The Dangers of The Church - Rev. Brian Fuller

If someone didn't get the holy ghost, if someone didn't get baptized, that's not good church. You see, we call good church. Wonderful. I felt it from the top of my head to the sole of my feet. Oh, this is wonderful. We had a great church. I mean, pastor Jones, amen. He was on fire. He prophesied three times, cast out nine devils out the choir director. Reconverted three, four members. We had charge and I know what we say when that happens but god is working me over trying to help. That's not good church. [00:35:52] (45 seconds)  #ChurchEqualsSalvation

Something is wrong and what I've seen in the apostolic church is we're putting way too much time in the church house and not in the harvest field. I need someone to preach with me right now. It is the will of god that there is a storehouse. But the storehouse is only there. It's because you've been out in the harvest field and you have something to bring into the storehouse.

I'm just saying, I believe god's trying to wake up the church and say, church, this is not the church. We're the church and we are the instrument that god has called to get people into the kingdom of god. When's the last time you taught a Bible study? When's the last time you knocked the door? When's the last time you had somebody sit beside you in church? [00:24:52] (27 seconds)  #BeTheChurch

You know what he was doing the other three hundred and sixty two days? Work in the fields. And those three times a year, those men are required to come bring sacrifice, bring offerings to show god we coming. We're traveling all the way to Jerusalem to show, to bring tithe into that storehouse, to show how good you've been in our harvest fields. I wonder what would happen if we spent more time in the harvest than we did inside the house of god. [00:22:22] (37 seconds)  #WorkTheFields

Just wonder if we don't have some things a little bit out of balance, amen. I'm all for perfection but whatever happened, amen, to getting back out there and getting the old, rough sinner off of drugs, off of crack. Last Sunday morning, we had an atheist pray through the gift of the holy ghost in the water. I don't know about you. That stuff still excites me. Watching god set people free. Watching god do a mighty work in people's lives. [00:23:36] (31 seconds)  #RescueTheLost

This week, I was in Showto, Oklahoma picking some stuff up, ran smack dabbed into all this guy. And got his number. Lord, will I be following up within this week via text? If you'll start looking, don't let this be the church. If you have more church friends and sinner friends, that's the dangers of the church. Now, I want my worldly friends for your pleasure. Jesus, he spent time with sinners. He got accused for spending time with the publicans and the sinners. Is anyone accusing you of that? [00:56:46] (42 seconds)  #ReachBeyondChurchFriends

First of all, when god created the church, he did not have buildings in mind. Want that to sink in. He did not have, amen, pews and chairs and carpets and TV screens and drums and piano players and that was not his concept when he created the church and all of us us pastors say, thank you, Jesus. Because it seems like there's so much attention. I'm a pastor. So, I'm not throwing stones at him or me or you or us. [00:09:05] (35 seconds)  #ChurchNotBuildings

You've got, amen. Come on. You better be spending more time reaching the lost than you are inside this building. You better spend more time teaching Bible studies than you are inside this building. You better be spending more time. Amen. Knocking doors. Calling people. Checking on people. That you are inside this building. Place is going to burn up one day but every soul that you can reach, amen, can have a place in heaven because you understand, I'm not going to be destroyed by the dangers of the church.
