The biggest indictment that has been raised against the church is that its talk has always been louder than its walk. Basically, it has only delivered a portion of its promise. Yada, yada, yada, blah, blah, blah.
Step right up, say a little prayer, get your ticket for eternity, and then live like hell (because of course, you have your ticket), and then just sit back and wait for the gospel ship (whatever that is) to wisk you away.
Behind the clamoring scenes of the religious parade of who has the biggest ministry, the pompous veneer of condescending self-righteousness, and celebrity showdom of scamming preachers who are little more than Hollywood wannabees, something powerful is emerging.
There is an awakening among a generation of disillusioned young people who have rejected the status quo, and are searching for the genuine faith of those who actually believe what they say and are willing to go to any length to allow the reality of truth to be manifest in their lives.
We now have enough light to see through the facade of “cheap talk” that has produced an impotent church. Shallow commitment will not usher in the Kingdom. If you can’t back up what you say by lifestyle, be quiet. If you just want to run around and shout about the devil, we are not listening. If you are afraid of what it will cost, get out of the way, the Kingdom life is not for you.
We want to live with purpose and die with honor. It is now time for all those lovers of truth and life to come together for a new movement of righteousness in the earth.
Escapist theology has pervaded the church. It’s time to realize that we were left here to impact the world, to usher in the Kingdom, and to engage with our King in walking out our destiny.
Jesus said there was wheat and tares since day 1
and He would seperate it.When Christians try to detail the church they make a scene. It is not a Bible Church LEAVE.,,,,,,,,,
Mat 13:30 Let both grow together until the harvest: and in the time of harvest I will say to the reapers, Gather ye together first the tares, and bind them in bundles to burn them: but gather the wheat into my barn.
I think you missed the point, big dog. We’re talking about walking the walk of faith and going beyond lip-service Chrisitianity.
By the way, “making a scene” is what we’re all about. If you didn’t know, just check a few more articles.
