Proverbs 14:12 There is a way which seemeth right unto a man, but the end thereof are the ways of death.

Many believers in Jesus Christ are on a road that will eventually lead them to Hell. These professing followers of Jesus Christ are unaware and have deceived themselves into believing that they are okay in their relationship with the Lord.

They make excuses for their sins. They make excuses as to why they don’t have to live a life that is a living sacrifice to the Lord. They will continue to claim to God’s promises and covenants but will not evaluate their own lives to see if their will lines up with scripture.

The deception of compromise in the House of God has caused His presence to cease. The unbelief of His power has restricted the Holy Ghost from moving in our lives, and week after week the congregations return to the church obedient to a religion and disobedient to their God.

They are content without the presence of God moving in their lives. They are asleep to the reality of the Lords soon return, and His impending judgment that is underway, while millions continue to enter into that wide gate that leads to destruction. Many are the lost souls that are under the bondage of sin. Addiction, infirmities, and death to mankind isn’t even enough to cause a stirring in the hard hearts of the modern day believer.

James 4:17 Therefore to him that knoweth to do good, and doeth it not, to him it is sin.

Luke 12:47 And that servant, which knew his lord’s will, and prepared not himself, neither did according to his will, shall be beaten with many stripes.

Everyday is a new day to reach out to the lost but yet we continue to ignore the cries from hell. We know the outcome of all things but refuse to open our eyes and our hearts to the reality of the truth. We will continue in our slothfulness towards repentance, and picking up our cross, and following Jesus.

Just look at the headlines! Persecution, fear, murder, terrorism, abortion, fornication, adultery, molestation, suicide, and addiction. All this because of our refusal of the truth.

Matthew 7:21-27

21 ¶ Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven. 22 Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works?

23 And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity. 24¶ Therefore whosoever heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them, I will liken him unto a wise man, which built his house upon a rock: 25 And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell not: for it was founded upon a rock. 26And every one that heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them not, shall be likened unto a foolish man, which built his house upon the sand: 27 And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell: and great was the fall of it.

You may think that you have entered into the narrow gate that leads to life, and you may have! But for many of you either you have never entered into that narrow way or you may have wandered of that narrow way and found a new way that is a much easier path that is filled with excuses for your sin and reasons to continue therein, but I warn you of this false security of never being at odds with the Lord or eternally separated from Him through your sins.

Psalms 66:18 If I regard iniquity in my

Matthew 7:13-14 13 Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat: 14 Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it.

We’re in a new year. All things from 2015 are behind us now, and we have once again returned to the Cross Roads. We have an excuse and a chance to start all over again, start new, and give this year to the Lord Jesus Christ and make Him King and Lord of our lives once and for all, with all that we have.

No more wavering back and forth like a ship tossed out on a sea. No more lukewarmness like the hypocrites, but standing firm on the foundations that are provided in the Word of God and resisting the desires of the flesh.

The time has come for us to stand against sin and if that means we have to stand alone in this world then that’s what it means.

We have the Holy Ghost of God that we are sealed with and Jesus said he would never forsake us. Although the enemy would like to make us feel like we’re alone, we are not! There is a Heavenly Host that is encamped around the Saints of God!

Psalms 34:7 The angel of the LORD encampeth round about them that fear him, and delivereth them.

Job 1:10 Hast not thou made an hedge about him, and about his house, and about all that he hath on every side? thou hast blessed the work of his hands, and his substance is increased in the land.

We are created to worship and serve God. Jesus Christ is the Lord of all and is due our lives filled with sacrifices, and the laying down of the carnal wants and desires of this world, because of what He has done for us through the work that was completed at the cross.

1 John 2:2 And he is the propitiation for our sins: and not for ours only, but also for the sins ofthe whole world.

Through the fall of man in the Garden of Eden The Lord has made a plan to reconcile mankind back to him.

When Adam and Eve gave into temptation it gave Satan a legal right to have dominion over mankind.

Through direct disobedience to Gods warning, Adam and Eve severed the freedom from sin and bondage and became slaves to sin.

Genesis 3:17-19 17 And unto Adam he said, Because thou hast hearkened unto the voice of thy wife, and hast eaten of the tree, of which I commanded thee, saying, Thou shalt not eat of it: cursed is the ground for thy sake; in sorrow shalt thou eat of it all the days of thy life; 18 Thorns also and thistles shall it bring forth to thee; and thou shalt eat the herb of the field; 19 In the sweat of thy face shalt thou eat bread, till thou return unto the ground; for out of it wast thou taken: for dust thou art, and unto dust shalt thou return.

Moses was then called to free the Israelites from the bondage of Egypt. God then gave Moses laws and decrees for His people to live by. Not to make heavy burdens on His people but to keep them from heartaches, sickness, death, and possible separation from Him eternally.

God gave Moses the 10 Commandments which are almost totally disregarded by mankind today, and even ignored by many Christians today.

Galatians 4:3-7 3 Even so we, when we were children, were in bondage under the elements of the world: 4 But when the fulness of the time was come, God sent forth his Son, made of a woman, made under the law, 5 To redeem them that were under the law, that we might receive the adoption of sons. 6 And because ye are sons, God hath sent forth the Spirit of his Son into your hearts, crying, Abba, Father. 7 Wherefore thou art no more a servant, but a son; and if a son, then an he

My interview on my wife’s podcast “A Virtuous Mother Podcast with Sharon Roller” speaking on turning our hearts to our king.

16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.

A message of hope for those that need it.

We have turned our hearts away from God and in a way have become gods ourselves in our thinking. Many Christians today have wondered off the paths of righteousness and have consumed the ideals of the world. We are indulging in the world’s sinful ways and have grown accustom to their methods.

We invite the ways of the world into the church with the attitude that this will bring the world in and everyone will be saved. The truth is that the world and the ways of it are carnal and destructive, and contrast to the holy things of God.

John 15:19 If ye were of the world, the world would love his own: but because ye are not of the world, but I have chosen you out of the world, therefore the world hateth you.

The world will hate you if you are truly seeking the Lord’s will in your life, but if you’re compromising the world will find a place for you.

Many are claiming to be  believers and followers of Jesus Christ but have forsaken Him in their lifestyles. Many Churches have brought in the things that were once considered to be unholy but now are believed to be the ways that bring the lost into the church.

So we say forget holiness and we make excuses for the sin that has been allowed in the church and the power of God has left because God will not compromise the sin in your life or in His Church.

Man’s ideals without seeking the knowledge of God have never won a soul to the to the Kingdom of Heaven. If salvation comes it’s only by the power of the Holy Ghost. Our manipulating methods and denial of the truth are the evidence against us and we are powerless without God Holy Spirit moving within our live and in the church.

We refuse the truth we are deceiving ourselves, and playing with fire.

Leviticus 10:1-5  1 And Nadab and Abihu, the sons of Aaron, took either of them his censer, and put fire therein, and put incense thereon, and offered strange fire before the LORD, which he commanded them not. 2 And there went out fire from the LORD, and devoured them, and they died before the LORD. 3 Then Moses said unto Aaron, This is it that the LORD spake, saying, I will be sanctified in them that come nigh me, and before all the people I will be glorified. And Aaron held his peace. 4 And Moses called Mishael and Elzaphan, the sons of Uzziel the uncle of Aaron, and said unto them, Come near, carry your brethren from before the sanctuary out of the camp. 5 So they went near, and carried them in their coats out of the camp; as Moses had said. 

The Lord will not allow strange fire in His presence. You might say well Dan why haven’t we seen this type of judgment in the churches if they’re so corrupt. I say open your eyes to the truth where is the power of God moving today? Where do you see alcoholics, drug addicts, fornicators, and idolaters running to the altar of God seeking repentance? Do you see this in the house of God today? Why do we find it so easy to hop on the internet and get on facebook, or watch cable television or to smoke and drink without the conviction of the Holy Ghost? Where is the fear and reverence for a Holy God?

We have become preoccupied by the sinful lifestyles that we are comfortable with. We no longer want to hear the truth spoken. Oh sure we’ll gather at the church but to put up with a convicting message from the pulpit to convict our conscience? No way, and no thanks!

Matthew 24:37-39  37 But as the

Matthew 10:38 And he that taketh not his cross, and followeth after me, is not worthy of me.

Millions of people today are unaware of the endgame consequence that is rapidly approaching. The sleeping church of Laodiceans are totally blind to what is coming on the earth. Countless are deaf and dumb to the iniquity that has been allowed into the houses of God. Christians have become sedated spiritually and many hearts have become hard and callused.

Many once Holy Ghost filled churches and congregants have been overwhelmed by the obstacles and distractions of the world. The Armor of God has been replaced by the gadgets and trends of today’s world and piece by piece the armor of God has been forsaken and lost and disregarded.

We have to wait on the Lord at all cost because if it’s just our flesh acting out what we want then it will never be right unless it’s God’s way.

Psalm 27:14 Wait on the LORD: be of good courage, and he shall strengthen thine heart: wait, I say, on the LORD.  

Many Christians around the world are fighting the good fight daily continuing in the faith of the Lord Jesus Christ. Persecution is coming to America without the majority of believers even realizing what is soon to come.

Reality has escaped the modern day Laodicean type Christian described in the book of Revelation.

Revelation 3:15-20 

15 I know thy works, that thou art neither cold nor hot: I would thou wert cold or hot.

16 So then because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spue thee out of my mouth.

17 Because thou sayest, I am rich, and increased with goods, and have need of nothing; and knowest not that thou art wretched, and miserable, and poor, and blind, and naked:

18 I counsel thee to buy of me gold tried in the fire, that thou mayest be rich; and white raiment, that thou mayest be clothed, and that the shame of thy nakedness do not appear; and anoint thine eyes with eyesalve, that thou mayest see.

19 As many as I love, I rebuke and chasten: be zealous therefore, and repent.

20 Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me.

Many self professing Christians today especially here in America are lukewarm, compromised and hell bound because their lack of repentance and sincerity of being convicted by the Holy Ghost.

This is a result from not only those who are not preaching the truth in the pulpits but because of Christians choosing to compromise God’s Word and His required lifestyle of holiness.

1 Peter 1:16 Because it is written, Be ye holy; for I am holy.

If we would only turn off the entertainment to sit in silence and let our minds be free of all the corrupted television news broadcast and internet garbage that has dulled down our spiritual alignment with the Holy Ghost we would be able to discern the condition that our families and others are operating in.

Jesus is knocking and we are dead asleep because of our entertained and occupied lives. We have grown tired of looking and waiting for His return.

We think that our relationship is okay with God but we have not put Him first in our walk we are not living a life that is set aside for His ways and His will.

The scripture inspired by the Holy Ghost to Paul in Romans 12:1-2

Romans 12:1-2

1 I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service.

2 And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.

We are to be living Holy and we are to be renewing our minds by reading His Word not watching You Tube videos that talk of dreams and visions by whoever but by getting alone with Him in prayer and in the Word.

It’s time to wake up Christians and turn off the worlds television, music and books and get alone with the Son of God Jesus Christ and find out who he really is and who is Father really is and to forsake all the things of the world.

We are in the final minutes of the last days and many are literally putting your soul on the line for the things of this world.

Scripture:

Psalm 33:18-20

Proverbs 4:19 The way of the wicked is as darkness: they know not at what they stumble.

Those who refuse the Gospel of Jesus Christ choose a life of complete rebellion of the truth. They have turned their backs on the Creator who has given undisputable evidence of His existence.

The world has chosen to move forward with out God in their lives and has placed mankind and false gods on the throne of their hearts.

The multitudes of Christians today have denied the true living God and have created a god of pleasure and entertainment. A god who doesn’t judge them, condemn them or convict them.

They have formed their own opinions of who God is and have given themselves over to lies and deception of the truth.

There are haunted houses all across the United States filled with the walking dead.

Those who call themselves Christians are piled into these so called houses of God that are haunted by the ideal of a time that once was but now has passed away.

They’re the ghost of the past of once Holy Ghost filled churches on fire for the Word of God armed with the boldness of the gospel but are now become forsaken graveyards with lifeless congregants who wander the pews walking in a spiritual slumber. Faith has withered away and the great delusion of the truth has sealed the hard hearts of many believers.

The church has been infected with the disease of compromise. Rhigamortis has set in and the body is decaying. Although everything seems to be okay with the entertaining worship service and the delusion that God is pleased with our pathetic attempt to serve Him with our own ideals.

We have forsaken the path that leads to eternal life to the path that leads straight to the gaits of Hell. We hide in our churches/morgues as the outside world passes by and hears the ghostly whispers of a lifeless religion we have made peace with.

I say lifeless because that’s how we see it. We are okay with the status that we are at in the church. We’re fine without the power of the Holy Ghost. We’re fine without the presence of God in our congregations. Besides there is no conviction of our sins! We are free to sin at will. We can do our own will and just ask God to forgive us when our conscience feels guilty and then we’re okay to continue in our worldly activities.

The conviction is no longer affecting us because we’ve become spiritually dead. So we have become the walking dead. No light in us and no power.

You might say Dan your being very pessimistic! But I say to you what about the lost world? What about those who are in despair? What about the alcoholic? What about the drug addict? What about the SRAs? What about the aborted babies? What about the WORD of God?
