praise GOD ,I.M WELL WORKING HARD FOR THE REWARD OF OUR LORD CHRIST JESUS IS SOON COMING - Chris Welch
Yes...but I hope He holds off enough for you to learn about Him living His life through you instead of doing works for Jesus...so I'll ask him not to come yet!!! LOL - James Mutuku
WE HAVE TO WORK MORE TO REACH MORE PEOPLE TO TELL THEM ABOUT HIS LOVE HE LEFT US TO DO THAT. - Wednesday
- Chris Welch
Yes. He never stopped the disciples from reaching out even while they were still learning. Sometimes it's the quickest way to learn. Here is the problem...it works like this. Unborn again people and young Christians live in the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil. They want rules.They want rabbis. At this stage they know nothing really of how the New Covenant works. In the New Covenant there are aren't really teachers any more, for each person from the least to the greatest know their Lord. But at this stage, even if they are born again,they may know about worshipping the Lord in the Holy Spirit, but outside of meetings they live from the self still...they don't know any different for the Word hasn't grown in them yet.
But the snag is this. African and English pastors quite like the praise. They quite like the symbiotic relationship of people hanging on their every word and paying them a tenth of their income. It's a wonderful life. Why would they spoil it by making the people get more new Covenant revelation so they go off and leave the pastor and tell others about the Lord. Neither English nor African pastors are going to like that , are they?
Actually, the first apostles would not have liked it either, so God gave them no choice and smashed up the first church in Jerusalem by the Romans...so they's HAVE to REPRODUCE!!! LOL. - Today

SURELY MANY PASTORS LIKE TO LOOK ON TENTHS AND FORGET ABOUT REACHING OUT FOR THE LOST, NOW WE SHOULD GO BACK AND DO THE WORK OF DISCIPLESHIP FOR THE GROWTH OF CHURCH OF CHRIST TO MAKE THE BODY OF CHRIST BECOME BIG,AND THAT IS WHAT CHRIST LEFT US TO DO. LET US PRAY FOR THE SAINTS NOW TO BE AWAKE FOR THE WORK. GOD BLESS YOU - Chris Welch
It's simpler than that. In Kenya you received the gospel that says if we don't believe in Jesus we shall all go to hell. So a person prays to ask for Jesus forgiveness and asks for Jesus to come into his life, which means now, whereas before he or she was one person, now they think they are two people/schizophrenics. And then the trouble starts. Pastors then tell their congregation with split personalities that they should try and behave better, read the Bible more,pray more and then they'll be OK.
But not one bit of that is the message of Jesus Christ. In fact, if you changed Jesus for Allah and the Bible for the Quran it's virually Muslim.
Jesus just said He'd come to give us Life.
The Life exposes the other stuff and shows us more about what the life of unbelief really is. When people learn how life works, which is what Jesus was really teaching, although at the same time He was also teaching them how to flow and minister in the Spirit as well....your pastor's job is already finished. You either have to get a new church, or change your church to look more like the ones in the Bible, which had everyone ministering and practicing the new life in the Spirit.
And this is the gospel. The real gospel actually works.
The reason the gospel is such hard work in Kenya and USA and UK is it contains a huge amount of just wrong teaching, so nobody matures and the work of the gospel can never be done.
Here's a test for you and your congregation. Now before I say the test, you should now know there are two types of knowledge.
Knowledge which is intellectual and we learn a lot of facts in school
And knowledge which changes our life from within...really it's spiritual knowledge and wisdom.
So here's the test on your congregation.
If a mature Christian is one who understands the whole of Romans by the spirit of wisdom and revelation....ie NOT JUST KNOWLEDGE
How many people in your own church understand Romans 1to 5?
Really get it? Get it so they can minister to other on it?
Now that is really infant Christianity, what John calls "Children " Christianity. It's a spiritual stage. You can be 70 years old but still learning Romans 3 to 5.
This is just guessing...I would think there are very few in your church that understand in the Spirit chapter 6 and 7. Norman Grubb the missionary spent decades of his life seeing and describing these. There are people in Kenyan churches that do not understand Acts 2 and the baptism in the Spirit. Because they have no experience of it, they will tell you about Acts 2 because it is the day the church was born....but you will know immediately that all their knowledge of Acts 2 is theoretical. They read it in a book. It means nothing.
And this is still the same with Romans 6 to 8.
All the Spiritfilled churches do Romans 3 to 5 and chapter 8, but they NEVER DO chapters 6 and 7 because it's just knowledge to them.
The whole RECKONING process from Romans 6 onwards is just as real an experience to us as the day we were baptised in the Spirit.
It means when we really go through those chapters in experience, we really start to enter Romans 8 in a permanent way...not just in meetings!!! And this is the gospel. The real gospel actually works.
The one preached in Kenya and UK and USA is about not going to hell when we die. The one Jesus preached was about having His LIFE today.
Then with Dennis Rhodes about Organising Bigger events
- Chris WelchToday I've been thinking organisation and discipline is somewhere in the mix. But it HAS to be operated without transgressing
Not by Might , nor by power but by My Spirit.
Someone wrote today that God can't do anything apart from us...we have to move...then He does. he's assigned the earth that way...so endless sitting around is just as much not Him as us rushing around madly by our own plans.
IT IS A FACT. Hold big meetings and people get mightily moved and changed in those events. And nowadays the only large events are highly simplified Christian ones....secular ones....or more and more occult secular ones - Dennis Rhodesdo you reckon people get mightily changed in big meetings? for a day or two yeah...touched..yes...changed? dunno about that Chris. Anyway, As David's friend said to him, do all that is in your heart to do! 2 Sam 7:3
- Chris WelchIf you think about it there are points in your life where God has nailed you.Something flicked on your insides.it is true that 2 out of my 5 biggest were God presencing Himself just with me. But I was converted in a young people's move around Billy Graham films. And i prayed alongside 2000-3000 others with Ern Baxter leading...the prayer of Mary ...I don't know how you are going to do this birthing of yourself in me...but Be it unto me according to your Word.
So yes...whether individually or corporately what really changes the rest of our lives is decisions or permissions....a bit like the marriage ceremony really. Such a dry matter of fact moment...but changes the face of your then known life!!!! - Dennis Rhodesyep....but I simply cannot be in a meeting where everyone is looking to God up there anymore. Pentecost is over. all that leavened mixture.
- Chris Welchyes....makes you wonder what several thousand of real knowers in a room would be like!!!
- Dennis RhodesI am not looking for that experience....I find it funny that you are really....like you are missing something....I am not missing that...we have all, we are it...it is not up to me to do anything...or to get people together...maybe it is up to you. All I am doing is growing blue gums, loving my wife and kids, paying bills. When Jesus came back from the wilderness full of the power of the Spirit crowds were a given, for power flowed out of him to heal all. Me thinks we are all still in the wilderness, or not even taken out of the quiver yet....when the time had fully come God sent forth his son....Paul was the same, Joseph in prison...we may think it's been long enough, surely I am ready to change the world and hold big meetings...But God left Joseph in prison beyond his limits of waiting, till he cared not about any of the dream stuff...could not care less, cos he knew he was nothing, could do nothing....he was not just pretending to know that..God was and is the one who knows how long to cook the goose!..and the oven door will stay shut until he opens it...otherwise we will only have another Welsh revival...which petered out to nothing. Those days are gone.
- Chris Welchinteresting you say that...because from what I glean there was only one Evan Roberts....who had stumbled on the "Melchizedek Order" way of running meetings....face down. At least in Acts 2 there were 12 stood up. Actually ofcourse there were 120 which is quite a clump of Holy Ghost energy!!!
I think that's what I'm meaning....we're moving out of ones and twos time and small Fred Pruitt type house to housers to a time where at least some of the gatherings people may have to go miles for...but they will be Tabernacle Third Feast events.
The early ones in the UK around 79/80 made a great impression on me. They were held in the community room in a big house in Fishers Pond ,Colden Common,Southampton. All part of the same set up Daniel was in. - Chris WelchI'm checking up my insides....and i really don't think this is about me...or my need for it...it's coming out of a Holy Ghost fire to spread what I have. Kind of like what I did in my school when I was baptised in the Spirit. I'm hesitant to say I led the revival....it is true I preached in some school assemblies at 13....but a blind 90 year old woman was praying the Presence down on our school...so they say....with half our older school strung out on drugs and the headmaster having a nervous breakdown. And I was accompanied by loads in my year getting saved and filled with the Spirit. Fun times!!!
- Today
- Dennis Rhodessorry for the delay again, your last message came through at midnight. Yes..nothing happens until someone does something. Who will go for me?.Isa 6 I have had this argument over and over. If I am one spirit...and I always do Gods will for how can I not be if I am as He is and one spirit...then whatever I do or don't do is deemed to be Gods will. Well, that sounds like an excuse for sin or laziness...or whatever I want. So without being able to discern my "insides" whether it is of God or me...I am a frozen chosen. So now I don't do anything except write Christian theory on line like this and all the other chosen frozen on here, all trying to motivate each other to actually DO SOMETHING.
Straight away, I hear the accuser in me....sorry for that Chris...but this is the dilemma. I see that the church probably mostly does things because of the pushing power of the accuser...."do something for God." Rest in Me....seems like a lazy excuse to one who is being pushed.
So I give up on it all.
In reflection, I decided to go to Uganda...made the decision..bought a ticket with money that the labour government gave all aussies as a welfare handout in 2008...I went...stayed with one pastor...saw 120 muslims convert to Christ...many were healed...gifts of the spirit flowed...people baptized, delivered of demons...
Same thing happened in 2009...
If I did not decide to do it, those peoples lives would be the same maybe?
Anyway, gotta go to work. - Today
- Chris WelchAwesome thought...that those guys histories are changed because you did something!!!
- Dennis RhodesAnd so who cares whether anyone knows about union? Just do whatever you want and call it God's will.
- Today
- Chris WelchI'll tell you the difference. Teaching about Genesis 3 is like taking the red and the yellow or green lead out of a timebomb waiting to go off. All recent evangelism has done is secure the eternal destiny of those blowing themselves up. That's not the gospel. We are about removing the Genesis 3 explosive completely.
For this purpose was the Son of God manifest that He might destroy ALL the works of the enemy.
Evangelicalism is : For this purpose was the Son of God manifest, to give people a secure destiny as they blow themselves up.
Morris Cerullo is about : For this purpose was the Son of God manifest to destroy all the works of the enemy...sickness, debt, depression, just leave the same identities intact so that their same genesis 3 problems can build up again to explode later on. Don't deal with anything at root
