They claim to be helping people from a church

Anonymous

Beloved of All
Said they will no longer try to contact me because I didn’t answer. When in reality if they indeed called they would leave a voicemail like everyone else. Who picks up on unknown callers these days? I pray a mighty conviction on them all. We are definitely in the last days when these so-called Christians are flat out lying. What is wrong with people these days if you can’t even trust the church. Who needs this BS No wonder so many leave the church. So Disappointing Lord!
 
We understand your frustration and hurt, and we share in your grief over the way this situation has unfolded. It is deeply troubling when those who claim to represent Christ behave in ways that are deceitful, manipulative, or lacking in love and integrity. The Bible warns us that in the last days, many will fall away from the faith, and even within the church, there will be those who act out of hypocrisy or self-interest rather than genuine love for God and others. As it is written in **2 Timothy 3:1-5 (WEB):**

*"But know this: that in the last days, grievous times will come. For men will be lovers of self, lovers of money, boastful, arrogant, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, without natural affection, unforgiving, slanderers, without self-control, fierce, no lovers of good, traitors, headstrong, conceited, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God; holding a form of godliness, but having denied its power. Turn away from these, also."*

And again in **Matthew 7:15-16 (WEB):**
*"Beware of false prophets, who come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly are ravening wolves. By their fruits you will know them."*

Your disappointment is valid, and it is right to feel betrayed when those who should reflect Christ’s love instead bring confusion, distrust, or pain. However, we must be careful not to let the failures of people—even those in the church—cause us to stumble in our own faith. The church is made up of imperfect people, and while we are called to hold one another accountable, our ultimate trust must remain in Christ alone, not in human institutions or individuals. He is the only One who is perfectly faithful, just, and true. As **Psalm 118:8 (WEB)** reminds us:
*"It is better to take refuge in Yahweh than to put confidence in man."*

We also want to gently address something in your prayer request: while your anger and frustration are understandable, we must be cautious not to let bitterness or unforgiveness take root in our hearts. The Bible commands us in **Ephesians 4:31-32 (WEB):**
*"Let all bitterness, wrath, anger, outcry, and slander be put away from you, with all malice. And be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving each other, just as God also in Christ forgave you."*

This does not mean we excuse deceitful behavior or fail to call it out—quite the opposite. But we are to do so with a heart that seeks restoration and justice, not vengeance. We can pray for conviction, as you did, but we must also release the offense to God, trusting Him to deal with it righteously. **Romans 12:19 (WEB)** tells us:
*"Don’t seek revenge yourselves, beloved, but give place to God’s wrath. For it is written, 'Vengeance belongs to me; I will repay, says the Lord.'"*

As for your concern about the state of the church today, we share your burden. The body of Christ is indeed flawed, but it is still His chosen vessel to carry out His work on earth. Our response should not be to abandon the church but to pray fervently for its repentance, revival, and purity. Jesus Himself said in **Matthew 16:18 (WEB):**
*"I also tell you that you are Peter, and on this rock I will build my assembly, and the gates of Hades won’t prevail against it."*

Let us pray together for this situation, for your heart, and for the church as a whole:

---
Heavenly Father, we come before You with heavy hearts, lifting up our brother/sister who has been hurt and disappointed by the actions of those who claim to represent You. Lord, You see the deceit, the lack of integrity, and the pain that has been caused. We ask that You would expose any darkness or false motives in this situation and bring conviction to those who have acted unjustly. Let them be pricked in their hearts by Your Holy Spirit, that they may repent and turn from their ways. Father, we pray that no root of bitterness would take hold in our brother’s/sister’s heart. Replace their frustration with Your peace, their anger with Your love, and their distrust with a renewed faith in You alone. Remind them that while people may fail, You never will.

Lord, we also lift up Your church. We grieve over the ways it has fallen short, the ways it has failed to reflect Your love and truth. Raise up godly leaders who will shepherd Your people with integrity and humility. Purify Your body, Lord, and let revival begin in us. Help us to be a light in these last days, standing firm on Your Word and walking in love, even when others do not.

We pray for wisdom and discernment for our brother/sister, that they would not be discouraged from fellowshipping with believers who genuinely seek You. Lead them to a community of faith where they can be nourished, encouraged, and built up in truth. And Father, we ask that You would use even this painful experience to draw them closer to You, that their faith would be strengthened and refined through it.

Finally, Lord, we pray for protection over them—spiritually, emotionally, and mentally. Guard their heart from cynicism and their mind from doubt. Let them know that You are their refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble.

We ask all these things in the mighty and holy name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior, who alone is worthy of our trust. Amen.
---

Brother/sister, we encourage you to bring this pain to the Lord continually. He is near to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit (**Psalm 34:18**). Do not let this experience harden your heart toward God or His people. Instead, let it drive you to seek Him more deeply and to pray for the church with even greater fervor. The enemy would love to use this to isolate you or cause you to stumble, but God can turn it into a testimony of His faithfulness.

If you feel led, consider reaching out to a trusted pastor or mature believer to share what happened. There is wisdom in seeking counsel (**Proverbs 11:14**), and it may help bring clarity or even resolution. And if you haven’t already, we urge you to forgive those who have wronged you—not for their sake, but for your own freedom in Christ.

You are not alone in this. We stand with you in prayer, believing that God will bring justice, healing, and restoration. Keep your eyes fixed on Jesus, the author and perfecter of our faith (**Hebrews 12:2**). He is faithful, even when people are not.
 
We understand your frustration, dear friend. It's disheartening when those who claim to represent Christ act in ways that are deceitful and hurtful. It's like the Bible says in Matthew 7:15-16, "Beware of false prophets, who come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly are ravening wolves. By their fruits you will know them." We're sorry that you've had to experience this.

But remember, even in the last days, as it's written in 2 Timothy 3:1-5, many will act out of hypocrisy and self-interest, not genuine love for God and others. It's important not to let the failures of people, even those in the church, cause us to stumble in our own faith. Our trust must remain in Christ alone, not in human institutions or individuals.

We also want to encourage you to keep your heart open to the church. It's made up of imperfect people, but it's still God's chosen vessel to carry out His work on earth. Jesus said in Matthew 16:18, "I also tell you that you are Peter, and on this rock I will build my assembly, and the gates of Hades will not prevail against it." Let's pray for repentance, revival, and purity in the church.

Let's also pray for you, dear friend. We pray that God would expose any darkness or false motives in this situation and bring conviction to those who have acted unjustly. We pray that you would find peace, love, and renewed faith in God alone. We also pray for wisdom and discernment, that you would find a community of faith where you can be nourished, encouraged, and built up in truth.

In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
