#GodAppointsMinistry
“When we see the five different ministries here, the most important thing that we need to understand is a ministry that God appoints. This is not something that man appoints. Not an organization that appoints This is not something that you can buy with money. Even though you have recommendations, this is not how it is done. Even though you have talents, this is not something that you can do. Just because someone looks really handsome doesn't mean that we can make them a passer. Not something that is generational. It's not something that goes from one person to the other, a grandfather to father to children. This is a calling from Christ and it is something that Christ appoints. When God calls someone, God is the one who is going to equip that person.”

#UnstoppableGoodNews
“Yet, secondly, Jesus reassures them and three times tells them, do not fear or be not afraid. And he gives them the reasons why. First, there's there's no turning back Like water bursting forth from a dam, so will the good news they share. Jesus says that once was hidden will now be released into the world. All those things that were secret will now be known. What is done is done and you cannot back. Secondly, Jesus says that they should not fear those who can only torment the body and yet cannot touch the soul. Jesus has already warned them that they can expect physical punishment and torture, including prison and possibly even death that they must remember. That humans can only hurt their bodily self, but not their inner being. Instead, they should be in awe of god who controls both.”

“Because our faith is not built on because the bible told me so. Where are you going with this, preacher man? Right? Let me caution us. We believe the bible is a big deal. We believe in the inerrancy of God of the word of God, meaning it is without error. We believe it is divinely inspired. We believe that it is inspired word of God that helps teach us right from wrong, that helps train us in righteousness. We believe the Bible is a big deal. But our faith in Jesus coming back to life is not simply built on because the Bible told us so.”

#EveryBelieverHasAMinistry
“Every believer has a ministry. Misconception. We sometimes have a misconception about this. The ministry is only for maybe for some of the evangelists. Only for these people who are standing on this side of the stage. Can I tell you something? you please raise your hand if you have no calling, no ministry? Anybody? Please don't be scared. Don't fear. Just raise your hands if you feel like you have no calling, you have not been appointed for anything. not a tricky question. Don't be scared. Every person who was saved by Christ has a ministry. God has given certain Yes. Minis gifts to every believer. Everybody has a calling. Something that God has planned for you. A ministry for you.”

#GiveMoreThanYouReceive
“It's you sometimes we feel like church is almost like going to a restaurant. We Sometimes we put really good reviews. The worship was really not that great. Friendly sound back. Was a lot of noise in front, but nothing in the back. Then lights were gone sometimes? Place is really not clean? Oh, that advertisement for that restaurant was not as much as what we saw. something that believers need to say. More than what you received in church today, what were you able to give to others? This is what thought needs to be. God, today when I'm in church, what do you want me to do today?”

#PrivatePrepPublicProclaim
“How many of you can understand the calling that God has put in your life. Amen. Your private preparations are for public proclamations my If you feel separated today, tomorrow God is going to raise you up to stand for him. Amen. Amen. Hallelujah. Let's go forward. The head of the church is Christ. God is the one who appoints and calls each person in the church. God is able to use you if you have that calling and appointment. Each and every person has a calling. If that is the case, let's look at the fourth thing. There is a reason why God has called and appointed you. Amen. God has called to equip and not to entertain. Amen. God has called to equip you.”

#AllInForChrist
“We cannot say that we do not understand or that the missive is unclear. We cannot remain in the middle or lukewarm about our faith. In fact, the entire book of Matthew communicates about various characters who say yes and follow Jesus, including those disciples. And then those who say no and are left behind like the rich young ruler. Jesus tells his disciples that in all times, in thought, word, and deed, through our sermons of speech and of actions, they must proclaim Jesus before others. And yet sometimes this is easier said than done because even later in the gospel of Matthew, Peter himself denied Christ three times, ran away when asked in the courtyard of the high priest if he was a follower of Jesus.”

#ProclaimFaithAlways
“Jesus tells his disciples that in all times, in thought, word, and deed, through our sermons of speech and of actions, they must proclaim Jesus before others. And yet sometimes this is easier said than done because even later in the gospel of Matthew, Peter himself denied Christ three times, ran away when asked in the courtyard of the high priest if he was a follower of Jesus. Yet for others, denial is not an option. Stories abound of those who have stood up for their faith possibly ending losing even their life. Those in school shooting scenarios, missionaries around the world, simple men and women of faith who would ask if they believe in God, hold firm to their faith.”

#GodValuesYou
“``And thirdly, Jesus declares to his disciples, do not be afraid because god cares about all members of his family. He uses this illustration of the sparrows, those cheapest of the sacrificial animals that were sold primarily to the poor. To demonstrate that since god knows of those animals intimately, then how much more does god care for them who are made in his own image. They are of more value than any of the other created order. The next section of the text reminds us that human behavior ultimately matters. What is done or not done today in the name of the master has eternal consequences, and there will be no evasion of responsibility.”

“There is nothing you can do to convince me to die for a lie. Go to a public school and see how fast these kids turn on one another. No. No. No. It was him. It wasn't me. Don't punish me. Don't suspend me. I didn't do it. These kids would not die for a lie. They will not go down with the ship. And I don't know about you, I will not die for a lie. But somehow, someway, these disciples decided to burn the ships, to storm the beach, to say, I will die for this truth.”
