The nowadays God



I’m sure you are very familiar with the phrase ‘nowadays Christians’. We almost all know some of the very interesting attributes of these fans of Christ. Yes fans, not followers.

Quite disturbing is the fact that we now have ‘nowadays God’ too. Strange? Let me tell you a little about him. He’s so...o loving that he wouldn’t discipline an erring child. It’s not in his nature to get angry. Hebrews 10:31 isn’t describing him neither is Hebrews 12:29.

The nowadays god gets angry when you talk to people about hell (Mark 9:43, Matt. 13:42, Rev. 20:13-14). In fact it is an abhorration to link him with such wickedness.

Romans 12:1-2 is certainly not inspired by him....it was Apostle Paul in his zealousness that misrepresented him. Just the same way he misrepresented this wonderful god in 1 Cor. 9:26-27. He can never disqualify anyone that cares enough to serve him, no matter how they live their lives. Sadly too, he’s always in need of material things...give him money and he’ll be satisfied. Oh!!!!!

I am not sharing this with you because I believe that you are a nowadays Christian or worship the nowadays god. I only wish that we'll continue to live with the consciousness of the truth that our God is the same yesterday, today and forever.
He is truly all loving and yet HOLY! He is not asking from us anything short of what He asked the Church of old.
The Bible talks expressly about the wrath of God against the disobedient (Col. 3:6). Hell is a place of torment and it’s real (2 Peter 2:4-6).

For if God did not spare the angels who sinned, but cast them down to hell and delivered them into chains of darkness, to be reserved for judgment; and did not spare the ancient world, but saved Noah, one of eight people, a preacher of righteousness, bringing in the flood on the world of the ungodly; and turning the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah into ashes, condemned them to destruction, making them an example to those who afterward would live ungodly;

Souls are perishing right inside the Church today. Men are daily distorting the word of God in a bid to satisty their flesh.
Please, don't join the bandwagon. The Bible is still God's word and our best guide on how to live victorious in these perilous times.

Examine your ways to be sure you haven't started worshipping the nowadays god.  If you have, please make amends today... return to God. His arms are always open to receive us.
