Pastor John Collins: LETTER FROM GOD

LETTER FROM GOD.....

Pastor John Collins, evangelist, of Love That Cross Ministries continues to bring hope to us, bringing God back into lives that are missing hope.  Paul Harvey read a broadcast entitled “If I Were the Devil” in the 1960’s.  That particular broadcast is eerily still as accurate for today’s world as it was 50 years ago.  Pastor John Collins presented “A Letter From God”  during a sermon.  

God really doesn’t want us to suffer, to be sad, to be lost, to be miserable.  He created us, His children for His pleasure, and it is His pleasure to give us good things.  He is a just God, and He doesn’t simply give everyone what they want when they want it.  He wants us to come to him willingly, by our choice.  He loves us whether we recognize Him or not.  He waits patiently for the time when we will turn to Him in love and faith.  

Pastor John Collins tells us the truth about God, about Jesus Christ, about the scriptures and the Gospel and how we have fallen far from the Cross of salvation, deny the existence of God who loves us, who is just and who tests us to grow in faith in Him every day.  Each day is a test of our faith, and God waits for us to realize He is as real as the air we breathe and the ground we walk on.  He wants us to turn from hate, from despair, from the sadness that simply prevails in this world, to talk to Him in prayer, to learn to love Him with all our hearts, souls, minds and strengths.  He is our God, and He gives us chance after chance, forgiveness after forgiveness. 

 

This is Pastor John Collins’ Letter from God:

LETTER FROM GOD

My Children,

My wounded and hurt children, what shall I say to you? I know that your hearts are broken and your spirits are defeated because I can feel your pain. I know that you are lost and weary because I can feel your confusion. I know that you are angry and bitter because I can feel your resentment. I know that you are distant and separated because I can feel your doubt. I know that you are above it all and feel that you are better than I because I can feel your pride.

I see you. I feel you. I created you. I have never forced My love on any of you, I have given it freely. I have never forced My Son on any of you, I offered Him freely.

I look down upon you and am saddened. I look down upon you and am angered. I have given you the truth and it is there within you, yet you ignore it. You have the free will to make your own choices and that is something that I have always honored and will always honor. As a Father, I want the best for My children and have sent so many along the way to guide you and to help you and yet they are rejected and killed.

You hate each other and you hate Me. You have stopped believing in Me and have turned away. What shall I say to you?

Are the skies not blue enough for you? Are the sun and the moon not enough light to guide your days and nights? Has the earth stopped yielding her fruit? Have the waters run dry? Have you stopped being able to have children of your own? Has the earth that I provided stopped doing what it was created to do? Is it not enough to have life and learn to do something precious with that life?

Why do you hate? What makes you doubt? What more do you want that has not been given?

Each one of you was not meant to live the same life as each other. But, each one of you was meant to live a life that will challenge you, enrich you and give you the opportunity to come back home to Me. Why do you despise what you have been given?

You desire to blame Me and you desire to discard Me. I look down and see the rape of children, men and women. I see the slaughter of innocents, the lust of people acting like animals, the pride and arrogance of the doomed. I see the betrayal, the lies, the death and the deception. I see the malice and greed of so many and I see too many that use Me to gain prestige and money. I see the ruin of so many and the ignorance of more.

You may be able to look around and take note of what I am saying, but what you can’t see is all. You can’t see into the depths of hell and feel the pain and regret. You can’t know the bliss of heaven and the beauty of the kingdom. You don’t seem to care that you are blessed with today while you yet have breath in your body.

I know that I do not ask too much. I know that My ways are right. I know that life may very well seem impossible and that is why I have given you My Son. I know the human heart because I created it and I know the challenges in life because I gave you life. Each of you has a choice to make and with all of My heart I hope you choose the right one.

My children, once again I ask you to not be taken in by the lure of the lusts of this world. As much as I love you, I will not force your love upon Me. I will always allow you to choose what you hold dear and will honor your choice. I can only hope that you wake to the truth that is in your heart, where I wait to embrace you. But, it is not only believing, my child, it is acting on that belief.

Do not let the terrors of this world keep you from your reward. Do not let illnesses and broken hearts keep you from loving one another. Do not let resentments and bitterness keep you from forgiveness and peace. Do not let hatred control your actions and do not let greed drive you. Do not let pride and vanity overtake you and do not accept the gifts of the world.

My children, come home to Me, come back to Me, come to My Son and seek His loving embrace. Know that I love you and have not forgotten you nor forsaken you.

Love, God

LOVE THAT CROSS, PASTOR JOHN COLLINS

Pastor John Collins has been spreading the message that God wants us back for over ten years.  This world is a hard and harsh place to live and to do so without God makes us a hopeless people.  Thing is, it’s not necessary to live it alone.  God sent us Jesus to teach us through His actions and words.  Jesus taught us to love, to be like God, to be Christ-like.  We can’t be perfect, but Jesus and His sacrifice on the Cross for us makes us perfect in the eyes of God if we accept that They exist and are real.  It would be so much easier to live in a world where we let go of resentment and hate, of pride and vanity.  What people do to each other creates more of the same.  Wouldn’t it be better to create a good place to live, a peaceful place to live?  

Salvation means being saved from condemnation after we leave this body.  Condemnation comes when we reject God and His love, His existence and the existence of Jesus.  Jesus saves us because we are not perfect and we can’t be perfect without Him.  God has done so much for us, yet the world continues to slap Him in the face with hate, resentment, lies, pride and ego.  We have to humble ourselves and admit that we are wrong, that we need Jesus, that we accept His offer of salvation, then truly admit that we regret what we’ve done-sin-and let Jesus and God work the wonders of salvation in us.  It’s that simple.  The alternative is a miserable life here followed by a miserable life in eternity.  

 One second after you die, you will know it’s too late to change anything.

God wants us, as many of us who will come to Him.  He is patient, forgiving, and loving.  He is just. 

As Pastor John preached, God wants us back.  It’s time to bring Him back into our lives.

Yours in Christ.

Pastor John Collins: Today's churches are corrupt

Montana: John Collins, Pastor and Evangelist of Love That Cross Ministries talks about corruption in today's churches.

Pastor John Collins, Evangelist with Love That Cross Ministries and Revival, brings revival across the United States.  Evangelist and Pastor, John Collins is committed to bring back God one person and one church at a time. From the beginning of Love That Cross Ministries and Love That Cross Revival in Wyoming, Pastor John Collins continues to preach that all people need to examine where they are in the eyes of God, and where they stand in their faith in Jesus Christ.  Our very salvation depends upon it.

Christians today are faced with the same problems that the Christians of the very beginning had. Jesus Christ preached Truth.  The apostles went out through the world of that day and spread the News of the Gospel.  As quickly as it was spread, man put in extra beliefs and rituals, or meanings, words, and expectations that were never intended by Jesus.  As one goes into a church today or watches the messages of those on television, the messages of the Holy Bible are often twisted to suit the individual preaching-whether for personal gain or personal glory, it does not communicate clearly what God and Jesus Christ intended when it was written.  Some have taken it so far as to corrupt Christianity, making being a Christian despicable instead of the wonderful personal relationship that you can have with God and with Jesus Christ.  Even seasoned Christians watch and listen to these preachers and the watered down messages are absorbed without the discernment and understanding that should be bursting from our hearts as Christians.

Pastor John Collins says:

“And I thank Christ Jesus our Lord who has enabled me, because He counted me faithful, putting me into the ministry, although I was formerly a blasphemer, a persecutor, and an insolent man; but I obtained mercy because I did it ignorantly in unbelief.”  1 Timothy 1:12-13 (NKJV).

Paul was thankful for the grace that was bestowed upon him by God in allowing him to see Jesus and know the truth. Paul suffered for the truth and it is our great benefit that he did. Paul set forth to run his race of faith and to gather as many souls to Christ as possible in his lifetime with the opportunities that God permitted him. And people believed, and followed.

Unfortunately the church that sprang up from the efforts of the Apostles of Christ was soon corrupted and truth to tell was corrupted while they were still alive as John attests to. Men have been given free will and so many of those men will seek to lift themselves up by whatever means necessary in order to obtain the life, admiration of others and monetary rewards that they feel are their due. In all the years since our Lord has died on the Cross nothing has changed and it has led to a falling away from the church and a falling away from faith.

People are educated now and want scientific answers to their questions. Some use this as an excuse to forgo their faith and reject the gospel of Jesus. People don’t have the superstitions that they once did and can see clearly that those of previous generations were duped by clever people wanting to take advantage of them. People can look at the televangelists and see slimy salesmen just doing all that they can to get you to open your wallet and give your hard earned money to them. The church is corrupt. The majority of pastors are thieves and liars and don’t even believe what they are selling as is evident in the lives that they are leading. Faith is failing and Satan is winning too many, just too many souls are perishing because of this decline in belief.

Just because the majority is choosing to live life now and seek happiness and to enjoy everything that this world has to offer while forgoing faith, church and the hope of salvation does not mean that you should. Heaven is real and so is hell which means that you will end up in one of those places. That is the truth. Just because the churches have become corrupt and are run by so many corrupt preachers does not mean that the truth of heaven has gone away or the truth of hell.

So, what is the answer? The good book is the answer for today. The Holy Bible KJV or the NKJV is the answer. Your home is your sanctuary and since you can’t trust those T.V. evangelists or the preachers of the megachurches or maybe even the pastors of the local churches then trust yourself and be willing to pick up the Bible and read it. Get to know what God wants from you, what Jesus wants from you and get to know what sin is and what sin isn’t. Don’t make excuses and give up on your faith because you see the greed in the church. That is man’s will to use God for his gain and believe me they will be judged for doing so and will pay the price. But don’t allow the corruption of another to drag you along with them into the pits of hell. Take control of your own life and give that life to God. Do what is right and come to know the Lord. You don’t need to go to a church to do so. Read your Bible and trust in the power of prayer. Learn to ask God for a pure heart, a forgiving heart and a heart full of the truth of the Lord. When the truth of God is in your heart you will know if a pastor is righteous or not and will easily be able to find a church that is grounded in faith and will easily be able to discern if a pastor is off in his message and is geared toward greed or is skewing the gospel and will be quick to leave that church or you can just keep your relationship with God simple and worship in your home with your family. It is up to you to choose how you wish to pursue running the race and fighting the good fight.

Don’t take the sacrifice of Jesus for granted. Trust in His work and in the mercy of God.

“Be diligent to present yourself approved to God, a worker who does not need to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.” 2 Timothy 2:15 (NKJV).”

We have to be diligent in our journey and race for our lives in eternity.  There is eternity.  Jesus Christ’s death on the Cross gives us a chance to live that eternity with our Father, our Creator, in heaven, instead of with Satan, the father of sin.  What we do here, now, and how we do it is the recipe for how that journey and race will end.  ALL of us need find the Truth of Christ and take in into our very hearts. 

 “LOVE THAT CROSS, PASTOR JOHN”
