THE GATE<br />

So I could minister <strong>and</strong> still be in hell one day!?<br />

This is one <strong>of</strong> the most sobering scriptures in the word <strong>of</strong> God for me. Here<br />

are MANY people that knew the Lord, they were religious, <strong>and</strong> operated in<br />

the supernatural, but ended up in hell. How could such a thing happen? I<br />

know some would say “they were never saved to begin with”. Well, you can’t<br />

cast out demons unless you are saved. If you don’t believe me ask the<br />

seven sons <strong>of</strong> Sceva (Acts 19:14­16). As a matter <strong>of</strong> fact, you cannot truly<br />

prophesy or perform miracles apart from Christ. These are gifts given to be­<br />

lievers (1 Corinthians 12).<br />

The two complaints Jesus had about these people were that he did not know<br />

them, <strong>and</strong> they were evil doers. This is what Pastor Steve was trying to<br />

make sure I understood. He wanted to know if I have a living relationship<br />

with Jesus. Do I know him intimately? Is he speaking to me? Also do I live<br />

holy? Jesus called them evil doers. Some translations read “workers <strong>of</strong> iniq­<br />

uity.” The Greek word there is anomia. Anomia means “lawbreaker.” These<br />

are people that believed they can live in sin <strong>and</strong> still make heaven their<br />

home! That is not the way this thing works, friend. I am so scared for some<br />

ministers. They get behind holy pulpits <strong>and</strong> operate in the miraculous only to<br />

go home <strong>and</strong> look at pornography. Hell will be their home if they don’t re­<br />

pent.<br />

So I ask you minister. Do you really know Jesus? Is he speaking to you? Are<br />

you living holy? You had better make sure!<br />

Six sins to ensure a place in Hell<br />

It is time for ministers to st<strong>and</strong> behind holy pulpits <strong>and</strong> point their fingers out<br />

to the crowds saying, “You are guilty <strong>of</strong> sin, now come to the altar <strong>and</strong> get<br />

things right with God!” We need that fire again. Visitor friendly churches <strong>and</strong><br />

non <strong>of</strong>fensive messages are a joke. These ministers are people pleasers not<br />

God pleasers! The apostle Paul prophesied about them 2,000 years ago<br />

when he wrote, “For the time will come when men will not put up with sound<br />

doctrine. Instead, to suit their own desires, they will gather unto them a great<br />

number <strong>of</strong> teachers to say what their itching ears want to hear (2 Timothy<br />

4:3).” Friend, this is scary. Are you a minister that is pleasing God or man?<br />

Most <strong>of</strong> the time you will not be able to do both. I encourage you to do a<br />

study on sermons in the Bible. They were all bold, fiery, in your face, con­<br />

frontational, <strong>and</strong> <strong>of</strong>fensive. John the Baptist said, “You brood <strong>of</strong> vipers! Who<br />

warned you to flee the coming wrath? Produce fruit in keeping with repen­<br />

tance (Luke 3:7­8).” We will be held accountable for the message we<br />

preach. We better be telling people the truth <strong>and</strong> the whole counsel <strong>of</strong> God!<br />

1 Corinthians 6:9 “Do you not know that the wicked will not inherit the king­<br />

dom <strong>of</strong> God? Do not be deceived: Neither the sexually immoral nor idolaters<br />
