This past month has been a very interesting month. I had come across a man who thinks that bashing other Christians and their means of worship and service is what Christianity is all about. People who like to cut down other Christians and their way of preaching is truly an abomination to the Lord. I guess this is what happens when you have a theology that is so corrupted by bitterness and anger, than any Christian who does something different than you do is no good. The thing is, this believer is living a miserable life. Sad, lonely and broken. No family or true friends just a superficial religion. I feel sorry for Christians like that. I guess you really do come to understand why some people have nothing. I do not mean third world Christians.
I can only pray that God will help us all understand that He does have a purpose in our lives. That just because you are not a foot does not mean you don't need the foot or you are not a hand means you do not need the hand. Every person in the body of Christ should know that we are all important in the Body and that we all have a function. If more Christians paid attention on what others preach rather how they preach we would find ourselves obedient. Did I tell you the time when I was on the corner preaching and handing out tracts? This guy parked got out of the car and said, "Dude what are you doing, this is not how you are to preach." I of course asked him, whether he knew Christ and he said, yes he was a deacon at his church. I said to him then he needs to spend more energy winning people to Christ rather than cutting down Christians. People like that make God vomit. For a glimpse I knew why.

Don't Look Back
There is a story of Fernanado Cortez who wanted to capture the most valuable treasure in all the earth. He spent all he had and bought 11 ships to sail to capture this treasure. We he came to shore he trained his army and then told them to torch the boats. BURN THEM DOWN. He stated that the only way we are going to leave is with their boats victorious.
Christians are told the same when it comes to following God. If we choose Christ we need to burn our boats. Many people do not realize that Jesus said, PARAPHRASED "If you don't give up everything for me you are not worthy of me." Paraphrased "A person who puts his hand on the plow can not look back."
People need to burn the boats. Stop going back to a life of sin. Stop acting and living as an unbeliever. Start living for God.
Ask yourself, what boats are still on my shore? Why are they still there? Oh by the way, Cortez did come out victorious but it was only because there was no other way. So it will be with your walk in God if you burn the boats.

You call that Christianity???????
The other day I was listening to a debate between Deepak and a Pastor and in this debate was another guest who called herself a Christian. Without getting too much into detail, this girl dressed like a prostitute. It turns out that she has a ministry for prosititutes and believes that dressing like a prostitute is part of her ministry for Jesus. She believe that she needs to look beautiful and so forth to win people to Christ. Looking at the website I could not believe my ears or my eyes. How can you be called a Christian and look like that and act like that? This type of filth is cautioned to us in the Bible. Teaching Jesus without repentance is wrong. It is a false gospel and fake gospel.
This spirit of Jezebel is so prodominate in the Churches and we need to keep our eyes and ears open. Let me conclude that I personally don't care how much they may preach Jesus their ministry is demonic and only lead people astray to the real truth.
