In the early 1500's, plus or minus, the Puritans of England, developed a list of grievances against the Church of England, which was also the official state religion and mandatory for all English citizens. Among these grievances, that were spurred on by the Reformation, was the freedom of worship. In response to these grievances, the church changed it's name. The Puritans, not being fooled by the designs of the ruling authorities, sailed away to the New World. Is it safe to say that Great Things arose from this departure?
Our present day churches change their names and skins nearly every day, it seems like. And NOT to the Honor and Glory due to our Lord Jesus Christ. Is it not again time for us to take up the Spirit of the Puritans? And set aside the spirit of religion? How do we know what Great Things Christ has set before this generation if we don't sail away?
We are the Church, are we not?
We are...
Do you want an honest answer because part of the answer involves acknowledging that every war we've declared since 1920 was exclusively about protecting the New World Order Jewish central bankers and ensuring their (mostly) Christian debt slaves remained shackled.
You'll first need to understand that our governments hatred for Russia and Syria is because Russia freed themselves from being the usury debt slaves of Jewish central bankers in 2018 and Syria has no Jewish central bank, hence the false flag deep state chemical attacks.
Remember how we killed Saddam Hussein and Muammar Gaddafi? Yep, those two leaders also kicked their Jewish central banking slave masters out of Iraq and Libya... so we declared war with two more countries, had those legitimate leaders murdered and installed shiny new Jewish central banks.
Did you know that WW2 was declared hours after Germany and Austria kicked their Jewish central bankers out? Can you see the pattern here?
Part of the answer to your question involved being honest about how we've been the Zionist New World Order's military for at least a century. It's our blood and treasure that was spent to enslave the human race.
I never said that the evil one wouldn't follow us. What I did imply is that we remain under their yoke because we haven't sailed away. This may or may not be construed as boarding a boat.
If you don't even know how to interpret what you're saying, how am I expected to?
Sailing away would require a boat, would it not? Same as walking away would require your feet. The Puritans chose the boat and departed. Maybe that is a choice for us or maybe would we could just choose not to participate any longer.
Today, many people will go to church and not even know what they are participating in. Many will go knowing full well what they participate in but dismiss it because they are only concerned with their own souls. Two wrongs do not make a right. One of these groups needs to start caring for the other group too, instead of just their own soul. By teaching them, showing them and weakening the church that is doing them harm. We can only do this outside of the church. The church knows the errors but attendance and collections govern them, this can't be more obvious. They won't reform themselves.
Sometimes I feel that churches are a money making scam. A means of profiteering by the “pastors” and “priests”, “rabbis” and Muslim religious leaders. Only God knows how much they scam off the top.
Thank you. And the heart of this is the "works" based religion. They keep you coming back to do the work that Christ has already finished. God bless you, Hope, and Amen.
As an eleventh generation descendant of the Puritans, I always say they were the original hippies. In today's licentious culture we are encouraged to overlook how progressive and enlightened they were.
Hi Andy, while we're working on your other request can I ask you to be more specific about how to sail away? I've been asking this question for many years in other metaphors, and this year I was told that the best approach for now would be to build an online community of believers that is an organic member of the body of Messiah, which turned out to be c/Christianity. Do you think this community is working on the OP vision, or do you believe in bailing yourself out of it in hopes that your ship will come in? To put it starkly.
Starkly, the current situation at c/Christianity is to protect the spirit of religion and not the Body of Christ. You cannot resolve differences and come together as one, if one side is silenced by the other. That is coercion not bonding.
God can perform His will through us regardless of where we fellowship.
This is the truth in all ways. The Apostles of Christ did not erect gigantic bejewelled cathedrals and the like, they went to the people in their towns and in their homes.
