As long as men are obsessed with building their own kingdom, then we will be a dog forever chasing its tail. For if we are obsessed with anything other than Christ, then we are possessed by the stuff of earth. This makes me think of Hebrews 3 where Moses and Christ are faithful before the Father. Perhaps it is not a matter of tearing down the old foundation. Perhaps it is a matter of walking away from every leader who has not demonstrated Kingdom values. Perhaps God is waiting for us to pull our support away from the faithless leaders so that He may raise up the leaders he has made ready??
I so agree with that. How do we build a foundation? Isn't it through fellowship? And hearing teaching, preaching and doctrine on foundation? But people want to take right teaching and "adjust it" to ways they can call THEIR own! That says to me that we don't know His Personality that well! It is the interconnecting of the sincere focused Body that will mature and grow it! It's carnality that says, "Me! Me!" We can THINK we know a lot of things, but is it working like He says?
It's just proof of how far Satan's infiltrated every sphere of cultural influence. All the sexual scandals behind revealed, is why I say faith is not religion, it's a relationship.
