In the end times, seems to be 2 tracks going on, as the <Lord will be saving out His own as never before, but the world shall become darker and welcome AntiChrist!
You are exactly correct!
It is quite common to hear the following sentiments today from God’s people
–
“The glory of God has left my church.”
“Jesus is no longer at the center of our fellowship!”
“My church has aligned itself with the ways of man and the world.”
“My church functions more like a club, than an expression of the life of
Jesus Christ!”
By much spiritual evidence and observation, the ‘church on the corner’ is
either dying or already dead. This is obvious and apparent to any with eyes
to see, to those with true spiritual insight.
Something I have been trying to teach to my church over the last 2 years is this simple question
– “What if all we Christians had was God”????????
Not His things, nor blessings per say, but only Him. Not a hundred fired up preachers or
prophets telling us about Him, but only Him. Alone with Christ, and He
asking us “Do you love Me more than these?” as He did to Peter. “Am I enough
for you, or are there other things you desire?”
My friends, this is essentially what the wilderness is for us today as it was for Abraham, Moses and those who followed them–
to provide our Lord with the answer to this question.
Have you ever pondered the idea that the modern church – with all of its
structure and activity and paraphernalia and money – is endeavoring to answer
questions that God has probably never even asked???????????
Something to think about.
