BREAKING THROUGH

INTRODUCTION

HISTORY IS ONLY HISTORY IF IT CONNECTS. IF IT DOESN’T CONNECT THEN IT HAS TO BE STUDIED SO THAT WE CAN COME UP WITH A CONCLUSION OF THE SUGGESTED INFORMATION.

ON WEDNESDAY I TAUGHT THAT OVER GENERATIONS WE HAD TO POROVE CHRIST IS WHO HE CLAIMS TO BE SO THAT HISTORY CAN CONNECT.

THERE WAS A MAN IN HISTORY HIS STORY IS WELL FABRICATED. HE PLAYED A HUGE ROLE IN THE AMALGAMATION OF THE STATE AND THE CHURCH, WHICH IN TERN MADE THE ROMAN EMPIRE HAVE THEIR PART IN HISTORY, HENCE WE CANNOT SEPARATE CHRISTIANITY AND THE ROMAN WORLD.

IT IS BECAUSE OF THIS MAN WHO LATER GOT BORN AGAIN BECAUSE HIS MOTHER LATER RECEIVED JESUS AS HIS PERSONAL SAVIOR.
NOT ONLY DID HE PLAY A ROLE IN THE GOOD PART OF CHURCH HISTORY BUT HE PLAYED A ROLE IN MAKING THE CHURCH THE MOST DANGEROUS WEAPON EVER CREATED.

AFTER HIS DEATH, CONSTANTINE, THE CHURCH HAD SO MUCH POWER OVER THE STATE THAT THEY FELT THEY COULD SELECT AN EMPRO OR A KING. THEY HAD SO MUCH POWER THAT THEY STARTED KILLING EACH OTHER.

THEY CREATED WHAT WE CALL ‘THE HUNTERS OF HERESY’ (THE INQUISITION). THE CHURCH BECAME PIOUS, RELIGIOUS, TO A POINT THAT WHEN THEY FELT YOU WERE PREACHING SOMETHING SLIGHTLY OUR OF WHAT THEY BELIEVED THEY WOULD KILL YOU, TERRING YOU INTO TWO.

THE CHURCH HAD SO MANY SACRAMENTS THAT MADE IT HARDER FOR PEOPLE TO JUST BUILD A RELATIONSHIP WITH GOD.
THE CHURCH NEEDED THE AID OF GOD SO THAT THEY CAN GO BACK TO HIM.

THE CHURCH NEEDED A PERSON TO HELP THEM REALIZE THE BIBLE WAS CANONISED (PUT TOGETHER) FOR PEOPLE, NOT TO BE HELD BY THE CHURCH.

THE CHURCH NEEDED TO REALIZE THAT POPES ARE NOT gods OVER MEN BUT MAN OF THE WORD.

CONSTANTINE NOT ONLY PLAYED A ROLE IN THE AMALGAMATION OF THE CHURCH BUT  HE PLAYED A ROLE IN THE CHURCH WAR THAT BROKE LOOSE INTERNATIONALY THAT WE HAVE ATHIETS ARROUND THE WORLD THAT HATE GOD BECAUSE OF THAT WAR.

YET, THE WAR NEEDED TO TAKE PLACE BECAUSE THAT PLAYED A ROLE IN THE BREAKING THROUGH OF MARTIN LUTHER THE REFORMER WHO PASTED 99 THESIS TELLING THE CHURCH THAT THEY HAVE LOST GOD AND HAVE MOVED FROM THE TEACHING OF JESUS.

NB
There are people today that think they are serving God but they are hurting people and withholding people from growing because its all about them not Jesus.

PEOPLE TODAY NEED A BREAKING THROUGH OF RELATIONAL REFORMATION.

THOUGH THE BREAKING THROUGH OF MARTIN LUTHERS THE REFOMATION WAS NECCESARY IT WAS NOT EASY, IT WAS HARD.
HE HAD TO BE HUNTED DOWN BECAUSE HE WAS CONSIDERED A HERETIC.
HE HAD TO BE HUNTED DOWN BECAUSE HE STOOD AGAINTS THE CHURCH
HE HAD TO BE HUNTED DOWN BECAUSE HE STOOD AGAINTS THE POPE.

REFOMATION WAS NECESSARY BUT THE BREAKING THROUGH WASN’T EASY.
REVIVAL IS NESSARY TONIGHT BUT THE BREAKING THROUGH EASNT GOING TO BE EASY.
BECAUSE HEBREWS 10:14 HE CAME TO PERFECT THE IMPERFECT AND SANCTIFY THEM.
WE ARE BEING SAVED
WE ARE BEING SANCTIFIED
WE ARE IN THE PROCESS OF BEING MADE HOLY
PAUL SAYS NOT THAT I HAVE ATAINED BUT I AM PRESSING.

NB
REVIVAL IS NECESSARY BUT THE SANTIFICATION IS NOT EASY.
