FLESHHOOK: Sacred Space, Stolen Sacrifice

 

What happens when worship is no longer offered to God, but taken from Him?

 

In Scripture, the fleshhook was an instrument of theft, used by corrupt priests to seize what belonged to the Lord. In today’s Church, the fleshhook has returned, not as metal, but as mindset, performance, and spiritual compromise.

 

FLESHHOOK: Sacred Space, Stolen Sacrifice is a prophetic and theological examination of worship that has drifted from covenantal fidelity into consumption, spectacle, and self-interest. Drawing deeply from Scripture, biblical theology, and the Pentecostal–charismatic tradition, Oscar Guobadia confronts the modern Church with a sobering question: Have we preserved the form of worship while forfeiting its weight?

 

This book explores:

• The biblical meaning of sacred space and God’s portion

• The danger of profaning holy things while maintaining religious activity

• The return of “strange fire” in modern worship culture

• The priestly responsibility of leaders to guard the altar

• Worship as warfare, offering, and covenantal encounter

• The call to restore reverence, discernment, and holy fear

 

Moving from the tabernacle to the temple, from Shiloh to the throne room of heaven, FLESHHOOK exposes how worship can be distorted when appetite replaces obedience and atmosphere replaces presence. With careful attention to Scripture, Hebrew and Greek language, and prophetic insight, this work offers tools for measuring fidelity to biblical worship and calls worshippers back to holiness, order, and glory.

 

This is not a critique written from a distance. It is a summons to priests, pastors, worship leaders, and believers who desire worship that God actually receives.

 

FLESHHOOK is for those who refuse to steal from the altar and long to see the glory of the Lord dwell once again among His people.
