This book is addressed to spiritual leaders, pastors, prophets, teachers, singers, intercessors, and to every soul who bears the name of Christ while walking in secret rebellion. It speaks to the one who entertains unclean thoughts, sells truth for influence, stands fair before men yet is condemned before God, nurses hidden idols, justifies iniquity, covers wickedness with ministry, lives driven by ambition, and remains enslaved to an uncrucified flesh. It is for those who still have breath in their lungs, yet fire trailing their feet. In the assemblies of our day we know how to present ourselves as believers. We dress as expected, speak the right language, quote familiar verses, post our clips, gather followers, and fill our calendars until ministry becomes a brand. We preach holiness while keeping it at arm's length. We sing about the fire of God, yet many have never known that fire burning in their own hearts. We lay hands on others while we ourselves remain bound. We counsel the struggling while privately collapsing under hidden uncleanness. And because people still shout "Amen," we assume that God is also saying "Yes." But He is not. The Lord is not impressed by gifts, by ability, by a full diary, or by a great following. If the inner life is decaying, the sermon, however polished, rises before God as a stench. If the life is a lie, the pulpit becomes a coffin, quietly burying both preacher and hearers, unless there is real repentance and a genuine return to the living God. You will not find gentle musings on the beauty of ministry here. You will find a summons from the throne, commanding the hypocrite to return before it is too late. In one sense, this book is a funeral service for cheap, empty Christianity that speaks holy words while tolerating unclean pulpits. In another sense, it is a sword laid against the soft, flattering gospel that has lulled a generation to sleep. Its first aim is not toward the world outside, but toward the house of God, for judgment must begin at the sanctuary. If you come seeking encouragement without any desire for correction, you will find these pages hard to bear. But if there remains in you even a small, trembling fear of God, if you are willing to yield, then what follows may prove to be a last gracious opportunity to come clean before Him, before the throne is fixed and the books are opened.
