Imagine if The Lord returned today!
Imagine if the clock ran out and our time as The Church to fulfill His Great Commission ended!
Would He say to The Western Church and The Churches in other parts of the world that took on the spirit of the Western Church, "Well Done"?
When held up to The Great Commission that The Lord Jesus gave us and the example men like The Apostle Paul left us , will the spirit we followed and allowed to guide our operating systems be proven to be His Spirit or the spirit of this worlds ways.
This posting is not meant to answer that for you. It is simply meant to cause the reader to reach into The Word and The Ministry of Jesus and hold up His Standard against the standard we have held for many ,many years now.
Consider this. We hold up men and women that display simple healing miracles as celebrities and worthy to live like kings in this world. When Jesus marveled at the unbelief of His hometown, because He could only heal a few sick people . The spirit that has attached to The Church makes healing a few sick people a multimillion dollar corporation , and builds "schools of the supernatural" , creates massive media entities and invest in millions of dollars of special effects lighting and dazzling displays, all with the promise of a few people getting healed, and some bible teaching.
Is this The Great Commission Jesus sent His Church to fulfill?
I don't want to make a list of all that might be wrong with the modern church and all that the spirit that hides so cleverly in the shadows has brought in to keep us weak and lacking Pentecostal Power to be true witnesses of His Resurrection. For now I just want you the reader to consider that we all may have allowed our vision to be clouded and The Lords Glory to be replaced by something else.
Are there enough people that will bring their hearts and minds back to the original root of our faith. Not our denomination, not Rome, not the early church fathers (some of whom believed and said some wicked things) but to The Foundations! The Revelation of Christ, The Word of God, The Spirit of God and the example of ministry that Jesus and The First Church left us (ACTS-The Epistles).
We do this not by attacking the church, but through prayer and intersession. We seek The Lords will to be done completely and intensely. We reach out in The Spirit, under Christ and allow groaning that can not be uttered to pray on earth what is being willed from Gods Throne. We don't act as if we know the answers, rather we humbly acknowledge we know nothing but Christ crucified and long only to see His Will Done.
I will end with something that has been burning like a fire in my spirit.
In many places Gods Will is not being done. Ignorance has been allowed for a long season. Blindness has been permitted for a time. Prepare your hearts for that season and time to end, Be ready to shift into what The Holy Spirit will do on earth before the great and terrible day of The Lord.
