THE CHURCH IN DISSIMULATION
While mourning over the mystery of lawless that is swiping many off their feet and seeing that no one takes to heart what the future holds for the Church. What will become of Zion when her bridegroom comes suddenly?
In a night vision, I saw Zion running her course administratively, she's corporately arrayed, and intricately styled, her corporate environment is impressive, no flaw was noticeable. The narratives wasn't as clear but the message was perfectly spelt; when an aged man invited me into Zion's most sacred place, the lofty office I had long to see and the priest who bear rule in her Holy place. What manner of splendour and glory would this be? I quietly wondered. I entered into Zion's secret place, I went into her place of strength and into her chamber of authority, alas! The glory has departed from Israel! Darkness has swallowed up her radiance, her beauty is slain by marauders, the slumbering spirit has drown her sons. I saw Zion in shambles, her men of strength are fast asleep, her legislators are without a clue. Her workforce has defy her most holy place, her priest is no where to be found.
What height of deception is this? Zion is a complete shadow of what she looks on the outside. Her true strength is lost, Ichabod; the glory is gone! by whom shall Jacob arise?
It is sad, the spiritual state of the church is unknown to many, who will believe our report? The knowledge of the church has so much increased but her understanding diminished... By whom shall Jacob arise?
“...I know thy works, that thou art neither cold nor hot: I would thou wert cold or hot. So then because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spue thee out of my mouth. Because thou sayest, I am rich, and increased with goods, and have need of nothing; and knowest not that thou art wretched, and miserable, and poor, and blind, and naked: I counsel thee to buy of me gold tried in the fire, that thou mayest be rich; and white raiment, that thou mayest be clothed, and [that] the shame of thy nakedness do not appear; and anoint thine eyes with eyesalve, that thou mayest see. As many as I love, I rebuke and chasten: be zealous therefore, and repent. Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me. To him that overcometh will I grant to sit with me in my throne, even as I also overcame, and am set down with my Father in his throne."—Rev. 3:14-21
