I Have Not

“I have not sent these prophets, yet they ran: I have not spoken to them, yet they prophesied. But if they had stood in my counsel, and had caused my people to hear my words, then they should have turned them from their evil way, and from the evil of their doings.” Jeremiah‬ ‭23:21-22‬ ‭KJV‬‬

The message of repentance has been lost in the church! No longer do the leaders point people to a cross and tell them they must die to self! No longer do the pulpits call to a "sinner" because no one believes he sins! They are all "saved by grace" and when they "accepted an invitation" they took care of their final destination "once and for all!" 

Repentance is a turning away from sin; a change of direction and a change in lifestyle! And it is a daily choice! Many start the race well but the distractions of the world cause sin to creep back in! Because what constitutes "sin" is no longer preached the people accept sin as the norm! No one knows that fear, worry, unbelief, anger, bitterness, unforgiveness, judgement (to name a few) are sins! Because "everyone" does it, it must be okay! Because of acceptance there is no need for repentance! "God made me that way" is the attitude, so I'm good!

Today, what a sinner hid behind closed doors 50 years ago, and did under the cover of darkness, is proudly paraded at mid-day! The sins not seen, but hidden in the heart, are far worse! The former not caring who sees, the latter denying God's power to see!

“Am I a God at hand, saith the Lord, and not a God afar off? Can any hide himself in secret places that I shall not see him? saith the Lord. Do not I fill heaven and earth? saith the Lord.”

‭‭Jeremiah‬ ‭23:23-24‬ ‭KJV‬‬

The judgement of The Lord is at hand and we have whole denominations deceived; believing they will be spared His fury, while true believers die everyday, in other parts of the world, because they follow The Lord Jesus Christ! Beheadings and crucifixions are no longer newsworthy, they are so frequent! And the church here, with her head buried in the sand waits to be raptured! Such audacity! ‬‬

“And when he had opened the fifth seal, I saw under the altar the souls of them that were slain for the word of God, and for the testimony which they held:” ‭‭Revelation‬ ‭6:9‬ ‭KJV‬‬

“The anger of the Lord shall not return, until he have executed, and till he have performed the thoughts of his heart: in the latter days ye shall consider it perfectly.” Jeremiah‬ ‭23:20‬ ‭KJV‬‬

We are seeing (and will continue to see) the anger of The LORD! 

Repent! 

Business as usual is a thing of the past, for our days are numbered! Turn from your wicked ways while there is still time! 

Even so - MARANATHA!
