I want to write something that will make me very unpopular. I believe that we (among the revival crowd) have a false sense that we are the repairers of the wall, when in fact many are on the verge of being handed over to the greater darkness and reprobation.
I wonder how many have come here, listened to these messages, listened to Ravenhill, Wilkerson, Washer, Tozer, etc and haven't even made an effort to scale down their lifestyles so they could feed the poor or support missions, I wonder how many continue in willful sin through unbelief although their ears have heard that Christ came to purchase for himself a free and spotless bride. Brother I wonder how many here on the forum spend more time praying then watching TV. I wonder how many, as one dear brother wrote recently, are moved from their beds by the Spirit at night into a closet or bathroom to weep before God.
How long can we waver between two opinions?
If entertainment is God then serve entertainment.
If the comfort of your flesh is God then serve the comfort of your flesh.
If talking about revival is God then continue talking about the thing that you have no intention on ever paying the price for anyway.
If the American dream is God then continue to serve the American dream.
If meaningless church activities are God then continue on in them
If self preservation is God then continue to save your life, when in fact you are losing it.
If unrighteous mammon is God then continue to serve and take comfort in unrighteous mammon
But if the Lord, He is God, then turn to Him with all of your heart today. Whoever tries to save their life will lose it, but whoever loses their life for the sake of Christ will find it!
In Him - Jim
