JUDGMENT IN THE HOUSE OF GOD

AUTHOR’S NOTE:  HAVE YOU THOUGHT ABOUT THE SPIRITUAL CONDITION AMERICA IS IN AND WHY IT IS IN SUCH A CONDITION?  MY SPIRIT DOES GRIEVE FOR OUR NATION AND LIKE MANY WALL WATCHERS WE HAVE PUT OUT ” WARNINGS ” OVER THE YEARS.  YET, THE CHURCH OF GOD HAS STILL REMAINED IN HER SLUMBER.

 

Kadosh Adonai (Hebrew) Elisheva Shomron (w/ lyrics)

AUTHOR’S NOTE CONTINUED:  ON JULY 5, 2015 THE LORD DEALT WITH MY HEART AGAIN ON THE CONDITION OF AMERICA AND I WAS GIVEN SCRIPTURE TO SHARE WITH “THE HOUSE OF GOD ON JUDGMENT!”

Luke Chapter 23   CRYING AND LAMENTATIONS

MESSAGE GIVEN TO ME WAS “JUDGMENT IN THE HOUSE OF GOD” JUST AS IT WAS IN THE HOUSE OF ISRAEL.

SPECIFIC VERSES LUKE 23:27-32  HIGHLIGHTED WORDS ARE RHEMA WORD GIVEN TO ME!

²⁷ And there followed him a great company of people, and of women, which also bewailed and lamented him.

²⁸ But Jesus turning unto them said, Daughters of Jerusalem, weep not for me, but weep for yourselves, and for your children.

²⁹ For, behold, the days are coming, in the which they shall say, Blessed are the barren, and the wombs that never bare, and the paps which never gave suck.

³⁰ Then shall they begin to say to the mountains, Fall on us; and to the hills, Cover us.

³¹ For if they do these things in a green tree, what shall be done in the dry? (EZK. 20:47 GREEN AND DRY TREE ; 21:3-4 DRAWN SWORD FROM SHEATH-RIGHTEOUS AND WICKED)

CONTEXT OF LUKE 23:27-31 CLEARLY IS THE JUDGMENT COMING UPON ISRAEL; JUDGMENT ELSEWHERE IN LUKE IS REFERRED TO AS FIRE.

Luke 3:9 And even now the ax is laid to the root of the trees. Therefore every tree which does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire.”

Luke 3:17 His winnowing fan is in His hand, and He will thoroughly clean out His threshing floor, and gather the wheat into His barn; but the chaff He will burn with unquenchable fire.”

Luke 12:49 “I came to send fire on the earth, and how I wish it were already kindled!

Luke 17:29 but on the day that Lot went out of Sodom it rained fire and brimstone from heaven and destroyed them all.

EZEKIEL 20:47 CONSIDER WHAT CHARLES SPURGEON SAID 

Charles Spurgeon said, “Decayed churches can most certainly be revived by the preaching of the Word, accompanied by the coming of the heavenly breath from the four winds.” [from The Metropolitan Tabernacle Pulpit, vol. 10, page 426; quoted in Warren Wiersbe’s commentary on Ezekiel, page 197]

EZEKIEL 21:3-4    CONSIDER CHARLES SPURGEON AGAIN……BELOW IN SERMON NO.165

³ And say to the land of Israel, Thus saith the Lord; Behold, I am against thee, and will draw forth my sword out of his sheath, and will cut off from thee the righteous and the wicked.

⁴ Seeing then that I will cut off from thee the righteous and the wicked, therefore shall my sword go forth out of his sheath against all flesh from the south to the north:

CHARLES SPURGEON  A Sermon  

(No. 165)

Delivered on Sabbath Morning, November 29, 1857, by the REV. C. H. Spurgeon at the Music Hall, Royal Surrey Gardens.

SNIPPET:  READ MORE (EMPHASIS MINE)

The text is a solemn one—”He heard the sound of the trumpet, and took not warning: his blood shall be upon him.” The first head is this—the warning was all that could be desired—“he heard the sound of the trumpet.” Secondly, the excuses for not attending to the startling warning are all of them both frivolous and wicked: and therefore, in the third place, the consequences of inattention must be terrible, because man’s blood must then be on his own head.

SO IT SHALL BE IN THE HOUSE OF CHRIST (MY HEART IS SO HEAVY!)

1 PETER 4:17 GIVEN TO ME “WARNING” JUDGMENT “MUST” BEGIN IN THE HOUSE OF GOD!!!

¹⁷ For the time is come that judgment must begin at the house of God: and if it first begin at us, what shall the end be of them that obey not the gospel of God?  MORE VERSES ON JUDGMENT

JAMES 12:6  King James Bible
For whom the Lord loveth he chasteneth, and scourgeth every son whom he receiveth.

Lamentations 3:39
Why should the living complain when punished for their sins?

Revelation 3:19
Those whom I love I rebuke and discipline. So be earnest and repent.

AUTHOR’S NOTE CONTINUED:  THE HOUSE OF GOD IS AS A VALLEY OF DRY BONES!  THE SHEEP ARE SCATTERED TO THE FOUR WINDS LONGING FOR THE SPIRIT OF TRUTH!  THE ASSIGNMENTS GIVEN TO APPOINTED MEN OF GOD HAVE ABANDONED THEIR POST, “THE PULPIT!”  THEY HAVE GONE THE WAYWARD SIDE AND CHASE FANCIFUL DREAMS OF PROSPERITY AND FEEL GOOD GOSPEL.   HOW MANY GENERATIONS HAVE WE LOST BECAUSE THE POSTS OF PREACHERS AND DISCIPLES HAVE GONE TO SLEEP OR ALL TOGETHER HAVE JUST GIVEN UP TO FIGHT THE GOOD FIGHT?

PETER EXHORTS THE ELDERS OF THE CHURCH TO FEED THE FLOCK THAT ARE AMONG YOU AND TAKING OVERSIGHT THERE OF, WILLINGLY AND A READY MIND.  ELDERS OF THE CHURCH ARE TO BE EXAMPLES TO THE FLOCK.  IT BREAKS MY HEART TO WITTINESS THE AUDACITY AND CONTEMPT AND DOWN RIGHT BLASPHEMY IN SOME CASES OF THE ASSIGNED SHEPHERDS OF CHURCHES.  1 PETER 5 COVERS THESE URGENT WORDS FOR SAID ELDERS/SHEPHERDS OF THE CHURCH AND CHARLES SPURGEON COVERED A MULTITUDE ON THE SUBJECT.

CONSIDER CHARLES SPURGEON SERMON NO. 428 ON “NATURE OF SIN”

….nature of sin. This will be clear if you think for a moment that anything which is a transgression of God’s command is sin, and if there were no other command; the one in our Text being broken would involve us in iniquity. But it is a precept earnestly repeated by our Savior many times, it is one which the Apostles have reiterated again and again, and one which cannot be neglected without involving transgression. Besides, the very essence of anxious care is the imagining that we are wiser than God, and the thrusting of ourselves into His place, to do for Him that which we dream He either cannot or will not do! We attempt to think of that which we fancy He will forget; or we labor to take upon ourselves that burden which He either is not able or willing to carry for us. Now, this impertinence, this presumption, what if I say, this audacity, has in it the very nature of sin, to attempt to know better than God, to snatch from His hands the helm by which He guides affairs, to attempt to correct His charts, to re-map His Providence! This, indeed, is such impertinence, that as the guardian Scripture pushes back the intruder; it demands of him, “Are you also one of the King’s Counsel? What are you doing here? He took no counsel with you when He made the heavens and the earth, and balanced the clouds, and stretched out the skies like a tent to dwell in, how dare you come here and offer advice to Perfect Wisdom, and aid to Omnipotent Strength?” There is in anxious care the very nature of sin!

1 PETER 5:1-11 (ALSO: EZEKIEL 34:4)

¹ The elders which are among you I exhort, who am also an elder, and a witness of the sufferings of Christ, and also a partaker of the glory that shall be revealed:

² Feed the flock of God which is among you, taking the oversight thereof, not by constraint, but willingly; not for filthy lucre, but of a ready mind;

³ Neither as being lords over God’s heritage, but being ensamples to the flock.

⁴ And when the chief Shepherd shall appear, ye shall receive a crown of glory that fadeth not away.

⁵ Likewise, ye younger, submit yourselves unto the elder. Yea, all of you be subject one to another, and be clothed with humility: for God resisteth the proud, and giveth grace to the humble.

⁶ Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, that he may exalt you in due time:

⁷ Casting all your care upon him; for he careth for you.

⁸ Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour:

⁹ Whom resist stedfast in the faith, knowing that the same afflictions are accomplished in your brethren that are in the world.

¹⁰ But the God of all grace, who hath called us unto his eternal glory by Christ Jesus, after that ye have suffered a while, make you perfect, stablish, strengthen, settle you.

¹¹ To him be glory and dominion for ever and ever. Amen.
