Envy ^ Pride - the Battle 4 Ur Soul
Last Monday, I took a trip down to Genesis Church in Woburn, MA for an ACTS29 church planters conference. I went with Philip DeFeo and Pastor Anthony Milas. Here are some notes from the 1st session.
EnVy- Matt Cruz, 7 Mile Road Church Boston, MA
- There is no 2 be SOMEONE else or SOMEWHERE else.
- EnVy is the SIDEWAYS GLANCE of the SOUL & Dissatisfaction.
- “Fight Club” - Name your SINS and beat them down.
Here are some areas of EnVy in mInistry temptation will come at some point wish…
Different Core Team // Different Gifts // Different City, People, PLace //Different spouse // Doing something else
Adultery DOESN’T start with the eyes, starts w/ EnVy
ProVerbs 14:30 - Tranquil HEART leads to PEACE » EnVy is CANCEROUS
EnVy festering makes you GO AGAINST your brothers/sister, ULTIMATELY GOD!
Philippians PAUL acknowledged that some preach CHRIST from EnVy!
They LOSE their reward.
RESPONSE - Don’t TOLERATE / Kill It / Don’t Let it Out
AN INCH, A HALF AN INCH, is TOO MUCH room. ZERO TOLERANCE
Acts 20- Paul’s account of life - VaLue came from GOD. Focus on Scripture you will see your PLACE. WE ARE SERVANTS.
remember “Some plant, Water, but God gives growth”
Planting - Human, Water - Human, Growth - GOD
ALL OF US, CAN HAVE ALL OF GOD, ALL OF THE TIME
