We are certainly a messed up country……..America needs JESUS! America needs missionaries to come here at share JESUS! The American Church continues to lose its influence, which is very tragic. The Church has failed to carry our God’s command of carrying out THE GREAT COMMISSION! The American Church fell in love with buildings and fancy dancy stuff..many built their own little kingdoms. Many have made the Church a business!!! Some Churches do not even have a Sunday School program anymore. It is so very, very tragic what is happing. Millions in America are growing up not attending Church, this has been increasing over the years. We have lost generation after generation to the secular world. Many Christians have made politics their God and many have shown an unbelieving world what it wants to see by acting so crazy and angry about politics. Many in the Church have shown the country much craziness and hate.
Here in New Mexico, so many do not know JESUS. The state is raising up many that do not know Jesus, the results are radical abortion laws. It is all of our faults. We are failing.
I am not here to be popular, I am here to serve my LORD. Years ago the late, great man of God, Chuck Colson said on his radio program on KKIM, “The America Church has turned into a high school pep rally.” The erosion of the America Church has been going on for many, many years. Please Read This Book By Chuck Colson Against the Night: Living in the New Dark Ages

Too many false teachers and prophets, too many are making money off of God in America. They will have to answer to JESUS for that. I have had this picture in my mind of when JESUS returns of flipping over tables in some Churches.
My Daddy a WW II U.S. Marine SGT always taught me to take responsibility for my duties! Many Pastors need to look into the mirror, like I do everyday, and ask themselves are they carrying out THE GREAT COMMISSION, are you reaching new people?, are you baptizing people every week?….are you planting seeds into your communities for JESUS?, are you seeking the lost? Many People will no longer just walk into a Church, Pastors need to go where the people are. GRAB A MASK AND HIT THE STREETS! My mentor Pastor Leonard Navarre always says, “Don’t give up, Don’t give in and No Compromise.”
Now you know loud and clear why I am not a ‘popular preacher! BUT GOD IS WITH ME!!! GOD SHOWS ME EVERDAY WHAT TO REPORT AND DO IT IN ‘TOUGH LOVE’ AT TIMES! I do what I do because the Lord has me here to do this. I am but just one man with a lovely wife, Sharon, and doggy Daisy and our kids and grandchildren traying to make a difference for JESUS! I see such pain in this world and people dying without knowing JESUS. I play sports yet at 64 and I look at the scoreboard everyday and as one of my best friends said the other day said, “We are losing aren’t we.”
We here at FGGAM attempt to carry out THE GREAT COMMISSION everyday. Reaching people on foot, by car, preaching and social media and the FGGAM website. I love getting in the ‘JESUS CAR’ which was donated to us years ago and go tell others about JESUS! JESUS! JESUS!! We operate right out of our house, we do not need fancy, dancy! Kyle Martin of Time to Revive in Dallas is a great example of carrying out the commands of God. Kyle did a revival in Santa Fe several years ago, we became good friends. I got him started on radio and his program won an award from the NRB, for being the best new radio ministry program. I served on his board at one time. I see of late he is traveling by car in Dallas to carry out THE GREAT COMMISSION in the Dallas area.
The Great Commission
16 Then the eleven disciples went to Galilee, to the mountain where Jesus had told them to go. 17 When they saw him, they worshiped him; but some doubted. 18 Then Jesus came to them and said, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. 19 Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, 20 and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.”
Many Churches have lost their salt….“You are the salt of the earth, but if salt has lost its taste, how shall its saltiness be restored? It is no longer good for anything except to be thrown out and trampled under people’s feet.
Much of the America Church loves to preach to the choir! Get outside Pastors, walk the streets, drive the car…go, go, go., for JESUS! America needs JESUS! This is a most critical time as Satan is having way with many! Winning souls for JESUS should be your main focus not fancy, dancy buildings, sound systems etc……..
People are dying not knowing JESUS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
THE DAILY CITZEN REPORTS:
French politicians, intellectual elites and journalists don’t like American progressive ideas on “race, gender, post-colonialism” The New York Times recently reported. It should be a sign to Americans that “wokeness” is starting to go too far.
“Certain social science theories entirely imported from the United States, with their problems, which I respect, and which exist, but which are just added to ours, I say to myself that it is reasonable to make this choice,’’ French President Emmanuel Macron recently said.

From the writings of Billy Graham:
Can this be a Biblical church?Feb 12, 2021 |

From the writings of the Rev. Billy Graham
Q: My church is no longer the church it used to be. Many say they follow the Lord but don’t really read His Word or preach it. Can this be a Biblical church? – D.C. A: Within the vast complexities, bureaucracies, organizations, and institutions of Christendom there exists the true Body of Christ. They are the ones who have their names written in the Lamb’s Book of Life (Revelation 21:27). They are scattered in all denominations, and many are in no denomination at all. This is the church against which Christ promised the gates of hell would never prevail (Matthew 16:18). There is a group of people, often a minority, in almost every congregation who have personally met the living Christ and can never be the same again. Not everyone in the church belongs to Christ. The word “church” comes from a Greek word, ecclesia, which means “to call out.” The church is composed of all those true believers from Pentecost onward who are united together in Christ. The Bible teaches that the church, the Body of Christ, is His body on earth of which He is the Head (Ephesians 1:22-23). The church needs to be called back to Biblical authority. Many Protestant churches today are far from the authority of the Scriptures. We desperately need a new reformation. Only a healthy church can help a sick world. Much social action today is nothing but sheer humanism. The changing of people’s hearts is the primary mission of the church. To proclaim the entire Gospel of Christ is the only answer to mankind’s deepest needs. True members of the church are those who have been transformed by the power of Christ and grow deeper in the things of God as His true disciples. |
