Every believer is my brother or sister in Christ, more precisely my spiritual siblings, but know that by your love (Agape) toward me, you are to influence and provoke me to good works and live in righteousness toward all. Heb 10:24-25 (AMP) And let us consider and give attentive, continuous care to watching over one another, studying how we may stir up (stimulate and incite) to love and helpful deeds and noble activities,
You should know it’s important to gather with other believers so that love (Agape) is stimulated in us, which assists in promoting Christ’s compassionate attention to each other’s situations of faith. 25 Not forsaking or neglecting to assemble together [as believers], as is the habit of some people, but admonishing (warning, urging, and encouraging) one another, and all the more faithfully as you see the day approaching.
Unfortunately, agape love, warnings, urgings, and encouragements toward one another, are not part of today’s preparation for the day of our Savior’s return. Instead, ministerial unions have risen by precepts and statutes relevant to the dynamics amid expressions of praise and self.
Phil 1:9-11 And this I pray, that your love may abound yet more and more in knowledge and in all judgment; 10 That ye may approve things that are excellent; that ye may be sincere and without offence till the day of Christ; 11 Being filled with the fruits of righteousness, which are by Jesus Christ, unto the glory and praise of God. Christ’s siblings are to be without offense to one another and influence each other’s lives as offspring of God by the fellowship of the Holy Spirit having a divine nature as they are the only ones by whom signs, wonders, and miracles occur.
Most believers have little knowledge and understanding of how the Holy Spirit enables sibling interaction. Thus, immaturity continues to affect the well-being of the body of Christ. I know you will not like discussing this issue but revealing that fellowship by a spiritual event of the Holy Spirit is so that you and I, parts of Christ’s body, align ourselves to the will of our heavenly Father under the headship of Jesus Christ.
Denominational and religious unions consistently downplay our spiritual unity regarding fellowship and travail over building a union of Christians to be at the spiritual forefront of every gathering. Most church doctrine boldly opposes any faith stance among others that doesn’t align, and yet pulpits no longer teach on fellowship. Today’s believers focus more on social media, the latest trends, and the current interactive events they convey of worldly content, resulting in no real spiritual habitation, among other things.
God expects, our fellowship comes from an active presence of the Holy Spirit, so what is done is the same for all. He told me a long time ago: that sheep produce more sheep. This revelation of truth aligns with the replenishment He stated before the beginning. I won’t detail this here, but a consciousness of unity revealed by the Holy Spirit is so that what appears is not denominationally biased or seen as a ministerial dole but as having power and authority.
2 Cor 6:14-18 (AMP) Do not be unequally yoked with unbelievers [do not make mis-mated alliances with them or come under a different yoke with them, inconsistent with your faith]. For what partnership have right living and right standing with God with iniquity and lawlessness? Or how can light have fellowship with darkness? Paul says a believer’s fellowship must be aligned with those in right standing in Christ rather than those in the lawlessness of sin and iniquity.
As churches pander to the masses for ego recognition from peers, ignorance of truth allows unfamiliar spirits to enter the flock. 15 What harmony can there be between Christ and Belial [the devil]? Or what has a believer in common with an unbeliever? This raises a question concerning unbelievers and their attending services. Many accept them and hope they get saved and become new members. This is not to say this is not OK, as it is better to be among believers than continue among sinners.
16 What agreement [can there be between] a temple of God and idols? For we are the temple of the living God; even as God said, I will dwell in and with and among them and will walk in and with and among them, and I will be their God, and they shall be My people. Today, however, social media has ushered in a pre-mandate of resistance to truths presented for those attending. They worship the idols of past iniquity, seen as men and women seeking to be exalted by its social anarchy and ideals of self-indulgence.
I know no one wants to see our fellowship as having any evil at work, but when the Church cannot fellowship in the unity God directs, the devil behind the wickedness on the earth is having a field day. Therefore, believers in a union that invokes a spiritual habitation of God are not to be partakers of anything that defers the presence of His power and authority.
17 So, come out from among [unbelievers], and separate (sever) yourselves from them, says the Lord, and touch not [any] unclean thing; then I will receive you kindly and treat you with favor, 18 And I will be a Father to you, and you shall be My sons and daughters, says the Lord Almighty. Social behavior is used today to study humanity’s physiology and sociology. It is a behavioral activity directed towards others in its most basic form and is today’s standard for gauging societal activity or group inclusivity.
Society and these unions are discontented over not being as few would have us believe we should be. Today’s group mentality is among people commonly related by senseless errors who argue that they are becoming the foundational platforms for activists and even pulpits. This activity does not favor God but does show the level of mediocre faith present.
Social behavior amongst believers is for a spiritual nurturing of transformation through a relationship with Christ. Thus, every family member of God must learn to interact spiritually with all parts of the family through the Holy Spirit. Psalm 94:12-23 Blessed is the man whom thou chastenest, O LORD, and teachest him out of thy law; 13 That thou mayest give him rest from the days of adversity, until the pit be digged for the wicked. 14 For the LORD will not cast off his people, neither will he forsake his inheritance. 15 But judgment shall return unto righteousness: and all the upright in heart shall follow it.
So, before we go any further on this, an issue to be discussed is the very nature of those coming into fellowship among believers today, as many are taking up habitation alongside those in right standing in Christ but continue to live by the evils of the day. 16 Who will rise up for me against the evildoers? or who will stand up for me against the workers of iniquity? 17 Unless the LORD had been my help, my soul had almost dwelt in silence. 18 When I said, My foot slippeth; thy mercy, O LORD, held me up.
Church leaders must face the fact an alien invasion that’s of a spiritual kind is occurring and stop presenting worldly-natured invites so that evil spirits come in not aligned with scriptural truth but usher in an evil covert effort to disrupt the faith of those already in Christ. These are aliens not of the illegal kind at our country’s borders but aliens to God who focus on changing the flow of power at the pulpit and amending the works of the Holy Spirit. They pay tithes, give offerings, and appear as good but will not be transformed in spirit and soul by the word.
Today’s ignorant and arrogant pulpits are unaware of the latest warfare tactics of the enemy, and the faith of congregants is under attack. Thus, inviting senseless rhetoric under the auspices of acts of ministerial pandering opens the gates of hell in the Church. Like it or not, evil spirits now abide in and among those hanging on God’s promises and the Lord’s mercy. And church leaders turn congregants over to bands of young idealists who see the Church as the last bastion of anti-liberal white supremacy.
Most pulpits spend time not for revelation or the dissertations of Christ by the Holy Spirit but on how to avoid gatherings that will subjugate their humanist mannerisms and be subject to spiritual correction. At the same time, the lives of God’s sheep suffer as mediocre faith arises among church believers who have given up on seeing a return to the days of supernatural signs, wonders, and miracles that are common within the realm of the Holy Spirit’s work.
19 In the multitude of my thoughts within me thy comforts delight my soul. 20 Shall the throne of iniquity have fellowship with thee, which frameth mischief by a law? 21 They gather themselves together against the soul of the righteous, and condemn the innocent blood. There are workers of iniquity who see themselves justified in their actions, emboldened by the lawlessness that prevails on our streets and in our government. They refuse to promote a God consciousness and see the work of the Holy Spirit as supreme over humanity’s new inclusiveness.
A factor that gives evidence that another kind of spirit is in action in churches is that there is no spiritual authoritative structure to be followed. Pastoral posts are defined as a myriad of co-parties, co-pastors, co-lead pastors, co-associate pastors, co-pastors to the co-pastors, etc., making it evident that there is no desire to be held spiritually responsible. However, they need to know that the creator of all will not let Christ’s prized possession, the saved and the Church that comprises them, be evilly covertly skewed into a spiritually unrecognizable stature.
22 But the LORD is my defence; and my God is the rock of my refuge. 23 And he shall bring upon them their own iniquity, and shall cut them off in their own wickedness; yea, the LORD our God shall cut them off. Therefore, don’t think that the days of old when the Spirit of God was actively present in every action are gone forever. It is still by His word through the Spirit that He brings about mature offspring for this present day of iniquity.
So, getting back to the subject of this post. Many Christians today still see themselves as part of a ministering body but not as siblings in God’s family. This creates voids where spiritual ignorance prevails, hindering, if not eliminating, a unity of Agape among them. The fact believers are all part of the body of Christ should be understood in the aspects of any transformation He says must take place to affirm it.
As Paul explains in the verse below, the grace of God is in us, and intent on bringing about a mutual agreement regarding giving to His work in ministry. 2 Cor 9:14 (AMP) And they yearn for you while they pray for you, because of the surpassing measure of God’s grace (His favor and mercy and spiritual blessing which is shown forth) in you. By grace, believers are to have a mutual love for one another, not as casual acquaintances, but as spiritually affectionate siblings who desire the presence of the Heavenly Father by the Holy Spirit from each.
