Called By Christ To Be ONE: HATING RELIGION

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!

HATING RELIGION

Hating Religion

Gary Wilkerson

October 23, 2017

Because I want all the peoples of the world to know the reality of Jesus, I spend a great deal of time traveling around the world in ministry. And then when I return home, I pray that every Christian would know Jesus too!

I hope you got the joke — but you need to know I’m only half joking. Our lives as followers of Christ are not about an identifiable religion, but about a knowable Person, Jesus. There is a huge difference.

The Bible tells us three things work against us in our walk with Christ:

the world, our flesh and the devil (see Ephesians 6:12).

I’ve wondered, “Why isn’t religion included in that list since it works against our relationship with Jesus, too?” Then I realized religion is in all three!

When I use the word “religion,” I really mean religiosity. This is the idea that we place religion — our theological beliefs and practices — at the center of our lives instead of the loving God.

It’s in Jesus that we live, breathe and have our being, not a system of beliefs or works.

When you look at it that way, religion becomes an expression of our flesh, meaning our sin nature.

Our flesh uses religion as a front to resist repenting and makes us feel good about ourselves. My Uncle Don Wilkerson calls this “front-sliding.” Backsliding is when people fall away from Jesus by turning to gross sins. Front-sliding is falling in the other direction, turning toward religion and away from Jesus.

Let’s face it, being religious may be more comfortable than being full of the love of Jesus, just because being led by his love can make us seem a little crazy to the world.

Please don’t misunderstand me when I say we’re to hate religion.

What I mean is we’re to hate those things that lead to spiritual death rather than to true life in Christ.

Hating religion doesn’t mean loving your flesh; it means loving Jesus more.
