"PREACH THE WORD"

[rwbovee]

"Preach the word; be instant (constant) in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all longsuffering and doctrine." 2 Timothy 4:2. I'm thankful that I happen to have a local pastor who preaches the word week after week. Not politics. Elections come and go, but you wouldn't know if she was a Republican or a Democrat. I have a lot of ideas on this, but they shouldn't be espoused from the pulpit.

Notice preach it "out of season." When it's popular or it isn't popular. Today it's popular to be preaching "Christian Zionism" when the Jews are for the most part a powerful, wealthy people. Today it's popular to preach that there's nothing wrong with Catholicism, when they are also today for the most part a powerful, wealthy people. Same with Masons. Same with Satanists really.

My Bible still says "doing nothing by partiality." I don't think we have any business showing partiality to the Jews over the Moslems. My Bible still says don't call anyone on this earth your Father, Rabbi, or Master except Jesus Christ. My Bible still says to not make or bow down to idols or statues. My Bible still says "Blessed are ye poor, for yours is the kingdom of God."

My Bible still says "all the proud, yea, and all that do wickedly shall be stubble." My Bible still says "Go to now, ye rich men, weep and howl for your miseries that shall come upon you." Jimmy Swaggart's "sermon" this week was entirely a book report of a book he had written attacking the Moslems. The pulpit isn't the place for book reports. Preach the word, preach the gospel. Jack Van Impe's as usual in recent years was about half gospel and half politics.

And his politics is now all "politically correct." The lodge is good, Catholicism is good, Judaism is good, Moslems are bad. War is good. Fight the Moslems because of 9/11. He didn't used to "preach" this way ten or fifteen years ago. And this same kind of "preaching" is going on over most of "Christian" radio, "Christian" television, and probably most pulpits across the world today.

We are to preach the word, the gospel, because this is the ONLY thing that has the POWER to save our souls. "For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ, for it is the POWER of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek." Romans 1:16.

2:3 Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come,
except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be
revealed, the son of perdition;

Had to happen rw.

Corporate churchianity has gone. Sailed away on the winds of apostacy.

Best we can do is reach out to a few individuals in small communities and forums, and preach to the unsaved..
