When We Assemble: Part II

    How is it then, brethren? Whenever you come together each of you has a psalm, has a teaching, has a tongue, has a revelation, has an interpretation. Let all things be done for edification. I Corinthians 14:26

    When we assemble as a body of the "Risen Christ," something many don't understand being indoctrinated for eons by the traditions and doctrines of men and demons! Remember that little thing we did as kids when we entwined our fingers and said, "This is the church, this is the steeple, open the doors and see all the people?" 

    A very seemingly harmless but very dangerous statement indeed and already implanting a word in a child's mind, "Church" and what it is: a building with a steeple and pews full of people sitting in it! Ever since Constantine made the church the state religion the devil took control of many of our Christian practices. Church became organized with man becoming the center of attention and everyone else just sat and listened to whatever he had to say!

    Most of the leadership of the modern-day church were trained in seminaries that taught many of the humanistic traditions that we have today, basically how to have church! The pastor became the leader of the church armed with the order of service in which no one else can enter without his expressed permission. Hardly ever can a member participate in the service because of the Clergy/Laity tradition set by the leadership.

    Till we all come to the knowledge of the Son of God, to a perfect man, to the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ. Ephesians 4:13

NO LONGER CHILDREN

    That we should no longer be children, tossed to and fro and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the trickery of men, in the cunning craftiness of deceitful plotting. Ephesians 4:14

    Today we have thousands of denominations, sects and even cults, many of whom started out with honest intentions but were perverted by pastors who were not accountable to anyone and became the supreme leader of the church not to be questioned! 

    Jim Jones who killed almost a thousand of his members started out a Pentecostal preacher doing the ministry, feeding the poor and spending much time doing what pastors do. But the ministry overloaded him, so he began to take drugs which perverted him and then having sex with his members that led him to move the church to the South American jungle where he could totally dominate his members!

    This is what can happen when we don't follow the instructions that Jesus laid down for us in His word. The apostle is the architect of the church having the Divine blueprint to build with as the apostle Paul used at Corinth. If you were to build a house without a blueprint it could end up a trainwreck of good intensions like many churches have led by their own understanding.

    But speaking the truth in love, may grow up in all things into Him who is the Head-Christ. Ephesians 4:15

EVERY PART DOES ITS SHARE

    From whom the whole body, joined and knit together by what every joint (us) supplies, according to the effective working by which every part does its share, causes growth of the body for the edifying of itself in love. Ephesians 4:16

    One of the biggest problems today is many in the churches are not born-again and many of those who are haven't received the baptism in the Holy Spirit. This is very problematic leaving thousands dead spiritually not knowing what their part is.

    When we are born of the flesh our organs begin to function with every part doing what the body needs. When one is born-again, he also begins to function as he was called building up the body in faith! As he grows in the Spirit, he uses his gift and shares it with the other members so that their faith is built up. If the pastor is the only one sharing, there leaves a great deficit in the body rendering it powerless and without faith!

    So, when we assemble the gospel should be presented so that if there is anyone lost, he may be saved. Although the assembly is reserved for the saved there will almost always be those who are not that need Jesus! The body of Christ deserves to be the most powerful entity in the earth with all of its members doing their share to build up the faith of their brothers and sisters!

    "Most assuredly, I say to you, unless one is born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God." John 3:3

Mission Statement

"The Spirit of the Lord is upon Me, Because He has anointed Me To preach the gospel to the poor. He has sent Me to heal the brokenhearted, To proclaim liberty to the captives And recovery of sight to the blind, To set at liberty those who are oppressed; To proclaim the acceptable year of the Lord."

Luke 4: 18-19

Your servant in Christ, Timothy Laughlin
   Minister of the Gospel of Jesus Christ

Tim Laughlin has been involved in full time ministry for over thirty-five years. Set free from a $2000.00 a week cocaine addiction and fifteen years of alcoholism, Tim gave his life to Jesus in 1980 and was immediately delivered. Trained in the streets, led only by the Holy Spirit, Tim prayed for drug addicts, prostitutes and anyone else that wanted to be free from the strongholds of sin. With a burning desire to see people saved and healed Tim founded and directed several Christian residential programs such as Manna Ministries, one of the largest and most successful women's ministries in the Southwest. Apostle to the ''NO-BODY'S'' of this world, Tim has been involved in virtually every facet of ministry, from prison, ex offenders, UN-wed mothers, addicts, Gays and those that nobody wants. Without formal training and only a love for people Tim has seen hundreds set free, healed, delivered and raised from the dead by God's powerful anointing available to everyone that asks Him. Through many trials and fires in his own life Tim has learned to trust in the Lord for all of his needs and to rely on the Holy Spirit for guidance in every circumstance. His vision is for the Body of Christ to become the powerful army of disciples that God intended them to be, trained for battle and loving people from all walks of life. Tim's wife, Mary Ann works along side him ministering and training those that come for help. Deemed hopeless from extended drug abuse and surviving five mental institutions, Mary Ann was set free and healed miraculously and restored to a beautiful woman of God. Tim and Mary Ann are available to speak to your church or organization. Personal counseling and individual training are available upon request. Drug and alcohol addiction therapy is also available for adults and teens through support groups and referrals. For more information please contact us. ***Bless the Lord, O my soul, and forget not all His benefits; Who forgives all your iniquities, Who heals all your diseases, Who redeems your life from destruction, Who crowns you with loving kindness and tender mercies."   Psalms 103: 2-4***
