Present Day Danger

The Church is Failing
The Church has failed in her assignment from God, and we now live in a day of danger! Christians and non-Christians are suffering the consequences of that failure. Unless repentance, leading to restoration, revival, and awakening, comes quickly, things will only worsen. There will be a combination of God’s judgment and devilish storms.

Some Christians who know better are falling for things that further distract them from the core of what God wants. Some are being distracted by the things of the world. Some are being distracted by personal ego pursuits, even in spiritual things. Still others are distracted by things that pose as revival.

The devil keeps the world and many Christians “busy-busy-busy” with various and sundry pursuits. While people, including Christians, are finding pseudo personal fulfillment, the cause of God is wanting for lack of committed and dedicated disciples.

Spiritual Revolution
There must be a spiritual revolution within the Church! Dedicated and committed disciples must develop a “revolution mentality” and no longer settle for anything less than a return to Jesus Christ and His truth—His interpretation of truth. They must no longer accept private interpretations or a mixture of the Lord’s interpretation with their church’s or their pastor’s interpretation, no matter how popular that interpretation may be.

I just received a phone call from someone who said they represented a particular phone company and that they could give us a 50% savings on our church phone bill. I told them if they would guarantee, in writing, that our phone bill would become half of what it was, including taxes, etc., then I would take it. Of course, they did not mean that our phone bill would be cut in half, but many unlearned people fall for their way of saying things, their sales pitch. Recently, someone asked a pastor if there were still apostles in the present-day Church. Rather than giving a direct and clear yes or no answer, the pastor gave a pre-learned “canned” answer that his particular denomination gives to such questions. I understand that not all questions can be answered with a yes or no, but I also know that some answers are designed not to be clear and concise.

Conclusion
The point I am making is that every disciple needs to know Jesus and His Word, and every disciple needs to find out what their church leaders know and believe about Jesus and His Word. Disciples cannot grow to maturity, accomplish their God-given purposes, and finish their God-designed course if they continue learning from spiritual leaders who feed them with private interpretations of Scripture. Americans must demand that their leaders (executive, judicial, and legislative) rightly divide our Constitution. And disciples must demand that their church leaders rightly divide the Word of truth. All Americans must know the Constitution, and all disciples must know the Word of truth to accomplish this.

Spiritual leaders in the home must find true and mature spiritual church leaders who will equip their family for the work of the ministry. If you really understand what I am writing, then you will understand why you need a “revolution mentality.” We are in a Day of Danger that calls for revolution within the Church. Will you heed the call?
