An utter dependence on God is a common trait that I’ve observed in almost every on-fire remnant believer I’ve known, and I bet you’ve found this to be true as well. The word that comes to mind is: yielding. It’s a yielding of our desires, ambitions, and plans to the will of God.

John prepared the way for Jesus. Similarly, there are men today preparing the way for Antichrist. Yuval Noah Harari is a history professor, best-selling author, and World Economic Forum speaker, who has a particular disdain for the Bible and any notion of a living God. We’ll see how he and others like him are deceiving and being deceived as they prepare the way for Antichrist.

The ministry of Jesus began in the streets, “as Jesus was going along.” The Holy Spirit moved from a place to a people on the day of Pentecost, but we keep trying to put the “kingdom” back into a building, where most of what we call “ministry” happens in the building.

Preaching a different gospel, that was the very thing Paul warns against. A different gospel seeking the approval of man….not God.

Hell is not a popular subject, but it’s one that demands our attention. Unfortunately, it is a subject rarely discussed in churches today. That is a shame…given the eternal consequences and the reality of hell.

If we are to teach, preach, and disciple biblically, we must break ranks and not emulate what is being done by many leaders in the church growth movement.
