The life we are called to live, is a live identified with the cross of Jesus Christ. Sadly today we see men of God who are not prepared to live what they are trying to preach. This, my dear friends, is what we call religion, simply trying to follow a set of rules and regulations. Paul proclaimed “I have not preached what I don’t live and what Christ has accomplished in and through me” (Romans 15:18). That was his testimony and guideline.
If you want to carry the pure doctrine of Christ then there will be a price to pay and that price will be your very life. It is why the Apostle Paul could write with boldness and proclaim that it was Christ’s death in him that was bringing spiritual life to the church and my dear friends, it cannot be any other way today.
God will continue to raise men and women who will be voices crying in the wilderness. Listen for those voices – do not be satisfied with the status quo of religion. The Lord has so much more in store for us. We are living in probably the most exciting days of church history.
We are about to experience the latter and the former rain being poured out together as the prophet Joel spoke about – the outpouring of the Spirit will be upon those who are ready and willing to pay the price to carry this glorious gospel and once again to be voices calling out in the wilderness. Where is the pure gospel of Christ being lived and preached? Where is the true Church of Jesus? We’re not looking for a church club, we’re looking for His true Church where the lives of men and woman are on the altar.
