How do I know I am in the right or wrong church!!
Not every church, Pastor will go to heaven!! You must make sure you belong to a church where the Holy Spirit moving. Ask God to help you to show you the right church!! It is very important to belong to the right church. A church where you are comfortable is a big NO!! You have to be challenged in your faith. Your faith must grow. Walk-on-the-water faith church, Holy Spirit-moving is the right church!! Make sure your are Born Again too!! You must repent and give your life to Jesus and be baptised!! A big NO church is where the Holy Spirit is not moving, too many doctorines, like the normal traditional churches. You must stay far away from them!! Baby christening is not biblical!! They like to preach what people want to hear and not what they must hear. Focus now on finding the right church. Ask God to show you the right church and to open doors for you to get there!! But it is of life importance that you must go to the right church!! A religious church is big trouble. It is not going to help you to get to heaven!! A faith based church where the Holy Spirit is moving, where you grow in your faith, where you are challenged in your faith, where they do baptisms too, and teach the Word of God!!
Acts 20: Hebrews and English:
Hebrews:
1.
ואחרי אשר שקטה המהומה קרא פולוס לתלמידים ויברכם ויצא ללכת אל מקדוניא׃
2.
ויעבר במדינות ההן ויזהר אתם בדברים רבים ויבא אל ארץ יון׃
3.
וישב שם שלשה חדשים ויהי באמרו ללכת אל סוריא ויארבו לו היהודים ויגמר בלבו לשוב דרך מקדוניא׃
4.
וילכו אתו עד לאסיא סופטרוס הברואי ומן התסלוניקים ארסטרכוס וסקונדוס וגיוס הדרבי וטימותיוס ומן אסיא טוכיקוס וטרופימוס׃
5.
ואלה הלכו לפנינו ויוחילו לנו בטרואס׃
6.
ואנחנו יצאנו מן פילפי אחרי ימי חג המצות ומקץ חמשה ימים באנו באניה אליהם אל טרואס ונשב שם שבעת ימים׃
7.
ויהי באחד בשבת כאשר נאספו התלמידים לבצע הלחם וידבר אתם פולוס כי אמר ללכת משם למחרת היום ויארך הדבר עד חצות הלילה׃
8.
ונרות רבים היו בעליה אשר נאספנו שם׃
9.
ובחור אחד שמו אבטוכוס ישב בחלון וירדם בהאריך פולוס את אמרתו ותגבר עליו שנתו ויפל מהמדור השלישי למטה וישאהו מת׃
10.
וירד פולוס ויגהר עליו ויחבקהו ויאמר אל תבהלו כי נשמתו בו׃
11.
ואחר עלה ויבצע הלחם ויטעם וירב לשיח אתם עד אור הבקר ויצא ללכת לדרכו׃
12.
והם הביאו את הנער חי וינחמו עד מאד׃
13.
ואנחנו קדמנו לרדת באניה ונעבר אסוסה למען נקח שם אתנו את פולוס כי כן צוה והוא חשב בלבו ללכת שמה ברגליו׃
14.
ויפגש אתנו באסוס ונקח אתו ונבא אל מיטוליני׃
15.
ומשם יצאנו באניה ונפגע ממחרת אל מול כיוס וביום השלישי עברנו אל סמוס ונלן בטרוגוליון ולמחרתו באנו אל מיליטוס׃
16.
כי פולוס אמר לעבר מעל פני אפסוס פן יצטרך להתמהמה באסיא כי אץ לבוא אם יוכל עד חג השבועות ירושלים׃
17.
וממיליטוס שלח אל אפסוס ויקרא את זקני הקהלה׃
18.
ויבאו אליו ויאמר להם אתם ידעתם איך הייתי עמכם בכל עת מן היום הראשון אשר דרכה רגלי באסיא׃
19.
אשר עבדתי את האדון בכל ענוה ובדמעות הרבה ובמסות המצאות אתי בנכלי היהודים׃
20.
איך לא כחדתי מכם כל דבר תועלת והגדתיו לכם ולמדתי אתכם ברבים ובכל בית ובית׃
21.
ואעיד ליהודים וליונים את התשובה לאלהים ואת האמונה באדנינו ישוע המשיח׃
22.
ועתה הנני אסיר הרוח ללכת ירושלים ואינני יודע מה יקרני שם׃
23.
אפס כי רוח הקדש מעיד בכל עיר ועיר לאמר כי מוסרות וצרות נכונו לי׃
24.
אבל לא אחוש לאחת מהנה וגם נפשי לא יקרה בעיני למען אשלים בשמחה את מרוצתי ואת השרות אשר קבלתי מאת האדון ישוע להעיד על בשורת חסד אליהם׃
25.
ועתה הנה ידע אנכי כי אתם כלכם אשר התהלכתי בקרבכם הלוך והשמע את מלכות יהוה כי לא תוסיפו עוד ראות פני׃
26.
על כן מעיד אני בכם היום הזה כי נקי אנכי מדמי כלכם׃
27.
כי לא כחדתי מהגיד לכם את עצת האלהים כלה׃
28.
לכן שמרו את נפשותיכם ואת כל העדר אשר הקים אתכם רוח הקדש לפקידים בו לרעות את עדת האלהים אשר קנה לו בדם נפשו׃
29.
כי ידע אני אשר אחרי צאתי יבואו בתוככם זאבים עזים אשר לא יחוסו על העדר׃
30.
וגם מקרבכם יקומו אנשים דברי תהפכות להטות אחריהם את התלמידים׃
31.
על כן שקדו וזכרו כי שלש שנים יומם ולילה לא חדלתי לדבר על לב כל אחד מכם בדמעות׃
32.
ועתה אחי אני מסר אתכם לאלהים ולדבר חסדו אשר לו היכלת לבנות אתכם ולתת לכם נחלה בקרב כל המקדשים׃
33.
לא חמדתי כסף איש או זהבו או לבושו׃
34.
ואתם ידעתם כי ידי אלה עבדו בעד צרכי ובעד צרכי ההלכים אתי׃
35.
ובכל הראיתי אתכם כי כן עלינו לעמל ולתמך את החלשים ולזכר את דברי האדון ישוע כי הוא אמר טוב אשר תתן משתקח׃
36.
ואחרי דברו את הדברים האלה כרע על ברכיו ויתפלל עם כלם׃
37.
ויבכו כלם בכי גדול ויפלו על צוארי פולוס וינשקו לו׃
38.
וביותר התעצבו על הדבר אשר דבר כי לא יוסיפו עוד לראות פניו וילוהו אל האניה׃
English:
"Paul Goes to Macedonia and Greece
When the uproar was over, Paul sent for the believers and encouraged them. Then he said good-bye and left for Macedonia. While there, he encouraged the believers in all the towns he passed through. Then he traveled down to Greece, where he stayed for three months. He was preparing to sail back to Syria when he discovered a plot by some Jews against his life, so he decided to return through Macedonia.
Several men were traveling with him. They were Sopater son of Pyrrhus from Berea; Aristarchus and Secundus from Thessalonica; Gaius from Derbe; Timothy; and Tychicus and Trophimus from the province of Asia. They went on ahead and waited for us at Troas. After the Passover ended, we boarded a ship at Philippi in Macedonia and five days later joined them in Troas, where we stayed a week.
Paul’s Final Visit to Troas
On the first day of the week, we gathered with the local believers to share in the Lord’s Supper. Paul was preaching to them, and since he was leaving the next day, he kept talking until midnight. The upstairs room where we met was lighted with many flickering lamps. As Paul spoke on and on, a young man named Eutychus, sitting on the windowsill, became very drowsy. Finally, he fell sound asleep and dropped three stories to his death below. Paul went down, bent over him, and took him into his arms. “Don’t worry,” he said, “he’s alive!” Then they all went back upstairs, shared in the Lord’s Supper, and ate together. Paul continued talking to them until dawn, and then he left. Meanwhile, the young man was taken home alive and well, and everyone was greatly relieved.
Paul Meets the Ephesian Elders
Paul went by land to Assos, where he had arranged for us to join him, while we traveled by ship. He joined us there, and we sailed together to Mitylene. The next day we sailed past the island of Kios. The following day we crossed to the island of Samos, and a day later we arrived at Miletus.
Paul had decided to sail on past Ephesus, for he didn’t want to spend any more time in the province of Asia. He was hurrying to get to Jerusalem, if possible, in time for the Festival of Pentecost. But when we landed at Miletus, he sent a message to the elders of the church at Ephesus, asking them to come and meet him.
When they arrived he declared, “You know that from the day I set foot in the province of Asia until now I have done the Lord’s work humbly and with many tears. I have endured the trials that came to me from the plots of the Jews. I never shrank back from telling you what you needed to hear, either publicly or in your homes. I have had one message for Jews and Greeks alike—the necessity of repenting from sin and turning to God, and of having faith in our Lord Jesus.
“And now I am bound by the Spirit to go to Jerusalem. I don’t know what awaits me, except that the Holy Spirit tells me in city after city that jail and suffering lie ahead. But my life is worth nothing to me unless I use it for finishing the work assigned me by the Lord Jesus—the work of telling others the Good News about the wonderful grace of God.
“And now I know that none of you to whom I have preached the Kingdom will ever see me again. I declare today that I have been faithful. If anyone suffers eternal death, it’s not my fault, for I didn’t shrink from declaring all that God wants you to know.
“So guard yourselves and God’s people. Feed and shepherd God’s flock—his church, purchased with his own blood—over which the Holy Spirit has appointed you as leaders. I know that false teachers, like vicious wolves, will come in among you after I leave, not sparing the flock. Even some men from your own group will rise up and distort the truth in order to draw a following. Watch out! Remember the three years I was with you—my constant watch and care over you night and day, and my many tears for you.
“And now I entrust you to God and the message of his grace that is able to build you up and give you an inheritance with all those he has set apart for himself.
“I have never coveted anyone’s silver or gold or fine clothes. You know that these hands of mine have worked to supply my own needs and even the needs of those who were with me. And I have been a constant example of how you can help those in need by working hard. You should remember the words of the Lord Jesus: ‘It is more blessed to give than to receive.’”
When he had finished speaking, he knelt and prayed with them. They all cried as they embraced and kissed him good-bye. They were sad most of all because he had said that they would never see him again. Then they escorted him down to the ship."

1. "Behold, what I have seen to be good and fitting is to eat and drink and find enjoyment in all the toil with which one toils under the sun the few days of his life that God has given him, for this is his lot."
2. "There is nothing better for a person than that he should eat and drink and find enjoyment in his toil. This also, I saw, is from the hand of God."
3. "A joyful heart is good medicine, but a crushed spirit dries up the bones."
4. " For the Scriptures say, “If you want to enjoy life and see many happy days, keep your tongue from speaking evil and your lips from telling lies."
5. "Rejoice, O young man, in your youth, and let your heart cheer you in the days of your youth. Walk in the ways of your heart and the sight of your eyes. But know that for all these things God will bring you into judgment."
6. "Until now you have asked nothing in my name. Ask, and you will receive, that your joy may be full."
7. "Teach those who are rich in this world not to be proud and not to trust in their money, which is so unreliable. Their trust should be in God, who richly gives us all we need for our enjoyment. Tell them to use their money to do good. They should be rich in good works and generous to those in need, always being ready to share with others. By doing this they will be storing up their treasure as a good foundation for the future so that they may experience true life."
8. "I perceived that there is nothing better for them than to be joyful and to do good as long as they live; also that everyone should eat and drink and take pleasure in all his toil—this is God's gift to man."
9. "These things I have spoken to you, that in Me you may have peace. In the world you will have tribulation; but be of good cheer, I have overcome the world.”
10. "And my spirit rejoices in God my Savior."
11. “That is why I tell you not to worry about everyday life—whether you have enough food and drink, or enough clothes to wear. Isn’t life more than food, and your body more than clothing? Look at the birds. They don’t plant or harvest or store food in barns, for your heavenly Father feeds them. And aren’t you far more valuable to him than they are? Can all your worries add a single moment to your life?"
