Taking It All In!
Taking It All In!
For I reckon that the sufferings of
this present time are not worthy to be compared with the Glory which shall be
revealed in us.
While millions of you in the Christian world are moved by empty and
clever words of new age teachers, like TD Jakes and Steven Furtick... my heart
always skips a beat when I read the immortal words of the Real Apostles of Jesus
Christ.
You see, unlike your famous grifting
false teachers, the Apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ put paid with their own
blood. They did not spend their time behind decorated pulpits inside the
multi-million-dollar mega churches collecting tithes and offerings.
These men spent their lives defending the Faith and leading from
the front! The Apostles could not afford to surround themselves with armed
bodyguards, and armoured cars like today’s charlatans you have mistaken for the
men of God!
Taking it all in was the yearning
they felt from a million mile away through the mirage of their endless
sufferings and persecution where they were hunted down like criminals. Can the
same be said about your stinking rich false prophets and false apostles?
Today’s false preachers are nothing but slimy gold diggers who reap
where they did not sow…. They make claim of all these unwarranted credits that
God called and anointed them to lead the Church to who-knows-where!
These guys do not know Jesus because
if they did, they would fear God.
And at that time there was a great persecution against the Church
which was at Jerusalem; and they were all scattered abroad throughout the
regions of Judaea and Samaria except the Apostles.
After the stoning of young Stephen, Persecution
against Believers was intensified. All the Believers were scattered and fled
Jerusalem except the Apostles.
Even after the religious Leaders had called and commanded them not
to speak at all nor teach in the Name of Jesus. These guys stood for what they believed
and continued to Preach the Gospel despite all the intimidation.
Then Peter and the other Apostles answered
and said, We ought to obey God rather than men. Unlike today’s false preachers,
all men hated the Apostles because they preached the Gospel of Jesus Christ
without compromise.
Taking it all in was the yearning of the mirage they saw from a
million-mile distance. They withstood endless sufferings and persecutions. For they
looked for a City which hath Foundations whose Builder and Maker is God.
Taking it all in, it was the most
desired prize to suffer persecution and die for Christ amongst the Apostles: they
took pride in enduring all kinds of tribulations.
Yes, and all that will live godly in Christ Jesus shall suffer
persecution. Taking it all in, this was the excitement of unspeakable joy coming
from deep within and enveloped by the Comforter, the Holy Ghost!
The Preaching of the Gospel without
compromise; Caring for the Poor and Suffering Persecution for Christ; were the Primary
Pillars of the Apostles of Jesus Christ!
Taking it all in, the Apostles operated fully under the unction of
the Holy Ghost and followed the Footsteps of Christ through and through!
But rejoice inasmuch as ye are
partakers of Christ's sufferings; that when his glory shall be revealed, you
may be glad also with exceeding joy.
Taking it all in… Yet if any man suffer as a Christian let him not
be ashamed; but let him glorify God on this behalf. He that hath the Son hath
the witness. Sadly, today’s Christians cannot witness for Christ except to brag
about their superior church membership.
Taking it all in… But God forbid that
I should glory save in the Cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, by whom the world is
crucified unto me and I unto the world.
Taking it all in… How long wilt thou sleep O sluggard? When wilt
thou arise out of thy sleep? Taking it in all for Christ, is the highest
calling which today’s false prophets cannot attain!
God ended the ministries of the Prophets
and Apostles two thousand years ago! Hello, where have you been?
