00:00:00 Introduction to Kingdom of God Partnership
Welcome to Victorious Faith. I’m Cherri Campbell. Today we are going to continue our study in the lesson Kingdom of God Partnership. So join me now for the continuation of this lesson, Kingdom of God Partnership. And so it is for every Christian to be involved in Kingdom of God Partnership. And in the ministry of giving, it is a ministry available to every Christian. And as we will see in a later lesson, the law of sowing and reaping, how you will receive your needs met through the kingdom of God system is through sowing and reaping. So now let’s look at one more description of who should be involved in kingdom of God partnership. we have more instruction in the word of God in the New Testament about who is supposed to be involved in kingdom of God partnership. And we see this in Galatians chapter six, verse six, the King James version says, let him that is taught in the word communicate unto him that teaches and in all good things. The New King James Version says, let him who is taught the word share in all good things with him who teaches. The New International Version says, anyone who receives instruction in the word must share all good things with his instructor. And the basic Bible in English says, but let him who gets teaching in the word give a part in all good things to to his teacher in all good things and all the good things that he has and that he receives share with his teacher. Now let’s look at that word in the King James says communicate and the new King James says share. The NIV says share the basic Bible in English says give apart. What is that word in the Greek? Now the new Testament was written in Greek. The old Testament was written in Hebrew and, And so in the New Testament, in the Greek text, that word in the King James that is translated communicate is the Greek word koinonia. Koinonia. Now you might be familiar with the word koinonia. Koinonia is the Greek word for fellowship, sometimes translated as church. So koinonia is the noun form of the word and koinonia is the verb form. And koinonia means to come into communion or enter into fellowship with, to become a sharer, to be made a partner, to To join oneself to, to make oneself a sharer or a partner. So what Paul is saying here, what God is saying through Paul, what God has inspired, God is the author. said in Galatians 6, 6, let him that is taught in the word communicate, share, give a part. That Greek word koinonio means come into fellowship with and communion with, be made a partner, join oneself to and make oneself a partner. with him who teaches, with him who teaches. In other words, those who receive the ministry of the word are supposed to share of their good things with their teacher. Now, Paul lived that way. How is any person who gives and devotes their life to to teaching the word, preaching the word, ministering the word, how are they supposed to get the sustenance they need for their life in ministry? Well, already in this lesson, in the beginning of this lesson, we looked at the Levites in the Old Testament. They were supposed to get their sustenance from the offerings given by the people. They worked in the temple. They served in the temple. So did the priests, the priests and the Levites served in the temple. They were not supposed to go out and work the fields and plant and harvest crops because they are dedicating their lives to the service of God in the temple. But it was the people, the people of Israel who were supposed to bring their tithes and offerings. And those were going to fund the operation of the temple and also the sustenance of the priests and Levites. That is God’s system of kingdom of God partnership. That’s what we established at the very beginning of this lesson. When we started this lesson, what is partnership in the kingdom of God? It is people contributing financially and in service and in prayer to the various works of God in the earth. People are partnering together to do the work of the ministry. And we said partnership is God’s method of providing the financial and physical resources for his kingdom work to be done. What you just heard was the continuation of a message that I preached called Kingdom of God Partnership. And we will continue this lesson again next week. And again today, I would like to share with you some more testimonies from some of our YouTube listeners. And this one wrote from California and said, you have an amazing ministry chock full of incredible teachings. I love your teaching on what the Bible really says about women in ministry. Yes, that’s a good one. That’s a powerful one. If you question whether women should be in ministry, whether women can preach ministry, Listen to that teaching. It is so vitally important as people have misunderstood scriptures and by not receiving women ministers, you’re not receiving a major part of the anointing and the revelation that God has for the body of Christ and the world. So listen to that teaching on my YouTube channel called what the Bible really says about women in ministry. It will bless you and set you free. Another one wrote and said, oh my, I’m so enjoying your teachings on the kingdom of God. They are so very enlightening. I’m only on lesson five now because I’ve gone back and re-listened several times and I love the way you recap and summarize as you go. You truly have a gift from God for teaching. Absolutely brilliant. And this one said, You truly are an amazing teacher. God has gifted you beyond measure. Well, glory to God. Praise the Lord. I thank God for the teaching gift. It was the gift of God giving me the ability to teach and break things down simply. And that’s one thing that really came in handy when I was teaching on the mission field, because I was teaching sometimes in places where they didn’t even speak English. Some of them did not have any education, didn’t even go to an elementary school. And I had pastors in one place in the Solomon Islands tell me, Cherri, your teachings are so simple, even a 10-year-old can understand them. One of them said, I’d been to a Bible school in Australia, but the teachings were so high and above me, I couldn’t grasp them and I couldn’t bring them home and share them with my people. But your teachings are so simple, even a 10-year-old can understand them. And your lessons are so easy to teach that we can teach them to our people. And so that’s the gift God gave me, was to break things down in a simple way to understand. And that is something that I’ve heard many of the listeners comment on, how it is so easy to understand things. It’s explained in a way people understand. And I pray and trust it is blessing you in that same way. And so if you would like to listen to these messages again or share them with your friends and family, which I encourage you to do and listen to all of our service messages, you can go to my YouTube channel, which is under my name, Cherri Campbell, C-H-E-R-R-I Campbell, C-A-M-P-B-E-L-L.
