JESUS THE CHRIST MINISTRIES

The full Counsel Newsletter - No 215

AND ABRAHAM SAID TO HIS YOUNG MEN...STAY HERE WITH THE DONKEY, THE LAD AND I WILL GO YONDER AND ......WORSHIP....AND WE WILL COME BACK TO YOU........................................GENESIS 22:5.

TRUE WORSHIP?

True worship in its purest form is what we have told us by scripture even in the above scripture Genesis 22:5. All our singing, dancing, jumping and giving is all in vain and but a clanging cymbal if it has not come from the person who has put the Christ in his rightful position above all and all things including family as we have read above.......(click here).

So we see that the worship that Abraham offered God was his dear little son that he loved so much but not as much as he loved God how about you???

Brian Houston of Hillsong Australia spoke about true worship only recently .....21/3/2004 and his depth and understanding was very much limited by his usual mentioning of people with their mistakes and all can still worship God.

This is true, providing Brian is not calling sin a mistake,
I wonder if he is?......it's a common term around the pentecostal/evangelical paddocks these days.......calling sin a mistake. Let us remember that mistakes are an unconscious thing, known sin is conscious and unrepented known sin is damnable.

This church talk and cliches really amuse me at times. Have you ever heard the human cliche that says.......................................... .........a church that is healthy grows!??????....although not in scripture,it is very popular today but by no means true........example...

One very well known and admired pentecostal (AOG - Australian Christian Churches) church leader (Frank Houston/deceased), who ran one of the biggest churches in Sydney and Australia was caught out having a homosexual relationship with a teenager and that church was apparently growing like no other church at that particular time. Who was drawing these people to this church (and all the others) with a leader who was bound by a homosexual spirit?.....was it the holy spirit?..........I believe not!

A church that is healthy grows! Ministers have tried to push that pig trough cliche down my throat for years but holy ghost tells me different. Holy ghost tells me that churches will empty as we draw near to Jesus' coming, true healthy churches anyway. The one world church will flourish with its hybrid, mixed bag, no holds bared doctrines while the faithful are bearing his, Jesus reproach outside the gate. What is his reproach?......despised, rejected by men and women, people hiding from you and no one exalting you..............Isaiah 53:3....(click here).

So much for the cliche........a healthy church grows!.....the doctrines of men and women are no match for the unchanging truth, Jesus. This very same church leader who was caught in  homosexuality was the man who endorsed Steve Penny an AOG pastor of the Sunshine Coast as being a prophet and recommended him to the church. Mr Penny is known along the Sunshine Coast Queensland as the .....prosperity prophet....who commands spirits of trickle flow to leave churches so monies will come flooding in.

Are you offering up.....true worship......to God or does your worship come from the heart of the ......healthy church denomination?.. ............Father is looking for peoples who will worship him in spirit and truth only.............amen.
