‘I know your deeds, that you are neither cold nor hot; I wish that you were cold or hot. So because you are lukewarm, and neither hot nor cold, I will spit (vomit) you out of My mouth.
Revelation 3:15-16
Samson flirted with Delilah until the secret of his power was cut off. |
The happy church fears man and not God.
The happy church does not LOVE the Truth, Jesus, they only like select parts, and the rest they ignore because it creeps out their smelly flesh.
The happy church work very hard to please man, and give God lip service if that.
The happy church do not really believe God or His word the Bible.
The happy church loves this world first and foremost.
The happy church has one foot in hell, and is clueless, blind, and led by hirelings, not shepherds.

A
happy church ... one that doesn't make you feel uncomfortable ... one
that will never offend you ... one that will always tell you how much
they love you and how much God loves you.
They
change their church name for branding an image. They change their
church culture for wooing the masses. They assemble cool young bands
that play cool uplifting music and songs. They adapt their message for
itching ears and unknowingly take away the power of redemption.
This is the current trend of many churches.
The
happy church will entertain you. They say they exist to give people
hope. They have fun programs for all your children. All their music and
songs will make you feel special and soothe your guilt-ridden emotions.
And they'll do whatever they can to keep you coming back for more.
This
is the church who is flirting with Delilah. If they stay there too
long, their conscience will be seared, and they will be prime targets
for deception and destruction. They won't be able to shake themselves
free because they won't know that the anointing has departed from them.
Delilah lulled Samson to sleep on her knees and called for a man to shave off the seven locks of his hair. Then she began to humiliate him, and his strength left him.She said, "The Philistines are upon you, Samson."Then he awakened from his sleep and thought, "I will go out as before and shake myself free of them." He did not know that the Lord had left him (Judg. 16:19-20).
Samson
flirted with Delilah until the secret of his power was cut off. Like so
many churches and leaders today, he didn't realize he had lost the
anointing until it was too late. The secret of Samson's power was his
long hair. The secret of the church's power is the mighty Holy Spirit.
Delilah bewitched Samson. Popular voices and popular concepts are bewitching today's church.
"O
foolish Galatians! Who has bewitched you that you should not obey the
truth? ... Are you so foolish? Having begun in the Spirit, are you now
being perfected by the flesh?" (Gal. 3:1, 3).
A Disturbing Dream
A
disturbing dream was given to my wife. She was driving to a church
service amidst great devastation. Roads had been damaged. Cars blown up.
Trees were down. Destruction was all around. As she approached the
front door of where the church was meeting, the doorkeeper directed her
to enter another way.
She
had to walk behind the venue and crawl through a low porch window. Once
inside, my wife saw carpenters working, people smoking and swearing,
coarse conversations and tales of adultery. Farther below, she entered
the room where people gathered. In the dream, I got up to preach,
burning with the fire of holiness, and immediately an assassination
attempt was made on me by an instrument that shot out strange fire.
On
the way home from that meeting, my wife ran into a very weary and
spiritually depleted member of this church who was being affected by the
deadness of this once life-giving church.
Just
as there are evil alliances in the world, so there are in the church.
Both are subtle. Both are demonic. We wrestle not against flesh and
blood. They are seducing spirits promoting doctrines of demons. It's
rampant and worse than you think. Nice people who have been deceived are
engaged and involved in these unholy alliances.
The Titanic Is Sinking, But We're Still Playing
The
Titanic is sinking, but the band keeps playing, and the singers keep
singing. Warnings have been issued of the impending danger and
devastation. The ark is being built, but people are going about their
business with great indifference and unbelief.
When
people are about to drown and die, you don't plan parties. You don't
entertain the masses. You don't need to hear monotone voices telling you
everything is all right. That's cruel. It's like telling a lost sinner
on his deathbed that everything's going to be all right when he's about
to split hell wide open.
It's
telling church goers that homosexuality is all right—that eventually
everyone goes to heaven—that there is no hell. It's dumbing down on the
vital necessity of the baptism of the Holy Spirit and the power of God.
It's remaining silent about controversial issues that affect the church
and laws and legislation being passed to rob us of more of our
liberties. How can we keep silent during such an onslaught of evil on
the church and our nation? Cultural conditions have been changing for a
number of years now, and with it the rules have also changed.
A
demonic culture with unimaginable addictions needs to meet a church and
a people full of power and unapologetic fire. In a time of mass murders
in public gatherings and in the halls of our schools and churches—in a
time of hurricanes, earthquakes, flood and fires and volcanoes on the
brink of deathly eruptions—we don't want to see Noah swinging his hips
from the platform of the ark and telling you how wonderful you are and
how God will make all your dreams come true. It is not a time for
pastors to display their wealth, talk of their multi-million dollar
airplanes and grant people mild cures for their life-threatening
diseases and lustful addictions.
I
don't care how large your church is if it is not a threat to Satan's
kingdom and the encompassing darkness. I don't care how popular a
speaker you are if hell doesn't know you. If all people do is sing your
praises, God hasn't sent you. If you only make people glad, but never
sad or mad, you're probably doing a bad job. It means you're not
impacting the culture of sin. In fact, worse than that, you're
inoculating your own people against the real Jesus, the real gospel, and the real salvation.
If
you're in a happy church where the cross, the blood and hell are never
preached, where there's no real power to redeem from sin, and no
warnings are ever given, you might be flirting with Delilah.
You had better exit now, before your strength is cut off.

Outrage in Germany, and questions for police, after murder, rape of Jewish girl
A
“The only thing that is worse than the murder of a child is the murder of a child by a criminal who should not have been in our country.
“Crimes like these are explosive for our society because they are the bitter proof that this country does not have sufficient control over who is residing within our borders.”

Marching for Terrorism in abomination London? No Problem
The leader of last year's London Al Quds Day rally, Nazim Ali – director of the "Islamic Human Rights Commission", which organizes the annual march – called for the annihilation of Israel.
They also carried banners that said, "We are all Hezbollah," (what a comforting thought for the British). If, however, like the scholar Robert Spencer, one reports on these activities, one is barred from entering England.
The real problem is the contrast in how the slightest criticism of Islam in the UK is perceived by British police, who readily go about arresting and prosecuting people for it. An afternoon of racism is in store for Londoners on Sunday, but as long as the hate is directed against Jews by Muslims, British authorities apparently have no problem with it.
