1Co 9:25 And every man that striveth for the mastery is temperate in all things. Now they do it to obtain a corruptible crown; but we an incorruptible. 1Co 9:26 I therefore so run, not as uncertainly; so fight I, not as one that beateth the air: 1Co 9:27 But I keep under my body, and bring it into subjection: lest that by any means, when I have preached to others, I myself should be a castaway. ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b3FfzEbQ0kM

Eph 1:3 Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who hath blessed us with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ.
Mission report from Bro. James Murphy, for the 4th quarter 2023.
Friends, The Lord has blessed us, in many ways in the last three months. As I said, last time, this is a growing work and as some might say be careful what you ask for. I asked for followers and the Lord has sent followers. When I wrote last time, I had around 172 friends on my Facebook page, and sometimes I get a friend request or two, on Oct 10, at 8AM, I had 700+ friend requests, that night by 8PM, it was 1000+, two nights later it was 2500+ friend requests, and even after going through them and only adding a few and removing most, on Oct 20, I had 1000+ friends, with 1000+ friend requests, at the end of the year, I now have 1,900+ friends on Facebook from all over the world (30 states, 40 countries), and still 1000+ friend requests.
The number of friends added on Facebook, also gave me up to 150+ messages at one point, with over 50 most days now. I still don't have the 100+ subscribers needed on YouTube, but the number of followers is up on all pages, I will give numbers bellow.
I would like to thank New Zion Baptist church for the love offering, for it came just when it was needed most and made it so we could get new tires on our family van. I had many opportunities to witness to people the last three months and was also asked to preach at Richland Missionary Baptist church at the end of the year.
I pray that the Lord Jesus Christ will bless everyone in the new year and help us to send the Gospel out to this lost and dying world.

1123 / Errors of the 12th Century.
1123 / "Infallibility" of the pope. (Part 3)
Eph 4:13 Till we all come in the unity of the faith, and of the knowledge of the Son of God, unto a perfect man, unto the measure of the stature of the fulness of Christ:
Eph 4:14 That we henceforth be no more children, tossed to and fro, and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the sleight of men, and cunning craftiness, whereby they lie in wait to deceive;
Eph 4:15 But speaking the truth in love, may grow up into him in all things, which is the head, even Christ:

1Co 9:23 And this I do for the gospel's sake, that I might be partaker thereof with you.
1Co 9:24 Know ye not that they which run in a race run all, but one receiveth the prize? So run, that ye may obtain.

1215 / (Part 2), it was expressly decreed to extirpate all "heresy" in canons 2 Condemnation of the doctrines of Joachim of Fiore and of Amalric of Bena, and 3 Procedure and penalties against heretics and their protectors. If those suspected of heresy should neglect to prove themselves innocent, they are excommunicated. If they continue in the excommunication for twelve months they are to be condemned as heretics. Princes are to be admonished to swear that they will banish all whom the church points out as heretics. This canon mandates that those pointed by the church as heretics shall be expelled by the secular authorities or they will be excommunicated if failing to do so.
They said, "Princes are to be admonished to swear that they will banish all whom the church points out as heretics."
Swear Not at All
Mat 5:33 Again, ye have heard that it hath been said by them of old time, Thou shalt not forswear thyself, but shalt perform unto the Lord thine oaths:
Mat 5:34 But I say unto you, Swear not at all; neither by heaven; for it is God's throne:
Mat 5:35 Nor by the earth; for it is his footstool: neither by Jerusalem; for it is the city of the great King.
Mat 5:36 Neither shalt thou swear by thy head, because thou canst not make one hair white or black.
Mat 5:37 But let your communication be, Yea, yea; Nay, nay: for whatsoever is more than these cometh of evil.
