BRUTE, CULTISH “GOOD OLE BOYS WILL BE (MINISTRY LEADERSHIP PLAYTIME) BOYS…IS NOT LISTED AMONG THE GALATIANS 5:22-23 ACCEPTED FIRST CHURCH”FRUITS” OF THE HOLY SPIRIT….
…FOR RATHER IT RESEMBLES I SAMUEL ELI, STAFF MINISTERS HOPHNI, PHINEAS ..PRIOR TO THE ICHABOD. **
** which MAY be compared ..at least in part..to the Mega GOD’s Old Testament Type of ME TOO movement….
NO MALE EVER..in all my LIFE and PROPHETIC MINISTRY…EVER APPEARS TO ONGOING MISINTERPRETS “EGO” READS SOMETHING INTO (SIMPLY PUT) THIS LADY CHATTING, BEING A REAL FRIEND..(PLATONIC) A CONFIDANT… REPEATED COFFEE SHOP AND/…OR MINISTRY FELLOWSHIP…
OTHER THAN THE (MANY PEOPLE PLEASING) MINISTRY GOOD OLE. BOY.
I SPEAK FOR OTHER SIMILAR LEADER YOUNG AND MATURE REAL WOMEN..IT IS INSULTING AND NOT ONE BIT CHRIST LIKE + “(no holy fear of the Lord Big Old Ministry) “GOSSIP THY NAME IS GOOD OLE BIG BOY, HIS BIG GAL”….. DR T NOTES THIS REPEATED, EVER LASTING, BUT AVOIDING “ONE TO ONE CONFRONTATION” (ALL OF THESE ARE “UNSUBMITTED” TO Holy Bible: Matthew 18:15-16/meek Galatians 6:1, respectful I JOHN 1:7)… ..submitted following the last 25 YEARS.USUALLY (“ONLY”) USA WHITE LP DISCOVERIES.
“If you cannot TRUST these spiritual “TYPES” of “Christian Ministry Authority” ..where THEN CAN YOU GO?? YET of course, THESE “accuse” those who depart for being “OFFENDED” “COMPLAINING” Or “Resigned.. mutter among themselves…”It’s just the long prophesied BIBLE “FALLING AWAY”…However, truth be told, the FAULT FINDING NO LONGER TRUST WORTHY FELLOWSHIP Fruit: the 2 Timothy 3:1-5/I Timothy 6:5 (materialistic) Friendly Fire From Such Turn Away Type Fellowship OR the DRIVING THEM AWAY (perhaps like the USA)
PRIOR TO MODERN MEDIA EFFECTED MINISTRY DAYS…BACK IN THE ORIGINS OF WHAT PAUL WOULD LATER EXPOUND UPON..A EPHESIANS 4 COMMUNITY…..FAR BACK IN TIME…WAY BACK WHEN THE CHURCH WAS MINISTRY “ALL EORR” RESPECTFUL..AND GRATEFUL FOR EVERY TYPE OF HUMAN PERSON WHO WANTED TO GET TO KNOW THE SAVING… LOVE OF JESUS
ABOVE: We need less cold “efficient’ WE CENTRIC Good Ole Boyism in in current FORMS of Ministry….
BEGINNING..WAY LONG AGO, BEFORE ELEVATED NON CONTRITE “ELITE OFFICES” AND WILLING STAFF…DIMLY VIEWED ALL ATTENDERS… NEWBIES… REPEAT VISITORS… AS “THEIR OWN PIECE OF PROPERTY” …AS “AN PREFERRED..OR NON PREFERRED ” TYPE” ….AND BEFORE ANY IN THE CHRISTIAN CHURCH OFFICES SET UP SELF PRESERVING TIME SAVING, MINISTRY “EFFICIENT” ..WELL MEANING..BIAS…WAY LONG FOR GOING TO A RELIGIOUS CHURCH WAS TAKING A HUGE RISK… OF MAYBE BEING BIASED AGAINST, READILY DISMISSED ….FOR NONE OF THEM BACK THEN WERE “ENTITLED” NOR HAD THE VALUE OF ATTENDING FELLOW BELIEVERS< NON BELIEVERS BEEN DUMMIED SO WAY DOWN..THAT THEY RESORTED TO CONVENIENT, SELF PRESERVING, TIME SAVING…YET HURRIED, BIASED… NEGATIVE TYPECASTS…
NOR DID THEY (WAY BACK AT THE BEGINNING) HAVE A CLASS SYSTEM NOR SET UP MANY IN THEIR MIDST TO FOREVER SCAN (BUT NEVER EVER RELATE TO TO VERIFY) …
….THE “SUSPECTED” (KEPT A FAR OFF “SEEMING” JEZEBEL….CRAZYMATIC SUPPOSED WITCH)..Note had they FOUND a I SAMUEL 15;23 assessed’ a human real person .. involved in WITCHCRAFT….Back in the Book of Acts, prayer and fasting MIGHT AND POWER days.they probably would’ve been fearless…and simply bound up the demon and caste it out and respected the HUMAN PERSON who had been bound in torment and death by the mean accusative devil!). Yet that far back Ephesians First Church Time, preceded all the self pity, worry and sorry for self, deep mistrust in too many area sr ministries. NO those were the MUCH MORE RUGGED and MULTICULTURAL (Asia Minor, Turkey) pre historic leader ..seeming IMPOSSIBLE..times..yet one never truly knows.
YET..WAY LONG BEFORE THAT..APOSTLE PAUL MENTORED THE EARLY MULTICULTURAL FELLOWSHIPS ON “ABIDING RELATIONSHIPS IN ONE UNIFIED COMMUNITY” and
“TO KNOW THE LOVE OF CHRIST WHICH PASSES KNOWLEDGE..AND BE FILLED WITH THE FULLNESS OF GOD.” EPHESIANS 3:19
ONGOING CURIOUS…would we evaluate THE CHURCH as it is NOW… as fully”FILLED WITH THE FULLNESS OF MIGHTY LIVING GOD”
APOSTLE PAUL MENTORING EPHESIANS 4
COMMUNITY AND RELATIONSHIPS:
WALKING IT OUT
PART 1: EPHESIANS 4:1-3 THE IMPORTANCE OF ONGOING MULTICULTURAL, DIVERSE HUMBLE RELATIONSHIPS IN A REGIONAL UNDIVIDED, SPIRIT LED, COMMUNITY

EPHESIANS 4 …appears to be the HUB of CHRIST
FOLLOWING IN EVERY DAY LIFE…Both in LEADERSHIP and area GOODLY LAY
SEE LINK TO READ EPHESIANS 4 in its entirity:
https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Ephesians%204&version=KJV
I believe that in order to assess CHRISTIAN leader, office, lay, mature ongoing LIFE today, that we must get a grasp on HOW to train on it, HOW to resemble it. For as Apostle Paul has effected ME in the raising my awareness of the supernatural “GOD PLEASING) UNITY, SOCIETAL, MULTICULTURAL WITNESS of all of that he Body of Christ explains..
I submit it is a CRUX of eliminating all ministry, believer SINCERE ACCUSATION, OLD TIMEY LEVITICAL LAW LEGALISM and DEMEANING, DEVALUING, DIVISIVE and MEAN “RACISM, BIGOTRY, HISTORICAL BIAS STEREOTYPES and HIGH AND LOW “TYPES” IN MATURE CHRISTIAN EORR MINISTRY.
FOR THE READER: EORR “Equal Opportunity REAL RESPECT for the Office of EVERY HUMAN made in God’s Image (Psalm 139) Meaning leader, lay, non believer, ALL races, styles and cultures, all BELIEF SYSTEMS. (one doesn’t need to fully agree with another’s Bible theology or lack therefor, much less condone it…in order to RESPECT AND VALUE any fellow human person MADE IN GOD’S OWN IMAGE!”
And with that explained….let us BEGIN WITH THE HARMONIOUS, UNDIVIDED “TRANSFORMED” NON BIASED ” COMMUNITY” described by THE MENTOR, APOSTLE PAUL in BOOK OF EPHESIANS 4..which will take part by part until I finish the entire CHAPTER.
The CHURCH OF EPHESUS, BIBLE CHAPTER 4….Apostle Paul’s Admonition and Cross True Christian Believing Church, Ministry Cross Multicultural …”SENT OFFICE MESSENGER”area, region, n and worldwide GLOBAL leadership training:
1. I therefore, the prisoner of the Lord, beseech you that ye walk worthy of the vocation wherewith ye are called,
– “The prisoner of the Lord” …the voice of the chief apostle, from an humble, FOS (Fellowship of His Sufferings) …with an Eternal Life “realistic” “in it for the long haul” LIFE perspective
2 With all lowliness and meekness, with long suffering, forbearing one another in love;
– “With all meekness and lowliness” This addresses RELATIONSHIP ISSUE and a HUMILITY ISSUE and it’s a Pauline maturity call for each UNIQUE individual to assume personal responsibility to SELF MONITOR, to continually SELF EVALUATE in order to turn to the LORD in each of their RELATIONSHIPS ..
AND…we need to enlist his GALATIANS 5:22-23 “peaceful fruits of God’s Holy Spirit” to have the FAITH and DETERMINATION to ongoing do that.
3 “Endeavoring to keep the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace.”
– “endeavoring” to keep” “the UNITY”.(ENDEAVORING: attempting, we will need to WORK on doing this)..”in the bond of” (winsome, humble, forgiving, non racist, biased INDIVIDUAL, TRIBLE, GROUP, FELLOWSHIP…WHOLE COMMUNITY- GOD’S ENABLED, GRACED..”…PEACE”
- This would even mean that each Born again believer, lay and elder, will continually assume mature responsibility to do that, to be that..especially as tests, trials and personality human flaws, testings, even demonic spiritual warfare, ongoing “human, ministry, family, personal, society spiritual warfare will forever ongoing RISE UP.”
– I would like to submit this as a NOW… KEY TRAINING POINT
APOSTLE PAUL CONFIRMING POINTS:
MAIN POINT: EPHESIANS 4:1-3 ALIGNS WITH/ BEARS A SECOND WITNESS TO CONFIRMS PAUL’S TRAINING EPHESIANS 2:14,
“He is our peace who has broken down every wall of partition, to make us both ONE” (if we know about that)
– EPHESIANS 5:21 “Mutual submission in the (holy/humble) fear of the Lord” (family, wedded spouses, fellowship, area ministry, CROSS BODY EPHESIANS 4 WALKING IT OUT COMMUNITY)
– FROM TD…”IN THE LAST DAYS ETHNOS WILL RISE AGAINST ETHNOS” (“Relationships will rise against relationships”… EVEN in God’s houses, families, ministries, various faith filled cultures)
OTHER HOLY BIBLE VERSES.. SIMILAR NON APOSTLE PAUL “UNITY” “NO DIVISION” VERSES: PSALM 133, HERO ROLE MODELING ABIDING JAMES 3:17, OVERCOMING “HIM” THE MEAN ACCUSER REVELATION 12:7-11.
TCL ABIDING RELATIONSHIP THEOLOGY
www.relationshptheology.com
– REAL EQUIPPING REASONS
- TO TRAIN AS A “EORR RELATIONSHIP LIFE STANDARD”..JAMES 3:17 TRAINING TO HERO ROLE MODEL” THE WISDOM THAT COMES FROM ABOVE” in ALL BORN AGAIN, SAVED FAMILY, MINISTRY, COMMUNITY, MARRIAGE, CULTURE “ONGOING RELATIONSHIPS”…
- ENDURING, ABIDING JAMES 3:17 “the wisdom that comes from above is first of all PURE..PEACEABLE, EASILY ENTREATED..FULL OF MERCY..AND GOOD FRUITS (Galatians 5:22-23 Pauline “fruits of the Spirit”) WITHOUT PARTIALITY..WITHOUT HYPOCRISY”
THE WHY…MINISTRY PLEASE SELAH
THIS IS A MAIN POINT(as so much fellowship training it about “THINGS” “GETTING STUFF”….meaning the MAIN TRAINING since the 1980’s has been about YOU and ME…GETTING “OUR NEEDS” “OUR DREAMS’ ” OUR MINISTRY” ..and understanding, developing OUR SPIRITUAL, NATURAL GOALS and HOW TO DO THIS OR THAT OR MOVE IN THE HOLY SPIRIT, etc)
HOWEVER I would submit that LIKE NEVER BEFORE IN HISTORY has there been so much ongoing RELATIONSHIP MAYHEM, SIN OF LOSS OF SELF CONTROL, OF GOSSIP AND MURDER, CONTROL AND “EVIL VILE USING” OF HUMAN PERSONS FOR PERVERSE MONEY MAKING. (TRAFFICKING, PORN, SLAVERY, SYSTEMIC OPPRESSION, DENIAL OF DEEP JUSTICE , PROFITING OFF OF OTHER HUMAN’S ADDICTIONS, .too many dark things to mention)
“THE LOSS OF HUMAN DEEP VALUE AND MOST RELATIONSHIP RESPECT” is very troubling and EXTREME.
YET, BACK TO THE FELLOWSHIP CHRISTIAN
REPRESENTATIONS ....BASED ON AN HISTORICAL 2
CHRONICLES 7:14 PERSPECTIVE..
MEANING that “GOD’S CHURCH” is implied as being well
kept SECRET to the preservation of ANY NATION..then
please consider the (non religious right)following:
- THE IMMATURE EMOTIONALLY UNSAFE RISE IN MIXTURE, FRIENDLY FIRE USA “DOWN TRODDEN, POOR OLD US” …ACCUSER, LEGALISTIC PHARISEE FELLOWSHIPS
- However so are the vast numbers of APOSTLE PAUL 2 TIMOTHY 3:1-5 AND I TIMOTHY 6:5 “From such turn away FRIENDLY FIRE, non trustworthy, RELATIONSHIP DISRESPECTING, “BIG I, LITTLE YOU” “”certain TYPES, AGES, RACES, SIZES, PREFERRED MINISTRY STYLES” devalued, opposed, disrespected, TYPECAST, STEREOTYPED and OBJECTIFIED..all under the GUISE OF “SELF GUARDING “OUR” MINISTRY TURF”
-
BRUTE, CULTISH “GOOD OLE BOYS WILL BE (MINISTRY LEADERSHIP PLAYTIME) BOYS…IS NOT LISTED AMONG THE GALATIANS 5:22-23 ACCEPTED FIRST CHURCH”FRUITS” OF THE HOLY SPIRIT….
-
……FOR RATHER IT RESEMBLES I SAMUEL ELI, STAFF MINISTERS HOPHNI, PHINEAS ..PRIOR TO THE ICHABOD. **
** which MAY be compared ..at least in part..to the Mega GOD’s Old Testament Type of ME TOO movement…. - THE “SAVED CHRISTIAN” .. BIG OLE (or quite YOUNG) BOY ABOVE…TO AVOID FORMING MINISTRY STEREOTYPES..THE T EXPLAINS WHAT SHE MEANS.. (it’s akin to an often SUBTLE, and/or FORMIDABLE “counterfeit “spirit” (presence, sly energy) possibly of “use of false governing”control of GOD’S HOLY SPIRIT ANOINTING ” Also it usually also is accompanied by a biased achievement, type of DEMAS noticeable character ” rude fruit”
MENTORING FROM THE CHIEF APOSTLE PAUL..
…contrasted to EPHESIANS 4 which the leader reader just
read.
APOSTLE PAUL has 3 gathering commands, ministry admonitions:
1. Christian leader commands ONE Hebrews 10:25″ to not forsake fellowshipping with the saints”
BUT TWO to FROM SUCH TURN AWAY AND AVOID…
See those 2 below..
FIRST: 2 TIMOTHY 3:1-5 FROM SUCH TURN AWAY COMMANDED MINISTRY, UNTRUSTWORTHY “ANTI – UNIFIED CHRISTIAN COMMUNITY”
(PS NOTE THIS DESCRIBES MINISTRY BIG AND SMALL…DISTRESSING RELATIONSHIP ISSUES)
3 This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come.
2 For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy,
3 Without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good,
4 Traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God;
5 Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away.
SECOND: 1 TIMOTHY 6:5 (again RELATIONSHIP and with it a TEMPORAL, CARNAL PERSPECTIVE) 5 Perverse disputings of men of corrupt minds, and destitute of the truth, supposing that gain is godliness: from such withdraw thyself.
PLEASE NOTE THAT THE GOAL FOR THE “HARMONIOUS, DIVERSE, PEACEFUL, RESPECTING, TRUSTWORTHY,EMOTIONALLY HEALTHY “ONE COMMUNITY IS mentioned later in EPHESIANS 4 and I will get there…
As my MAIN APOSTLE PAUL MENTORING..is to see COMMUNITY TRANSFORMATION… ONGOING GOAL which EFFECTS THE AREA SECULAR SOCIETY
I REPEAT..and this will be discussed when I get down to this later in EPHESIANS 4. (the BODY will be a secular WITNESS to CHRIST)
THE CHRISTIAN UNIFIED DIVERSE TRANSFORMED “RELATIONSHIP RESPECTFUL ” AND “ALL KINDS OF SECULAR RELATIONSHIPS..FULLY READY “EORR EPHESIANS 4:1-3 BODY” IS ALSO AKIN TO:
– IT MAY BE COMPARED WITH the GODLY REMNANT”
– ALSO THE OVERCOMING CHURCH OF PHILADELPHIA Revelation Chapter 3 THE EORR BROTHERLY, MOTHERLY LOVE WALK TRUE CHURCH on display…
– which may be also regarded “THE BRIDE OF CHRIST which is fully prepared and eagerly awaiting JESUS SOON RETURN”.
COMING NEXT: COMMON DOCTRINE WHICH DOES NOT ALLOW TRUE PEACEFUL CHRISTIAN BODY DIVISION… HUMAN FAULT FINDING..TALE BEARING… OTHER COMPARING…. ACCUSER, TRIBAL LEGALISM
HIS PEACE and Blessings. Pastor Taveau
