WHY?

[rhomphaeam]

There are many issues in life which we have received to ourselves that have given rise to anger and fear. When we were children and into our teens we found that our face was often set at variance with those who were given charge over us. Be that our father and mother, the policeman and the teacher, or the doctor and the judge. We did not understand then - and yet we became angry and often deeply afraid. Our fear caused us to turn inward and our anger caused us to turn against ourselves and others.

Yet even were this not so we are no less made of flesh and may be no less always seeking the Father to deliver us from our childish ways - which when we see them in our own children we suddenly understand that we are seeing our selves. If then we see ourselves in our children how can we not receive the deliverance that the Father has given us in Christ? To do otherwise is to either see our children run ahead of us or else to see them stumble always.

One of the most pernicious undertakings which we have witnessed over the past thirty years or so has been an increasing presentation of Christ to the unsaved in terms which amount to a false gospel. This gospel focuses on individuals’ sufferings in life and presents Christ as a remedy for the pain this suffering has caused. The true Gospel, however, focuses on the sufferings of Christ to redeem wicked and sinful men from the consequence of their sin, and not from the pain of having been sinned against.

It is no wonder that in casting such a net of influence countless men and women have embraced the name of Jesus, and yet do not produce any true fruit of repentance. Nor is there any evidence that the meaning, power and consequence of sin is comprehended by these same men and women. The fact that they come into the buildings which bear the name church does not in any way mean that they have come into the true Church. The meaning of the true church is predicated on a life relationship with Christ; not whether you go to church or desire to be seen and understood as a Christian.

An Egyptian can be in Goshen, but an Egyptian cannot become a Jew simply by living in Goshen. Clearly, living in Goshen proved to be an advantage to those Egyptians who chose to live amongst the Jews and put their trust in God on the night of the Passover. If there is any hope at all on this day, then it is in this possibility - that those who are not born again, who dwell in the dominion of the Kingdom of Heaven, by aligning themselves to the Church, will put their trust in Christ, to an effect of being born again.

Before I attempt to answer your question, brother, could I ask if the second post is more easily understood?

This is not nonsense if you would just take the time to understand what is being said. Instead of saying it's nonsense just ask what is meant by what one is saying.
