Strange Things Has Entered The Church

One of the things that makes God different from man, is that, "with God all things are possible". God is a slient judge. He knows us more than we know ourselves, He watches over us and He sees in our innermost heart and all the things we are doing in life. The almighty God created us in His own image; He sees our beginning, He knows our end. Since He is our Creator, He has the ability to see
all the hinden things we do on earth. There is no secrecy in His presence because He sees all and He certainly knows all. Despite the fact that God is watching man and He is slient does not mean we continue in our sinful nature because time is coming when the slient Judge shall come to judge the world.

The truth is that, our leaders in the religions sector are no longer saying the truth as they supposed to do; all because they want to get applause from man, our religion system is now been mixed  up with politics. As we all know, religion is one's belief regarding the Creator of man and the Universe. And politics is the duty of man and its society; both invovled the activities of man to be carried out. Religions leader can be involve in politics when there is a necessity; the bond of CAN ( Christian Association of Nigeria) is no more firm as it ought to be. Everyone is just after the politicians for their selfish interest. The churches are now preaching against themselves. I am not surprise seeing what is now happening in the African Pentecostal Churches in Germany. Many leaders have no time to monitor the affairs of their branches or parishes in abroad because they are too busy with politics
They set up churches just to prove they have the highest members or followers in the world, forgetting that one day they will stand before the silent judge of the universe to give account of their work.

Why is there so much confusion in the church? (Case Study);The African (Nigeria/Ghana) pentecostal churches in Germany have been fighting spiritually and physically. I got several calls on daily basis from different African Pentecostal Churches members who are  having one issues or the other with the way things are been done today in the church. And it has been like that for so long. Many who came to the church healthy, claimed to be suffering from some kind of spiritual attacks from the church. Strange things have entered the church of God; Emergency prophets have emerged across the globe. The Altar of God is now the coven of voodoo with talisman and charms. They use members glory to empower themselves spiritually. Some with dangerous occultic weapons. Even those who entered their churches to overcome their battles; have gotten their battles multiplied for them.

Recently i got a report from a source, from one of the African Pentecostal Church in Germany where a faithful member of the church is now suffering from a spiritual attacks. The victim claimed she was attacked by some spiritual forces during one of her intercessory prayer for the church. She also, claimed that her destiny has been  exchanged spiritually in place of the church' glory and fame to attract more members to their church. Some members of the church also testified
on how the sister has been commited and faithful to the work of God in cash and service to the 
church. According to a source from the church, she was one of the people that paid her tithes in 
thousands of Euro before she got the attack. 

The illness or attack isn't the problem but what was the reaction of the church after her attack? Since her sickness is seasonal, whenever she has the problem they bring her to the hospital and when she gets well, she go home and continue with her normal life. Looking at her, she look very well and healthy. Since her problem is considered to be spiritual; even though they see it as a spiritual attack
based on her stories.  Sometimes her crisis could start right inside the church and the people will be afraid to come near her.  In some cases the crisis will start from anger based on certain things that happened in the church and she will speaks in aggressive manner; even though she has a point they just ignored her or try humiliating or talking down to her just because of her condition; she not of any value or relevant to the church anymore. At one time she try to raise a question like "you can't time
the holy spirit" and she was asked to leave the meeting by the wife of the assistance pastor of  her church. That she is no more part of them. Can you see the church?

Another thing that bothers me about the African Pentecostal Church in Germany is the abuse of speaking in tongues. I have, had times when i am having a discussion with people, on a normal platform; suddenly i begin to hear "macsadeboeshia" another time i hear "maricocococlalajaku",and i have been puzzled, not knowing when speaking in tongues comes into carnal matter or things of the flesh. Some Pastors too are not excluded, hmmm strange things are happening in the Christendom. 

If Jesus arrives would He meet faith on earth? We must refrain from hypocrisy, we can not deceive God with eye-service. We manage to comply with denominational doctrines and neglecting God's ordinances. A lot of christians today are pretenders with corrupt hearts; sin has hindered the prayers of many believers, we can not continue in sin,"that grace may abound?" for the wages of sin is death. Most christians have died spiritually, some ministry don't even have the presence of the Holy Spirit in
their churches anymore but yet they are leading their congregation blindly. For without the Holy 
Spirit you can do nothing. You can not betray God successfully, you will only deceive yourself to death. May God have mercy on the church and may He never leave or ignore His church. 

Another Story that happened in the church in Germany; was the case of two member from the church choir having misunderstanding because they were jealous over their Pastor. One of them said that she was the first to start cooking and doing other house chores for the Pastor since his wife and family resides in Nigeria. Even though there is nothing wrong in helping and taking care of the ministers of 
God. Why should two choirs quarreled over the Pastor and that leads to the division of that particlar 
church. A church that used to be a place of celebration of love has suddenly turned to a dry ground with lasting memories of bitter experience for the faithful members of the church. The person who coursed this commotion in the church was able to pulled out some key members from the church to start their own ministry. Strange things are now happening in the church of God. Everyone is now a 
Pastor; some are sent by God, others are sent by their stomach and another are called by self righteousness. 

We are in the end time: the scriptures stated clearly things to look out for at the end time. Let all Ministers of God go and examine themselves; what is the answer to this question? Since the truth of word of salvation, has become an archaic sermon, what does the Lord stand to gain? When the names of the righteous are called and yours is missing; hypocritic, and unfaithful believers, backbiting and backstabbling in church. Negative prayer  and fasting against your neigbours, remember  He is the Creator of all, and He is more than wisdom. And you shall meet him 
at the point of no Return. Get ready Jesus is coming back again soon. And lack of repentance attracts a painful judgement.

Repent today and ask for mercy. Let us surrender and honour God so that we can reign with Christ. Our primary duty is to seek God's kingdom first and all other thing shall be added unto us. He is coming back soon. Get ready!
