Some of us have so conditioned our minds nd thoughts and imaginations to side with the world against the church!
We are Christians and claim we are for Christ but that is the beginning and the end of our Christianity. We don’t tell anybody about the Lord, we don’t even invite

people to church as we only attend church once in a while ourselves. We find church activities boring and somehow...well...truth be told, we don’t feel at home in the church!
When we attend we suffer through the whole “religious” thing. We are free spirits! Yes! We are not some

gullible sheepies that some tyrannical Man of God can control! We are Felakinds and we quote him freely to express our disdain for the hypocrisy of religion and foolishness of those whose mind seemed to have been taken over by religious Lords! Those we call the Zombies! We write

Talk, think and act against such obvious manipulations!
When one Mr. Frozenbrain came out with a “sensible criticism” against the church and tithing, we remembered our google and bible and started combining the two in search of tithing and the church
We never did this to know the

Word more or teach it to others!
Our own interest in the word was to engage it to disprove academically and support those who were exposing the leeches!
Many of us don’t pay tithe and we took it upon ourselves to educate those who pay on why they shouldn’t!
Many of us started

criticizing pastors whose churches we have never been to or whose assignments we have no knowledge about!
We search the Internet for the wrong things Pastors are doing while closing our eyes to all the good things! Some of us just open our mouths and heap hot coals of fire on our

Own heads by choosing to speak even when it was wise to keep quiet!
You will not obey the Lord, yet, you will not leave those who are trying to obey the Lord do so in peace!
You were entrusted with a mandate to make disciple of nations
You have refused to do as the Lord demanded!

You live your life just to please yourself and do “good”!
Yet you are counting yourself among the church!
Remember the servant that buried his talent?
That was you!
He thought he was safe because he belonged to the master but his actions and motivations were against the master!

Remember his fate?
The one talent he had was taken from him and he was kicked out of the Kingdom!
A man once took it upon himself to stop the church, he encountered Christ on the road to Damascus!
Jesus said “Saul, Saul, why are you persecuting me? Why are you hurting yourself?!?

Many of us are kicking against the pricks
We hurt ourselves out of our foolishness
We know not, yet we assume we are wise
We speak when we ought to be silent
We are the cause of the storm in our own realities
Like Jonah, we are not moving forward because we walk in disobedience

I had a friend like you!
He died of a terrible ailment recently,
he died because he couldn’t discern the body of Christ!
He heaped damnation upon himself by the words of his mouth
He assumed the church was toothless!
Just like Herod
Just like BarJesus
Just like Judas and Saul

Just like Ananias and Saphira
When you appoint yourself as the chief critic of the church while you refuse to do the bidding of the gospel
You become a distraction and a distractor
You wear a judge’s wig at your own peril, because with the same measure with which you judge you

shall also be judged!
It is true that there are many who abuse the gospel of Christ and His church
It was so even in the early church!
The Gnostics, Nicolaitans and many other heretics took to the bastardization of the gospel!
Apostle Paul and St. John wrote about these dogs!

Peter also mentioned them!
Even our Lord Jesus in the book of Revelations mentioned them
It is therefore foolish to set yourself up as the judge of “good and upright” pastors when you have no idea what being a pastor is like.
If you don’t like a pastor, don’t listen to him or

Follow his teaching
Read your Bible and live for Christ
Mind your business!
Religion has always been a very personal thing
Peter once asked the Lord Jesus concerning John and John’s fate in the gospel
Jesus said “What is your business in John’s affair? You follow me!”
Apostle

Paul later wrote these words
“who are you to judge another man’s servant? To his own master he rises or falls”
Why did Apostle Paul day this?
He knew that the church is not powerless and Christ is positioning men and women strategically in places to do his bidding!
Only a fool

Will assume he or she had to help sanitize the church!
The Jesus we saw in the gospel was more than capable of cleansing the temple with a whip and the Jesus that revealed himself in the book of Revelations was more than capable of dispensing judgement to His own body!
Be wise!!!
