Jesus walks into a Church (2011)...starts to move in the power of the spirit, couple of people get out of wheelchairs, and a few people recieve their sight... people are amazed and overjoyed...However after a short time the some people get very upset...Guess who they are? , yes, right first time The Pastor and his elders..." Who does this guy think he is" they mutter between themselves..and the Pastor, bless God, decides to signal to his ushers, quickly they approach this unshaven rebel, and ask him to leave. "Show some respect" they say as they escort him off the premises.. A religious lull returns over the congregation,"doesn't he know we have a service to run in here" , they whisper at the front of the Church, as they return to a form of Godliness that deny's the power... Does this remind you of any particular Characters in scripture...?
Outside the crowd gathers, five times the size of the Church as the rebel preaches the message has power and Authority, not like the ones they are used to.. as the "leaders off the Church come out and hear Him, they are infuriated, as some of "their people", are listening as well as all these people...Who are you submitted to or(by what authority do you do these things).. one of the leaders shouts out.. I do nothing unless, I first see my father doing it first..who are you submitted to, I am in Him and he is in me..
That's complete independence, your off man , they shout as they depart..
But the people remain, and many are healed ....And his followers grow....
The situation worsens, to the extend that many have joined this new sect, the Church leaders are worried and upset , and they have all lost many, of "their people", to this loose canon , who does'nt seem to want to submit himself , to anyone, except the Holy Spirit..He wont even relate to us, and we don't relate to him...
probably because we are of a totally different spirit..
They plot and plan.......
