Be careful whom you listen to! Galatians 5:7-9

Skilled Workman Posted on May 7, 2012 by David BergslandMay 7, 2012

Galatians 5:7–8 You were doing so well until someone talked you out of obeying the truth. This persuasion did not come from Him who calls you. We must always be careful who we listen to. Over the years my wife and I have spent countless hours correcting strange beliefs held by immature Christians. Note carefully, I do not see any hint here that Paul is calling these people heathens. What he is saying is that the result … Continue reading →

Are you sure God wants to heal you? Gal 4:12-15

Skilled Workman Posted on March 19, 2012 by David BergslandMarch 19, 2012

Verse 4:12a Brothers and sisters, I became like you, so I beg you to become like me. Paul had taken on Gentile cultural practices in order to minister to them effectively. Here he is asking those to whom he ministered to become like him spiritually. This entire little section seems to be about reminding the Galatians about the ties they have of friendship and love. The larger question is: How much are we to mimic our leaders? … Continue reading →

Here’s a link to an excellent article about dry times

Skilled Workman Posted on June 27, 2011 by David BergslandJune 27, 2011

The Desert Experience This is written by the leader of some home churches in Colorado—well, actually, he’s probably more anti-religious than that. Be that as it may, it is an excellent article and certainly reflects my experience over the past for decades. You need to understand this stuff. Dry times are a good thing Let the Lord minister to you freely.

Called to teach the Word?

Skilled Workman Posted on May 1, 2011 by David BergslandMarch 23, 2020

If you’re Called to teach the Word – then God has given us our mode of operation. Remember we’ll be judged more strictly because of the responsibility of the calling. Timothy 2:24-26 The slave of the Lord must not be argumentative. He or she must be kind to everyone, inclined and gifted to teach, patient, correcting those opposed to your teaching with gentleness. God might give them repentance so they can come to know the Truth. In … Continue reading →
