Just reporting on some odd things in the faith. One is I heard with all unsettling twisting of the thief on the cross that the thief was baptized in his own blood. Even that our lord and savior Immanuel (Christ) gave the thief the baptism of the Holy Ghost. This wasn't a baptism ceremony on the cross. Be careful of thinking such things as they can be nonsense.. Of course, he had the power to give people eternal life and forgive them even on the cross.
The other one is when we report they have made the house of God into a den of thieves and yes that's been put on my heart countless times in the spirit this is true and what happens is people in organized mainly probably biblical Christianity will think oh it's Satan trying to divide us. John 2:16 As you know God does not lie to us even if it's to do within daily jobs he tells us the truth even while it's hard to take it with acceptance. Christian preachers might know and they preach to their congregation sometimes it's better for you not to have a specific job that God took you out of it. Sometimes you would go to a job interview and God would put on your heart that this is not appropriate for you and being a believer you know he's telling you the truth even though you don't like it.
There is a division among Christians and they themselves one particularly lately not too long ago reported on this and he said it doesn't happen in any other faith like Christianity. That's true. One believes in Sunday worship and the other one only Saturday worship; seventh day. Another one believes in Christmas and another one believes it is paganism and idolatry. Another one believes in Easter and another one believes in Passover. These are issues at hand.
Then we have the organized Church building issues which some true Christians who have their own Ministry believe this is not of God and no one went to church in the first century plus. While other preachers will tell you God designed the Church congregation and assemblies and even the deacons that are within them have been assigned just as the apostles had assigned a replacement apostle. So certain preachers will defend their congregations and their office like for instance baptist preachers. They themselves will confess there have been many people that fell away and completely left the faith altogether or even born again believers that straighed away , unsure on being born again with some or went back to the world. James 4:4
So some of the issues with Church buildings as you know some of these prosperity preachers that have made a mockery out of the gifts of the spirit and have appointed perhaps women preachers, supported LGBTQ and now even AI preaching even made CCM music a part of their congregational services including bringing the world into the Church are questionable and some believers feel uncomfortable/betrayed . We also have a falling away and becoming lukewarm and then condemning true Ministries or true Christians that point things out not always in perpetual immediate discrimination or implication. So you see on the day of judgment Christ has a problem with all of this and he was expecting of course as we know a bride without wrenkle/stain. He's also very displeased with people that put their faith not in true doctrine but in the commandments of men that neglected the word of God and made it to none effect. You see it goes two fold on one hand they were extremely lukewarm and we're still embezzled in the world, not born again in the heart, and had not invested in him so he doesn't recognize them. On the other hand they did give works but they put their faith into their works while having a foot in (2) TWO kingdoms and you can't serve two masters.
Now unfortunately I have to touch on this because it's easy to judge another man's works without having ever met them in person. He said to go to them personally instead of condemning them. I'm talking about whatever faith you are if you're a Biblical Christian you go to your leader. So for example you might think another Christian doesn't suffer and refuses to suffer but you've never met them and you don't know their whole story you only assume even if they have given you a little bit of insight in some way. Do you SUFFER? You see the measure you use to judge others will be used against you and of course we know teachers are going to be held to the highest account. Just because it is written in the Book of Revelations the martyrs did not love their own lives to the death doesn't mean that you have to go that route because he is the God of life. I heard that Joshua prayed for GOD to take him out because he couldn't take it anymore. I heard that Moses disobeyed God and caused God grief.
Now the other thing I understand why some Christians like to stay away from the Hebrew roots of Christ because you're getting into some heavy things there. Matthew 27:3-10 John 8:44-45 I agree YOU don't have to become Jewish to be a gentile believer but the truth will set you free regardless. Unless you are a lover of falsehoods. Christ said nothing is hidden that won't be revealed. In that light I remember a friend of mine who passed away and he was worldly and not a true Christian and smoked, swore and was a world lover. Not so much evil in his heart because he would help me like nobody else would and when I became a true believer I had to rebuke him more than once. A lot of people cannot accept the truth nor are they living in it or even close to it.
