THE EARLY CHURCH

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The House Church Movement picks up momentum……


Why are people returning to the days of The Early Church………
Where ever they meet………… from in homes to grassy parks………
The mind frame is as of the Early Church………foundational root;…………

………………………WE ARE THE CHURCH…………

…… WITH THE HOLY SPIRIT OF GOD IN US…
… WE ARE THE TEMPLE………WE ARE THE CHURCH…
……………WE ARE THE LIGHT OF THE WORLD……

WHERE EVER THREE OR MORE ARE GATHERED TOGETHER IN JESUS NAME……HE IS AMONGST THEM..

Matthew 18:20
For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst of them.
1 Corinthians 5:4
In the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, when ye are gathered together, and my spirit, with the power of our Lord Jesus Christ,


I have my thoughts as to why this generation is resorting back to the Early Church………In preparation for the Tribulation Hours………

The Antichrist will not permit worship of Jesus during his rein of seven years.
Churches will be destroyed……………I imagine all Bibles may be removed from homes…….. What will believers have left? - Each other.


Believers will seek one another out……………and share the word of God……
From what they know …………what scriptures remembered will be shared and the Word of God shared amongst them………….
As the Church again will evolve from homes and freely being in a grassy outdoor park……………….. To underground……………

Underground Churches- will be factually present the U.S. just as they are now in other countries. It’s not difficult to imagine…………… considering Satan is the Antichrist- he hates God

It’s his rein on earth for seven years.
He will command all eyes on him.
As he takes the throne.

Any thoughts on this………………. Or do I sound farfetched?

CHRIST-FOLLOWERS EVERYWHERE ARE LEAVING THE CHURCH –
WHERE IS JESUS TAKING THEM?

When you sit in church on Sunday, do you ever get the feeling that something is missing? Do you long for a deeply genuine connection with God and other believers but often walk away empty and unsatisfied? You are not alone. Many church-goers are stumbling onto a path that leads out to the other side of the stained-glass window. They are finding God there and discovering a powerful truth - we are the church!

Hi,

dearest...for all who believe and are being led and learning and open,
in love and hanging in...and struggling...and growing...and sometimes
romping and stomping...it is all perfect.

I don't really have any answers to the worlds problems...yet, I know
the answer for my problems is in a person called the Truth...Jesus.
I realize everyday, that I am hopelessly lost without God in my life,
and that I am but meager in the hall of fame of saints...thank God
that God does not judge this way...yet we do...

When I am weak...He is strong...I am to humble myself in the sight
of God and He will hear me and lift me up...noone else...nothing else
matters...and yet we live in this place and time that we have to
struggle with the flesh we are in, and the spirit that we live...

This is a purifying process...praise God...go and grow in grace so they
say...

Blessings,
Signet

Praise Jesus..... Signet..............

Id, like to share a quick story of a woman that was pronounced dead, and returned to life.
Life after death experience..................
She was on an Airplane................ that was grounded due to a hijacking on board.
Passengers were being shot and thrown out the door of the jumbo jet ............. to the ground below.
It was her turn to die.................. she was shot and pushed............. as she lay on the ground motionless........... with one eye open she could see the sky..........
She said to herself............. what a beautiful sky today. The air is just perfect............ What a beautiful day to die.
She found herself in the presence of the Lord............ She said,,,,,,, for the very first time in my life...ever........I had the sensation of me.......... ME completely............... for the first time ever I did not feel like someones daughter, someone’s sister, someones wife, someones mother, someones anything......as on earth.....
I was JUST ME......... standing before the Lord..

In short................... she now knows who she is with out her name.................
She said, I am Gods Child.....I am... the daughter of a KING.

Praise Jesus for the unity of the body of Christ.......... that we may fortify one another
In His word.

One Day at a Time............Till We Get There...................

God Bless

I wonder if God may very well be using this to lay the foundation for when the church goes underground at a future time. It's much more practical to already have the foundation in place than have us try and build one once the snot hits the fan, I would think.
To look at it from a totally different angle, I stand in strong agreement with the house church movement because the rampant corruption in so many of today's megachurchs is getting to be entirely too much.

NoFool,

We are on the same page.............
God is ahead of us...............paving the way for us.............
That we do not get shock lost..................
We will be prepared.......... knowing............... we believers are the building,
We are the church...............
When we unite no matter where we are or shall be.......... God is with us.

Praise Jesus

Yes, house church now.

Read a book by Watchman Nee years ago..."Sit, kneel, Stand" profound lessons within it's simplicity.

Thanks.

I think that the house church or underground church is not going
to be an established movement of some sort...yet will be according
to the moving of the Spirit of God. Believers in many countries
are already underground...and you will never see a website...or
see a billboard...no books, just like...you will see a man carrying a
pitcher of water...follow him...ya know what I mean...

Love123,

House church...definitely. I've felt it myself.

(However, regarding the below quote, Jesus kicked Satan at the cross, and made a public humiliation of him, triumphing over him in it. There's no way seven years, or one second for that matter, will ever see Satan reign on this Earth again. Even if he does persecute the Saints, Jesus is still the one in control. Revelation is the revelation of Jesus Christ, not Satan.)



Back to the topic...I wouldn't mind finding a house church in my area.

In Christ,

Mike

I hear you. .......Amen.....................


Its a catchy idea.............. I like it to.

Hi,

I was led to a home ministry some years ago that was Messianic
Jewish believers...then I moved away...later I was led to another
home church. Both experiences were incredible...solid...family feel,
teaching, praying, fellowship...bringing food, cooking...hanging out
together in the Word and praise...like afterglow all day long...I moved
again and have not found or been led to another one...there was a
very protective and nurturing bonding of people through the Spirit
in Christ.

And eventually, I believe that we will be heading where God leads
us...following...not professing only...

Blessings,
Signet

Thank you Signet....beautiful and inspirational...
