In our hardness of heart we have refused to see; choosing to believe the lies of the enemy! Even today, those who claim to know God are discounting the "signs of the times", that saturate the news. And as the perversions and violence escalates daily, know this; God is in control, He is still on His throne, and His judgment is upon us! What we are witnessing is designed to bring us to repentance! It is our choice as to whether we "overcome" these tribulations or not! (Revelation 21:7-8)
"Martin Luther, the great reformer, wrote: "When our Lord and Master Jesus Christ says repent, he means that the whole life of believers on earth should be a constant and perpetual repentance.
"Repentance and sorrow -
i. e. true repentance - endure as long as a man is displeased with himself - that is, until he passes from this life into eternity. The desire of self-justification is the cause of all the distresses of the heart." From 'Azusa Street' by Frank Bartleman

We have missed it! We have been happy here in our complacency! Accepting the twisting of the scriptures by the enemy and not standing in and for The Truth! We have, in our compromise and tolerance allowed the thief to kill, steal and destroy that, with which we had been entrusted! The Elect have been deceived, and it is time to repent!
You can say, "Right on!", but until you personally fall on your face and seek God with your whole heart, all of your praying is for naught! This day is not for the other guy, down the street; this day is for you! Not the other church! Not the other denomination! This is the wake-up call for you!!!!! You! Everyone of you, must, turn! Repent while there is still time! We do not know if we have tomorrow! And a call to repentance IS NOT fear mongering! Join me!
Father God, I come to You this morning having nothing I can boast in, but I do boast in You - You alone! Whatever it takes, oh LORD, bring us to repentance! Show us what is required! Humble us! Change our hearts, LORD! Bring us to submission! Turn us back! Open our eyes; open our ears! Make Your desires our desires! Give us Your heart! I pray for tears for a lost and dying world! Show us the error of our ways; bring us back to You! In Your Son's precious name I pray!
Even so - MARANATHA
