I viewed a video the other day of Arthur Blessitt that was released apparently when he went home to be with Jesus. He finished his race in life in my opinion in such a beautiful way of sharing Jesus and the cross that he walked the earth with. Too bad so many preachers/ministers/apostles/prophets/churches have strayed away from the beautiful message of the Gospel and the free gift of salvation given to us if we choose to hear the message of Jesus and respond to the message with a heart change and accept Him into our hearts. To be the Lord of our lives and the true path to eternal salvation and be in heaven for all eternity by this beautiful gift He offers us free of charge, just love He shared when He chose to follow through. Being beaten to the point of unrecognition some say, mocked and spat upon, and then to die the cruel, cruel death of hanging on a cross. All done with the forward vision of seeing you, yes, seeing you before Him one day accepting Him into your heart to then be with Him for all eternity in heaven now and forever AMEN. True salvation seems to have something attached with it, your heart changes and so do your nasty type of ways of living also. I cannot explain it, but it does. The more you read the bible and get to know the true person of Jesus your heart seems to melt and fill with love, it really does.
You may see me at times coming against and bucking the church/church leaders etc. because for whatever reason Holy Spirit has put this unction in me to defend and stand up for justice and a defender/ as a voice speaking forth for underdogs. Why is that I have no idea, but He has me find things out and then share injustices in the hope that someone will see these injustices and hopefully changes will come forth.
I have attended imperfect churches throughout my life, including Catholic Churches too. On this day I chose to pull out the silver lining from one of the churches I attended in the 1990's. This is the very church where I learned to evangelize through taking the D James Kennedy course "Evangelism Explosion". This church did prayer/cross walks around surrounding cities. I remember being on 1 or 2 of them and we were instructed as we walked and prayed to not pray anything other than blessings for that city that day. I was there when we walked in Oberlin, OH and we were at 1 point at the cemetery where Charels Finney is buried. I do not recall any crazy type of grave sucking or any nonsense like that taking place that day. There was reverence and respect. I lived about maybe 20 minutes away from Oberlin at the time and one day I ventured out to the church where he actually preached at. When there I met a woman that worked or knew this church and she took me on a tour to the room behind the altar/pulpit. As you walk down the hallway you walk past a portrait of Charles Finney and to this day, I still recall the very stern/serious look on his face and his eyes in the portrait. This was a preacher that didn't mess around when it came to sin in one's life. Standing behind the pulpit she explained how it was built a certain way so as he could look into the eyes of the congregation and he called out sin, he truly did.
Why has the church gone away from preaching the true, unadulterated Gospel, the raw truth. There are 2 choices to make in your life, where will you live for all eternity, Heaven or hell. The choice is truly yours and only yours to make. Once made and you draw your last breath here on earth your eternal home forever and forever will be where you reside. Choose wisely and repent if you have swayed away from Gospel truth. Too many are caught up in the who's who church roster. Meaning photo opportunities to take place where you are rubbing elbow with this one or that one at grandeous gatherings. What about Jesus, hum maybe you forgot about the humbler days of when you fell in love with Jesus and all the other peripheral stuff didn't matter. Use wisdom and repent and if you choose to not repent then Holy Spirit expose the evidence and cleanse the church once and for all. While you all gather at your fine dining experiences, luxury vacations, etc. there are people out there in the world dying and not knowing about Jesus. Is your grandeous experience even worth trading that for sharing Jesus with one with whom they will be in heaven and not hell for all eternity. Uh oh, there I go speaking out loud again. If the shoe fits, wear it is how the expression goes.
