PASTOR JOHN COLLINS:
God does have mercy, grace, and longsuffering, as said by Pastor John Collins
of John Collins Ministries
and Love That Cross Ministries,
but He does not reward sin. We enable others to continue in their actions of
self-destruction when we don’t take a stand as Christians,
when we allow ourselves to continue a path of self-righteousness and stubborn
pride, when we make excuses for our actions and rebel against the very Word
that Jesus
taught over two millennia ago. Pastor
John Collins it is time to get things right.
“It is time to stop making excuses by just saying that we are all sinners because Jesus knows, God knows and every sinner knows that they can do better, be better and can influence others to do the same. Righteousness is very achievable in life and begins with humility and a willingness to sacrifice. Each person chooses their destination in the end and it is necessary that the standards of God begin to be met because there has been too much loss of souls already and it just doesn’t have to be that way.” Pastor John Collins, May 2018.
We are not meant to sweep sin under the rug. Sin is not to be sugar coated or
justified. Sin is meant to be talked
about in the pulpit, because as Paul put it, the wages of sin is death….hell.
Pastor John Collins writes:
Hate the sin and not the sinner is all well and good to do
but a sinner who continues in his sin without repentance and submission to the
will of God through the salvation of Christ will eventually be judged as an
enemy of God.
It has become easy to say that Jesus was the only perfect
one and therefore there could never be any expectation for anyone else to live
up to those standards although Jesus Himself said to be perfect as your Father
in heaven is perfect. It has also been noted that Jesus would be hanging out
with the sinners and not with the righteous if He were to be here today and
although that is true He definitely would not be hanging out with them to
condone their sin but to heal them and to help lead them to righteousness in
order to provide them with salvation.
Salvation does not come packaged with an acceptance of sin.
God may have mercy and love for His people but He definitely does not have an
enabling heart and He does not reward rebellion. He is slow to wrath and
longsuffering but eventually His perfect and righteous judgment will fall on
all and everyone will receive what they deserve.
It is time to stop making excuses by just saying that we are
all sinners because Jesus knows, God knows and every sinner knows that they can
do better, be better and can influence others to do the same. Righteousness is
very achievable in life and begins with humility and a willingness to
sacrifice. Each person chooses their destination in the end and it is necessary
that the standards of God begin to be met because there has been too much loss
of souls already and it just doesn’t have to be that way. It matters what you
do here on earth and it is possible to go to heaven, you just have to want that
more than you want to enjoy your existence while you are here and you have to want
to obey God and know that He is right more than you have to want to be right
yourself.
“Therefore humble yourselves under the mighty hand of God,
that He may exalt you in due time, casting all your care upon Him, for He cares
for you.” 1 Peter 5:6-7 (NKJV).
LOVE THAT CROSS, PASTOR JOHN COLLINS
Pastor
John Collins is leading a revival across the United States that
has been gathering more momentum in the past few months. From Heaven’s
Country Radio at 10 a.m. and 6 p.m. Mountain Time on Sundays to AM and FM
stations across the nation, even reaching North Korea and other countries
around the world, Pastor
John Collins is spreading the word of God
and redeeming the Gospel. New television channels, films, interviews
and more are on the horizon from Pastor
John Collins and John
Collins Ministries. The word of God and the Christian faith has
been twisted over the lifetime of mankind.
Pastor
John Collins is here to bring God back to everyone, in truth. Pastor
John Collins will not preach what you want to hear, Pastor John Collins will preach
and teach what you need to hear.
Pastor John Collins
is down to earth and he will be the first to tell you he did not begin life
with the goal of becoming a preacher.
He wanted money and everything that came with it. God found Pastor John Collins,
not the other way around. Pastor
John Collins so frequently says he was “so far from the Cross, I
needed binoculars to see it. Now I get
splinters in my hands from it!” This
world needs hope, preaches Pastor John Collins, and
that is what God
is giving everyone, a chance at hope, because the guy in the trailer is the
same as the guy in the mansion in God’s eyes, and it is
time for someone to lead a change, a revival.
Pastor
John says “It’s time to do it right, to not be ‘another one of
them’”, referring to those who use the pulpit for their personal gain and
recognition. Pastor
Collins forthrightly says it is time to use the pulpit to bring God
to the people, and the people to the Cross and the salvation that is offered by
the sacrifice of Jesus. Pastor
John Collins and John
Collins Ministries is here to help, to give a hand up, not a hand
out.
