BABY DEACON (NEPIOS)

A deacon, a leader, (who) supposed to be setting an example in the church, got mad and wouldn't come (to church). I knew something happened because his wife kept coming. (SOME MEN WOULD BE IN A MESS IF THEY DIDN'T HAVE GOOD WIVES.) I saw him in town and he would hardly talk to me. He was hard and cold, puffed up like a toad frog. His wife was a sweet person and I asked her, "What's wrong with him?" She said, "Oh, he's mad about something. He went home from church and went to bed. He wouldn't even talk to me for three days. I finally just asked him what was wrong. I thought maybe it was me. But it wasn't. And it's not exactly you. Somebody sat in his pew (chair). He always sits right here in the second pew, the second seat from the end. When he got here and someone was sitting there, he got so mad he stood up. He wouldn't sit anywhere else." A man like that isn't fit to be a deacon. God never planned that he would remain a spiritual baby. He wants us to grow spiritually. (Hb5:11,12-13) iiTm3:7. (Kenneth E. Hagin)
