Analysis of A MESSAGE TO THE CHURCH



THE  PROBLEM  THESE  DAYS  WHEREBY OUR  CHURCHES   FALTER,
IS  THAT  THEY'VE  STOPPED HAVING  A  PRAYER  NIGHT  AND  NOT  ONLY  THAT
BUT  THEY'VE  REMOVED  THE  ALTAR.
THEY  HAVE  TRAMPLED  THE  LORDS  NAME  DRAGGING  IT  THROUGH  THE  MUD,
THE  SERMONS  NOW  PREACHED  NEVER MENTION  THE  BLOOD.
THIS  MESSAGE  IM  PREACHING  MAY  BE  A  BIT  SHOCKING,
BUT  LET  ME  GO  ONE  STEP  FURTHER  BY  SAYING  THAT  ACCORDING  TO
SCRIPTURE  JESUS  IS  OUTSIDE  OF  THE  CHURCH  DOOR  WHERE  HE  STANDS
KNOCKING.
