The Reasons For Responding Rightly To Sickness

Speaker: Reverend Joseph Poon

Website: ⁠http://www.bpcwa.org.au/⁠

Bible Passage (KJV): Job 1:1-11

1 There was a man in the land of Uz, whose name was Job; and that man was perfect and upright, and one that feared God, and eschewed evil.

2 And there were born unto him seven sons and three daughters.

3 His substance also was seven thousand sheep, and three thousand camels, and five hundred yoke of oxen, and five hundred she asses, and a very great household; so that this man was the greatest of all the men of the east.

4 And his sons went and feasted in their houses, every one his day; and sent and called for their three sisters to eat and to drink with them.

5 And it was so, when the days of their feasting were gone about, that Job sent and sanctified them, and rose up early in the morning, and offered burnt offerings according to the number of them all: for Job said, It may be that my sons have sinned, and cursed God in their hearts. Thus did Job continually.

6 Now there was a day when the sons of God came to present themselves before the LORD, and Satan came also among them.

7 And the LORD said unto Satan, Whence comest thou? Then Satan answered the LORD, and said, From going to and fro in the earth, and from walking up and down in it.

8 And the LORD said unto Satan, Hast thou considered my servant Job, that there is none like him in the earth, a perfect and an upright man, one that feareth God, and escheweth evil?

9 Then Satan answered the LORD, and said, Doth Job fear God for nought?

10 Hast not thou made an hedge about him, and about his house, and about all that he hath on every side? thou hast blessed the work of his hands, and his substance is increased in the land.

11 But put forth thine hand now, and touch all that he hath, and he will curse thee to thy face.

Truly Truthful (Part 2) (Psalm 51:1-13)

Speaker: Reverend Joseph Poon

Website: http://www.bpcwa.org.au/

====

Bible Passage (KJV): Psalm 51:1-13

To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David, when Nathan the prophet came unto him, after he had gone in to Bathsheba.

1 Have mercy upon me, O God, according to thy lovingkindness: according unto the multitude of thy tender mercies blot out my transgressions. 

2 Wash me throughly from mine iniquity, and cleanse me from my sin. 

3 For I acknowledge my transgressions: and my sin is ever before me. 

4 Against thee, thee only, have I sinned, and done this evil in thy sight: that thou mightest be justified when thou speakest, and be clear when thou judgest. 

5 Behold, I was shapen in iniquity; and in sin did my mother conceive me. 

6 Behold, thou desirest truth in the inward parts: and in the hidden part thou shalt make me to know wisdom. 

7 Purge me with hyssop, and I shall be clean: wash me, and I shall be whiter than snow. 

8 Make me to hear joy and gladness; that the bones which thou hast broken may rejoice. 

9 Hide thy face from my sins, and blot out all mine iniquities. 

10 Create in me a clean heart, O God; and renew a right spirit within me. 

11 Cast me not away from thy presence; and take not thy holy spirit from me. 

12 Restore unto me the joy of thy salvation; and uphold me with thy free spirit. 

13 Then will I teach transgressors thy ways; and sinners shall be converted unto thee.

CHAPTER XXX OF CHURCH CENSURES

1. THE Lord Jesus, as king and head of his church, hath therein appointed a government in the hand of church-officers, distinct from the civil magistrate.1

1. Isa. 9:6-7; I Tim. 5:17; I Thess. 5:12; Acts 20:17-18; Heb. 13:7,17,24; I Cor. 12:28; Matt. 28:18-20

2. To these officers the keys of the kingdom of heaven are committed, by virtue whereof they have power respectively to retain and remit sins, to shut that kingdom against the impenitent, both by the word and censures; and to open it unto penitent sinners, by the ministry of the gospel, and by absolution from censures, as occasion shall require.2

2. Matt. 16:19; Matt. 18:17-18; John 20:21-23; II Cor. 2:6-8

3. Church censures are necessary for the reclaiming and gaining of offending brethren; for deterring of others from the like offenses; for purging out of that leaven which might infect the whole lump; for vindicating the honor of Christ, and the holy profession of the gospel; and for preventing the wrath of God, which might justly fall upon the church, if they should suffer his covenant, and the seals thereof, to be profaned by notorious and obstinate offenders.3

3. I Cor. 5:1-13; I Tim. 5:20; Matt. 7:6; I Tim. 1:20; I Cor. 11:27-34; with Jude 23

4. For the better attaining of these ends, the officers of the church are to proceed by admonition, suspension from the sacrament of the Lord’s Supper for a season, and by excommunication from the church, according to the nature of the crime, and demerit of the person.4

4. I Thess. 5:12; II Thess. 3:6,14-15; I Cor. 5:4-5,13; Matt. 18:17; Tit. 3:10

How Should I Be Merciful?

Bible Passage (KJV): Romans 12:17-21

17 Recompense to no man evil for evil. Provide things honest in the sight of all men.

18 If it be possible, as much as lieth in you, live peaceably with all men.

19 Dearly beloved, avenge not yourselves, but rather give place unto wrath: for it is written, Vengeance is mine; I will repay, saith the Lord.

20 Therefore if thine enemy hunger, feed him; if he thirst, give him drink: for in so doing thou shalt heap coals of fire on his head.

21 Be not overcome of evil, but overcome evil with good.

Can One Guide A Church To Godliness Using Corrupt Bible Versions?

Speaker: Reverend Joseph Poon

Subscribe Here: https://www.youtube.com/@TheBiblePresbyterianChurchofWA?sub_confirmation=1

Website: http://www.bpcwa.org.au/

INTRODUCTION - (00:00)

QUESTIONS

Q1. a) If the NASB (the New American Standard Bible) is a corrupt version, then how is it possible for a person or an elder or a pastor to live a godly life and lead the church to godliness even after using the corrupt version of the Bible? - (00:24)

Q1. b) How can they teach the church by using the corrupt version? - (19:35)

Q2. In the Bible, we are commanded to be sober. Can we take any medications if it has side effects that make us not sober? For example, cough syrups, painkillers, morphine. I know that the general answer is we apply general principles and if a person is sick, we still ought to preserve life. But my question would be, what gives the authority to us that in some situations we must be sober and in some situations we are allowed to take drugs which result in drowsiness? Is it just common sense or general practice? - (24:29)

Truly Truthful (2 Samuel 11:6-15)

Speaker: Reverend Joseph Poon

Website: http://www.bpcwa.org.au/

====

Bible Passage (KJV): 2 Samuel 11:6-15

6 And David sent to Joab, saying, Send me Uriah the Hittite. And Joab sent Uriah to David. 

7 And when Uriah was come unto him, David demanded of him how Joab did, and how the people did, and how the war prospered. 

8 And David said to Uriah, Go down to thy house, and wash thy feet. And Uriah departed out of the king's house, and there followed him a mess of meat from the king. 

9 But Uriah slept at the door of the king's house with all the servants of his lord, and went not down to his house. 

10 And when they had told David, saying, Uriah went not down unto his house, David said unto Uriah, Camest thou not from thy journey? why then didst thou not go down unto thine house? 

11 And Uriah said unto David, The ark, and Israel, and Judah, abide in tents; and my lord Joab, and the servants of my lord, are encamped in the open fields; shall I then go into mine house, to eat and to drink, and to lie with my wife? as thou livest, and as thy soul liveth, I will not do this thing. 

12 And David said to Uriah, Tarry here to day also, and to morrow I will let thee depart. So Uriah abode in Jerusalem that day, and the morrow. 

13 And when David had called him, he did eat and drink before him; and he made him drunk: and at even he went out to lie on his bed with the servants of his lord, but went not down to his house. 

14 And it came to pass in the morning, that David wrote a letter to Joab, and sent it by the hand of Uriah. 

15 And he wrote in the letter, saying, Set ye Uriah in the forefront of the hottest battle, and retire ye from him, that he may be smitten, and die.
