The False Burden - The True State of Affairs in the CRS

Jer. 23:29 [Is] not my word like as a fire? saith the LORD; and like a
hammer [that] breaketh the rock in pieces?

I was reading this verse the other day and it really got my attention. He is
talking about the action he is taking against vain prophets. With the rise
of the internet it seems that every other person of faith claims to speak
for God.

Jere 23:30 Therefore, behold, I [am] against the prophets, saith the LORD,
that steal my words every one from his neighbour.

He was further warning them because their prophesies were along the theme
"the burden of the Lord", when IN FACT the Lord was NOT BURDENED. The idea
was that God was concerned with the political and civil turmoil in Judah at
the time when in FACT he brought it about.

Jer 23:36 And the burden of the LORD shall ye mention no more: for every
man's word shall be his burden; for ye have perverted the words of the
living God, of the LORD of hosts our God.

The problems in Judah at the time was that every man had HIS OWN word. No
one truly looked to God, they were just fashioning their concept of him
after their own leanings and inclinations. They were assuming that THEIR
BURDEN was the LORD'S BURDEN. When in fact they brought their troubles on
themselves.

Jer. 23:39 Therefore, behold, I, even I, will utterly forget you, and I will
forsake you, and the city that I gave you and your fathers, [and cast you]
out of my presence:

This is what happened when Judaism ceased to be the earthward expression of
the economy of God. This is what happened when the veil was rent in two and
the purpose of God began to unfold in the New Testament church.

But the DANGER is - - these verses describe what is happening today. Paul
warned in Romans 10 to beware for fear the wild olive branches
(Christianity) would be rejected for the same reasons the natural olive
branches were rejected (Judaism) : Unbelief. The Jews thought they had
Abraham to their Father. The Christian community thinks they have Christ to
their saviour. They think that the Father has laid out a carte' blanche
endorsement of anything they do as long as it is "in his name".

But we know that many will say they acted in His name and he will say
"depart from me I never knew you". The Christian Religious System is facing
her most critical hour. The din and hue of a thousand voices have nearly
drowned out the still small voice of the Father that is seeking to bring us
back to the HIMSELF.

Godly, perceptive, and anointed men have fallen into delusion, self
absorbtion, and spiritual chaos because the Father has not endorsed their
"burden".

We stand in the THRESHOLD of a new day. The veil of God's retained purpose
in the Christian Religious System is about to be rent and Christianity is
going to be left with a ruined, empty temple (structure, system). A new
economy is emerging. A new economy that will be a succintly defined in our
day as the day of Pentecost defined the new born church in the first
century. You can negotiate the transition. But it will cost you.

Even so Lord Jesus.
