...it should now be clear that the commission to the eleven cannot be carried out
today—and that no one is carrying it out. God Has Rendered this impossible...

...He said to all of His disciples: “Sell that ye have and give alms” (Luke 12:33),
and bade them forbear making provisions for the future (Vers. 22-31).

This command is clear enough. They understood and obeyed it. But we do not
and cannot obey it today. Indeed, if we did liquidate our assets and distribute
the proceeds to the poor; if we did forbear making provisions for the future,
we would be disobeying the Command of our Ascended LORD regarding this
very matter, for in I Timothy 5:8 the inspired apostle declares:


...the meaning of the whole passage is simple as ABC when we rightly divide
the Word Of Truth. Our LORD is simply telling His disciples that it is His Father’s
Good Pleasure to give them the kingdom, to place them in authority, and that
if they will “seek” it even now “all these things” (needed food and clothing) will
be amply provided for them. Thus He goes on: “Sell that ye have and give alms.”
It is as simple as that.

In any case, they did not, like many today, take lightly our LORD’s Words in
Matthew 7:24-27, but, filled with the Holy Spirit, immediately set out to obey
their commission to the letter. Unless we are prepared to do the same we had
better acknowledge that there has since been a change in dispensation...

29 “So don’t always think about what you will eat or what you will drink. Don’t worry about it. 30 That’s what all those people who don’t know God are always thinking about. But your Father knows that you need these things. 31 What you should be thinking about is God’s kingdom. Then he will give you all these other things you need.

Don’t Trust in Money
32 “Don’t fear, little flock. Your Father wants to share his kingdom with you. 33 Sell the things you have and give that money to those who need it. This is the only way you can keep your riches from being lost. You will be storing treasure in heaven that lasts forever. Thieves can’t steal that treasure, and moths can’t destroy it. 34 Your heart will be where your treasure is.

That is not an universal law, it was for a specific group at time.

Okay....I tink I need some context here. The Great commission not for us?

I understand signs and wonders being for the disciples and apostles time, being foundational and not needed for now.. but the commission definitely continues today.

I tink I'll check the article and get back to you

Hello sir.. I understand you are part of a Berean organization. But truly being a Berean.. are you really keeping things in their right context in the Bible?

From what I saw online.. the organization I think you are part of... they have the church starting at Pentecost.. which is downgrading the great works Jesus was doing with His disciples including the great commission, as the first NT church (yes.... small c!)

Anyhow.. I agree with you on OSAS and the gifts of the Spirit.. so no big deal.
