A TRUE CHURCH OF JESUS CHRIST IS VALIDATED BY CONSISTENT CONTINUAL ELEMENTS IN IT SUCH AS SALVATION, HEALING, DELIVERANCE AND BAPTISM OF THE SPIRIT
Acts 8:5 Then Philip went down to the city of Samaria and preached Christ to them.them to prison. 6 And the multitudes with one accord heeded the things spoken by Philip, hearing and seeing the miracles which he did. 7 For unclean spirits, crying with a loud voice, came out of many who were possessed; and many who were paralyzed and lame were healed. 8 And there was great joy in that city.
1 Corinthians 12:7 But the manifestation of the Spirit is given to each one for the profit of all: 8 for to one is given the word of wisdom through the Spirit, to another the word of knowledge through the same Spirit, 9 to another faith by the same Spirit, to another gifts of healings by the same Spirit, 10 to another the working of miracles, to another prophecy, to another discerning of spirits, to another different kinds of tongues, to another the interpretation of tongues. 11 But one and the same Spirit works all these things, distributing to each one individually as He wills
27 Now you are the body of Christ, and members individually. 28 And God has appointed these in the church: first apostles, second prophets, third teachers, after that miracles, then gifts of healings, helps, administrations, varieties of tongues.
Acts 2:22 "Men of Israel, hear these words: Jesus of Nazareth, a Man attested by God to you by miracles, wonders, and signs which God did through Him in your midst, as you yourselves also know ---
Acts 15:12 Then all the multitude kept silent and listened to Barnabas and Paul declaring how many miracles and wonders God had worked through them among the Gentiles.
Acts 19:11 Now God worked unusual miracles by the hands of Paul,
Galatians 3:5 Therefore He who supplies the Spirit to you and works miracles among you, does He do it by the works of the law, or by the hearing of faith? -
Hebrews 2:4 God also bearing witness both with signs and wonders, with various miracles, and gifts of the Holy Spirit, according to His own will?
WELL IF IT'S NOT A TRUE CHURCH THEN IT'S A DEAD CHURCH WHICH HAS NO LIFE IN IT BUT ONLY DEATH, DISEASE, DECEPTION AND DISMAY. AS A RESULT JESUS STATED IN LUKE 9:59 Then He said to another, "Follow Me." But he said, "Lord, let me first go and bury my father." 60 Jesus said to him, "Let the dead bury their own dead, but you go and preach the kingdom of God."
THE GOSPEL OF PROSPERITY IS A GOSPEL OF PERVERSION BECAUSE IT DOESN'T DEMAND THAT PEOPLE REPENT AND REBUKES NOBODY. THE PREACHING OF THE TRUE WORD OF GOD INCLUDES REBUKE AND REPENTANCE AS WELL AS MIRACLES, SIGNS AND WONDERS FOLLOWING:
Acts 17:30 Truly, these times of ignorance God overlooked, but now commands all men everywhere to repent,
Romans 2:4 Or do you despise the riches of His goodness, forbearance, and longsuffering, not knowing that the goodness of God leads you to repentance?
2 Corinthians 7:9 Now I rejoice, not that you were made sorry, but that your sorrow led to repentance. For you were made sorry in a godly manner, that you might suffer loss from us in nothing.
1 Timothy 5:20 Those who are sinning rebuke in the presence of all, that the rest also may fear.
2 Timothy 4:1 I charge you therefore before God and the Lord Jesus Christ, who will judge the living and the dead at His appearing and His kingdom: 2 Preach the word! Be ready in season and out of season. Convince, rebuke, exhort, with all longsuffering and teaching. 3 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; 4 and they will turn their ears away from the truth, and be turned aside to fables.
IT'S MORE IMPORTANT TO HAVE INTEGRITY THAN BEING A LIAR AND A DECEIVER?
This practice of selling “spiritual things” has a name for such spiritual fraud: “Simony”.
It comes from Acts 8, where Simon the Magician offered to Pay Peter and John to pray with them to receive the Holy Spirit. He obviously saw a lot of entertainment value. It was a practice in some churches “of the buying and selling sacred of spiritual things, as ecclesiastical pardons, church offices etc.” Simon the magician who had amazed Samaria with his entertainment saw some real financial possibilities here when he watched Peter and John praying with people to receive the Holy Spirit, just like these kind of preachers or whatever they call themselves.
“Now when Simon saw that the Spirit was given through the laying on of the apostles’ hands, he offered them money, saying, ‘Give to me also this power, that any one on whom I lay hands may receive the Holy Spirit’” (Acts 8: 18). Listen to what Peter said to Simon, which applies to all people who want to sell and buy spiritual things. “But Peter said to him, “Your silver perish with you, because you thought you could obtain the gift of God with money! You have neither part nor lot in this matter, for your heart is not right before God. Repent therefore of this wickedness of yours, and pray to the Lord that, if possible, the intent of your heart may be forgiven. For I see in you the gall of bitterness and in the bond of iniquity” (Acts 8: 20 – 23). This is a sure and certain path to hell whenever someone thinks they can sell or buy anything that Jesus offers by faith. Such people should follow Peter’s advice and repent. Simon’s response was, “Pray for me to the Lord, that nothing of what you have said may come upon me.”
This practice shows us where such people are at: “For the love of money is the root of all evils; it is through t his craving that some have wandered away from the faith and pierced their heart with many pangs (pains)” (1 Tim. 6: 10). These people have sold themselves to hell. These people have become the modern Scribes, Pharisees and Sadducees, to whom Jesus said, “You are wrong because you know neither the Scriptures nor the power of God (Matt. 22: 29). They have sold themselves cheaply to the devil.
