"Warning" Bobby Burns (email to Brian Fields)
Brian,
I want to share with you what the Lord has shown me today.
As I was praying I asked Him what direction He wanted me to take for now. I thought at first that it was me or just a coincidence when He said, " Look up some more scriptures on warning," so I brushed it off and started reading some other scriptures. Then I heard Him again, "Look up some scriptures on warning." Upon that, I opened my Strong's. The scriptures that stood out were in Ezekiel 33: 3-7; Hebrews 11:7, and Colossians 1:28. When I read Hebrews 11:7 I realized that I was hearing from Him correctly. It reminded me of what you said Tuesday night, "When the rain started falling it was too late." In regard to Colossians 1:28, I believe that He is saying two things. First, that He wants every man within CCF to know what has been proclaimed, Joel 3:9, and Micah 5:1; at the same time, tell them about the warnings. Second, I believe that for the sake of those that are taking heed, and to further get the attention of those that are not, we are to begin exhortations. It is time also to move on. After our guest speaker next month I feel that we should begin addressing those issues pointed out to us at Subiaco; such as, (Daniel chp 4, the issue of pride) (The priority of marriages and families) (John chp 15 Dwelling in Him) (Roman's 9:2,3 How much should we love one another?) (Confession of faith, Caleb, Joshua, Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednigo) (Forgiveness towards self and others) (James chp 2, showing favoritism) etc, etc. I don't know how we would go about getting the proclamations or warnings to those men that don't attend the Tuesday night meetings, but I believe that it is our responsibility to do what ever is necessary. We don't want anyone's blood on our hands. I also feel that whatever is done should be soon. At least before our next meeting. I feel good about our guest speaker and would like to see a good turn out. Let me Know what you decide.
Your Brother Bobby
