Excerpts From GEOgram September 30, 2011: Humpty Dumpty Christianity

Posted : 1 Oct, 2011 02:23 PM

GEOgram for September 30, 2011; The link to this Yahoo Group is too long to put on Facebook. This is a quote from parts of the message for September 30, 2011: "...in a recent conversation I had with a Christian leader of some repute, he was describing his bewilderment over so much controversy within the various factions of prophecy and Biblical interpretation... he noted how the overwhelming majority of believers have no idea concerning modestly sophisticated concepts such as Arminianism, Amillennialism, Preterism, or even Historicism, Futurism, or Dispensationalism; so he blithely told me he wasn't going to take any position on prophecy."



"In other words, he had decided to take Flight, rather than Fight for the truth because with "so many fine Christians" holding to so many diverse views, he felt he was not in a position to receive the absolute truth."



"This point of view is widespread, and it is a tacit confession the person does not believe anyone actually has all the truth. In the midst of the great falling away of our time, in which the Christianized Tower of Babel speaks in so many theological dialects, its not difficult to recognize this sad state of affairs. After all, Jesus did tell us the Kingdom of God would be completely leavened after all three "measures" had been applied to the body of Christ. However, He also flatly told the believers they will know the truth (with the word know indicating an intimacy in the realm of the Spirit as that seen when Adam knew Eve his wife), and the TRUTH would set us free: "And ye shall KNOW the truth, and the truth shall make you free." (John 8: 32)



My comment: John 8: 32 is written in large letters on the lower building of the tower of the University of Texas at Austin - but the "truth" in this setting refers to man's knowledge. I will try to put a photo of the inscription on near here.



'This profound relationship with the TRUTH of Jesus Christ is not what we see in the fractured religion of our time, for the contemporary church would be more at home worshipping Humpty Dumpty than Jesus. Indeed the fictional figure was noteworthy because of the fact that he was split into so many pieces, and like the "church" of out time, not one is able to put "Humpty" back together again."



"...whenever I receive one of the barbed reproaches or rebukes which come my way on a regular basis, I recognize that at least this person still has a pulse, and i know that even an aggressive blind man may eventually find the door. The Lukewarm party, on the other hand, is the one who knows of the apostasy of so many, but will continue to dialogue with them because they believe that everyone they encounter has at least part of the puzzle, so they proceed to take what they perceive to be the "good parts" from this multitude of blind guides, and combining them all into one customized version of the Gospel, they try to put Humpty Dumpty back together again.



This is how the Beast arrived, in the form of a composite gospel with a thousand variations, but the truth is, there is only ONE Gospel. Thus, whenever I encounter that ever changing Beast, Flight is not an option, so out comes the Sword of Truth, because it looks like there's going to be a Fight.



"It was needful for me to write unto you, and exhort you that ye should earnestly contend for the faith which was ONCE delivered unto the Saints" (Jude 1:3)
