What I’m aiming for is a holy sense of urgency. Roughly 175,000 people die and go into eternity every day. People’s souls are literally hanging in the balance between heaven and hell. We don’t have a moment to waste.
Carnal Christianity
“For rebellion is as the sin of witchcraft, and stubbornness is as iniquity and idolatry.” Saul saved the valuable spoil and destroyed only what was judged worthless by their “good sense”. God has judged it worthless, Saul did not think so.
Instead of teaching the Word, they tell stories. Instead of warning about hell and a lost eternity, they talk about how you can have whatever you want and be whatever you want to be.
God doesn’t want us to feel better about ourselves, but to have a realistic view of how wretched we really are. Unfortunately, many people are being led astray by churches and leaders who are presenting a different Jesus to the world.
The problem is that the Bible never promises anyone your best life now, but it promises believers that in this life we will have tribulation, that Jesus is coming soon and he will repay us according to what we have done.
We want to focus on here is the elephant in the middle of the evangelical livingroom. The elephant in the room is the continued ignoring of sound end time Bible prophecy teaching.
The holiday season magnifies the same desire to satisfy the lust of the flesh, lust of the eyes, and the pride of life we see throughout the rest of the year.
I’m simply jealous for the rightful place of ‘church’ and ‘fellowship’ in Christian life because many are becoming social hubs, not places of prayer, evangelism, and discipleship.
Men, Satan wants to devour you, destroy your family, wreck you marriage, and obliterate your children.
