This year has been one crisis after another of God exposing us with the intent of humbling us.
The political solutions (or lack thereof) that so many rely on to change the course of our country can do nothing to transform hearts. Oh they may reform or deform society depending on the policy being promoted, but every Bible believing Christian knows it is only the Gospel of Jesus Christ that can fill the hole in the soul and heal a land out of control.
And the sad irony is that the very remedy needed is the same remedy that is being resisted. Nay, not just resisted but rebelled against and pushed out of the public square. We are a nation divided because the Church is silent. Silent on matters that warrant a response.
Like when a party platform for a President reflects the reprobate minds and godlessness of Romans 1, and yet “Christians” are more focused on hating President ____________; fill in the blank on the page, because to even say his name is to invoke irrational rage.
Like when Antifa and Black Lives Matter (the Organization) are selling lies and inciting riots, yet “Christians and churches” are supporting such violence. Silence is violence, right? Unless that silence is towards abortion and those without a voice, because then it’s not “silence or violence” but it’s called “a woman’s choice.”
Why are so many bowing to such unbiblical narratives? I’ll tell you--because it’s easier to fit in with the culture than it is to get cancelled by vultures.
Like when a virus with 99% survivability for most ages is treated like the bubonic plague; which by the way would kill everyone who contracted it, the majority within the day. And yet Churches shut down in the name of “loving thy neighbor,” as if that act of general “kindness” would introduce anyone to the Savior. However, you can’t get to loving your neighbor without first loving God. And it’s love for Him first and most that would have any Spirit filled pastor open his church. Facts.
Like when “separation of church and state” is thrown in a pastor’s face, and all because “Christians” have believed the lie that faith should be isolated from the public space. But to say “politics do not belong in the pulpit” is to say “God doesn’t belong in government.” Wrong. Flat out wrong, and to believe otherwise is to dance to the tune of the devil’s song. His goal is to silence and sideline the Church, to get believers to stay in their bubble and neglect being the salt of the earth.
We are getting what we deserve because judgment starts in the house of the Lord and works its way out to the world. Yes, this has been a year of division, but more so a year of separation. Dark from light. Truth from lies. True believers from self-deceivers. It’s never been clearer.
I don’t apologize for my candor and I don’t fear man’s attempt to slander or censor. I know the Word of God and I love the God of the Word. He is my Judge and Jury. He is my Savior and Defender.
And to those of you who call yourselves “Christians” and believe what the Marxist mainstream media is feeding ya, I have to be honest with you because biblical love is being willing to tell you the truth— and the truth is this, either you don’t have the Holy Spirit or the Holy Spirit doesn’t have you. And with that, cue the hateful comments that some of you are ready to spew.
“God have mercy on us as we have made a mockery out of Your favor, and forgive us for being silent in areas where biblical truth matters.”
