I have divorced myself from the institutional church. It's like I cut the cord that shackled me and now I am free from the preaching that continues to ignore the peril our nation is living through. These "churches" are afraid to speak out! The true Church of Jesus Christ is growing outside of the framework of denominations that harbor man-made, systematic and legalistic traditions preaching for their own survival instead of speaking out against the evils inflicting our nation/world. I'm done.

It’s vital that the church find her tongue now! We must obey God rather than man, proclaiming truth with love, as watchmen on the wall. As Metaxas wrote, “not to speak an uncomfortable truth to someone who needs to hear it – and giving the excuse that we are loving them – is not to love them but to harm them.”
What are some of these uncomfortable truths, injustices, and atrocities that preachers and Christians should be compassionately and lovingly sharing?
The atrocity of unborn children being murdered and their body parts sold for profit. The injustice of very young children being deceived regarding sexuality from schools, entertainment, and the culture at large. The atrocity of teens and young adults having their bodies mutilated due to believing the lies from sexual activists found in our schools and culture. The unjust attack on the sacredness of marriage, life, and the Word. The atrocities that are led to by the seditious socialistic and communistic ideas that are being pushed through nearly every American institution – ideas that oppress the poor, rob us of our freedoms, and attempt to dethrone God. The injustice of those unconstitutionally held and mistreated, like J-6ers. The injustice of silencing those who would speak out against government lines, particularly COVID-19, its mandates, and “vaccines.” And the atrocity of a government forcing/coercing people to take an experimental gene-altering drug, especially with early reported negative effects and unknown long-term effects.
The church must find its tongue, speaking the truth WITH grace, regarding these and other issues. They are not simply political or cultural – they are Biblical and we are called to stand fast for the sake of Christ. We aren’t standing for ourselves; we are standing for Christ and for our fellow man. To the extent that we are heavy on either grace or truth – to the diminishing of the other – we are not presenting Christ or His gospel accurately –may the Holy Spirit guard us from either extreme.
