Just in case you have been wondering why some people advocating less commitment, and the loosening or abandonment of standards? Well, at least one of them has decided to reveal the heretofore hidden truth of the matter and here it is. There are those in the forefront of the effort who no longer believe in overcoming as we have always taught it. That is, they no longer believe in the complete loss of our sin nature. They define the being an overcomer as simply being someone who is living above wanton sin. They also deny belief in the goal of producing a Church in perfect order, with a perfect standard, and having a perfect unity of the faith concerning doctrine. They have lost these two primary elements of the vision of this Body of Christ. They are not of us, that is other than being in fellowship with us; all that remains is for them to go out from among. I suggest that if you doubt the validity of what I am saying that you take them to task by requiring a direct answer to the questions, (A) Do you believe that the ultimate goal of Holy Ghost Christians in The Body Of Christ is to completely mature into the divine image of Christ having completely divested themselves of the sin nature? (B) Do you believe that our collective goal is to restore the Church in a perfect standard of measurements of right and wrong, with a perfect order, teaching a perfect doctrine, so that it is qualified to judge and harvest this world? Don't let them hedge, require an honest and complete answer from them, a yes or no. If they cannot answer yes to both of these questions they do not have the vision of this body.
One of their spokesmen, someone in the Warren Michigan Assembly, writing under the pseudonym, WyldKardde, has a blog where he proudly, and very articulately, (with good words and fair speeches, Romans 16: 17-18) espouses these thoughts. I suggest that if you really want to know the agenda of the liberalization movement among us that you study his words carefully. I say this, and I say this emphatically; If this group of men and Assemblies go in the direction espoused by this man and his fellow travellers I will cease to believe it to be the body of Christ, lose all confidence in it having any vision of what God is doing in the earth today, and cease to gather with it with any regularity. My revelation has not changed from what was delivered to me almost forty years ago, and I will not follow lesser gift, and no gift vain talkers into perdition. As for me these subjects were settled before I got here and are not up for discussion. I left Babylon, and I will never go back. I'll not build again the thing which I destroyed; I not make myself a transgressor, Galatians 2:18. If the blind lead the blind they will all fall into the ditch. This way, this way of holiness is the way the Lord showed me to go, and I will walk therein.
