Christ wants to rule in the church first....

Postmodern skepticism among members of a large floating church would be overcome swiftly if church hierarchies disengage themselves from the blatant lie suggested by the canon that all the instances of the Old Testament portrayal of God is a true and accurate description of the nature and character of God. Until stubborn men and women within these hierarchies stop pushing an insulting theology of retrofitting the life of Christ like candy floss to a sinful scripture about killing and stoning people for their sin, the floating church of disillusioned and disappointed Christians will continue to drift around looking for the reality of Jesus in the church.
For over 33 years, in my journey through churches of all kinds, Anglican Charismatic, Pentecostal Free Church, Pentecostal House Churches, Evangelical Missions where I have prayed and worked with Spirit filled Christians I have had many confide in me their confusion about the nature and character of God that is linked with an uncertainty and wariness of the Old Testament being so closely unified with Christ.
Moreover, I have observed a general 'head in the sand' attitude by everyone toward the very very serious problem of Jesus being retrofitted to the Old Testament. 'Nasty stuff in the Old Testament but let's talk about Jesus today... .. and everything will be alright' typifies the way leaders opt out of facing up to the dire offence to Christ that the Old Testament causes by exisitng as Holy Writ. Everything will never be alright until the canonised appendage of sinner's lives, that suggests Jesus endorses everything they said and did when they used God's name, is weighed and tested at a judgement seat that has only One Person sitting on it.
It is time to stop this nonsense of trying to uphold a tradition of blending old and new wine into one Holy script simply because of its long history. It is time to accept that Constantine, favoured as a holy relic of Rome's hijack of the church, was nothing but a bloodlusting warrior whose dream about Jesus giving him victory in battle was nothing but a worship of the Roman god of war - Satan himself. The destroyer and liar from the beginning.
God has never instructed any man to kill his neighbour - this is a lie from the pit. Unless of course you live out of the Old Testament because, like Constantine, you believe Christ is a God of war and destruction.
