Loads of respect for Brother Paul. Thank you for your testimony. Good word on the corrosive effects of replacement theology. Watch out for the cult of self-esteem and those who speak smooth words of flattery. Daniel Kolenda is such a man. His abuse of the parable of the hidden treasure (Matthew 13:44) serves only to stroke our egos. Brother Paul, please rethink this false teaching. (I had the time and opportunity to watch, pause, and reflect. At conferences, you're very much on the go.) Before Christ saved me, I was saddled with a debt that I could never repay. My moral balance sheet was deeply in the red. There was no "treasure" that would commend me to God. As the apostle wrote: "For I know that nothing good dwells in me, that is, in my flesh" (Romans 7:18). Jesus seldom commended people, certainly not for their heritage, wealth, skill sets, connections, personalities, etc. He did commend the centurion for his faith in the God of Israel (Matthew 8:10). Bad teaching, as you point out, threatens the spread of the gospel. Lifting a single verse out of context, and then connecting it to proof-texts (Ephesians 2:8-9; Hebrews 12:2) is terrible teaching. First, the parable of the hidden treasure doesn't pertain to how people get saved; it has more to do with the results of salvation. When people get saved, they recognize the surpassing value of the reign and rule of God in their lives--to the point of selling everything they have. In Luke 18:18-30, Jesus did not tell the rich young ruler to "Sell all that you have and distribute to the poor" as a pathway to salvation. He was testing the rich man's readiness for salvation. Plainly he wasn't ready at that time (and, in God's mercy, that can change--thankfully). Second, we need to study Matthew 13:44 in tandem with 45-46. You'll see that some people stumble upon the treasure that is God's salvation; others conduct a deliberate search for it (prompted by the Holy Spirit). The end result is the same. Saved people recognize the exceeding value of knowing God. He's the treasure. Not us. (In His grace, He molds us into vessels that He can use.) Romans 5:8, "But God shows His love for us in that while we were still _____, Christ died for us." Obviously, you can't fill in the blank with "treasure."

What a terrible example of 40 years

[@blessedgigi2161]

Holiness why do you say this? I found his message to be real, truthful and up lifting. I really want to know why you find him to be a terrible example.
