How Far Has American Churches Drifted?

April 5, 2009 by admin Leave a Comment

There is a very interesting study in 2Samuel: 10-11 on our human character in loyalty and compassion. When we study this message and apply it to our society here in America & to our Churches how many people today do we see living with such amenities while the one’s who are doing the work are doing without?

 How many people would show the same character as Uriah in filling guilty if he were to live with such comfort while those that served him did without while serving their country?

 Then the sad part of this message is how King David had everything but it wasn’t enough. So he even took more in not only the wife of Uriah but his life in order to serve his selfish desires. 

 This is a sad story in history but it teaches us valuable lessons in our human character in how we are to be loyal, show compassion, and not serve our selfish desires in wanting to take something that is not ours for our own personal gain. How far has our American society fallen to this sinful nature?  How many churches are sitting with large bank accounts while others in their congregation are doing without?

 Is this how we are to act in storing our temporary treasures and basing our security in how much we have in material things verses what have in the faith of God? Where we place our faith is vital to our Christian belief and if we do not help others in giving up something of ourselves for the sake of others then we need to recheck our faith…Amen

True Christian Faith

April 4, 2009 by admin Leave a Comment

specdel_cvr_3d_med3d  In James 2 we are taught that if we treat someone any different from another based on their background or what they may temporarily have in material means then we are showing discrimination and this is guided by evil motives…

  Our society and even our churches by majority have fallen to this separation within the body of Christ by not holding True to the Word of God and treating our neighbor as thyself. This world has fallen to numbers and to worldly possessions while neglecting the true treasures in life through Jesus Christ. True Christianity is not about what we wear, what we have, what we look like, or about the size of our congregation because if we put our focus on these things then they are as useless as lukewarm water.

True Christianity is about keeping our perspective under God through Jesus Christ in understanding that we are all guilty of sin while respecting the purpose of self discipline to reach higher levels in the eternal life through Jesus Christ!

  There is so much joy and strength in our hearts when we learn to apply the Word of God to our walk of life without causing separation in the body of other believers. Not everyone may dress the same, look the same or have the same understanding. But we are to recall that every True Christian has the same eternal destination while learning how to respect each other for the roll which we all carry in the kingdom of God. For in James 2:14 he said,” What good is it, dear brother’s and sister’s if you say you have faith but don’t show it in your actions?”

 We all can look good on on the outside but what really matters is how we look on the inside…So, I ask you today if you were turned inside out is there something that you would not want to reveal and that you may need to get rid of? For we all can come clean and be forgiven through the blood of Jesus Christ in true repentance from the heart in Gods mercy and grace…Amen

Voice of Truth In America

March 29, 2009 by admin 1 Comment

 Over the last 30 years American churches have fallen weak due to previous men of God aging like Billy Graham and Adrian Rogers. These men of God did not allow the society to change their message and they lived a life in spreading the Word of God that once stood up against sin in this world without conforming to the crowd based upon what they wanted to hear. During this time frame American Presidents leaned on these men for leadership advice to help hold this country together and it is plain to see now how we have fallen away from God because our leaders are paying more attention to self rather than to what is right by God in holding this country together.

 It is time our churches Wake Up and put aside our differences to join together for the sake of our children’s future! Do you want to know why our church voice has fallen weak? Because we have allowed the world in our church while not standing up against what is not right by God for our children’s future! Over the years and even today we sit around and debate over who is right wanting to show our own intellect while forgetting where our wisdom comes from.  It is time we quit arguing or debating over who is right and work together to revive this falling country. The way has already been given and there is no reason to argue over who is going to sit at the head of the  table because when we do this then we are setting ourselves up for a fall. Instead we should sit back and respect each person for the position which God has called them for and allow God to place His people where they serve best!

America Has Traded Its Birthright!!!

March 24, 2009 by admin 1 Comment

 There was once a time in this country of The United States of America that we built with quality that gave us a since of pride within this country. I can remember a time when we would not use tools made from Taiwan or foreign countries because they simply would not last.  Yes, our American products may have cost more but they far out lasted any imports that were brought here into this country.  Look at our furniture today coming in from China compared to what we used to build here before the doors were opened to NAFTA and the World Trade Organization. Our country has fallen to poor quality in caring more about the numbers than what we build and leave for our children.  Now look at where this has gotten us today…

 Are we that blinded to the facts in how we have traded our American birthright to the dollar and forgotten the foundation in which built and carried this country? What is taking place in our country is Biblical and paralells the lesson in Jacob receiving the blessing of Esau. It is time our President and other leaders Wake Up and begin to restore our jobs back in this country to overcome our current economic situation while building quality products that will lift the moral of every American!!!

End Times Prophecy

What Is To Come 

 Humans are like animals and the only difference is our ability to choose in our freewill the directions we travel. This is not something to debate but a fact from the Lord. We have seen this time and time again in history how humans will resort to all measures in the state of survival. We have witnessed plane crash survivors eating the flesh of humans to survive in extreme circumstances and we have seen people flock on the weak like buzzards when they are down.

 With this being said here is the message I received:

When you look at our cities this is compared to a feed troft for cattle. The cattle being the people have lived in the major cities while being dependant on man and living off of credit while it was being fed. Now that the credit is drying up the feed that fed the people have no where to go except to migrate in looking for anything else to graze upon. In time you are going to see people leaving major cities in search of work and food just as cattle when they leave for the pasture from the troft.  This first begins with the weak and then the strong.

 When cattle run out of feed what do they do? They return to the land to find anything they can.

May you have ears to hear what is being said and eyes to see the food that we all need ….Amen

Spiritual Revelations

Don’t be like Eli in 1st Samuel and miss something that has been given by God. If you recall with Eli he did not listen because the Word of God was rare in those days and he did not recognize what was taking place until he saw the persistence of Samuel…
