Amos 6:1 Woe to those who are at ease in Zion

~ Randy Harris ~ Leave a comment

Complacency is the enemy of the very progress that is needed in the Church today.

“The quest of Jesus Christ on the earth is greatly crippled by wrong notions of the sovereignty of God. God is sovereign, but in His sovereignty, He has limited Himself,” per Pastor Jack Hayford. You see many Christians believe, whether consciously or unconsciously, that God is in control of everything and will do what He wants, regardless of our involvement.  God works on earth through people. He needs our cooperation.

The Church of today loves it’s comforts. We like the songs of praise for past victories and even future ones.  Nothing wrong with that, but we need to understand that we as the body of Christ need to continue the good fight of faith. We live in the most decadent, immoral, narcissistic and compromising period in church history. The world has heard more sermons and seen more church services than ever before. Yet Apostacy is rampart in the world. The purpose of the Church is “to the intent that now the manifold wisdom of God might be made known by the church to the principalities and powers in the heavenly places Ephesians 3:10″. We must stand tall and fight as if our very lives and our families lives depend upon the outcome of our activities. It does! Our nation is on the brink of disaster and most of the church still sings songs of victory without any battle scars. We need warriors for Christ. We must earnestly contend for the true faith. We must learn spiritual warfare and stand for what is right, not just what is almost right. 

We are running out of time. What Jesus has called you to do, do it quickly!

A final word for 2024, Don’t look to the prophets for what is going to happen in 2024, but go to God and make something happen.

I want to die with my hand around the sword (which is the Word of God). Eph. 6:17

Contending for the Faith Part 4

~ Randy Harris ~ Leave a comment

I have been a Bible student for over 45 years, many of those if not all have been in teaching the Word of God. Over the years I have seen different fads and movements of God proclaimed as the next greatest. Thankfully cooler heads prevailed and we got back to what works best, and that is humility before God and a sincere desire to study and obey the Word.

I have two concerns that I may later elaborate on but one is the new idea that we rely so heavily on the Prophetic. I believe in the Word of God, and every “word” from God must line up with His Word. If it doesn’t it’s false, and if it doesn’t come true it’s false. Case closed. That’s the way it is.

We have become so lazy in this world with all the instant information, that we don’t or won’t seek out the answer in the Bible. We had rather take a quick fix from a “Prophet.” Nothing says Christian more than a dog eared Bible that is about to fall apart.

Final word of warning. Get in a Church or fellowship. Where the whole Bible is taught. It is important that each follower reads and knows the Word of God. Ask questions and contend for the faith! Rh

2 Timothy 3:16-17. All Scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reroof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness, that the man or woman of God may be complete, thoroughly equipped for every good work.

Moral or Political

~ Randy Harris ~ Leave a comment

My thesis is simple, every issue facing this nation is a moral one not a political one. But, one would say what about the conflict going on now with Russia and Ukraine? Even that is moral. Political expediency has allowed this conflict to get to this stage. If America were a moral nation, then Biden would never have been elected with fraudulent votes. There is proof positive that 2020 was stolen, there is way too much evidence to discount this view.

Who speaks on moral issues, the Pastors and ultimately the church does. Where was and is the Church of today? Are they doing the due diligence required to have a voice, to call out, or make plain a vision to restore Biblical values in our country? Mostly a resounding no. We need watchmen on the wall to stand and declare morality in our nation. Speaking out against evil and greed and immorality. LGBTQ and other gender issues including CRT are issues of the day for the Church to speak on not sissified political compromisers that are devoid of moral and common sense.

Unfortunately the Church is ignorant of what they can and can not do under the law and because of that fear runs rampant among the Clergy. So they sit in silence and lift their hands to Jesus in worship, all the while His desire for them is to over turn the money changers table. Where is the Black Robe Regiment of Revolutionary days?

Apparently drinking soy milk and preparing feel good sermons, not a Word from God!

The Militant Church

~ Randy Harris ~ Leave a comment

Who is to blame for the cultural and moral decay in America today?  Many blame feckless and egotistical politicians who have become a ruling aristocratic body of legislators.  True, but who has elected these tone deaf leaders? To me the slouching toward Gomorrah, to borrow a phrase, is the fault of the church and Pastors who failed their parishioners in not preaching and teaching the truth!  There is only one truth and that is found in Jesus Christ.  John 17:17 says “Sanctify them by Your truth.  Your Word is truth.”  In John 1:1 Jesus is portrayed as the Word of God.  Moral and ethical truth belongs in and through Jesus Christ. So with that in mind I precede.

The true Church must become a militant body of believers, not in physicality, but in spirituality.  Praying militantly in warfare prayer must become an active part of our daily routine.  In depth Biblical Study of scriptures, as well as intense discipleship programs are a must.  Get off the milk and get into the meat of the Word.  Get off TV preachers and prophets and get into a really good Church to fellowship with others and get plugged into groups and activities that feed your spirit.  

Get away from hearing a word from a prophet and get into the Bible.  Prophets live in the flesh, so to speak, and can be wrong as we have seen from many prophecies before the election.  God spoke to me and told me “ Son don’t look to prophets, but to Me”.  The prophetic ministry can be misused.  

Nevertheless, the main point is to be what the Word tells us to be, do what the Word tells us to do, and have what the Word tells us we can have. Outside of that realm I want nothing.  I will be content with that alone.  

Acts 5:29 We must obey God rather than man.

Let God arise and let His enemies be scattered.
