Whoa, to Pastors that are Swine!

Dear Western World ministers... You are failing. You have failed.... you need to pack up your bags and pray someone righteous, someone actually called by God to guide and take care of the flock of God to come and take their rightful place. Today, for the umpteenth time I met a young woman whose husband has been lying and cheating. He left her last Christmas. Today is her birthday. She has a son with him. I said "sounds like you need a God intervention..." and she said "I've kinda given up on my faith right now." She said "Me and my husband have been going to the same church faithfully since 2007. I got saved in that church. We were involved in everything and now he's lying and deceiving..." I heard the same story, same timing, right around last Christmas. Her husband left her for his best friend's wife right after he found out she was pregnant with his second child. There I heard about another young girl recently as well. Michelle and I get private messages from women, desperate women whose marriages have crumbled, asking for prayer. Michelle and I spend hours on our face before God for these families and the multitudes that are suffering. The children that are suffering.

And why, why all the perversion, the divorce, the utter wreckage of the family? Why the heartbreak and devastation and the admonitions of "you can make it on your own?" Because, as Jesus said... "My sheep have no shepherd...." Motivational speeches (aka sermons) don't save marriages. Talk of using money to "sow seeds..." doesn't bring families into unity. Do you want to know the only way a family is preserved? It's ONLY when we 'come out from among them and are separate from the world." 2 Corinthians 6:14-18 What does that mean, do we leave and become Amish? No, to separate from the world is to separate from the world's system of provision and reliance on the world's ways for money, esteem, safety, ect, and to lean solely on the everlasting arm of our Savior...

"why do you worry about what you should eat or what you should drink, after all these things the Gentiles seek..." But seek ye first the KINGDOM of God and HIS righteousness, and all these things (food, clothing,etc), will be taken care of...

I've been reading a book called "Surviving Off Off Grid..." which is less about solar panels and more on the fact that we, for all intents and purposes for the past 100 yrs have rapidly become a nation independent of God and dependent upon the world and sermons have reflected as much. The majority of Christians have been led, by their ministers, to go with the flow, the tide of the world. Instead of shining as light in a dark world, we dim our lights so as not to stick out. Pastors are so comfortable in their middle and upper middle-class homes with two car garages that they have ceased preaching sermons that change lives, that teach men how to love Christ passionately and thus their wives with equal passion. Ephesians 5:25 The older women no longer teach the younger how to truly be a homemaker and about the blessings of lots of children.

Jeremiah 23 Woe to the shepherds (the civil leaders) who destroy and scatter the sheep of My pasturing! says the Lord.

2 Therefore thus says the Lord, the God of Israel, concerning the shepherds who care for and feed My people: You have scattered My flock and driven them away and have not visited and attended to them; behold, I will visit and attend to you for the evil of your doings, says the Lord.

3 And I will gather the remnant of My flock out of all the countries to which I have driven them and will bring them again to their folds andpastures; and they will be fruitful and multiply.

4 And I will set up shepherds over them who will feed them. And they will fear no more nor be dismayed, neither will any be missing or lost, says the Lord.

5 Behold, the days are coming, says the Lord, when I will raise up to David a righteous Branch (Sprout), and He will reign as King and do wisely and will execute justice and righteousness in the land.

John 10:12 "He who is a hired hand, and not a shepherd, who is not the owner of the sheep, sees the wolf coming, and leaves the sheep and flees, and the wolf snatches them and scatters them.

Ezekiel 34Amplified Bible, Classic Edition (AMPC)

34 And the word of the Lord came to me, saying,

2 Son of man, prophesy against the shepherds of Israel; prophesy and say to them, even to the [spiritual] shepherds, Thus says the Lord God: Woe to the [spiritual] shepherds of Israel who feed themselves! Should not the shepherds feed the sheep?

3 You eat the fat, you clothe yourselves with the wool, you kill the fatlings, but you do not feed the sheep.

4 The diseased and weak you have not strengthened, the sick you have not healed, the hurt and crippled you have not bandaged, those gone astray you have not brought back, the lost you have not sought to find, but with force and hardhearted harshness you have ruled them.

5 And they were scattered because there was no shepherd, and when they were scattered they became food for all the wild beasts of the field.

6 My sheep wandered through all the mountains and upon every high hill; yes, My sheep were scattered upon all the face of the earth and no one searched or sought for them.

7 Therefore, you [spiritual] shepherds, hear the word of the Lord:

8 As I live, says the Lord God, surely because My sheep became a prey, and My sheep became food for every beast of the field because there was no shepherd—neither did My shepherds search for My sheep, but the shepherds fed themselves and fed not My sheep—

9 Therefore, O you [spiritual] shepherds, hear the word of the Lord:

10 Thus says the Lord God: Behold, I am against the shepherds, and I will require My sheep at their hand and cause them to cease feeding the sheep, neither shall the shepherds feed themselves any more. I will rescue My sheep from their mouths, that they may not be food for them.

11 For thus says the Lord God: Behold, I, I Myself, will search for My sheep and will seek them out.

12 As a shepherd seeks out his sheep in the day that he is among his flock that are scattered, so will I seek out My sheep; and I will rescue them out of all places where they have been scattered in the day of clouds and thick darkness.

13 And I will bring them out from the peoples and gather them from the countries and will bring them to their own land; and I will feed them upon the mountains of Israel, by the watercourses, and in all the inhabited places of the country.

14 I will feed them with good pasture, and upon the high mountains of Israel shall their fold be; there shall they lie down in a good fold, and in a fat pasture shall they feed upon the mountains of Israel.

15 I will feed My sheep and I will cause them to lie down, says the Lord God.

16 I will seek that which was lost and bring back that which has strayed, and I will bandage the hurt and the crippled and will strengthen the weak and the sick, but I will destroy the fat and the strong [who have become hardhearted and perverse]; I will feed them with judgment andpunishment.

17 And as for you, O My flock, thus says the Lord God: Behold, I judge between sheep and sheep, between the rams and the great he-goats [the malicious and the tyrants of the pasture].

18 Is it too little for you that you feed on the best pasture, but you must tread down with your feet the rest of your pasture? And to have drunk of the waters clarified by subsiding, but you must foul the rest of the water with your feet?

19 And My flock, must they feed on what your feet have trodden and drink what your feet have fouled?

20 Therefore thus says the Lord God to them: Behold, I, I Myself, will judge between fat sheep and impoverished sheep, or fat goats and lean goats.

21 Because you push with side and with shoulder and thrust with your horns all those that have become weak and diseased, till you have scattered them abroad,

22 Therefore will I rescue My flock, and they shall no more be a prey; and I will judge between sheep and sheep.

23 And I will raise up over them one Shepherd and He shall feed them, even My Servant [a]David; He shall feed them and He shall be their Shepherd.

24 And I the Lord will be their God and My Servant David a Prince among them; I the Lord have spoken it.

25 And I will confirm with them a covenant of peace and will cause the evil beasts to cease out of the land, and [My people] shall dwell safely in the wilderness, desert, or pastureland and sleep [confidently] in the woods.

26 And I will make them and the places round about My hill a blessing, and I will cause the showers to come down in their season; there shall be showers of blessing [of good insured by God’s favor].

27 And the tree of the field shall yield its fruit and the earth shall yield its increase; and [My people] shall be secure in their land, and they shall be confident and know (understand and realize) that I am the Lord, when I have broken the bars of their yoke and have delivered them out of the hand of those who made slaves of them.

28 And they shall no more be a prey to the nations, nor shall the beasts of the earth devour them, but they shall dwell safely and none shall make them afraid [in the [b]day of the Messiah’s reign].

29 And I will raise up for them a planting of crops for renown, and they shall be no more consumed with hunger in the land nor bear the reproach of the nations any longer.

30 Then shall they know [positively] that I, the Lord their God, am with them and that they, the house of Israel, are My people, says the Lord God,

31 And that you, My sheep, the sheep of My pasture, are [only] men and I am your God, says the Lord God.

Zechariah 13Amplified Bible, Classic Edition (AMPC)

13 In that day there shall be a fountain opened for the house of David and for the inhabitants of Jerusalem [to cleanse them from] sin and uncleanness.

2 And in that day, says the Lord of hosts, I will cut off the names of the idols from the land, and they shall no more be remembered; and also I will remove from the land the [false] prophets and the unclean spirit.

3 And if anyone again appears [falsely] as a prophet, then his father and his mother who bore him shall say to him, You shall not live, for you speak lies in the name of the Lord; and his father and his mother who bore him shall thrust him through when he prophesies.

4 And in that day the [false] prophets shall each be ashamed of his vision when he prophesies, nor will he wear a hairy or rough garment to deceive,

5 But he will [deny his identity and] say, I am no prophet. I am a tiller of the ground, for I have been made a bond servant from my youth.

6 And one shall say to him, What are these wounds on your breast orbetween your hands? Then he will answer, Those with which I was wounded [when disciplined] in the house of my [loving] friends.

7 Awake, O sword, against My shepherd and against the man who is My associate, says the Lord of hosts; smite the shepherd and the sheep [of the flock] shall be scattered, and I will turn back My hand and stretch it out again upon the little ones [of the flock].

8 And in all the land, says the Lord, two-thirds shall be cut off and perish, but one-third shall be left alive.

9 And I will bring the third part through the fire, and will refine them as silver is refined and will test them as gold is tested. They will call on My name, and I will hear and answer them. I will say, It is My people; and they will say, The Lord is my God.
