Chapter 3 - Reprove Rebuke And Exhort

THE WORD OF FAITH Podcast

The world we live in today is not like before. The world has transitioned from a theonormous culture to an autonomous culture. A theonormous culture is where man looks up to God in all his efforts. Where we all believe in God’s law in the form of how our conscience dictates wrong or right. Autonomous culture is where every person lives in his/her own world, where each lives by his own laws.. As such, right or wrong has become a matter of individual interpretation. This is a deception of the devil. The clear lines between good and evil, right and wrong are getting diffused. Many Christians have therefore failed to speak into others’ lives to bring correction and instructions in righteousness. But the word of God remains absolutely true for all. Paul by the Spirit is charging us today to live beyond the autonomous culture of the time and reprove, rebuke and exhalt others with all long-suffering and patience. Some people are on the path of false doctrine. Those need to be reproved or convince. Paul often would enter the synagogue to convince the Jews that Jesus is the promised Messiah. Some believed and others did not. By convincing some he saved them. Others are on the path of destruction. Those rebuke with all long-suffering. Don't stop till they come to their senses. It won't be comfortable to them but it will be beneficial to them. Others are in a strait, losing faith. Let's make it our business to encourage those who are growing weak in the faith. In so doing we will save many for the kingdom. There’s nothing as beautiful as spending your life to save others. Then can we say, "we have fought a good fight". Precious One, let us prioritize others' lives going forward. For greater love has no man than this. That a man will lay down his life for his brethren. This message will bless you more.
