I ask you to prayerfully consider
what is written here, as I am sure it contains a message
from our Father for you, and your congregation. It is my
firm conviction that this letter came about as a result
of the promptings of the Holy Spirit. I pray you will
read with an open heart as to what the Holy Spirit would
speak to your heart.
If we are to ever see a much needed outpouring of our
Father's Spirit bringing revival, we must get serious about
our Father's Word, about prayer, and the way we live. We
must approach our Father with sincere humble hearts with
an attitude and willingness to sacrifice: sacrifice our
will, our desires, our comforts, and our pleasures. We
are in a war with Satan and his evil forces, and too many
of the Christians are skipping across the battle ground
like they are picking daisies!
As a pastor or leader of your congregation, you have an
obligation before God to preach and teach the WHOLE Word
of God, no matter if you think your congregation wants to
hear it or not. You may be surprised, for some are
hungry, and they are perishing for lack of the truth. If
some folks get mad and leave the church, so be it. Which
numbers are most important, how many are in the pews, or
how many are written in the Book of Life? Our Father will
ultimately bless if we take a stand for Him and put forth
His Word .
You will recall in John chapter six that many
quit following Jesus because He was not telling them what
they wanted to hear, but he told them the truth! Those
who believe and want to hear the truth will remain, as
those who remained with Jesus. You may say, "I
preach the WHOLE Word of God." If that is so,
"Bless You!"
Are you preaching Jesus - The WAY, the TRUTH, and the
LIFE?
Are you preaching REPENTANCE and what it means?
Are you preaching about the RESURRECTION of a soon coming
King who will judge the quick and the dead?
Are you preaching Romans 12:1-2 about
how our bodies are to be a living SACRIFICE, HOLY,
acceptable to our Father, which is our REASONABLE SERVICE
to the one who gave His life's blood for us?
Pastor, are you preaching Titus
2:11-12, how we are to live Godly and
pure in this PRESENT WORLD?
Are you preaching 1 John 2:15-17, where
we are told NOT to love the world and the things in the
world for it is not of the Father?
Are you preaching on Colossians
3, which tells us what to seek and
where to center our affections?
Are you preaching on 1 John 4,
preparing the sheep to test the spirits and not be
overcome with false doctrine?
Are you teaching them to keep their eyes on Jesus, to
compare their lives to God's Word and not to each other,
or to the world?
Pastor, I must ask you again, "Are you preaching the
WHOLE Word of Our Father?" Just as importantly
Pastor, "Are you living the
WHOLE Word of God?" Someone once said, "He who
has no fire in himself cannot warm others." Is your
heart right before God? Is your life in line with His
Word, and therefore pleasing to Him? If Jesus came to
visit you, could you take Him with you through your day
and not be ashamed? I pray you could.
If you are preaching the WHOLE Word of Our Father, and
living it like we are instructed to live it, again, I
say, "Bless you!" Know that our Father hears
your prayers and your work is therefore pleasing in His
sight.
If you are not preaching the WHOLE Word of Our Father . .
. . WHAT are you preaching? Please look to John 6:63, "It is
the Spirit that quickeneth; the flesh profiteth nothing:
the words that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and
they are life." John
6:45b, Jesus said; "Every man
therefore that hath heard, and hath learned of the
Father, cometh unto me."
In Isaiah 55:10-11, God
said; "For as the rain
cometh down, and the snow from heaven, and returneth not
thither, but watereth the earth, and maketh it bring
forth and bud, that it may give seed to the sower, and
bread to the eater: So shall my word be that goeth forth
out of my mouth: it shall not return unto me void, but it
shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall
prosper in the thing whereto I sent it."
This
letter to you, Pastor, is part of my reaching out. Did
you not go into the ministry to teach about our Father,
and to lead souls to Christ? Then teach HIS WORDS, not
words of the flesh! There is saving power ONLY in the
Word of God! 1 Corinthians 1:17; "For
Christ sent me not to baptize, but to preach the gospel:
not with wisdom of words, lest the cross of Christ should
be made of none effect".
Pastor, I ask you, for the glory of the Father, for the
sake of Jesus, for the souls of those who are perishing,
preach the WHOLE Word of Our Father. Preach it as you've
never preached it before . . . . like maybe your soul's
eternity depended on it.
May Jesus Christ lead and guide you into His perfect will
is my prayer.
