Watching the erosion of America' church it is evident...
The church has not been taught truth. Pastors have preached, Sunday school teacher have taught a feel good, name it and claim it, seeker friendly - your best life now message, but they have not taught truth.
Gentle Jesus, meek and mild..... What a friend we have in Jesus...
A steady diet of milk not meat has created a feeble, frail and powerless body. A body unprepared for the future that awaits America.
"...but if anyone suffers as a Christian, he is not to be ashamed, but is to glorify God in this name. For it is time for judgment to begin with the household of God; and if it begins with us first, what will be the outcome for those who do not obey the gospel of God? AND IF IT IS WITH DIFFICULTY THAT THE RIGHTEOUS IS SAVED, WHAT WILL BECOME OF THE GODLESS MAN AND THE SINNER?…" 1 Peter 4
Judgment is not coming to America - JUDGMENT IS ALREADY HERE.!!. Yet, the church is disengaged, unprepared and sleeping soundly.
Daniel and the three Hebrew children were taken captive. Kingdom after kingdom were taken over by the enemies of God, prophets, priests and kings, the righteous as well as the unrighteous were taken captive.
"Jesus passed through the university of suffering and there obtained the certificate of perfect obedience. And NOW He has become a Professor in the same university to teach obedience to all 'who are willing to enroll'. As Hebrews 5 teaches, there is no compulsion here, as there was under the old covenant, with its "Thou shalt Not..." Now the Spirit and the bride say, "Come, join this university." No one can be a disciple who does not join this university... for this is the only place where disciples are trained. Jesus is far more interested in saving us from evil than in saving us from tribulation. He permits us to go through tribulation because He knows that is the only way we become spiritually strong. Such a message is strange teaching indeed to a comfort-loving Christendom that has been coddled Sunday after Sunday for years. Coddled with ear-tickling sermons by pansy pastors. But this is the message that the apostles preached to the early churches.
Paul Barnabas, Peter, James...strengthened the souls of those in the early church, encouraging them to continue in the faith, saying; "Through many tribulations we must enter the kingdom of God" Acts 14:22 [ Zac Poonen, Christian Fellowship Church]
It is my earnest prayer that the church will arise from its slumber, engage in the battle, study to show themselves approved of God, stop swallowing and following every wind of doctrine and stand on The Truth of The Word of God.
"...and let us consider how to stimulate one another to love and good deeds, not forsaking our own assembling together, as is the habit of some, but encouraging one another; and all the more as you see the day drawing near. For if we go on sinning willfully after receiving the knowledge of the truth, there no longer remains a sacrifice for sins…" Hebrews 10
