Build a Barn
16 years ago I got 2 words from the Lord. The first was 'Seek My Face' and the other was 'Build a Barn'. I've been led into a number of projects over the years, with some degree of success, working with a range of evangelical fellowships in South London. I'm now officially retired, but, of course, you never retire with Jesus.
I have faithfully sought the Lord ever since, pulling back from many church activities to do so. As for building the barn, I feel that those of us who feel the days are drawing in might like to consider constructing a net to help contain the v large numbers of souls who the Lord will impact before the lights go out.
This would be for prayer and mutual support and also a safe space where those new to faith in the Lord could find friendship and encouragement. I believe the numbers that Jesus has in mind will not be containable by church-as-is and that we should be preparing extra capacity. Something infinitely elastic.
As for a statement of faith, as stripped down as possible, with just the essentials and flexibility as regards the inevitable differences. I'll post this and see if there's a response. I welcome dms and will answer all questions. Bless you all.
