The Sunday Morning Tune-up ~ The Sin of Eli Revisited…By The American Church

“Speak; for thy servant heareth.” ~ 1 Samuel 3:10

Now Eli was very old, and heard all that his sons did id unto all Israel; and how they lay with the women that assembled at the door of the tabernacle of the congregation…For I have told (Eli) that I will judge his house for ever for the iniquity which he knoweth: because his sons made themselves vile, and he restrained them not. ~ 1 Samuel 2:22, 3:13

He restrained them not…

The gross deception of believing that addressing government policy and elections in the church is unbiblical and inappropriate opened the door to ignorance and complacency in many believers. ~ Dutch Sheets, We Will Reap, Not Retreat.

For the iniquity which the church knoweth…leaving the slowest, weakest…and the children to the beasts of prey…

“We know that lions usually hunt for the slowest, weakest and YOUNGEST of its prey.” When the church checked out, Oprah stepped in!

…And restrained them not!

“(Our Government) is facilitating the largest child-trafficking ring in American history! ~ Sen. Josh Hawley ~ 85,000 Children!!!!!!

Better to be thrown into the sea with a millstone (Luke 17:2)…

Nevertheless I have somewhat against thee, because thou hast left thy first love. Remember therefore from whence thou art fallen, and repent, and do the first works; or else I will come unto thee quickly, and will remove thy candlestick out of his place, except thou repent. ~ Revelation 2:4-5

This is the union of church and state, and this is the power of Babylon; church and state together…and they are found wanting, and they are going to fall. ~ Walter Veith, The Fall of Babylon

Earlier this year I walked into a men’s Bible study in the middle of a conversation between a pastor and two elders who were discussing the sin of homosexuality in their families, and to my dismay, witnessed the pastor excuse the sin on the basis of the times we are living in.   And the evil spirit answered and said, Jesus I know, and Paul I know; but who are ye? ~ Acts 19:15

But if ye have respect to persons, ye commit sin, and are convinced of the law as transgressors. ~ James 2:9

Our Lord is dethroned more emphatically by Christian workers than by the world. ~ Oswald Chambers, The Test of Loyalty

And then came a voice crying out in the wilderness…

Discernment is needed. We are commanded. The Lord is speaking more than ever before. He’s instructing us and telling us what to do, when to do, how to do, what to say and who to say it to. Listen to Him, listen for it, know His voice…So when the church allows the government to tell them to shut the doors of God Almighty, I don’t know if there is any greater sin. I don’t know. Because you are literally now taking instructions from the enemy. That is bizarre! So how do I come and sit in your church and listen to you? I can’t listen to you because I don’t know who your father is. We are the ones who are going to bring revival. The revival is coming through us, and God is giving the church an opportunity to come back. But the church must first repent for what it failed to do. The church must first repent for failing God in the time when the country and the world needed to see it, needed to hear it, needed to understand, and stand under its authority. The church has to repent, and we have to hold the church accountable. ~ Tricia S. Lindsay, Esq. ~ “the AUTHORITY to tread on serpents and scorpions”

After faithfully posting this Tune-up for the past thirteen years, I believe I am finally able to see the end in sight. What began as a whisper in November of 2010, much the same as the very first time He called young Samuel {1 Samuel 3-10}, has become a shout. I went to seek His voice on a mountaintop in Wyoming in September of 2015. He answered me on a ray of golden sunlight over the top of Laramie Peak pouring into the tiny church in Esterbrook with His Word in James 4:8. He called me to start the Prayer & Fast Wednesdays in 2018, the Choose Life Parade in Warwick, NY in 2019, CLOTH (Christian Leaders of the Hudson) in 2020, the Eagle Classical Christian Academy via brother Wes in 2021, and the John 17:21 Hudson Valley Revival at the beginning of this year. And today? It is exactly as Tricia describes above, He’s instructing us and telling us what to do, when to do, how to do, what to say and who to say it to. Listen to Him, listen for it, know His voice…

Interestingly, the very church that Tricia calls to repent is the same church that Dutch Sheets, Walter Veith, and Oswald Chambers are calling out. It is the same church that has surrendered its moral authority, closed its doors, failed God, and then tried to silence her John 17:21 Revival message, Our Authority As Sons & Daughters of the King Most High!This same church that brought discord and division into the CLOTH shows up to the very spot where the Revival was supposed to take place…to repent and seek forgiveness? No, this spirit ignores the letter of reproof sent by the CLOTH Chaplain {Proverbs 15:32} and chooses instead to come back to the scene of the crime to stand before God and His people and say it’s ready to forgive…the same spirit that attempted to silence the very people who have devoted and risked their lives to protect his flock!!! Tricia is 100% correct…I am hard-pressed to think of a greater sin.

This is where James 2:9 comes in. If we as the Revival Committee had chosen to listen to a pastor and ignore God, we would have sinned against God! If you haven’t had the chance to watch the movie Darkest Hour with an amazing performance by Gary Oldman playing the role of Winston Churchill, I would encourage you to do so. Evil can only manifest where it is allowed by a weakened church and state. We teeter on the brink of self-destruction because of an epidemic of politicians who at best believe they need to sacrifice truth for votes, and worse, sell their souls and constituents for $$$. Add to that the majority of church leaders who’ve deafened their ears to Bonhoeffer’s warning, chosen silence in the face of evil, and have failed to hold themselves accountable for the fact that 98% of millennials do not hold a Biblical worldview in this, our darkest hour!

For rebellion is as the sin of witchcraft, and stubbornness is as iniquity and idolatry. Because you have rejected the word of the lord, He also has rejected you from being king.

It would be almost forgivable if we were standing in the place of a pre-Pentecostal Peter. But we, by the grace of God’s “helper” or “comforter” {John 14:26} know better! Those of us who remain steadfast and loyal to the one and only Holy Spirit and His calling. CLOTH cannot and will not reconcile itself to sin anymore than Joshua could reconcile himself to Achan, or God to His only Son. Because Joshua by obedience, and God by wisdom know the lethal poison of sin un-checked in the civic ecosystem of men. We “talk” the talk of holding each other accountable, but we fail miserably in “walking” the Proverbs 27:17 walk. How do we know this? Because sparks fly when iron sharpens iron, and too many good men have been conditioned to avoid the sparks of conflict. For fear of offending one another, we scourge the very heart of our Father in Heaven.

So, the question as it pertains to Revival becomes, “Why would God bring revival to an unrepentant body of believers?” We were tasked to prepare the ground for it here in the Hudson Valley, which is exactly what we did in Poughkeepsie on Sunday, September 24th. I believe, with a slight caveat, Tricia is correct when she says, “We are the ones who are going to bring revival. The revival is coming through us, and God is giving the church an opportunity to come back.”The caveat being that only God can bring revival. God is the power working through us {Eph. 3:20} as she states in the next sentence. But I have to be totally honest, as things sit right now, when I hear “We” I think Remnant.

From sister Jenny this morning: Look! Up in the sky! It’s a bird! It’s a plane! It’s… “(The Pharisees) had made such a box, not only did they miss him, they hated him, and I don’t want to be that guy! I am trying to wake up the church…another 2,700-year-old prophesy that we are in the midst of and 98% of the pastors in America never mention it.” ~ Pastor Carl Gallups (10 hours ago)  Israel: The Public Has Never Heard This Side Of The Story!

You can find all ten parts of the 9/24 Revival at Meribah81 on Rumble and see for yourselves the seed that has been planted. The rest is up to us. Amen?

    TO:

    CLOTH/COMMITTEE:: I admire your idea and undertaking for the 9/24 Revival for Unity

    REVIVAL FOR UNITY MC: I am a Catholic and attended the Revival that day. I could hardly believe my ears (so I listened again today) when right out of the gate you made a snide comment, after brother Pavone’s presentation, suggesting that Catholics are not Pentecostal People. You are wrong. We celebrate the decent of the Holy Spirit. As in all other Christian denominations we call on the Holy Spirit and believe and pray for the Wisdom of the Holy Spirit. We pray for the Gifts AND Fruits of the Holy Spirit. One of the Fruits of the Spirit is kindness, a quality I greatly admire. There is no branch of Christianity that is perfect…none. We are ALL imperfect parts of the Body of Christ. Once all Christians understand and practice the true spirit of unity then just mabe unity will happen. My stomach sank when I heard your comment because I believed in the Unity message of the CLOTH Revival.

    PASTOR MARK: When I spoke to you after your presentation I meant what I said: “you are a class act”. You speak with the gentleness of the Holy Spirit. You gently acknowledged differences but still brought a message of unity. You answered my comment with humility (and joke). Keep up the good work Sir. You are a valuable soldier in God’s army of evangelization and Unity.

    God bless

    Lead me Lord, Amen

    Thank you Chip, I cannot help but reflect your words on my life, my church, my family, my friends. Of coarse I and we always fall short of the mark. I console myself that we are all sinners whom desperately need God’s Grace. Lord have mercy on us all. Then pick myself up by my bootstraps and slog on toward the finish line, trying to do better.
    Love You Bro!

    One more comment Chip.
    It strikes me that propaganda is being applied in every facet of our worlds condition. I wonder, Who is the author of propaganda?…Hmmmm. Well God gave us his Holy Spirit and he gave us discernment. To me, these are the best tools ever for seeing truth clearly!
    My analogy for “discernment”…….. You see the ragged dirty person standing on the street begging for money. We are to help those in need. I agree! Then you look down at the shoes and they are obviously 200$ Nike’s…….Discernment.
    OK, I’m outta here. =)
