Heaven Is Our Destination Where We Will Be ONE With The Lord Forever

Today, we are in The Season Of The Last Generation. The Birth Pains that Christ Jesus spoke about are currently under way, including natural and unnatural disasters. They will be ever increasing. Because of the increase of wickedness, the love of most will grow cold. Social, economic and political turmoil will be ever increasing, causing people's hearts to be weighed down with dissipation, drunkenness and the anxieties of life. An apostasy within the Church of God is currently under way. This will all reach a climax with Satan revealing his Antichrist and requiring that everyone worship him; That every one receive his "mark" in order to buy or sell; The new currency of the New World Order, the New Tower of Babel.

Today, it is critical that those who have a heart for God are aware of what God is doing and speaking today. God is opening up His Word like never before in preparation for The Time Of The END. I exhort you to open up your heart and your eyes to see what He is doing and your ears to hear what God is speaking at this time. My prayer is that we will be able to stand before the Son of Man at His appearing, without fault and with great joy. I encourage you to read David Wilkerson's book, America's Last Call at davidwilkersontoday.blogspot.com. Also, Google, Tommy Hicks Prophecy, 1961 for a view of the End Times.

Tom's books include: Called By Christ To Be ONE, The Time Of The END, The Season Of The Last Generation, Worship God In Spirit And In Truth, Daniel And The Time Of The END, and Overcoming The Evil One. They are available at amazon.com. They can also be read without cost by clicking on link: Toms Books.

To receive Christ Jesus as a child by faith is the highest human achievement.

Today, the Bride Of Christ is rising up in every nation in the world! Giving Glory to Her Savior and King, Christ Jesus!

Today, the world is Raging against God, Rushing toward Oblivion! Save yourself from this Corrupt Generation!

Today, America is being ground to powder because of it's SIN against God!

Lukewarmness

Lukewarmness - The Great Commission, Part 27

Week 27, 2013, Rick Joyner

As covered previously, many consider the seven churches of Revelation to be a prophetic outline of church history, and I share that view. Looking back, this is an amazingly accurate outline of church history. It would mean that the last church the Lord addressed, the church at Laodicea, would represent the church at the end of the age. This was the church that the Lord gave His greatest promises to: they would be given their food by Him, and they would sit with Him on His throne. This is in contrast to the great company that stands before the throne (see Revelation 7). This speaks of the best of all spiritual food and unprecedented authority.

We tend to think of the church at Laodicea as the one that was so prosperous they had become lukewarm, making the Lord sick to the point that He would vomit them out of His mouth. This is true of the church today, and it is the great danger of our time for Christians. To be lukewarm is the worst condition that a Christian could ever fall into because it reveals ultimate contempt for the Lord. Indifference is the greatest affront to any relationship. To know Almighty God and be lukewarm toward Him is the greatest insult. This seems to reflect the condition of many, if not most, Christians in this time.

How can anyone who knows God be lukewarm? Jesus said,“because lawlessness is increased, most people’s love will grow cold” (Matthew 24:12). He did not say “many” here, but “most.” This is obviously addressed to Christians because non-Christians do not have a love for Him to lose. Therefore, we can conclude that in these times, most Christians will have their love for Christ grow cold. To go from being hot to cold you have to pass through the lukewarm stage. This seems to be where most Christians are now.

Lawlessness begins with impurity, which grows into fornication and adultery (see Romans 6). All who go down this trail to illegal sensuality, lust, and the sins that are begotten by them, will have their love for God grow cold. They tend to become even more religious as an attempt to compensate for their sin. However, that too is a basic departure from the righteousness that we have only through the cross of Jesus. Those who seek their own justification through works will also move further away from truly loving God.

A study done by Orthodox Jews revealed that pornography is more addictive than cocaine. This community of Jews had a divorce rate of only 6% when the rest of the world was experiencing nearly 50%. Then, when the Orthodox community saw their rate of divorce double, they sought answers to why this was happening and conducted this study. They saw pornography as the key inroad of sin that destroyed marriages.

If we let the impurity of pornography into our lives, we are trading the love of Christ for it. Our love for Him will grow cold, and further lawlessness will grip our hearts. We are choosing between lust and life. The wages of sin is death, and eternal life is only found in Christ. Are we going to serve sin or serve Him? “Today if you hear His voice, do not harden your hearts” (see Hebrews 4:7).

My Comment:

Christ Jesus gave His life for His Church. Now those who belong to Him will give their lives for Him. It is all or nothing with God. Those who give up everything in this world, will gain everything that the Kingdom of God has to offer, which is everything there is; Righteousness, Love, Peace and Joy in the Holy Spirit, FOREVER!
