PASTOR JOHN COLLINS:
B-ASIC I-NSTRUCTIONS B-EFORE L-EAVING E-ARTH
(BIBLE)
The Holy Bible has been described as “Basic Instructions
Before Leaving Earth” for Christians. It
contains history, instruction, and advice for daily living that applies to
living today just as it did when the scriptures were first written. Pastor John Collins, evangelist of John Collins Ministries, cautions us to have patience for those who do not
believe in the Bible or who have known the Bible and turned away from what it
teaches. Patience and compassion is
needed for those who are lost, and more people turn from the Bible and its
teachings every day. We need to hold fast to our faith and the teaching of hope
that are found in the Bible.
It has been described as God’s letter of love to us by Pastor John Collins.
Pastor John Collins is spreading revival and hope throughout
the United States for over three years. Humans have taken the word of God and
twisted and distorted the messages found there to suit the purposes of the
people preaching the word, rather than what the intention in. Bibles have been transliterated and
retranslated repeatedly since the collection was first compiled thousands of
years ago. There was a time when only
priests were reading the scriptures, and the general population was kept in
ignorance of the words meant for all.
One monk was tortured for transcribing and translating the Bible and
giving the pages to people so that they could read for themselves. The results of the translations,
transliterations, the restrictions and conflicts have resulted in a Gospel that
is in need of redemption itself-Pastor John Collins is committed to redeeming
the word of the Gospel so that all can hear the truth that was taught when
Jesus Christ had his ministry, as an aside, Jesus based his preaching on the Old
Testament scriptures, we have both Old and New Testament documents to draw
from, and we are still struggling to understand what God wants for us. Pastor John Collins preaches God is in the
business of saving souls, He is not a genie in the sky who grants us our every
wish, says Pastor John Collins. God
demands humility. Pastor John Collins
goes on to say He is a loving and just Father who does care for us and expects
us to become like His Son Jesus Christ in our actions and deeds, with that
humility. Jesus Christ is our example
for how we are to live our lives and the Bible is the book of directions on how
to do this!
“You must not become discouraged by those who choose to dismiss the bible, mock the bible or ridicule your belief in the bible. You must hold to the truth of the word of God because it is the beginning and constant encouragement for your faith as you go through life. Do not reduce the bible to fairytales and nonsense but hold tight to the instruction and wisdom that it contains. The bible is full of truth, history, instruction and hope.” (Pastor John Collins, February, 2018.)
Pastor John Collins preaches that we need to open our Bibles
and encourage one another. The times are
changing and hope is coming. The
prosperity that God promises is not the kind that is taught by those like Joel
Osteen, Paula White, Joyce Meyer, and Creflo Dollar. God’s prosperity is based on whether you are
doing what you are told, are you serving God the correct way?
Pastor John Collins writes:
“All Scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is
profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in
righteousness, that the man of God may be complete, thoroughly equipped for
every good work.” 2 Timothy 3:16-17 (NKJV).
The bible is for believers, not non-believers so you cannot
hold all people to the standard in which God holds you. The Christian needs to
be excellent and committed. It is no time for lackluster faith and subpar
obedience to the word of God. For the believer in the work of our Lord Jesus
Christ, it is his responsibility to come to know the word of God, the history
of the plan of God and how your own salvation needs to be obtained through a
commitment to understanding the spirit of God and applying this knowledge to
your own life so that you may remain unstained in this world.
You cannot have the expectation that others in this world
will live by your faith or that any will respect your faith in God. The bible
is there for you to come to know the expectations that God has for you and for
you to become a true disciple of Christ. The rest is up to you so that you may
put into practice what you come to know and you do that through prayer and
trial and error but with a never-ending commitment to the path of
righteousness. You must not become discouraged by those who choose to dismiss
the bible, mock the bible or ridicule your belief in the bible. You must hold
to the truth of the word of God because it is the beginning and constant
encouragement for your faith as you go through life. Do not reduce the bible to
fairytales and nonsense but hold tight to the instruction and wisdom that it
contains. The bible is full of truth, history, instruction and hope.
It is not for you to judge those who dismiss the bible but
to have patience and compassion for the lost. There are more and more that fall
away each day so it is up to you to hold tight to what is right, true and good.
“For the time will come when they will not endure sound
doctrine, but according to their own desires, because they have itching ears,
they will heap up for themselves teachers; and they will turn their ears away
from the truth, and be turned aside to fables.” 2 Timothy 4:3-4 (NKJV).
