The Evangelical Movement - Part 1

Their Own Exile

The "faith" of the evangelical has created their own "exile". By exile I mean separation. Separation is always "man sided", never God sided. It is man who "feels" separated from God. God has no experience of separation even though some scripture passages taken literally- at face value-may seem to say so. Separation is an illusion based on emotion, which itself is founded on fear; a "consciousness of sin", and is the result of Eve's choice in the garden, and which takes place IN THE MIND. The evangelical creates his own exile/separation, by holding a "split" mentally, causing him to live his life as though he was/is "down here" and God/Jesus is "up there". This is the evangelical's state or condition of being-a "suspension between heaven and earth" and is the fulfillment of scripture which says, "as a man thinks in his heart so is he" and Jesus' many times saying, "according to your faith be it unto you". According to how you see -you are.

Have Run Out of Breath

Jesus talked about 10 virgins-five wise and five foolish. The subject of the passage was oil-the supply or lack thereof. Oil of course as most know is spirit. The spirit is as breath or air. Spirit then is God's breath or God's breathing.

Evangelicals rely on "christian celebrities" for their oil and by doing so run out of it. They need the latest most up to date how-to book, tape lecture, conference, rendezvous, praise/worship meeting/service, in order to keep them going so that they can feel all goosey-bumpy-touchy-feely and "experience the presence of God". Their reliance upon these things shows that they have run out of breath (oil) and are of those five foolish virgins who are in flesh not spirit.

Oil must be used. The more you draw on what you are given, the more you have/are given, and the more of that you use, the more you are given and on and on. The more you rely on others for oil, the less oil you have. This oil/spirit is also faith.

"God has given to every man the measure of faith" - Rom 12:3 -

and also it is

"the power of God (to bring you...) unto salvation" - 1Cor 1:18 -

In the natural, babies are nursed only a short period of time and then are weaned and BEGIN TO FEED THEMSELVES. Evangelicals are staying in babyhood their whole lives. They never grow up. As long as they rely on others they never will and the "christian celebrities" they rely on will also dry up and continue "ministering" in flesh and not spirit.

"For there will be a season when the healthful teaching they will not endure, but according to their own covetings (desires) will unto themselves heap up teachers because they have an itching ear, and from the truth indeed their ear will they turn away, while unto stories will they turn themselves aside" - 2Tim 4:3-4 - (Rotherham)

Other teachers are the "breasts" which feed baby christians for a short period UNTIL THEY FIND THEIR OWN INNER TEACHER (oil supply)WITHIN THEMSELVES. This is God's way...as in nature, so in spirit.
