f someone claims to be telling you the truth, but you later find out he was hiding some details from you, you would feel he/she has lied to you. This is what Pastors do when they hide some truth from their members so as not to appear harsh. If the sheep that God has placed in your care get malnourished and die a spiritual death, their blood will be on your hands
“…He saith unto him, Feed my sheep…” – John 21:16
Many years ago, I was invited as the main speaker at a three-day crusade. On the third day, I told my host that since I had spent the first two days speaking about our Christian lives here on earth, I wanted to speak on restitution, to prepare the people for Heaven. He refused, saying You want to scatter the people you have already gathered? Then he asked me to speak on prosperity. Due to ministerial ethics, I had to oblige him, so I chose (3 John 1:2) as the anchor scripture: “Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth.” Thank God for the even as; I ended up talking about heaven.
In the Redeemed Christian Church of God, I have been speaking the whole truth to the people, even the very hard truths, yet the Church keeps growing. God will draw people to the place where He is sure they will hear the truth. It is okay to preach about prosperity, blessings and other things that being a Christian avails you, but you are a liar if you never preach about sanctification, holiness, restitution and so on. When Jesus was about to leave this earth, in John 17:12 He gave a report of the people He had been discipling, saying:
“Those that thou gavest me I have kept, and none of them is lost, but the son of perdition; that the scripture might be fulfilled.”
When you are about to leave also, you will be required to give a report. What will your report be on that day?
ACTION POINT: God’s word needs no sugarcoating; preach it as it is.
BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Ezekiel 5-8
