I will not put his name out there because I am trying with great difficulty to refrain from that. But if you PM me I will privately disclose their identity. He even made reference to another commentator who I have tremendous respect for that
Not only has he entered the garment industry he also caters to all you caffeine addicts with his logo on your coffee mug. I am being a little extreme there. Nonetheless it exists along with a ladies tote-bag with, you guessed it, his logo on it. I bet he doesn't follow YahShua's example if you ask him to donate his hoodies.
Luke 3:11 He answereth and saith unto them, He that hath two coats, let him impart to him that hath none; and he that hath meat, let him do likewise.
I bet you good money he won't do that...lest you hand over that credit card number. I mean a t-shirt maybe ? A whole selection with color after color and style after style. I say "Brother you are out to profit on the "Word" ? I assume if this is successful there will be other products to follow. Your true vision has blurred
if indeed you started out pure of heart and ministering to the flock for your reward in Heaven
Matt 15:7-8 Ye hypocrites, well did Esaias prophesy of you, saying, :8) This people draweth nigh unto me with their mouth, and honoureth me with their lips; but their heart is far from me.
Adam Clarke writes in his commentary...
Clarke - Matthew 15:7
Verse 7. Hypocrites, well did Isaiah prophesy of you] In every place where the proper names of the Old Testament occur, in the New, the same mode of orthography should be followed: I therefore write Isaiah with the Hebrew, not Esaias, with the Greek. This prophecy is found Isa 29:13. Our blessed Lord unmasks these hypocrites; and we may observe that, when a hypocrite is found out, he should be exposed to all; this may lead to his salvation: if he be permitted to retain his falsely acquired character, how can he escape perdition!
John Gill in his Exposition of the Whole Bible says...
Gill - Matthew 15:8
This people draweth nigh unto me with their mouth,.... The preface to these words, or the form in which they are introduced by the prophet; "wherefore the Lord said", is left out in this citation, being unnecessary here, though of the greatest importance there; partly to show, that what was about to be said, was not the prophet's own words, but the words of the Lord, of which the Jews in Christ's time made no doubt; and partly to give a reason why that judicial blindness, threatened in the context, should be inflicted on them, which is no part of Christ's design here; but which is only to show, that the description here given exactly agrees with them, and so proves, and confirms the character he gives of them as hypocrites. They approached the ordinances of God, and drew nigh to him, and attended him in outward worship; they prayed unto him publicly, and constantly, in the streets, in the synagogues, and temple, and with much seeming devotion and sanctity:
and honoureth me with their lips: they owned him to be their creator and preserver; they made their boast of him, and of their knowledge of him, as the one only living, and true God, and as the God of Israel; they brought their sacrifices of praise and thanksgiving, even the fruit of their lips, unto him, for their many peculiar mercies, privileges, and favours, as a nation, church, and people, and with much seeming sincerity and affection.
But their heart is far from me; they had no true love to God, nor faith in him, nor fear of him; they were not at all concerned for his presence with them, or for communion with him, or for his honour and glory; their hearts were in the world, and after their covetousness; they made religion a tool to their secular purposes, supposing gain to be godliness; sought the applause of men, and contented themselves with bodily exercise; having no regard to internal religion, powerful godliness, or where their hearts were, so be it, their bodies were presented to God in public worship; and what they did it was to be seen and approved of men, not caring what the searcher of hearts knew concerning them, or what he required of them.
And he said it well ! Welcome to the Remnant of Israel Ministry
