The Great and Terrible Day of the Lord

I believe that the great and terrible day of the Lord is upon us:

  • It Will be GREAT for Believers
  • It will be TERRIBLE for Unbelievers
  • It will be MAYBE for Maybe Believers
I am convinced that you will see how many so called churches and pastors falling apart at the seams when they great and terrible day hits. I think of the church in China. When the pressure is on you don't hear much about 3 ways to live a better life. I like Joel Osteen but his book probably isn't much of a seller to those house pentecostal Christians persecuted in China.

Most of the church in America is what George Barna just released in a study. Most people who self identify as Christian believe most of the stories in the Bible.

Very Very high percentages believe David slew Goliath, Daniel in the lions den and Jesus rose from the dead.

But, Barna says this one thing, "
There is a disconnect between belief and practice."

When the great and terrible day hits home the churches will either empty out or fill up. Then like after 9-11 the churches that have an answer and know God will help the maybe believers become true believers, the ones who don't will cause people to become unbelievers.

The Blood of those people will be on those nominal pastors and leaders hands.

The great and terrible day. I'm looking forward to it. It'll be great.
