God Thinking XXV - The Beginning Of Revelation 1

"God is about to reveal the emptiness of all religions that deny the Son of God. 
God is also about to reveal the emptiness of life without the Son of God. 
God is about to tear down the walls of any church that does not do what they were called to do.
 
Their services, programs, doctrine, hierarchy - their staff, their debt, their unfaithfulness, their sin will all be tried, as by fire, and exposed for what it is.
 
God is not doing this to punish His people, but to enlighten them. 
 
Instead of being the body of Christ, many Churches have been making for themselves a body of clients, of clicks, of fraternities, of social clubs, elitist groups  - In and of themselves, having clients, being part of a click, fraternity, social club or group is not a bad thing, but when they are disguised as God’s holy church, that’s another thing.  
 
God will not have it.  Hear what Jesus has to say about it in Matthew 21:12-13
“And Jesus went into the temple of God, and cast out all them that sold and bought in the temple, and overthrew the tables of the moneychangers, and the seats of them that sold doves, V13 And said unto them, It is written, My house shall be called a house of prayer; but ye have made it a den of thieves.”

Abuses, unfaithfulness and irresponsibility must first be purged out before that which is right can be established.
