THE PROCESSED CHURCH- AND ITS ORGANIC ALTERNATIVE. « A Call To The Remnant

The good falling away isn’t about folks now not “going to church,” for the reason that idea of attending “church” is overseas to the Scriptures. Real believers are the Church. The true falling away is a departure from fact itself. A constructing could also be full of folks, however who’re they spiritually? Are they radical followers of Jesus with deep relationships with Him, or compromisers who embrace Christ however reject the cross?

These of us who’ve left non secular traditions—I personally am a former Catholic—are well-acquainted with the Sunday-only Christian who checks a field by attending a service, maybe even midweek gatherings, males’s BBQ nights, or ladies’s retreats. I name this the processed church. Simply as processed meals is altered from its unique state for comfort—loaded with sugars, unhealthy fat, preservatives, and missing vitamins—the spiritually processed church has additionally been altered for comfort.

What are the religious results of this processed church? Contemplate the “added sugar”: elaborate levels, entertainment-driven worship bands, and smoke machines designed to hype folks up, compensating for the absence of God’s real presence. Many nominal believers have by no means actually encountered God’s genuine presence and subsequently can not discern the distinction.

Consider “unhealthy fat and low vitamins”: the Phrase of God diluted, compromised, and stripped of its true dietary worth. These “fat” are sermons centered solely on worldly success, prosperity teachings, and self-enrichment schemes, creating spiritually unhealthy Christians who should regularly depend on shallow injections of emotional hype to remain spiritually “alive.” The church system has taught its followers dependency on itself somewhat than full reliance on Jesus.

What’s the answer? Revolution—a complete abandonment of this processed non secular system in favor of one thing pure, uncooked, natural, and unaltered by worldly components. With out such radical change, the present system will collapse beneath the load of worldliness and self-centered doctrines disguised as salvation.

There’s a rising starvation, particularly amongst youthful generations raised inside spiritually unhealthy environments, for authenticity, radical dedication, and an uncompromising devotion to Christ Himself. They want a church wholly dedicated to Jesus, characterised by quiet reverence and real holiness. A neighborhood the place believers edify each other in keeping with Scripture, the place prophecy, exhortation, knowledge, tongues, and interpretations are practiced. A fellowship with out hierarchical management, led as an alternative by humble elders and deacons who serve selflessly, needing no recognition or monetary reward. A spot that equips believers to dwell radically, to embrace struggling for Christ, proudly bearing the cross and the scars upon their backs as marks of their love, devotion and authenticity.

That is the natural Church—unprocessed by the world, radically dedicated to Jesus Christ and His Kingdom.
