Where was your humility and simplicity?


Ps. Alexis Fernando Jimenez identified its early simplicity, like that of many. A young newcomer to the church, shows interest in the things of God and in their constant dialogue with its leaders expressed a desire to serve in the work. Never say no when it came to doing something for the proclamation of the gospel. Even lost track of who spent Saturday and Sunday handing out leaflets with the message of the Good News. - Meeting at Hugo Armando a believer who must promote leadership, once said the pastor with the deacons. He was assigned to the Sunday School, then president of the youth and then as manager of the hujieres service. At this point, the minister in charge again suggested: - I think it was time to send him to study the Bible Seminary -. They financed his career for five years. During that time did not lose the simplicity. Showed good will in all matters entrusted to him. It was the first to reach the temple and the last to leave. The problem began when, completed his theological training, was ordained and expressed a definite change in his behavior. He became a tyrant, he believed that everyone should revere just arrived at the headquarters of the church, lost no opportunity to assert his title, came to believe that was more spiritual than others and criticizing their superiors in the name ...

What leads someone who started a gradual but sustained growth, to lose sight of the simplicity and humility that should identify a servant of Jesus Christ? No doubt part with the Master's hand. He is the owner of the work, our superior, that we represent. I've never seen any product seller saying proudly: "What good salesman I am!" On the contrary, its purpose is to promote one item that sells and highlight the company that produces it. He did not promote himself, because he works for someone. Just you and me: Jesus Christ and serve Him to whom we exalt. Humility and simplicity: the early life of Matthew's gospel in chapter 21 from verse 33 to 16, relates the parable that Jesus shared with his disciples, the Pharisees and chief priests. He spoke of farmers who, just be your Lord, make all kinds of arbitrariness and abuse. "Therefore I tell you that the kingdom of God will be taken from you and given to a nation bringing forth the fruits thereof. And whosoever shall fall on this stone shall be broken: but on whomsoever it shall fall, will crumble" (verse 44 ).

Let the Christian leadership allows it to grow, holding the hand of Christ, and do not open the door for pride and the pride to take their heart for his position in the congregation ... Something that has yet ... I can not conclude this study without recommending something that is essential for their existence. Receive Jesus into your heart as the sole and sufficient Savior. It is extremely simple. Just to tell you right now, where is: "Lord Jesus, thank you for the sacrifice on the cross, which forgave all my sins of the past and I opened the door to a new life. Make me the person You want me to be. I receive you in my heart today as the only and sufficient Savior. Amen? Now that made the decision, for which incidentally I congratulate you, I have three final recommendations for you: First, talk to God daily through prayer. Tell her how you feel. Share you dreams and expectations. I can assure you that everything will be different. Second, read the Bible, in which you will learn dynamic principles that will help in the process of personal and spiritual growth, and the third and last, beginning to gather in a Christian church.

I can assure you that being with fellow believers, will help you live to Christ. If you have any questions, do not forget to write now pastorfernandoalexis@hotmail.com © Ps. Alexis Fernando Jimenez - Contact (0057) 317-4913705
