FALSE GOSPELS
Then, after all that, people are told that Jesus Christ is the way for THEM, and that there are other ways. After all, God is "just". (And by sad, perhaps even unintentional innuendo, they are calling a liar because he said "I am THE way, THE truth, and THE life - NO MAN cometh to the Father except through me!"). Biblical ignorance is huge, just like historical, economic, and political ignorance is the rule in our nation.
My friends, there is other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved. Everything else is a pretense. WIDE is the way that leads to damnation, but NARROW is the way that leads to eternal life.
There are people who call themselves Christians who refuse to oppose= abortion, who refuse to preach against homosexuality, fornication, adultery, and divorce for any and all reasons. They will defend using bad language and going to R movies. They will justify spending 30% or more of their time on the job surfing the net or making phone calls for personal projects (grand theft any way you look at that - thousands every year). They will scream at you if you oppose evil leaders. They will call you names. In quieter times, they will mock what you know God has spoken to you.
I heard Saturday night a nice Christian man state that all the churches would be coming together in the end time for the glory of God. I wish, and I am sure you wish as well. I have been working toward this for much of my life. However, my goal is in facilitating the removal through Christ of all artificial barriers in the church - ethnicity, economics, politics, preferences, etc. MY desire for unity, however, does NOT extend to ignoring the fundamental doctrines of the faith. Can two walk together except they be agreed? Not in marriage, not in business, and not in the Church.
What that man said IS happening in a way - but it is happening in a different way from what he hoped. Churches are increasingly spouting universalist rhetoric. They are dropping God's requirements for living a holy and sanctified life. They arr believing the ever-changing fallible ideas of fallen man instead of the eternal unchanging truths of a holy God! They are trashing the gifts of the Holy Spirit, EVEN in Pentecostal circles "for the sake of growth" no less! What hogwash!
In these last and evil days, what we see in our nation and in other nations is mirrored in the church. A time of purging is at hand. A time of separation is here- those who are loyal to Christ vs. those whose loyalties are first to personalities and organizations.
Where are YOU in all of this? Are You Truly in Christ? Find out by listening to my preaching message of the same name at www.kingdomgospelministries.org. May God lead you into all truth.
