Pastor John Collins: A Letter From God-He is calling to us
Pastor John Collins, evangelist, of Love That Cross Ministries continues
to bring hope
to us, bringing God back into
lives that are missing
hope. Paul Harvey read a
broadcast entitled “If I
Were the Devil” in the 1960’s. That
particular broadcast is
eerily still as accurate for today’s world as it was 50 years ago. Pastor
John Collins presented “A
Letter From God” during a
sermon that is God's point of view on what is happening in this world.
God
really doesn’t want us to suffer,
to be sad,
to be lost, to
be miserable. He created us,
His children
for His pleasure,
and it is His pleasure
to give us good
things. He is a just God,
and He doesn’t simply
give everyone
what they want
when they want it. He wants us to come
to him willingly,
by our choice. He loves us whether
we recognize Him or
not. He waits
patiently for the time
when we will turn to Him in love and faith.
Pastor John
Collins tells us the truth
about God,
about Jesus
Christ, about the
scriptures and the Gospel and how
we have fallen
far from the Cross of
salvation, deny the existence
of God
who loves us, who is just and who tests us to grow
in faith in Him
every day. Each day is a test of our faith, and God
waits for us to realize
He is as real
as the air
we breathe
and the ground
we walk on. He wants us to turn
from hate,
from despair,
from the sadness
that simply
prevails in this world,
to talk to Him in prayer,
to learn to love
Him with all our hearts, souls, minds and strengths. He is our God,
and He gives
us chance
after chance, forgiveness
after forgiveness.
This is Pastor John Collins’ Letter from God:
LETTER FROM GOD
My Children,
My wounded and hurt children, what shall I say to you? I
know that your hearts are broken and your spirits are defeated because I can
feel your pain. I know that you are lost and weary because I can feel your
confusion. I know that you are angry and bitter because I can feel your
resentment. I know that you are distant and separated because I can feel your
doubt. I know that you are above it all and feel that you are better than I
because I can feel your pride.
I see you. I feel you. I created you. I have never forced My
love on any of you, I have given it freely. I have never forced My Son on any
of you, I offered Him freely.
I look down upon you and am saddened. I look down upon you
and am angered. I have given you the truth and it is there within you, yet you
ignore it. You have the free will to make your own choices and that is something
that I have always honored and will always honor. As a Father, I want the best
for My children and have sent so many along the way to guide you and to help
you and yet they are rejected and killed.
You hate each other and you hate Me. You have stopped believing
in Me and have turned away. What shall I say to you?
Are the skies not blue enough for you? Are the sun and the
moon not enough light to guide your days and nights? Has the earth stopped
yielding her fruit? Have the waters run dry? Have you stopped being able to
have children of your own? Has the earth that I provided stopped doing what it
was created to do? Is it not enough to have life and learn to do something
precious with that life?
Why do you hate? What makes you doubt? What more do you want
that has not been given?
Each one of you was not meant to live the same life as each
other. But, each one of you was meant to live a life that will challenge you,
enrich you and give you the opportunity to come back home to Me. Why do you
despise what you have been given?
You desire to blame Me and you desire to discard Me. I look
down and see the rape of children, men and women. I see the slaughter of
innocents, the lust of people acting like animals, the pride and arrogance of
the doomed. I see the betrayal, the lies, the death and the deception. I see
the malice and greed of so many and I see too many that use Me to gain prestige
and money. I see the ruin of so many and the ignorance of more.
You may be able to look around and take note of what I am
saying, but what you can’t see is all. You can’t see into the depths of hell
and feel the pain and regret. You can’t know the bliss of heaven and the beauty
of the kingdom. You don’t seem to care that you are blessed with today while
you yet have breath in your body.
I know that I do not ask too much. I know that My ways are
right. I know that life may very well seem impossible and that is why I have
given you My Son. I know the human heart because I created it and I know the
challenges in life because I gave you life. Each of you has a choice to make
and with all of My heart I hope you choose the right one.
My children, once again I ask you to not be taken in by the
lure of the lusts of this world. As much as I love you, I will not force your
love upon Me. I will always allow you to choose what you hold dear and will
honor your choice. I can only hope that you wake to the truth that is in your
heart, where I wait to embrace you. But, it is not only believing, my child, it
is acting on that belief.
Do not let the terrors of this world keep you from your
reward. Do not let illnesses and broken hearts keep you from loving one
another. Do not let resentments and bitterness keep you from forgiveness and
peace. Do not let hatred control your actions and do not let greed drive you.
Do not let pride and vanity overtake you and do not accept the gifts of the
world.
My children, come home to Me, come back to Me, come to My
Son and seek His loving embrace.
Know that I love you and have not forgotten
you nor forsaken you.
Love, God
LOVE THAT CROSS, PASTOR JOHN COLLINS
Pastor John Collins has been spreading the message that God wants us back for over ten years.
This world is a hard
and harsh
place to live and to do so without
God makes us a hopeless people. Thing is, it’s not necessary to
live it alone. God sent us Jesus
to teach us through His actions and words.
Jesus taught us to love, to be like God, to be Christ-like. We can’t be perfect, but Jesus and His
sacrifice on the Cross for us makes us perfect
in the eyes of God if we accept that They exist and are real. It would be so much easier to live in a world
where we let go of resentment
and hate, of pride and
vanity. What people do to each other
creates more of the same. Wouldn’t it be
better to create a good
place to live, a peaceful place
to live?
Salvation
means being saved from condemnation after we
leave this body. Condemnation comes when
we reject
God and His love, His existence and the existence of Jesus. Jesus saves us because we are not perfect and
we can’t be perfect without Him. God has
done so much for us, yet the world continues to slap Him in the face with hate,
resentment, lies, pride and ego. We have
to humble ourselves and admit that we are wrong, that we need Jesus, that we
accept His offer of salvation, then truly admit that we regret what we’ve
done-sin-and let Jesus and God work the wonders of salvation in us. It’s that simple. The alternative is a miserable life here
followed by a miserable life in eternity.
One second after you die, you will know it’s too late to change
anything.
God wants us, as many of us who will come to Him. He is patient, forgiving, and loving. He is just.
