THE BODY OF CHRIST
There is such a grieving in my Spirit, that I feel a really urgent
leading to share with all of you. This is regarding what is happening in
the Body of Christ. And I know that none of us want to be the ones that
is spoken of in Scripture:
Mt 7:21-23, "Not every one that saith unto me,
Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth
the will of my Father which is in heaven. Many will say to me in that
day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in they name? and in thy name
have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works? And
then will I profess unto them, I never knew you; depart from me, ye that
work iniquity."
Now, we all know that all WILL come to be in Father's Kingdom. And
actually, are in that Kingdom. But, there is so much that hinders many
from coming into the realization of WHERE they actually are, and WHO
they actually are. And much of this HINDRANCE, is so painful to US that
feel the other members, OR SHOULD BE FEELING the other members.
ROM 12:5, "So we, being many, are one body in
Christ, AND EVERY ONE MEMBERS ONE OF ANOTHER."
Can you see what this is saying? We are ALL ONE BODY! No matter where we
live, what country we live in, no matter of age, color, creed, WE ARE
ONE BODY!! CHRIST'S BODY.
1Cor 12:12, 26, "For as the body is one, and
hath many members, and ALL THE MEMBERS OF THAT ONE BODY, whether
we be Jews or Gentiles, whether we be bond or free; and have ALL BEEN
MADE TO DRINK INTO ONE SPIRIT."
And SO IMPORTANT:
1Cor 12:26, " AND WHETHER ONE MEMBER SUFFER,
ALL THE MEMBERS SUFFER WITH IT..."
Can we or DO WE see what these Words are saying? EVEN reading these
Words with the natural mind, it is CLEAR what is being said here. IF YOU
are suffering, WE ALL in the Body of Christ, SHOULD BE FEELING THAT
SUFFERING!!! And IF we aren't feeling the suffering, then we need to
examine ourselves. Are we allowing that DISCERNMENT that Father placed
in us, to work? How can we so proudly announce, "I am in the Body of
Christ", and not care or at least discern when there is suffering going
on around us? Now, I'm not talking about sickness, disorders in the
physical body, or financial suffering. (although much of this is ignored
by MANY in the Body of Christ.) But, I'm speaking of something else.
There are those who GIVE their time, effort, physical tax of their
bodies, the loss of sleep and THE MANY HOURS SPENT WITH FATHER, TO GIVE
WHAT FATHER IS SAYING TODAY, to many of us. And these folks have helped
CHANGE MANY LIVES or views that lead to that changing; and yet, is there
any DISCERNING of the financial needs of these faithful ones? Not a lot
!! I would even go so far, as to say, IF you are entertaining any idea
of going into preaching or teaching for the financial gain, FORGET
IT!! Folks will email these people and tell how much their words
have helped them, or how much freedom those words have helped them
receive; but, do they ever sent any kind of financial support? No, they
tithe to the very church that got them into such bondage to begin with!!
But, BELIEVE me, these folks ARE NOT DEPENDING on the Body for their
needs, their faith is in Father, knowing that IF our dependence was in
the people, we'd starve; or not have the ink we use, or the paper, the
postage, and MOST IMPORTANT, we would not be able to get out the Word,
the PRESENT DAY TRUTH that is coming forth. Let me ask a question; Do
you eat at McDonald's and go to Red Lobster to pay for the food that was
served to you? I don't think so. But, I'm not talking about this either.
NOW, IF there are those of you, who right now are thinking, oh, she's
begging for money: let me tell you, YOU are one who IS NOT using the
discernment that Father gave you! I ASK FOR ANYTHING FROM ANYONE, my
FATHER supports my needs.
But, when I said that my Spirit is GRIEVING for the Body of Christ, this
is JUST ONE AREA that is causing this grief.
I am just going to allow to come forth, what I feel Father wants His
Body to hear. There is another area that is causing grief. FIGHTING!!
We ARE a blessed people. Do you know how many billions of people that
have not been blessed to hear this WORD OF LIFE, that we are receiving
from Father? I mean STRAIGHT FROM HIS PRECIOUS LIPS? Oh there are so
many. And yet, there are those, who have been blessed with this Word,
this LIFE of FATHER, and have taught it for 20, 30, 50 years and are
preaching and teaching, " depend on Father, HE IS IN CONTROL of all
things", and yet, they are declaring WAR on their brethren, because of
difference of opinion or understanding of Father's Word!! It's sad, it's
REALLY SAD! How can we say that FATHER IS ALL IN ALL and yet, call for
separation of the Body, because of difference in teaching?
Does not Father allow or not allow all things to happen? ( for HIS
reason), Is He so weak that He needs us to be Generals in a WAR on and
against our brothers and sisters? I don't think so. They teach and
preach about how the "gentiles" think and act; they preach about how we
are to LOVE the "heathen", how we are to treat each other as Father
would have us to, and yet, THEY DECLARE WAR on their brethren!
Whether or not, we agree with WHAT a brother or sister is teaching, or
who they are fellowshipping with, IT DOES NOT MEAN THAT WE SHOULD
DECLARE WAR ON EACH OTHER. We can't say, "there are different levels of
understanding to the Written Word", and yet, declare War, if others that
are not where we might THINK WE ARE AT, or others who are fellowshipping
with some that we might feel they shouldn't be fellowshipping with, and
THINK that we are doing Father's Will by declaing war on those brethren!
One doesn't bounce back and forth to the realms of understanding of the
Word, as it pleases the needs we need, to dispute a brother or sister.
Have they not thought, "Father has allowed this teaching "in err", for a
reason"? Or maybe Father led one to fellowship with some, that just
MAYBE , Father sent there for a reason; or just MAYBE, THAT GROUP might
teach us something that we NEED TO KNOW!! IF our faith is in FATHER, why
should we fear being in ANY FELLOWSHIP?
I remember when the Jimmy Swaggart and Jim and Tammy Faye Baker, "thing"
exploded. I ask Father, "What is happening?". You know what Father spoke
to me?
He said, "IT IS I THAT IS DOING THESE THINGS!!"
He wanted His people to know:
