What if the Church structure and hierarchy was not almost an exact replica of that of the world? What if we actually looked for Jesus in the scripture rather then trying to write ourselves into it? What if our place of sustenance was our local church...and our spiritual leaders were pastors, elders and teachers instead of singers and musicians? 

I pray that, in the church we would stop looking to people; in the Body, we would stop making celebrities; in God’s House we would stop trying to build man’s Babel.


5/5/21

Is it just me, or is the Church starting to look like a pyramid - with big names at the top…and everyone else at the bottom? Church is not supposed to be a reflection of the world. We are supposed to look like a community…a Body - with Christ as the ONLY Head…where we all need each other in order to properly function. When we don’t function like this, is when the Body gets sick.


Are we not supposed as Christians, to look to Christ and His Word FIRST?…not to the latest word from the “prophet” or the newest revelation from the “apostle”. This is a form of idolatry and is causing a sinful stain in the Body of Christ. 


This has been weighing on my spirit for a very long time…a Tower of Babel has been inadvertently built in God’s House…largely through the elitist and worldly practices of what has been coined the New Apostolic Reformation*, and through man-made ideals like the unbiblical “seven mountain mandate”. However genuine their beginnings, they have become monuments of pride to the glory of man…They have erected a pyramid right there, in the House of God…and these “apostles” and other members of the “five-fold ministry” have placed themselves on the top. 

This is one of America’s most dangerous exports to the global Church…it is bringing a terrible reproach on the Name of the Lord, and causing many to fall away. 

And still…”If my people who are called by my name humble themselves, and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven and will forgive their sin and heal their land. (2Chronicles7:14)


Just as a final note: If Church were a pyramid structure, where would Jesus Christ be? - Read Ephesians 2:20. We’ve got it all upside down and we need to set it right.

The Beautiful Remnant of America Part 1

15  “Can a woman forget her nursing child,      that she should have no compassion on the son of her womb? Even these may forget,      yet I will not forget you. 16  Behold, I have engraved you on the palms of my hands;      your walls are continually before me. Isaiah 49:15-16 This most recent prophecy is part of my “Fast for Family”, and again runs parallel with my previous visions - some of which can be read in the footnotes at the end. The Beautiful Remnant of the United States of America  i The unity of baptism : I saw many in America: Many families. They stood as if on the banks of the Red Sea, as Israel under Moses…driven there by the Holy Spirit, perused by the kingdom of the anti-Christ. They had been driven there for Baptism: I saw many families. They went down separately…and when they came up they were one: in the Lord and in each other. I realized that this type of unity…the desire and prayer of Jesus…can only ...

Volume III The Beautiful Remnant of America - Part 2

The Beautiful Remnant of America Part II  So they shall fear the name of the Lord from the west, and his glory from the rising of the sun; for he will come like a rushing stream, which the wind of the Lord drives. Isaiah 59:19 Before continuing, please ensure that you have first read Chapter 1 ~ The Olive Press https://undergod714.blogspot.com/2024/03/john-1220-among-those-who-went-up-to.html i ~ The “Hidden” Remnant   “What is a tree without its roots? Roots expand underground in the darkness - the hidden place, that the tree may stand firmly grounded through the storm. This expansion does not come without faith, time, patience and endurance, and goes entirely un-noticed and un-acclaimed,  because it takes place underground . And yet we know that this expansion is essential to the life and health of the tree.  So it is for the Church in this hour… “What is a house without its foundations?  A house built quickly- on sand    - will not stand - but the ...

Volume III ~ The Olive Press

This is the final of three volumes. As with the first two, there is repetitions - the same events but from different viewpoints - and as before, I ask that the reader be patient. You will read again much of what you have already read in volumes 1 & 2 - but there is a twist: Now, there are other nations involved: Because what happens in America will have a direct (or indirect) impact on the nations of the world. I will also write in detail about a global unraveling, that although beginning in America, will affect  the nations of the world. Volume I describes this unraveling, in many different ways. I recommend, before you read one more word of this booklet, to read the first 2 Volumes. Because their purpose is to prepare the Remnant of America for this unraveling.  None of the first pilgrims lived very long, upon entering the New World: But they were obedient to the Lord in the time He allotted them: The seed was sown into the soil of the infant nation. The harvest still re...
