Hi Daniel,
My name is Keith and my dad goes to your fathers church in Port Charlotte. I have been in full time ministry for about 9 years and currently attend the Advanced Leadership and Pastoral school at Christ for the Nations in Dallas. I was at Firestorm when you and Reinhard were hear. I would love the chance to connect with you sometime. I heard that you were at the church on Sunday and many were very convicted and stirred for a deeper walk with the Lord. Awesome! God bless you and may the Lord do awesome things in 2010!

Keith

Cleanliness is next to godliness.

Actually, cleanliness and godliness don’t have much at all to do with each other.

What about…”cleanliness is next to godliness”….

Hearing people say, “Don’t judge me… Only God can judge me” when someone trys to point something out that isn’t right.

People using, “Well God’s not through with me yet” when they are making excuses for why they are sinning.

When people use 1 Corinthians 9:21-22 as an excuse to do what they want.

“Preach the gospel, use words when necessary” Although this phrase is intended to emphasize that you live the life more than you preach it, people (and many churches) often use it as an excuse not to share about Christ. The bible says in Romans 10:4, “How, then, can they call on the one they have not believed in? And how can they believe in the one of whom they have not heard? And how can they hear without someone preaching to them?” It is true that you should live the life… but you should also speak out…

The idea that “God wants you rich.” In the Bible it only mentions that you will not go hungry (Psalms 37:25, “I have been young, and now am old; Yet I have not seen the righteous forsaken, Nor his descendants begging bread.”) God is concerned with our lives here on earth but only as it relates to our spiritual life. (3 John 1:2, “Beloved, I pray that in all respects you may prosper and be in good health, just as your soul prospers.”)

Anywho… these are some of the ones that I could think of
