<p>Thank you for such a humble response. Once again, you are on point and I understood where you were coming from. You are correct, but Jesus did warn us about a " falling away." On the other hand, you are one of the chosen to usher the new move of God. I want you to go to Amazon.com and go to the book section, Type in " dr (space) Willard (space) smith. You can preview my book " The New Generation of Believers, Making an Impact and Doing Things Gods Way."</p>

<p> This books shares about people like you and I who have no agenda but to see the lives of men saved by the grace of God and then watching them grow to be used for His glory. Thank you for your comments and I know that we are working for His kingdom together.</p>

<p>Brother Smith, I do apologize if I came off as being disagreeable, I did try to say I didn't understand. I was actually speaking about the ORDER of things in the churches of today. No I am not a pastor or minister, just one commenting. It is that my heart is very sadden by the order in which the church does things now. Meaning, there is very few minutes spent on scripture reading, worship and prayer. I remember when people walked in a church there were souls saved and people delivered…</p>
<p>Brother Smith, I do apologize if I came off as being disagreeable, I did try to say I didn't understand. I was actually speaking about the ORDER of things in the churches of today. No I am not a pastor or minister, just one commenting. It is that my heart is very sadden by the order in which the church does things now. Meaning, there is very few minutes spent on scripture reading, worship and prayer. I remember when people walked in a church there were souls saved and people delivered and you would see them walking the walk. Now, the order is such as coming and going the same way you came, which is very disheartening. I was speaking of the pollution, because of the order which the church has allowed any and everything. I wasn't trying to debate with you, I was stating I didn't understand the growth in what? What order? Because Jesus came to do the will of the Father and what order was that? This was my misunderstanding and I am still not understanding...hehehhe, because I don't know how we can bring order to His Kingdom, when it is His Kingdom and His will be done. You have definitely shook me out of the box on this sorry for my lack of understanding to your post. And generally I am not this out of pocket. lol</p>

<p>Thank you my sister for the response. I can appreciate what you are saying and I will never deny anyone of their opinion about something, even if it is only half the story. In my writings, I did not mention anniversaries or any of the other things you mentioned. To clarify myself, my discussion speaks of "order" not decorations.

<p>Thank you my sister for the response. I can appreciate what you are saying and I will never deny anyone of their opinion about something, even if it is only half the story. In my writings, I did not mention anniversaries or any of the other things you mentioned. To clarify myself, my discussion speaks of "order" not decorations. Your statement about bigger a church not being able to a cold does not speak of all big churches nor does my statement about smaller churches apply to them all as I have indicated. I happen to agree with you in principle and if you are progressing, the discussion was not meant for you. It was said from the heart of God through His Prophet. Let us not forget the order placed in the temple. Let us not forget the order that even Jesus himself followed. He didn't just jump into the world, there was an order of how and when it was done. If you are a Pastor, I am sure there is an " order" as to how you do things in your ministry and that is great, but the same cannot be said of all ministries. Those are the ones " we" need to reach. We are on the same team. Let's do the will of God and make excellence and order a part of His kingdom as He did in His word. Be blessed!</p> Greetings Brother, my questio…tag:abcpreachers.ning.com,2013-10-21:916966:Comment:57664612013-10-21T18:24:06.287ZMrs. Denise Joneshttps://abcpreachers.ning.com/profile/denisesldd
<p>Greetings Brother, my question is growing in what? Décor, building, protocol????? I am not understanding this. My understanding is that Jesus did teach in that area, that the house of worship was just that. All that order you are speaking of is questionable. There is POWER in the spirit of the Lord, whether it is a plain undecorated room and one can come to the Lord and be saved, delivered and healed.

<p>Greetings Brother, my question is growing in what? Décor, building, protocol????? I am not understanding this. My understanding is that Jesus did teach in that area, that the house of worship was just that. All that order you are speaking of is questionable. There is POWER in the spirit of the Lord, whether it is a plain undecorated room and one can come to the Lord and be saved, delivered and healed. All those orders have taken away from Scripture reading, Worship and Prayer. Very few minutes are spent on the most important element of the Christian walk and bombarded with all that décor, anniversaries, recognitions, committees, boards etc. that has so over EMPOWERED the church. And everybody leaves as they come, no changed lives, just rehearsals of what they are going to do next. Nobody can't even get healed from a cold at most of these churches much less their souls. I am lost for most of my words, because I always have a lot of thought, because the only reason why these churches are out of order, is because they are NOT OBEYING God. They have come up with their own way and it will never work. God say, YOU HAVE POLUTED HIS SANCTUARY....you should know the rest, if not let me know and I will give it to you.</p>
