God appointed the preaching of His word as the means by
which sinners might be saved. Cafe church, fresh expressions and the like are a
way of spreading a different gospel which is none. If your heart is aching because you are
caught up in these things, but you see that the truth is not being expressed,
get out from under and leave these “churches” and God will bless you as you
cling to the Bible as your only means of knowing Him. I am finding a new found
freedom in talking over essential doctrines with people God puts in my path,
since I left the Methodist church. I am
even taking these truths to cafe church in another denomination. I look to God
alone for approval and He has taken my fear of man away. How foolish to fear
man instead of God almighty, but so often that is what we do.
I have written in previous posts about disasters. In the case of Concorde, decisions by people, plus other factors were directly to blame for the event. In the case of the Penlee disaster it may have been avoided if someone had made a better choice in the time beforehand and as a consequence brave men and the ship's crew and the captain and his family died. 9/11 was certainly the result of wicked men committing a terrorist act, but even in this there was heroism notably by another Cornish man, Rick Rescorla who helped many to safety and left it too late to help himself. In situations like this we see what the human spirit is capable of both good and evil. What of disasters that come on people because of the earth restless movement of tectonic plates. Often people live near volcanoes because the land is rich and fertile and they have the chance of a better life there when the volcano is resting. We cannot blame them for that but sometimes people become complacent...
