The Great Commission our LORD gave us is twofold and includes both preaching to get souls saved and then teaching them all these things Jesus gave us in His Word (Matthew 28:18-20 Mark 16:15).

Many can be heard saying “I give to my church.” But is this something to be proud of? Is this what Jesus wants? Or, does the LORD want His children giving to build His true church which is His people, not physical buildings?

What did Jesus command His people to go do?

“Go ye therefore, and teach all nations … Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you.” Matthew 28:18-20

“And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature … ” Mark 16:15

Christ never told us to go and build physical church buildings. He and His apostles never built even one physical structure to advance His eternal kingdom which is “a spiritual house.” (1 Peter 2:5)  Jesus told us to go teach and preach His Word so men could be saved into His eternal kingdom and be taught His truth.  So, for this reason, true disciples of Christ should only support those work which are sincerely preaching and teaching God’s Word faithfully and diligently. Doesn’t a physical building absorb the whole time, monies, and energies of the people, yoking them down to it and completely stopping them from doing what Christ called them to do – go and teach and to preach His Word? Also, have you personally discovered exactly what the earliest Christians did with their money and possessions when they gave alms? Go read Acts 2:44-45; 4:34-35 and find out. Among the saints in the early church, no monies went to a physical building but rather to take care of “God’s building” which is His very people (1 Corinthians 3:9). Regrettably, nearly all local church organizations in this hour of the great falling away are nothing more than a business that exists to perpetuate their own existence and so only entertain and do not faithfully preach and teach the full-counsel of the Word of God.

The goal of the true disciple is not to restore America or help some man build his church business but rather to see lost and back slidden souls restored to Christ! We are His “ministers of reconciliation.” 2 Corinthians 5:17-20

America if full of phony religionists and certainly would not be where it is today if there were more true Christians here. How in the world can anyone claim to have received the glorious “so great salvation” of Christ and not be telling others? Nonsense! (2 Corinthians 5:17-21; Hebrews 2:3)

Mission Mexico Part 26

Our LORD is Changing Lives here in Mexico

Last week our brother in Christ Vicente had a financial need and you met that need for Vicente and his family.

I brought him the money and he was… absolutely elated. He had been telling me about this pretty serious need for a few weeks. Finally I brought him the money he needed. God is able amen saints.

Update: Vicente update: I ran into our brother Vicente this morning and he was ministering to some men who were a work crew right outside of his restaurant on the street. I quickly handed him about 40 JESUS tracts and he began passing them to the men. Going to be supplying Vicente with more of the JESUS tract in Spanish soon.

Our brother is super overjoyed for the help he received to get his family vehicle repaired.

Jesus is God.
He’s coming.


More on the ministry to the Spanish speaking peoples of our LORD’s world! In the fellowship with the Florida group, a dear lady named Hilda repented and received Christ. Thank you for thanking our LORD for saving her and for His perfect will to be done in Hilda’s life. Phil 1:6



Excellent fruitful ministry time with Alex today. He’s also been sent the Born Again book in Spanish (PDF). Would you like to pause and ask God to bless, to save this man? (Ps 2:8; Acts 3:26)

Mission Mexico




“Matthew 5:3! No one wants to be in a humble state of submission in America. Even the so-called Christians! And be needy and weak. Like a little child. They pride themselves on all they can do. And why do I need God I can do it myself! This is why I love hearing testimonies of the people of Mexico who are poor in spirit, meek and humble! Without this you will not enter the kingdom of heaven.” Karen Cochran



Thank you for lifting in prayer the Mexican people – that many more will be saved and established in Christ (1 Timothy 2:4).

WHY IS THE KING JAMES VERSION CALLED THE “AUTHORIZED VERSION”?

Excerpt from “Answers To Your Bible Version Questions”

Question: Why is the King James Bible called the “Authorized Version”? How did King James Authorize it?

Answer: Despite stories to the contrary, King James, in no uncertain terms, clearly authorized the translation of the Bible that now bears his name.

[Note: This is a drastically shortened account of the birth of God’s preserved words in English. Longer accounts are available, as in Final Authority: A Christian’s Guide to the King James Bible, by William P. Grady.]

Sanctioning the Authorized Version

When Elizabeth died on April 1, 1603, she had seen 130 editions of the New Testament and the Bible published during her 45 years as Queen of England. James VI of Scotland, son of Mary, “Queen of Scots,” became James I of England.

Four days later, on his way to London, a delegation of Puritan ministers met James, asking him to hear their grievances against the Church of England. James consented, and on January of 1604, four Puritans came to express their troubles at Hampton Court, in front of King James and over 50 Anglican (Church of England) officials. One by one each request was rejected, until the Puritan group’s leader, John Rainolds said these famous words:

“May your Majesty be pleased to direct that the Bible be now translated, [since] such versions as are extant [are] not answering to the original.”

At first, Bishop Bancroft of London was dead-set against it, saying, “If every man’s humor might be followed, there would be no end to translating.” But the King made it clear he liked the idea. Not too long later Bancroft wrote this to a friend:

I move you in his majesty’s name that, … no time may be overstepped by you for the better furtherance of this holy work…. You will scarcely conceive how earnest his majesty is to have this work begun!

When this Bible was translated, the title page was printed basically as you find it today in Cambridge Bibles:

THE
HOLY BIBLE
CONTAINING THE
OLD AND NEW TESTAMENTS
TRANSLATED OUT OF THE ORIGINAL TONGUES:
AND WITH THE FORMER TRANSLATIONS
DILIGENTLY COMPARED AND REVISED
BY HIS MAJESTY’S SPECIAL COMMAND
 

APPOINTED TO BE READ IN CHURCHES

The King James Bible was “Authorized” to be translated as God’s Word for the English-speaking people of the world. God bless you as you study His authorized and preserved words in English, the King James Bible.
