1 The Church You Attend Matters Alot If You Must Make Heaven
In this perilous timing, it might seem difficult and very tough to locate a genuine bible believing church. Hence, through this message I sincerely believe the Lord shall widen your knowledge on how to behold a genuine bible believing church within or around your neighborhood.
Though, it might seem hectic in locating or identifying a genuine bible believing church due to the adulterated sermon been ministered today in most church. Nevertheless, the degree in seeking for discernment spirit of the Holy Ghost in seeking out for a genuine church can’t be over-ridden because Holy Ghost is our great comforter and author of the church. He is the only person who is in rightful position of leading us to the genuine house of God for fellowship.

However, before you determined to seek out for genuine churches for fellowship, you must first embraced the full fellowship of the Holy Ghost into your life. Likewise, pray unto God to overwhelmed you with the spirit of discernment and ask him to leads and direct your foot step to His church where He (God) is, where they preach and practice the truth and where His holiness pressence dwells.
During this quest, you must never channeled your mind in mega-city congregation or large cathedra mega building structure as a genuine gathering of the saints, because the genuine church which you dreameth to fellowship might be 5 block ahead of you or abit far from your location.
But due to human perceptiveness you ignorantly refused to behold such a glorious place. Probably, maybe the street was tattered, bushy and filled with pot-holes. Perhaps, only few members, the members not dressing to look sexy or in worldly standard, the church might look so dirty and unkempt without digital instruments of worship etc… This erroneous mindset of finding a good holiness church might beguiled/hinder you from identifying such a glorious place, as a genuine church of God.
How To Identify A Genuine Bible Believing Church
- The pastor must be conscious of soul winning, instead of accumulating multitudes of soul without heavenly zeal.The pulpit messages must be focus in heavenly glory; such as rapture, repentance of sin, consequence of sin and danger of hell fire, immersion baptism and baptism of the Holy Ghost, sanctification, revival and awaken of brethren unto evangelism and heavenly zeal. Not the mirracle, breakthrough, aim high, sowing seed and prosperity messages we see many fake ministers preaching today, in almost 99.9% of churches worldwide today. Who are busy preaching what people like to hear, building up fake christians and preparing souls to hell instead of heaven.
- The church must also enforce restitution and discipline of compromised brethren. There must be godly fearfulness in modesty dressing in the church especially within the women folks. The church doctrine must abolished every form of ungodly dressing, women trousers, earrings, jewelries, ornaments, necklace, wedding rings, mini skirt, exposure of women seducing armpit, breast cleavage and laps and ensuring of women head covering.
- The pastor zeal must focus on gathering few dedicated brethren to heaven rather than laying input in inspiration and motivational messages, earthly riches and glory in quest of leading multitude to hell.
NOTE; Operating Mobile Phone In The Church As Bible Is Sinful In The Sight Of God, Guilty Of This; Will License You Straight To Hell Or Be Left Behind After Rapture.
The Condition Of Today Church
Now if you look at today’s church, it is so painful that Satan have succeeded in hijacking and defiling several Church of God, by replacing bible with mobile phone, ipads and Laptops which is totally wrong. It is also wrong that many believers are using their mobile phone to make calls during church service, doing that as a believer is sinful in the sight of God and will lead you straight to Hell.
How can you be making calls and the message of God is going on, that shows how disrespectful you are. A brother sometimes ago, attended a Sunday service in a church, so when the pastor was quoting the bible verse, a young man on his side was using ipads to read bible while message was going on. Later on, he decided to whats-app a message to a friend but the brother rebuked him that such disrespectful attitude is wrong.
As a true believer always learn from the early disciples, when going to church carry your bibles, not ipads and phones. I am not saying that having ipad is a sin, yes it is good to have ipads, androids and phones but using it during church fellowship is sinful. It is the idea of Satan to distract you from serving God, even some pastors use ipads and laptops to preach in the church and that practice is totally wrong and abominable before God.
If you are a pastor using Ipads and laptop to preach in the Church that practice is very wrong. Yes Laptop is good, you can use laptops or ipads to prepare a message, yes phones, ipads and laptops can be used to preach the gospel on facebook, whats-app, telling people about Jesus, sharing the gospel of heaven and hell testimonies but not to be used inside the church to preach or to be used as bible, it is very aborminable and it acctracts the jeleous anger of God.
Also you can use Laptop to record the Pastor’s message, just like the instrumentalist use computer to do so. Yes that is recommendable but using it to replace bible in the church is very wrong. When a pastor calls a sermon use your bible, not ipads as bible, lest it will distract you from following the ways of God.
As a pastor, if your church member is using ipad to quote the bible scripture, please correct them and encourage them to use their bible. If you want to use your mobile phone, it must be after the close of the service. Moreover, many Christian uses their mobile phones and laptops to win souls for Christ in social media but ignorantly losing their own soul to the devil through that same device due to ignorant.
Now let me ask you as a believer proclaiming that you are born again, when last did you preach to that girl you are chatting love messages with on social media? When last did you share the gospel of Jesus Christ to that girl, instead of preaching to her about repentance, you are busying chatting love message to her, remember you know very well that one day you will give account of that soul you luring into sin.

Today, many Christians are using their phones to lure others to sinfulness, instead of winning souls to Christ. It’s the idea of the devil to deceive them to hell, no time to win souls, but they can sit down 24 hours to preach and encourage some people about sex, worldliness, worldly parties, listening to worldly music etc.
If you die in such pathetic condition, it will surely lead straight to Hell fire. Its better you repent and win souls to Jesus. Stop using your phones to make calls during Church meetings, it’s wrong and that is sinful before Jesus Christ. But instead switch off your mobile device while in church fellowship or put it in silent mode.
Hence, also avoid replacing it with your bible, when you want to preach use your bible to preach to somebody but when you want to preach online using the internet you can use your phone to do that or laptop, but not while rendering service in church fellowship. You must respect the Presence of God.
The Fallen Church
The Devil’s Playground
It amazes me today to see so many Church buildings being built. So many pastors being called; so many sermons being preached; so many prayers being prayed and yet people cannot seem to overcome sin and their problems keep increasing every single day, especially people who profess to be Christians.
An Evangelist said: After series of prayers, he asked the Lord why all this are happening. And that was when He began with him on the journey to “THE FALLEN CHURCH”. He said to him “I see my children gathered in churches to pray against the devil “Lucifer” and all they do is to scream “Holy Ghost Fire, Fire Fire” as many times as they can. They got home tired and exhausted and yet nothing happens. You see, it’s because they don’t really know who this devil is, let alone how to overcome him”
My son, do you remember what Lucifer did in heaven some time ago? “he couldn’t answer” You see, the devil is not scared because you scream Fire-Fire-Fire. This is someone who was able to persuade and pervert 1/3 of my angels who were with me. Do you know what angels are made of?
Psalm 104:4 “Who maketh his angels spirits; his ministers a flaming fire” My angels are made spirits and are covered in flames of fire, yet Lucifer was able to corrupt their Divine nature and convert them into demons. And my children on earth think they can overcome him by just screaming fire? Even those who were made with fire fell to his schemes, how much more you who are flesh and blood?
My son, I will show you how to overcome the enemy so you can save MY CHURCH and other souls hungry for my salvation. You see, the strategy of the enemy will never change. In the Garden of Eden, he used what was around man to destroy what was in man.
When the devil attacks your finances, it’s not because he needs your money, because Lucifer doesn’t spend money in the dark world. He doesn’t attack your marriage because he wants to marry your spouse; he doesn’t attack your car because he wants a new ride. You see, when the devil attacks any of these things, it’s because he has realized your heart is connected to them. So if he can touch them, then he can touch your heart and destroy you. The devil will always use what is around you to get what is in you.
But every man is tempted, when he is drawn away of his own lust, and enticed. (James 1:14)
But Christians today are more mindful of what is around them, more than what is in them. My children are more scared of losing money than losing their soul and that is why they can never overcome the devil, instead of setting their heart on fire through purity and righteousness. They are rather praying to set fire around their business, money, cars, future.
It’s a pity seeing my Church walk in deception. They have believed in this deception that there was God the Father who was always angry at sin, and there is Jesus, the Son who also now smiles at sin and says. As long as you have your church’s membership record intact, you have a fat wallet to keep your pastor always smiling, you have a few bible verses you can memorize, a nice voice to sing about me and a deep voice to preach me, you can do anything you want and live anyhow.
My Church is in trouble. But I will still save those who want to be saved. So go and spread this message to all men, delivering them from the venom of Sin. Tell them to be more mindful of the sins that corrupt the soul, than the witch that stole their money, because if a witch can steal your money, it’s because you have first corrupted your soul through sin”
After this ministration from the Lord, I (The evangelist) also felt pity for the Church. If the devil is able to capture your heart by making you live in sin, he has power over your physical materials. Proverbs 4:23 says “Keep your heart with all diligence, for out of it are the issues of life” Keeping something diligently is more like guarding it from any external influence but unfortunately, the Church today is seriously guarding physical materials and we have sold our soul so cheap to the devil.
That’s why we don’t care living in sin and immorality but we are scared of not getting a marriage partner, or not making a lot of money. We scream Holy Ghost fire-fire-fire, while our heart is as cold as winter. We have neglected the messages that prepare people for the second coming of Jesus Christ and all we talk about is how to make money and be prosperous on earth.
And the more the messages of Repentance, Holiness, Fear of God, Heaven and Hell are neglected, the more sin increases, and the more sin increases, the more the Churches fall before Satan. 1 Samuel 12:20-25 And Samuel said to the people “Do not be afraid; you have done all this evil. Yet do not turn aside from following the Lord, but serve the Lord with all your heart. And do not turn aside after empty things that cannot profit or deliver, for they are empty.
For the Lord will not forsake his people, for his great name’s sake, because it has pleased the Lord to make you a people for himself. Moreover, as for me, far be it from me that I should sin against the Lord by ceasing to pray for you, and I will instruct you in the good and the right way. Only fear the Lord and serve him faithfully with all your heart. For consider what great things he has done for you. But if you still do wickedly, you shall be swept away, both you and your king”
The fallen Church will only be mindful of building an extravagant building with broken souls living in it. That is reason why there are many Christians speaking in tongues in Church today and yet addicted to all kinds of secret sins, and they will tell you “We are living under grace” as if grace is a license to sin.

As i have always said; there are two members in every church–The Observers and the participant. Are you an observer in your church or a participant? It’t time to work because there is no much time available.
