REPUBLICAN DEBATE and The Answer

The second Republican debate spoke up about some important issues - Aimed at bringing down Donald Trump, it would have done to aim at bringing down God's favor again to America, which would definitely begin with using some of their clever lines on a morally failing nation, with a failed Democratic Party nipping at its heels.  Instead of conceiving clever lines for the pundits to repeat a thousand times, used on each other, why not address the real problems created by a nations that has lost its way?

And church, where are we?  Where are the loud pulpits telling people the truth. We are not innocent, our world is in a mess and we have the answer, at least to man's internal needs?

Naturally speaking:   all the good ideas proposed last night are of no value if we don't get jobs, return industry, negotiate wisely on the international scene.

Spiritually speaking: all the good ideas will have limited value if we don't get busy in the '"WAR ROOM!"  If you want to be inspired by the world's answer, see the movie "War Room," and then get into your own Prayer Closet, forgive every person you know, and every situation you dislike, start chasing after God, with your Bible in your hand - and then get up and gather every week with other believers in church!

Islam vrs. revival

Pastors are crying out across this nation and asking God for revival - I hear them om the radio, I see them on television. "O God we need revival in the land." Let me ask this qustion, "How can God pour out His mighty blwessings on our land when the church itself is not moving in the power of the Holy Spirit?" O yes, the church is moving, Where? I have no idea! They are building bigger buildings and adding more programs, and doing whatever it takes, yes, whatever, to have an audience that will listen to them. They will bring the false god of Islam in the midst of their congregations in the hopes that they will be saved. Good motive but not God designed!!! The Scripture says, "What concord does Christ have with Belial?" 2 Cor. 6:15 In plain English, "Where is the unity between Jesus the Anointed One, and Islam. Islam (the Philistines are an enemny of the one true living God). You cry out for revival - what a joke "Where is your Judeo-Christian standard? Maybe you can find it in the offering basket so thAT YOU CAN ENJOY THE SMOOTH RIDE OF YOUR NEW CAR. Wake up congregants!!!!! Why do you continue to listen to a pastor who has no standard, a pastor who will not expose the enemy of the cross? Why don't you speak up and speak with a loud voice??? The Body of Christ cannot afford the luxury of being governed by the flesh - when we do, we do things in the wrong way, which directly opposes the Word of God. The blood-bought church of Jesus Christ is not a place to put on a show - it should be a place where we gather to worship the Lord in Spirit and in truth. "All things must be done according to the pattern." (Heb. 8:5) God's pattern works - we don't need any substitute. Expediency, compromise, practicality????? Leave it behind, drop it as if they are all hot coals of fire and return to faithfulness based on holy Scripture. The lax composure of the church today is apalling. God's way, God's word has always worked!!! Be a faithful servant, be bold in the Lord, walk, live, and be led by the Spirit of God and then stand back and see the salvation of the Lord. Then, Revival will come!!! Pastor Paul Johnian

Crislam vrs. God's way

Listen and listen good!! Yes, especially pastors who are allowing Muslims to speak to their congregations in the pulpit whuich is designated to bring only the holy word of the Living God!!!! Let us not be ignorant - God's will is revealed in Scripture and it is for us to seek out truth based only and entirely on His word. For King David to have to have placed the holy Ark of The Covenant on a "new cart" was a humnan design, thought, method. Because David did not consult God, (instead he went to his officers), he proceeded to do an admirable act the wrong way! How many of us today, because of stress, pressure, anxiety, zeal, human situations that may alter our present way of life - go about things the wrong way instead of the "God way". Listen, when we do things any other way than the way the Lord has prescribed in holy Scripture, we are heading for tragic disaster. Shame, shame, shame on pastors who are embracing Islam and having Muslim Imams in their pulpits - so that they can "help build bridges" to a sinister, ungodly, evil, anti-Christ religion. Wake up and repent before your God and your congregation and forget about "Chrislam". It is disgraceful! It is blasphemy! And then you want the blessing of God on you and your congregation? It is all a farce. Repent! And then allow the mighty hand of God to show Himself as He is, to the people who are "called by His name." Yes, have fervor, be zealous but do it God's way!!!!! Pastor Paul Johnian

Quantity or Quality vrs. human reasoning or God's will

King David was a zealous man - he had a desire to please the Lord. He had a godly concern for the Holy Ark of God, which had been for so long neglected, to be established in the place where God had chosen it to be. Yes, he wanted it to be secure within the borders of Israel so that the people of God could come and worship Him in spirit and in truth. God desire! God's will! God and good motive! So what did he proceed to do? He did what so many of us do today. He looked at the natural situation first instead of seeking the Lord - yes, the Lord God Almighty Who gave David so many victories after he had sought Him with his whole heart. He not only looked at things naturaly but instead of seeking divine guidance as to what what God had to say about all of this - concerning the Ark, "he cosulted with all of his army officers." I Chron. 13:1 The result - disaster!!!! The ark was to be placed on a nwe cart and to be led by oxen. Do you realize - this is exactly what the heathen did. Oh, do not misunderstand for a moment - David had the best of intentions, he had all the musicians in order to worship the Lord as the ark would be coming into Jerusalem - something glorious to look forward to - but there was one thing wrong - David executed it in the wrong way. Every plan, every action, every decision no matter how right and zealous you may be, MUST be regulated by the word of God. Today, above all days, we must seek His word and His will above anything else that we may desire. It is imperative!!! We do not want to bring the displeasure of the Lord in our midst. Oh yes, David was called by God, David was anointed; David had a heart to serve God but he went about this particular incident the wrong way. What about the church today? There are those that say we need to preach to Muslims today, we need to reach out to them in any way we can. No, no, no a thousand times no. Do you realize there are "big-time" pastors that are allowing Muslim men of the false god Allah to come into churches in America and speak to congregations from the pulpits. DISASTER!!!! This is not God's way according to Scripture. They are bringing the unholy, the enemy of Jehovah God of Israel into the sacred place of worship. And we expect good things to come from this erroneous human act. No way! It is not of God. I will continue this next time but for now we must be listening for God to say to us when we are about to act on something, "Thus saith the Lord."

Where are the Christian pastors in America???

In the 1940s and 1950s, along with my father, mother and 5 siblings, we all went to church every Sunday. To be completely honest with you, I do not ever remember being told to study the Bible. I was never told how the word of God should lead our lives and that God's word is the standard for all life. Now, several decades later, my lovely granddaughter, Zoe, who is just 7 years old, not only knows by memory several Bible verses, but she also knows the importance of serving God and living according to the word of God. Wake up Christians!!! Really wake up Christian pastors. I am so disappointed in the Christian leasdership in this country. In so many of our churches, anything goes - the way peolpe dress, the so-called spiritual songs they sing with the rhythms of this world. How pastors are doing their utmost to bring false teachers from the Islam religion, into the holy sanctuarys of God. What in the world have we come to??? So called men of God in pulpits using profane language - and the reason is - we must reach another generation. When did Jesus ever "stoop to conquer." I read in my Bible that the word of God is indeed sufficient to change the heart of a person. Oh yes, America is falling apart - especially our weak government - both Republican and Democrat alike. But there is somethying far greater falling apart and that is the Christian pastors in America. They have become liberal. They have become politically correct. They have become weak and is it all because they want to please "itching ears?" Where are the men like Rev. Billy Grahm that preached a message so simple any person could understand the true way to the living God - and he always spoke in decent English. Wake up Christian pastors and realize the words of Jesus "...do not be deceived" This was the first sign Jesus spoke of concerning the end of human government. The Christian church in America is under a spirt of deception. I wonder if the administration would hold their pastors to task and simply tell them with Christian conviction, "Enough of your foul language, enough of a social Gospel. We want to hear the word of God taught under the anointing of the Holy Spirit. I wonder if there is any Christian conviction left in this country. Yes there is - I am one and so is my family!!!

JAY LENO AND JESUS? HOLLYWOOD AND JONI ERICKSON TADA? WHO'SE KIDDING WHO?

Since JAY Leno appeared on Johnny Carson's Late Night Show in the early 90's, I liked him. He seemed to be a decent guy with a great sense of humor - more humor than any of his competitors. However, we're not into tv entertainment, so we didn't watch his popularity rise until the last week. Paul said "I want to see what he has to say." So we watched until Thursday night. THURSDAY NIGHT: Leno was holding up gadgets for a laugh - then he picked up a THONG with a decal - the camera took a close-up, and speaking as though he were referring to just another gadget,Jay LENO read the words: WHAT WOULD JESUS DO? America laughed, no report appeared on television the next day. Silence! Why didn't Jay Leno hold up a thong with a picture of Mohammed and say, "I wonder what the Prophet would do?" Because he knew the city of LA would go up in flames, and he would have to live underground. JAY mocked Jesus before the entire world, because he knew Christians would sit mute and do nothing, say nothing, and change nothing! Jay Leno would be shocked if he really understood that God has been watching his program every night! Watching him slide into the vanity of temporary fame and glitz that is so attractive to the foolish. What did Jay Leno do for 20 years in Hollywood? Made a lot of money. Impressed a lot of people. Probably had a lot of fun and led a lot of people into the world of temporary illusions. But at what price? His eternal soul. And for the sake of his soul, I pray he will bend his knee and beg God to forgive his utter ignorance, in thinking he can mock God with no retribution. I am angry that he added to the filth of God-mockery in the media, but I more angry at a church that continues to sit by and say nothing! HOLLYWOOD Since I was a child I loved movies - the wholesome movies the Jews made when they built Hollywood. But if anyone questions what Hollywood has become, take a look at Joni Erickson Tada, the quadraplegic who wrote a beautiful crossover song that Hollywood nominated, until they realized a Christian had written the song and their "bleeding heart" disqualified it! What phonies! What fools the church is to support and drool over the filth they put out. I am angry at Hollywood, but I am more angry at the church. Once great in number and influence in America and the world, look at us now! Yes, we talk big inside the walls where the country has driven us! Herded like pigs, by spiritual neophytes. Some even say the world "Christian" but where is the person who will speak for God - what God has said in His Word, without excuse! Surely, we are the Laodicean Church that nauseates God so much he said He will vomit them out of His mouth. I don't know about you, but I will take the security of God's mouth any day over the filty mouth of the world. Mona Johnian
