What churches MISS

 

Romans 1:11-12

King James Version

11 For I long to see you, 

that I may impart unto you 

some spiritual gift, 

to the end ye may be established;

12 That is, that I may be comforted 

together with you 

by the mutual faith 

both of you and me.


Many churches are "off".

They teach different doctrines.

Not of Christ.

Not like Christ.

Not as Christ.

Not by Christ.

Not for Christ.


That's a true danger in these most challenging times.

They don't talk about sin.

They talk about self.

They don't talk about the Rapture.

They talk about false revivals.

They don't talk about repentance.

They talk about reinventing.

They've taken GOD out of His church.

They've put self in His church.

Worse, they've unknowingly invited Satan in.

From CHRIST, to compromise, and chaos.


They've replaced the Bible with entertainment.

As if GOD's WORD doesn't suffice.

As if hip stuff would bring in the people.

And it does, but not the people GOD wants.

"The elect never truly fit in with the crowd."

-- Voddie Baucham

The Real Reason God’s Elect 

Don’t Fit In Church Anymore


Many souls are in danger of perishing.

All because they want the easy way.

The non-accountable way.

The popular way.

The trend-setting way.

The new normal way.


Such are modern churches today.

They have creativity, but not CHRIST.

They have entertainment, but not edification.

They have fun, but not fear of GOD.

They think they are "cool", but in fact, they are "cold".

How can churches like that bring your soul to JESUS?

How can they bring you to salvation?

They are sure paths to destruction.


Count me out of such a church.

Truth be told, I haven't found one yet.

One that is totally centered on CHRIST.

One that doesn't need decor, strobes, and bands.

One that doesn't need to entertain, to gather people.

One that doesn't blatantly raise funds, for pastor "projects".

Remember what JESUS warned, regarding the 7 churches.


I look to how JESUS taught.

In all truth, power, and simplicity.

Matthew 7:28-29

King James Version

28 And it came to pass, 

when Jesus had ended these sayings, 

the people were astonished at his doctrine:

29 For he taught them as one having authority, 

and not as the scribes.


JESUS never made a show of it.

He never called attention to self.

He called attention to GOD.

That we glorify GOD alone.

John 17:3

King James Version

3 And this is life eternal, 

that they might know thee the only true God, 

and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent.


He especially called us to repent.

Mark 1:15

King James Version

15 And saying, 

The time is fulfilled, 

and the kingdom of God is at hand: 

repent ye, 

and believe the gospel.


And to sin no more.

John 8:9-11

King James Version

9 And they which heard it, 

being convicted by their own conscience, 

went out one by one, 

beginning at the eldest, 

even unto the last: 

and Jesus was left alone, 

and the woman standing in the midst.

10 When Jesus had lifted up himself, 

and saw none but the woman, he said unto her, 

Woman, where are those thine accusers? 

hath no man condemned thee?

11 She said, No man, Lord. 

And Jesus said unto her, 

Neither do I condemn thee: 

go, and sin no more.


Satan is quick to distance you from the CROSS, the RESURRECTION, and from the BLOOD of the LAMB.

But those are the things that saved us from sin.

These are the parts that Satan wants out of CHRIST's churches -- the VERY gospel of JESUS CHRIST:

1 Corinthians 15:1-4

King James Version

15 Moreover, brethren, 

I declare unto you the gospel 

which I preached unto you, 

which also ye have received, 

and wherein ye stand;

2 By which also ye are saved, 

if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, 

unless ye have believed in vain.

3 For I delivered unto you first of all 

that which I also received, 

how that Christ died for our sins 

according to the scriptures;

4 And that he was buried, 

and that he rose again the third day 

according to the scriptures:



CHRIST's enemy has infiltrated churches.

And they've succumbed.

But there is an elect.

And we can't be fooled.

If we stay true to CHRIST.

And if we remain in His WORD.

In all its glorious truth, holiness, and simplicity.

Acts 2:44-47

King James Version

44 And all that believed were together, 

and had all things common;

45 And sold their possessions and goods, 

and parted them to all men, as every man had need.

46 And they, continuing daily 

with one accord in the temple, 

and breaking bread from house to house, 

did eat their meat with gladness 

and singleness of heart,

47 Praising God, 

and having favour with all the people. 

And the Lord added to the church daily 

such as should be saved.


Lastly, I urge you to listen, and savor this fact-filled, 31-minute video.

Don't look at the supporting images.

Just close your eyes, and listen closely.

It reveals to you the state of churches today.

This is probably the BEST video on it, and I thank the HOLY SPIRIT for leading me to it today.

I take great responsibility, as born again watchman, to deliver truth-filled material to you each day.

All through GOD's GRACE, as always.

And in JESUS' Name -- Amen.

Best BIBLICAL brains


 1 Timothy 4:1-2

King James Version

4 Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, 

that in the latter times 

some shall depart from the faith, 

giving heed to seducing spirits, 

and doctrines of devils;

2 Speaking lies in hypocrisy; 

having their conscience seared 

with a hot iron;


It is not often we witness a bunch of awesome born again pastors gather together in a two-hour video, and discuss these critical end times, according to Scripture.

But in the video above, you will hear at least SIX of them:

Host -- Curt Reed

Panelists:

L.A. Marzulli

Gary McKibben

J.B. Hixson

John Haller

Lee Brainard


You will hear them discuss about JESUS, Jerusalem, Israel, the antichrist, aliens, apostle Paul, Paula White, the new pope, Jesuits, Kissinger, America, president Trump, Iran, Turkey, president Putin, Russia, Islam, Palestine, France, Britain, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Abraham Accords, the nephilim, new age, Catholicism, Christians, Jews, and Gentiles.

Other amazing pastors for these end times are:

Dr. David R. Reagan

Dr. Charles F. Stanley

David Wilkerson

Amir Tsarfati

Brandon Hotlhaus

Mike Gendron

Carter Conlon

Jeff Kinley

Nathan E. Jones

Ken Ham


We also need to look into Messianic Jew, Jan Markell who hosts a lot of prophecy roundtables.

You will want to hear "Understanding the Times" sermons here.


We've all listened to these pastors, and featured them, since GOD made us born again in 2019.

The HOLY SPIRIT led us to them.

And now, we share them with you.

A JEW, a HINDU, and a POLITICIAN in Tennessee

 

Proverbs 15:15

King James Version

15 All the days of the afflicted are evil:

 but he that is of a merry heart 

hath a continual feast.


I thought I'd be writing a serious article today, but after listening to that short video above last night, SPIRIT and I promised to feature it this morning.

Why?

Because it's always good to laugh at ourselves.

Especially at politicians who are "fool" of themselves.

Word play intended.


We can only laugh if there's no ego.

That's what breaks the "ice".

And may form "bonds".

Knowing we are all perfectly imperfect beings.

Subject to our rigid cultures, and funny foibles.

And TONS of sins, which only JESUS can forgive.


Another hilarious take is a short video on world leaders.

Ever imagined them as "babies"?

Well, check and find out:

"World Leaders Reimagined as Babies"


See also the difference between Obama, and Trump:

"The REFRESHING president"


With the ability to lead, comes the ability to laugh.

Especially among politicians.

Not mocking each other.

But mostly laughing at self.

Humor melts egos.

When ego's gone, your heart is freed up.

You become real, free, honest, and childlike.

Not deluded in wanting to please all, and pleasing none.


SPIRIT and Scripture led me to a few verses on joy, laughter, and humor.

Our necessary balm for these crazy, chaotic days where demons abound.

Genesis 21:6-7

King James Version

6 And Sarah said, 

God hath made me to laugh, 

so that all that hear will laugh with me.

7 And she said, 

Who would have said unto Abraham, 

that Sarah should have given children suck? 

for I have born him a son in his old age.

(What she didn't say here is in her old age, too.

But that's what makes everything funny.

At least, to us.)


Job 8:19

King James Version

19 Behold, this is the joy of his way, 

and out of the earth shall others grow.


Job 8:20-21

King James Version

20 Behold, 

God will not cast away a perfect man, 

neither will he help the evil doers:

21 Till he fill thy mouth with laughing, 

and thy lips with rejoicing.


Psalm 4:6

King James Version

6 There be many that say, 

Who will shew us any good? 

Lord, lift thou up 

the light of thy countenance 

upon us.


Psalm 4:7

King James Version

7 Thou hast put gladness in my heart, 

more than in the time that their corn 

and their wine increased.


Psalm 16:11

King James Version

11 Thou wilt shew me the path of life: 

in thy presence is fulness of joy; 

at thy right hand there are pleasures 

for evermore.


Psalm 32:11

King James Version

11 Be glad in the Lord, and rejoice, ye righteous: 

and shout for joy, all ye that are upright in heart.


Psalm 126:1-3

King James Version

126 When the Lord turned again 

the captivity of Zion, we were like them that dream.

2 Then was our mouth filled with laughter, 

and our tongue with singing: 

then said they among the heathen, 

The Lord hath done great things for them.

3 The Lord hath done great things for us; 

whereof we are glad.


Psalm 126:4-6

King James Version

4 Turn again our captivity, O Lord, 

as the streams in the south.

5 They that sow in tears shall reap in joy.

6 He that goeth forth and weepeth, 

bearing precious seed, 

shall doubtless come again with rejoicing, 

bringing his sheaves with him.


Proverbs 15:13

King James Version

13 A merry heart maketh a cheerful countenance: 

but by sorrow of the heart the spirit is broken.


Ecclesiastes 3:4

King James Version

4 A time to weep, and a time to laugh; 

a time to mourn, and a time to dance;


Ephesians 5:4

King James Version

4 Neither filthiness, nor foolish talking, nor jesting, 

which are not convenient: 

but rather giving of thanks.


Ephesians 5:19-20

King James Version

19 Speaking to yourselves in psalms 

and hymns and spiritual songs, 

singing and making melody in your heart 

to the Lord;

20 Giving thanks always 

for all things unto God and the Father 

in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ;


Philippians 4:4

King James Version

4 Rejoice in the Lord always: 

and again I say, Rejoice.


And lastly, from JESUS:

Matthew 18:1-5

King James Version

18 At the same time 

came the disciples unto Jesus, saying, 

Who is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven?

2 And Jesus called a little child unto him, 

and set him in the midst of them,

3 And said, 

Verily I say unto you, 

Except ye be converted, 

and become as little children, 

ye shall not enter into the kingdom of heaven.

4 Whosoever therefore 

shall humble himself as this little child, 

the same is greatest in the kingdom of heaven.

5 And whoso shall receive 

one such little child in my name 

receiveth me.


Matthew 19:13-15

King James Version

13 Then were there brought unto him little children, 

that he should put his hands on them, and pray: 

and the disciples rebuked them.

14 But Jesus said, 

Suffer little children, 

and forbid them not, to come unto me: 

for of such is the kingdom of heaven.

15 And he laid his hands on them, 

and departed thence.


For our last round of laughter, check this three-minute video showing how turtles remind us of "humans".

Find yourself in it.

"Hero Tortoise Rushes To Save Struggling Friend"


And because GOD gave me a love, and ease for words, He made me understand His WORD better, through "WIRED for WORDS".

Where many "secrets" are embedded in "words".

And mainly from "KEY" words.


The happiest people are those who know GOD.

Who are born again.

Who know His laws.

Who know His will.

Who know His ways.

Who know His love.

There is no illusion.

No delusion.

Only clarity.

PEACE through JESUS.

And yes, TONS of laughter.

Mostly at ourselves.

The RIGHT church

 Matthew 7:15

King James Version

15 Beware of false prophets, 

which come to you in sheep's clothing, 

but inwardly they are ravening wolves.


There is a hodgepodge of faiths in the White House.

And that, I find problematic.

Different doctrines, different gods.

I perceive potential problems in the future.

It is EXACTLY how Satan wants things to be.

Governments have been "infiltrated" in so many ways.

If you do not know the real JESUS, you're in trouble.

2 Corinthians 11:14

King James Version

14 And no marvel; 

for Satan himself is transformed 

into an angel of light.


As born again, I look to JESUS for EVERYTHING.

His ways, manner, truth, teachings, and life, I look to.

When I see slick ministers present themselves, I am instantly alerted.

When I see women pastors act all confident, I get alarmed.

How can they not know the Bible?


JESUS is PURE humility.

Philippians 2:6-9

King James Version

6 Who, being in the form of God, 

thought it not robbery to be equal with God:

7 But made himself of no reputation, 

and took upon him the form of a servant, 

and was made in the likeness of men:

8 And being found in fashion as a man, 

he humbled himself, 

and became obedient unto death, 

even the death of the cross.

9 Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, 

and given him a name 

which is above every name:


The Bible tells us how leaders, and ministers, ought to be, but they're not.

I know, then, that they're impostors.

And they will lead the sheep astray.


Only GOD institutes what's real.

And what's real for us is the born again faith.

And then again, there are so many variations of it.

CHRIST's enemy has corrupted everything.

But JESUS was specific:

John 3:3-8

King James Version

3 Jesus answered and said unto him, 

Verily, verily, I say unto thee, 

Except a man be born again, 

he cannot see the kingdom of God.

4 Nicodemus saith unto him, 

How can a man be born when he is old? 

can he enter the second time 

into his mother's womb, and be born?

5 Jesus answered, 

Verily, verily, I say unto thee, 

Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, 

he cannot enter into the kingdom of God.

6 That which is born of the flesh is flesh; 

and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit.

7 Marvel not that I said unto thee, 

Ye must be born again.

8 The wind bloweth where it listeth, 

and thou hearest the sound thereof, 

but canst not tell whence it cometh, 

and whither it goeth: 

so is every one 

that is born of the Spirit.


Today, the HOLY SPIRIT called my attention to two women:

Paula White, who was tasked to head the White House Faith Office.

Pam Bondi, who was appointed to head the task force against Christian bias.


That's all very well, except for these:

White is into "prosperity theology".

Bondi is associated with "Scientology".


We have more to say on White, but that will be for another post.

U.S. Attorney General Bondi is known to be tough on crime, and we commend her for that.

SPIRIT taught me to look into the personal beliefs of ANY leader, whether of the Trump team, or their critics.

Usually, it's the "personal life" that is very telling.

And I truly saw a hodgepodge of faiths that clash.

And lifestyles that are abominations unto GOD.


How can they "bring" people to GOD, when they are not "godly" themselves?

How can any nation be united, under ONE GOD, when its members have many gods?

That makes all of us charlatans.

But imagine if we are all "born of the Spirit".


Only SPIRIT can unite us all.

1 Corinthians 12:13

King James Version

13 For by one Spirit 

are we all baptized into one body, 

whether we be Jews or Gentiles, 

whether we be bond or free; 

and have been all made to drink 

into one Spirit.


Only SPIRIT can untie us all.

2 Corinthians 3:17

King James Version

17 Now the Lord is that Spirit: 

and where the Spirit of the Lord is, 

there is liberty.


This is something that needs to be said, too, in reference to ALL government administrations in the world.

If we have adulterous leaders, we are in trouble.

If we have fornicators, we are in trouble.

If we are not born again, we are in trouble.

If we do not know Scripture, we are in trouble.

If we are not taught by SPIRIT, we are in trouble.

If we promote the left, woke, and DEI ideology, we are in trouble.

If we do not believe JESUS is the Messiah, we are in trouble.


JESUS is the ONLY HIGH PRIEST.

Hebrews 4:14

King James Version

14 Seeing then that we have 

a great high priest, 

that is passed into the heavens, 

Jesus the Son of God, 

let us hold fast our profession.


EVERYONE will have to BOW before HIM:

Philippians 2:10-11

King James Version

10 That at the name of Jesus 

every knee should bow, 

of things in heaven, 

and things in earth, 

and things under the earth;

11 And that every tongue should confess 

that Jesus Christ is Lord, 

to the glory of God the Father.


At the moment, many remain naive, proud, ignorant, programmed, confused, stubborn, rebellious, and "deluded".

JESUS has an apt description for that.

Matthew 15:14

King James Version

14 Let them alone: 

they be blind leaders of the blind. 

And if the blind lead the blind, 

both shall fall into the ditch.


GOD chose Trump to head the White House.

It is an honor, for the world is in dire need of someone to make "reforms" -- bravely, and unapologetically.

Israel needed someone to see her plight.

The world had become woke, and wimpy.

It is obvious, to the "fair" eye, that President Trump's administration works hard for the American people.

And he's a true friend of Israel.

That's why Satan's evil eye is particularly focused on him.


Soon as he became president, he was ambushed by Satan.

He was castigated by an Episcopalian woman bishop.

Expecting a "blessing", he got a "dressing down".

Taking advantage of her power, she gloated in her new-found fame.

But maybe, not for long.

It seems the defunded USAID funds her church?


Shocked at the onslaught, Trump and his group, had no recourse but to sit it out in church.

But you can see the president's glower, and resolve -- "NEVER again!"

No matter your church, you don't do that to a newly-elected president.

The church is sacred.

GOD's WORD is meant to be shared.

It is not a platform for political attacks, or ideology.


We learned that president Trump is Presbyterian.

Of course, new presidents had to follow "tradition".

He HAD to go to THAT church.

Had he been born again, he'd have gone to a born again church.

Had he been born again, he'd have walked out when attacked.

You can, you know.

There is "no fellowship" with unbelievers.

They cannot be "equally yoked".

2 Corinthians 6:14

King James Version

14 Be ye not unequally yoked 

together with unbelievers: 

for what fellowship hath righteousness 

with unrighteousness? 

and what communion hath light 

with darkness?


Either someone in his administration was naive, or malicious, and the president got "ambushed".


We pray the HOLY SPIRIT leads him to be born again.

So he can go to the right BORN AGAIN church.

Whose "bishop" is male, simple, humble, but godly.

Whose church is a humble church, in no-town USA.

Who asks for nothing but true adoration for JESUS.

Who cannot be seen shaking hands with the president, for media coverage.

That's the church we hope the HOLY SPIRIT guides president Trump to.

He must open his heart to such a possibility.

And it shall be so.


What a TRANSFORMATION if Trump's administration is born again.

That's what we pray for, long for, and wait for.

For any government in the world.

It's the only way you can be taught by SPIRIT.

It's the only way you can understand Scripture.

It's the only way we can become "new creatures" in CHRIST.

2 Corinthians 5:17

King James Version

17 Therefore if any man be in Christ, 

he is a new creature: 

old things are passed away; 

behold, 

all things are become new.


ALL leaders must know this, too --

JESUS is HEAD 

of ALL GOVERNMENT.


He is All that was prophesied:

Isaiah 9:6

King James Version

6 For unto us a child is born, 

unto us a son is given: 

and the government shall be upon his shoulder: 

and his name shall be called Wonderful, 

Counsellor, 

The mighty God, 

The everlasting Father, 

The Prince of Peace.


Until such time we acknowledge the LORDSHIP and KINGSHIP of JESUS, we are but shadows of true faith.

Until such time everyone is born again, infused, and taught by GOD's SPIRIT, all faith is but a shadow of what could be.

It is the HOLY SPIRIT Who teaches us GOD's TRUTH.

JESUS said so:

John 14:26

King James Version

26 But the Comforter, 

which is the Holy Ghost, 

whom the Father will send in my name, 

he shall teach you all things, 

and bring all things to your remembrance, 

whatsoever I have said unto you.


John 15:26 

King James Version

26 But when the Comforter is come, 

whom I will send unto you from the Father, 

even the Spirit of truth, 

which proceedeth from the Father, 

he shall testify of me:


John 16:7-11

King James Version

7 Nevertheless I tell you the truth; 

It is expedient for you that I go away: 

for if I go not away, 

the Comforter will not come unto you; 

but if I depart, I will send him unto you.

8 And when he is come, 

he will reprove the world of sin, 

and of righteousness, 

and of judgment:

9 Of sin, because they believe not on me;

10 Of righteousness, because I go to my Father, 

and ye see me no more;

11 Of judgment, because the prince of this world 

is judged.


John 16:13

King James Version

13 Howbeit when he, 

the Spirit of truth, is come, 

he will guide you into all truth: 

for he shall not speak of himself; 

but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak: 

and he will shew you things to come.


John 16:14-15 

King James Version

14 He shall glorify me: 

for he shall receive of mine, 

and shall shew it unto you.

15 All things that the Father hath are mine: 

therefore said I, that he shall take of mine, 

and shall shew it unto you.


Lastly,

"The true born again has no need for grandiose structures.

We don't need the latest architectural styles.

Or to be entertained at church.

We only focus on JESUS -- the WORD of GOD."

1 Corinthians 2:2

King James Version

2 For I determined not to know 

any thing among you, 

save Jesus Christ, 

and him crucified.
