👓Quick Take (28 Nov 2025): When an altar is broken by abuse— in a family, church, or Christian community — God will not pour fire on it. In Part II of the Broken Altars series, William Abraham (author of The Kingdom Finance Revolution) shows how secrecy, false peace, image-management and performative repentance create mixed altars that God refuses to bless. Real healing requires truth first, repentance second, restoration only when warranted, and boundaries when repentance is absent.
This session exposes misused scriptures like, "Love covers a multitude of sins," unpacks why Jesus confronted image-management in Matthew 23, and lays out the seven biblical gates of repentance: truthful, specific, accountable, humble, costly, restorative, and observable over time.
This is a call to rebuild the altar of your life, family and community on foundations God will actually bless.
You’ll Discover
• Why Matthew 23 is the central passage on truth and exposing image-management
• Why God inspects the foundations of our "altar" - what are we building on?
• What “love covers” truly means (and does not mean) in Greek and Hebrew
• How secrecy builds ungodly altars of fabricated identity that protect the powerful and silence the wounded
• The biblical difference between private sin and public/criminal sin
• Why God refuses to restore relationships built on secrecy or minimisation
• The Seven Gates of Real Repentance: truth-telling, specificity, turning, restitution, consequences, time-tested change and repair
• What performative repentance looks like and why it is spiritually dangerous
• How families and churches become systems that enforce secrecy
• When reconciliation is possible — and when boundaries become holy
• Why truth is the doorway to identity, authority and generational healing
