👑Kingdom Stewards👑

Faithfulness: the missing ingredient.

"It is required in stewards that a man be found faithful."

Somewhere along the way, spiritual adultery stopped being called sin.

It got rebranded. "That's just how it is." "Separation of church and state." "Staying relevant."

In large part, spiritual adultery has replaced Christian faithfulness in much of the modern church, and many believers don't even see it happening.

It trains Christians out of the will of God.

It talks them out of obeying Him.

➡️ It makes them feel perfectly okay compromising with the culture of a fallen world.

James chapter 4 called it what it is: spiritual adultery, loving the world while claiming loyalty to God.

A large part of the modern church calls it wisdom and we are seeing the consequences of this in real time today.

This is the battle we face today, and why so many Christians are fighting Christ in the public square instead of standing for Him. ⬅️

Faithfulness has always meant pushing back. Faithfulness has always meant standing for God's purpose: His plan, His word, His will, His way.

And faithfulness has never been about pleading with an angry God to act.

The mindset of receiving by faith what God has already provided by grace must come back to the church. We are not pleading.

We are receiving what He has already given us in Jesus Christ.

Because the Christians who came before us were faithful kingdom stewards, they wove the principles of Christ into our culture, laws, and worldview in a way that pointed future generations to Jesus. They were right.

➡️ And it's a lack of Christian faithfulness that is allowing those things to be ripped out today.

We are getting back to true biblical faithfulness. But this is not achieved through willpower, but by leaning into the power of the Holy Spirit.

We are getting back to Kingdom stewardship.

We must be Christians who not only say that Jesus Christ is Lord of all, but then we live like it.
