JESUS THE CHRIST MINISTRIES

The full Counsel Newsletter- No7


 

NOR WAS THERE ANYONE AMONG THEM WHO LACKED…FOR ALL WHO WERE POSSESSORS OF LANDS OR HOUSES SOLD THEM AND BROUGHT THE PROCEEDS OF THE THINGS THAT WERE SOLD AND LAID THEM AT THE APOSTLES FEET AND THEY DISTRIBUTED TO EACH AS ANYONE HAD NEED. ....ACTS 4:34,35.....

THE TRUE CHRISTIAN...A SELFLESS PILGRIM/SERVANT!

Before us we have a list of just a couple of churches financial holdings. Without partiality I would like to share with you the living proof of one of JESUS CHRIST'S oracles...

IT IS WRITTEN…MY HOUSE SHALL BE CALLED A HOUSE OF PRAYER BUT YOU HAVE MADE IT A DEN OF THIEVES…MATHEW 21:13.

1. A.O.G. KUALA LUMPUR/MALAYSIA.
MEMBERS – 3,000.

*Cash on term deposit – AUD $7.5 Mil.

*Petty cash & buildings – AUD $7 Mil.

*At the last Evangelistic Outreach 7 members attended.

2. A.O.G. KUALA LUMPUR/MALAYSIA.
MEMBERS – 1,500.

*Cash in building fund – AUD $7 Mil.

3. LUTHERAN RENEWAL CHURCH IN KUALA LUMPUR/MALAYSIA.
MEMBERS – 1,000.

            *This is one of the largest church buildings in Kuala Lumpur.

            *The cost to build this particular structure was a mere $7 Mil, AUD.

4. THE METHODIST CHURCH IN KUALA LUMPUR/MALAYSIA.

(The minister who gave me these measurements is a member of our church) and has worked among the Muslims for years and has a fair understanding on whose under the hay stack fast asleep and whose out and about our Father’s business. The leader of this church told mister minister that they were building a new church and mister minister…said “Did you pray about this? Did you ask JESUS about this?”…his reply was “What do you mean?”  
And to top it off…the churches mentioned here all preach the prosperity gospel. Bringing in the money or bringing in the sheaves?? Which one?

  The only thing I can say is this

BUT WHOEVER HAS THIS WORLDS GOODS AND SEES HIS BROTHER IN NEED AND SHUTS UP HIS HEART FROM HIM, HOW DOES THE LOVE OF GOD ABIDE IN HIM…1 JOHN 3:17.

I could give you a list of church’s, ministries and ministers in need of finances, who don’t have their own building. One church I preached in of the Philippine mountains never even had a box guitar or enough food for their house.

What did the Apostles do with the money they received from the people?…they used it for those in need.

DID THEY BUILD A BUILDING OR A NEW HOUSE FOR THEMSELVES? DID THEY BUY A NEW CAR OR A BEACH HOUSE FOR THEIR HOLIDAYS? DID THEY BUY A ROLEX WATCH OR A $2,000 DRESS? DID THEY PUT THE MONEY ON THE STOCK EXCHANGE?… NO! THEY GAVE IT AWAY!

There is one who makes himself rich yet has nothing and one who makes himself poor and has great riches ...…PROVERBS 13:7, 2 PETER 2:3.
