The Arrogant Apostate Church

The arrogance of the apostate church today:
to proclaim something as truth when the only evidence they have is their own imagination is the new normal.




Fools Walk According to their Own Imagination!

The foolish person uses their own imagination to proclaim what they wish to believe, based on nothing other than their own idle imaginings, nothing else, pompous arrogance rules them, they are in bondage to their own fallen minds.

Proverbs 28:26
"Whoever trusts in his own mind is a fool, but he who walks in wisdom will be delivered."




The Arrogance of Twisting God's Words

It is so interesting that people devise in their minds what they choose to believe and speak it as though it is fact.

Many in the Christian church have decided what they want to believe. They proceed to snatch scripture from its context to cut and paste the words where they want them to make it say what they wish to believe.

Revelation 22:18-19
"I warn everyone who hears the words of the prophecy of this book: if anyone adds to them, God will add to him the plagues described in this book, and if anyone takes away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God will take away his share in the tree of life and in the holy city, which are described in this book."

Proverbs 30:5-6
"Every word of God proves true; he is a shield to those who take refuge in him. Do not add to his words, lest he rebuke you and you be found a liar."

Deuteronomy 12:32
"“Everything that I command you, you shall be careful to do. You shall not add to it or take from it."

2 Peter 1:20-21
"Knowing this first of all, that no prophecy of Scripture comes from someone's own interpretation. For no prophecy was ever produced by the will of man, but men spoke from God as they were carried along by the Holy Spirit."

To negate any part of God's word, or ignore it is to say you do not believe God. God didn't know any better and your way is better than His in your own mind. What incredible arrogance!!!!




Narcissists and Enablers Love Their Gossip

Only an enabler to the narcissist would believe their side of the story without finding out your side. They love their gossip!

The narcissist will take something you have done and blow it up to make it sound far worse than it was. They love their gossip!










God's Sense of Humor

So much foolishness these days I am praying for a sense of humor. Since I can't change much I prefer to laugh at it.

Proverbs 1:25-27 "…25 because you neglected all my counsel and wanted none of my correction, 26, in turn, I will mock your calamity; I will sneer when terror strikes you, 27 when your dread comes like a storm, and your destruction like a whirlwind, when distress and anguish overwhelm you.…"

God laughs at our foolishness the way we laugh at the antics of a kitten or a puppy. He knows how humans can be, it must seem ridiculous to Him.

I recall an employee in a business my husband and I had a few years ago. This employee was caught using our cart that transported products to the kiosk, to pop wheelies around the kiosk during the time he was supposed to be working.

I heard what he was doing on a regular basis and laughed it was funny when it was described to me. Then I fired him, this was not the only infraction but the funniest one.

You see, humans sometimes do very funny things that cost them jobs, relationships and stability. God knows the best for us but we are so full of pride we think we can do anything we want our own way, but it all has a cost.

Are You Born Again?

YES! I have actually asked Christians if they were born again and they tell me which church they attend. I would have to say, "I didn't ask you that." They look at me dumbfounded as though they didn't know what I was talking about. Then I would give them the gospel message.

There are so many people who think they are on their way to heaven because they attend a church. As though attendance is the way to heaven.

When someone tells you they are a Christian, always ask, 'Are you born again?' Many are so lost, so confused & totally deceived!
