Would you miss it?

If I did not write this blog, would you miss it? If so send me a message and let me know.


2 Corinthians 10


1. Appropriate weapons of warfare (1-6)
    Our weapons are not fleshly or carnal, not of this world or our own strength, but they are mighty in God. These Godly weapons pull down strong holds, they cast down ungodly arguments and anything that exalts itself above God, forcing them to obey God.

2. Further defense of ministry (7-18)

2 Corinthians 11


1. Paul’s concern about them being misguided by false ministers (1-4, 12-15)
    False teachers have always been around. Funny thing is that they are sometimes hard to spot because they disguise themselves as the good guys, just like the devil does. There are only two really sound test of whether some one is a true or false teacher.
    1. Most importantly, how does what they teach line up with the word of God. Be ware of teachers who teach for an hour and have 5 minutes worth of scripture. Be ware of a teacher who jumps from scripture to scripture and uses bits and pieces to make their points. The true teacher will be able to take the word of God, leave it in it's context, and teach you what it is saying. By the way this is another critical reason for you to be on the journey. You must be in God's word faithfully. If you are saturating yourself with the word you will be able to spot a false teacher, but if you are just playing around with God's word, they will deceive you.
    2. Watch their life. None of us are perfect, but usually the false teacher will begin to display consistent tendencies that obviously do not line up with God's word.

2. His commitment to not take money from them (5-11)

3. Further defense (16-33)
