The Single Biggest Problem With the Pentecostal Church Today

[whollyHis]

Speaking from personal experience, I think one of the biggest (if not THE biggest) problem in the Apostolic church today is the Works of the Flesh. I fight my stinkin' flesh more today than I EVER have, in all my 40 years of serving God. I am not tempted to sin- I want no part of anything the world has to offer- HOWEVER, I fight weariness and tiredness, and plain ol' laziness more than ever- where church is concerned.

I can work circles around anyone when it comes to yard work, painting the house, my job, etc. But, let a man of god ask me to COMMIT to being somewhere at a certain time, on a certain day, and I will fight my flesh until the day comes, and 80% of the time- my flesh is winning.

I get sick of myself...

Anyone else fight this? Maybe I just need to pray through real good.

the single biggest problem:

Behold, this was the iniquity of thy sister Sodom, pride, fulness of bread, and abundance of idleness was in her and in her daughters, neither did she strengthen the hand of the poor and needy. Eze 16:49

everything else is a symptom.
