DAYS OF APOSTASY ARE GROWING EXISTENTIALLY
(4) And Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that no man deceive you.
(5) For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many. Matthew 24:4-5
The deceiver plots a plan and conspires to poison the mind sowing seeds of division to cover their lies. Preconception is the goal to bring about a delusion that benefits them by allowing them to operate without fear of collusion with the person they do not want you to know personally. They love their mind games and the sense of superiority that it gives them. They run rampant and roughshod over the lives and feelings of people without remorse to meet the goals of their own hearts. We must as a body pray for greater discernment and acute perception for the days are evil and every foul spirit inhabits those whose goals are the product of their own desires and not the goals and purposes of God.
There can be no real unity until the dividing defectors are eradicated. There are many in the body who are pseudo pastors whose course is evil and their force is not right! Many today prophesy from the imagination of their own evil hearts. They’re not of God leading the people of God astray! Until they’re purged from our congregations we will continue to see the apostasy grow in the global church at large. God’s exhortation is to find his truth and bind it to your hearts. There is only one way to heaven and that is called holiness:
(13) and make straight paths for your feet, so what is lame may not be dislocated, but rather be healed.
(14) Follow after peace with all men, and the sanctification (holiness) without which no man will see the Lord,
(15) looking carefully lest there be any man who falls short of the grace of God; lest any root of bitterness springing up trouble you, and many be defiled by it;
(16) lest there be any sexually immoral person, or profane person, like Esau, who sold his birthright for one meal.
(17) For you know that even when he afterward desired to inherit the blessing, he was rejected, for he found no place for a change of mind though he sought it diligently with tears. Hebrews 12:13-17
There is one way, one life, and one truth: his name is Jesus! Today the church is inundated with false prophets who prophesy for profit and the body of Christ seems to love it that way. There is no real unity without true and verity in the pulpit and in the pew! We are not supposed to embrace these soothsayers that tickle ears and advocate compromise in the body! God’s wrath comes upon the children of disobedience! Where there is truth decay there will be cavities of corruption that consumed the body. Only the unadulterated truth can cause strength and true growth and maturity. The bible is clear about those who apostatize and cause other to do the same! We are supposed to excommunicate them not tolerate them. When we confound those who are lost in heresy the bible teaches to first reach out to them exposing their sin and reproving them and if they receive it! That’s wonderful; but if not then we are instructed in the word of God in Titus!
(10) A man that is an heretick after the first and second admonition reject;
(11) Knowing that he that is such is subverted, and sinneth, being condemned of himself. Titus 3:10-11
Brethren I want to see unity in the body of Christ desperately; but it has to be biblical. The devil loves compromise and will compromise us the first time we allow him entrance! Selah
Shalom, Agape, & Amen!
