John, I would pray for many miracles for your time given to you to grasp the circumstances and do with them what God would have you do. But, actually those things are no longer possible, so I do truly pray that the Holy Spirit of Jesus Christ fills your mouth with words. Within the planned programs and alloted times, and rehearshed segments, there is very, very little that can be done to change the way things are. So, if you don't impact lives AND TURN THE CHURCH RITUALS IN ANOTHER DIRECTION, please understand that it probably is no longer possible within that setting. Do you know what I really mean? The scripture "they have their reward" is very, veyr interesting. It's not necessarily a put down by our Lord toward those "who have their reward", but I'm sure it was spoken in great sadness and maybe a little disgust that the people involved were quite content with what they had and wanted nothing more. Remember, the church now has its reward, the entire church, and that for the most part is creating a very, very happy big bar without beer, in which there is never a dull moment to reflect, and when the silence falls, it is usually so embarrassing it is quickly boomped away by a nervous guitar player who stands reaady with the beat. No? I think I'm right. But I do pray that your particular moment impacts on those the Lord would have hear. Or, better still, impacts upon you the continuing need for reformation of the whole thing, from scratch, going back to the original instructions. I lived that once, John, for almost 6 full years. During that time my feet hardly touched the ground, and I only remember the glorious blaze of the whole experience. But, my prayers are with you.

Dear Tom : Hasten the Lords coming, Lord Jesus come soon, immediately if possible. The purpose of the gospel is to take a people out of rhe world for His name sake. Not to save the whole world..( blasphemy !! right. lets see.) Waiting and closely watching for the signs of the Lords return will give us a missionary spirit. If you delay the Lords coming----leads to self indulgence, self assertion, and self delusion. Delay the coming of Christ and you have enough time to win the whole world; hasten the coming and you will run out the door to win a good friend to Christ, or your babysitter or professor, or shoe salesman. We must always remember that the kingdom of God is constructed one sinner at a time. One house at a time, one city block at a time, one city at a time, one county at a time, one state , one nation but it starts with one on one encounters. Will you pray that we receive a fresh and new sense of urgency. Please pray also for Maranatha. We are putting plans together for an 8000 sq ft auditorium that will seat over 1,000. Our indebtedness will go from 350,000 to 1,000,000 dollars. Our sunday school will increase from 300 to 600. We plan on having separate youth services, and a mighty moving of the holy spirit to be followed by signs and wonders.Pray that the Lord will send us the harvest for as surely as Christ is alive today we will be moving dirt this spring.... In Christ.gregor
