Good morning and Marvelous Monday. Brand new week. Brand new attitude. The past is the past. The future is unlimited. As we continue in the month of Renew In February based on Psalms 51:10-13, Isaiah 40:28-31 and Ephesians 4:20-24 each month I do one teaching that is different from the theme of the month. It was slow this Saturday so I decided to watch one of my favorite shows that I had not seen in a long time called the First 48. This show deals with homicide investigations from the time it is first called in to sometimes a subsequent arrest. In watching this show there are many elements in play such as police work, witnesses being sought and finally suspects being brought in for questioning. Many of the so called witnesses are telling things of what they heard some one else but not seen for themselves. When this happens and there is no other evidence proving otherwise the suspect is set free. We as a people of God are saying we are doing the work of the Lord but most times it's just Hearsay. No Evidence of That.
As I begin this teaching I want to define the key word in this teaching and that is hearsay. I go to my source of definitions and that is dictionary.com. The word hearsay means as follows; unverified,
unofficial information and not part of direct knowledge. We as people of God say we our hearts are with God but it seems to be unverified. We as the people of God say we have the mind to go spread the Word of God it seems to be unofficial information. And we say that our bodies of Christ are doing the work of the Lord but there is no direct knowledge of that. Hearsay. No Evidence of That.
As we get in the Word of God for the teaching of No Evidence of That I begin in 1st Samuel 16:6-7. In these verses Samuel is looking for the replacement for Saul as instructed to him by God. He sees
the outward appearance but God looks at the heart. We as a people of God get so caught up in ours or others outward appearance our works become unverified. Hearsay. No Evidence of That.
As I continue to with this teaching of No Evidence of That I go back to the Word of God and to John 18:15-18. In these verses it tells of how Peter had the mind to deny that he knew Christ even after
being a witness to all the things that Jesus had done. We as the people of God continue to deny the existence of Christ in our entire lives and we then become unofficial information by denying him total access. Hearsay. No Evidence of That.
In coming to end of the Biblical portion of this teaching of No Evidence of That I go to Revelations 2:4-5. In these verses Jesus is talking to the church of Ephesus about how they have forgotten their
works. It seems that the body of Christ is doing is everything but saving the lost souls of the world as we seem to have no part of knowledge on how to do this.Hearsay. No Evidence of That.
In closing I have to look at my own heart to see that although I am teaching the Word of God thru this blog where is my heart to teach those who live across the street from me, Although my mind is on doing the work of the Lord daily and be an example at times in my relationships I have caused chaos and confusion. Although I am part of a body of Christ what I am actually doing to help them save more souls. I am part of the unverified information. I am am part of the unofficial information. I am part of the no knowledge of. I am Hearsay. No Evidence of That. And when it is time to go to heaven I will be denied entry because I was not convicted here on earth. I give God all the glory and honor for this teaching. Please join me Saturday for a teaching called Renewed Day by Day. Have a great week all.
Good morning and Happy Monday. Brand new week. Brand new attitude. The past is the past. The future is unlimited. This past month I was riding with my friend Angela Francis. On this particular day she had to go get her hair done and her friend Roxanne' shop. I had done this numerous times in the past so when I was getting ready to leave I told Angela I was going to the forest preserve to sit and wait as she got her hair done. At the forest preserve I would be able to do two things while I was there. I would be able to think of ideas for my blog, my radio show and my daily postings on Facebook. When you attempt to write you sometimes get writer's block and need to get to a different atmosphere ( Hmmm Writer's Block may be a blog soon LOL ). The other reason I wanted to go to the forest preserve is because it was hot that day and I needed some shade. So as I approached the forest preserve I put on my left turn signal and waited for traffic coming southbound to clear. After
Good morning and Happy Monday. Brand new week. Brand new attitude. The past is the past. The future is unlimited. Growing up we used to love to take pictures. Maybe not myself because I had a self confidence problem, but everywhere you went there was someone taking pictures. In grammar school we took pictures every week. In high school we took them every year. At church we took pictures. In the club we took pictures as a group to show we all went to a party. Most of the pictures we took were with a Polaroid camera which had great quality then. But if you wanted the best pictures you wanted the photographer to take your pictures. This was one of the coolest professions back then because all the ladies who wanted to be models or actresses had to go to the photographer to get that photo to take to the different agencies to show how they look. So in order to get the best quality the photographer had to go someplace where he could get the best results. It was his Dark Room. This is the na
Good morning and Happy Friday. The summer is now beginning and the weather is now reaching its highest temperatures. It has reached a high point of 90's so far in the Chicagoland area and it appears to be nothing in sight to relieve us of these conditions that are almost drought like. As the summer gets ready to start in earnest next week we anticipate the warmest temps of the year after a winter that saw a little snow but the hawk, ( that's what we call the wind in the CHI ) was in full effect. But the sun has been out daily and we need a little moisture in our lives. We expect things to get wet in order for us to not only cool off but to wash away some things and bring a freshness of new things in our lives. The hotness of the weather coincides with the hotness in our lives. We need things to cool off a little bit but need some things to come down so we can enjoy the things in our lives that is promised to us as Christians. We are faithful and trusting in his Word. So as we
Enjoyed Fred!
