DAY FOUR FROM LAKE MARY.....By Rev. Charles J. Paul


Day four in Lake Mary
Classes for today include.
1- Meet the Puritans.
2- A simple way to pray.

Joe and I will also be taking some time today to reflect on what has been put before us.

Last nights service at St Andrews Chapel left us speechless. Every Pastor who was present last night was brought face to face with the Prophet Amos. In Amos 8 we saw God’s Holy Wrath being poured out among a people who turned a deaf ear to the Truth of God’s Word.

And God brought a FAMINE IN THE LAND. But this Famine was not one of being without physical food. This FAMINE was worse it was a FAMINE were God closes heaven. And no longer speaks to His people. The result is horrible they are like the walking dead as a result.

We also saw how we are living in the midst of the same FAMINE IN OUR LAND. We live in a country were the Word of God is preached by faithful men. In pulpits, on TV, on Radio, we have Christian publishing houses unlike other countries can even dream of.

But what have we done?
We in this country have heaped up teachers that will tickle our ears. Tell us what we want to hear. False teacher are rising higher than even in the days of Amos. They are getting so big they even have to hold there services in old basket ball arenas.

Today is the day. We must hear God’s command to turn back to the Truth. For we can see with out any doubt. Even in the midst of our great country of plenty where pastors will tell you that the church is on the rise. That she has never been stronger.

No,
what they are showing us is her outside make believe facade. But when we take her true spiritual temperature we see that the church today in America is in the midst of a DEADLY FAMINE IN HER LAND.

WHAT CAN WE DO?
The church must REPENT of her worldly ways. Fall on her face before a Holy God. Pastor’s must begin to Study and pray a labor in the BOOK. So that they can feed there flocks a pure diet of the whole counsel of God.
Where the pulpit goes. So goes that Church.
MAY GOD HAVE MERCY ON US.
