pastor-leaves-pentecostal-error
Ex-Pentecostal Pastor addresses: what is “speaking in tongues” according to the Bible?
Our FOUNDATION must be the Bible - the sure Word of God, not subjective experience. That which is Perfect is come. The Word regulates a proper use of tongues – always to be interpreted, only one person at a time, and no women were to speak. The modern tongues movement disobeys all this.
Pentecostals teach a FILLING – that to be “baptised with the Spirit” we must “speak with tongues”. The BIBLE teaches that " by one Spirit are we ALL baptised into one Body". Clearly all DO NOT speak with tongues - 1 Cor. 12:30. Of the 16 Bible references to "Spirit filling" tongues is mentioned only once.
What is our FOCUS? It is easy to focus on Experience, Extra-Biblical Revelation, or Signs and Wonders and Manifestations. Yet the Spirit’s work is to glorify Christ. Charismatics place an UNbiblical priority on tongues. Tongues are only mentioned in Mark, Acts, and 1 Corinthians. Acts only gives 3 instances of tongues.
Tongues are FOREIGN LANGUAGES. Acts 2 records that they are known languages and dialects. It wasn’t gibberish, like the babble of today’s “tongues”.
Tongues have a God given purpose – and a FULFILMENT. In Acts 2:4 tongues were unlearned, known languages which could be understood by Jews present. In Acts 10 they were a confirming sign of the Gospel message, showing the equality of Gentile believers with Jews, by faith. In Acts 19 tongues confirmed the truth of the message and that believers of every background are equal by faith.
Tongues was a SIGN - that God had brought the Spirit, and the Church was born: Gentiles and Jews together would be one body in Christ. The Spirit confirms this - to four distinct groups: Jewish believers (Acts 2), Samaritan believers (8:17), Gentile believers (10:45-46), and the disciples of John the Baptist (19: 1-6).
Tongues was specifically a sign to UNbelievers… As per 1 Corinthians 1:22, the Jews require a sign. It was a rebuke against unbelieving Jews. Tongues is symbolic of JUDGMENT - as at the Tower of Babel (Genesis 11:7).
Isaiah 28:11--"For with stammering lips and another TONGUE will he speak to this people." God’s sign was FULFILLED. In 1 Corinthians 14:21-22--"In the law it is written, With men of other TONGUES and other lips will I speak unto this people; and yet for all that will they not hear me, saith the Lord. Wherefore TONGUES are for a SIGN, not to them that believe, but to them that believe not..."
God rebuked unbelieving Israel. The foreign tongues of Pentecost was God's sign to Israel that they were rejected and the Gospel was now to go to the Gentiles in their tongues. God had set Israel aside because of their unbelief and had begun a new work with the Gentiles. The Sign was

church-matters
What's so important about belonging to the church? Why bother?
The church is God’s creation. God’s idea. His plan. God has made the church to carry out His purpose and His will. Matthew 16:18 …upon this rock I will build my church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it.
Church means congregation or assembly. It’s about being together, with other believers, participating together, in fellowship in our local church. God’s people are meant to be an active part of the church.
Let’s make church a priority in our personal and family schedules. Set your calendar activities around the church as the first consideration. Make the assembly count as your first consideration when planning your week. It’s more important that we assemble with other believers, as God commands us to, than pretty much anything else.
Assembling together with God’s people is more important than a birthday party or a sports event or a social event. More important than our own convenience or self-interest.
We should be there whenever we are physically able. And bring our family to every event that we possibly can.
The church is God’s way of doing stuff. It’s His design. God is accomplishing His work on earth today through His church, His own assembled people.
The church is important to God. He calls it the household of God, the body of Christ. Christ loved the church as His bride, and He gave Himself to redeem it.
Why should we love the church? We ought to love the Church because our Lord loved the Church. Ephesians 5:25 Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church, and gave himself for it.
The church is also a flock… 1 Peter 5:2 Feed the flock of God which is among you… We are meant to be together, as sheep in a flock. That’s where we can be fed together and be comforted together. There’s safety in the fold.
Church is where we study together and worship together. We get together to hear the preaching and teaching ministry. We should want to get to where the Word is being preached because that is God’s will. May God give us the desire for the Word. 1 Peter 2:2 As newborn babes, desire the sincere milk of the word, that ye may grow thereby.
Psalms 133:1-3 Behold, how good and how pleasant it is for brethren to dwell together in unity! Something special happens when we get together. We unite our faith together. We raise our prayers and praise together. It’s good for our soul. It’s a joy. It’s pleasant. There God promises blessing.
As believers we should make the church a top priority in our lives. God’s Word instructs us to be involved in the church assembly. Hebrews 10:25 Not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as the manner of some is; but exhorting one another: and so much the more, as ye see the day approaching.
Every believer is called to local church involvement. Be faithful.
The Bible mentions over 30 specific local churches. As Paul describes it: 1 Timothy 3:15 But if I tarry long, that thou mayest know how thou oughtest to behave thyself in the house of God, which is the church of the living God, the pillar and ground of the truth.
The church is where believers are to utilise their God-given spiritual gifts.
We’re a community. We are meant to be together. Acts 2:44 And all that believed were together, and had all things common.
There are close to 60 “one anothers” mentioned in the New Testament. Believers are to love one another (Romans 13:8), comfort one another (1 Thessalonians 4:18), forgive one another (Ephesians 4:32), pray for one another (James 5:16).
As believers gather, we form a community that’s built on faith in Christ. We are meant to be this close-knit community. Let’s encourage one another, and strengthen each other.
The church is God’s outlet for outreach and evangelism. The church is where we launch out in evangelism, and global missions. Outreach in the New Testament was always through the church.
God designed His church to make disciples. God makes this happen through the teaching and accountability of a local church.
As we fellowship we can use our God-given gifts to serve others and lead more people to know the Lord.
The church is the Body of Christ - so it’s an extension of the Lord - He carries out His work - His will - through the church.
We are called to live in community with one another. We cannot fully live out our faith in isolation.
As we fellowship, we grow. We study. We receive Bible teaching, and can learn and grow in God's Word.
As we fellowship we develop relationships with other believers. We can encourage one another, hold one another accountable, and support one another.
Fellowship gives opportunities for prayer, and worship. As believers we work together in service. It helps build unity and purpose. As believers, we need each other.
Let us commit to being the church. A community where we can grow together and serve together - encouraging one another in our faith journey.

UNVEI
unveiling-the-dark-secrets-of-false-gods
The Bible says lots about false gods and idols. They are demonic. Deuteronomy 32:17 They sacrificed unto devils, not to God; to gods whom they knew not, to new gods that came newly up, whom your fathers feared not.
God's Word warns of false gods. Moses confronted Pharaoh and stood up to the false religionists. Ancient Egypt had over 40 false gods and goddesses. The Ten Plagues of God against Egypt were humiliations of ten specific Egyptian gods.
It seems many are still bowing their knee to Baal. To false gods.
BAAL is one of the prominent false gods in the Bible; mentioned over 150 times. Baal was worshipped by the Canaanites, and also called Bel, the chief god of the city of Babylon. He was associated with power, authority, and fertility. In modern culture we can see what is alike to Baal in the world of media and entertainment – in our world’s immoral ways and sensual gratification. Baal was also associated with ASHTORETH. She was worshipped as Ishtar in Babylon, Astarte or Aphrodite in Greece, and Venus in Rome. She was the goddess of love, war, and sexuality. Her name means “the star” or “the queen of heaven”. The Catholic Church calls Mary the Queen of Heaven. Elijah confronted the prophets of Baal at the showdown on Mount Carmel.
It’s interesting that world leaders everywhere have been erecting memorials to the temple of Baal. It’s a significant sign.
Temple priests would place children and babies into the idol’s outstretched arms, who would then roll into the blazing fire as human sacrifices. Loud drumbeats would drown out the screams. Baal is a destructive force against the people of God – the lord of the flies, the god of dung, a symbol of satan himself.
The Bible foretells the coming age of the antichrist, and great apostasy, and hatred against the people of God. A time of immorality. Could it be that powerful business and political leaders in the world today are Luciferian – Satan worshippers?
The Israelites created the golden calf of Moloch or Baal as an idol to worship and sacrifice their children, as they turned away from Moses and God to serve the gods of Egypt. It’s interesting that there’s an obsession with ancient Baal today. The spirit of Baal is still at work. People still defy God and worship falsehood. God condemns the worship of false gods.
What was Baal known for? Immorality. We see an explosion of that in our own day. Child Sacrifice: There are about 73 million abortions every year. The blood of innocents continues to flow. Weather: The idea of global warming/climate change is meant to create fear so people obsess about the future. For Christians, the Bible is clear about God’s plan for the earth and what will transpire. Nowadays climate change is become a virtual religion.
The various false gods of our world today are engineered by satan. It’s sad to see many swept along by false philosophies.
MOLECH was the god of the Ammonites. He was associated with divination, with fire and child sacrifice. Molech was associated with brutality and wealth. The Vatican has decided to approve a statue of Moloch or Baal, the ancient god of child sacrifice, to be put on display near the Colosseum in Rome.
DAGON was another false god - worshipped by the Philistines. This false god was often depicted as a half-man, half-fish figure. It’s interesting how the Popes of Rome and their bishops wear fish hats. Just like the priests of Dagon of old.
God will bring the false gods down. The Philistines placed the captured Ark of the Covenant in the temple of Dagon, only to find the idol fallen face down before the Ark the next morning (1 Samuel 5:3).
In contemporary society, our modern-day Dagon comes in the form of consumerism and the pursuit of material possessions. Many people have an all consuming desire for material wealth and possessions.
Our Lord warns of serving the false god of Mammon… Matthew 6:24 No man can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon.
It seems like the modern versions of false gods are many and varied. False gods are really God-substitutes. They continue to destroy people today. In Australia they still honour the false god of the rainbow serpent and Aboriginal dreamtime. We must renounce all false gods.
These days we see people captive to addiction to substances, vices, and self-destructive behaviours. People fall prey to destructive habits. Their false gods could be substance abuse, gambling, or other harmful addictions. They are being destroyed as far as their physical, emotional, and spiritual well-being.
Our only hope is the exclusive worship of the one true God.
We should not be building memorials to Baal, or accommodating false gods in our lives. Like Asa, we should be tearing them down. 2 Chronicles 14:2-3 ...he took away the altars of the strange gods, and the high places, and brake down the images, and cut down the groves.

PRAIS
praise-ye-the-lord
How to praise God - from Psalm 150.
Praise speaks of our joyful delight. Our word comes from the Latin, meaning ‘to prize’. We praise what we value. What we honour. Our Lord is worthy of honour and glory. We are created to praise and glorify Him! Isa.43:7 God says, "For I have created him for my glory." It’s our highest purpose.
Psalm 150 captures praise and what it’s all about.
WHERE should we praise God? Psalms 150:1-6 Praise ye the LORD. Praise God in his sanctuary: praise him in the firmament of his power. Praise Him everywhere. In the sanctuary – where God’s people gather. Praise him in the firmament of his power. Heaven is a place of praise. There is actually NO place we should NOT proclaim His praise!
Let praise fill your everyday life. As David says, Psalm 9:1-2 I will praise thee, O LORD, with my whole heart…
WHEN should we praise the Lord? Psalms 113:2-3 Blessed be the name of the LORD from this time forth and for evermore. 3 From the rising of the sun unto the going down of the same the LORD'S name is to be praised. Praise Him, every waking moment! Make praise your way of life.
Psalms 34:1 I will bless the LORD at all times: his praise shall continually be in my mouth… 3 O magnify the LORD with me, and let us exalt his name together.
It’s always the right time to praise the Lord. Psalms 146:2 While I live will I praise the LORD: I will sing praises unto my God while I have any being.
Psalm 150 reads on: 2 Praise him for his mighty acts: praise him according to his excellent greatness. WHY should we praise God? For what He does. For His mighty acts. For the great things He has done.
The greatest work of God is our salvation. Praise Him for his acts:
His work of creation.
His deliverance of Noah at the flood.
He saved Lot from Sodom.
He set His people free from Egypt.
He gave them manna from heaven and water from the rock.
He saved those who looked upon the lifted up serpent of brass.
The walls of Jericho fell at God’s command.
Praise Him for the wonder of the incarnation and the provision of Calvary, and the glorious resurrection.
If you thank God after the fact, that’s gratitude. If you thank God before it happens, that’s faith.
God’s will is that we worship Him.
Praise brings victory – as in the story of Jehoshaphat. God miraculously defeated the enemy because of the people’s obedience to praise Him. Praise is first in the battle. As they began to sing and to praise, the invading enemy was defeated 2 Chron. 20:22. Praise defeats the enemy.
Give praise for the works of God – and give praise also for His character. For WHO He is. Praise God for His excellent greatness.
HOW should we praise God? With everything we have.
3 Praise him with the sound of the trumpet: praise him with the psaltery and harp.
4 Praise him with the timbrel and dance: praise him with stringed instruments and organs.
5 Praise him upon the loud cymbals: praise him upon the high sounding cymbals.
There’s a crescendo of praise here. Praise Him, with the whole orchestra. It’s like God wants His church to be. It’s spontaneous. It’s joyful. Unreserved. Enthusiastic. It’s loud. It’s energetic. Powerful.
There is joy here. We enjoy God. Praise is joyful. Our praise helps us overcome our spiritual apathy and lukewarmness. As David said: Psalms 122:1 I was glad when they said unto me, Let us go into the house of the LORD.
David was overwhelmed with praise. Praise Him without reservation. May we give Him our highest praise.
WHO should praise God? Every living thing. 6 Let every thing that hath breath praise the LORD. Praise ye the LORD.
As long as you are breathing you should be praising the Lord. “God is to be praised everywhere we are, because of everything He is and with everything we have by everyone and everything.”
God is looking for worshippers. The only qualification for praising God is that you breathe.
Every third word in this psalm is a command to praise God! God has purposed that creation will honour Him – It’s His purpose for us. Revelation 4:11 Thou art worthy, O Lord, to receive glory and honour and power: for thou hast created all things, and for thy pleasure they are and were created.
Make praise your priority. Determine to praise. Make it deliberate. Put on the garment of praise. Isaiah 61:3 …the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness… Be clothed with praise.
There’s a melody that’s heart deep. Ephesians 5:18-19 …Speaking to yourselves in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody in your heart to the Lord.
Praise is something truly beautiful. Psalm 33:1 Rejoice in the LORD, O ye righteous: for praise is comely for the upright. There is therapy in praise. It will bless your soul.
Praise ye the Lord!

A BUS
a-business-man's-mistake
He was wealthy. Prosperous. It seemed like he had everything going so well. The man was successful in business. This man was sensible with his money. He was careful about the future. He was a smart investor. He was sharp with how he used his land and his investments well. His land was very productive. He had run out of places to store his grain.
Money is not the root of all evil. The LOVE of money is. Riches can be useful if used wisely. But the man in Luke 12 seemed only concerned with the getting of wealth. It was his religion - his church.
"What shall I do?" he cries out! But… he left God out. His plans didn’t include God. He didn’t say, "Lord what wilt THOU have me to do?" He was directing his life without God. His life was without purpose because it was without GOD.
We need to seek to know and do God's will. "Seek ye the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things shall be added unto you".
The man was self-centered - he was all caught up with himself.
He considered his things HIS OWN: My fruits, my barn, my goods, even my soul. We see a number of awful mistakes that he made…
He was only concerned with stowing money away. He didn’t ask how to serve God with the use of his money.
He was a big shot, with big plans. He was interested in tearing down and building new and bigger barns, to find how he could store all his grain. He looked like he had it made.
He made big plans. He wanted to be prepared for the future. BUT - he failed to plan and prepare for eternity.
The man seems to think that his riches will be a comfort to him when he has hoarded them. But they became only a care and a burden. His love and longing for peace and comfort, joy, security, satisfaction, and fulfilment was actually failing - because he had left out the fundamental ingredient - God.
Money shouldn’t be our aim in life. Otherwise it owns us - instead of us owning it. His only goal in life was to sit back, take life easy, eat, drink, and be merry. He was a greedy man, living in a needy world.
The man takes little thought for God, who made and owned him. He seems to only think of his body and its needs, forgetting the needs of his soul.
The business man’s mistake was also that he thought he had plenty of time. He thought he had many years ahead of him. But he wasn’t going to see one more sunrise. He planned for time, but not eternity.
BUT GOD. God came and filled the barn-builder’s soul with dread. We see the man’s awful awakening.
THOU FOOL - a fool is a person who is mindless - senseless. He seemed so smart and prepared - but he was really foolish and unprepared.
One day, God shall require thy soul. Our God is a consuming Fire. He shall send those who reject Christ to Hell.
“Things” are Temporary. "We look not at things which are seen, . . . for things are temporal (temporary)" (II Cor. 4:18). Everything you buy will not last.
It is all right to have things, but realise God's ownership of all things and your responsibility to use things wisely. Do we give our things to God? Do we manage our time, talents and treasure for God?
He accumulated wealth, but does not use it wisely. He hoards his money and only plans to make more money.
Death is coming for you. Christ challenges us: "what does it profit a man to gain the whole world, and lose his soul?" The same God that gave us the breath we breathe, can come along and snatch that breath away.
1 Tim 6:17 Don't trust in: UNCERTAIN RICHES, but in the living God, who giveth us richly all things to enjoy. You can’t depend on riches.
The man longed for security - BUT he never found it. REAL security can only come from something that will always be there for you. God can provide for our needs. God gives us the security that money can never provide. He never changes. He will never leave us. He provides for us and protects us, both in this life and through all eternity.
The man longed for satisfaction. True satisfaction only comes from God. The Bible says, "Delight yourself in the Lord; and He will give you the desires of your heart" (Psalm 37:4,5).
The man longed for a life of ease and relaxation. Without an inward peace we cannot enjoy real rest. The Lord says, "Come to Me, all who are weary and heavy-laden, and I will give you rest. Take My yoke upon you, and learn from Me, for I am gentle and humble in heart; and you shall find rest for your souls. For My yoke is easy, and My load is light." (Matthew 11:28-30).
Are we prepared for when He comes to us, and says, THIS NIGHT thy soul is required?
Security, Satisfaction, and Rest is not found in chasing the almighty dollar, but in surrendering ourselves - giving our lives to the Saviour.

church-for-you-adelaide
Who are Church For You - and what's it all about?
Church For You is a Bible believing church which is in fellowship with other like-minded independent Baptist churches within Australia. The Church upholds Bible truth and declares the soul-saving Gospel of Christ.
Church For You is founded for the glory of God, as a Christ-centred, Bible-based ministry. It started in February 1999, with eight people at its first service at a school in Craigmore. We’ve been meeting at our present home in Elizabeth Park, South Australia, since October 2001.
The church has various outreach and fellowship opportunities. In all things our aim is to bring honour to the Lord Jesus Christ in sharing the Gospel with our community. There are ministries for families, men, women, youth, and children.
Church For You is committed to reaching the world by all scriptural means, and being a caring family of believers together. We present the Lord Jesus Christ and His wonderful saving Message. We love to preach the Good News of God's grace found in the precious pages of the Holy Bible, which is what leads us in faith and life. You can know personally this vital message for life of Christ’s wonderful work of salvation, by God's grace, through faith.
The church upholds orthodox Biblical doctrine. We uphold the authority of the Bible, as the inspired, inerrant, eternal Word of God. We believe in the one God, manifested in three persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. Christ is God manifest in the flesh - fully God and fully man. The Holy Spirit convicts of sin, righteousness and judgment. He regenerates men and sanctifies the believer for a holy life.
The local New Testament Church is an assembly of believers gathered together in worship, prayer, and fellowship. We are actively engaged in the proclamation of the Gospel. The church opposes worldliness and apostasy.
We believe in a blessed Heaven for the saved, and a dread Hell for the lost. Mankind has fallen into sin, and our only way for forgiveness and salvation is wholly of the grace of God through Jesus Christ's shed blood and substitutionary death, burial, and resurrection. Salvation is freely offered to all mankind. Believers are called with a holy calling - holiness is God's standard of living for His people. Christ's coming is the believer's sure hope. It is an incentive to holy living and faithful service, to be ready to meet Him when He comes.
Come and find a place of fellowship with God’s people!
We invite you to consider being a part of this local family of believers and serve our Lord together, and reach out, so that others also may come to know and trust the Lord.
