Message summary & scripture references

I found myself getting upset with a few companies I used to run the Church for Entrepreneurs. These companies were promoting non-Christ-like behavior, and I wanted to stop using them because of that. However, Holy Spirit showed me that if I boycotted every company that went against Christ, I would effectively bring my vision to a standstill. He showed me that just because a company is ungodly doesn’t automatically mean I should boycott them. Instead, I should check with Holy Spirit and not my emotions. Listen to today’s message to dig into this idea.

Luke 4:15 KJV

[15] And he taught in their synagogues, being glorified of all.

Matthew 17:24-27 KJV

[24] And when they were come to Capernaum, they that received tribute money came to Peter, and said, Doth not your master pay tribute?
[25] He saith, Yes. And when he was come into the house, Jesus prevented him, saying, What thinkest thou, Simon? of whom do the kings of the earth take custom or tribute? of their own children, or of strangers?
[26] Peter saith unto him, Of strangers. Jesus saith unto him, Then are the children free.
[27] Notwithstanding, lest we should offend them, go thou to the sea, and cast an hook, and take up the fish that first cometh up; and when thou hast opened his mouth, thou shalt find a piece of money: that take, and give unto them for me and thee.

John 17:15 KJV

[15] I pray not that thou shouldest take them out of the world, but that thou shouldest keep them from the evil.

John 14:26 KJV

[26] But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you
