While We Sleep – Pastor Mike Spaulding

He presented another parable to them, saying, “The kingdom of heaven may be compared to a man who sowed good seed in his field. But while men were sleeping, his enemy came and sowed tares among the wheat, and went away.” Matthew 13:24-25

The passage of Holy Scripture above comes from a collection of parables that Jesus used to describe different aspects of the kingdom of God, sometimes referred to as the kingdom of heaven. The entire collection in Matthew 13 is referred to as The Kingdom Parables.

Jesus explained the meaning of this parable to His disciples in verses 36-43 of Chapter 13. He is the man who sowed good seed in the field. The seed is His disciples. The field is the world. The tares are Satan’s slaves, i.e., the unredeemed, and the sower of the unredeemed is Satan himself.

ANNOUNCEMENT – DR. MIKE LIVE DEBUTING SEPTEMBER 10, 2018 at 6PM EST!

Hi friends! I am moving into a new arena – live video broadcasts! DrMikeLive.com is launching September 10, 2018 at 6pm EST! This is something I’ve considered doing for the last year and have reached the conclusion that now is the time. Why now? After over three years of recording interviews with great guests on Soaring Eagle Radio, I believe the time is now to begin addressing issues we face as believers in the Lord Jesus Christ in real-time utilizing video. It is a natural progression for this vision the Lord has given me. Soaring Eagle Radio will continue in its current format as well.

I see situations arising daily that need a strong biblical response. My plan is to make this a weekly one hour program – Monday’s from 6pm – 7pm EST. The format will be interactive, meaning you get to participate!

I am asking for your help with a few of things. One, please let your friends know about this new program. Let’s build a core group of people who desire to hear the information I will provide and who will share this information to equip and encourage others.

Praise for #MTPGA: 12 Things Christians Can Do Right Now

“The Word of God well understood and religiously obeyed is the shortest route to spiritual perfection. Nothing less than a whole Bible can make a whole Christian.”

—A. W. Tozer

In an age of information overload and the ability to conduct deep research into the Word of God with a push of a button, the modern Church is suffering from spiritual malnutrition.  This spiritual phenomenon was not created by an absence of preaching.  Rather, it has manifested in our generation through the preaching of another gospel and the pseudo-spiritual cotton candy of the Laodicean Church.  In Dr. Michael Spaulding’s new book, he releases a clarion call for those engaged in the holy task of ministering the Word to return to biblicity.   For the Church to thrive in the days ahead, it must be continually fed with both the milk and meat of the Word.  It is time for all of us to throw off our sugar addiction to the pablum of Babylon and make the preaching great again!

Dr. Michael K. Lake, author of The Shinar Directive:  Preparing the Way for the Son of Perdition, and The Sheeriyth Imperative:  Empowering the Remnant to Overcome the Gates of Hell.

 

“America is in a Code Blue Moral and Spiritual Crisis. Christians and conservatives can point their fingers at the liberal left all they want. But ultimately, our crisis is a crisis of faith and obedience to God that only the Remnant Body of Christ can reverse. Pastor Mike Spaulding has provided not only an urgent call to action but, more importantly, a clear and concise template to make the pulpit great again! This book should be required reading for every pastor in America!”

Gregg Jackson, national bestselling author of 40 Rules to Help Boys Become Men, 40 Things to Teach Your Children Before You Die, & Conservative Comebacks to Liberal Lies.

 

“My brother in Christ Dr. Mike Spaulding is quite simply a brilliant good man and a man of God. He has a heart and vision to see significant changes happen in these last days within the modern church to help guide her out of the ditch and back onto the narrow path of holiness. He wants to see the church experience the presence of God speaking through his under shepherds from the pulpits, instead of hearing from those popular type motivational speakers disguised as pastors who today can give an entire sermon without even mentioning the Lord Jesus/Yeshua and the Holy Scriptures.

Let’s face it friends, you can draw a large crowd if you simply keep them entertained and tell them what they want to hear today instead of what they really need to hear. As a former recording artist for a Major secular label believe me when I tell you I know how the entertainment industry is able to use witchcraft and manipulation to create and sell you a “star” with all its smoke, lights and mirrors. Seriously we don’t need any stars in the pulpits to build a bigger church building and go after those tithes and offerings. The God we serve is not short on cash; rather it appears He is short on obedient spirit-filled true believers. The harvest is plenty and the workers few.  Today there are actually organizations that for a nominal fee shall help you grow a big church, much like the GMO’s, genetically modified organism. It is extremely dangerous and harmful to eat anything that is a genetically modified organism just as it is to dine on any genetically modified Words of God.”

Caspar McCloud, Pastor of the Upper Room Fellowship, author of Nothing is Impossible, What Was I Thinking, and Spiritual Encounter With the Shroud: Caspar McCloud Interviews with L.A. Marzulli.

 

I was told recently that during the American War of Independence there was a Regiment that the British feared the most. They regularly made an appearance particularly on a Sunday and they were the preachers who preached from the bible who stood on the word of God to encourage the members of their congregations, in their fight against King George – no Taxation without representation.

The echoes of the past ring loudly in our ears on both sides of the pond, Brexit in the UK and the election of President Donald J Trump has revealed division within the Church. As my dear Brother in Christ Mike Spaulding, hastens to remind us that in Hebrews it talks about not moving on to solid food and still being on milk, milk signifying the fact that people wish to be entertained on a Sunday and not do real business with the living GOD.

It’s not about making America or the UK great again it’s about bringing people to salvation through repentance and forgiveness of sins not a side door of fuzzy-wuzzie feelings.

Dr. Mike Spaulding takes his best working boots and lends its full force to the back side of the Church of Laodicea and tells it to get its act together.

I’m Mark Sutherland Producer of Between Lambs and Lions https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7hMQbvJP6HM and I fully endorse this message – Make American Pulpits Great Again and while you’re at it the UK’s too!

 

In Make the Pulpit Great Again, Dr. Mike Spaulding has addressed some of the gravest ills plaguing the American pulpit. Only through a policy of complacency and compromise adopted by the nation’s pastors has the once-great United States ceded the moral high ground and set the standard for the rest of the world in pornography, addiction, perversion, and the murder of untold millions killed in state-sponsored, taxpayer-funded abortion mills. The words in Dr. Spaulding’s book contain the secret to restoring this country to her former glory. For if we are ever to make America great again, we must first have a national call to repentance by our church leaders; we must make the pulpit great again.

Mark Goodwin Best Selling Author of The Economic Collapse Chronicles, The Days of Noah, The Days of Elijah, Seven Cows Ugly and Gaunt, and Ava’s Crucible.

 

Pastor Mike Spaulding, my great friend and brother in Christ, has delivered a timely message for American Christians directly from the Word of God. In a time of undeniably great division and monumental historical significance, when so many can without much effort identify dozens of major problems that our society faces, we find ourselves long on complaints but short on solutions. Pastor Mike pulls no punches in his matter of fact analysis and encourages believers of all stations to press in to God, to stand up, and to be counted for the glory of the name of Jesus. My prayer is that this would serve as a signpost to believers and unbelievers alike, pointing them back to the one true God and to the path of life that He desires us to walk in this generation. May God speak to you, strengthen you, and give you the faith to grow in Christ and attain spiritual maturity through these pages and the scriptures they draw upon!

Matthew 7:1-6 – Why the Confusion About Judging?

 

The following story appeared in a recent edition of Leadership Journal.

“A traveler, between flights at an airport, went to a lounge and bought a small package of cookies and a newspaper.  The woman found an empty seat in the gate area and sat down next to a man reading a magazine.  After a couple of minutes she became aware of a rustling noise.  From behind her paper she peeked to see the man sitting next to her helping himself to her cookies.  After the initial shock she decided not to make a scene so she reached over and took a cookie for herself.

A minute or two passed and then came more rustling.  The woman peeked from behind her paper and sure enough, the man was helping himself to another cookie.  Again the woman decided not to make a scene and instead reached over and took two cookies for herself.  This same process occurred several more times until there was one cookie left.  The man broke the cookie in two pieces, ate half, and slid half over to the woman, got up and left.

The woman couldn’t believe the audacity of the man and was still fuming over the whole affair when she boarded her flight.  After takeoff the woman needed something in her purse and when she opened it up the first thing she saw was her package of unopened cookies.”

Our assumptions can be misleading more often than we want to admit!
