A Wake Up Call to the Church

The following is taken from "When Heaven Invades Earth" by Bill Johnson:

"In my own pursuit of God, I often became preoccupied with ME! It was easy to think that being constantly aware of my faults and weakness was humility. It's not! If I'm the main subject, talking incessantly about my weaknesses, I have entered into the most subtle form of pride. Repeated phrases such as, "I'm so unworthy," become a nauseating replacement for the declaration of the worthiness of God. By being sold on my own unrighteousness, the enemy has disengaged me from effective service. It's a perversion of true holiness when introspection causes my spiritual self-esteem to increase, but my effectiveness in demonstrating the power of the gospel to decrease. True brokenness causes complete dependency of God, moving us to radical obedience that releases the power of the gospel to the world around us"

Back to reality now!!! (this is me, not Bill Johnson) WAKE UP AND STOP BEING A BUNCH OF PANSIES!!! STOP CRITICIZING THOSE WHO ALREADY KNOW THEY ARE NOTHING WITHOUT CHRIST AND HAVE CHOSEN TO WALK IN HIS POWER BY LETTING GO OF THEIR WEAKNESS AND EMBRACING HIS SPIRIT!!! UNLESS YOUR HUMILITY IS PRODUCING THE WORKS OF CHRIST AND DEMONSTRATING THE KINGDOM, IT'S NOT HUMILITY!!! 

The world doesn't need your weakness and so called humility, they need Christ and His Kingdom in you!!!

Think about it:)
