“Famine"
"For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places." Matthew 24:7 (KJV)
In this chapter, the disciples ask Jesus questions about when the end of the world will come. My focus today is on one of the things that Jesus told his disciple would come and that is "Famine." When one hears or reads the word, "Famine," automatically you think of a lack of food, but I believe Jesus was trying to tell them and us of a shortage of something far more devastating.

I believe the famine that Jesus was talking about is of the knowledge of God's Word and it being rightly divided. Today, there is a multitude of people that are malnourished due to not getting fed with the Word of God properly. People are misinterpreting the Word of God which is causing great confusion and it is creating churches with no foundation, which is nothing more than a social club. If there ever was a day that the Word of God needed to be Preached and taught properly, it is today! If there ever was a day that godly knowledgeable teachers of the Word of God were needed, it is today!

Today people that think they have this GREAT BIBLICAL GIFT OF KNOWLEDGE is trying to rewrite the Bible to say what they feel is proper.
Those GREAT MINDED PEOPLE say that the King James Bible is full of errors and needs to be fixed. They taking the truths of the bible, the doctrine and twisting it to say what mankind wants it to say.

Well, I ask you to look at the church of Yesterday and look at today's powerless churches and answer this question for me, DO WE NOT HAVE A PROBLEM? People today have no regard to what God has said. They want it their way, they want the church to operate their way, they want the Bible to say what they want it to say so that their church, their homes, their lives can be RAN the way THEY want it to be ran.

The Word of God gives great warning of that in Galatians 6:3 " For if a man think himself to be something, when he is nothing, he deceiveth himself." Be careful on how you evaluate yourself! The proper look that a Child of God or anyone else should have for themselves, the proper evaluation is this, APART FROM CHRIST, I AM NOTHING!
