Lazaroo – Saturday, June 5, 2010
Jun 05, 2010 I Lazaroo.
Pray the words of this Lazaroo aloud, in stunned sorrow:
“It is you, O priests, who show contempt for my name.”
(Malachi 1:6)
This is hard to fathom, Jesus.
Why would people who have dedicated their whole lives to You
who have accepted the holy office to which You have called them
who have wholeheartedly immersed themselves in Your Word
who have sworn allegiance to You and You alone
ever show contempt for the holy Name of the One they have promised to serve?
They wouldn’t.
These men were priests in name only.
They may have worn the outer clothing of priests, but they’re words and actions
revealed them to be imposters.
This outrage continues today.
LORD, deliver me from false teachers who call themselves
rabbis
elders
clergy
priests
pastors
ministers
reverends
theologians
church leaders
who don’t know You
who wouldn’t know a Biblical truth if it hit them in the face
which it will.

Lady B Says:
Yes Sam, I agreed totally with you. I too am guility of offering God half-witted sacrifices thinking that it’s okay. But really who am I really fooling! A true sacrifice come from a repent heart and is willing always to give God your best. Not something that we have thrown together just to make ourselves feel good. God gave us his best by giving us his son Jesus. We as the Body of Christ sometimes can be consider slow learners.The story of Cain and Able proves what God will accept /not accept as true sacrifices
