A READER ADMONISHES US ALL

This is a regular reader at Blessed Quietness Journal and at this blog.

Beware of experience driven feel-good Christianity. Avoid any stadium type Christian pep (prayer, praise, worship, signs and wonders) rallies designed to be a spiritual experience through music, praise, prayer, contemplative worship etc. Hitler used stadium meetings to influence the masses (crowd psychology), and so do modern day stadium gatherings with mock healings headed by leaders acting as spiritual interventionists. 

Charismatic types flock to these events like they are candy! They feel if it tingles then it is of God, if there is a healing then it is of God, if the pastor delivered a powerful message that moved you emotionally then he must be of God, 

Get a grip on your proper authority which had better be the Word of God not sensual revelation, or else you will be whirled about with every wave of emotional experientialism. These assemblies work off the premise that there is a collective spiritual power in the Christian assembly experience with divine veto power over the works of darkness and the problems with society and within your lives. 

God will not be persuaded by crowds. His will is immutable! Based upon the freewill choices that you and I make. Rallying will not bring about global peace just because you decided to assemble in one accord, so what, God is not impressed. Get right with God and get His word out in your daily lives vocally. 

But throwing a prayer tantrum will not solve anything. Oh but it was so powerful, if you had only been there. Yeah, Yeah been there, done that, seen it from the back room, from the secret chambers where it is all devised and planned. Do you think that God is compelled to move spiritually in your weak assemblies? God is not your genie nor is He at your beck and call. He is not impressed; He is angry. 

If American Christians had been obeying the Word of God all along, then this country would not be in its current state of decadence and it wouldn't be so ripe for the judgment of God which begins at the house (assemblies) of God by the way!

Isa 1:13 Bring no more vain oblations; incense is an abomination unto me; the new moons and sabbaths, the calling of assemblies, I cannot away with; it is iniquity, even the solemn meeting.

1Pe 4:17 For the time is come that judgment must begin at the house of God: and if it first begin at us, what shall the end be of them that obey not the gospel of God?

In Christ,


Chris
