YOU REALLY SHOULDN'T EAT FROM JUST ANYBODY Part 2
One year my mother made oyster gumbo for a lot of out of town guests she was having at her house. She pulled out her fine china, crystal and of course her best pots. For the gumbo she used her largest and cleanest Club pot. It was a huge pot and everyone was truly looking forward to having some of that gumbo. When the time came to eat they opened the pot and it was bubbling. No, it wasn’t a fire under the pot but it was the oysters she had put in the gumbo itself and left on top of the hot stove that had gone bad. No one could eat from that pot of gumbo. Obviously it brings to mind the story of Elisha in 2 Kings 4 when he told the prophets to prepare a stew. One of them gathered some wild herbs and put them in the pot but when they tasted it they knew that it would kill them. There’s death in the pot they exclaimed! Elisha put some flour in the pot and they were able to eat. Unfortunately, for my mother’s gumbo, there was no amount of flour that would have made it edible that day.
It’s the same way with those who feed the body of Christ with what’s supposed to be the pure, unadulterated word of God. There are just some things that are coming across the pulpits today that not only could but are literally bringing death to the spirits of God’s sons and daughters.
