* Luís Alberto Alves Often members do not realize how hard it is to keep a church running smoothly. They are important people in the gear of this work that Jesus Christ has placed in our hands to save souls that Satan tries at all costs drag to hell. The problem starts when the workers go to regard this letter as a weight. Something bad. Few realize that Jesus came to this world to serve us and not for us to serve you. But most of the Christians misunderstand this attitude of our master. They throw everything in the back of the pastor. In addition to spiritual, it must unfold to find solutions to something material. In certain denominations, the pastor needs to think twice before to warn the member. He can understand the conversation wrong and the solution turns strife. Few servants interested in doing the work of God without seeking any benefit. Only for love, the caring for the souls threatened by darkness. A mercantilist gospel, most think only in blessings, how much money you can put into the account, leaving Jesus Christ aside. * Luís Alberto Alves is pastor
* Luís Alberto Alves In the 21st century evangelical churches praise are in many styles. Not restricted to the Blues, as the names of the southern United States. Now has several songs in rhythm of Rock, Soul, Funk, RAP, MPB, Bossa Nova, Forro and Heavy Metal. The Puritans were with nerves on edge. Since not admit praise out of the arrangements in Blues. They seem to have never had contact with the typical songs of Israel, whose pace is completely different from practiced here in the West. Within the order and decency, Jesus Christ wishes only to be sincere praise, a worship that reaches the heavens. The letter needs to be well centered. You can not conflict with the Holy Scriptures. Otherwise it's something the world. When something is grounded in the rock. The praise is beautiful, regardless of style. They are musical works that come from the heart, seeking only to please the Lord. Showing our complete dependence on the heavenly Father, who withdrew in the mud. * Luís Alberto Alves is pastor
* Luís Alberto Alves When we read 2 Peter 2: 17-22, Jesus uses the disciple Peter to say, from verse 20 that ... "So if, after they have escaped the pollutions of the world through the knowledge of the Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, is entangled again and are overcome, the latter end is worse than the first. " Then the Lord continues: "For better for them had never known the way of justice than, after meeting him, volverem back, departing from the holy commandment delivered to them." With them came the saying true adage: "The dog returns to his own vomit; and the nut back to wallowing in the mire. " In these words, Jesus Christ makes it clear that the person who met his love, lived his commandments, enjoyed his blessings and decided to return to the old life, full of sin and filth, it was better not to have known him. It should be the place where he could never dare leave. This is a clear sign that God lost patience. There are people who refuse to continue in the presence of the Lord. Themselves ask that fall on their lives the Lord's anger. Sadly, this happens, especially these days. * Luís Alberto Alves is pastor
* Luís Alberto Alves Today it is hard to look at women, especially young people, within the evangelical churches, and imagine that they are Christians. The behavior is identical to the world. The clothes mimic those used by prostitutes in luxury brothels to lure customers to their beds. The makeup, nothing discreet, is another hallmark of those women who do not exude the fragrance of Christ, but the stench of Satan and his demons. Everything is done to attract attention during the services. When you kneel to pray is visible appear the underwear. The language is similar or worse than women lost in the world. When advised by pastors or pastors rebel. They say that no one is allowed to give hints. They wear clothes they see fit. Everything in Jazabel costume. This type of behavior shows that Jezebel continues surfing in large waves in most evangelical churches around the world. As pursued Elijah continues today in the wake of the pastors who seek to guide the flock in the Lord's path of righteousness. * Luís Alberto Alves is pastor
* Luís Alberto Alves Your mind is renewed in Christ Jesus or still dirty, with the same uncleanness from the time of his conversion? And your thoughts? Are life or death? Jealous of another's win or vibrates with the joy of brother who managed to turn things around? If you fit the above situations, your mind needs renovation and urgently. Because you're still the old creature day he met Jesus Christ, but did not allow the master opened his eyes to see his Kingdom. Some people are in the churches just doing number. No added quality, only brought more problems. They are rebellious and only open his mouth to destructive criticism. Never do anything for the Kingdom of God, only speak evil. When Jesus told us through the Apostle John, that He makes all things new, this word is included a new mind. We can not continue with defeat and evil thoughts. We need to fill in the abundant life offered by God. * Luís Alberto Alves is pastor
* Luís Alberto Alves Sin is tasty and seductive. Use pretty packaging to remove the Christian presence. Deceives and intoxicates the senses. A person can not even reason to jump out of the boat used by Satan aiming to take the man or woman the abyss. What man in his right mind would venture spend a night lying next to a luxury prostitute to, coveted by everyone? He entered the room, will sign the passport bound for hell, leaving the gospel of Jesus Christ aside and away. also quote the seductive power of money. Imagine someone organized crime to search offering great fortune just for you to keep for a few days or months several bundles of money, which added reach millions. Therefore the Christian must seek spiritual coating much prayer and fasting. Divert all you have bad appearance. Do not try to measure strength with Satan and his demons. Not every Christian is able to resist the seduction attacks. * Luís Alberto Alves is pastor
* Luís Alberto Alves Faith Christian life is filled with a lot of fighting. As it is written in the letter to the Ephesians, which says that our struggle is not against blood, but against principalities, powers, rulers spirits and forces of evil that dwell in the heavenly places. But some people think that being part of the Lord's Army is only refreshment. Never go into battle. It is only in the hands of pastors and intercession groups. I inform you that the devil will attack you, for you today a part of the Light. And to win the phalanxes of demons only with much prayer and fasting, and righteously, ignoring all temptations. You need to focus only on the Lord, not seeing the lentil dishes offered by Satan to try to remove him from the goal. From the moment you accepted Jesus Christ as Lord of your life, automatically enlisted in the Army of God. Do not worry that he will empower you. Put in your hands the spiritual weapons to defeat any kind of demon. Just a lot of faith. * Luís Alberto Alves is pastor
* Luís Alberto Alves The 21-century Christians do not walk, they fly. Pressure Jesus Christ all the time to obtain blessings. They ignore their words and part to the charges. Everything is yesterday. They lost patience with the existing calm in the heart of the Holy Spirit. From teens to young people, the rush is the hallmark of this generation. Many pray quickly, perhaps not five minutes and leave the church saying that sought the Lord. Business is navigating the social networks and then watch films produced by emissaries of Satan. My question is this: your clock is aligned with that of Jesus Christ? Walk in tune with our teacher or are their vanities who deserve more attention? I would advise you hit your time with the Lord, if you want to get something from him. We can never leave the current century lead our lives. Let the vanities of this rotten world aside. Aim the abode in heaven, where inexistent weeping, gnashing of teeth, famine, death or any kind of difficulty that has plagued him on this earth. * Luís Alberto Alves is pastor
* Luís Alberto Alves I'm not the last lover. I like this and I can not wait to get the future when I will enjoy the glory reserved for me in Heaven. But when I hear the praises existing in most evangelical churches begin to feel retching. Several of them are lacking in unction, regardless of rhythm or musical style. They were written as self-help tools, all aimed at making money with copyright. Few worshipers. Much is hallucinating artist in quest for success. The arrangements are terrible. Rimas poor (brother rhyming with heart, rhyming with sky veil) are constant in these songs. Some flout biblical truths or distort the Word of God. Today is no longer a secret that the Gospel Music genre is best-selling CDs in the world. To complicate matters, these false worshipers charge millionaires paychecks for presentations of 2 hours. Require several perks such as accommodation in 5-star hotels and the brothers after the show (this is what they do) can not even talk to any of them. All pure trade. * Luís Alberto Alves is pastor
* Luís Alberto Alves In some large evangelical churches, tithing value works as a gag against the pastor. They are usually members of good purchasing power and their tithes and offerings help keep the green light the church accounts. It is the censorship of the Word of God. It is a controversial topic that few pastors address. They prefer to remain silent. Unfortunately this rule happens in various ministries, especially the very road time. That is the reason for the cooling of the faith enlivened several brothers. This type of tithing just spreading the bad example to the flock. Is sin and can not undergo any kind of warning, because threatens to leave the ministry. Between staying without his money and accept spending his hand on his head, the second option is the choice of pastor. But no one deceives God. He does not share this filth, so common in the evangelical church. The Christian must understand that your money does not buy place in heaven. We should never use the tithe as currency trading with Jesus Christ. * Luís Alberto Alves is pastor
* Luís Alberto Alves This week I had the proof that Satan continues in order to settle our children and adolescents. We decided to put in place a strong campaign of prayer for them, which I witnessed left me dumbfounded. Some of them attacked by demons, who suggested them to run away from home and practice various kinds of sins. Many evangelical denominations do not care about children and young people, believe that problems remain far from this type of member. That is, their life is only joy. Wrong: suffer from the problems faced by parents, especially marital fights. The girls are bombarded by impositora society a certain standard of behavior and beauty. At school, they end up broken down by accepting Jesus Christ as savior. The fact of being far from cliques and away from the influences of the world is another torment. Brethren, seek to pray for their children and the other people you know within and outside the church. The enemy tries at all costs to settle our children and adolescents. Only through prayer can we win this battle. Otherwise, increase the druggies battalion and criminals on the streets. Most of young people. * Luís Alberto Alves is pastor
* Luís Alberto Alves The 21st Century Christian does not like to fight. Not to pray or fast, just the refreshment provided by blessings. Most go to church only on Sundays. Meet a ritual, as do Catholics at Mass. When we call all to pray for a certain period, it is pack war. Members look in reproving the idea. After all we will disrupt the novel 21h, or even the number who watch the cable channels. Fight should be in the hands of the shepherds. They need to grate the church. Fast, pray, go up to the mountains, participate in vigils and what you can do for these people. It is the typical child behavior, whose parents do everything. Because of that we do not view the move of God as in the 19th century, provided by J.D. Moody or even on Azusa Street in Los Angeles. Only sparks because of a gospel only based on gross theology of prosperity. * Luís Alberto Alves is pastor
* Luís Alberto Alves In Psalm 139 it is written that God already knew us even before we generated in the womb of our mother. I am example. On October 6, 1981, Monday a teenage friend died assassinated while returning home. At that time, God did not allow me to watch the last class at school where he was high school. Before I returned home. Shortly after midnight I received the tragic news of the murder. After 35 years, I come to mind the designs of Jesus Christ. The Lord knew that decades later I would be converted, would be family man married to a beautiful and wonderful wife. He would preach the gospel and win souls for the Kingdom. Anyway eventually rescued from the sea mud of sin where I got stuck many years. They reflect my brothers. The plans of Jesus Christ, no one can stop. Neither Satan and his demons. Everything will be fulfilled, even after several years. That bullet that pierced the skull of my friend that night was planned to destroy my brain. God did not allow and today I am here writing these words, for the love of Jesus soften your heart. * Luís Alberto Alves is pastor
* Luís Alberto Alves Today most Christians spend little time in prayer. Or when they raise make this gesture so beautiful and important in maintaining faith. The deal is to dive deep into the social networks. Before speaking a good day to husband or wife, the business is looking at the messages on WhatsApp. This is our world. The important thing is to earn more money, buy luxury cars, fill the wardrobe of clothes that will never use regularly. The same applies to the mountain of shoes that have just thrown away because they went out of fashion. Few within the evangelical churches, people who love to pray. They hate to hear any preaching on this subject. They throw the bomb on the pastor. He has a duty to put the members in prayer. Yes, but the Christian must collaborate. Cancer vanity invaded the services. The fear of the Lord ceased to exist in different denominations. The public is interested in knowing the lives of others. Others use the services to submit new or even dress or suit car purchased provision. * Luís Alberto Alves is pastor
* Luís Alberto Alves As Pentecostal church pastor like to hear choruses quickened, which until 20 years ago still sang during services. Compounds simple chords, using few instruments (guitar, bass, drums) could make the heavenly oil down on the church. But the times set aside those praises. Modern stamped as the grimaces, poor Christian music, suburbs resident. They brought the world into the evangelical churches. Pulpits turned stage shows, where the Holy Spirit has lost the place to operate. Jesus Christ, unlike the majority of theologians, was a simple man. He did not bother to invent the wheel. He preached the rice and beans. Do not waste time with niceties like some pastors act today. highly value the superfluous aside holiness. In this article I chose some old choruses that were the flagship of a church known in Brazil as the praying church. Present in 136 countries, to Oceania in its world headquarters, worshipers pray 24 hours. Day or night, someone is on his knees. I hope you like my brothers and revive. * Luís Alberto Alves is pastor
