IT`S ABOUT FRUIT:

Thus saith The Lord God:

“A certain man had a fig tree planted in his vineyard; and he came and sought fruit thereon, and found none. Then said he unto the dresser of his vineyard, Behold, these three years I come seeking fruit on this fig tree, and find none. Cut it down; why cumbereth it the ground? And he answering said unto him, Lord, let it alone this year also, till I shall dig about it, and dung it: And if it bear fruit, well: and if not, then after that thou shalt cut it down.” Luke 13/6-9.

How many of you truly understood what The Lord was doing with what you termed “The Toronto Blessing?” Did you realize The Spirit came to stagnant, disillusioned, fruitless, compromising hypocritical leadership to “dig about and dung you?” To kick start you so you could start producing fruit? Or did you think The Lord was just giving you a “hippie yippie shake giggling girtie experience,” something that you could do every Sunday, like a drug to make you feel good?

How many of you received the “talent” He gave you and have gone on to turn it into two?

How many of you thanked Him for the restoration, (revival) of closeness, communion, intimacy, so you could go on walking by faith and build in The Spirit appreciating the gift?

Or did you do what Saul did, lay down stripped naked all day and all night prophesying totally free in the presence of The Lord, then rose up to go back into the status quo?

How many of you rose up to fully walk in The Spirit, fully surrendered, doing what He says to do, saying what He says to say, abandoning the “doctrines of the traditions of men,” the prosperity heresies, and many other erroneous doctrines??????

“If a man abide not in me, he is cast forth as a branch, and is withered; and men gather them, and cast them into the fire, and they are burned.” John 15/6.

“Every tree that bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire.” Math. 7/19.

“see that ye refuse not Him that speaketh,”
