Is there Middle Ground

Somewhere in the middle

14 And unto the angel of the church of the Laodiceansa write; These things saith the Amen, the faithful and true witness, the beginning of the creation of God; 15 I know thy works, that thou art neither cold nor hot: I would thou wert cold or hot. 16 So then because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spue thee out of my mouth. 17 Because thou sayest*, I am rich, and increased with goods, and have need of nothing; and knowest not that thou art wretched, and miserable, and poor, and blind, and naked: 18 I counsel thee to buy of me gold tried in the fire, that thou mayest be rich; and white raiment, that thou mayest be clothed, and that the shame of thy nakedness do not appear; and anoint thine eyes with eyesalve, that thou mayest see. 19 As many as I love, I rebuke and chasten: be zealous therefore, and repent. 20 Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me. 21 To him that overcometh will I grant to sit with me in my throne, even as I also overcame, and am set down with my Father in his throne. 22 He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches.

We believe that God in, all His knowledge, wisdom and understanding condensed over two thousand years of time into seven segments. Each segment has an angel and a name of a church that would represent the condition of His bride down to His coming. Currently we worship in the church of Laodiceansa. Actually, we are in the middle ground. The age assigned to the Philadelphia church worshipers is waning down and the last church period of worshipers in entering into God’s time frame. His coming is nigh. However that is not God’s message for today. It introduces you to age periods of each named period and places us clearly in the end times.

Is it right? Is it wrong? Is there any middle ground? Find the answer in the first three chapters of Revelation. You will find many functioning in the middle ground in today’s apostate churches.. There is no sacred ground when daemons come out to spar. There is no safe ground save the BODY of Christ. (The Church). There is a true church in operation today. Members are few in number. There is an apostate, lukewarm or cold presenting the basics of Christianity but avoiding death, hell and the grave. These are happy-go-lucky “worshipers” who live ‘Christ” by day and like the “devil” at night. Akin to these visible Loidicea church members is a putrid defeated group that make the motions of worship but their heart isn’t in their works. God does not approve of middle ground children. Don’t misunderstand here:

22 Even the righteousness of God which is by faith of Jesus Christ unto all and upon all them that believe: for there is no difference: 23 For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God; 24 Being justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus:

Hebrews 4:1 1 Let us therefore fear, lest, a promise being left us of entering into his rest, any of you should seem to come short of it.

Revelation 12:12 Therefore rejoice, ye heavens, and ye that dwell in them. Woe to the inhabiters of the earth and of the sea! for the devil is come down unto you, having great wrath, because he knoweth that he hath but a short time.

Revelation 17:10 And there are seven kings: five are fallen, and one is, and the other is not yet come; and when he cometh, he must continue a short space.

Adopted into the Body, we must have faith and practice Christ likeness. Then when we stumble or come short forgiveness is promised upon the asking. There is no need to question “is it right” or “Is it wrong.” God’s Word holds all the answers to all questions. We must know God’s Word. Yes there is a middle ground. Here it can be inhabited and pleasure taken within it. In the Kingdom of Heaven nothing is gray. All is bright, white and holy. To enter into the kingdom, steer yout very minds away from all but what God’s word shows you it is right. Know God, know peace. Amen 05-30-2019 BLL
