The Truth
of God
This is to encourage the
pastors and believers that have left the traditional church and beliefs
and friends because they will not compromise their faith. You that have
come out of the deadness of today's church, the church that is more
concerned with building bigger buildings and entertainment centers and
unscriptual teachings than they are with the lost and following Jesus.
We know that many of you are suffering physically, mentally, emotionally
and financially because of your stand for Christ. Do not despair, you
are not alone.
"Then he said to
his slaves, 'The wedding is ready, but those who were invited were not
worthy. Go therefore to the main highways, and as many as you find
there, invite to the wedding feast.' Matthew 22:8-9 We know you and
how you feel and how you have been rejected by many in the church
because you hold to the truth. No one wants to hear the truth anymore,
it is easier to believe a lie.
John 15:8-10 "By
this is My Father glorified, that you bear much fruit, and so prove to
be My disciples. Just as the Father has loved Me, I have also loved you;
abide in My love. If you keep My commandments, and abide in His love.
But you are a chosen
race, a royal priesthood, a Holy nation, a peoples for God's own
possession, that you may proclaim the excellencies of Him who has called
you out of darkness into His marvelous light… 1 Peter 2:9
And by this we know that
we have come to know Him, if we keep his commandments. 1 John 2:3
You who are studying the
prophecies and praying for understanding, who know that God is revealing
new truths to be understood at the endtimes. You have not been blinded
by false doctrines and have remained open to the Spirit's teaching. . And
he said, "Go your way, Daniel, for these words are concealed and
sealed up until the end time. Many will be purged, purified and refined;
but the wicked will act wickedly, and none of the wicked will
understand, but those who have insight will understand. Daniel 12:9-10
Be encouraged our brothers
and sisters we are being added to daily. God is preparing
an army who will go forth in power throughout the world and the gates of
hell will not prevail against His church. You will be persecuted and
hated , but hold on for you will inherit Eternal life. Remember, you are
on the winning side.
Many Christians are
confused about prophecy because of false doctrines like the pre-rapture,
dispensationlism and the conversion of Israel.
But the Spirit
explicitly says that in later times some will fall away from the faith,
paying attention to deceitful spirits and doctrines of demons. 1 Timothy
4:1
For the time will come
when they will not endure sound doctrine; but wanting to have their ears
tickled, they will accumulate for themselves teachers in accordance to
their own desires; and will turn away their ears from the truth, and
will turn aside to myths. But you, be sober in all things, endure
hardship, do the work of an evangelist, fulfill your ministry. 2 Timothy
4:3-5
Awaken O' church. The time
is fast approaching when you are going to have to take a stand for your
faith. If you are locked in with denominationlism you will miss the
boat. All churches have some truth, but no individual church has all the
truth. Each has taken a little piece of the truth and built a
denomination around it. God is seeking those who are open to His
teaching as He reveals new truths for these last days.
You have heard the saying,
"Birds of a feather flock together.." As human beings and as
Christians we will seek out churches and close friends that are like us.
If we are desiring to feel good and be entertained then that is exactly
what we will look for. What are you seeking within a church. We have to
ask ourselves, are we seeking truth, are our hopes and desires to learn
more about God, and are we concerned about the lost and what is our part
in the body. Or are we seeking to be entertained, fill our loneliness,
have that feel good feeling. Are we entering into groups of friends to
pray with and are we seeing results from those prayers. Are the friends
you have committed to in your spiritual walk loving you and others too.
Are they strengthening and helping you to mature or are they dragging
you down. Iron sharpens iron, So one man sharpens another. (Proverbs
27:17) Are we changing and overcoming our sins. Are we growing in
Christ. Is our pastor and those teaching us, equipping and encouraging
you to study on your own with the help of the Holy Spirit? Are your
leaders seeking the new truths unfolding in Daniel for these last days
and sharing those truths or are they locked in traditionalism of their
denomination. Are the pastors afraid to bring new truths because of the
fear of others in the church so they too compromise.
I have visited several
churches in the last year listening to sermons on the endtimes and
prophecy. One said that all of Revelation had already been fulfilled,
another that it had been fulfilled all but the 2nd coming.
And the rest believed that we would not be here during the Great
Tribulation because of the rapture. One pastor went on to say that all
the ladies who were left behind were ladies of loose morals and all the
men left would know just what kind of women they were. My heart was so
heavy as I left this church that day. The pastor stood at the door to
greet everyone as they left. I felt the Spirit say, shake his hand,
thank him for his sermon and ask him in the light of the sermon to
please read Luke 17:37. He graciously said he would and I left
with sadness for these people who had been deceived.
I sat working one Sunday on
the computer while listening to a sermon on the televison. It was one of
the local churches I had visited before and had listened to many times.
The sermon was on the book of Romans. The pastor had been preaching on
Romans for over a year now. As the pastor finished his sermon he made an
announcement that the church was offering an alternative to bring in the
New year at the church. He added that he was going to bring a sermon on
the entire book of Revelation in that one night! Was this a joke or
something. How could this be? A book so important, the very revealing of
our Lord Jesus Christ as it is unfolding before our very eyes, could it
be so unimportant that it could be joked about or be of a lesser value
to teach upon than Romans. This book that we need to be understanding
right now so we will know why God is bringing upon this world His
judgments. Many will lose faith and therefore will not be saved. "Awake
, O sword, against My Shepherd, And against the man, My Associate,"
Declares the Lord of hosts. Strike the Shepherd that the sheep may be
scattered; And I will turn My hand against the little ones. And will
come about in all the land," Declares the Lord, "That two
parts in it will be cut off and perish; ; But the third will be left in
it. And I will bring the third part through the fire, Refine them as
silver is refined, And test them as gold is tested. They will call on My
name, And I will answer them; I will say,' They are My people,' And they
will say, ' The Lord is my God." Zechariah 13:7-9
My people are destroyed
for lack of knowledge. Because you have rejected knowledge, I also will
reject you from being My priest. Since you have forgotten the law of
your God, I also will forget your children. Hosea 4:6
God bless those who have
made the choice to be about the King's business in these last days.
Blessed are those who wash their robes, that they may have the right to
the tree of life, and may enter by the gates into the city. Revelation
22:14
How many times has the
Spirit of God spoke to you with truth. How many others has He sent to
warn you. Have you allowed your heart to become hardened to His call,
just because it is different from what you have been told. The Spirit
cannot teach someone who has closed his mind.
The trumpets are soon to
sound. Will you be ready to help others come to Christ. Will you blame
your pastor because He did not warn you of the coming judgments of God
or even possibly hate God when these things come upon us and you do not
understand why.
Are you sowing seeds?
People go to church week after week growing fat in all the knowledge of
sermons and Bible study and yet they never mature.
Now is the time Brother and
Sisters. The things of this world will soon pass away, but those
treasures that you have laid up in heaven will last for eternity.
Satan is preparing for this
final conflict over the people of God and he knows his time is short. He
also knows that many are being deceived and many of those sitting in
churches have become hardened. We have to keep our eyes on Jesus and
surround ourselves with those who will encourage us to pray and to study
and to go, be and do all that Jesus asks.
Find others to pray and
study with. It only takes 2 to become a church If you are fortunate
enough to find a pastor who is teaching truth and encouraging his flock,
support him in every way you can. Ask God what He would have you to do
to further His Kingdom. Do not continue to sit on a pew of a church that
is not helping you to prepare for these endtimes. You may be enjoying
the music , the fellowship and the sermon but if there is no
understanding of truth then you are risking your very soul. "But
an hour is coming, and now is, when the true worshipers shall worship
the Father in spirit and truth; for such people the Father seeks to be
His worshipers. God is spirit, and those who worship Him must worship in
spirit and truth." John 4:23-24
