Praise the Lord God Almighty!

Amen! Amen! Amen! Unity of faith: one Lord, one faith, one baptism…We must stand true if we will receive the crown.

Those who sigh and cry (which is being done publicly for how else would it be known that they are sighing and crying) because of the abominable things being done receive the seal of God. The problem is that Satan has convinced the church that we are not to: judge or point out sin. We can only rebuke public sins privately and not publicly like it is supposed to be. We cannot warn someone for that is hate speech. We need to be inclusive. God is a god of LOVE only-no judgment. The Bible was culturally influenced therefore not to be the source of our beliefs, and we need to be socially and culturally relevant so out with the “old covenant ” and in with the “new”… where the Ten Commandments don’t apply. To name a few…

1 Timothy 5:19-20 is something that needs to be done. Achan’s sin (sin of an individual) resulted in corporate punishment; all Israel suffered for his sin in taking the accursed thing. His judgment was done publicly even though his sin was done in secrecy. We will be punished corporately for what we tolerate of the evil within our church and when this takes place people will be wondering why? Because we knew about the baptism of the active lesbian into the church at Chico, CA, …silence on the part of leadership…we knew about the transgender elder at Hollywood church,…silence again…we knew about other wrongdoing not addressed and even tolerated and celebrated by the church …silence…and leadership and laity did NOTHING, ABSOLUTELY NOTHING! And the FEW who did speak up were slighted, dismissed, labeled; whatever it took to SHUT them up. No one who took part by their actions or consent in these events was fired, no one was publicly rebuked…Silence is all you hear…

Laity, your ‘vote’ comes by way of tithes and offerings….Please understand that Jesus commended WHAT the widow gave, Not WHERE she gave it. As a friend of mine, John K. said, Rose, what is the shepherd’s duty to the sheep? Protecting, guiding, leading, caring…Now what is the obligation of the sheep to the shepherd? The faithful shepherd gets the milk and the wool. Now given our current situation within the church, ask yourself the following question…Does the sheep feed and provide their wool (resources as in money) to the shepherds who are beating them and eating them? Think about it!

One last comment: Watchmen , pick up your sword and blow the trumpet…do what Ezekiel 3:17 tells us to do! If we do not risk all as queen Esther did, salvation will come from another way, but we will be lost because he who is Unfaithful in the LEAST, WILL be unfaithful in much.

Stand strong brothers and sisters. Stand on the SURE foundation of God’s word. Every word of God is pure and he is a shield to those that trust in Him.
