Currently, the institutional Church community is occupied with the issues of sodomite marriage and the ordination of sodomite clergy.  Yet, in the book of Lamentations, we are given the reasons why these issues are now before us."The kings of the earth did not believe nor did any of the world's people, that enemies and foes could enter the gates of Jerusalem.  But it happened because of the sins of her prophets and the iniquity of her priests, who shed within her the blood of the righteous (Lamentations  4:12-13)".  So then, the real issue before us is un-repentant murder among God's people, the result of which is sodomite ordination and marriage etc..  Since the 1961 doctrinal decision by the Council of Churches USA, to accept contraception birth control , plague after plague has befallen America, but none without cause.  If you have not already done so, please read and share the article "Come ye out from among them My People" at  www.life.org

Ephesians 1:22-23 tells us that the true Church is Jesus Christ, the body being one with the head.  Among the reasons the Apostle Paul wrote this to us was that when he was on the Damascus road, Jesus said to him, "Saul, Saul, why are you perscuting ME?" (Acts 9:4), as opposed to why do you perscute my followers.  The Church is to be Christ in this world and the Holy Spirit is here now and living in our hearts to help conform all believers to Our Lord's image and likeness, until He is all and in all.  God's one world order if you will.   "The earth was created for Him" (Col 1:16).  "The earth is the Lord's" (Psalm 24:1).  Until the whole earth is filled with the glory of God, Christ in us.  That was and still is God's plan for the earth and for mankind, and at the end of the day, God will have such a people, out from every nation, kindred and tongue.  This is the will of God - to populate the entire earth with Jesus Christ.  Christian parents raising Godly offspring is a major part of that plan.  So also is evangelization.  Have christian couples forgotten this?  Is their conjugal act now for pleasure only?  Is their motivation any different than the sodomite?  Once we remove God's plan from our vision, the earth's purpose will be aborted, and likewise, any organization calling itself the Church. 

When Christians first make a public confession, that Jesus Christ is the Son of God, the implication should be, that just as the voice from Heaven bore witnesss, that "this is My beloved Son in whom I am well pleased (Matt 3:17)", God made known His original intent when declaring "Let Us make man in Our image, according to Our likeness" (Gen 1:26).   John 3:16  says that Jesus is God's "only begotton Son",  Our focus here is on the word "only".  God does not have any other Son and therefore any other Church.  We are either in Him or we are out.  There is no other name under Heaven by which men can be saved.  No un-repentant murderers, sorcerers (including pharmakia) etc. will inherit the kingdom of Heaven (Gal 5:21)."

Although Hebrews 13:8 tells us "Jesus Christ is the same yesturday, today, and forever", it is becoming more and more apparent, that many who call themselves Christian, are demanding that Jesus Christ should be conformed to their image and likeness rather than they to Him.  You, dear saints, "may the God of peace Himself sanctify you completely; and may your whole spirit, soul, and body be preserved blameless at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.  He who calls you is faithful, and also will do it (1 Thes 5:23-24)".  For,"Unless The Lord build the house, they labor in vain who try to build it  (Psalm 127:1)".  Amen!
Brother John+
