Why do you think ?

You see even mainline Christian denominational churches, even ? so called " modern ( " that's where it's happening " ) churches, fill in the blank churches ?

God right now is calling his people, the true body of Christ, his CHURCH, out of the whore of Babylon.
You see people not going to church ?

It's not that they left Christ, or that they don't want to go to church... no.

It's that ?

Those so called churches have left Christ, and true biblical teaching.

And ?

They have allowed all kind of things to be taught, and allowed the infiltration of feminism and homosexuality.

God is calling his people, his Church, his Body, the true body of Christ out of Mystery Babylon, the whore of Babylon and out into the wilderness where he, he will feed his flock there.

It's going on as we speak.

And ?

Don't let them use their tried and true guilt ridden control trick of the verse from Heb chapter 10 verse 25.

You know ?
The tried and true sure thing way of getting you in the door every Sunday that they will use.

Do not let them, use that verse ( let us not forsake the gathering of the saints ) to ?

belittle you,
judge you,
make you feel guilty,

It's all a ploy and their way of trying to control you.

Yes, these churches will use that tried and true verse to use you and control you.

Besides ?

Did you noticed ?

It says ?
Let us not forsake the gathering of the saints ?

It means like minded believers all around the world, not just to go to " THEIR GREAT ( specific ) church " as these so called churches ( tares ) puff them selves up to be.
Got to check out their motives.
money ? to get as many people in the door as possible ?

Let us not forsake the gathering of the saints by the writer in that time and day by what this writer wrote that ?
Means ?

It means, Like minded Christians, like minded " BELIEVERS " in a " Jewish culture " who hated the early Church.

The writer is telling them ? beseech them ?
To not ! don't shun or the turn away from fellowshipping with the saints, like minded Christian believers.
To not go back to your old ways of Judaism and Synagogues and turn away from Christ and their faith in Christ.

It does not mean ?
As the churches would say " do not skip church this Sunday, or Sunday School " as they would have you to believe.

Just because ?
They say they preach from God's word ? does not mean ? they truely teach and preach from God's word.
You need to listen to what they actually teach and preach.
Listen to what they say in their daily conversations and life style.

Just because ?

It's " where it's happening " and big crowds, does not mean ?

That God is there.

Just because ?

They say that the holy spirt is there, or that they have wonderful good feely music, that ?

God is there.

The bible tells us, emphatically, to :

I JOHN 4:

1. Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world.
2. Hereby know ye the Spirit of God: Every spirit that confesseth that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is of God:
3. and every spirit that confesseth not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is not of God: and this is that spirit of antichrist, whereof ye have heard that it should come; and even now already is it in the world.

I have boldly done it, but yet ?

Still ? listen to what they preach, teach, and say.

Just because ?

They have a great pastor ?

and that ? he is so educated with a PHD in doctrine, and had all these experiences out in the field ?
Does not mean he was ordained by God or that God is with him.

Yeah, people can get all caught up in his mastery of speaking, preaching, and teaching God's word with , uhhhhs, and ahhhhs, all gibby and fuzzy feelings, but that does not mean God is with him.

Yes, people can get all caught up in all these things....

BUT !

You safe choice ?

Safe bet ?

Know, read, study, the word of God yourself.

Sorry for going off on a long winded tangent.
