MAT 28:19-20,  "Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit,

MAT 28:20  teaching them to observe all that I commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age. (times of the Gentiles)."

  1. "Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations; 

 

  1. Baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit (as a teaching aid of the Baptism of the Spirit),

When it comes to being treated a certain way, remember MAT 7:12  "Therefore, however you want people to treat you, treat them in that same way.

 

Never forget, the importance of what the Bible says concerning our treatment to others as a reflection of our treatment to our Lord; Mat 25:40.

 

Mat 25:40  "Truly I say to you, to the extent that you did it to one of these brothers of Mine, even the least of them, you did it to Me.'

 

To be careful of  judgments that we make toward others even if it means taken wrong rather than right for the sake of reconciliation.

 

ROM 14:4   Who are you to judge the servant of another? To his own master he stands or falls; and stand he will, for the Lord is able to make him stand.

 

ROM 14:10   But you, why do you judge your brother? Or you again, why do you regard your brother with contempt? For we shall all stand before the judgment seat of God.

 

The Ultimate goal that we should all have together; Joh 13:34-35.

  1. The apostle Paul informed us that if we suffer with the Lord we would be glorified with him, Rom 8:17-18.

Phi 1:29 for to you it has been granted for Christ's sake, not only to believe in him, but also to suffer for His sake,

  

Col 1:24  Now I rejoice in my sufferings for your sake, and in my flesh I do my share on behalf of his body (which is the church) in filling up that which is lacking in Christ's afflictions.

  

1Th 1:6  You also became imitators of us and of the Lord, having received the word in much tribulation with the joy of the Holy Spirit.

In 2Pe 2:2, Peter tells us that the way of doctrine will be maligned and attacked, and many will follow their sensuality, and because of them the way of the truth will be maligned;  

In 1Jo 3:13, the apostle John says, “Do not be surprised, brethren, if the world hates you.

  1. Worry is a mental attitude sin which is self-induced and therefore soulish torment or anxiety regarding anything in life.

 

  1. Worry is a disquieting and painful state of mind involving undue concern over something in life.  

 

You are neither quartered, or supplied or transported, which is of course the military meaning of logistics.  

The filling of the Spirit and walking in the Spirit as you advance in enemy territory, the devil's world, is the solution to being worried.

Worry always anticipates the worst, and so becomes apprehension or anticipation of danger, misfortune, trouble, or uncertainty.  

Worry is a state of restlessness and agitation, producing mental disturbance, uneasiness, anxiety, and painful uncertainty.

They fell into reversionism and began to go backwards.

You cannot afford to be pinned down and you cannot afford to retreat after you have reached the adult stage of the spiritual life, because the fall is great and the misery that follows is self-destructive.

If you retreat, you do not go back to your previous stage of spiritual growth, you're out of fellowship, you're out of the PPOG, you go back to reversionism.  

Worry then, short-circuits the function of the faith rest technique.  

Worry causes the believer to be pinned down in no man's land, and to be pinned down in no man's land means to become a casualty for reversionism.  

Worry is a destroyer of the soul.  If unchecked, it results in mental illness.  

Worry in the mind causes shock to the body, Pro 12:25  Anxiety in the heart of a man weighs it down, but a good word makes it glad.

Worry is a satanic device to lead the believer into reversionism and the sin unto death, Eze 4:1517,12:1819.

Worry is a great weapon in the hands of Satan because the forces of evil take over the soul as a result of worry.  

Worry makes you vulnerable to the enemies especially attack in no man's land.

This is why the perpetuation of the function of perception, metabolization and application of Bible doctrine becomes absolutely necessary to put muscle on your faith, as per the principle of Psa 55:22.

Bad news causes worry, Jer 49:23ff.  

Worry causes hysteria, LUK 10:41  But the Lord answered and said to her, "Martha, Martha, you are worried and bothered about so many things;

People cause worry.  People are always worried about other people. Worriers have to have an object, 1Sa 10:2.  

Economic disaster is a cause of worry, Jer 42:16.  

Sin causes worry.  People worry about sin which causes guilt, Psa 38:18.  Worry is a sin, Rom 14:23b.

Rom 14:23  whatever is not from faith is sin.

Therefore, we are ordered to stop worrying, Luk 12:29, Phi 4:67.

Luk 12:29  "And do not seek what you shall eat, and what you shall drink, and do not keep worrying."

Worry characterizes reversionism, Isa 57:11.

Worry does not solve problems, Mat 6:2534.  Logistical grace offsets worry.

Worry distracts from doctrinal teaching, Mat 13:22

Luk 8:14.

Blessing from God includes freedom from worry, Jer 17:7-8.
