When You're Too Lukewarm To Be Oppressed

The world has become anesthetized to the Gospel truth. An injection of lies here - an injection of compromises there - and a mask of subtle excuses to block out all sense of guilt - applied slowly - with charm and gentle persuasion of the weak and the ignorant - produces Christian zombies.
 

The world, including America, no longer appreciates - indeed it criticizes, scorns and condemns - those who are anointed with the preaching gifts of Enoch (Jude 14-16), Elijah, John the Baptist, the Apostle Paul, James, and the late Billy Sunday. The listening ears of today prefer to have their ears tickled with "feel good" sermons, slaps on the back and watered down Word. Preachers have complied and many of them have lost their candlestick (Rev. 2:5).
 

They refused to lead their flock back to their first love, they refused to build a fire in the bellies of the fragile souls they were accountable for, and they failed to rally the saints around the banner of the cross, opting instead to try gimmicks to bring the people in, turning the house of God into a house of merchandise, and giving false hopes and assurances in a den of theiving spiritual corruption. People today, especially young people, are looking for truths, and when you rob a soul of the truth, you rob Christ of a soul He loves, and you rob that soul of life everlasting. This is why Jesus holds us accountable to tell our brothers and sisters when they are on dangerous ground, otherwise, if they die and are lost, their blood is on our hands because we did not warn them and give them opportunity to repent.
 

Before you accuse me of being harsh, judgmental and critical of today's preachers and the Church, let me assure you I honestly don't care what you think - I am not moved by your opinion of me. I am not swayed by your cheers or your mocking rejection of me. I am moved by the Word of God and the Spirit of God - and Him only. I do not make my decisions based on what the world thinks. My opinions are not crafted from the reports in the Wall Street Journal, or the speeches dared to be preached by Tony Blair or Barack Obama or Nicholas Sarkozy. I could care less what the UN is dragging through the mud, God can still take that which is meant for evil and turn it into good.
 

Don't forget, God made the mud when He made Adam. Man may have perverted it's goodly treasures but as long as there is a human race on this earth, we are living testimonies of God's infinite wisdom and awesome powers.
 

On the other hand, if you are so laid back you don't feel oppressed or vexed by the evil that permeates our culture today, you are lukewarm - and you are digging your own grave among the living dead...
 

If you are wishy washy indifferent, a compromiser of the truths that made this nation great, you are lukewarm in your convictions, deadened to the righteous warnings of a few good men. You may profess to be a Christian, but in this case, you are a professer, not a possesser for the Holy Ghost will not live in a vessel that rejects and perverts the Holy and absolute Word of God. The day you decided to compromise and support the ideals  of the world, the Holy Spirit vacated your own spirit. He left! And you now live with your lies, your compromises and your lukewarmness in a decadent world of lies, conspiracies and the vilest of corruptions.
 

To the powers that created heaven and earth, creating even you in your mother's womb, the Judas in you has been exposed. You are, and may have always been, a backyard traitor turned front-yard traitor to the Savior that has no choice but to erase your name from the Lamb's Book of Life and to spew you out of His mouth.
 

If you have cast your lot with the gay activists, let me warn you, as God has warned you in His Word:
 

Leviticus 18:22 (KJV): "Thou shalt not lie with mankind, as with womankind: it is abomination."
Romans 1:22-27: "Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools, And changed the glory of the uncorruptible God into an image made like to corruptible man, and to birds, and fourfooted beasts, and creeping things. Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonour their own bodies between themselves: Who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature more than the Creator, who is blessed for ever. Amen. For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature: And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompence of their error which was meet."
 

Jesus also had a word to say about this in Matthew 19: 4-6 - "And He answered and said unto them, Have you not read, that He which made them at the beginning made them male and female, and said, for this cause shall a man leave father and mother, and shall cleave to his wife: and they twain shall be one flesh. Wherefore they are no more twain but one flesh. What therefore God has joined together, let not man put asunder."
 

If you support the slaughter of innocent babies, the right to the publication and sale of pornography, same sex marriage, the removal of God out of the public sector, the removal of the name of Jesus from all prayer and the removal of prayer of any form from our troops, you fight against God. You may think church and state should be separate but I am here to tell you they shared the same playground just fine - without any problems at all - before the atheist lobbyists and corrupt politicians decided to take over the playground and kick God out. Shame on you for allowing them to even try...
 

I am well aware this began a generation ago - in the late 50s and early 60s - but it has worsened and intensified with each decade and lately, with each week - Barack Obama is on fast track and we have to stop the madness or succumb to the prophetic promises of terror and a great fall, extended to all generations of all nations that forget God.

Judgment is coming to America. You can count on it. And when it does, if you are one of those compromising pew warmers that drove us to this pit, you will never again hear laughter or witness the joy of children, know the blossoming of innocent love, the value of life or the simplicity of truth. You died spiritually when you said, "Yes" to the world and "No" to God. Two cannot walk together except they be in agreement. When you disagree with God, you are doomed to walk without Him.

Last week, while in prayer, the Lord impressed on me that "it will happen when you  set your flowers out" which I always do the first week in June. I am also impressed by the Spirit to expect chaos mid-April, which is right here. It is possible I misread these warnings, particlarly the timing and if so, I will apologize for declaring them too quickly.

I pray you will all get into the closet, repent and be purged of all ungodliness, shake the dust of the world off your feet and your flesh. Be washed in the blood of the Lamb and cleansed by the undiluted and infallible Word of God. Speak truth to all men and rebuke all temptations to speak otherwise. Guard your soul well lest any man come to  steal your crown...
