ARTICLE: "RELIGION" WON'T SAVE ANY OF US!
LET THIS TRUMPET OF TRUTH BE HEARD BY THIS CHRISTIAN AND ALL OF MY BRETHREN IN JESUS CHRIST!
My beloved, I have often used the phrase "it's not about "religion", but it's about "relationship". In other words, just because you call yourself a Christian and have no relationship with Jesus Christ and Father God, doesn't mean you "are automatically qualified to be what I refer to as an "authentic believer and FOLLOWER of Jesus Christ". We must remember that even the demons know who Jesus is and surely they will never again have a loving relationship with Our Creator, nor will they ever be granted the opportunity to spend eternity in heaven with Him again. Satan KNOWS religion, but he will never again experience an intimate, loving relationship with our Creator. Satan is incapable of love, mercy, repentance and remorse! But mankind, on the other hand, has this opportunity to receive all of these things, but WE MUST CONTINUE TO BE REAL WITH FATHER GOD WHO SEES ALL AND KNOWS ALL!!!
Father God has a word of loving caution for all us who call ourselves "Christians" today: For those of us who think we have it all together, because we know God's Word inside and out, feel qualified to guide others through their blind alleys and darks nights and confused emotions to God. While you are guiding others, who is going to guide you? While we are preaching "Don't steal", are we going to rob people blind? Who would suspect us? The same with adultery. The same with idolatry. You can get by with almost anything if you front it with eloquent talk about God and His law. Satan has also mastered this ability and so has today's Apostate Preacher (and Christian). What separates the "authentic Christian" with these sorts is that we remain vigilant in safeguarding "the TRUTH, The WHOLE TRUTH and NOTHING BUT THE TRUTH SO HELP US GOD".
In today's Christendom, there are a lot of Apostate Preachers who preach "what itching ears want to hear". These compromising "Ministers of Half-truths" have mastered "The Art of Manipulation and Subtle Misconstrued Truth"; they have managed to master a formula for "what will make them wealthy while they streamline an ongoing "watered-down, compromised Word" to the vulnerable souls that cling to their every deceptive lie. They feed the garbage that "itching ears want to hear" and these lost and deceived souls are eating it up-- walking away thinking they have "ALL THAT GOD'S WORD SAYS THEY HAVE--but again, they are only embracing half truths and those things that will allow them to continue to justify their living in their sin: sexual perversion, greed, pride,--The Sin Of Lawlessness folks!
Folks flock to these mega-church auditoriums (and other false "sanctuaries") to hear the false teachers and preachers continue insisting that God wants to BLESS BLESS BLESS without any preaching of the need for repentance of sin. No longer preaching of Jesus Christ and The Gift of Salvation--a divine "gift" that is not meant to be presented on Christmas morning--as some beautifully wrapped Christmas present under a tree that a child aggressively tears open-- with no respect, reverence or understanding of "The TRUE GIFT" (JESUS CHRIST); that they should be holding in their hands (instead of being so wrapped up in the pressure of the commercialism of Christmas). Or where "the Christmas tree" can replace the actual tree that our savior was nailed to for the sins of the world. This reality and much more of God's Word is lost, compromised and even omitted from the messages behind many pulpits today! There is something dreadfully and horribly wrong with this folks!
These Apostate Preachers continue to deceive souls with lies that encourage and allow these apostate Christians to go on living in their sin-- BUT my beloved, GOD KNOWS ALL...SEES ALL...and not just in these "Apostate Churches, Pastors and Christians, but also in those of US who think we can get away with hiding behind our so-called knowledge of God's Word with eloquent speech and counsel, While, we ourselves, are also in dire need of an ongoing "examining our hearts and establishing an ongoing intimate relationship with Father God, Jesus Christ and The Holy Spirit. More than ever we ALL need to lay aside "religion" and gather close in our intimacy with Father God, nurturing and assuring our relationship with Our Creator is the real deal. We need, more than ever, to draw close in "The Secret Place"...pray, read, understand and walk out God's Word as The Holy Spirit instructs us to do so. BEING OBEDIENT TO ALL OF GOD'S WORD - AND HAVING A CONTINUAL WILLINGNESS TO SUBMIT TO THE LEADING AND DIVINE INSTRUCTION OF THE HOLY SPIRIT OF GOD!
In a season of Republican and Democratic National Conventions, I believe it is extremely appropriate for we, God's People, to stand in solidarity and declare unity as well-- not only under "The Stars and Stripes" but under "The SCARS and STRIPES" of OUR LEADER!
HALLELUJAH!!! JESUS- USA- JESUS - USA!!!!
HALLELUJAH!!! JESUS- USA- JESUS - USA!!!!
I've said it before-- the time for "playing church" and "being religious" IS DONE! We MUST NOT ONLY PREACH WITH ELOQUENT WORDS TO OTHERS, BUT ALSO PRACTICE WHAT WE PREACH!! WE are all in this together and WE must lay aside our doctrinal differences; our man-made traditions that have become "idols", and to lay aside our pride and our "well-polished trophies of claimed triumphs and victories of past "battles" on our separate "Catholic, Protestant, Baptist, Lutheran, Pentecostal and all other "religious affiliation BATTLE FIELDS" and realize we have all been fighting the same enemy! We have all been so arrogant in safeguarding what "our camps" have achieved in the name of God and Jesus Christ in Christendom. We MUST tear down the tents that have separated our "camps" of division and strife... We MUST unite under ONE BANNER - JEHOVAH NISSI-- and realize this can only be accomplished as we acknowledge the one most crucial element of our "so called Religiosity" and that is our common divine LINK-- JESUS CHRIST-- HIS LORDSHIP AS OUR REDEEMER, SAVIOR, KING AND CAPTAIN! Lay aside of swords we've used for brother against brother, for we are NOT the enemy.
We must remember: "For we are not fighting against flesh-and-blood enemies, but against evil rulers and authorities of the unseen world, against mighty powers in this dark world, and against evil spirits in the heavenly places". (Ephesians 6:12).
Now let's break it down even more so for those of us who are very good at counseling and inspiring our fellow believers with encouragement in God's Word, because we have a gift for counsel and exhortation. Although these qualities are great and Father God does use these gifts in you and I, are we "practicing what we preach"? History has shown us time and time again how Christian leaders; teachers, preachers, and evangelists have fallen from grace and choose either a sabbatical in order to work towards returning to their first love, or in some cases, they leave the ministry altogether? Regardless of what venue or platform we stand on in preaching the Word of God, we ALL must safeguard and protect our "relationship with Father God, Jesus Christ and The Holy Spirit. If we have no oil in our lamp how can we light the path for others to follow? If the Bread we are serving today is not "the fresh bread of heaven", then folks are going to be ingesting yesterday's "old, stale and mold-encrusted bread"; and there is nothing greater than fresh "living water" versus "water drawn from an contaminated backyard creek"....and nothing can compare to "the New Wine of Heaven" versus "some Old Wine from a drunkard's tavern".
If You and I, who call ourselves "Carriers and Heralds of The Good News" are mere hirelings... plagiarizing those true Christians who have an authentic relationship with The Father, Son and Holy Spirit, and who have dug and extracted the deeper truths from Father God's Word in their genuine time in seeking more of Father God-- and others stake false claim of this same Saint's gained divine revelation; and these "recycling" frauds" pridefully strut like spiritual peacocks-- thus, succeeding at looking and playing "the part" of "authentic" Preachers of the Gospel of Jesus Christ, GOD KNOWS THE TRUTH! Let us all seek Wisdom and The Holy Spirit's insight for ourselves-- this comes from an intimate relationship with Father God! I believe much truth and divine insight has been shared and expressed in this writing! None of us are exempt from what The Holy Spirit is speaking to us today! May we unite and abide under the shadow of The Almighty today! I love you all very much my brothers and sisters in Christ!!! (read Psalm 91 and find great peace and comfort in Father God, Jesus Christ and The Holy Spirit today! 🙏❤️✝🎺
MAY ALL WHO HAVE EARS LISTEN TO WHAT FATHER GOD IS SPEAKING IN THIS FINAL HOUR! SELAH AND AMEN!!
