The last 20 years we had a phenomenal growth in movements and ministries, in
such a variety, these churches and movements were no denominational, they
didn't represent a certain group or faith as such. A lot of people felt the call
to start a church or group, away from traditional Christianity. There was and is
no control from outside, these new emerged movements and churches adapted from
one and other to make their movement grow. Within these groups was and is a
strict hierarchy, whereby the "founder, leader, owner of the ministry has all
the responsibility, and authority, often being corrupted by the power they
experienced, and altering bible truth in popular preaching and teaching. This
lead to wild a growth of teaching and preaching, leaving behind the
traditions and doctrines handed to us over a period of hundreds of years.
Nothing new. Paul wrote to the church;
2 Thess 2:15 So then, brethren, stand firm and hold fast to the traditions
{and} instructions which you were taught by us, whether by our word of mouth
or by letter.
Defending the faith we call people preachers pastors and churches every
where to stand firm against the movements of popular Christianity, Purpose
Driven apostasy, Contemplative Christianity, infiltrating New Age doctrines,
Health and Wealth heresies, lying signs and wonders, Emergent church
movement.
1 John 4:1 BELOVED, DO not put faith in every spirit, but prove (test)
the spirits to discover whether they proceed from God; for many false
prophets have gone forth into the world.
1 John 4:5 They proceed from the world {and} are of the world; therefore it
is out of the world [its whole economy morally considered] that they speak,
and the world listens (pays attention) to them.
1 John 4:6 We are [children] of God. Whoever is learning to know God
[progressively to perceive, recognize, and understand God by observation and
experience, and to get an ever-clearer knowledge of Him] listens to us; and
he who is not of God does not listen {or} pay attention to us. By this we
know (recognize) the Spirit of Truth and the spirit of error.
A call to a Spiritual awakening within
the Church
Are we recognizing
our poor condition
to repent and to return to biblical truth before the turning back is passing by,
to the point of no return!
.
1 Cor 15:33 Do not be so deceived {and} misled! Evil companionships
(communion, associations) corrupt {and} deprave good manners {and} morals
{and} character.
1 Cor 15:34 Awake [from your drunken stupor and return] to sober sense {and}
your right minds, and sin no more. For some of you have not the knowledge of
God [you are utterly and willfully and disgracefully ignorant, and continue
to be so, lacking the sense of God's presence and all true knowledge of
Him]. I say this to your shame.
AWAKE O CHURCH!!
AWAKE FROM THE DEAD!!
The church of Jesus Christ is largely sleeping they said to themselves
please don't wake me up I want to sleep on, don't bother me in this our. For
I have all I need "God blessed us"
But did He church? did God Bless you?? You say I am saved and I can go to
heaven! and are in need of nothing
Where you are saved from!;
- Are saved from lust ?
- Are saved from adultery?
- Are you saved from
fornication?
- Are you saved from stealing?
- Are you saved from
lying?
- Are you saved from
cheating?
- Are you saved from
coveting?,
Common where are you saved from?
The church of Jesus Christ is fornicating with the world.
You say how do we fornicate with the
world. Because you lust after the things of the world You have not been
crucified to the world but the world still fascinates you,
That is why the church has become a Harlot and left the path of
righteousness and followed after the foreign gods of this world.
They even commit adultery with the gods of the Pagan religions
They have not forsaken their sins
and have not turned from their wickedness, but said in their hearts God is
love and overlooks all my faults. Jesus Christ suffered all, so I can do as
I well please and be safe.
Since Jesus has my happiness in mind and He will do all he can to make my
life pleasurable and easy.
But you have deceived yourself
and are deceived by those false
prophets that tell you all is well. Just accept Jesus and you enter into a
life of bliss. God accepts you brother just the way you are, and go on
living the same way, no matter what.
But the happiness of men is not the prime object of salvation,
but the Glory of God is. It is not what I can get out of a holy God, but
what a holy God can get out of me, for His sake and Glory. The happiness of
men is never a means but an end to salvation, God is not a means to the
happiness of men, but God is the end unto all living creatures and to all
things. And the only important thing that counts is, how God can get glory
out of a human being, then the happiness of men is a welcome by product and
not the prime object of your faith.
That is the betrayal of the ages !!!!
Where do the preachers tell the people that they are hell bound sinners
and won't make it to heaven unless they repent!!! Unless they forsake their
sins and turn to GOD, humble themselves and pray, weeping over their
selfishness, fornication and lust and worldliness, returning to a holy God,
forsaking the world, crucifying the flesh and live a holy life before
Almighty God!
But the church of Jesus Christ
made the world the god of their appetite
and left the narrow way to God, the way
of godly fear, the way of wisdom the way of holiness!
Judgment is at the door. Why do I know that? Because the judgment seat
begins at the house of God
And God is pointing his finger at
His church saying REPENT! REPENT! for I will come as a thief in de night and
when I come it may be too late!!
You say we love God, but I say; why then have you forsaken HIM; why did
you leave the path of righteousness??
Is it not clear said in my Word those who love me obey me, and those that
obey me are the ones that love ME
1 John 2:4
Whoever says, I know
Him [I perceive, recognize, understand, and am acquainted with Him] but
fails to keep {and} obey His commandments (teachings) is a liar, and the
Truth [of the Gospel] is not in him.
Jesus is coming soon and very soon for His bride. Are you truly looking
foreword for His coming? Are you able to hear his voice? Are you done with
the world and everything in it? Are you willing to be forgiven from all your
wanderings? Are you willing to return to Jesus and follow Him alone? Are you
willing to take up your cross daily and follow after Him? Are you willing to
die to self and to the world? Are willing to take up your cross daily? Are
you without spot nor wrinkle?
If you have accepted Christ without repentance, then now is the time to
repent, return and be forgiven and sin no more!
This is the call of God today, not
to the world of sinners, but to His church of sinners to repent, for HIS
coming is at hand, His appearing is at the door!!
Ministry of Hope
God Bless
