Apostle Paul Affirmed Jesus Doctrines Key Word: Now is the judgment of this world: now shall the prince of this world be cast out. (Jn 12:31) Behold, I give unto you power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy: and nothing shall by any means hurt you. (Lk 10:19) They shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover. (Mk 16:18) Jesus Apostolic ministry began with an eyeball to eyeball power encountering with Satan Himself. This is an account of the HIGHEST LEVEL of spiritual strategy ever known about His-story. Now that Jesus is at the right hand of God the Father the war continues and His will be done on the earth. Apostle Paul said, Then cometh the end, when he shall have delivered up the kingdom to God, even the Father; when he shall have put down all rule and all authority and power. 25 For he must reign, till he hath put all enemies under his feet. (1 Co 15:24-25) Apostolic Movement for Jesus Christ 1
Jesus never ignores the devil and personally confronted the devil and demons under His command regularly. Right after His power encountered with Satan, And Jesus went about all Galilee, teaching in their synagogues, and preaching the gospel of the kingdom, and healing all manner of sickness and all manner of disease among the people. (Mt 4:23 KJV) Jesus forced a foe much more formidable than the Nightstalker. Jesus commanded us, now shall the prince of the world be cast out (Jn 12:31 KJV). Jesus refers to Satan as the prince of this World. The Prince of the world The Ruler of this World Jesus refers to Satan as at least three themes in the John Gospel. (Jn 12:31; Jn 14:30; Jn 16:11) After conversion of the Apostle Paul has re-affirmed Jesus doctrine, he has gone down one of the most dramatic ever recorded. Apostolic Movement for Jesus Christ 2
Apostle Paul was known in Jerusalem as one constantly And Saul, yet breathing out threatenings and slaughter against the disciples of the Lord, went unto the high priest, (Acts 9:1 KJV). At the time he left Jerusalem for Damascus, however he had no mind at all what was taking place in the invisible world. Jesus had just decided to with a supernatural appearance of the very one he was persecuting Jesus Christ. After that Apostle Paul was converted through divine intervention, I Apostle Cho believe that at the time of his conversion, Jesus already appointed Apostle Paul to build an Apostolic ministry of the Church. Apostle Paul reaffirmed Jesus doctrine with his divine appointment involved in serious warfare. Beloved brothers and sisters!! Let s look very closely at part of what Jesus Himself said to Apostle Paul on the day he was converted!! Delivering thee from the people, and from the Gentiles, unto whom now I send thee, 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. (Acts 26:17-18 KJV). Apostolic Movement for Jesus Christ 3
This was the SET to which Apostle Paul energetically dedicated the rest of his life. Apostle Paul later received it as his HEAVENLY VISION. (VERSE 19) Apostle Paul s heavenly vision: 1. Apostle Paul had been told that he would be sent (649) to the Gentiles. 2. Apostle Paul had been called to world evangelization. 3. Apostle Paul s role would be that of a cross-cultural Apostolic task. 4. His primary Apostolic task would be evangelism and church planting. THIS IS WHAT GOD EXPECTS APOSTLE PAUL TO DO IN THE VISIBLE WORLD. In the divine authority, Jesus used Words referring to the invisible world. Jesus said that when Apostle Paul would alive at a given nation or people group he would find them in darkness and under the power of Satan. Apostolic Movement for Jesus Christ 4
Jesus sent Apostle Paul, as He sends many of us today, to bring Jesus Christ, who said, I am the light of the world. He who follows me shall not walk in the darkness, but have the light of life. Everyone who follows Me shall not walk in darkness, but have the light of life (read Jn 8:12 KJV). The process of bringing the light of Jesus Christ to people groups bound in spiritual darkness involve, according to Apostle Paul s divine partakers taking that nation from the power of Satan to God (Acts 26:18 KJV). This seems to be very strong words, used in the context of a HIGH-PROFILE DIVINE HUMAN ENCOUNTER. Truly, it is as I have say again that Apostle Paul affirmed Jesus doctrines (Read Jn 12:31). It is time that Satan assigns certain principalities and power to keep specific people in spiritual darkness, a clear implication of Apostle Paul s appointment would be training group of people from darkness to the light would involve strongly confronting such power. For this cause that have turned the world upside down (Read Acts 17:6). Apostolic Movement for Jesus Christ 5
Apostle Cho s note: Such a confrontation would not be a simple thing. I Apostle Cho believe I am right in assenting that Satan let s no one under his power go without a fight. Apostolic people use for such a fight is SPIRITUAL WARFARE JESUS, IN ALL LIKELIHOOD WAS TELLING APOSTLE PAUL TO BE AN OVERCOMER. Jesus was telling Apostle Paul that to free the enemy s spiritual captives he would to overcome, or bind, strongman, as He had said to His disciples in Luke 11 chapter (Read Lk 11:14-23). G.O. ministry family!! In my sense, Apostolic people have substantial evidence that on the Damascus road Apostle Paul was appointed by the Lord Jesus to do strategic level spiritual warfare. Amen, Amen. Apostolic Movement for Jesus Christ 6
