3:1-2 - Both leaders and people need the above 2-fold prayer. Today,
October 23, 2009, we need this prayer for our nation. We have had
leaders appointed - czars - not responsible to people or government,
who are seeking to remove our freedoms. How different from George
Washington and Abraham Lincoln! We indeed pray for our leaders, as we
are exhorted in Scriptures; and God hears. But He Himself permits
such a chain of events - so that we - His people - may come alive! We
have been asleep. Or like the frog in heating water, are unaware of
our danger, until we have been boiled. God would spare us this, and
present governments such as ours can awaken us and send us back to 2
Chronicles 7:14.</span></span></span></font></font></p>

of their life-style. And professing believers need to consider their
example, and walk in it. These 2 letters major on the Return of our
Lord. This section is a practical word in the light of this emphasis.
Lewi Pethrus of Stockholm, Sweden in his great Filadelfia church,
practiced the truth of this section. In a congregation of some 6000
composed even of members of the royal family and government, often
50-100 members would be seated on a raised platform at the back of
the sanctuary, until they had paid the penalty for infractions such
as the above. “Christian Church Discipline” was the title of a
book written by Pastor Pethrus, outlining the reason for and methods
of - ministering this subject. It brought the presence of the Lord,
and made this church one of Smith Wigglesworth's favorite in
ministering to. God is pleased when we obey His word in disciplining
either our children, or church members. On one occasion one of our
children said, “Dad, I know why you spank us when we need it - it's
so we don't turn out to be brats like kids whose parents won't spank
them!” Well said, Dr, Spock not withstanding!</span></span></span></font></font></p>

had to personally sign letters his secretaries recorded, because of
dishonest writers who sought to get their writings read by appending
Paul's name to them! Dishonesty is still prevalent in our day, 2000
years later! As a matter of fact, God's word records that just prior
to Christ's return, world standards will be at their lowest ebb! How
many can testify to the truth of God's prophetic word in this regard?
