Jesus' Bones...Are You Kidding Me?

This past weekend a special aired on Discovery Channel which purported to have found Jesus' bones in a tomb. As if that was not enough, they also found bones of His son and wife - Mary. Enough already! This was clearly a promo job by James Cameron who simply wants to add his name to the list of Hollywood money grubbers.

There is clearly an antichrist sentiment rising in America and I am not sure the church is ready for it. This past week, ABC also aired a special showing an ex-con who calls himself Jesus. No, not Jesus, as in the spanish name but he is actually telling people that he is the second coming of Christ! Of course, the gullible are following him and giving him their life savings to help him live well. This smoking, cursing and hard-liquor indulging Jesus who encourages all of his members to get 666 tatoos is clearly "out there." My concern is simple: what is the church doing to counteract this rising anti-Christ sentiment? The New York Times best sellers list has many books in the top ten who all believe that the christians and religion are the biggest problem facing the world today.

Meanwhile, back at the ranch, the church is mired in denominationalism, sexism, racism, traditionalism and many other 'isms that only strenthen these antichrist arguments. People, we must come together. Enough of the flashy television shows and the latest product offerings let's get down to old fashion deliverance.

I am hungry for revival in this country. I am preparing my church, The Tabernacle, to take the mantle waiting for an authentic spiritual awakening in this country. This antichrist sentiment will not go away since the time is drawing near for Jesus to return. Until then, it is up to us to start invoking signs, wonders and miracles to follow our ministry...not just prosperity.
