INTERDENOMINATIONAL REVIVAL? by steve finnell


Is interdenominational revival a Biblical concept? Can you in your wildest dreams imagine the apostle Paul organizing an interdenominational revival?

A first century interdenominational revival could have been as follows.

Sundays Preacher: Rev. Law Keeper from the First Judaizer Church. Note: Christian Judaizers believed that you had to continue to practice the law of Moses to be saved. (Galatians 5:4 You have become estranged from Christ, you who attempt to be justified by law; you have fallen from grace. NKJV

Mondays Preacher: Rev. Liar from the First Christian Church of Hypocrisy. (1 Timothy 2-3 speaking lies and hypocrisy, having their own conscience seared with a hot iron, 3 forbidding to marry, and commanding to abstain from foods which God created by those who believe the truth.)NKJV

Tuesdays Preacher: Rev. Hymenaeus from The Christian Resurrection Has Past Church. (2 Timothy 17-18 And their message will spread like cancer. Hymenaeus and Philetus are of this sort, 18 who have strayed concerning the truth, saying that the resurrection is already past; and they overthrow the faith of some.) NKJV

Wednesdays Preacher: Rev. Distorter from the The Jerusalem Christian Perverter Church. (Acts 20:30 "Also from among yourselves men will rise up , speaking perverse things, to draw away the disciples after themselves.) NKJV

Thursdays Preacher: The apostle Paul from the Lord's Church.

Can you imagine the Apostle Paul participating this kind of interdenominational revival or worship.

Twenty First Century Interdenominational Revival?

Sundays Preacher: A preacher who believes some old testament laws that have not be repeated under the new covenant are still in force.

Tuesdays Preacher: A preacher who believe that water baptism is not essential for the forgiveness of sins and teaches that men are saved by grace alone, or faith only.

Wednesdays Preacher: A preacher who believes it is valid to pray to the pope, the Virgin Mary, and other dead Christians.

Thursdays Preacher: A preacher who believes that men today have the gift of tongues, and other miraculous gifts of the Spirit. And preaches you must speak in tongues to be saved.

Fridays Preacher: A preacher who believes that Jesus is simply one of many ways to salvation.

Saturdays Preacher: A preacher who believes Jesus loves division and does not judge erroneous doctrine.

Sundays Preacher: A preacher who believes that God the Father was at one time a man and then became God and that all men can become Gods. 

Can you imagine the apostle Paul sanctioning interdenominational revivals, and worship?

Galatians 1:8 Let God's curses fall on anyone, including myself, who preaches any other way to be saved than the one we told you about; yes, if an angel comes from heaven and preaches any other message, let him be forever cursed. (The Living Bible -Paraphrased)

Can you imagine God approving interdenominational revivals or worship.

Romans 16:17 Now I urge you, brethren, note those who cause divisions and offenses, contrary to the doctrine which you learned, and avoid them. (NKJV)
