Suspicions about the very great evil in Churches

Very well put indeed, Arion.

1Pe 3:15  But sanctify the Lord God in your hearts: and be ready always to give an answer to every man that asketh you a reason of the hope that is in you with meekness and fear.

What then does it mean to sanctify the Lord God in your hearts?  Clearly it means more than inviting Jesus into our hearts, as taught by Christendom.

And the LORD spake unto Moses and Aaron, Because ye believed me not, to sanctify me in the eyes of the children of Israel, therefore ye shall not bring this congregation into the land which I have given them. Num 20:12

For ye rebelled against my commandment in the desert of Zin, in the strife of the congregation, to sanctify me at the water before their eyes: that is the water of Meribah in Kadesh in the wilderness of Zin.  Num 27:14

But the LORD of hosts shall be exalted in judgment, and God that is holy shall be sanctified in righteousness.  Isa 5:16

But when he seeth his children, the work of mine hands, in the midst of him, they shall sanctify my name, and sanctify the Holy One of Jacob, and shall fear the God of Israel.  Isa 29:23

Joel:
Ray's "Winning souls for Jesus" is the best teaching I know of concerning the subject.
He quotes the scriptures and explains Matthew 5 were Jesus speaks about the salt of the earth, and the light of the world.
Very short and to the point in my opinion.
There has always been true Light, and false light since the beginning, people in the church world are satisfied with the false light until God shines the real light on them and opens up their eyes.
The Apostle Paul was a very good example of that.

Joel
