The time is very near when ALL churches [Hindu, Buddist, Mormans, Catholics, Christian Science, Messianics, Jews, etc.] will call themselves "Christians" under the leadership of the antichrist. But they will not bear a resemblance to the Early Christian Church. We are told if we love Him to keep His commandments, and by His power and grace do the works that He did and that anyone that does not obey Him is a liar and the truth is not in him. We are also told that His people perish for lack of knowledge. We must be like the noble Bereans that Paul taught who searched out every word through Scripture to know if it was right or wrong. We must go back before Constintine the Great to see where the "church" fell for Satan's detour. Pray and search His Word. Pride goes before a fall, do not let pride or rejudice blind you to the truth of what our Heavenly Father requires of us if we are to become His Kings and Priests. Trust no man, you must not lean on the arm of flesh. His Word and only His Word…backed up by history is our only safe ground. May our Almighty Deliverer deliver us from lies and deception. May we learn to be like the real Messiah as reported in all 66 books of the Bible. A clue; He was not Greek nor were His Disciples as the modern day churches would like you to believe. His earthly heritage was Jewish as was His culture which thought in terms of circular verses linear as the Greek culture. This fact makes a hugh difference in our concept of our Redeemer. Joel 3:6 prophesied 'the children of Judah and the children of Jerusalem have ye sold unto the Grecians [Greek Christianity] that ye might remove them far from their border [culture, understanding of faith].
Thank you for sharing the Word. This shut-down is not right or good but our Heavenly Father makes good of all thing for those who love Him. Pastor Doug, I was watching a multitude of your sermons today and in one you were talking about is having more than one wife His will and you brought up Isaiah 4:1. I would like to share what our Redeemer gave to me concerning that text. Isaiah 4:1 KJV "And in that day [nearly always refers to the Last Days] seven [represents ALL] women [represents the churches] shall take hold of one man [claim to be followers of one man, Christ] saying, We will eat our own bread [food i.e.doctrine] and wear our own apparel [self-righteousness instead of His robe of righteousness] only let us be called by thy name [Christians] to take away our reproach [cover our sinfulness]." Our Saviour told us that many would come to Him in that day saying didn't we do this and that great thing in Your name but He will say, "Go away, I never knew you." We know the persecution of the saints is coming soon and who will it be that persecutes us thinking they do the will of the Father but those who are closest to us. As time nears we have a great work to do in intersessory prays for the people who walk in blindness. While most don't want to know the truth there is that remnant that have been restrained that our prayers are for.
