OH MY!
Are we living in Laodocia? Are we living in the collapsing era prophesied by Isaiah, when every man worships his own (GOD) his way, under a tree? Are we living in a world-wide collapse? Are we living in "Noah's Time"? Are we living in that prophesied time, when all things wicked will be declared "Good"? Are we nearing that Biblically prophesied period, when 07 women will lock arms with one man, saying, "Let us bare your name, while we support ourselves"? As the fifth to enter Ordained Ministry in 05 generations of my family; now in my 40th year of ministry, Where are the truly anointed and Godly Called Pastors - Teachers - Evangelists - Apostles & Prophets in our Land. Paul,that crusty old Roman Provential Senator Apostle, Paul of Tarsus Prophesied; "IN THE LAST DAYS, MEN NO LONGER WILLING TO HEAR SOUND DOCTRINE, WILL HEEP UP UPON THEMSELVES FALSE TEACHERS, WILLING TO TICKLE THEIR ITCHING EARS! HIRELINGS!" Again, he wrote; "IN THE LAST DAYS, MANY WILL MAKE MERCHANDICE OF THE GOSPEL!" We are there folks! Better strap on the spiritual seat belt! Get ready! The ride's gonna be gettin' rough before long! What's been correct for thousands of years is now considered wrong. And, the United Kingdom only has 02% of its population even active at all in any Christian Church. Wonder why? First, it became popular for "Pastors" to stop preaching sound doctrine, replacing that with "Plays" "dramas" & "skits". Then it became popular for "Pastors" to teach only feely - good sermonettes and to program services to arouse the same draw and emotions as Rock Concerts, while calling it "Church Worship of GOD?" Then came the "Preacher's" charging fees for ministry activities, once performed as an expected norm of Pastoral Ministry. Then came the "Free Pastor's", willing to put on "Big Draw Events", purposely targeting and steeling of Parishioners from other smaller surrounding congregations, so they can build their mega churches, while causing the closing of many smaller churches, where the Pastor's actually knew their parishioners by name, and would make house calls, hospital and nursing home calls for families in emergencies 24/7, as Old Fashioned Biblical Pastor's did. (And) Anyone really wonders why the majority of Christian Denomination's and Associations in the USA are seeing more churches closed, seeing shrinking congregations, shirking numbers of Salvations - Conversions - & Baptism's, every year!? I WONDER WHY!?!? Oh Yeh! Could it be because the generation of "Pastor's" are more like "Marketing Agents" "Advertising Guru's" "Rock Concert Coordinator's" rather than serving in the "Biblical Five Fold Ministry" as described by Saint Paul of Tarsus. Could it be because this generation of "Pastors", think that by sitting on their back sides in a church office 5 days a week, while they read, play the Internet, watch TV, charge fees for enlicensed "Counseling", and while they down load sermonettes from Internet Sites, rather than spending time on their faces before GOD in prayer, and then, spending time out where people really are at, as Jesus literally did? YEP! That's it!!!! They say, "Hire me" I'll add numbers to your church, won't ruffle any feathers, I'll preach non confrontational sermons, and push for a new building project, IF YOU HIRE ME!!!" An old saying is very apropos for today's church in the USA; "Some {a very few} were Called. Some were sent. Others bought a microphone and went!!!" Sadly, those believing and doing "ministry" the modern Laodocian Way, are now sitting in the seats of Denominational Authority, appointing their carbon copies to Parish Pastorates. So, sadly, it will be more and more of the same, until the End Day comes! And how dare he, Jesus said; "When I return to the Earth, will I find any true faith????" Could he have been prophesying about 'our day'? Just some thoughful questions from a Preacher that's been "Hammering Away" for 40 years..........

Get out your bibles and show me one place where Christ preached on sex. There's a time and a place for everything under the sun and I guess some people believe that God should have made a companion to the bible all about this personal matter. Isn't anything sacred and private any longer? We are living in perilous times. Where are the Watchmen? I believe that many have placed themselves in positions that God never called them to. God have mercy on us and send us men and woman who have a knowledge of the word and an anointing for deliverance.

The Church Sex Fad

QUOTE: "Apparently the shortest route to relevance in church ministry right now is for the pastor to talk about sex in garishly explicit terms during the Sunday morning service. If he can shock parishioners with crude words and sophomoric humor, so much the better. The defenders of this trend solemnly inform us that without such a strategy it is well-nigh impossible to connect with today's ‘culture.' Sermons about sex have suddenly become a bigger fad in the evangelical world than the prayer of Jabez ever was. Everywhere, it seems, churches are featuring special series on the subject. ... I would be the last to suggest that preachers should totally avoid the topic of sex. ... But the language Scripture employs when dealing with the physical relationship between husband and wife is always careful —often plain, sometimes poetic, usually delicate, frequently muted by euphemisms, and never fully explicit. There is no hint of sophomoric lewdness in the Bible. ... Above all, Scripture never stoops to the lurid level of contemporary sex education. ... I keep encountering young pastors who are now [choosing the latter], and I'm rather surprised that the trend has been so well received in the church with practically no significant critics raising any serious objections." —renowned pastor and Bible teacher John MacArthur, who responded to the recent "sex trend" in churches by writing a series of articles titled "The Rape of Solomon's Song" [shepherdsfellowship.org, 4/14/09]

Isn't it ironic that these school administrators are so concerned about their students, while libraries see no need (or authority) to filter pornography? Is it true that in some locales these same students would have a legal right to an abortion without notifying their parents? Protect those kids at all costs from a Christian view of sexuality (as long as they can still get condoms for free).

Maybe the Church is the only place kids don't hear or learn about sex these days ...
