preached. He encountered things before He talked about them. If we are to be a follower of Jesus we probably need to do the same. See Jesus didn't just talk about love, he was love. He loved God and the disciples before he said, "Love God and love others."If we tell people to love God and love others but yet we aren't acting in it first, then we might be considered heretics to some. We must be like shephards of the east, missionaries, forerunners, or witnesses where they are people who encounter before they taught. They then teach out of wisdom and revelation not just a knowledge and understanding of words on a page. The place we teach out of is where we meet with God and then teach what He gives us. Do not teach something you haven't talked to God about it. Commune with His spirit and teach from there just like Jesus. Romans 5:5- If you want to love with the Love of God then you have to meet with His spirit and know that it comes from Him. With God we can love. Let us be a people who don't just talk about love, but BE LOVE.
I am not saying we neglect teaching the gospel, but let's be it and then teach it. Be dependent upon Him, it's possible with Him
