Of the Most High

God's Nature in Action

I don't see how anyone can miss the absolutely horrible state of our world that is being experienced on so many fronts. And if anyone would take the time to observe, the fewer people being led by the Holy Spirit, the worse it gets.  Now there's probably no way to see this except in the exodus of what were once church-going people from the churches they attended.

The why is obvious--even in relatively "true" or "good" churches, there is so much falsehood being taught; so much lukewarmness; so much belief rather than truth.  In addition the leaders don't trust what they teach.  For example, one denomination, in order to address the current exodus, hired outside firms that specialized in making companies grow and figured out solutions when they weren't.  I was disgusted and thought, "Have we even remotely considered offering the church to The Most High?"  How can we expect the followers to build faith in God if the churches, themselves, look elsewhere for answers? The reason we don't have faith anymore is rather interesting; in large part it's because life has become too easy.  What we used to pray for, we no longer do.  We now rely one the government, insurance companies or investments to provide. Gone is relying on God to look after us.

Well, that's changing...rapidly.

Our world needs a whole new way of thinking and an entirely new way (in this modern era) of looking at things and expecting results. Interestingly, everything we are now experiencing was prophesied by Yeshua--wrongly renamed by Christian leaders as, "Jesus," which is Greek.  I suspect Satan is still smiling about the misdirection he managed to lead us on that—that the people who follow the Messiah don't even know His real name.  The two words mean the same thing, but Jesus is Greek, while Yeshua is Aramaic, a form of Judaism.

But this only symbolizes what wrong, it's not the problem; the problem is cumulative.

Before going any further, everything I tell has been learned in two ways: experience and study.

  

Last Easter (4/17/2022), we had a visitor to our church whom I had never been before.  After church we talked and she told me that she was not a church goer, but that she had brought her friend who was in her 80s and who had recently lost her husband and was very lonely.  Her friend was a life-long Presbyterian.  Then she hastened to add that, though she, herself, didn't go to church, she was very spiritual. 

I understood exactly what she was saying because church participation is not nearly as important as spirituality.  "Spirituality," to me, means walking close with the Source (God).  You can be religious without having any relationship with God...many are. Spirituality is closeness with the Source--meaning God.

Faith and belief are the base upon which standards, morals and ethics are based.  With out them we have no guidelines to live by other than self-gratification.

And that's where we're at today. 

Pray.
