Bishop's, Minister's, Deacon's and Disciple's: Part 1

Is your Bishop, Minister or Deacon a wolf in sheep’s clothing?

My name is Philip Norman Bradley. I am not religious and do not belong to any denomination. My body is the temple of the Holy Ghost, and my ministry, is to call people out from their prisons, captivity and deception by opening their eyes back to God.

Romans 10:17: So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.

Brothers and sisters and mothers in Christ, hear the words I speak through the Holy Ghost.

Acts 2:33: Therefore being by the right hand of God exalted, and having received of the Father the promise of the Holy Ghost, he hath shed forth this, which ye now see and hear.

Luke 4:18: The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he hath anointed me to preach the gospel to the poor; he hath sent me to heal the brokenhearted, to preach deliverance to the captives, and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty them that are bruised,

John 8:36: If the Son therefore shall make you free, ye shall be free indeed.

Galatians 5:1: Stand fast therefore in the liberty wherewith Christ hath made us free, and be not entangled again with the yoke of bondage.

Now I do not ask for money or wish to sell you anything to make merchandise out of you, and God forbid I want to make you join any church, but wish only that you will sit back with a cuppa and enjoy what the Lord has called me to do, and that is to be a testimony of the truth, in Jesus name, in the Holy ghost, by the Spirit of the word. Amen.

I don’t study Hebrew; I don’t study Greek.

I study old ye English, from the King James version Bible. The only uncorrupted word of God.

Thousands of unbelievers have received doctorates in old ye English written by Shakespeare, yet thousands of Christians who claim to have the Spirit, cannot even understand the old ye English King James Bible.

In your walk with God, our Lord and Saviour the first thing to check for is who have you joined hands with, who do you watch, listen to or read to teach you the doctrines of men. Personally, by the grace of God through the Holy Ghost I study the Spirit of God, which is the word of God. Eph 6:17

Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles?

Here I will speak the words of God to ye who are sincere, that seek the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and pray the Lord will reveal what fruit of the word of God your Bishops, Ministers and Deacons have to give you, or if they are cursed with thorns and thistles, men’s theologies, ideas, imaginations, traditions and every high thing that exhalteth itself against the knowledge of God.

Who are you following, men or God?

1 Corinthians 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.

Let us begin. 1 Peter 5:2-4: Feed the flock of God which is among you, taking the oversight thereof, not by constraint, but willingly; not for filthy lucre, but of a ready mind; Neither as being lords over God's heritage, but being examples to the flock. And when the chief Shepherd shall appear, ye shall receive a crown of glory that fadeth not away.

As Bishops and Ministers, Deacons or just a Disciple of Jesus Christ, we are to look after the flock of God that are among us, making sure they have enough Gas, Electric and food for themselves and family and most importantly that they and their children are taught the real word of God.

Proverbs 22:6: Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it.

Who is or has been training you and your children in the ways of God because if you or they have departed from the ways of God, it is a red flag that they and you were deceived and were or are not being trained correctly.

If you paid out thousands of monies to be trained at a college to become a doctor or nurse only to find out that that the college was not a real college and your knowledge becomes useless to enter into your chosen profession, how unhappy would you be?

So, today is the day for salvation, for you to make sure you receive the water and Spirit you need to enter the kingdom of heaven.

Our Father God in heaven is the Bishop of our souls, to Spiritually watch over us through His servants that walk in the Spirit of truth, with a capital ‘S’ in the King James Version, the uncorrupted word of God.

Eph 6:17: and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God: (Note the capital ‘S’ in the word Spirit.).

Romans 8:14: For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God.

Meaning: led by the word of God.

Like a shepherd with his sheep, who waters and feeds and shelters them, Jesus is our shepherd who ministers the things He knows what we need and ask for.

Matthew 20:28: Even as the Son of man came not to be ministered unto, but to minister,

Jesus came not to have you to do works for him but to minister unto you.

It is our faith in the words of Jesus that will get us into His kingdom, so be patient and if you follow His commandments he will love you.

Revelation 14:12: Here is the patience of the saints: here are they that keep the commandments of God, and the faith of Jesus.

It is all about the truth, the word of God. Nothing else matters but are blessings from God for being faithful and walking in godliness which is profitable unto all things.

Matthew 7:7-8 Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you: For every one that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened.

But it is how and where we ask that will give us the abundant life.

John 10:10: The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly.

Hebrews 10:38: Now the just shall live by faith:

We are meant to be the vessels of the Holy Ghost, Christ in you, the hope of glory, Jesus, who will perform a good work in you, to empower you by His enabling grace to minister unto you, the word of faith.

1 Corinthians 4:20: For the kingdom of God is not in word, but in power.

Acts 4:33: And with great power gave the apostles witness of the resurrection of the Lord Jesus: and great grace was upon them all.

2 Corinthians 5:7: (For we walk by faith, not by sight:)

Why do I remind you of these things? So you can identify if you are walking in darkness, deception, being deceived so you can turn back to the living God by faith alone.

1 Timothy 4:6: If thou put the brethren in remembrance of these things, thou shalt be a good minister of Jesus Christ,

Acts 26:18: To open their eyes, and to turn them from darkness to light, and from the power of Satan unto God, that they may receive forgiveness of sins, and inheritance among them which are sanctified by faith that is in me.

I am here only to shine the light and power of God in the faithful.

Ephesians 5:13: But all things that are reproved are made manifest by the light: for whatsoever doth make manifest is light.

There are, they say over two billion Christians in the world, but they are weak, powerless to stop the evil in the world, to have authority by the word of God, to keep their children from the evils of this world. Christians, are powerless, powerless, powerless. How come? Because they have been taught the word of men not of God.

Matthew 7:29: For he taught them as one having authority, and not as the scribes.

Matthew 24:3-8: And as he sat upon the mount of Olives, the disciples came unto him privately, saying, Tell us, when shall these things be? and what shall be the sign of thy coming, and of the end of the world? And Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that no man deceive you. For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many.

Matthew 22:14: For many are called, but few are chosen.

Are you in being deceived?

Matthew 7:14: Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it.

Matthew 22:14: For many are called, but few are chosen.

How well do you know the word of God? If you do not know the word of God well enough, how can you discern truth from error?

1 John 4:6: We are of God: he that knoweth God heareth us; he that is not of God heareth not us. Hereby know we the spirit of truth, and the spirit of error.

If you do not understand God’s word, then how will you know if you are being deceived?

2 Corinthians 6:17,18: Wherefore come out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord, and touch not the unclean thing; and I will receive you. And will be a Father unto you, and ye shall be my sons and daughters, saith the Lord Almighty.

Do you want to be sons and daughters of our Father God in heaven above or do you want to sleep with the daughters of men in religions, denominations, churches and ministries, principalities made with man’s hands. Towers of Bable, trapped by the powers of satan and the rulers of the darkness, the doctrines of men. In temples, idols made out of stone and wood. Their vanities that men have created in vain, where believers speak corruptible words not knowing that they are actually blaspheming the name of God in vain, in their vanities, by the works of the devil. Peoples that God does not dwell in, because they have been made with man’s hands, not born of God.

1 Peter 1:23: Being born again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, by the word of God, which liveth and abideth for ever.

1 John 3:8: For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that he might destroy the works of the devil.

2 Corinthians 6:16-18: And what agreement hath the temple of God with idols? for ye are the temple of the living God; as God hath said, I will dwell in them, and walk in them; and I will be their God, and they shall be my people. Wherefore come out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord, and touch not the unclean thing; and I will receive you.

Genesis 6:2-4: That the sons of God saw the daughters of men that they were fair; and they took them wives of all which they chose. And the Lord said, My spirit shall not always strive with man,

(Note: The word Giant in the KJv bible means Bully.) And there were bullies in those days and after the flood, and very much today.

Acts 7:48: Howbeit the most High dwelleth not in temples made with hands; as saith the prophet,

Acts 17:24: God that made the world and all things therein, seeing that he is Lord of heaven and earth, dwelleth not in temples made with hands;

Hebrews 10:25: Not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as the manner of some is; but exhorting one another: and so much the more, as ye see the day approaching.

Paul here was speaking to those who were delivered out of satans power, false religions that seek your money, and were staying home doing nothing for the church of Christ, so Paul was writing to them to encourage them to not stay home but go out and visit the fatherless and widows and keep exhorting one another as we wait for the coming of our Lord and God, Jesus Christ.

James 1:27: Pure religion and undefiled before God and the Father is this, To visit the fatherless and widows in their affliction, and to keep himself unspotted from the world.

Give your tithes and gift offerings to those who need help.

We have all gone astray and are trapped in our strong holds.

2 Corinthians 10:4-6: (For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strong holds;) Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ; And having in a readiness to revenge all disobedience, when your obedience is fulfilled.

Repent means to turn to… Hebrews 10:20-25: By a new and living way, which he hath consecrated for us, through the veil, that is to say, his flesh; And having an high priest over the house of God; Let us draw near with a true heart in full assurance of faith, having our hearts sprinkled from an evil conscience, and our bodies washed with pure water. Let us hold fast the profession of our faith without wavering; (for he is faithful that promised;) And let us consider one another to provoke unto love and to good works: Not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as the manner of some is; but exhorting one another: and so much the more, as ye see the day approaching.

1 Peter 2:25: For ye were as sheep going astray; but are now returned unto the Shepherd and Bishop of your souls.

And let us consider one another to provoke unto love…

They say, there are over 30,000 Christian confused religions, denominations, churches and ministries that have descriptions of their gods with lower ‘g’, in their articles of faith, who despise one another, distrust one another and dislike one another, what does God say about this?

1 Corinthians 14:33: For God is not the author of confusion, but of peace, as in all churches of the saints.

Hebrews 12:14: Follow peace with all men, and holiness, without which no man shall see the Lord:

Hebrews 10:38: Now the just shall live by faith: but if any man draw back, my soul shall have no pleasure in him.

A congregation is an example of its leaders, ministers etc. The followers of Jesus are different, peculiar to the rest of the world, as they are conformed to the image of His dear Son.

Romans 8:29: For whom he did foreknow, he also did predestinate to be conformed to the image of his Son, that he might be the firstborn among many brethren.

1 Peter 2:9: But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people; that ye should shew forth the praises of him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvellous light;

2 Corinthians 5:17: Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new.

God has called us by His enabling and empowerment of His grace to be free Bishops, Minister and followers, disciples, to live in His Kingdom today, The kingdom of God is within you, to watch over His flock, to minister and feed His flock while we wait for His return. So, is your Bishop, Minister, Deacon called of God? Do you know their fruit? Are you in bondage to them and their iniquities? Remember satan can be nice too, after all he did offer all the kingdoms of the world to Jesus, if Jesus would bow down to him.

Exodus 20:2: I am the Lord thy God, which have brought thee out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage.

Exodus 20:5: Thou shalt not bow down thyself to them, nor serve them: for I the Lord thy God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation of them that hate me;

1 John 4:1: Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world. (Note the word spirits is written with a lower ‘s’. Meaning the spirits of the people.)

What does it mean to be a Bishop of God

1 Timothy 3:1-5: This is a true saying, if a man desire the office of a bishop, he desireth a good work. A bishop then must be blameless, the husband of one wife, vigilant, sober, of good behaviour, given to hospitality, apt to teach; Not given to wine, no striker, not greedy of filthy lucre; but patient, not a brawler, not covetous; One that ruleth well his own house, having his children in subjection with all gravity; (For if a man know not how to rule his own house, how shall he take care of the church of God?)

Like milk and coffee, once mixed together you can not separate. So, a Bishop and all believers must have only one wife.

Luke 16:18: Whosoever putteth away his wife, and marrieth another, committeth adultery: and whosoever marrieth her that is put away from her husband committeth adultery.

1 Corinthians 6:9: Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind,

If you find yourself married while you or your partners X marred partner are still alive, you must devoice immediately, or wait, and the first to pass away will not enter into God’s kingdom, and if God gives repentance, as adultery is one of the sins that you live in 24/7.

2 Timothy 2:25: In meekness instructing those that oppose themselves; if God peradventure will give them repentance to the acknowledging of the truth;

It is up to God to see if your heart is right with Him, by obeying His commandments.

A Bishop is to watch over the flock that he has been given by God, to obey the word of God and make sure others do not enter with another doctrine or chose to not obey the word of God. Bishops will be held accountable to God if they do not do their job correctly, even end up in the lake of fire because he should have known how to be a Bishope by the gift of the Holy Ghost and not be a deceiver. After all if you are not good at your job on earth, you will get the sack. A bishop is to watch over Spiritually by the word of God to keep satan at bay in and around the family of God, by the power of the word in our life, by the faith of Jesus, in Him. I am what I am:

1 Corinthians 15:10: But by the grace of God I am what I am: and his grace which was bestowed upon me was not in vain; but I laboured more abundantly than they all: yet not I, but the grace of God which was with me.

Do you minister to your Minister or does he minister to you?

Minister are to serve the saints, not sinners who worship and serve the creature more than the creator. Romans 1:25.

Matthew 20:26-28: But it shall not be so among you: but whosoever will be great among you, let him be your minister; And whosoever will be chief among you, let him be your servant: Even as the Son of man came not to be ministered unto, but to minister, and to give his life a ransom for many.

Give your life to minister to your brethren not to men. Do they have enough Gas, Electric, food? God did not deliver His church to throw your money away in building Towers of Bable where men will make you, that God will not dwell in temples made with mans hands.

1 Timothy 6:10: For the love of money is the root of all evil: which while some coveted after, they have erred from the faith, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows.

When you hand over your tithes and offerings to religions, denominations, churches and ministries, towers of Bable three things will happen.

First, you will lose your money.

Secondly, you will receive nothing from God.

Thirdly, God will hold you to account for funding satans deceptions.

Fourthly, you will not enter Jesus’ fathers Kingdom.

The tithes and gift offerings are for the church, not a brick and wood idol most of the time building.

1 Corinthians 16:1: Now concerning the collection for the saints, as I have given order to the churches of Galatia, even so do ye.

Also while we are at it.

2 Peter 2:1-3: But there were false prophets also among the people, even as there shall be false teachers among you, who privily shall bring in damnable heresies, even denying the Lord that bought them, and bring upon themselves swift destruction. And many shall follow their pernicious ways; by reason of whom the way of truth shall be evil spoken of. And through covetousness shall they with feigned words make merchandise of you: whose judgment now of a long time lingereth not, and their damnation slumbereth not.

Matthew 23:4: For they bind heavy burdens and grievous to be borne, and lay them on men's shoulders; but they themselves will not move them with one of their fingers.

Matthew 11:28-30: Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your
