Let’s decide, at the fundamental core of our person, whether spiritual things are real or not. And, if they are real, let’s understand how to participate in that world more fully. - Pastor Allen Jackson

Amen Allen, there sure is absence of spiritual life in America inside the church, and out side of the Church. Help us Lord Jesus and forgive us lord we don't know what we do, and Lord Jesus, the light that was once shown in America has gone dim, but even now Lord your light can brighten our paths as we turn our hearts back to you.

Amen!

This reminded me of a well known internal preacher/teacher. I felt such confusion, grief, and so broken hearted. I had listened to his sermons many times. His sermon on Job was the best I had heard. I prayed continuously when the news came out. I asked the Lord to help me accept what was true , but not to let me believe lies. I read the report 3 times weeping and praying. I also listened to what his co workers said, and what the women said. I was grieved. I hated to accept it, but I must accept truth,whether against myself, or any person whether well known or not. If I refuse to search the evidence, then I am an idolater and not really loving the truth. I know I am blind to my own faults and sins. I found I must ask the Lord to show me myself as He knows me to be. He always answers and the truth is not pretty, comfortable, or easy. But if I love truth I must take myself before Him and let Him correct, discipline, and wound me. I found that others said he had No Accountability. No one could challenge or question him. He was not a member of a church as he traveled about 10 months of the year. We must have accountability. Must! We must have a teachable,willing Spirit to sustain us in our walk of faith. Don’t skip meeting with other Believers. After accepting the truth I asked the Lord how this man could have brought so many to believe in Him. I found the answer in Jonah. He was a lousy prophet. No one would want to be a prophet like Jonah. Yet, God used him to teach those pagan sailors about the creator God who made earth and sea and everything. His warning to Nineveh seemed to set a record for blunt and short. Yet God used it to bring Nineveh to repentance. It is not the instrument we should praise, but the God who uses the instrument. I learned a hard lesson; never set anyone on a pedestal. The moment we do that, we become idolaters.
There are many who attend church , even many preachers and elders, who have secret sins. We should be praying for our pastors and teachers. They do not need pedestals, they need accountability from people who love them. If any pastor or teacher cannot be challenged, if anyone of us cannot be challenged, let us be in our knees before God and pray for humility. No one can walk in relationship with the Almighty without humility.

The spirit of perversion, familiarity, murder, lust, deceit, all kinds of spirit is hovering around more now than before because it’s only us Christian n the Holy Spirit in us is restraining the antichrist. There’s only few groups of people left to hear the goodnews the end will come in Matthew 24
