"God's judgment is weighing on our countries." That's true, at least. When Israel turned away from God, God withdrew His protection and blessing. We should not expect better. As they went into slavery and exile, so we are falling into slavery and having our countries taken away from us. We need to call for repentance and for people to turn back to God. We need to pray for the Holy spirit is give us another revival and to convince the people again of sin, or judgements to come and of righteousness only through Jesus. Never before have we needed the call to 2 Chronicles 7:14 so much: "14 if my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and I will forgive their sin and will heal their land." We have had Marxist deceivers systematically take over education and journalism and the media in general. When we were supposed to be sending people to win the hearts and minds of others for our values, the authorities have been letting people turn the hearts and minds of generations of our own children against everything that is good. We need to pray for more and more people to wake up themselves and wake up the ironically named WOKE, before it is too late and the world is under the worst tyranny in history.

The info we have now and the true facts need to be shared to the congregation. I believe in Ancient Alien's. There is so much evidence now of visiting Aliens n UFOS. We need to call a spade a spade so to speak. The bible talks of people being taken up in a fiery cloud or a whirlwind. Mentions Jacobs Ladder, it's obvious it's talking about a spacecraft. All the ancient drawings on sacred rocks n buildings of people of almond shaped eyes and large heads. People need to accept the aliens have been visiting and in some cases always lived here, and are watching us. It mentions the Watchers in the Bible. Change Angels to Aliens. U will in my opinion not being far from the truth. .
The Rapture, will not save you. Just beliving in Jesus Christ and not doing what he sais is a Illusion. Do you keep the heathen Feasts of Sunday, Easter, All Saints and Xmas? Then Jesus will tell you, I know you not : why call me Lord and do not what I command you to do Matthew 7:21-23 and Matt.5:18-20 A Christian has to live and do the same thing as he did. He was a Jew and kept Gods Holy Feasts as commanded for ever Leveticus 23. Pray and keep Gods Commandments, then you will be saved.
A M E N !!!!! Yes! Hi Chris. We have had our own little house church/bible study group for over two years now because we don't 'fit in' with other so called churches. They never wanted the truth. They were afraid of man and of offending others merely to get bottoms on seats and not make waves! Thank God for your boldness and truth in this such dry land. Hopefully, see you Sunday God willing. Praise the Lord.

Oh my gosh,this new Islamaphobia law is dreadful, far worse than I could have imagined. I am a Christian and very concerned for this country. I fear that the Lord has handed it over because of the rejection of most of the people. I am in a church in Lincolnshire and we have only 10 to 12 people on a good day. Another one has 8 usually. It's shocking to see the disinterest in following Christ. Unfortunately my husband has been captured by this liberalism of Christianity. But I am praying for true Christians to stand up and be bold. I thank the Lord for you pastor Chris.
May the Lord God Of Israel And This Blessed Nation hold you fast and shelter you under His Wing And Yet, giving you His strength to boldly speak The Truth , Each And Every Day. God bless you Norma.
I can see in the future for the uk more mosques being built and many churches closing, we are heading to become a muslim state and under sharia law we have opened the floodgates.
Wow...didnt know there are british christians who still speak the truth like this. God bless you brother. Some of us from Africa come to uk and are shocked at what we find. May God revive the church in this land and wake sleeping Christians up.
Thank you Chris, you paint a very real and truthful picture of the state of our country. If I knew anyone interested, I would happily set up a home church. I speak what needs to be said about faith and God and hope to set up a prayer group. It is absolutely needed NOW
Yes to this! We have a house church in my village which God Himself orchestrated. Bringing each of us together from different local churches to go to war in prayer once a week, it’s a heavy, encounter filled night. We even take it to the streets some weeks. But we definitely need more people on the ground. The harvest is plentiful but the workers are few - Luke 10:2. How, then, can they call on the one they have not believed in? And how can they believe in the one of whom they have not heard? And how can they hear without someone preaching to them? - Romans 10:14 Let’s rise up!
100% agree this has been on my mind for months I thankfully belong to a church that preaches the word of God but it has been on my mind d to start a prayer group specifically to pray for this country that the Lord would be merciful to us and to bring this nation to repentance for our complacency and our lack of reverence and fear of the lord
Hi Chris, we have been doing house church for over 20years for all of your above reasons. Much fruit came from it. In the form of prophetic songs that are becoming more relevant as the time goes on. We were a very close group of people, especially the ladies. But right now we need a new group as several have gone on to be with the Lord. In the meantime occasionally we hope to continue to visit your church. The things you say I have been saying for more than 20 years it’s so refreshing to have a man of God speak truth the way you do. May the Lord strengthen you and keep you all. Servant of the Lord Ruth
Thanks Chris! I am surprised to finally hear a Pastor putting out this call. I am from Victoria, Australia. A state infamous for wokeness, corruption and political correctness. We started a house church over 5 years ago. The churches in Australia are apostate too. Thanks be to Jesus, there are still many very genuine people here who love and follow Him! Be blessed.
Thanks, Chris, for speaking up and sounding the alarm. On one hand, evangelism needed for new believers to be discipled in house churches. On the other hand, have to pray for brethren in established churches who share same burden and can be link persons to sound the clarion call, "Come out, My people! The time is short!" Raising a team of workers who can go into different churches to look for such brethren. Interceding for the Haggai generation to build the true House of God! It begins small and despised but according to God's empowerment and guidance, it will prosper. Amen.

Yes, they can still be found. I would begin with these small evangelical churches first, have their backing. There's many a start up cell group has broken up w/o outside support
God this in my heart too about the revival of "House Churches" not only in U.

Good idea . I stopped going to the catholic church a long time ago because i spent too much time defending the churches crimes and not enough time talking about god .

The Catholic Church (in England and Wales) has recently adopted the Authorised Version in place of the Jerusalem Bible in the Liturgy, so you might feel more at home now! Of course, the Authorised Version has been used since 1966 for teaching and study purposes and for all official purposes. So, you are not, in any way, “rebelling” against the Church by using the Authorised Version (although the Catholic Church, like the Church of England, has adopted revisions over the years - the 1946/52 RSV, then the 1971/72 RSV and now the ESV - but all still the Authorised Version, of course.
The true body and blood of Christ is in the church, so sorry that you don't realise this. Jesus is so sad over those who have left the catholic church. The Eucharist is really and truly the body and blood of Christ but Jesus was faced with those who walked away from Him when He said that 2000 years ago, He said to Peter and the apostles, ' will you also leave?'. Peter replied, where would we go? You have the message of eternal life 🙏
OMG! The Conquering Lion of the Tribe of Judah wins. GOD wins in the UK. I'm so blessed to know in this country, there are those who aren't afraid to speak up. Glory be to GOD. This word energises and infuses me with zeal to pray yet more for the UK. 🇬🇧 GOD be with and protect you beloved brother in the LORD. Amen ❤️
I live in the UK and I stopped going to church years ago due to the messyness but still have a close relationship with God and have been looking forward to House churches where I can fellowship with same minded (true bible believing) Christians.
Totally agree! I have just left Durham Cathedral because they have a large pink banner supporting Pride and walk through the city with the parade. Plus I have left for many other woke reasons. God Bless you 🙏🏻
Great talk, very true. When Daniel was exciled into Babylon, he kept faith in God and was kept safe by his powers. We need to use our conscience and act, speak the truth do not embrace the satanic campaigns of destruction. God be with you, Jesus is Lord.
This is So True and needed for this hour! Thank you for this video. There is not only a clear call to the believer but strategy to go along side it. Greatly appreciated and this issue has been on my heart for a long while now. House church - HERE WE COME !!!
Thank you! I've been struggling very much to find a church near me that I could get involved with, so I pray and worship at home, I watch a lot of youtube videos. I think house churches are such a good idea. When I was growing up we had neighbours who'd come over from Jamaica and they used to get together in the ladies house over the road and preach and sing.
Thank you so much and you are so right ....as we are moving into very dark times in the UK and yes us christians must now raise and be counted. I am in for the upcoming battle ahead and will be part in whatever is required to help keep the true church going and growing . We have Christ our Lord and Saviour on our side and yes the time has come to be bold and brave as the world around us is becoming bold and brave 🙏🙏🙏⛺️🌟⭐️🌞🌝
I am all for House Churches. I used to attend a church which was moving in the Spiritual gifts. The Pastor was so anointed that at his meetings, they called for the hire of another building. We fellowshipped on a Sunday morning, Sunday evening Wednesday and Friday. He really expounded the Word and there were miracles taking place. After some time, it was decided to also have house groups twice a week (church without walls). It worked so well, but eventually you had to telephone the host to see if there was enough room in her home. Unfortunately, the Pastor (I won't name him) came under attack (criticism)from other churches. To cut things short, he was offered another position in another country and he accepted. This young man was and is doing very well where he is but we all missed him. He was all for church without walls, as it was called. I think that there are some house groups run by others and yes, I agree, in the light of what is going on in the world, we do need to have church in houses.
I was born again over 60yrs ago and eventually gave up attending churches as Pastors I came across were not discerning men, and although I shared what the Holy Spirit revealed to me as a warning to the church, I was ignored so satanic emissaries arrived to do their evil work. The Pastors had no idea. It's never too late for the true children of God. We are dotted about here and there but it is so difficult when so many folk think they are born again but are not. I have spent years helping such people who were told to just pray the sinners prayer and they would be saved but some are not. No one comes to the Father except the Spirit draws Him ".
Sadly, much of the established church is now impotent and unfit for purpose. We now need to go back to how it was in the beginning - meeting in homes, encouraging one another and praying in all holiness and reverence as we watch and wait for His glorious return!
the established church has never been fit for purpose.....read church history....but God always keeps his church, his sheep, fed looked after and seeking other sheep for the fold
I know that this is counterintuitive but that is our God's way! House churches got us where we are and it would be house churches that gives the Holy Spirit , once again, the chance to lead and guide the body of the Lord to glory. We don't like it when something touches our comfort but history shows, that that is exactly what the Holy Spirit needs! This will untie His hands from our human grip and show us the power of His Might! Hallelujah! I pray that the Lord will strengthen your hands to do His work according to His will.
Refreshing words. No more soft play. No more ear tickling . Deliverance and targetted spiritual warfare prayers needed.A spirtual army. Raise up that standard,in Jesus name,for The Father's glory.🙏♥️
Thank you Chris. I've long felt that Christians need to think about (for want of better phraseology) being part of small, supportive Christian friendship communities that, organisationally, operate below the government's radar (but as individuals continue to be salt and light in this world, and serve other believers). My question to Christians is this: If your church building is forced to close, what is your backup plan to ensure continued fellowship with other believers? Some folk reading this may think -- oh well, not to worry, we'll cross that bridge when we come to it. I beg to differ. As the saying goes: the best time to fix a leaky roof is when the sun is shining. God bless you all.
We need to get back to the first century pattern of fellowship. When we unite and maintain 'one mind and heart' we will be equipped to face opposition and persecution, which is certainly building against us. A large number of true believers have left fellowships having been active faithful members for many years. They are now like spiritual refugees looking for few churches in their local area. We need the house movement to re-establish the future church.
Inspiring...Thank you Chris.. The institutions have indeed been invaded and even decent people often overwhelmed.. You are right to emphasise the vital importance of personal responsibility for evangelisation, building informal networks and fostering genuine fellowship. Bless you, Karen
My Dad had a friend who was a holocaust survivor. She eas Jewish, but after a miraculous escape from Germany and the kindness of many neighbours when she arrived with her mother and siblings as penniless refugee, the family became Catholic. She always said that many people don't have the confidence to stand up and speak in front of others. She was convinced that this lack of boldness was a big issue, because if people couldn't ordinarily find the courage to speak in front of others, then how would they do it in an oppressive atmosphere. She spent much of the rest of her life teaching public speaking. So training and discipleship will be ital, whatever model of church people are using.
If people are nurtured in small groups then they 'grow' up into confidence ...like a family nurturing their young and seeing them go out into the world with peers then venture out for them selves...same principle..it's also v healthy to recognise the BODY of Christ as we can go off ourselves believing we are right and using scriptures out of time..the Prophetic should submit to the Pastor who knows the timing for his flock but also be mindful of God's timing...when these two offices are in harmony we have God's Will
I thank God for you dear Pastor, at least you are standing for purity and for holiness. In the Lord. God bless you and your family and your ministry ❤.
Hoorah. Praise God for His confirmation and encouragement for two older sisters in Christ who have done just this, for all the reasons you have stated. In theses dark times, we must, 'Stand up, stand up for Jesus,' who gave His all for us, and be soldiers of The Faith. God bless you🙏 ❤
I'm in a Christian group of English believers on FB, and people are constantly asking if there is a church or home group near them. People are desperate for fellowship with other believers.
Agreed- just listened to Calvin Robertson and another Father who came over from Australia, only to be punished and pressured by the C of E to compromise , he stood his ground and was dismissed - I will find his name and put in comments
I am encouraged by your encouragement for house prayer and house church. That's been on our heart yet have not had the encouragement elsewhere other than on your video this morning. Thank you and I thank God for this. May God bless you. (Hatfield UK)
Pastor Chris I applaud you for this true and courageous message for Christians in UK. I arrived in the UK as a young Sri Lankan immigrant from a predominantly Buddhist country delighted to live, as I thought mistakenly, to live in a christian country. How wrong I was! We’ve lived here as British citizens for the past 35 years and am so saddened to see that the great British, Dutch, Portuguese missionaries who lived in such dire circumstances in our countries of who I was a beneficiary of the Christian calling to serve God in the world, are no longer around here. Praise God for someone like you who is not afraid to speak the truth. Do continue the good work which the Lord has called you to do here in the UK. Thank you and thanks be to God.
When I first saw a previous message by you I was so glad I was not alone in my realisation. And praise the Lord my wife showed me our vicar had posted a link and like to one of your posts.
My wife & I are part of a small house gathering every Saturday evening. We begin the evening with a meal round the table. We do communion after the meal and then we go with the guiding of the Holy Spirit in praise & worship and talking, reading scripture, sharing testimonies, basically doing life with one another. There is no programmes, no agendas, no reliant on one man to preach a sermon whilst the rest of us sit in orderly rows listening like good little lambs. Everyone takes part and has a role to play. I left the denominational, institutional Sunday set ups around 5 years ago and I don't feel called to return. As persecution increases in Britain over the coming years the church will meet more and more in homes and the Sunday set ups will be filled with so called Christians who only want to hear what their itching ears want to hear which is a cotton wool gospel.
9-23-24 U.S.A. I have been saying for years that we need to break down into house churches. Esp because I have always believe eved that I would live to see the persecution of Christians in the West ( including the U.S.). For this reason, I think the administration should be local, and with as little technology as possible. Jesus and the disciples didn't have technology, and walked or traveled by boat. Look at what they accomplished! Technology gives us a broader reach, but the time is coming when we will have to stop and think about how we are putting ourselves and others at risk by using it as a communication tool.

We need to call a spade a spade so to speak. The bible talks of people being taken up in a fiery cloud or a whirlwind. Mentions Jacobs Ladder, it's obvious it's talking about a spacecraft. All the ancient drawings on sacred rocks n buildings of people of almond shaped eyes and large heads. People need to accept the aliens have been visiting and in some cases always lived here, and are watching us. It mentions the Watchers in the Bible. Change Angels to Aliens. U will in my opinion not being far from the truth. .
100% agree. Christians must galvanise and highly visible in our faith. Thank you. 🙏
Thank you for uploading this message. Pray that God would send a revival throughout the UK.

Revival then rapture🙏
@endtimesareuponus8930 Why do you think so?
The Rapture, will not save you.
Just beliving in Jesus Christ and not doing what he sais is a Illusion.
Do you keep the heathen Feasts of Sunday, Easter, All Saints and Xmas?
Then Jesus will tell you, I know you not : why call me Lord and do not what I command you to do Matthew 7:21-23
and Matt.5:18-20
A Christian has to live and do the same thing as he did.
He was a Jew and kept Gods Holy Feasts as commanded for ever Leveticus 23.
Pray and keep Gods Commandments, then you will be saved.

A M E N !!!!! Yes! Hi Chris. We have had our own little house church/bible study group for over two years now because we don't 'fit in' with other so called churches. They never wanted the truth.
They were afraid of man and of offending others merely to get bottoms on seats and not make waves!
Thank God for your boldness and truth in this such dry land.
Hopefully, see you Sunday God willing.
Praise the Lord.
@thebishopelect You love people by telling them the truth...
@@starlite2525You are right. The truth is a rare commodity nowadays, but we (me including) must still have love. Very challenging because so much around offend me). Thank God for repentance when we fall.
This is exactly what is happening at our church….massive amount of fear of man, rather than pleasing God. It’s heartbreaking and not sure I can take it anymore 💔 😢
Be blessed and bear good fruit

Love the idea of House churches we need to be true to our belief systems
Well said brother
Onward Christian Soldiers
Oh my gosh,this new Islamaphobia law is dreadful, far worse than I could have imagined.
I am a Christian and very concerned for this country. I fear that the Lord has handed it over because of the rejection of most of the people.
I am in a church in Lincolnshire and we have only 10 to 12 people on a good day.
Another one has 8 usually. It's shocking to see the disinterest in following Christ.
Unfortunately my husband has been captured by this liberalism of Christianity. But I am praying for true Christians to stand up and be bold.
I thank the Lord for you pastor Chris.
May the Lord God Of Israel And This Blessed Nation hold you fast and shelter you under His Wing And Yet, giving you His strength to boldly speak The Truth , Each And Every Day.

Thank you Chris, you paint a very real and truthful picture of the state of our country. If I knew anyone interested, I would happily set up a home church. I speak what needs to be said about faith and God and hope to set up a prayer group. It is absolutely needed NOW
@carolhamnett2491 where are you exactly? I so want to join a house church. I live in Devizes Wiltshire...
Yes to this! We have a house church in my village which God Himself orchestrated. Bringing each of us together from different local churches to go to war in prayer once a week, it’s a heavy, encounter filled night. We even take it to the streets some weeks. But we definitely need more people on the ground.
The harvest is plentiful but the workers are few - Luke 10:2.
How, then, can they call on the one they have not believed in? And how can they believe in the one of whom they have not heard? And how can they hear without someone preaching to them?
- Romans 10:14
Let’s rise up!
whereabouts are you pls
@@rosw-gd9555 I’m in Peterborough
100% agree this has been on my mind for months I thankfully belong to a church that preaches the word of God but it has been on my mind d to start a prayer group specifically to pray for this country that the Lord would be merciful to us and to bring this nation to repentance for our complacency and our lack of reverence and fear of the lord
Hi Chris, we have been doing house church for over 20years for all of your above reasons. Much fruit came from it. In the form of prophetic songs that are becoming more relevant as the time goes on. We were a very close group of people, especially the ladies. But right now we need a new group as several have gone on to be with the Lord. In the meantime occasionally we hope to continue to visit your church. The things you say I have been saying for more than 20 years it’s so refreshing to have a man of God speak truth the way you do.
May the Lord strengthen you and keep you all.
Servant of the Lord

Chris Wickland is absolutely correct in these things. He is thankfully speaking vital truth. His exhortations should be heeded.
Thanks Chris! I am surprised to finally hear a Pastor putting out this call. I am from Victoria, Australia. A state infamous for wokeness, corruption and political correctness. We started a house church over 5 years ago. The churches in Australia are apostate too. Thanks be to Jesus, there are still many very genuine people here who love and follow Him! Be blessed.
So agree. 🙏🏼 from New Zealand 🇳🇿
Thanks, Chris, for speaking up and sounding the alarm. On one hand, evangelism needed for new believers to be discipled in house churches. On the other hand, have to pray for brethren in established churches who share same burden and can be link persons to sound the clarion call, "Come out, My people! The time is short!" Raising a team of workers who can go into different churches to look for such brethren. Interceding for the Haggai generation to build the true House of God! It begins small and despised but according to God's empowerment and guidance, it will prosper. Amen.
It’s never too late in God’s Kingdom
HE has brought us us all to this MOMENT to rally as his REMNANT to set up our CAMPFIRES of Praise and Worship
I am presently in a wilderness area surrounded by WOKE believers and I and my wife Decree and Declare against the darkness frequently when prompted by Holy Spirit
We wait upon JESUS who I know will send people of the SPIRIT to join us in these MOMENTOUS DAYS
Each day I have small revelations of the GLORY to come
Thank you for being obedient and sharing this WORD from Our Father and Saviour ❤
It resonates in at least one heart
Amen.
I left institutional church years ago. I read my Bible and pray at home with my wife because there aren’t any lively faithful churches near us.
No Eucharist then
@@physiocrat7143 "where 2 or 3 gather in my name there am I in the midst" Different views as to what the eucharist is . Two people at home can take the Lords supper doesnt need a Minister or Priest according to some peoples belief

@@22aef we are doing this already thanks. I’m reading about house churches now.
Myself and my husband did as you did...but he went home to Jesus in March and true churches in Norwich, Norfolk are few if not zero.
Everything you say is spot on. I, along with some other Christians, have planted a house church this year called Morda House Church because, like you, we understand what is happening to the church and the nation.
I agree. The WORD OF GOD has been misinterpreted and censored to adapt to the British politeness. Am with you brother. Am willing to house church.
Amen. This is a sound solution to the betrayal by so many churches in the world, today.
God bless you Pastor. God bless Great Britain. This is a message for all Christians here in South Africa too. We need to stand up and fight for our faith and for Jesus our Lord and Savior AMEN
It would be helpful if we had a network of house churches that are in touch and connected
Not relevant @thebishopelect
Brilliant! Thank you! We have just started a home church a couple of months ago! All glory to God, he is calling forward His soldiers to the front lines in these dark times! Hallelujah, we can overcome the darkness of this evil age through Christ! Praise God!

Well said Dave ,
Hello Chris Wickland, I ask God to bless you and your family, in Jesus Loving and Mighty name, amen.
Good idea . I stopped going to the catholic church a long time ago because i spent too much time defending the churches crimes and not enough time talking about god . I now pray at home i have my k j bible and i watch a lot of programmes such as this and bible teachings on line . Time to take responsibility for your own soul . Amen ❤🙏
Have you considered fssp? It’s a more traditional version of Catholic Church. They do the Latin Mass, not Novus Ordo.
Come back to Church. The Ark might smell in places but without it we will drown.
The Catholic Church (in England and Wales) has recently adopted the Authorised Version in place of the Jerusalem Bible in the Liturgy, so you might feel more at home now! Of course, the Authorised Version has been used since 1966 for teaching and study purposes and for all official purposes. So, you are not, in any way, “rebelling” against the Church by using the Authorised Version (although the Catholic Church, like the Church of England, has adopted revisions over the years - the 1946/52 RSV, then the 1971/72 RSV and now the ESV - but all still the Authorised Version, of course.
You must go to Church - Jesus is there in the Eucharist.. and His most Sacred Heart is waiting for you to visit 🙏🏻
The true body and blood of Christ is in the church, so sorry that you don't realise this. Jesus is so sad over those who have left the catholic church. The Eucharist is really and truly the body and blood of Christ but Jesus was faced with those who walked away from Him when He said that 2000 years ago, He said to Peter and the apostles, ' will you also leave?'. Peter replied, where would we go? You have the message of eternal life 🙏
OMG! The Conquering Lion of the Tribe of Judah wins. GOD wins in the UK. I'm so blessed to know in this country, there are those who aren't afraid to speak up. Glory be to GOD. This word energises and infuses me with zeal to pray yet more for the UK. 🇬🇧
GOD be with and protect you beloved brother in the LORD.
Amen ❤️
I live in the UK and I stopped going to church years ago due to the messyness but still have a close relationship with God and have been looking forward to House churches where I can fellowship with same minded (true bible believing) Christians.
Totally agree! I have just left Durham Cathedral because they have a large pink banner supporting Pride and walk through the city with the parade. Plus I have left for many other woke reasons.
God Bless you 🙏🏻
Oh my goodness. This is terrible. Shame on them. We must pray
Well said, Sir! I concur ...
Great talk, very true. When Daniel was exciled into Babylon, he kept faith in God and was kept safe by his powers. We need to use our conscience and act, speak the truth do not embrace the satanic campaigns of destruction. God be with you, Jesus is Lord.
This is So True and needed for this hour! Thank you for this video. There is not only a clear call to the believer but strategy to go along side it. Greatly appreciated and this issue has been on my heart for a long while now. House church - HERE WE COME !!!
Thank you! I've been struggling very much to find a church near me that I could get involved with, so I pray and worship at home, I watch a lot of youtube videos. I think house churches are such a good idea. When I was growing up we had neighbours who'd come over from Jamaica and they used to get together in the ladies house over the road and preach and sing.
I think you are absolutely right, I can’t believe the state our country is in , so very sad , I see the way things are going 😢 ❤🙏🏻
Thank you so much and you are so right ....as we are moving into very dark times in the UK and yes us christians must now raise and be counted. I am in for the upcoming battle ahead and will be part in whatever is required to help keep the true church going and growing . We have Christ our Lord and Saviour on our side and yes the time has come to be bold and brave as the world around us is becoming bold and brave 🙏🙏🙏⛺️🌟⭐️🌞🌝
Amen, so so true. God bless your outspoken truth regarding the state of our once great Nation.
The US I’d like this too.
I am all for House Churches. I used to attend a church which was moving in the Spiritual gifts. The Pastor was so anointed that at his meetings, they called for the hire of another building. We fellowshipped on a Sunday morning, Sunday evening Wednesday and Friday. He really expounded the Word and there were miracles taking place. After some time, it was decided to also have house groups twice a week (church without walls). It worked so well, but eventually you had to telephone the host to see if there was enough room in her home. Unfortunately, the Pastor (I won't name him) came under attack (criticism)from other churches. To cut things short, he was offered another position in another country and he accepted. This young man was and is doing very well where he is but we all missed him. He was all for church without walls, as it was called. I think that there are some house groups run by others and yes, I agree, in the light of what is going on in the world, we do need to have church in houses.
I was born again over 60yrs ago and eventually gave up attending churches as Pastors I came across were not discerning men, and although I shared what the Holy Spirit revealed to me as a warning to the church, I was ignored so satanic emissaries arrived to do their evil work. The Pastors had no idea. It's never too late for the true children of God. We are dotted about here and there but it is so difficult when so many folk think they are born again but are not. I have spent years helping such people who were told to just pray the sinners prayer and they would be saved but some are not. No one comes to the Father except the Spirit draws Him ".
Sadly, much of the established church is now impotent and unfit for purpose. We now need to go back to how it was in the beginning - meeting in homes, encouraging one another and praying in all holiness and reverence as we watch and wait for His glorious return!
the established church has never been fit for purpose.....read church history....but God always keeps his church, his sheep, fed looked after and seeking other sheep for the fold
I know that this is counterintuitive but that is our God's way!
House churches got us where we are and it would be house churches that gives the Holy Spirit , once again, the chance to lead and guide the body of the Lord to glory.
We don't like it when something touches our comfort but history shows, that that is exactly what the Holy Spirit needs!
This will untie His hands from our human grip and show us the power of His Might! Hallelujah!
I pray that the Lord will strengthen your hands to do His work according to His will.
Absolutely spot on!!
Thank you so much. I'm 100% with you.
Id attend a house church absolutely. I think its the way to go for Christians too. Its how they began. Small gathering in someones home.
Been in one for 40 plus years. Awesome.
The early church was in the home…let’s go back to the beginning.
Refreshing words. No more soft play. No more ear tickling . Deliverance and targetted spiritual warfare prayers needed.A spirtual army.
Raise up that standard,in Jesus name,for The Father's glory.🙏♥️
You are 100% right.
Thank you Chris. I've long felt that Christians need to think about (for want of better phraseology) being part of small, supportive Christian friendship communities that, organisationally, operate below the government's radar (but as individuals continue to be salt and light in this world, and serve other believers). My question to Christians is this: If your church building is forced to close, what is your backup plan to ensure continued fellowship with other believers? Some folk reading this may think -- oh well, not to worry, we'll cross that bridge when we come to it. I beg to differ. As the saying goes: the best time to fix a leaky roof is when the sun is shining. God bless you all.
We need to get back to the first century pattern of fellowship. When we unite and maintain 'one mind and heart' we will be equipped to face opposition and persecution, which is certainly building against us. A large number of true believers have left fellowships having been active faithful members for many years. They are now like spiritual refugees looking for few churches in their local area. We need the house movement to re-establish the future church.
Inspiring...Thank you Chris.. The institutions have indeed been invaded and even decent people often overwhelmed..
You are right to emphasise the vital importance of personal responsibility for evangelisation, building informal networks and fostering genuine fellowship.
Bless you,
Karen
My Dad had a friend who was a holocaust survivor. She eas Jewish, but after a miraculous escape from Germany and the kindness of many neighbours when she arrived with her mother and siblings as penniless refugee, the family became Catholic. She always said that many people don't have the confidence to stand up and speak in front of others. She was convinced that this lack of boldness was a big issue, because if people couldn't ordinarily find the courage to speak in front of others, then how would they do it in an oppressive atmosphere. She spent much of the rest of her life teaching public speaking.
So training and discipleship will be ital, whatever model of church people are using.
If people are nurtured in small groups then they 'grow' up into confidence ...like a family nurturing their young and seeing them go out into the world with peers then venture out for them selves...same principle..it's also v healthy to recognise the BODY of Christ as we can go off ourselves believing we are right and using scriptures out of time..the Prophetic should submit to the Pastor who knows the timing for his flock but also be mindful of God's timing...when these two offices are in harmony we have God's Will
I thank God for you dear Pastor, at least you are standing for purity and for holiness. In the Lord. God bless you and your family and your ministry ❤.
It's a pity we can't have the old tent revivals.
There are so many poor souls that need it.
Hoorah. Praise God for His confirmation and encouragement for two older sisters in Christ who have done just this, for all the reasons you have stated. In theses dark times, we must, 'Stand up, stand up for Jesus,' who gave His all for us, and be soldiers of The Faith. God bless you🙏 ❤
Repentance and revival are essential. Remember that persecution is not a sign of God's abandonment.
I'm in a Christian group of English believers on FB, and people are constantly asking if there is a church or home group near them. People are desperate for fellowship with other believers.
Please check out Simple Church at home. House church ministry I am part of for 6 years.
When even the crown doesn't want to defend the faith now,what can Christians expect.
I really believe this . Please can you pray for me to find true fellowship as it's hard . Thankyou God Bless 🇬🇧

Pastor Chris I applaud you for this true and courageous message for Christians in UK. I arrived in the UK as a young Sri Lankan immigrant from a predominantly Buddhist country delighted to live, as I thought mistakenly, to live in a christian country. How wrong I was! We’ve lived here as British citizens for the past 35 years and am so saddened to see that the great British, Dutch, Portuguese missionaries who lived in such dire circumstances in our countries of who I was a beneficiary of the Christian calling to serve God in the world, are no longer around here. Praise God for someone like you who is not afraid to speak the truth. Do continue the good work which the Lord has called you to do here in the UK. Thank you and thanks be to God.

My wife & I are part of a small house gathering every Saturday evening.
We begin the evening with a meal round the table. We do communion after the meal and then we go with the guiding of the Holy Spirit in praise & worship and talking, reading scripture, sharing testimonies, basically doing life with one another.
There is no programmes, no agendas, no reliant on one man to preach a sermon whilst the rest of us sit in orderly rows listening like good little lambs. Everyone takes part and has a role to play.
I left the denominational, institutional Sunday set ups around 5 years ago and I don't feel called to return.
As persecution increases in Britain over the coming years the church will meet more and more in homes and the Sunday set ups will be filled with so called Christians who only want to hear what their itching ears want to hear which is a cotton wool gospel.
Amen 🙏🏽

I have been saying for years that we need to break down into house churches. Esp because I have always believe eved that I would live to see the persecution of Christians in the West ( including the U.S.). For this reason, I think the administration should be local, and with as little technology as possible.
Jesus and the disciples didn't have technology, and walked or traveled by boat. Look at what they accomplished! Technology gives us a broader reach, but the time is coming when we will have to stop and think about how we are putting ourselves and others at risk by using it as a communication tool.
Greetings to you Chris from Cape Town in the Lord Jesus i would like to mention that i have family over there that have home Fellowship praying for the various issues over there
