| ONE WOULD NOT
EXPECT..... |
|
When a person has a true revelation of, and relationship with, God
through
His Son Jesus Christ by the power of the Holy Spirit,
ONE WOULD EXPECT it to show through his or her life - their life-style,
habits, interests, outlook, involvements, aspirations, devotions, demeanour and outward
presentation etc.
ONE WOULD NOT EXPECT such persons to be contaminated by and conforming
to, much less saturated with, the spirit of this world..........."The lusts of the
flesh, the lust of the eye and the pride of life." |
|
|
NEITHER WOULD ONE EXPECT there to be a stampede to
the pulpit every Sunday to pronounce to the unfaithful and adulteration of Scripture, and
a justification and appeasement for sin, with such doctrines of devils as 'Judge not',
'Once saved always saved', 'No one is perfect - in obedience to God.......just
forgiven'; and conversation, being born from above, is ' not a deliverance from the
nature of sin.'
NEITHER WOULD ONE EXPECT a man of God to be selling his soul or competing
with the world for ' the cares of this life, the deceitfulness of riches, and the lust of
other things.' |
...................a
rubbish-tin |
|
religion! |
|
|
NEITHER WOULD the women be looking more like Jezebel
every day from the eye-brows (or hair-do) downwards, or harlots from the toe-nails
upwards! - competing for the attention of every wanton eye; nor with the
adornments disapproved by Scripture.
NOR WOULD women further be perverting their womanhood by tolerating the
degrading influences of so-called 'feminism' (anti-feminism) or anything which smells of
the like, including mother Eve back in the pulpit, and masculine forms of non-dress! |
NOR WOULD ONE EXPECT the 'holy' Christian church
to be a haven, indeed refuge, for sin and corruption and the fallen nature of the
unregenerate man, under cover of popularity, and a Christian profession of 'faith' and
claim on 'the Blood'...............in the name of love, forgiveness and unconditional
grace;
NOR a promotional centre for the carnality of this world........in
the name of Christian prosperity;
NOR an ecumenical slurry-pot for all 'Christian' (and unchristian)
religions...... in the name of equality, tolerance and Christian love! |
|
|
- But let ONE TRUE PROPHET OF GOD arise and take beatings, bashings,
burnings, insults and isolation............and you will hear the Word of God calling a
rubbish-tin religion (as traditional, evangelical and pentecostal as it may be) back
to Biblical standards and experience.
|
BIBLICAL MORALS, holiness and separation, from the
spirit of the world, unto God, will not be bartered for supernatural wizardry or a
holy-rolling performance, entertainment shows or gospel rock concerts.
The HYBRID RUBBISH-TIN GOSPEL seed will be sorted out from the Seed of
the true Word of God by which a man / person is 'born from above'.
It will not be NEW CLOTH to an old garment, nor NEW WINE
in old wine-skins, but will be NEW CREATURES in Christ.
To follow Jesus will mean TAKING UP ONE'S CROSS, not one's religious
comfort-cushion; and 'THE FLESH WILL BE CRUCIFIED with Christ, with the
affections and lusts' thereof.
His only following would be THE HOLY REMNANT, those OUTSIDE
the traditional, evangelical and pentecostal CAMP. |

The MIGHTY DOLLAR will not feature as of any
importance, as though we served a decrepit depleted destitute God, whose ability
to function depended on such faithless carnality.
Yes, he will be, as ever, "A VOICE IN THE WILDERNESS," with "REPENT"
first on the list, followed by "THE FAN which thoroughly purges
God's floor in preparing the WHEAT for the garner, but the CHAFF
for unquenchable fire."
He will sort out the CAINS from the ABELS, the TARES
from the WHEAT, the SHEEP from the GOATS,
the HOT from the LUKEWARM, the SAYER
from the DOERS, the Jesus-miracle-workers from those who are workers of
righteousness..............not iniquity.
He will be as in the days of NOAH, when 8 were saved, and LOT,
when 3 were delivered.
So we click on to "THUS SAYS THE LORD", and stand against the PLUMBLINE
of 'what the Spirit is saying to the church today' (Revelation 2&3), that we might
truly be THE BRIDE OF CHRIST (rather than the ecumenical whore) 'WITHOUT
SPOT AND BLEMISH; with robes washed in the Blood of the Lamb and KEPT
UNSPOTTED FROM THE WORLD, lest (in His sight especially), we walk naked, and they
see our shame, and our name be BLOTTED OUT of the Book of Life' -if it
was ever there!........................
THUS SAYS THE LORD! - not man! that it be not a rubbish-tin religion, but
THE WORDS OF ETERNAL LIFE through Jesus Christ,
IN WORD AND DEED! AND SPIRIT AND TRUTH! |
| ONE WOULD NOT
EXPECT............... |
.............a
rubbish-tin |
|
religion! |
