Events in the world and in our
country are leading the world to a conclusion about people who follow Jesus in
a way that is fundamentally loyal to the Bible and the Holy Spirit:
John 16:1-3 "These things
I have spoken to you, that you should not be made to stumble. 2
They will put you out of the synagogues; yes, the time is coming that
whoever kills you will think that he offers God service. 3 And
these things they will do to you because they have not known the Father nor Me.
By calling Christians "intolerant", the culture is beginning to
"make righteous" the persecution of the intolerant. Yes, this
is intolerance itself, but that has never prevented this from happening.
It has happened MANY times. Are you ready for it to happen one last
time?
Revelation 13:5-9 And he was
given a mouth speaking great things and blasphemies, and he was given authority
to continue for forty-two months. 6 Then he opened his mouth in
blasphemy against God, to blaspheme His name, His tabernacle, and those who
dwell in heaven. 7 It was granted to him to make war with the
saints and to overcome them. And authority was given him over every tribe,
tongue, and nation. 8 All who dwell on the earth will worship him,
whose names have not been written in the Book of Life of the Lamb slain from
the foundation of the world. 9 If anyone has an ear, let him hear.
Getting an ear to hear now can save you a lot of pain later. There is a
safe place. It is learning to manifest the emotions of Jesus.
Having Biblical information about right and wrong apart from having
Jesus' emotions ABOUT right and wrong is akin to eating of the knowledge of
good and evil apart from the leadership of the Father. Knowing right from
wrong is different than AGREEING with Jesus about right and wrong.
Learning to agree with Jesus is what it means to learn His emotions.
This, according to the Bible, primarily happens in the Sermon on the
Mount. The Sermon on the Mount, taken to its full expression results in a
very specific kind of prayer meeting called "David's Tabernacle."
David was a student of God's emotions...and this made him safe in a time of
trouble. Are you safe? If you are, then you are finding yourself
more and more in prayer - to - music - meetings...
Psalms 27:3-6 Though an army
may encamp against me, My heart shall not fear; Though war may rise against me,
In this I will be confident. 4 One thing I have desired of the
LORD, That will I seek: That I may dwell in the house of the LORD All the days
of my life, To behold the beauty of the LORD, And to inquire in His temple.
5 For in the time of trouble He shall hide me in His pavilion; In
the secret place of His tabernacle He shall hide me; He shall set me high upon
a rock. 6 And now my head shall be lifted up above my enemies all
around me; Therefore I will offer sacrifices of joy in His tabernacle; I will
sing, yes, I will sing praises to the LORD.
