Gospel Deficiency

Whenever something is off, or it produces bad fruit, be it chronic illness in our bodies or mind. Or the results in gardening or farming it is necessary to look for the root cause if we really want to resolve it.

Mineral Deficiencies

In gardening often the root cause in bad fruit is at a deeper more fundamental level. Often it is a mineral deficiency in something critical for life function.

An example in human health, chronic headaches are not solved with aspirin, that is just an expensive masking of a symptom. Headaches can result from high blood pressure which may result from a number of things such as low blood sodium. Anxiety can be the bad fruit of a magnesium deficiency.

Warning Signals

Symptoms are warning signals of a fundamental problem or deficiency. Poor soil results in unhealthy plants which results in no or lousy fruit.

Applied to Christianity

Also, the root cause in church fruit problems, ALL OF THEM is the gospel preached and accepted by its members. Shallowness, over-emphasis on certain doctrines. Self-centeredness, coldness to certain people types, is a sign of a deeper problem.

Either false gospel (like toxins) or incomplete (like deficiencies) gospels being preached and accepted. Or sometimes it is even a complete abandonment of the original gospel (see what happened in the book of Galatians).

The foundation for the life of all Christianity is the gospel of the kingdom preached by John the Baptist and then Jesus and then his disciples. And I’m afraid to say it’s almost unheard of in modern Christianity.

In Pursuit of Christ – 03

All The Old Testament

All the Old Testament is basically a foretelling of something that is coming that is far greater than what they had. The prophets longed for where we are now, they saw it spiritually and were undone.

….Until finally, the voice of one crying in the wilderness. Repent confess sin, abandon the old life, die in the symbolic waters of baptism, then press into the kingdom of a Jesus Christ with great intensity, and join the new creation.

What Jesus did and is doing is not new and better religion, it is a new humanity, another race, occupying the flesh of the old, a new creation entirely, everything is increasingly different.

Yet the old, very religious humanity is still here, trying to mimic him, to control him, to falsely speak for him. To accidentally kill him off-repeatedly, to shut him down (in their deep confusion).

But it won’t last forever, that old, religious, murderous humanity won’t remain, they are being evicted by force.
