WHY?
1Kings 9
8 And though this house is so high, yet shall every one that passeth by it be astonished, and shall hiss; and they shall say, Why hath the LORD done thus unto this land, and to this house?
9 and they shall answer, Because they forsook the LORD their God, who brought forth their fathers out of the land of Egypt, and laid hold on other gods, and worshipped them, and served them: therefore hath The LORD brought all this evil upon them.
Do we love America and love our country? Yes, we do.
But we are deeply grieved and saddened to see the wheels fall off of the country we have known and loved.
WHY we asked? Is it because of the devil, politicians, or foolish government policies?
Or is it because the "salt" of Christianity has lost its' savor and its' light is dark?
We live in a time when Christians are better known for what group or building they go to than by their living holy lives that reflect the scripture and produce the spiritual signs that should follow every believer.
Why do we now have "Obamacare"? -it is because God's people do not believe His Promises of healing and put their trust (faith) in physicians, prescription drugs, and medical insurance..
Why is the economy collapsing? -it is because of greed, self-indulgence, and a worldly minded church.
Why is the USA 13 trillion in debt? -It is because Gods people trusted in the banking system, borrowing, and credit cards to get what they wanted.
Why is the Lord dis-possesing?
-as He spoke to us: Your possessions have possessed you, they have been your distractions, therefore I will dis-possess and remove them. These will I purge as I purge My Bread from the leaven of your things.
Why is the government becoming the enemy of God's people?
-it is because much of the church has become politically involved, dependent upon, and supportive of politicians who lie to them.
Why do we have political leaders who lie and deceive? -it is because we have religious leaders who lie and deceive.
Why abortion in "Christian" America? -because Christianity has "aborted" the life of so many baby Christians who die spiritually before they bring forth fruit?
Where in scripture does anyone "ask Jesus into their heart" or raise their hand to accept Christ?
Jesus taught there are four kinds of soil, only 25% of the seed brought forth fruit and the other was aborted by the cares of life, persecution, and deceitfulness of riches.
Why do we have "open borders"? an open gateway for illegal immigrants, terrorists, and drug dealers?
-it is because the church accepted anything that came in. False revivals, false manifestations, false apostles, false gospels, false Christs, false leaders.
Why is freedom being eroded daily?
-it is because we used our liberty in Christ to serve the idols of entertainment, sports, and pleasure. God will judge the mis-use of the internet you can be assured.
Why are churches without power, spiritually dry, and formal?
-it is because we trusted in men rather than God's Word to prove for ourselves "what is written..".
Why are fearsome events coming upon the land? -it is because God's people have forgotten the fear of the Lord.
Why will famine and hunger come upon the land? -because there is already famine in God's house from His people not eating His Word and the shepherds who feed them vanity.
Why do we have a man in the White house without a birth certificate, false social-security numbers, and whose origins are hidden from the light of truth?
-it is because the majority of leaders in Christendom have never been truly "born again" according to scripture, who get authority from mans institutions, like Bible Colleges and denominations rather than God.
The fact we have a man most likely born in Kenya sitting in the high office is right off the page of
Dt. 2: 43 The *sojourner that is in the midst of thee shall mount up above thee higher and higher; and thou shalt come down lower and lower.
*stranger, alien, foreigner
Why do we have an oil disaster polluting the waters of the Gulf?
Is it because the church has polluted the waters of the Word with the darkened traditions of men. There are plenty of articles on this site comparing many of those darkened traditions of men to the scripture.
The Lord spoke to me in 2006:
But the pure word of My mouth has been polluted like the very waters of the land where you live. Is not this a parable before your very eyes?
Why will many Christians take the "mark" of the beast?
-because many have already received the mind of the beast in following the ways of man, government, and life's pleasures. "lovers of pleasure more than lovers of God"
Why will the typical Christian go into poverty?
-it is because we have neglected the poor among us that every Christian is called to show mercy to, rather than merely contribute to some ministry to do it for us.
-it is because when they had much, they gave little,
and mostly into the hands of those who deceived them.
Where is one man called a priest or pastor, given sole authority over an assembly?
Where in scripture the typical, programmed church "service" practiced in church buildings?
Where is tithing given to the church by any apostle in any epistle?
Where in scripture is a youth pastor, choir, a woman pastor, or salaried church staff?
Where in scripture is the Christmas and/or easter celebration-program-service?
Where in scripture did they say "God uses doctors"?
The churches are becoming unclean and dead right before our eyes as they no longer produce the life, holiness, or even the rudimentary signs that were to follow "them that believe".
2nd Corinthians 6:17 Wherefore Come ye out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord, And touch no unclean thing; And I will receive you.
The gospel should still produce the same evidence: "cast out devils, heal the sick, speak with new tongues..." -----Mark 16:9-20, and all through the book of Acts
They who come out from these vain, false, and unscriptural traditions are now looked upon as outcasts just as the early disciples were when they left the traditions of Judaism to follow Jesus.
It is not too late, Citizens of "new Jerusalem" hear:
2 Chronicles 7:14
"If MY people, (attention Christians)
who are called by my name, (Jesus the ONLY name given whereby we must be saved. Acts 4:12))
shall humble themselves and pray, (we humble ourselves in obedience to the Word.)
and SEEK my face (God revealed His face in Jesus, "the expressed image of the invisible God")
and turn from their wicked ways, (you would be surprised what God says is wicked)
THEN shall I forgive their sins (He forgives when we do the above, not when we justify ourselves)
and heal their land (Saved. "sozo", it means: to save, heal, deliver, preserve, and make whole our life)
Hebrews 3:15 while it is said, To-day if ye shall hear his voice, Harden not your hearts, as in the provocation.
Acts 3:19
Repent ye therefore, and turn again, that your sins may be blotted out, so that there may come seasons of refreshing from the presence of the Lord
May God grant us to repent, believe, to seek Him, to cut away the hardness of our hearts, and to be filled with His love and Spirit.
