Is the church following

The GOSPEL of Christ

Or the doctrine of men?

God's church is a group of people, not a building with man made laws. God's church believe's in the bible. They know Jesus christ died for thier sins, and arose in 3 days. THey know Jesus christ is lord our God. They ask Jesus christ lord our God for forgivness of thier sins. They have repented of thier sins. They know Jesus Christ is lord and savoir. Doctrine of men in a church building does not have much to do with GOd himself. ITs just a guideline that a church with people will use to uphold certain man made rules that most of the time go with what the bible does say, Sometimes it does not. Decide with your mind and read your bible to decide which church is correct for you. Make sure the holy spirit is present, and the Gospel is taught, and harvast is brought in (people saved)

Why are there few that stay in the church

And many that walk out the back door?

Most of the walking out the back door can be said from the "I" problems most churches have these days. Everyone see's what can the church do for me, or what can I do for the Chruch. What they fail to see is that its suppose to be "What can I do for GOD", and "I want to worship God here, and keep the talk down".

Why are not many people walking

In Gods promises of freedom and victory?

Because they shut thier eyes and hearts. They do not read thier bible and grow in the word, and have a personal relationship with God. They play church, and not really see GOD as the reason and the purpose. Most people do not harvast their own crops, (bring people to God) ITs all about "I".

In all these so called bible-based

Doctrines and theologies?

What is the TRUTH and what is not?

I answer this with a question. Why can't the BIble be read as is in English and the meaning that is there be used as truth. For example "Thou shalt not kill" means that shalt not kill. SO, the rest of the bible should be read the same way. People focus to much on the doctrines, and theologies which are man made, rather than the bible which is Gods word.

Why do we have so many different denominations?

MAN

Why do we not love each other

As Jesus asked us to?

SIN

Is it wrong to have questions?

Do I have the right to ask?

No, its not wrong to ask questions. Yes you have the right. Does everyone see this as truth?? NO, but the bible says we are to ask. Wisdom is a good thing in GOd's eyes.

Why does the world laugh at

and mock the church?

Why is the Church not an influential

Powerful force on earth?

People laugh and mock the church mostly because man has taken over, and made it that way. WE cannot have a church where everyone loves one another all the time.We are sinful, and all the things that go with it.

The church is powerful and influential, its just the people in it are not and refuse to go out and wittness like we are suppose to do.

These are just some of the questions, But I do put myself as responsible of these things also. I am not perfect, and do fail at so many of these very things.

I pray God will give us all more wisdom to go out and reap the harvast for GOd.

BellaRose,

Grace and peace from God our Father and Jesus Christ the Lord. I have been blessed by your questions. I pray that I may in turn bless you with my answers. I will do my best to not give you my own words that will only amount to vanity and futility. Rather I will use the seed which God has give me. I will cast the word of God your direction, may God bear witness and bring the increase in your life as well as in mine. Because everything I will tell you will be something that I have told myself very many times. In teaching you, I also teach myself. Not because I condemn myself with my teaching, but that I live it and reenforce it in my life everytime I share it with others. That being said, all glory be to God who performed this act in my life by His Word which is life, peace, light, and truth. The life is that which comes from the uncorruptable seed, eternal life. The peace is that peace which Christ left us that surpasses all understanding. The light is the light of God in which is no darkness. Which God has given my that I may let it shine before all men. The truth is the true gospel common throughout the entire Bible about the salvation which was once delivered unto the saints. There is no lie in it.

Now I am but a man. I am ever changing, but the Word of God is unchangable, eternal, and perfect. It needs nothing added or taken away from it. So I will not add my own experience to what I say unless it expressly proves and agrees with the truth. How can two walk together unless they agree? Can we walk with God and not agree with Him? He is unwavering. So if it comes between my being something based on my ever-changing experience or the constancy of God's word, I will choose God's word. Now to answer your questions.

Is the church following the GOSPEL of Christ or the doctrine of men? 2Jo 1:9 Whosoever transgresseth, and abideth not in the doctrine of Christ, hath not God. He that abideth in the doctrine of Christ, he hath both the Father and the Son. 10 If there come any unto you, and bring not this doctrine, receive him not into your house, neither bid him Godspeed: 11 For he that biddeth him Godspeed is partaker of his evil deeds. 1Jo 3:6 Whosoever abideth in him sinneth not: whosoever sinneth hath not seen him, neither known him. 8 He that committeth sin is of the devil; for the devil sinneth from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that he might destroy the works of the devil. 9 Whosoever is born of God doth not commit sin; for his seed remaineth in him: and he cannot sin, because he is born of God. 3Jo 1:11 Beloved, follow not that which is evil, but that which is good. He that doeth good is of God: but he that doeth evil hath not seen God.

You see here that in every one of John's letter he makes the point to speak of this. If we say we have fellowship with the light, and yet walk in darkness, we lie, and do not know the truth. The divorce rate is higher in the "church" than outside. When people read the verse saying "and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it" they think it's talking about the church being on the defensive. No! It's the church being on the offensive. It's the church banging down the gates of hell to get into China and preaching the gospel with zeal in the midst of a country that will put them to death. The church is no more a camp full of valiant warriors. It's liken unto a hospital infirmary full of the sick and beggerly.

    • You are coming up higher in this season – above the assignments of character assassination and verbal arrows sent to manage you, contain you, and derail your purpose. Where you have had your dreams and sleep robbed, as well as your peace and clarity robbed – leaving you feeling foggy, confused, and heavy – God is, right now, bringing freedom back -- now you will clearly see the smoke and mirrors that were set to distract you and you will disengage.

      Right now God is declaring a "no access zone" around you, and your enemies will no longer have any entry point into your life. Oil is being poured over you to restore the years that the locust ate and give you back your passion. This is where you will feel a fresh roar begin to erupt from your inner being, and a call to leave the trenches behind and begin your odyssey in your Christ calling moving you to bear fruit that remains as you minister to and disciple others into their Christ identity.

      This is where you leave the trenches and scale the mountain to fight from a different place, from victory, from peace, and from rest. Now watch as God leads you up higher above all the noise, above all the chaos, and shows you where you have been seated all along with Him in heavenly places where you are UNTOUCHABLE. This is where you leave the soul fight, and the mind battle, and learn to fight differently.

      You will know how to live like an eagle and lead others to the same place of safety and protection that God led you to, which broke you out of the silent prison you were in. Put your war boots on and get ready to fight back! Refuse to lay down -- get out of bed and rebuke what is coming at you. Remember where you are seated and live from that place.

      Acts 1:8 - “But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you will be my witnesses … to the end of the earth.”

    • George Whitten, the visionary behind Worthy Ministries and Worthy News, explores the timing of the Simchat Torah War in Israel. Is this a water-breaking moment? Does the timing of the conflict on October 7 with Hamas signify something more significant on the horizon?

    • Understanding the Enemy!

      I thought I write about the flip side of a topic, and how to recognize the attempts of the enemy to destroy lives and how you can walk in His victory!

      For the Apostle Paul taught us not to be ignorant of enemy's tactics and strategies.

      2 Corinthians 2:112  Lest Satan should get an advantage of us: for we are not ignorant of his devices. 

      So often, we can learn lessons by learning and playing "devil's" advocate.  When we read this passage,

      Mar 3:26  And if Satan rise up against himself, and be divided, he cannot stand, but hath an end. 
      Mar 3:27  No man can enter into a strong man's house, and spoil his goods, except he will first bind the strongman; and then he will spoil his house. 

      Here we learn a lesson that in order to plunder one's house you must first BIND up the strongman.  While we realize in this particular passage this is referring to God binding up the strongman (Satan) and this is how Satan's house is plundered.  But if you carefully analyze the enemy -- you realize that he uses the same tactics on us!  Your house cannot be plundered -- unless you are first bound.   And then Satan can plunder your house!

    • Abraham and Issac: Pictures of the Resurrection, Part 2
      Shalom everyone,

      As we continue this series the next obvious sign of the resurrection in the Old Testament is the sign of Isaac and Abraham.

      Gen 22:1  After these things God tested Abraham and said to him, "Abraham!" And he said, "Here I am."
      Gen 22:2  He said, "Take your son, your only son Isaac, whom you love, and go to the land of Moriah, and offer him there as a burnt offering on one of the mountains of which I shall tell you."

      So God "tests" Abraham and as a perfect picture of the coming sacrifice of God's only begotten Son (Yeshua - Jesus) God instructs Issac to go and sacrifice his son, Issac.  Where does he say to offer him?  On Moriah -- the exact location of the Temple Mount.
