COME OUT OF HER
Rv:18:4: And I heard another voice from heaven, saying, Come out of her, my people, that ye be not partaker's of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues.
This scripture deals with a command for Gods people to come out of the Great Whore. Most people like to define the Great Whore as something they are not a part of.... Well think again.
Jms:4:4: Ye adulterers and adulteresses, know ye not that the friendship of the world is enmity with God? whosoever therefore will be a friend of the world is the enemy of God.
As you can see, friendship with the world can be adultery with God. This is the mystery of the Great Whore in the book of revelation -
IT'S IN YOUR HEAD....
ITS IN MY HEAD? What do mean?
Rv:17:5: And upon her forehead was a name written, MYSTERY, BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS AND ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH.
The mystery to all of mankind's disobedience is in THE CARNAL MIND. That is why the NAME is written on the FOREHEAD.
In order to COME OUT OF HER... you have to COME OUT OF YOUR CARNAL MIND (the selfish lower nature of man). The way of LOVE is contrary to the ways of SELF. This is the truth in its most simple terms.
Jesus said you must FORSAKE ALL or you cannot be His disciple. (Lk 14:33) You make time for what is important and your kids know what you make time for... So don't FOOL yourself. When your kids get old enough to VOTE with their actions... will they follow your religion of PASSIVE CHURCH ATTENDANCE...? or will they follow the PASSION of your dedication for worship and service to Jesus Christ?
Trust me... your report card is on the way.
Jesus said His disciples would see Him, but the world would not. (Jn 14:19) Have your eyes been open to the glorious life in Christ? Well, what do you spend most of your time doing? Seeking riches?... or seeking the Kingdom of God??? Jesus said "seek ye first the kingdom of God" (Matt 6:33). And,... everyman shall reap what he sows. We make time for... and make a way to do WHAT WE REALLY WANT...! Amen.
Look around and see some of the problems in your life and the life of your children. Is the influence of the world creeping in? Is the power of "evil communications corrupting good manners" (1 Cor 15:33)??? Do you see why God tells us to live a separated life?
You need the fellowship (power of association) of God's people more than you need the corrupting influence of the world. Yes, I know God wants us to be a good witness and not hid in a cave... but you can't live with serpents and send your children to the school of devils and ask God to protect you. God said come OUT...! and provide a place for others to come OUT...!
Christians need to provide a SOLUTION and quit trying to reform what needs to fall under the weight of it's own corruption. That's why the New Testament Church lived in Community.(Acts chapter 2-3).
The home schooling movement along with the Christian community movement is the voice of God providing a SOLUTION.... can you hear?
Think about it... You only have one life to give to the Lord.
