I have been struggling with telling the truth about the organized business called the Church.  Which is ironic as many of them have dropped the word Church from their names determining that it limits the breadth and depth of the marketing reach.  “People don’t like to come to Church,” they say, “People want to come to a community”.  I love you my Brothers and Sisters, but as Jude, Jesus’ step Brother clearly stated we have been infiltrated by men and women who have nothing to do with God, but with mammon.

For there are certain men crept in unawares, who were before old ordained to this condemnation, ungodly men, turning the grace of our God into lasciviousness, and denying the only Lord God, and our Lord Jesus Christ.  Jude 1:4

The enemies of God are deceivers, deniers, dividers and infiltrators.  They join those righteous efforts sporting good intent but bring in the corrupting poison of lust for the world.  We were never meant to be non-profit, we were told to render unto Cesar that which is his.  Pay the taxes, do the world and wait on God to provide for our needs, but that wasn’t good enough we had to get special exception from the government of man.  What have we to do with the world, we are “the called out ones”, called out from what, the world of course?

But, beloved, remember ye the words which were spoken before of the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ; How that they told you there should be mockers in the last time, who should walk after their own ungodly lusts.  These be they who separate themselves, sensual, having not the Spirit.  But ye, beloved, building up yourselves on your most holy faith praying in the Holy Ghost, Keep your selves in the love of God, looking for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ unto eternal life.

The enemy has always determined that it is much more effective to join us to break us up than it is to persecute the Church, which continues to make it grow.  So, the enemy has come up with the perfect plan to make the Churches just like the world and have them comfort and complacent waiting for the injured to come in the front door seeking a salvation they know nothing about.

So, we can ignore the fact that we were told that the enemy would come in and nest in the mustard tree finding it comfortable or we can be vigilant, ware, prepared and spirit filled as the Lord told us to be.  You decide.  I pray my greatest prayers of hope, encouragement and protection for my Catholic Brothers and Sisters as in this time, this crucial time they are finding out the truth about their organization.  Many have written me and lost hope and faith in their denomination.  It is understandable as they have a long history of wars, sexual immorality, nefarious government relationships, greed, injustice and even now are being associated with the acts of the fallen.  This is not what the Lord intended.  Father shine your glorious light upon their wicked deeds that they might be seen in the public’s eye and have the opportunity to repent and turn their faces back to you before it is too late.

To those believers who have become jaded, don’t blame God for what men do.  Love Him with all that you are as He loves you.  He will deliver you.  Make some choices that are guided by the Holy Spirit in preparation for the King’s return.  Don’t waste your time, your precious time of harvest associating with false believers.  Share the Word of God and if they choose to remain carnal then stay away from them, remaining unspotted by this world.  The Lord will sort this all out, keep the faith, keep your eyes skyward awaiting His glorious return.  My comfort is a small sacrifice for the glory that awaits us in the Kingdom.  I love you so much and pray for you the strength of Almighty God, a filling of His Holy Spirit of Power and Truth through the Path of Jesus Christ our King.
