Open and Affirming Churches

"Enter by the narrow gate; for wide [is] the gate and broad [is] the way that leads to destruction, and there are many who go in by it. Matthew 7:13 NKJV

They approve of the lifestyle that is contrary to the Word of God. Is this any different than the OT when Israel would turn to the god's of the surrounding nations, and mix them with the One True God! It didn't work for them, and it won't work for the churches doing what this vid is talking about.

To answer the question in the vid. Can a person pastor a church and willfully live in sin? Yes, because it's happening, but should it be? NO! So, there will be a price to be paid, for doing so and for leading others astray! What many of these in these churches will hear:

"Not everyone who says to Me, 'Lord, Lord,' shall enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father in heaven. "Many will say to Me in that day, 'Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in Your name, cast out demons in Your name, and done many wonders in Your name?' "And then I will declare to them, 'I never knew you; depart from Me, you who practice lawlessness!' Matthew 7:21-23 NKJV

The darkness is continuing to grow even as the light of the believer is getting brighter, because the lines are being drawn with no middle ground for anyone. Of course, as the World sees/promotes it, you don't hear much about this light shining brightly in the believers, but they are out there!!! More importantly, be one! That others may see that light!

Yet, remember that when one does the correction to another, that one does it with the love that God showed us in bringing us to the light. He didn't hide the truth but showed us the truth with a love that was overwhelming and could not be resisted in the Holy Spirit! He showed the price paid by Christ Jesus, for our sin, for there was no other way to wipe the slate clean and bring us to our Holy Father! By His Blood!

Thank-you for sharing Brother, and God bless you and yours!
With the Love of Christ Jesus.
