How deep is your knowledge base? The depth of your base of knowledge will influence your sense of the problem before you.
Citing thoughts from the prophet Malachi Coach points out that the fathers of America have not taught their children how to have a relationship with the heavenly father. We’re in the mess we’re in because Father’s haven’t passed the torch to their children. Spiritual truths have been passed on by the women of America, not the fathers.
Go ye therefore and TEACH ALL NATIONS. Our job is not to get everyone saved. The Great Commandment is to TEACH THEM. Go ye and teach them because all power has been given unto Jesus Christ. We must turn our backs on ourselves and follow Jesus.
We love to talk about the Great Commission, but not the Great Commandment to TEACH THEM.
Jesus teaches us not to take personal offense in Matthew 5. Satan is daddy to lots of people on earth. We must not take personal offense when the devil’s kids get mad at us. They aren’t mad at us. They are mad at our daddy – God.
Well, boys, you have correctly identified the misgivings of whom Jesus referred to as “the children of disobedience”; so why are you so surprised? What do you expect from those who have turned away from their Heavenly Father and, by default, are now under management and ownership of their father, the devil?
Get past the indignation, and turn that critical eye towards the PLANK in the eye of “the church”. My little church in my little town is having a baby shower for yet another illegitimate child born to an unwed teenage child of a longtime family WITHIN our church. That’s right, WITHIN our church. How is the so-called body of Christ any different from the fatherless, demon-directed, given to divorcing, ungodly and unsaved public? Answer: NO difference.
Now, I find something deeply disturbing about that. What kind of witness is that to the unsaved? When you get past the thin veneer of false religion of today’s “cultural Christians”, where’s the difference between the church-attending folks and the worldly heathen? At least the heathen is being honest about living their sinful life out in the open. We, on the other hand, should know better. I can see why disillusioned people are falling away from the “church” in droves. Can you blame them?
Knowing our identity in Christ, AND THEN DOING WHAT HE COMMANDED and maintaining a real spiritual relationship with Him are the only things that will redeem us from the old way of sin and death. I’m calling out EVERY person (including myself) who professes Christ as their Lord and Savior to quit being such damned hypocrites and lead an examined and disciplined life in submission to GOD. I am really sick of the hypocrisy by fake “Christians” so rampant in today’s society. If a strong believer like me is pissed off about the hypocrisy of today’s church, how do you think the unsaved see the church? What kind of testimony is that? In other words, why in the H-ee-double LL would an unsaved world want to become Christians, anyway? “Come join a bunch of hypocritical, holier than thou, poor victimized little wimpy religious people playing church”…I think not !
Clean up the Church from the INSIDE OUT. Oh, and you won’t be popular in your “church”. Get past it 🙂
