Same God, Same Man In an age where the word of God is scarce and the way of God is narrow, standards are lowered to ‘recruit’ people into the kingdom.
Often, this is through a seeming orchestrated conversion to Christianity without a relationship with Jesus. People are brought in through a sincere deception that God is desperate to have them in His kingdom. He is also willing to gratify as many as will come with benefits and shower them with miracles. That sounds much like the acts of the last days church. It is the ‘Christianity' they are introduced to and the faith they practice and propagate. As long as there are people who act better than the worst of all, they are qualified. And with a little commitment and membership spirit, they are Christians. But is this really Christianity? While it doesn’t give God pleasure that any should perish, if no one fulfills His standard, would it cost Him anything to say as He said before: “I will destroy man whom I have created from the face of the earth; both man, and beast, and the creeping thing, and the fowls of the air; for it repents me that I have made them.” (Gen 6:7). …Nothing has changed about man and nothing has changed about God… There is a substance God is looking for in man to get to Him and He will not lower His standard if He doesn’t find it in anyone, people, group or culture, even the whole world.
