Weakend mistress- a crucible, a test.

There are so many perspectives in 'going to church'.Good purposes, bad purposes. All motion an affect, resounding: Worship, woe or wishful-thinking.I've been thinking about this a lot lately. I was at the library with one of my clients when I seen a book with a man and a woman on the cover, and the title had something to do with…A weekend mistress.Then, immediately started my forthcoming thoughts.Let's say it's a weakend mistress.We are to weakend and Jesus is to mistress.Jesus, The Savior of All.Us, The Unworthy Saved.Random tangent starts….Now.Humans have always had a divine natural seeking for a superior being, don't believe me, or doubt that? Go to a history class anywhere,in the world. History and religion are hand and hand.I mean, for us here in America, our native in'gens had gods.What? Where you going with this dude?Well, get this…of all them, how many religious figures took it as far as them saying-"I am the Son of God"Besides the whole Greek mythology family tree shellacking.Neither were the many people that claimed they was the prophetic messiah of Jerusalem, they are now countless and nameless, claimed a false truth, and died with history.But, one man never died with history, in fact, He is history, get changed the world. Pole to Pole. He put a new measurement in time; He put an example of that is all good and right in the world, Jesus, a prophetic messiah, died and rose, as in prophecy. Lives now and making history.-A credible and legitimate savior of all-Yeah, they're others, Buddha, Muhammad, Confucius.ConfucianismBuddhism IslamJoseph Smith? … MormonismWhat about Gandhi? Had a huge following, loved Jesus' teachings but, could not follow him because of…The weakend.They did not have the caliber Jesus did. They was not up to his level, Jesus even set the bar for some them guys.They simply fall short, they're just honorable mentions and Jesus took1st, 2nd, and 3rd.None of them had the ability to make a claim like that. Something so profound.Jesus didn't only do it, he said. "WAY, TRUTH, LIFE."To Big Guns upstairs who said he was the "I AM."That's a big deal. I mean, that boggles my thinking so hard, God is so awesome, He only needs. I am.wow.Jesus had to stand in front of a judge and jury, kind of, and tell them He was the Son of God. Puts a new meaning and perspective to: the truth, whole truth, and nothing but the truth.He was the Son of God, and guilty as charged. Tangent, over. The church is now a socio-political entity where we have different mediums on which people are committed. Worship, Woe, or wishful-thinking. Some people drive through snow, hell, fire or brimstone to get to church on Sunday morning because, their the mayor. Punch the ticket and play the part, a person who's go to church to make themselves feel good type.Some are drug to church. Some people don't go because, their hair didn't part right.Some don't go because, they don't care.Some people went and cared, but was hurt by the weakend. And stopped. It's a phenomenon, some people drive through snow, hell, fire or brimstone simply because, and they got themselves a pretty-pretty to sit with.My favorite. People who won't dare miss because of a burning passion deep within them, something says I must be in community with the other priesthood of believers; I have to worship my God and my Savoir, whom I love deeply and trust.The people that you eat dinner with and leave with the feeling of love and acceptance. That's what I'm getting at.Church is on Sunday, typically.We go to God's house after a week of iniquities and corruption expect him to forgive us, but, slap him in the face because we're looking with eyes of discord and throwing diatribes with dejection arrows. All because, Johnny Holy-sinner minister, didn't wear a 3 piece. We go to God's house expecting something when, we should be giving something. Got this concept of a super-market theology and buy anything you hear and you make bets on when your going have to hire a new preacher in the next year. It's astounding the narcissism of Christianity, the one things you couldn't leave without getting the idea that it was …wrong. Narcissism in reference to the function of a church is wrong all day long, and gossiping on every member there with a consumer reports mentality open the flood gate for conflict. We are the weakend throughout the week. And on the weekend we are weak.All through the week, we're cheaters.On our mistress. See the analogy? We are weak. Unworthy.I'm a habitual hypocrite. However, I say this in all truth. I seek.There is no futility in our pursuit. Purpose in Passion.But, it's true we tease Jesus. We dip our foot in the righteous waters of a hard life and commitment, then pull it right back out. We go to His house every weekend knowing we've cheated, then we get there and beat Him even more. Nothing more than a relationship in ruins our mistress misses us, we're missing out, and it's all messed up. Compleatly backwards. I mean what if Jesus died, said EARN SALVATION! But, He didn't He died with it offerd at life's cost.Save your soul, save your church.This generation can rock the world.Dare to dive deeper.Partially devoted is an oxy-moron.Says something about that luke-warm idea in Revelation.Light a flame, grand arson, in the heart.We get so caught up in the routine of religion and loose focus on the love and pursuit of a relationship with passion and intimacy. So, I say loosen up your grip on the world, tell Jesus you love Him, you miss Him. Don't cheat on Him. This He-mistress loves you without reserve. Don't go back to His house and break His heart. That's His Job. –breaking your heart- Your heart in worship, in life.Or else you'll just see some more of Weakend breaking a Church's heart in woe.You breaking Jesus' heart due to HIS wishful-thinking, and your neglegence.
