Guest Biblicist Posted November 12, 2008 Share Posted November 12, 2008 Hopefully this will inspire people to use the Freedom of Speach our Founding Father's afforded us, and tell people why we need to believe in God. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

America has been systematically removing God from everything for years and the sad thing is no one is stopping them. We allowed prayer to be taken out of school and look at the kids of today. We allowed prayer to be stopped in most assemblies as not to 'force God" on anyone and look at society today. We allowed abortions, gay rights and rights for criminials and look at the society we have today. We as a nation glorify bad behavior and don't call sin "sin" because it's not politically correct. We should be worried about being morally right, not politically correct. This is just one more step toward total rejection of God in this country and until the church (the body of Christ) is willing to get on their knees and praying for divine intervention can we really be surprised by this.

I am moved to tears when I think about the reality of living in this sinful world without God. The suffering, the misery, the deception, the degradation, and the lack of love that comes from Godlessness. As an evangelist I have recently had to adjust my entire ministry approach as the Holy Spirit is revealing more truth to me. I mean I'm all for most of the current evangelism methods but for me it was just not my calling. I've tried most methods from tracts, door to door visits, jail and hospital, way of the master methods and such. Nothing stops the urging of the Holy Spirit to do something more..... Then God began to reveal the simplistic truth of his will, the Bible, and his Kingdom. I have become extremely fundemental in my teaching. I stopped disecting the bible bit to bit and looked at it from a whole prospective. I asked God to help me see it from the big picture view (more likely the way he does) and some very intresting truths were instantly revealed and are easily seen. First I realized his "big picture will" and that always has been for his children to turn to him and trust him whole-heartedly. Then I began to see my true relationship to him, adopted son, joint heir with Christ and ambassador to his Kingdom. I began to realize the true power in the name of Jesus Christ and the authority he has entrusted us with by that name. I discovered that I am to be light in darkness and stop seeking the sin in others and even to stop trying to correct sinfullness in anyone but myself. We are supposed to "be the church" not just "go to a church". If we look for darkness in others we are only seeing the speck of the true sin within them anyway. Suddenly several scriptures come to light mainly "get the beam out of your own eye so that you may see clearly to get the speck out of your brothers eye." Another is "if the light within the darkness is darkness then how dark that darkness must be." We are children of God called into the light in order to be Gods light within a darkened, blind and sinfilled world. I now teach that we are to be light seekers and that in the blackest hearted individual there is a light no matter how dim and depressed that we can see if we will seek it and then we can nurture that one good thing into a glimmer of hope that can be kindled into a real flame and a life can be saved. If a lost person sees me working on my own sin within me. If he sees me tending the flame of Gods light within me. When he sees that example being set forth to him then he can think about himself and eventually be persuaded to make a real decision for righteousness. True conversion only comes from being able to make a choice and that from the information being provided. Too often have I heard the unsaved say they would rather perish than to spend eternity with the so called christians they knew. This is directly related to them witnessing the darkness within some church goers. They have to be able to witness the light of Gods true church those of us who are sincere and who do love our neighbor enough to try our best to keep ourselves un-spotted from the world at large. Sorry this message is not able to be conveyed in short form as i now know what I must preach for the rest of my term here on earth.

The further a country gets away from God and the worse it gets in morals, politics, whatever, the more those Christians who are serious for the Lord start to show out as being different: unworldly rather than worldly, utterly committed rather than not greatly committed, and so on. At that stage they will likely come under persecution, something Jesus promised us! John 15:20 et al. I remember when Communism took over in China and banned Christianity, and we all thought, "How terrible!" And it was. BUT... God is never mocked, and true Christians cannot ever be stopped. Today the strongest church in the world is the Underground House Churches in China. They are still being persecuted - hence 'Underground'. They have to mean business cos they can be arrested and worse at any time. And they DO mean business. One in every 10 Chinese is a serious Christian in this church - over one hundred million of them!!! Can any other country boast that many Christians willing to give their lives for Christ every day of their lives? I would love to live long enough and have the health to visit this church and see how it is they manage to live the utterly committed lives that they do! - BM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
