A Temple Worshippers Mind

Now most people are wondering what this could possibly mean.  If you will allow me a moment of your time; I'll tell you.  If you grew up around or in the church you probably were indoctrinated by that church or institution.  I know people are going to kick against this, all I ask is for you to go and check the scriptures before you make a conclusion.  Over the years men and women have been taught to go to church, pay your tithes, and everything will be just fine.  I’m sorry, that’s just not how it is supposed to be.  If you think going to a church every Sunday, paying tithes, listening to your choir, and crying because you think the pastor's sermon is about you because he worked your emotions, then you have a temple worshipper’s mind that needs to be set free.  Let’s look in the scriptures for a little bit to examine what is being said.  Acts 6:12-14;  12; And they stirred up the people, and the elders, and the scribes, and came upon him, and caught him, and brought him to the council,13; And set up false witness, which said,  This man ceaseth not to speak blasphemous words against this holy place (temple), and the law:  14; For we have heard him say, that this Jesus Of Nazereth shall destroy this place,(temple=church)  and shall change the customs which Moses delivered us. 

What is being described in those scriptures is Stephen who was filled with the Holy Ghost.  The people came against him because of their temple worshippers mind.  This thing is so serious that it had people coming against the Holy Spirit of God which is worse than what they accused Stephen of.  Let’s go further.  Acts 7:48-51; Howbeit the most High dwelleth not in temples made with hands; as saith the prophet, 49; Heaven is my throne, and earth is my footstool:  what house will you build me? saith the Lord:  or what is the place of my rest? 50; Hath not my hands made all these things? 51; Ye stiff necked and uncircumcised in the heart and ears, ye do always resist the Holy Ghost:  as your fathers did so do ye.  This is what’s wrong with a lot of people today; not receiving the Holy Ghost but defending their churches/temples.  Its time for people to realize they are the Temple of God and he wants to dwell in them.  1Corinthians 3:16-17, 1Corinthians 6:19, 2Corinthians 6:14-18, Isaiah 52:11

Let’s examine another scripture.  This is from our Lord Jesus Christ.  John 2:19-21; 19; Jesus answered and said unto them, Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up. 20; Then said the Jews, Forty and six years was this temple in building, and wilt thou rear it up in three days? 21; But he spake of the temple of his body.  Once again the temple worshippers mind who had the Son Of God right there in their faces asked him about a building instead of giving reverence to the Son Of The Most High God.   There are more scriptures to support this belief.  Matthew 27:1-7 You will see where Judas gave the silver back to the priest in the Temple, and the priest said it is not lawful for to put them into the treasury, because it is the price of blood.  So to the priests it was okay to kill Jesus Christ but not okay to take blood money into the temples treasury.  Those are minds of people who worship Temples, organizations, and churches but do not worship Jesus Christ and The Most High God.  Take the time to examine yourself to see if you could possibly have a temple worshippers mind instead of someone who is truly about the Father’s business.  The objective is to witness to lost souls and bring them to Christ, not promote your church. 

I pray that this reaches whomever it is supposed to reach especially those trying to gain deeper understanding of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ and God The Father.  Read Isaiah 1: 12-20 to see exactly what The Most High God has to say about it.  In verse 16 God says to wash you, make you clean; put away the evil of your doings from before mine eyes; cease to do evil.   To get free you have to go to the altar, confess your sins, repent (turn away from your sins) and come to God.  Matthew 15: 8-9 tells us again how The Most High God is not being worshipped earnestly from people’s hearts, but in vain through doctrines and commandments of men.  Now someone will probably read this and totally miss everything that is being said.  The objective is to show the difference between someone who worships the temple and someone who is the temple of God.  Someone who is a temple worshipper goes to church every Sunday, pay tithes, sings in the choir, ushers at the door, and anything else that involves working in the church; but never truly turns from their sinful nature.  These people are led to believe these works are all that’s needed to get into Heaven, never coming to the understanding what’s really needed is to enter into a covenant relationship with Christ Jesus and God.  A person that is a temple of God is someone who is cleansed from their sins, lives the life style of a Born again Believer, always giving over to prayer and fasting and they themselves are the ones doing the work of the ministry, teaching, preaching, healing the sick, raising the dead, casting out demons and setting the captives free, and most importantly they are filled with the Holy Spirit.  I pray God directs you in the way you should go.  Remember to always check the scriptures to prove everyone and everything.        

As always,

IT IS WRITTEN.
