When the church gets right, the sinners will come

God needs leaders, teachers and preachers today who will have the courage and backbone to continue being faithful and fervent to proclaim a Holy God by the sweat power of the Holy Spirit, living His Word by the protection of a Holy life. The Lord is coming after “a glorious church, not having spot or wrinkle, or any such thing; but that it should be holy and without blemish” (Ephesians 5:27, KJV).
Today, there are many people coming before Almighty God. Congregants will give big offering, anything. They will work their finger to the bone; do this, that, whatever. They will wept before Him and ask for mercy. They love Him but enjoy pleasure. They want blessing. These folks aren’t sincere.
They will do anything, but break. Yes, these people hear the Word of God. “But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves” (James 1:22, KJV). Faith acts. To believe is to do! If we do not put the Word into practice, it is to no avail.
Who, may I ask, wants that?
