Montana: John Collins, Wyoming Pastor and Evangelist of Love That Cross Ministries
Pastor John Collins, Evangelist with Love That Cross
Ministries and Revival, brings revival across the United States. Evangelist and Pastor, John Collins
is committed to bring back God one person and one church
at a time.
From the beginning
of Love
That Cross Ministries and Love That Cross Revival
in Wyoming, Pastor
John Collins continues to preach
that all people
need to examine
where they are in the eyes
of God, and where
they stand
in their faith
in Jesus
Christ. Our very salvation
depends upon it.
Christians
today are faced
with the same problems
that the Christians
of the very beginning
had. Jesus Christ preached Truth. The apostles went
out through
the world of that day
and spread
the News of the Gospel. As quickly as it was spread,
man put in extra beliefs
and rituals,
or meanings, words,
and expectations
that were never intended
by Jesus. As one goes
into a church
today or watches the
messages of those on television,
the messages of the Holy Bible
are often twisted
to suit the individual
preaching-whether for personal
gain or personal glory,
it does not communicate
clearly what God
and Jesus Christ intended
when it was written. Some have taken it so far as to corrupt Christianity, making being a Christian despicable instead of the wonderful
personal relationship
that you can have with God and with Jesus
Christ. Even seasoned Christians watch and
listen to these preachers
and the watered down messages are absorbed
without the discernment
and understanding
that should be bursting from our hearts as Christians.
Pastor John Collins says:
“And I thank Christ Jesus our Lord who has enabled me,
because He counted me faithful, putting me into the ministry, although I was
formerly a blasphemer, a persecutor, and an insolent man; but I obtained mercy
because I did it ignorantly in unbelief.”
1 Timothy 1:12-13 (NKJV).
Paul
was thankful for the grace that was
bestowed upon him by God in allowing
him to see Jesus and
know the truth. Paul
suffered for the truth and it
is our great benefit
that he did. Paul
set forth to run his race of faith and to gather as
many souls
to Christ as possible
in his lifetime with the opportunities that
God permitted
him. And people believed,
and followed.
Unfortunately
the church that sprang up from
the efforts
of the Apostles of Christ was soon corrupted and truth to
tell was corrupted
while they were still alive as John attests to. Men have been given free will and
so many of those men will
seek to lift themselves
up by whatever means necessary
in order to obtain
the life, admiration
of others and monetary
rewards that they feel are their due. In all the years since our Lord
has died on the Cross nothing
has changed and it has led to a falling away from the
church and a falling
away from faith.
People are educated now and
want scientific
answers to their questions.
Some use this as an excuse to forgo
their faith and reject the gospel of
Jesus. People don’t have the superstitions that
they once did and can see clearly
that those of previous generations
were duped by clever people wanting to take advantage of them.
People can look at the televangelists
and see slimy salesmen
just doing all that they can to get you to open your wallet and give
your hard earned money to
them. The church
is corrupt.
The majority
of pastors
are thieves and liars
and don’t even
believe what they are selling as is evident
in the lives that they are leading. Faith is failing and Satan is
winning too many, just too many souls are perishing
because of this decline in belief.
Just because the majority
is choosing to live
life now and seek happiness
and to enjoy everything
that this world
has to offer while forgoing faith, church
and the hope of salvation
does not mean that you
should. Heaven
is real and so
is hell which means that you will end up in one of those places. That is the truth. Just
because the churches
have become corrupt
and are run by so many corrupt
preachers does not mean that the truth
of heaven has gone away or the truth
of hell.
So, what is the answer? The good
book is the answer for today.
The Holy Bible KJV or the NKJV is the answer. Your home is your sanctuary
and since you can’t trust those T.V.
evangelists or the preachers
of the megachurches
or maybe even the pastors
of the local churches
then trust yourself and be willing
to pick
up the Bible
and read it.
Get to know what God
wants from you, what Jesus
wants from you and get to know what sin is and
what sin isn’t. Don’t
make excuses and give
up on your faith
because you see the greed in
the church. That is man’s will to use God for his gain
and believe me
they will be judged
for doing so and
will pay
the price. But don’t allow
the corruption
of another to drag you along
with them into the pits of
hell. Take control
of your own life
and give
that life to God.
Do what is right
and come to know
the Lord. You don’t need to go to a church
to do so. Read
your Bible and trust
in the power
of prayer.
Learn to ask
God for a pure heart, a forgiving heart and a heart full of the truth of
the Lord. When the truth of God is in your heart you will know if a pastor is
righteous or not and will easily be able to find a church that is grounded in
faith and will easily be able to discern if a pastor is off in his message and
is geared toward greed or is skewing the gospel and will be quick to leave that
church or you can just keep your relationship with God simple and worship in
your home with your family. It is up to you to choose how you wish to pursue
running the race and fighting the good fight.
Don’t take the sacrifice of Jesus for granted. Trust in His
work and in the mercy of God.
“Be diligent to present yourself approved to God, a worker
who does not need to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.” 2 Timothy
2:15 (NKJV).”
We have to be diligent in our journey and race for our lives
in eternity. There is eternity. Jesus Christ’s death on the Cross gives us a
chance to live that eternity with our Father, our Creator, in heaven, instead
of with Satan, the father of sin. What
we do here, now, and how we do it is the recipe for how that journey and race
will end. ALL of us need find the Truth
of Christ and take it into our very hearts.
“LOVE THAT CROSS,
PASTOR JOHN”
