The UNFAITHFUL church

 

James 1:8

King James Version

8 A double minded man 

is unstable in all his ways.


Why must we be steady in CHRIST in these times?

What is to happen to us if we have not found our faith?

Is there really reason to be alarmed?

Yes, there is.

Here's how Scripture describes the UNFAITHFUL church.

James 1:6

King James Version

6 But let him ask in faith, 

nothing wavering. 

For he that wavereth is like a wave of the sea 

driven with the wind and tossed.


Ephesians 4:14

King James Version

14 That we henceforth be no more children, 

tossed to and fro, 

and carried about with every wind of doctrine, 

by the sleight of men, 

and cunning craftiness, 

whereby they lie in wait to deceive;


1 Timothy 4:1-2

King James Version

4 Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, 

that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, 

giving heed to seducing spirits, 

and doctrines of devils;

2 Speaking lies in hypocrisy; 

having their conscience seared with a hot iron;


JESUS warns those with the "Jezebel spirit":

Revelation 2:18-24

King James Version

18 And unto the angel of the church in Thyatira write; 

These things saith the Son of God, 

who hath his eyes like unto a flame of fire, 

and his feet are like fine brass;

19 I know thy works, and charity, and service, 

and faith, and thy patience, and thy works; 

and the last to be more than the first.

20 Notwithstanding I have a few things against thee, 

because thou sufferest that woman Jezebel, 

which calleth herself a prophetess, 

to teach and to seduce my servants to commit fornication, 

and to eat things sacrificed unto idols.

21 And I gave her space to repent of her fornication; 

and she repented not.

22 Behold, I will cast her into a bed,

 and them that commit adultery with her into great tribulation, 

except they repent of their deeds.

23 And I will kill her children with death; 

and all the churches shall know that I am he 

which searcheth the reins and hearts: 

and I will give unto every one of you according to your works.

24 But unto you I say, 

and unto the rest in Thyatira, 

as many as have not this doctrine, 

and which have not known the depths of Satan

as they speak; 

I will put upon you none other burden.


It's time to make a stand.

Are you FOR, or against JESUS?

The double-minded man cannot receive anything of the LORD.

James 1:7

King James Version

7 For let not that man think 

that he shall receive any thing of the Lord.


The church must be steady. 

It's all preparation now.

We are in the last days.

Only JESUS can save us.

Ephesians 5:23

King James Version

23 For the husband is the head of the wife, 

even as Christ is the head of the church: 

and he is the saviour of the body.


There must be no division in the church.

1 Corinthians 12:25

King James Version

25 That there should be no schism in the body; 

but that the members should have the same care one for another.


For we are all members -- the BODY of CHRIST.

1 Corinthians 12:27

King James Version

27 Now ye are the body of Christ, 

and members in particular.


Our past, present, and future, has ALWAYS been with JESUS.

Ephesians 5:26-27

King James Version

26 That he might sanctify and cleanse it 

with the washing of water by the word,

27 That he might present it to himself a glorious church, 

not having spot, 

or wrinkle, 

or any such thing; 

but that it should be holy 

and without blemish.
