Corrupt Church Government Must Repent
by Karen Pansler-Lam, J.D.
Many Evangelicals believe Donald Trump’s victory is a promise the Lord will restore Christian America, and God will use the President as an instrument in His plan. Undeniably, Christian America has become Apostate America. In the name of “diversity” – multiculturalism, inclusion, inter-faith, ecumenism, pluralism and other deceptive words cloaking idolatry – America has become a polytheistic nation. And some professing Christians sanction idolatry by proudly participating in the worship of false gods. In other words, so-called Christians join hands with unbelievers and dance around golden calves – false gods. They have been seduced by the devilish doctrine of diversity, or “inclusion.” Even churches have been seduced by the devilish doctrine of “inclusion,” or making everyone welcome. Now, churches are no longer exclusive places of worship and fellowship for the saints, but "inclusive" and welcome sinners into the sanctuary. Inclusion means we have to welcome everyone into the church, even those who are not in one accord. No one must be excluded. No wonder there is no moving of the Holy Spirit in our churches today! The Bible doesn’t teach “inclusion.” The Bible teaches churches must be united in one accord, or singleness of heart (Acts 2:46; Romans 15:5,6; 1 Corinthians 1:10). We are “churches of the saints” and “holy brethren (1 Corinthians 14:33; 1 Thessalonians 5:27). Only the sanctified are Christian brethren (Hebrews 2:11). Indeed, we are concerned with lost souls. Every Christian is commissioned to convert sinners outside the church, then bring them into the churchfold. Or, we may invite sinners to evangelism services to hear the Gospel message of salvation and sanctification. Converts are then welcome to join the church for discipleship and fellowship with holy brethren, or the saints. But in our foolish wisdom, we willfully defy God’s command, “Be ye separate.” In willful disobedience to God’s Word, we make sinners feel at home in the sanctuary by offering profane worship, such as “Christian” rock n’ roll. And we teach “values” instead of virtues. And we teach theology or “Christian worldview” instead of Biblical truths, or Truth. In other words, we purpose in our hearts to offer sinner-friendly “programs” to please men, not holy worship to please God. We offend God to please men! And the churches' Old Guard sit silently in the pews and say to themselves, “Why doesn’t someone speak up?” They are too cowardly to speak out against apostasy in their church because they want to appear nice and amiable. Or, they are seduced by the devilish appeal, “Aren’t you willing to do anything to bring youth, including your grandchildren, into the church?” “Anything” means profane worship. Or, the pastor and members of the church bully them into silence. So, they knowingly support an apostate church with their attendance, tithes, offerings and other encouragement. But they are partaking of the apostate church's evil deeds, and will be held accountable to God (2 John 11). What should they do? Get up, walk out and find another church, worship at home, or attend a home church like the early Christians. “For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst of them” (Matthew 18:20). No wonder America is an apostate nation! Christians blame our civil government for America’s apostasy, but the truth is church government is to blame. We allowed false religious leaders to take over our church government and bring in apostate teaching and preaching. And we refuse to discipline ourselves to read the Bible, and are spoon-fed a false gospel by televangelists and local pastors. We refuse to be like the Bereans who “received the word with all readiness of mind, and searched the scriptures daily, whether those things were so” (Acts 17:11). Woe unto us! for we are too lazy to seek the Truth. Listen… God has chosen us to salvation through sanctification of the Spirit and belief of the Truth. We cannot be sanctified apart from the Truth – God’s Word.
Sanctify
them through thy truth: If you’re not sanctified, you’re not saved.
The House of God, which is the
church of the living God, is supposed to be the pillar and ground of the
Truth (1 Timothy 3:15). Sinners and saints proclaim that to make the world a
better place "all you need is love." We turn our ears away from the Truth,
and turn to m Evangelicals turn their back on the true Gospel and follow after progressive or evolving Christianity – the social gospel, or the gospel of social services, another name for socialism/communism. This false gospel denies the true Gospel of man’s need for salvation and sanctification, and declares the mission of the Church is providing local, national, and global social services. We have gone a whoring after Rick Warren’s false teaching of shifting away from “sin issues” – like abortion and gay marriage – and embracing “uniting” issues such as poverty, climate change, human rights, human trafficking, and other humanist issues. Consequently, because churches refuse to denounce sin and preach holiness, sin abounds in our churches and nation: abortion, pornography, greed, divorce, homosexuality and transgenderism, child molestation, fornication and other wickedness. Because of our deliberate misinterpretation of “Judge not,” (Matthew 7:1), our churches and nation are polluted with false Christians living comfortably with sin in their lives. We quip arrogantly: “Don’t judge me, and I won’t judge you.” But “judge not” means don’t be a hypocrite, as explained in 7:5, “Thou hypocrite, first cast out the beam out of thine own eye; and then shalt thou see clearly to cast out the mote out of thy brother’s eye.” And we willfully ignore Paul's command that wicked persons must be cast out of the House of God so that others are not infected. "Your glorying is not good. Know ye not that a little leaven leaventh the whole lump?" (1 Corinthians 5:6). But in the name of "inclusion" we glory in bringing sinners into the church! And "holiness" is a forbidden word. Now, Evangelicals are alarmed by the consequences of refusing to preach holiness. Our nation’s morality is spiraling downward because corrupt church leaders preach a corrupt gospel of cheap grace, instead of the true Gospel of repentance, reconciliation to God, and sanctification. And now we expect President Trump to single-handedly restore Christian America. But restoring Christian America will take many hearts and many hands. First, corrupt churches must be cleansed. This cleansing must include purging the churches of the social gospel – church social services. In short, religious communism. Rick Warren and other false teachers and false preachers promote religious communism disguised as “progressive Christianity.” They willfully ignore God’s righteousness and establish their own righteousness; they refuse to submit to the righteousness of God. In fact, Warren and his humanist comrades bully true Christians who hold fast to the doctrine of sanctification and denounce them as “self-righteous.” But we are called to be saints: called to salvation through sanctification, or holiness. In the August 18, 2008, issue of Time magazine, the cover story heralds, “The Purpose Driven Pastor: Rick Warren - America’s most powerful religious leader takes on the world.” According to Time, Warren concocted the PEACE plan, a scheme to turn every single Christian church on earth into a provider of local health care, literacy and economic development, leadership training and spiritual growth. PEACE is an acronym for:
Promote reconciliation
Don't let "promote reconciliation" fool you. It means reconcile all our differences - even religious ones. The P really stands for promoting reconciliation among diverse religious groups such as Christians and Muslims. Therefore, the P actually stands for promoting the one-world religion of religious humanism, or religious communism, and destroying true Christianity. In other words, Warren’s reconciliation means reconciling to other religions, not reconciliation to God whom we have offended. Warren preaches a perverse gospel. Warren is more interested in uniting with the communists of the world than obeying the command, “Be ye separate.” Warren purposely defies Paul’s command in 2 Corinthians 6:14 –18 to come out from among unbelievers and touch not the unclean thing: 14 Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness? and what communion hath light with darkness? 15 And what concord hath Christ with Belial? or what part hath he that believeth with an infidel? 16 And what agreement hath the temple of God with idols? for ye are the temple of the living God; as God hath said, I will dwell in them, and walk in them; and I will be their God, and they shall be my people. 17 Wherefore come out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord, and touch not the unclean thing; and I will receive you. 18 And will be a Father unto you, and ye shall be my sons and daughters, saith the Lord Almighty. But because corrupt church government allowed Warren’s religious communism to infiltrate churches, we are proud of being unequally yoked with unbelievers. We are proud of our “fellowship” with the unrighteous in the name of “inclusion” – casting out reverent and holy worship to include sinners in the sanctuary. And we are proud of our “communion” with darkness by participating in inter-faith worship with Muslims, Buddhists, Bahaists, Hindus and others who are the spirit of antichrist. Consequently, true Christians in churches who denounce unholy unity and unholy worship are dealt with harshly. In fact, Warren teaches false Christian leaders to use communist tactics to drive out true believers. Church Transitions, an associate of Warren’s Saddleback Church in California, instructs pastors and other church staff to bully and demean congregations into submission to religious communism, or deal with them harshly: 1. Identify those who are resisting the changes; 2. Assess the effectiveness of their opposition; 3. Befriend those who are undecided about the changes; 4. Marginalize more persistent resisters; 5. Vilify those who stay and fight; and
6. Establish new rules that will silence all resistance. Go to this link to hear Warren admit he learned how to develop campaigns for his church from the communists. http://pulpitandpen.org/2016/09/02/rick-warren-learned-church-campaign-from-communists/ America is a cesspool of sin because the Church of God, Assemblies of God, Church of the Nazarene, Southern Baptist Convention, and other Evangelicals have gone a whoring after Rick Warren’s false god of religious communism.

“Wake Up, Evangelicals!” http://libertyadvocate.com/message28.htm Listen... If we want to cleanse America, we must first cleanse our churches. Again, it is hypocritical of Christians to demand that President Trump cleanse our corrupt civil government when we refuse to cleanse our corrupt church government. Second, we must humble ourselves before the Lord and turn from our wicked ways.
If my people, The Lord renews with Solomon the covenant He made with his father, David. Notice, this is a conditional covenant: If you repent, then I will forgive your sin, and heal your land. If Solomon does not obey God’s commands, God will reject him and bring catastrophe upon the land (1 Kings 9:1-9). In plain language, Scripture clearly teaches that God’s forgiveness and healing are conditional.
If
you humble yourselves, But we are arrogant and refuse to humble ourselves and turn from our wicked ways. We believe our work to restore Christian America was done when we voted for Trump. Now we can rest in our recliners, continue our unsanctified lives and profane worship, and wait for Trump to make America great again. But political and social reform cannot transform America into a righteous nation. In order to return to Christian America, our hearts and minds must be transformed. We cannot be a holy nation if we are an unholy people. A “Christian America” of unholy Christians - false Christians - is a false Christian nation. Therefore…
Let
us cleanse ourselves from all filthiness of the flesh and spirit, Again, it is hypocritical of Evangelicals to demand that President Trump cleanse our corrupt civil government when we refuse to cleanse our corrupt hearts and corrupt churches. We are hypocrites! We must repent! We must humble ourselves…. And we must pray…. And we must seek God’s face…. And we must turn from our wicked ways. Then God will hear our prayers… And forgive our sin… And heal our land. Let us humble ourselves and cry out to the Lord God…
Purge me with hyssop,
Create in me a clean heart, If we repent…then God will heal our land. O America: Repent!
