The Day Is Far Spent! Responsible To Teach Our Children The Truth!

We must continue to be focused on what God is speaking to us and to the Body of Christ. God is calling us to take back what belongs to Him. It is time to take back our nation, our schools, our churches, our families and our children. We have allowed the covering or mantle of the Holy Spirit to slowly erode and thereby give access to the spirit of darkness in each of these areas of our lives.

God is calling us as the Body of Christ to rise up in the power and authority of heaven and challenge this onslaught and invasion by the powers of darkness. We must begin where we live. We must begin with our own families. We must stop this intrusion of deception that has silently crept into our lives. We must weigh the doctrines of men with the plumb line of God’s Holy Word and respond accordingly. We can no longer accept a role of passivism which is the mother of apathy. A lack of action has brought us to where we are. It’s time to stand up and be counted as a people who preach, teach and live by the Truth of God’s Word.

We have a Divine responsibility to teach our children the Truth by Word and deed. The confusion that appears to have come about concerning the sexual identity of individuals in this generation could have been addressed at the very root of its origin if parents had taught their children the Truth and lived that Truth before them. We are reaping a harvest of our indecisiveness. We have been too afraid we might offend or drive them away.

The time has come to decide how we want to finish this journey! God is giving this world an ultimatum much in the same way Elijah challenged Israel at Mt. Carmel. 1 Kings 18:21, “And Elijah came unto all the people, and said, How long halt ye between two opinions? if the LORD be God, follow him: but if Baal, then follow him. And the people answered him not a word.” How long will we linger in indecision, standing mute before Almighty God?

In the New Testament, Paul stated that there was a time when God overlooked our ignorance. Acts 17:29, “Forasmuch then as we are the offspring of God, we ought not to think that the Godhead is like unto gold, or silver, or stone, graven by art and man's device. 30 And the times of this ignorance God winked at; but now commandeth all men every where to repent: 31 Because he hath appointed a day, in the which he will judge the world in righteousness by that man whom he hath ordained; whereof he hath given assurance unto all men, in that he hath raised him from the dead.” When a man comes to the understanding of the Truth, he is then held accountable for that Truth. God has pleaded with this world in generation after generation to accept His gift of salvation through Jesus Christ. “...but now commandeth all men every where to repent:” The result has been a response of stone-cold rejection to His love and mercy by the majority of people. God is preparing to bring every thought and deed into His eternal judgment. “...Because he hath appointed a day, in the which he will judge the world in righteousness by that man whom he hath ordained;...” That day is swiftly approaching!

It’s time to decide how we want to finish our journey! We must take a stand for the Truth of God’s Word in this generation. It’s time to stand up and be counted as a people who preach, teach and live by the Truth of God’s Word. The Day Is Far Spent!
