I am really having the
time, of my life writing this blog. I never thought that I would write
anything. I was already burning out with writing, what I was writing about
before. However writing about Jesus is, the greatest thing, which I could ever
write about. I have the privilege, of telling the world, about the most
important issue, that they will ever hear about, and they absolutely need in
their lives, because without Jesus, they remain dead!!
Now that is a thought, but
it is true. You could not have made me believe, that this was true, back in my
destructive days. I thought that I was
alive, and this was pure foolishness to talk, in this kind of way. I thought
that I was having way too much fun, trying to kill myself, living this
destructive lifestyle, that I was living. My friend, what I am saying to you is
that, I was a hellion, and actually I am sugar coating that statement!!
John 5:24 Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that heareth
my word, and believeth on him that sent me, hath everlasting life, and shall
not come into condemnation; but is passed from death unto life.
Ain’t that something? I wasn’t the only dead person walking
around. Every one of us, which was ever born of a woman, was born with a
Spiritual still birth. We were all born Spiritually dead, as dead can be. There
was no way around it, but that is not the bottom line. We don’t have to remain
as walking corpses, because there is a solution, but only one.
James, are you saying,
that as Christians, we should go through our neighborhoods, and invite the
walking dead into church? Not really.
Even though, that would not be a bad idea, and there are plenty out there. Jesus
made a remark about the harvest, in the book of John.
John 4:35 Say not ye, There are yet four months, and then cometh harvest?
behold, I say unto you, Lift up your eyes, and look on the fields; for they are
white already to harvest.
I would never attempt to
steal, the thunder from, the King of kings, and the Lord of lords. He was as
right when He said it back then, as He is in saying it now. I was thinking
that, we might want to start a little more local, in our efforts. There are a
lot of Christians, who don’t realize that the mission field begins, as soon as
we drive from, the church property. I have saw signs that state that fact.
I would like to propose a
new plan for your consideration. Not that anything was wrong, of inferior with
the old plan. It just seems that, we need to tighten the lines, of our mission
field. Now, you lost me
James!!
How can we possible tighten the lines, of the mission field? Surely, you meant to say loosen, and not
tighten. Nope. I said what I meant to
say.
The problem with most, if
not all churches, is the fact that they are losing the battle, before they even
step out of the door, to enter onto the mission field. We really need to
tighten, our mission field lines to start in the pews, that we occupy. Do we really understand the amount of
folks, that belong to the same church that we belong, and sit in the same
Sunday school class, that we sit in, and even teach some of them, who never
gave their hearts to Jesus?
I am convinced that, some
of them think, that they have a relationship with God. Satan has blinded then,
because that is what he does, and he does this very well. He has been doing
this treacherous trickery, for so long, and he is so subtle with his dealings,
that there will be few that notice, and none of those who are being deceived,
will be able to tell. Even those that are true Christians will think, that they
are seeing a fluke, or that their eyes are playing tricks on them.
If it’s that bad, then
what can we do? I really don’t see but one thing, that we
can do, from this point. However, it is a powerful thing. We can pray that,
Holy Spirit reveals their sin to those, that have been blinded. In the parable
of the wheat and tares, Jesus bring out the point, that in the field (world),
that we should grow together, until the end time. We are not talking about in
the world. We are talking about our churches!!
If you are a true child of
God, it is possible to see entire churches that have become so corrupt, that
they no longer serve the Living God. This
is one of the major reasons, that our church has limited power. All we need to
see that is go back to the first church written about in the book of Acts.
Acts 2:1 And when the day of Pentecost was fully come, they were
all with one accord in one place.
I know that church was
full of awesome power, but the folks had all things in common. They were all on
the same page. Every one of them had received their Salvation through Jesus
Christ. There was nobody inside that upper room who had not believed. Am I saying that, we need to get back, in
that way? No. What I am saying is before we can even
get close to that point; there is something that we must do first.
We need to help our
brothers, and sisters who are setting next to us every time, that the doors to
our church are opened receive their Salvation.
Nobody has any need to go to hell, because of our perfect sacrifice, that
Jesus made for us. All I want the readers to do is acknowledge, that there are
folks, who seriously need our prayerful intervention. Without our prayers, they
are damned. Damned? Yeah,…..That’s right,…….It that bad!! Damned is damned, and all those that are
without Jesus are damned!! Shall we
pray? Ain’t Holy Spirit Awesome?
….Much Love
