Be
Alone,
Be Destroyed

2.
"I can't
find a
church
I like"

3.
Modern
technology
lets us
connect with
people from
home

4.
Churches
and
ministries
live stream
their
services
and
teachings

5.
Church
consumers
have an
online buffet
to choose
from

6.
What is the
problem?

7.
Spiritual isolation
leads to sickness
and eventually to
death

8.
Clients seek
help from
counselors
but are
isolated
from the
Body of
Christ

9.
The Bible is clear: God commands His
children to be in fellowship with one
another

10.
It was not good for Adam to be alone and it is not good for
us

11.
Proverbs 18:1 - Isolated people seek
their own desires

12.
Hebrews
10:25 - Do
not
neglect
meeting
together

13.
1 Cor 12:14 - The
body does not
consist of one
member but
many

14.
Believers are referred to as sheep

15.
Sheep need a shepherd

16.
Christ is the Great Shepherd but
pastors also function in that role

17.
They provide
discipleship,
accountability
and oversight to
help people grow

18.
1 Peter 5:8
- Demons
are like
roaring
lions that
want to
devour

19.
Isolated animals are easy prey for
lions

20.
* They do not believe they need to be in
church to have a relationship with God
* They cannot get their spouse or family
to go
* They have been hurt or disappointed
and do not want to go through that again
* They take offense or disagree with
something spoken or done in churches
they have visited

21.
Some people are isolated in rural areas
but that is not the issue for most that we
see

22.
When we are
alone, there
is a third
voice in the
room: our
flesh,the Holy
Spirit and
demon spirits.

23.
The doctrine of
devils (1 Tim
4:1) thrives and
people are
deceived and
believe they are
hearing from
God

24.
We need others on the journey
to navigate the narrow road to
life (Matthew 7:13-14)

25.
Most "Lone
Rangers"
are
spiritually
unhealthy

26.
If you are
alone
spiritually,
make it a
priority to
find a good
church
home

27.
Spirit-filled, Bible-believing, Word-
preaching

28.
Be diligent and persevere; blessings will
overtake you.
