Part 2 of the “Ekklesia”
The Chosen people of GOD ✝️🔥✝️
Going to a church makes you no more a Christian than going to a repair
shop makes you a mechanic.
Sermons are multipoint discourses, therefore difficult to remember.
Stories are interesting events and easy to remember.
Good news is not systematic theology or a set of doctrinal statements.
The good news is the story of JESUS.
Christianity is not going to church every Sunday, but inviting JESUS into
your house every day when He knocks on the door to have a meal with you. (Revelation 3:20)
Christianity is loving GOD and loving each other. It is sharing a meal and
the story of JESUS with the lost.
On the basis of accumulated evidence, the institutional church stands convicted of manslaughter of millions of Christians and for depriving
salvation to billions of non-Christians.
JESUS was not born in a holy place but in a dirty cowshed.
JESUS was not a priest of the sanctuary but a priest of the street.
JESUS was not buried in a church cemetery but hung on a cross outside the city.
JESUS did not proclaim from the HOLY of HOLIES in Jerusalem but from Caesarea an idolatrous city that He would build HIS Ekklesia. (Matthew 16:13-18)
JESUS did not come to give placebo sermons to sedate the righteous but to call the sinners to repentance. (Luke 5:32)
JESUS has not chosen you to be a Sunday church attendee, going through the motions, but to be daily disciples.
GOD ordained Israel as a nation of priests. (Exodus 19:6)
He commanded them to spread abroad like the dust of the desert, and
blessed them to be a blessing to all the nations of the earth. (Genesis 28:14)
Israel disobeyed and built synagogues, appointed rabbis to worship, and despised the Gentiles.
JESUS said, “I will build My Ekklesia.” (Matthew 16:18)
HE ordained HIS people as royal priests and commissioned them to go and make disciples of all nations. (1 Peter 2:9; Matthew 28:19)
The church disobeyed and built buildings, appointed clergy to worship, celebrate Sundays and has no time for the Gentiles. (The lost).
The Lord JESUS is the KING of kings and our High Priest. (Revelation 19:16; Hebrews 2:17)
The True KING died to make us priests and kings. (Revelation 5:9, 10).
The mysteries of the kingdom have been revealed to us, HIS saints.
(Ephesians 3:5, 6; Colossians 1:26-28)
As kings, we are to seek HIS kingdom first and reign by proxy under the Kingship of JESUS. (Matthew 6:33; Romans 5:17)
The NT Ekklesia is an assembly of priests and kings who are treasures of GOD beyond measure chosen to proclaim HIS praises, not only on Saturdays or Sundays, but everyday and everywhere. (1 Peter 2:9)
We are the Ekklesia, the paradigm, the media and the message that JESUS chose to spread the good news. Our business is to introduce the lost people to the person of JESUS, our LORD and only Saviour!.
The NT (New Testament) Ekklesia is sometimes referred to as the “primitive church” as if the modern church is an evolved and an improved creature.
Actually, it is other way around. The traditional church is the strange extra-biblical dinosaur with one big mouth and many deaf ears that is ready for extinction.
The single act of constructing the church building and appointing professional churchmen, was to forever destroy the relational fabric of the
Ekklesia. (Acts 7:48-49).
Instead of worshiping, prophesying, dialoguing, loving, edifying each other,
sharing meals together and pulsating with organic life, the church created by man’s hands is organized to death and reduced to an organization of dummies.
JESUS WAS RELATIONAL !!!. HE said that whoever does the will of the FATHER is MY brother, My sister and My mother. (Mark 3:35)
GOD did not say, “Build synagogues and send your children to be taught by the Rabbi”! JESUS did not say, “Build seminaries and send your children to
become theologians” Both are human inventions. We need to reform, remodel, restructure and if necessary reinvent the
teaching methods of JESUS and stop producing fakes who have no
transformational impact on the society.
A home Ekklesia (true church=us) needs homegrown leaders.
JESUS modeled strategic recruitment, (Matthew 4:18-22), practical training (Luke 10:1-9), effective discipling and instant baptism, (Matthew 28:19) and selflessness. (Matthew 10:42-45). JESUS was not just event oriented but a process person.
JESUS said: open your eyes and see that the harvest is ready now. (Luke 10:2). A church, (the building) which is high in the abstract and thin in the concrete, needs “skills audit”, if she is not busy reaping the harvest of souls? (John 4: 35)
We can either pursue with zeal what JESUS showed us by example or follow blindly those that inhabit the “temples made with man’s hands.

JESUS gave us a clear directive. “Whosoever gathers is with me, and he who scatters is against me” (Matthew 12:30). You have to make a choice. JESUS, and a daily building of our Relationship with HIM, or attending a building that is void of HIS PRESENCE ?

May the WORD of GOD be the Lamp unto your feet and the light unto your path. ✝️
