Pleasant Springs Church

“In the midst of all this, the church has become a hospital primarily to soothe empty selves instead of a war college to mobilize and train an army of men and women to occupy territory and advance the kingdom until the King returns. Of course, the church should be both a hospital and war college and, in fact, much, much more.

But there is no question that we are not succeeding in mobilizing such an army and training them with the intellectual and spiritual skills necessary to enter deeply and profoundly into the spiritual life to destroy speculations and every lofty thing raised up against the knowledge of God.

A church incompetent cannot effectively be a church militant. And make no mistake, like it or not, we are in a war for the hearts, minds, souls, and destinies of men, women, and children all around us.”
