In early March 2008
after reading a manuscript of Jon’s book, I was amazed at how my viewpoint of
Western Christianity radically changed.
Like many other believers, my heart and mind had disengaged from the
“traditional church” years ago. However,
Jon’s perceptive analysis really opened
my eyes! Now I cannot pass a “Christian
church structure” without a tremendously expanded personal revelation, the
repercussions of which are absolutely enormous.
Simply stated, instead of warring against our “true enemy,” we as practicing Christians are constantly battling “each other.” And while involved in
this deeply embedded traditional practice, we continue to ignore Jesus’ dire
warning, “Any kingdom divided against
itself will be ruined, and a house divided against itself will fall” (Luke
11:17).
This can not be resolved by playing the institutionalized tone, but can only be resolved by serious pursuit of truth, and spirit Led by each individual. .., A relationship with God alone as sets the priority of order in a pursuit for more in depth meaning fullness. I agree whole heartily a lot of it 's become dysfunctional , as the spiritual representation of truth and being spirit led been largely ineffective in the west due the mergence of various forms of philosophy , in dealing with the various crisis of our time. nw
