The LORD has created and then died to save you into His kingdom family. He saved you primarily and first and foremost to know Him (John 17:3). This relationship with the LORD must always be first priority and anything else is damning idolatry (Exodus 20:3-4).

Some people are so worn out by their involvement with their local “church” that they don’t even deeply study God’s Word for themselves. Something’s got to give – and for the God-fearing, the local church involvement will give!

“Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.” 2 Timothy 2:15

Many today are so busy going to “church” that they don’t have time for God.

TODAY: A dear Christian young lady asked me why I am not part of a church group any longer. A gently-communicated a litany of doctrines purposely not being taught in the modern churches. Also the fact that that the King James Bible is no where to be found. They only use pitifully lame fake “bibles.” It’s a busine$$ to the modern pastors who refuse to preach cardinal biblical doctrines such as the divinity of Christ (Christology), hell, repentance, judgment to come, confessing and cleansing ourselves of all sin, the return of Christ and being ready for it at all times, the cross – crucified life, etc.

In these modern churches church (cult) members are conditioned by the pastors to fish for new church members – not to minister the Gospel, the Word, and win souls to Jesus – but rather to “church the unchurched” for the self-serving benefit of the CEO pastors who are building their own kingdom in this fleeting world.

Anyone attempting to make you their “church member” is corralling you for their own self serving purposes. You are bought by the very and precious blood of Christ and made a member of His universal body of saints (Romans 12; 1 Corinthians 12; Ephesians 4, etc.). That’s your identity, not some local church and being a member of it. 38 times the Bible uses the word “body” to describe the people of God the world over, the whole body of Christ. This clearly communicates that Jesus does not desire that His people pigeon hole their perspective into one local gathering, one building on Sunday morning, but rather to love all of His children no matter where they may be geographically. Such created sectarianism which is what Christ rebuked in His then young disciples.

“And John answered and said, Master, we saw one casting out devils in thy name; and we forbad him, because he followeth not with us. 50 And Jesus said unto him, Forbid him not: for he that is not against us is for us.” Luke 9:49-50

The sectarianism, the separation we see today causes born again saints to feel one with the believers at their local gathering on Sunday morning and yet distant from those blood-bought saints they work with on Monday morning.

So many today waste their time, energy, money, and allegiance on a local church – instead of Jesus! Sad.

Contrary to popular belief, Jesus says “Come unto me” and “Follow me”, and not “Go find a church and join it.” (Matthew 11:28-30

Jesus and the apostles went to the people for the most part of their ministries. (Matthew 9:35-38; Book of Acts). A physical building called “church” doesn’t make someone an official minister of Christ. In most cases, pulpits in buildings are “manned” by wolves in sheep’s clothing who’ve set up a church busine$$ (2 Peter 2:1-3).

Jesus didn’t die to make His people good church attenders or members but rather His disciples – those who “daily” deny self, take up the cross and follow HIM (Luke 9:23-24).

“And Jesus said unto them, Come ye after me, and I will make you to become fishers of men.” Mark 1:17

There is no record of Jesus or His holy apostles teaching men to become good church members or attenders! Read that again please. Making men good church attenders or members is the work of wicked religious men! Beware. Follow Jesus!

Faithful to fellowship, which should be “DAILY”, is God’s will and not church attendance once or twice weekly at a certain location!

“Beloved, when I gave all diligence to write unto you of the common salvation, it was needful for me to write unto you, and exhort you that ye should earnestly contend for the faith which was once delivered unto the saints.” Jude 3

The modern church is catering to the carnal instead of preaching the whole counsel of God’s Word (2 Corinthians 2:17; 2 Timothy 4:2-4). Beware of the cross-less false gospel being peddled by those God says are “accursed” for preaching “another gospel” (Galatians 1:6-9). They are the “enemies of the cross of Christ” our LORD (Philippians 3:18-19). | The Modern Church Exposed

God’s will is for each of those He saves is to become grounded in a “daily” cross walk with Him (Luke 9:23-24).

Identity Check: As a blood-bought, born again saint of Christ, you’re not a church member of a local church. Stop it. You are a born again, blood bought son/daughter of the King of all kings who came and died, was buried, and raised again from the dead to purchase you to Himself. You are a member of the one, universal body of Christ! You were bought with Christ’s blood and belong to HIM and not some man’s ministry, organization, or circus called “church” (1 Corinthians 6:19-20; 7:23; Isaiah 2:22).

SO you go to church yet aren’t learning God’s Word, aren’t digging in it daily, diligently, aren’t ministering to others? Wow! You are clearly “lukewarm” and have been snared in the trap of the devil, ready to be spued (rejected) as Jesus promised (Luke 3:15-16). Repent now and run for your life – lest you go to hell with the wicked (Matthew 24:10-13; Revelation 3:15-16).

Christine Farr writes: “Subject: Questions on The Truth About Church Attendance’

UPDATE FROM A DEAR SISTER WHO READ THIS POST AND LISTENED TO THE PODCAST:

Christine Farr writes: “Subject: Questions on The Truth About Church Attendance

Message: You wrote, ‘Think about this: How many church-attending Christians do you personally know who are on fire, Christ-glorifying, Scripture-literate daily disciples?’ Well, this is one of the issues I was contending with: Here I sit (with my husband), a student of the Word, not a scholar by any measure but a serious student who has a pretty good grasp of the Scriptures. And all around me are babes in Christ who have been like that (babes) for as long as I’ve known them! AND they are more faithful to church than I am (and more faithful to church than to God!). But I am the one growing and learning …. and they are still in grade school, babes. And my education has not come to me solely from the preaching of the Word but mostly (99%) from my own personal studies. I also see this contradiction. So, I talked to the Lord about It, and He began to stir something in me that caused me to feel like sitting in church was a waste of time as I could use that time to be home at my desk studying and learning the Word. The fact that my husband was on the same page with me was a confirmation that God was working. Then my dear Christian sister said the most profound thing to me when I explained my situation, ‘You’ve outgrown that pastor.’ God knows how to answer our prayers!”

WE SHOULD CONSIDER STARTING a fellowship grounded in Christ, upon His Word….. “finding a church” is futility in these final days and nothing but a trap. Simply facilitate a gathering (Hebrews 10:25). We must be HIS church 😉 Check this out: Fellowship Defined by Holy Scripture

There’s no doubt that some church gatherings offer at least a small measure of edification for believers. Yet, we must take a step back and ask this question: Just what has the modern church–all this attending church–really produced?

Think about this: How many church attending “Christians” do you personally know who are on fire, Christ-glorifying, Scripture-literate daily disciples?

If God is calling you out of the church attendance lifestyle, which has robbed, ruined, wasted, and damned untold millions, obey Him. It’s late. Isn’t it time to mobilize and use your faculties, your life, your energies and resources for Christ’s kingdom and cease building the church businesses of sinful men?

Isn’t it time we stopped funding the frauds and their carnal aspirations and agendas?

Jesus never told us to just “huddle up” or to make gathering together an end in and of itself. No, He commanded us to …

“Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature.” (Mark 16:15)
“Occupy till I come.” (Luke 19:13)
etc.

If it be for this reason alone, all true disciples today, in this final hour, should depart from the modern church:

“I know thy works, that thou art neither cold nor hot: I would thou wert cold or hot. 16 So then because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spue thee out of my mouth.” Revelation 3:15-16

According to Christ, all it takes to go to hell is to get saved and then die lukewarm.

Oh and it’s not till you come out of Sodom as did Lot, that you look back from a distance and see the Christ-denying catastrophe of the modern church for what it is – bellowing with smoke, up in flames, torched from Heaven!

“And I heard another voice from heaven, saying, Come out of her, my people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues.” Revelation 18:4

Read the Bible for yourself beloved. Read it daily, thoroughly, intentionally, intently – to know its Author – the One who shed His blood to save you unto Himself (John 17:3).

“Study to shew thyself approved unto God (you do it!), a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.” 2 Timothy 2:15

Did John the Baptist corner himself in a weekly mutual admiration society clown show call the “church”? No. Did Jesus and His apostles? No. The fellowship spoken of in the often misused verse of Hebrews 10:25 is not at all what we see in the modern church world.

You allegiance is first to God and then to His people – daily – and not some church business that is doing nothing to root and ground you deeply into Christ. | Rooted and Grounded in Christ

“As ye have therefore received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk ye in him: 7 Rooted and built up in him, and stablished in the faith, as ye have been taught, abounding therein with thanksgiving. 8 Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition of men, after the rudiments of the world, and not after Christ. 9 For in him dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead bodily. 10 And ye are complete in him, which is the head of all principality and power:” Colossians 2:6-10

True fellowship in the New Testament record looks more like Acts 2:42-47.

“And they continued stedfastly in the apostles’ doctrine and fellowship, and in breaking of bread, and in prayers. 43 And fear came upon every soul: and many wonders and signs were done by the apostles. 44 And all that believed were together, and had all things common; 45 And sold their possessions and goods, and parted them to all men, as every man had need. 46 And they, continuing daily with one accord in the temple, and breaking bread from house to house, did eat their meat with gladness and singleness of heart, 47 Praising God, and having favour with all the people. And the Lord added to the church daily such as should be saved.” Acts 2:42-47

Only the LORD Himself can add to His blood-bought church in the earth. Notice “THE LORD ADDED TO THE CHURCH daily such as should be saved” in contrast to false leaders building their own nickels, noses, and numbers via church membership, etc. (Acts 2:47) Mere men who seek to “church the unchurched” are self-willed rebels operating under their own self-serving greedy agenda, using the name of the LORD in vain to build their own empires – void of essential biblical truths such as the virgin birth and divinity of Jesus Christ, hell, judgment to come, the imperative of repentance, holiness, etc. Only Christ, the Head of His body, can add to HIS church which He promised He would “build.” … “I will build MY church.” (Matthew 16:18) While enterprising antichrist’s build their own “churches”, Christ is building His one remnant body, organically!

Just as is the case with your body, your spiritual immune system is made healthy by the intake of clean healthy foods, right? Right. Ingesting the words of God daily, plentifully, diligently, and voraciously, is essential to your spiritual health (Jeremiah 15:16).

True vs False Fellowship [podcast]

One of the main and stated reasons for fellowship is to prevent God’s people from falling away. Notice: “Take heed, brethren, lest there be in any of you an evil heart of unbelief, in departing from the living God. 13 But exhort one another DAILY, while it is called To day; lest any of you be hardened through the deceitfulness of sin. 14 For we are made partakers of Christ, if we hold the beginning of our confidence stedfast unto the end;” Hebrews 3:12-14 If your “fellowshipping” is limited to Sunday mornings, instead of “daily”, as Scripture prescribes, you […]

Wolves Who Deceive, Devour, and Defund their Prey [podcast]

Jesus and His holy apostles often rebuked and exposed false leaders and false doctrine (Matthew 23; Acts 13:10; 20:29-31; Galatians 5:11-12; 2 Timothy 4:2-4; 2 Peter 2; 2 John 7-11; Revelation 2:6, 15, etc.). Therefore we know that part of following Jesus includes doing the same. In fact, the body of Christ is mandated to do just that (Romans 16:17-18; Philippians 1:17; Colossians 1:28; Jude 3-4). Simply put, it doesn’t matter what you think: The LORD has commanded that Satan’s ministers, his human emissaries, be exposed. Time to shut up and obey! (2 Corinthians 11:12-15) “Let God be true and […]

Jesus and His holy apostles often rebuked and exposed false leaders and false doctrine (Matthew 23; Acts 13:10; 20:29-31; Galatians 5:11-12; 2 Timothy 4:2-4; 2 Peter 2; 2 John 7-11; Revelation 2:6, 15, etc.).

This is a deceiver and an antichrist. 8 Look to yourselves, that we lose not those things which we have wrought, but that we receive a full reward. 9 Whosoever transgresseth, and abideth not in the doctrine of Christ, […]

What is our Highest Priority as we see Christ’s Return Nearing? [podcast]

What’s most important?

How do we want Christ to find us when He splits the eastern sky?

“And Jesus said unto him, No man, having put his hand to the plough, and looking back, is fit for the kingdom of God.” Luke 9:62

“Now the just shall live by faith: but if any man draw back, my soul shall have no pleasure in him.” Hebrews 10:38

“Therefore, my beloved brethren, be ye stedfast, unmoveable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, forasmuch as ye know that your labour is not in vain in the Lord.” 1 Corinthians 15:58

“And he said unto them, How is it that ye sought me? wist ye not that I must be about my Father’s business?” Luke 2:49

“And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come.” Matthew 24:14

“Say not ye, There are yet four months, and then cometh harvest? behold, I say unto you, Lift up your eyes, and look on the fields; for they are white already to harvest. 36 And he that reapeth receiveth wages, and gathereth fruit unto life eternal: that both he that soweth and he that reapeth may rejoice together. 37 And herein is that saying true, One soweth, and another reapeth. 38 I sent you to reap that whereon ye bestowed no labour: other men laboured, and ye are entered into their labours.” John 4:35-38

In light of the end time events transpiring before our eyes we are keeping our:

Eyes to Jesus (Luke 21:28; Colossians 3:1-4; Hebrews 12:1-3).
Hand to the plough of His work (Luke 9:62).

“…Work out your own salvation with fear and trembling. 13 For it is God which worketh in you both to will and to do of his good pleasure.” Philippians 2:12-13

“All we can do is not look left or right but keep our eyes on Jesus. He’s coming soon! This is becoming a time when people’s hearts will fail them for fear! Luke 21:26. Because our world is definitely being shaken. Our foundation needs to be built on Christ, not sinking sand (Matthew 7:24-27). Or we will fall. Building our house means not just hearing God’s Word but obeying Him. Build your life on the Word of God! Then when these things come to pass you will not fall.” Karen Cochran

“The kingdoms of this world are become the kingdoms of our Lord, and of his Christ; and he shall reign for ever and ever.” Revelation 11:15

Here’s one of the responses given to this man in that conversation:

“Nothing of this offends me. Just iron sharpening iron concerning sound doctrine (Titus 2:1). ‘But speak thou the things which become sound doctrine’ (Titus 2:1). 2 Peter 1:3-4 informs us that ‘ALL things that pertain unto life and godliness’ are found in God’s Word, in His ‘exceeding great and precious promises.’ Why then do we resort to using extra biblical symbolism, especially that which is out of a known pagan, blasphemous religion? Certainly the Holy Spirit is not behind such. If we are truly in Christ’s service, we should use Christ’s Word and not something contrary to it (Colossians 3:16; 2 Timothy 3:15-17). Do we not mislead when we do such?

There is no such thing as a Christian psychologist. Such must be denounced, and will be, unless we are still walking in the flesh and not the Spirit. Jesus taught against using titles (Matthew 23:8-12). Nothing Christian about Psychology. Title Touters safeguardyoursoul.com

Paul denounced….

“For we are the circumcision, which worship God in the spirit, and rejoice in Christ Jesus, and have no confidence in the flesh. 4 Though I might also have confidence in the flesh. If any other man thinketh that he hath whereof he might trust in the flesh, I more: 5 circumcised the eighth day, of the stock of Israel, of the tribe of Benjamin, an Hebrew of the Hebrews; as touching the law, a Pharisee; 6concerning zeal, persecuting the church; touching the righteousness which is in the law, blameless. 7 But what things were gain to me, those I counted loss for Christ. 8 Yea doubtless, and I count all things but loss for the excellency of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord: for whom I have suffered the loss of all things, and do count them but dung, that I may win Christ, 9 and be found in him, not having mine own righteousness, which is of the law, but that which is through the faith of Christ, the righteousness which is of God by faith: 10 that I may know him, and the power of his resurrection, and the fellowship of his sufferings, being made conformable unto his death; 11 if by any means I might attain unto the resurrection of the dead.” Philippians 3:3-11

Salvation, ministry, is all about Jesus Christ, not us.

“That no flesh should glory in his presence. 30 But of him are ye in Christ Jesus, who of God is made unto us wisdom, and righteousness, and sanctification, and redemption: 31 That, according as it is written, He that glorieth, let him glory in the Lord.” 1 Corinthians 1:29-31

“And I, brethren, when I came to you, came not with excellency of speech or of wisdom, declaring unto you the testimony of God. 2 For I determined not to know any thing among you, save Jesus Christ, and him crucified. 3 And I was with you in weakness, and in fear, and in much trembling. 4 And my speech and my preaching was not with enticing words of man’s wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power: 5 That your faith should not stand in the wisdom of men, but in the power of God.” 1 Corinthians 2:1-5

Asking the LORD to strip you and build you from the ground up – HIS way and no other. Ask Him to remove every trace, every iota of flesh, of deceit, of evil (2 Corinthians 7:1).

“See, I have this day set thee over the nations and over the kingdoms, to root out, and to pull down, and to destroy, and to throw down, to build, and to plant.” Jeremiah 1:10

“Sow to yourselves in righteousness, reap in mercy; break up your fallow ground: for it is time to seek the LORD, till he come and rain righteousness upon you.” Hosea 10:12

Kingdom echelon? If there is any echelon in Christ’s kingdom, perhaps this is it, right? …. “But he that is greatest among you shall be your SERVANT.” (Matthew 23:11) ALL who call themselves “apostle” or “prophet” are self-promoting.

Title touters are completely SELF-centered and need to repent, lay down their lives, be crucified with Christ, and follow Jesus (Matthew 23:8-12). Are those who use titles not broadcasting their pride for all to see? Does Using Titles Draw Attention to Mere Men While Stealing Glory from Jesus Christ? JESUS CHRIST is the only Celebrity in Heaven. The last time a phony “celebrity” self-actualized, the LORD booted that devil!

“But God, who is Rich in Mercy” [podcast]

“1 And you hath he quickened, who were dead in trespasses and sins;
2 Wherein in time past ye walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that now worketh in the children of disobedience:
3 Among whom also we all had our conversation in times past in the lusts of our flesh, fulfilling the desires of the flesh and of the mind; and were by nature the children of wrath, even as others.
4 But God, who is rich in mercy, for his great love wherewith he loved us,
5 Even when we were dead in sins, hath quickened us together with Christ, (by grace ye are saved;)
6 And hath raised us up together, and made us sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus:
7 That in the ages to come he might shew the exceeding riches of his grace in his kindness toward us through Christ Jesus.
8 For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God:
9 Not of works, lest any man should boast.”

Does "Abide" Mean that One Must Continue? Is Your Salvation Secure? [podcast]

Must one “abide” in Christ to the end after being saved in order to be in eternal glory with Christ, the Father, and their saints? Yes. “Abide in Christ” means to remain, dwell, or live in a continuous, intimate relationship with Jesus Christ. It’s about maintaining a close connection, relying on Him, and allowing His Word to shape one’s thoughts, will, and affections. Essentially, it’s about a life lived in constant communion with Christ.” Typically, like the false religionists of Christ’s day, they put aside the WORD of God to keep their heretical tradition. In others words, they made their […]

God Blesses those who Read His Word [book]

God Blesses those who Read His Word

“Blessed is he that readeth” Revelation 1:3

“Seek ye out of the book of the LORD, and READ.” Isaiah 34:16

“Rightly dividing the word of truth”

“Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.” 2 Timothy 2:15

YES God’s people are to “study” His Word and how else to do such than to begin by “READING” His words? 2 Timothy 2:15

“Till I come, give attendance to READING, to exhortation, to doctrine.” 1 Timothy 4:13

“Blessed is he that READETH ….” Revelation 1:3

Years ago I found that if I don’t get up early to read God’s Word and spend quality moments in prayer first and foremost, it will never happen. God must be put first and this requires ruthless discipline.

“But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.” Matthew 6:33

Reading all of God’s Word is the priority of every astute follower of Jesus.

There’s no way to learn God’s Word other than reading it yourself (2 Timothy 2:15). God gave you His Word in tangible format in order for you to learn of Him, from Him, and by Him. Those who leave it to others to teach them God’s Word are self-deceived and will be misled by those they depend on to teach them the Bible.

“I have esteemed the words of his mouth more than my necessary food.” Job 23:12

O the beauty of doing things God’s way. When things are done our LORD’s way, His blessings ensue! Blessings will chase you down! Are you putting GOD first in your life, truly, literally?

“But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.” Matthew 6:33

“The joy and rejoicing of mine heart”

“Thy words were found, and I did eat them; and thy word was unto me the joy and rejoicing of mine heart: for I am called by thy name, O LORD God of hosts.” Jeremiah 15:16

GOD’S WORD

Saints, in order that some may be encouraged, below, let’s talk about our current personal Bible reading…..

“Presently, I am in 1 Kings, reading all the way through the Bible again, and also reading through Revelation backwards. Personally I like to read several chapters every morning to begin the day and like to include OT, Poetic books, and New Testament chapter readings….. along with pouring over passages like 1 Cor 13; Phil 2:3-5; Col. 3:1-4, 12-14;” Todd

“In 1 Thessalonians reading through the Bible.” Jason

“I am reading Mark.” Michele

“Philippians—Paul’s letter in prison—and joy.” Joe

“I Been Reading James And 1st And 2nd Peter This Week.” Connie

“Working my way through 1 Sam (ch 14 finished now) Psalms 77 and John chapter 4 finished. Trying to read through in 6 months. I enjoy listening (KJB on YouTube) while I read also.” Nathan
