From the Pastor:
Dr. M. J. Seymour, Sr.
“Every
tree that bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down and cast into the
fire. Wherefore by their fruits ye shall
know them. Not every one that saith unto
me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the
will of my Father which is in heaven.” (Matt. 7:19-21)
While
growing up I encountered many a menacing brat that would do evil and provoke
others; but after their evilness they would run behind momma’s apron for
protection declaring their sweet little innocence. It is absolutely grotesque to behold this
same tactic being used by those who pretentiously lay claim to
“Christianity.” Far too many wicked folk
want to go forth in an abortionic froth inflicting their evilness on other; but
when confronted they want to run behind the “Christian apron” for divine
protection. The truth of the matter is
that there is not an ounce of holy Christianity in them. “By their fruits ye shall know them.”
These
vile frauds parade in their cloaks of self-righteousness and grace the churches
with their presence as they strut in full adorning peacockisms. The Bible teaches “cursed be the
deceiver.” Their days are filled in evil
deeds and abuses breaking almost every commandment of God and are infuriated
with anyone daring to question their “sincere Christianity.” They feel all the liberty of the world to dish
out ungodliness, but when challenged they flee to the proverbial Christian
apron declaring their angelic innocence and the challenger’s “lack of Christian
character.” “You are supposed to be a
Christian, and there you are acting that way toward me! I am a real ‘Christian’ but you must not
be!” Sound familiar?
The Lord
never instructed the Believers to be punching bags and welcome mats for every scumbag’s
evil behavior. We are the sons of God, ambassadors
of New Jerusalem, blood bought by the Christ, and born out of and indwelt by the
Holy Spirit. We are born to be priests and
kings to our God, not to be victims of apron hiders.
