Moises my friend and brother ~ I appreciate your additional support of the issue facing us all regarding our desire that others recieve what God has freely given to us.
I do not want people to misinterpret my intentions here.

I certainly do not seek to slander your name or bring false accusation upon you in any way. To clear any doubt, and to make the effort to allay any crude perceptions let me say that I believe that we all have to come to this temptation that would try us all, regarding the offering out of the Gift of God to us in a world that is accessed only by money. It is a sober necessity to really come to terms with the fact that money, mamon and the Word of God simply do not mix. I think we all want to see the Truth we have here, out in the world as a best seller and it is so hard to realise that what we have is not wanted.
As I understand, our Brother Paul also angished too, as regarding the agony he went through as he saw his kinsmen being those to whom God did not give His insights.
Rom 9:1 I say the truth in Christ, I lie not, my conscience also bearing me witness in the Holy Ghost,
Rom 9:2 That I have great heaviness and continual sorrow in my heart.
Rom 9:3 For I could wish that myself were accursed from Christ for my brethren, my kinsmen according to the flesh:We too have to feel this cutting to our hearts as we see our family, worldly friends and carnal flesh soul ties being separated from us as we see the Truth that only God and His Spirit can make known, visible and comprehensible. Our efforts can’t do Gods work of His Spirit. We learn this more and more as we assimilate the Truth expounded through for instance Winning Souls for Jesus?
That the temptation comes to us for us to think about how we can get the Truth we so cherish to others or how we can extend the rich banquet of Truth we have here, is perhaps what we all have to at one time or other, think about. The standard has been set not for sale and the world only functions of trade, buy, sell and profit and loss having no Godly interest vested in association with Prophets of God but for tax deductions!
We all have felt the enthusiasm to share what we know and many have fallen short, been turned on and against for what we now know is the Truth. Friends give us an ultimatum to get back to being normal or loose their friendship because we have changed, family have scorned us and yet we still love what we know is the Truth despite the fact our loved ones don’t get it because God has not given it to them yet. It hurts yet our Brother Paul, though he too suffered the pain of seeing his people of his flesh, the Jews, not seeing the Truth, Paul found this comfort that
Rom 11:1 I say then, Hath God cast away his people? God forbid. For I also am an Israelite, of the seed of Abraham, of the tribe of Benjamin.
Rom 11:31 Even so have these also now not believed, that through your mercy they also may obtain mercy.
Rom 11:32 For God hath concluded them all in unbelief, that he might have mercy upon all.
Rom 11:33 O the depth of the riches both of the wisdom and knowledge of God! how unsearchable are his judgments, and his ways past finding out!
Rom 11:34 For who hath known the mind of the Lord? or who hath been his counsellor?
Rom 11:35 Or who hath first given to him, and it shall be recompensed unto him again?
Rom 11:36 For of him, and through him, and to him, are all things: to whom be glory for ever. AmenThis is the Truth. God will make all eyes to see. Jesus also looked past his cross and despising the shame, He focused on what God was doing, and not going against God
Heb 12:2 Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God.I have learned that as much as the Truth is despised, it is the Work of God to make it known and as much as there is shameful rejection of the Truth, it is all concluded in the Work of God that accomplishes the joy that is captured in our Brother Paul’s communications to us that we share in experiencing the depth of the riches both of the wisdom and knowledge of our God! As Paul says, the Judgments of the Lord are past finding out for they have to be given as a Gift of the Spirit of God and to us it is given.
1Co 2:9 But as it is written, Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love him. 1Co 2:10 But God HATH REVEALED THEM UNTO US BY HIS SPIRIT: for the Spirit searcheth all things, yea, the deep things of God.That God has revealed them unto us by His Spirit is certainly the joy set before us as we endure our cross that pains us as we participate in the Work of our God working all things in accord to the council of His Will.
I see you as a brother DanTheMan ~ you desire all to come to the knowledge of our Lord. Paul wanted that, I wanted it too and many want to share what we know yet that is not the end of it. We have to come to see that God is in control of everything, and the subsequent joy that comes of trusting, knowing, relying and believing it, by the Work of the Truth through the Spirit of God illuminating our eyes, opening our ears and enlightening our minds and hearts with the Presence of Christ within.
I just share what I feel and understand. One thing that God makes me aware of is that there is a temptation to do as Sara did that is written for my exhortation. God willing, I shall obey and NOT do as Sara did. God willing I obey and conduct myself better than Sara, which is my fervent desire! I don’t want to sell out God! God forbid. It is only from this perspective from where I speak, not to persuade you or influence you, but only to give account to you of what I believe to be true. For what it's worth as a sister.
