Christians in this generation possibly rely solely on what their pastor preaches. Despite the easy access to the Holy Bible, many shy away from studying the scared book.
Apart from prosperous and promising verses you are conversant with through your pastor’s teachings, here are 7 revealing Bible verses your pastor will not emphatically read to your ears during his sermon in the church.
1. Deuteronomy 14:23
“Eat the tithe of your grain, new wine and olive oil, and the firstborn of your herds and flocks in the presence of the LORD your God at the place he will choose as a dwelling for his Name, so that you may learn to revere the LORD your God always.”
The Bible says EAT your tithe?
2. Deuteronomy 14:25
“Then exchange your tithe for silver, and take the silver with you and go to the place the LORD your God will choose.”
You also have the privilege to exchange your tithe for silver.
3. Deuteronomy 14:26
“Use the silver to buy whatever you like: cattle, sheep, wine or other fermented drink, or anything you wish. Then you and your household shall eat there in the presence of the LORD your God and rejoice.”
After the exchange of your tithe, you and your household enjoys.
4. 1Timothy 2:12
“I do not permit a woman to teach or to assume authority over a man; she must be quiet.”
Why then do we have female pastors?
5. Luke 14:26
“If anyone comes to me and does not hate his own father and mother and wife and children and brothers and sisters, yes, and even his own life, he cannot be my disciple.”
Then where is the place of love and care to others in the kingdom? Meanwhile you cannot preach Christ without love.
6. Matthew 10:34-36
“Do not think that I have come to bring peace to the earth. I have not come to bring peace, but a sword. For I have come to set a man against his father, and a daughter against her mother, and a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law. And a person’s enemies will be those of his own household.”
Why do we need Christ, if he had come with a sword? When a sword symbolizes war.
7. Matthew 5:21-22
“You have heard that it was said to those of old, ‘You shall not murder; and whoever murders will be liable to judgment.’ But I say to you that everyone who is angry with his brother will be liable to judgment; whoever insults his brother will be liable to the council; and whoever says, ‘You fool!’ will be liable to the hell of fire.”
The word FOOL is a chorus abuse among everyone, including Christians, especially if you drive in Lagos.
The fact remains that the hurdles of life is not exempted from those who are Christ followers because Jesus Christ himself was faced hardship. It has been recently observed in the modern churches that there are some scriptural verses that pastors dodge away from, with reasons known to them.
