Shared with me by Bishop Mikateko , a piece by Angelo Sanchez and it is the #RadicalTruth WE ARE TOLD TO PREACH THE WORD! TO BE READY IN SEASON AND OUT OF SEASON. TO CONVINCE, REBUKE, EXHORT, WITH ALL LONGSUFFERING AND TEACHING. FOR THE TIME WILL COME WHEN THEY WILL NOT ENDURE SOUND DOCTRINE, BUT ACCORDING TO THEIR OWN DESIRES, BECAUSE THEY HAVE ITCHING EARS, THEY WILL HEAP UP FOR THEMSELVES TEACHERS, AND WILL TURN THEIR EARS AWAY FROM THE TRUTH, AND BE TURNED ASIDE TO FABLES{ 2 TIMOTHY 4:2-4 } PREACHING THE GOSPEL( WORD ) AT THIS LATE HOUR WHEN THE CHURCH HAS CONFORMED TO THE WORLD IS NOT EASY TO DO TODAY, BEING THAT WORLDLY, CARNAL-MINDED CHRISTIANITY IS POPULAR WITH THE MAJORITY OF CHURCH GOERS. BUT THOSE WHO DO NOT WAVER IN PREACHING THE TRUE GOSPEL ARE CONSIDERED UNLOVING FOR EXPOSING THE APOSTATE CHURCH WHICH INCLUDES THE SEEKER FRIENDLY, EMERGENT, PROSPERITY AND PURPOSE DRIVEN CHURCHES THAT ARE SPRINGING UP ALL OVER THE WORLD AND ARE FILLED TO OVERFLOW EACH WEEK, ENTERTAINING, AND MOTIVATING RATHER THAN PREACHING THE GOSPEL SO THAT SOULS CAN BE WON FOR THE KINGDOM. WHY ARE SO MANY AFRAID TO PREACH SOUND DOCTRINE TODAY? IS IT BECAUSE WE FEAR WHAT OTHERS WILL THINK OF US? MANY CHRISTIANS SAY THEY WOULD BE WILLING TO DIE FOR CHRIST, YET IT SEEMS THEY ARE NOT WILLING TO LIVE FOR HIM. IF BEING A CHRISTIAN MEANT DEATH, WE WOULD SAY, YES I AM READY, BUT IF SERVING CHRIST MEANS SPENDING YEARS BEING UNPOPULAR OR POOR OR CRITICIZED OR IGNORED, MANY ARE READY TO PUT FAITHFUL CHRISTIANITY ON THE SHELF. IF WE TRULY DESIRE TO PLEASE GOD AND NOT MEN, WHEN GOD CALLS US TO PREACH THE WORD ,WE SHOULD RESPOND TO HIM WITH THESE WORDS, HERE AM I; SEND ME{ ISAIAH 6:8 } TO GOD BE THE GLORY!
