Attention Pastors:
Acts 1:8 New King James Version (NKJV)
"But you shall receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you; and you shall be witnesses to Me in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the end of the earth.""Or how can you say to your brother, ‘Brother, let me remove the speck that is in your eye,’ when you yourself do not see the plank that is in your own eye? Hypocrite! First remove the plank from your own eye, and then you will see clearly to remove the speck that is in your brother’s eye." (Luke 6:42 NKJV)
Isn't it funny how some extremist miss the point? The IMPERFECT Christian was thinking about how some people, especial the extremist (cult) preachers call other people out, yet they themselves can't see the beam in their own eye. What's worse than not seeing the beam in your own eye? Trying to push your brothers beam further into his eye, and ending up losing a brother, or losing yourself.
Worthless preachers, and politicians don't like being out of their comfort zones much. Meaning, a useless pastor is right at home in a church. He avoids taking LOVE to the street, but he'll go preach his (so called) authority in God to the street. A useless politician (like the so called preacher in his church, that should be recognized as Gods' house) is right at home in his/her government office.
The preacher is supposed to reach out to supply his people with the Good News, and help Gods' people. Instead today's iGeneration preacher uses the internet, or the building that he hides in to slander, and hinder Gods' people. The politician is supposed to represent, and invest in his/her people. Instead that politician relishes in the ruin of the other party and intimidates his/her own while doing so. Get on board (let us brainwash you), or be buried in the ruin!
Last time I heard, it was a commandment not to bear false witness against your brother. Isn't that a part of your instruction as a Christian, isn't that a COMMANDMENT if you are a Christian church, or did that change somewhere?
Under-shepherds and politicians are not concerned with their people anymore. They are not concerned with their service anymore. They are all about power in THEIR own name. The preacher masks the contradiction by SAYING it's power in Gods' name, but look and see if God's getting the glory or if love is being given, even if it's a tough love. Is the politician doing the same? Of course, only he/she is hiding behind the word "constitution!" The imperfect Christian dares to say that more than half of the people that stand so strongly over that parchment cannot even tell you what it is, what it says beyond, "We the people," or what it stands for. What would Jesus say about the "CONStitution?" Or better yet, what would He say about the "free" cons in the government offices hiding behind it?
Open your minds, carefully... as to not let your brains fall out, but open your minds. Get it right in self (at home), then take it to the street, then take it to the Oval Office and any other place you choose. Just make sure PREACHER/political LEADER that the beam in your own eye is clear first. Until next time.
Peace, Blessings, & Joy... That real PB&J
