What are we to do with Jesus?

     There are many things that have crept into our church today. Wolves and tares warned of by John, Peter and Paul. These wolves and tares are working to destroy the true Church of God, the bride of Christ, just as they have since the beginning. The work of Christ has not stopped, but the work of the devil has also not stopped either. The trouble is, we have become complacent, lazy, easily fooled because everything is put in front of our bible reading and prayer life.
     It is impossible to keep Jesus first, when so many of the congregations are allowing sin and antichrist teachings to be spewed from the pulpits and sanctuaries. If the truth is not preached, then those seeking to destroy the Christian work have a good foothold to come in and take over, destroying those seeking the true Jesus and true salvation. So then, what are we to do with Jesus?
     If we throw out what the bible says about homosexuality in Romans 1 and 2, as well as Leviticus Chapter 18 and 20, then what are we to do with Jesus? Didn't Jesus say he came not abolish the law, but to fulfill it? (Matthew 5:17)
     If we throw out what the bible says about the love of money, as with the prosperity preachers, then what are we to do with Jesus? (1 Timothy 6:10)
     If we throw out what the bible says about idols, in our churches and in our home life, anything put before God, what are we to do with Jesus? (The bible is full of condemnation against this, but one verse is Exodus 20:4)
     If we throw out what the bible says about being uncompassionate about charity and our fellow man, looking after our widows and orphans, protecting the weak, then what are we to do with Jesus? (Matthew 22:36-40)
     Finally, but not last in a long list, if we do not witness to others when the Holy Spirit compels us, when we do not preach the Gospel to the lost, when we do not try to reach the sinner because of fear of political correctness or hate speech accusations, then what are we to do with Jesus? (Matthew 28:16-20)
     In each and every case, we have tossed Jesus aside in defeat to Satan and those who knowingly or unknowingly work for him. But, in the long run, Jesus is not defeated, He has already won the victory at the cross. It is each one of us, as a Christian, who have allowed ourselves to be defeated, and we will answer for that on the Judgment Day. Now is the time to repent of our weakness and lack of trust in Jesus and His strength. Now is the time to revive our congregations with truth and grace. It isn't too late, for the last trumpet hasn't sounded yet. But it may in the next day, or hour, or minute.
     What are we to do with Jesus? We are not to be ashamed or the message, or of Him. We are to proclaim His name and His Gospel on the mountain tops for all to see and hear. We are to reclaim Jesus as the true Savior and Son of God and the only true path to salvation. Let those who have an ear, hear.
