Some leave church because they are bitter.
Some leave because of sin.
Some leave because they finally wake up and see the emptiness
or the phony showmanship.
Some just grow weary and leave.
There are many reasons, but our hope is that we are speaking to those of you who are at some stage of what we and others have been through and your hearts desire is to follow Jesus... like you did at the first.
Why this website?
To help you find God again at home with no hired pastor, choir, "service", pulpit, or offering plate. Our message then is:
1. to point out how the church world is in great apostasy
2. To compare modern church practices with what the church of scripture did and said as they obeyed the teachings of Jesus.
3. To point God's people away from traditions of men andbackto the scriptures.
4. To help us believe and do what the church of scripture did.
See this shocking list of common traditions passed off as Christian.
In order to understand what the church WAS, we must filter out the leaven, traditions, and worldly thinking that has blurred, obfuscated, and obscured what the House of the Lord is. To restore us to what was before,
we must understand what this leaven is that defiled what we thought was Christian.
We love God, love His people, and love the church which is the body of Christ and have forsaken secular work in order to serve the Lord by serving His people.
ONLY ONE CovenantOurs is better than the Old and all others.
It is an amazing, wonderful, superior, and eternal covenant. It does FOR us what NO OTHER COVENANT has or can do. Do you know what it freely gives us?
People are moved, swayed, and impressed by the flesh.
Mature saints recognize the gift of God in people and true anointing.
Jesus was not about showmanship, religious Titles, or controlling people.
He came to set captives free.
Tithing is NOT New Testament
Did you notice that a nice emotion-moving song service is a great way to prepare for the offering plate to be passed?
Have you ever questioned why the songs THEN the plate is passed?
Where in scripture did the apostles or Jesus ordain the "order of service" commonly employed in the church? -No dear one, it is NOWHERE in scripture. However, it has become institutionalized psychological manipulation and the typical congregant (like us) dutifully play their role. Tithing is a false doctrine, easily dis-proved once you see the truth.
None of the apostles of Jesus ever told any church or saint to tithe,
none of them reminded others to or testified of paying 10% to anyone or God.
God shows the way of truth in our FREE book, "The Tithe That Binds". Order here.
More AMAZING articles are below regarding tithing, the corruptible "leaven" that has spoiled many good men.
Withhold the unscriptural tithes, salary, or church paycheck and you will soon find if they are really serving God.
Judgment on the USA NOW In Progress Today or tomorrow???
The USA has wrecked and poisoned the lands of many countries worldwide. We have bombed, used toxic radioactive munitions, chemicals, and destroyed the living environment of millions in dozens of nations who never attacked us. Yugoslavia, Iraq, Afghanistan, Viet Nam, to name a few. The USA has made millions and millions of people homeless over the past 60 years.
We have exported the pollution of Hollywood movies, music, and TV worldwide as well as abortions and moral depravity. The financial corruption at all levels of American life are well documented and the American church has polluted the world with false gospels of prosperity, tatooed evangelists, and gloried men in their well-paid ministries. Skulls and death symbols are fashionable.. Rory's Radio Interview with Georgeann Hughes "The Byte Show"6-27-10
Reasons for judgment upon the church-USA.
Christians and PoliticsDoes our country's future depend on right politics? the 501c3 Patriotic Church Is your church 501c3 registered? WHY judgment? The USA is falling. a MUST READ! it begins at the house of God when the church departs from the Way of the Lord...It includes open borders, Obamacare, and more.
The divorce rate in American Christianity is equal to non-Christians, secret abortions and the curse of out-of-wedlock birth is also common in the church. Christian men struggle with porn addiction, rich preachers are an abomination to God and contrary to His Word, the average Christian spends more time with the television, sports, and movies than they do with God and His Word.
Most Christians today do not even speak Gods' Word, and the desire for comforts and material GAIN take precedence in the lives of most church goers.
Judgment is here now and the typical Christian goes shopping and looks for a dubious rapture to avoid hard times and persecution. .

The Curse of the Lord
was put upon the world, a nation, a state, a city, a family, and an individual that errs from the way of the Lord.
Included is sickness, broken relationships, "accidents", personal enemies, debt, loss, afflictions, even aliens coming across the borders.
The curse was created to correct and chasten, and turn us back to blessing, health, peace, and deliverance. Like a fluttering sparrow or a darting swallow, an undeserved curse will not landon its intended victim. -Prov. 26:2 2
Ps. 39:10 Remove thy stroke away from me: I am consumed by the blow of thy hand.
(11 When thou with rebukes do correct man for iniquity
Did you ever wonder why so many Christians are sick with cancer and other disease?
We did and God tells us why.
If Christians are not under any curses, then why are Christians suffering from the very things God said were part of the curse?

"The Ministry"is not the Bible-College certified, hired and titled pastor-administrator-CEO position.
Many find a "church" but fail to find God in the hopelessly fragmented, sectarian, competitive, church world as boxed and packaged church "services" are served behind walls and in comfortable pews
What is the fruit of the institutionalized, titled and clergy-dominated church?
Denominated Christians are conditioned to follow pastor(s) and/or priests, rather than God.
Most Christians never find their personal calling and place in God's Kingdom.
church routines and hired pastor's sermon replace study and listening to the voice of the Lord.
No signs, no real faith, and no real trust in God's Word.
The local church has become a safe-haven for demons who are not discerned, exposed, or cast out. Thus God's people are sick, unhealed, and plagued.
Pastors have not oneverse giving them sole-authority in an assembly and most are corrupted by the position and lucre they receive for doing so
1. Tithing Revisited Why Jesus never tithed. Biblical tithes were always ag products, never money. Who changed the food tithe into money?
2. The Simple Truth on Tithing Honest answers 3.Shocking New Testament Commandments Are pastors commanded to work? Is it true no pastors have a command to take tithes?
If God commanded them to work, is it dishonest (robbery) for them to take your tithe? 4.The Trial of Pastor JonesPastor on trial for wrongly extorting money from his congregation.
"The early Church leadership was not in the habit of taking up collections, but when they did it was not for themselvesbut the saints in persecution..." Sure doesn't sound like most churches we know!
a prophetic Word we received Jan. 2008:
"Because my people have not used my blessings of abundance to meet the needs of their brethren,
they will learn to meet the needs of others from the little they have left.
When they had much, they gave little,
and that into the hands of those who deceived them.
Now I will fill their world and their eyes with those in need
and thus will they be purified of their greed."
Where are My Wings and Where is My Ark? a powerful word for the spiritual man.
excerpt:
Where are my wings? Where is my ark?
Are they not my Words, is it not my Covenant?
for therein shall ye abide.
Consume me, consume me, or I shall consume you.
I shall both consume and spew out, therefore be zealous and repent.....
Our Money Failetha prophecy continues unfolding today in 2010 In the fall of 2007, I sensed an ill-wind of change in the air. It had become clear to me that the prosperity and abundance all around us was an illusion built upon debt.
FAITH IS the Answer We barely knew faith for 24 years in church.
We put faith in the wrong people and wrong things.
We put faith in what the leaders said, in loyalty, in attendance, involvement, in counseling,
in doctors, in lawyers, in borrowing, in credit cards, and in government to heal, deliver, and save us., .
And we missed so much of God because of the subtlety of our idolatry..
in putting people on pedestals.
