FAKE, PHONY, SHAMS AND SELF-DECEPTIONS! PART 1
If I could paraphrase the words of Paul from the book of I Corinthians, there are church services, houses of prayer, memberships or whatever else one may want to call these Sunday and midweek meetings that literally do more harm to their members than good. They hurt the spirit man more than they help. I heard Tony Evans say recently in one of his sermons that people come to church to make themselves feel good. To put it in my own words it’s as though people go to church for that weekly high or fix and yet leave with the same poor attitudes, bad character and evil hateful spirits that they came with. The unfortunate thing is that when evil spirits get together with like spirits they become more evil and stronger. When racism, hatred and poor character get together on a weekly basis they encourage each other. They find strength in one another. It’s as though they’re saying, “I’m okay, you’re okay.” They can’t see and refuse to see the darkness in others because it would mean that they would have to identify it within themselves. It would mean that they would have to take the plank out of their own eyes before they could remove the splinter from someone else’s.
