Let us begin with sincere repentance before our GOD, in Jesus’ name….

One of our LORD’s dear disciples told me they were dreading finding out how that Charles Spurgeon was a Calvinist and a Mason…. because they had lifted him up so high in their hearts and minds. My reply was as follows….

Whew been there many times…. you are a true disciple of our LORD Jesus apparently… honest….. Isaiah 2:22 right? Our LORD is slaying all the idols of our hearts because He loves us.

“Son of man, these men have set up their idols in their heart, and put the stumblingblock of their iniquity before their face: should I be enquired of at all by them?” Ezekiel 14:3

“O Israel, return unto the LORD thy God; for thou hast fallen by thine iniquity. 2 Take with you words, and turn to the LORD: say unto him, Take away all iniquity, and receive us graciously: so will we render the calves of our lips.” Hosea 14:1-2

YOUR PRAYER: Holy Father, I come to You through Christ alone, and certainly not in my own filthy rag righteousness! LORD, I here and now repent of idolatry, of the sin of spiritual adultery as and when I dared put any man, any woman, or any ministry above that which is written of men – that they, we have all sinned against You. Please forgive and wash me clean in Thy precious blood LORD Jesus here and now. Please take away the stony places of my heart and grant this, Your vessel, to have an heart of flesh. I love You dear Father and LORD Jesus. Have Your way in my life. I lay my life in Thy hands. In Jesus’ name.

“Charles Spurgeon inconspicuously included Luciferian terms in many of his sermons. These occult words and phrases have been ignored by Calvinists who to this day hail Spurgeon as the Prince of Preachers. Listed below are 7 pages of quotes from Charles Spurgeon’s sermons containing occult terms.

Many of these terms are found in Masonic works such as Morals and Dogma” by Albert Pike, “Mackey’s Encyclopedia of Freemasonry” by Albert Mackey, “The Secret Teachings of All Ages” by Manly P. Hall and Theosophical works such as “The Secret Doctrine” and “The Externalisation of the Hierarchy” by Helena Blavatsky and many others.

The occult terms Charles Spurgeon used in his sermons are used across a wide spectrum of occult/esoteric belief systems such as in witchcraft, Satanism, the Kabbalah, Alchemy, Gnosticism, Buddhism, Hinduism, Theosophy, Rosicrucianism, Zoroastrianism, the New Age Movement, Latter Rain/New Apostolic Reformation/Pentecostal/Charismatic Movement and more.

The demonic doctrine of Calvinism is a Masonic Luciferian invention to trap the masses into what appears to be solid Christian teaching when in fact it is sending people directly to hell via the doctrine of T.U.L.I.P. Please see this article that proves John Calvin was a Freemason: Huguenots, John Calvin and Freemasonry.

Charles Haddon Spurgeon was not the Prince of Preachers, he was the Prince of Predators.

Spiritual Freemasonry (Spurgeon uses holy grip and sacred passwords)

Charles Spurgeon: “I pray that the members of this church may always act toward each other as brothers and sisters in Christ. I wish that among all the saints there might be a sort of spiritual Freemasonry so that whenever we might meet, we should recognize one another by the holy grip of Christian love. There are certain sacred passwords that are common to all the saints and I will defy the hypocrite or the worldling to pronounce them aright—but if he should be able to utter them with his lips—he can never really know their meaning in his heart.”

Freemasonry: “Shekinah, or Logos, 8 which our ancient Brethren, with all humility and reverence, have ventured to introduce into the system  of spiritual Freemasonry ; that emanation of the Deity was the irresistible agent in the creation of the world.” — Historical Landmarks of Freemasonry  

The Golden Light (Occultism, Hinduism, Witchcraft)

Charles Spurgeon: “You can see Him as the dove, full of innocence. You can see Him in the blood sprinkled, in the incense burning, in the laver filled with water, in Aaron’s rod that budded, in the golden pot that was full of manna, in the ark. You can see Him having the law within His heart and over the ark. You can see the golden light of the Shekinah above the mercy seat, and say, ‘Christ is here.’” (The Dew of Christ’s Youth #2724,)

Occult Meditations: “Man has to recollect his original state of perfection and rise like the Sun who rises and transmits golden light. He is light; he is life. Man also has to rise to his east, which is his Ajna centre, where he experiences himself as I AM. He then experiences the golden life, the golden light and the golden temple.”— Occult Meditations by K. Parvati Kumar

Hinduism: “Technically, miracles are reserved for outwardly verifiable events and thus do not include the subjective world of visions or mystical experience. That aside, we suggest that the most worthy miracle of all is the alchemical transformation of the mind from leaden sloth, delusions and desires to the golden light of cosmic energy, love, freedom, charity and self-knowing.”

Witchcraft: “Open your crown chakra…….”

Golden Fire  (the “flame of Prana” believed by Luciferians to be Lucifer’s life force):

Charles Spurgeon: “As ‘I AM’ was in the bush, and made it glow with golden fire, transforming it from a despicable bush to become a throne for Deity, so shall it be with you. ‘I am with you, poor bush that might readily be burned; I will fill you with Myself, and make you radiant with glory, for I have set My love upon you from of old.’”  — The Sweet Harp of Consolation #760

Theosophy: “Reading jñāna in stead of dhyāna in  the text, the directly following text would be understandable and satisfactory. This idea that we should read jñāna is also supported by the fact that later onshe says: ‘Henceforth thy way is clear right through the Vīrya gate, the fifth one of the Seven Portals. Thou art now on the way that leadeth to the Dhyāna haven, the sixth, the Bodhi Portal. The Dhyāna gate is like an alabaster vase, white and transparent; within there burns a steady golden fire, the flame of Prajñā that radiates from Ātman’ – what seems to indicate that only then she begins to speak about the sixth pāramitā, which is Dhyāna.”Glossary to the Voice of Silence 

Mystic Letters  (Kabbalah) 

Charles Spurgeon: “As for the ungodly world, it concerns them not whether there is a God or not! And as to the excellence of His character, they do not regard it. But those whom He loves and whom He will set on high, delight to know the name of God and to spell out its mystic letters as they are painted on His works, unfolded in His ways and revealed in His Word! They make it their study to know what can be known of Him.” Love’s Reward #3433

Kabbalah: “What Dee seems to have done is to take the geometrical argument to its logical conclusion. He announced in his dedicatory letter that “this alphabetic literature contains great mysteries,” continuing that “the first Mystic letters of Hebrews, Greeks, and Romans were formed by God and transmitted to mortals [ . . . ] so that all the signs used to represent them were produced by points, straight lines, and circumferences of circles arranged by an art most marvelous and wise.” — Samizdat

Creative Energy of the Spirit (Occult, Hinduism)

Charles Spurgeon: “That fabric, in all its beauty and perfection, was modeled by the Spirit. In His book were all the members written when as yet there were none of them. He fashioned and formed Him and here again we have another instance of the creative energy of the Spirit.”

Occult Pictograms: “The sacral messages continue. At even a higher level here we can find information about the creation of the figures 1 to 10, the seven charkas and the evolution of the races. And at that, the Glagolic Alphabet is not just a chronological transition between the old cosmic and the contemporary pictogramic cosmic language Senzar – it imposes their logical and mutual relation (especially between the letters in which the light creative energy of the Spirit touches the Initial Circle) and the creation of the figures 1 to 10, the seven charkas and the evolution of the races.”

Hinduism: “In Hindu philosophy, the creative energy of the spirit, the principle of becoming, is described metaphorically as the feminine principle, whereas the principle of being (sattd,)which is the basis and support of the creative flow of becoming, is characterized metaphorically as the male principle.”

Moral Ruler of the Universe  (Freemasonry, Hindusim)

Charles Spurgeon: “Furthermore, remember the perfection of the character of God as the moral Ruler of the Universe. He is the Judge of all, and He must do right.”  — Pleading and Encouragement #1795 

Freemasonry: “Freemasonry not only teaches the existence of a Divine Moral Ruler of the Universe and enjoins the duty of reverence to Him but recognizes the various relations which he has established and the duties which those relations i pose.” — National Freemason, Vol. 8 1867 pg. 94 

Energy of the Spiritual Life (Theosophy)

Charles Spurgeon: “Let a man be troubled with doubts as to the religion which he has espoused, or concerning his own interest in the privileges which that religion bestows, and you will soon find that all the energy of his spiritual life is gone—he will have little more than a name to live, practically he will be powerless.” — Life by Faith 814 

Theosophy: “You Occidentals have been thinking for too long a time that the only power of thought resides in your own Occidental brains. Too long a time have you disregarded nature’s outstanding fact that consciousness and the energy of the spiritual life in here in all human beings. Why does this kind questioner call this idea a pagan idea, if not from this Occidental egoism which qualifies its own small portion of learning as the standard by which all the rest of mankind shall be judged? Yes, it is a pagan idea, because it is a true idea.” — Gods, Men and Atoms

Healing Energy (Kabbalah, Witchcraft/Reiki)

Charles Spurgeon: “For she said, ‘If I may touch but His clothes, I shall be whole.’ Not ‘If I may but touch His clothes,’ as if she meant to lay stress on the mere touch. The translators were wise to place the ‘but’ after the ‘touch,’ for there the emphasis rests. The woman believed that Jesus was full of healing energy everywhere even in His garments, and therefore she felt— ‘If I may touch but His clothes, I shall thus come into contact with Him and I shall be whole.’” — The Touch #1640

Kabbalah: “Kabbalistic healing combines the principles of the Tree of Life with the divine healing energy of Universal Light.  Putting these two systems together creates a powerful vessel for healing.” — Kabbalistic Healing 

Witchcraft/Reiki: “It helps when you are receiving reiki healing for you to believe in the healing power of the universe, this allows you to gain the most out of your treatment, when having a treatment you are opening yourself up to the healing energy of the universe.” — from witches lore

The Infinite – Spurgeon Regarded “The Infinite” as an “It” (Theosophy)

Charles Spurgeon: “I am conscious that all I can say concerning the sufferings of Jesus this morning will be but as a drop in the bucket. None of us know the half of the agony which He endured. None of us have ever fully comprehended the love of Christ which passes knowledge! Philosophers have probed the earth to its very center; threaded the spheres; measured the skies, weighed the hills—no, weighed the world itself—but this is one of those vast, boundless things which to measure surpasses all but the Infinite itself!” — The Shameful Sufferer #236 

Theosophy: “[Theosophy] is belief in the Deity as the ALL, the source of all existence, the infinite that cannot be either comprehended or known, the universe alone revealing IT … (page 91)” — Theosophy Defined

Infinite Energy (Occult)

Charles Spurgeon: “When the fire of conversion has kindled the fire of persecution, it proves its own infinite energy by subjecting even persecution to itself.” — Fire-The Want of the Times #854 

Occult: “There is Unity. Unity is All there is. Infinite Intelligence, and Infinite Energy. The two are One, and within them, is the potential for all Creation. This state of Consciousness could be termed as ‘Being’.” 5The Lucifer and Yahweh Creation Story

Living Energy (Theosophy)

Charles Spurgeon: “You profess to ‘love your God with zeal so great that you could give Him all, and what, after all, do you give Him? Oh, how much  outward religion is nothing but inward hypocrisy! How much of our talk about religion is mere gossip! God save us from vain talk and impart to us a living energy, so that our deeds may proclaim our faith!” — Blessings Manifold and Marvelous No. 3474 

Theosophy: “Love, then—or, if you prefer, compassion—is the living energy that unites us with the ultimate, by whatever name we may call it—God, Brahma, the One, the Vastness, the realm of the gods. It is the same energy that connects us with everything and everyone in the universe—with the distant stars as with the blade of grass and the pebbles beneath our feet, with those we call our friends as with those we may think of as our enemies.” — The Vitality of Living Truth by Joy Mills 

Master Science (Freemasonry)

Charles Spurgeon: “But when we come to this master science, finding that our plumb-line cannot sound its depth, and that our eagle eye cannot see its height, we turn away with the thought, that vain man would be wise, but he is like a wild ass’s colt; and with the solemn exclamation, “I am but of yesterday, and know nothing.” — The Immutability of God #1 

Freemasonry: “The advantages which mankind in genera! reap from this master Science are beyond calculation. Its blessings are confined to no country, but are diffused with the Institution throughout the world. Men of all languages, of all religions, of the remotest nations, and of every habit and opinion, are united in a bond of brotherly affection.”Mackey’s Encyclopedia of Freemasonry 

Holy Spirits (Freemasonry)

Charles Spurgeon: “The cherubim and seraphim continually bound forth His praise. At His behest, the mightiest spirit delights to fly and carry His commands to the most distant world. He has but to speak and it is done! Cheerfully is He obeyed and majestically does He reign. His high courts are thronged with holy spirits who live upon His smile, who drink light from His eyes, who borrow glory from His Majesty.” — The Savior’s Many Crowns #281 

Freemasonry: “. . . but another word for Seraphim, or angels of light–the true Freemasons in the sky–ministering spirits, continually ascending and descending from earth to heaven, and from heaven to earth, to receive and disseminate divine commissions for the benefit of man; and serving on great occasions as the chariot of the Deity.” — On Cherubim and Seraphim, full royalty he rode. Sternhold 

These holy spirits were symbolized in the seven lamps, or Inferior Shekinah, mentioned by Zechariah.”Universal Masonic Library, Volume 10, edited by Robert Macoy, 1855, Lecture 1 pg. 10  

The Promised One (Theosophy)

Charles Spurgeon: “THIS is spoken of as one of the results of the coming of the Lord: he would test and try all things, destroy the false and the evil, and make those pure whom he permitted to remain. Behold, the Promised One has come!” — The Sifting of the Refiner #1575 

Theosophy: “Baha Ulah, his life thus spared, was exiled with his family and some of his followers to the Turkish dominions. There is Bagdad he declared to his followers, what they had already suspected, that he was the Promised One, foretold by the Bab, the great Manifestation of God come for all the religions of the world.”The Theosophical Review, Vol. 39 1906 pg. 416  

The One (a title of the Antichrist (Theosophy)

Charles Spurgeon: “It is the same Person who speaks in each case, and He is speaking concerning Himself in both instances, so it is very remarkable that He should first say  ‘Me,’ and then say ‘Him.’ What is this but another illustration of the Unity of the Godhead, and yet the Trinity of the adorable Persons in it? Notice that the One who, in this chapter, speaks of Himself as ‘Me’ and ‘Him,’ is none other than Jehovah who made the heavens and the earth.” — Mourning at the Cross #2901 

Theosophy: “Another great Approach of divinity and another spiritual revelation are now possible. A new revelation is hovering over mankind, and the One Who will bring it and implement it is drawing steadily nearer to us. What this great approach will bring to mankind, we do not yet know. It will surely bring us as definite results as did all the earlier revelations, and the missions of Those Who came in response to humanity’s earlier demands.” — Lucis Trust The New World Religion 124 

The Presence of Deity (Theosophy)

Charles Spurgeon: “God was here Himself—the All-worker, the King of kings, the Lord of lords? Speak with bated breath; hush, and be silent; you are in the presence of Majesty! Let us think of national calamities or of private ills with that reverence which should be inspired by a consciousness of the presence of Deity.” — The Royal Deathbed #426

Theo —sophy: “Heavenly Adam. The synthesis of the Sephirothal Tree, or of all the Forces in Nature and their informing deific essence. In the diagrams, the Seventh of the lower Sephiroth, Sephira Malkhooth — the Kingdom of Harmony — represents the feet of the ideal ^Macrocosm, whose head reaches to the first manifested Head. This Heavenly Adam is the natnra natnrans, the abstract world, while the Adam of Earth (Humanity) is the natura naturata or the material universe. The former is the presence of Deity in its universal essence ; the latter the manifestation of the intelligence of that essence.” — The Theosophical Glossary, pg. 245 

Holy Fire (Theosophy)

Charles Spurgeon: “The church needs fire to quicken her ministers, to give zeal and energy to all her members. Having this fire, she burns her way to success! The world meets her with the fire of firewood, but she confronts the world with the fire of kindling spirits, and of souls aglow with the love of Jesus Christ. She trusts not to the wit, and eloquence, and wisdom of her preachers, but to the divine fire which clothes them with energy! She knows that men are irresistible when they are filled with hallowed enthusiasm sent from God. She trusts therefore in this, and her cry is, ‘Come, Holy Fire, abide upon our pastors and teachers! Rest upon every one of us!'” — The Superlative Excellence of the Holy Spirit  

Theosophy: “In a certain sense, the task before the disciple is the evocation of the “divine fire”, Kundalini, and the infusion of the principle of Will in him by that divine fire; the golden light mingling with the red flame, to produce the colour of the mystic rose. The fiery aspiration of the disciple evokes the higher celestial fire, and the two blend in one, the holy fire which shall thereafter illumine and enkindle that disciple’s heart and life and every act.” — The Theosophical Quarterly Volumes 17-18, 1919, edited by Clement Acton Griscom pg. 226 

Divine Fire (Theosophy)

Charles Spurgeon: “Brothers, I beseech you keep to the old gospel, and let your souls be filled with it, and then may you be set on fire with it! When the wick is saturated, let the flame be applied. Fire from Heaven is still the necessity of the age. They call it ‘go’, and there is nothing which goes like it; for when fire once starts upon a vast prairie or forest, all that is dry and withered must disappear before its terrible advance. May God Himself, who is a consuming fire, ever burn in you as in the bush at Horeb! All other things being equal, that man will do most who has most of the Divine fire.” — How to Meet the Evils of the Age, Chapter 4 

Theosophy: “In a certain sense, the task before the disciple is the evocation of the “divine fire”, Kundalini, and the infusion of the principle of Will in him by that divine fire; the golden light mingling with the red flame, to produce the colour of the mystic rose. The fiery aspiration of the disciple evokes the higher celestial fire, and the two blend in one, the holy fire which shall thereafter illumine and enkindle that disciple’s heart and life and every act.” — The Theosophical Quarterly, Volumes 17-18, 1919, edited by Clement Acton Griscom pg. 226 

Heart of Flame (Theosophy)

Charles Spurgeon: “But we bless God that there are not so many of that sort, now, and we pray that the race may become quite extinct—and that every pulpit may be filled with a man who has a tongue of fire and a heart of flame and who shuns not to declare the whole counsel of God, neither seeking the smiles of men nor dreading their frowns!” — The Dumb Singing #2625 

Universal Brotherhood (Theosophical teachings):”Then One spoke – He of the mighty arm – He of the eye of power. And He inquired (speaking calm and low, and looking round on all the gathered throng) who would willing go into the world of flesh – to waken all the souls that now could hear, and teach to them the meaning high, sublime, of life; show them the Movement – flowing onward like a river vast, with but one source and end; teach them how to enter on that tide, and moving with Love – and for this Fire Divine in thee thou hast been called ‘The Heart of Flame.'” — UNIVERSAL BROTHERHOOD, Volume 15, #7-12, 

The Science of Christ (Theosophy)

Charles Spurgeon: “But oh, take care that this most excellent science, the science of Christ crucified, is not made to take a second place with you! Always put this science first—try to understand the glory of your Lord’s person—without beginning of days or end of years! Search into the purity of His character in all that He was, here below, from His birth to His death. Be conversant with Christ in all His sacred offices.” — Christ’s Perfection and Precedence #2478, 

Theosophy: “FOR the information of the reader, who, after the perusal of the preceding work, may desire to investigate the subject of Theosophy, — into which, as it appears, Saint-Martin, after passing through an other philosophical and theological studies, mystical and phenomenal, of his day, finally settled down; it having been apprehended by him to contain the true science of God and Nature, the science of Man, the science of Christ, of the Gospel, of salvation, and therefore the science of all sciences, — in order we say, to enable the reader to investigate the subject fundamentally, and that without difficulty of research for the proper books and authors for such end, we here annex the following particulars on that head, being extracted from the several publications named in connection therewith, and with the concurrence of the author, inserted in this place.” — Theosophic Correspondence, Saint Martin 

Fire of God  (in the Holy Bible, the “fire of God” means literal fire sent down from God)

Charles Spurgeon: “Go thou with the fire of God in thy hand and fling it among the stubble, and the stubble will burn. Be thou sure of that. Go thou and scatter the good seed: it may not all fall in fruitful places, but some of it will.” — How To Become Fishers of Men Sermon #1906,

Kundalini Serpent Fire: Fire of god, sacred fire, sacred white fire, and kundalini fire are all terms used for adamantine particles of light, the fuel of life breathed forth from the heart core of the supreme Creator. — Kundalini Serpent Fire

Magic: The fire of God, otherwise known as the “Father begotten Light” (44) is linked to the fire of soul: “Who first sprang from Mind, clothing the one Fire with the other Fire, binding them together, that he might mingle the fountainous craters while prepserving unsullied the brilliance of his own Fire.” — Three Books of OCCULT PHILOSOPHY OR MAGIC, Henry Cornelius Agrippa

Throws Energy (witchcraft)

Charles Spurgeon: “The force which draws us home lies in the word, ‘I will.’ Jesus Christ, our most true God, veiled in human form, bows His knee and prays, and throws His divine energy into the prayer for the bringing home of His redeemed.” — Why They Leave Us No. 1892) 

Magick: “Where the two lines cross is the only point where the sigil can ever be broken. Once the sigil is broken the binding is broken. Since Saturn’s power is only where the lines cross, the rest of the sigil will seem weak to an experienced adept who can identify it for what it is. The first instinct of the adept will be to just throw energy at the sigil until the binding is overcome and broken. However this will do nothing as throwing energy at any point other than where the lines cross won’t break the sigil, and where the lines cross are empowered by Saturn, and cannot be broken except by divine power.” — Rob’s Magick Blog

Secret Energy (Freemasonry, Witchcraft)

Charles Spurgeon: “Lastly, does your religion spring up within your soul by the secret energy of the Spirit of God? Do you feel emotions, longings, regrets and desires arising in you without any outward prompting? You do not pray by order, but because you cannot help it—you are in need, and must pray.” — Holy Water #1202 

Freemasonry: “But from which of them would he have learned those details of the Morgan trials that go to show, in the words of his excellent letter, that masonic oaths “are not considered by those who impose and take them as mere idle and unmeaning words, but as solid obligations to be practically enforced;” that the audacious conspiracy against the life of a citizen “was not, as has been commonly supposed, the act of a few ignorant men alone, but was engendered in the lodges themselves enforced under their direction and supported at their expense; the conspiracy embracing within its sweet, men of all degrees, with too much reason to believe that the secret energy of the masonic spirit had entered and polluted even the temple of Justice; and with the most demonstrative proof that the person who had entered into these unhallowed oaths; considered their allegiance to the Lodges as of higher obligation than the allegiance to the laws of their own country,” from which of them could he have learned these things, or any of them?” — A collection of letters in Freemasonry, in chronological order 1849; pg. 57. 

Witchcraft: “A Witch knows that the sacred & secret energy which flows in our body can be directed in a better way with a more balanced diet, as Chi – the vital energy – hides in our food. Eating healthy meals can provide your body, mind and aura with more energy.” 

Spiritual Energy (Theosophy, Witchcraft/Magic)

Charles Spurgeon: “Were the sham taken away, they might cry out for a real ministry. God would bestow on them one taught of the Holy Ghost, who would speak with a tongue of fire, with inward witness and with spiritual energy, resting his confidence in Gods promises and His Word.” Compassion for the Multitude #453, 

Theosophy: “When a spiritual energy is set free, it works down through the other planes of being, giving rise on each plane to a liberation of energy, and bringing about results great in proportion to the nature of the spiritual force. So that it is true in history, as you may find by study, that where spiritual forces are liberated, the intellectual life of the nation will also leap forward with tremendous energy, the emotional life of the nation will show fresh development, and even on the lowest plane of all – the physical, results will be brought about entirely beyond anything that could have been achieved by the energies of the physical plane which are set to work and which apparently cause these results.”  — Occultism, Semi-Occultism, and Pseudo-Occultism by Annie Besant

Witchcraft/Magic: “Magic spells are a way to communicate with and influence the spiritual energy that exists all around us. This same spiritual energy is the blueprint for the physical world that we live in, and when we affect the spiritual, we will soon see changes in the physical. (46b) “

Light Ineffable (Masonic)

Charles Spurgeon: “In that time before all time, when there was no day but ‘The Ancient of Days,’ when matter and created mind were alike unborn, and even space was not, God, the great I Am, was as perfect, glorious, and blessed as he is now. There was no sun, and yet Jehovah dwelt in light ineffable; there was no earth, and yet his throne stood fast and firm; there were no heavens, and yet his glory was unbounded.”Laus Deo #572

Freemasonry: “May all Elect Masons, like the Elect of God, put on charity, which is the bond of perfection. May our loins be girt about with the girdle of truth ; and finally, having been faithful in all our course, may we be brought to behold the light ineffable, and admitted into that sacred place where the sun shall no more give light by day ; neither for brightness shall the moon give light, but the Lord, our Adonai, shall be with us an everlasting light, and our God our glory. Bless us, and bless the work in which we are engaged ; and may the alliance we are about to perfect be eternal. Amen ! So mote it be!” The book of the ancient and accepted Scottish rite of freemasonry, containing instructions in all the degrees from the third to the thirty-third, and last degree of the rite, together with ceremonies of inauguration, etc. 

Ineffable Light (Masonic)

Charles Spurgeon: “This blessed hope makes us feel that it is a shame for us to sin, a shame that princes of the blood imperial of the skies should dabble in the mire like children of the gutter! We would gladly live as those who are destined to dwell in the blaze of the ineffable light of God. We cannot walk in darkness, for we are to dwell in a splendor before which the sun grows pale—in the very Godhead, itself, are we to baptize ourselves in fellowship!” — Saved in Hope, 1616, h

Freemasonry: “I like to believe that, at some day, in some manner, perhaps this Mason who received light by following the long road trod by Albert Pike might in turn pass on a ray of that light to some other seeker after  the Ineffable Light, the Light of Masonic Truth.” — LeRoy V. Brant, 32 degree, 

Freemasonry: “For Hiram there was Dionysus, for the acacia the myrtle, but there were the same mourning, the same discovery, the same rejoicing, because what had been lost was found, and then the same ineffable light, and the same sacred teaching of the name of God and the soul’s immortality.” 
Encyclopedia of Freemasonry, Albert Mackey, pg. 619

Sacred Harmony (Theosophy)

Charles Spurgeon: “’The  Lord God walked in the garden in the cool of the day,’” and Adam was privileged to hold fellowship with God, closer, perhaps, than even the angels had in heaven. But the spell of that sacred harmony was rudely broken by man’s disobedience and his dreadful fall!” — The Fainting Soul Revived #3510, 

Theosophy: “It is because the Spirit must never be without Religion, because, when the Spirit is coming towards its human birth, it is necessary that these forces of Religion should surround it, and help in the building of its earthly home. And so also with sacred Sound the new-born life is welcomed in its very incoming into this world of manifestation; that the sacred harmony may surround it, and give it the impulse in the birth hour, which shall send it on towards harmonious development.” — Building of the Cosmos, Annie  Besant

Lord of the Universe  (Freemasonry, Buddhism, Islam, Kabbalah)

Charles Spurgeon: “True Christian worship addresses God, not merely as Creator and Preserver, or as the great Lord of the Universe, but as one who is very near of kin to us, our Father, beloved of our souls.”

Freemasonry; “Indeed, Osiris is the Jesus of our Christian doctrine, the supreme Initiate or ‘Captain of Salvation’; He is the reflection and counterpart in Man of the supreme Lord of the Universe (Greek – Dionysos, Hebrew – Adonai), the ideal type of humanity.” — Freemasonry and the Doctrine of  Reincarnation

Buddhism: “O Keshava! O Lord of the universe! O Lord Hari who have assumed the form of a fish! All glories to You! You easily acted as a boat in the form of a giant fish to give protection to the Vedas, which had sunk in the turbulent sea of devastation.” — Buddha and Vishnu,

Islamic title for Allah (the Quran): “All praise belongs to God, Lord of the Universe, the Beneficent, the Merciful and Master of the Day of Judgment, You alone We do worship and from You alone we do seek assistance, guide us to the right path, the path of those to whom You have granted blessings, those who are neither subject to Your anger nor have gone astray.” — 9 things you should know about Islam,

Qabbalah: “10. When the Patriarch Abraham had comprehended the great truths, meditated upon them, and understood them perfectly, the Lord of the Universe (the Tetragrammaton) appeared to him, called him His friend, kissed him upon the head, and made with him a covenant. “

Divine Science (Magic/Theosophy)

Charles Spurgeon: “Dear young people, if you never read a sing le book of romance, you will lose nothing; but if you do not read your Bibles you will lose everything! This is the age of fiction, and therefore the age of speculation and error—leave fiction and give yourself wholly to the truth of God! Eat that which is good, and spend not your money on that which is not bread. The Bible is the thesaurus of heavenly knowledge, the encyclopedia of divine science—read, mark, learn, and inwardly digest the same, and then you will be keeping the sayings of God!” — The Warnings and the Rewards of the Word of God #2135

Theosophy: “Magic was considered a divine science which led to a participation in the attributes of Divinity itself. ‘It unveils the operations of nature,’ says Philo Judaeus, ‘and leads to the contemplation of celestial powers.’ ”  — THEOSOPHY, Vol. 52, No.  10. 

Theosophy: “‘Ancient Wisdom’ is only one name which has been applied to the Great Knowledge. It has also been called Ageless Wisdom, Divine Wisdom, Divine Science, Gnosis, Atma-Vidya, Brahma-Vidya, Gupta-Vidya, Sanatana Dharma, Esoteric Philosophy, Esoteric Science, Occult Philosophy, Sacred Science, the Wisdom-Religion, and the Secret Doctrine. It is the Esoteric Teaching which underlies all the world’s religions.” — Theosophy – An Explanation and Overview,

The Magic Circle (used in witchcraft and Masonic rituals)

Charles Spurgeon: “Carrying the text beyond its original position, we may say that over the head of all infirmities, ignorances, selfishnesses, desertions, and denials, Jesus Christ, who had loved his own that were in the world, loved them to the end. It was not possible for them, with all their follies, failings, and sins, to break through the magic circle of his affection; he had hedged them in once for all, bad bound them to himself with bonds firmer than brass, and stronger than triple steel, and neither could the temptations of hell, nor the suggestions of their own corruptions tear them from his heart.” — The Faithfulness of Jesus #810

Witchcraft: “A ritual circle (or magic circle) is a circle of space marked out by practitioners of many branches of witchcraft and ritual magic, either to contain energy and form a sacred space, or as a form of magical protection, or both.”

Rituals of Freemasonry: “In these symbols, the below left-hand Pentagram surrounded by the magic circle is Lucifer — the good god — with the one point upward and two down; the below right-hand Pentagram, again surrounded by the magic circle, is Satan — the evil god — with the two points up and the one down. These symbols depict exactly what Albert Pike is talking about in the paragraph above. He says that the evil god, whom he calls Seth or Typhon [Typhon is listed in The Satanic Bible as Infernal Names for Satan] is the adversary of the good god, Osiris; therefore, Pike is saying Osiris is Lucifer, a finding consistent with the rest of the Occult realm.” — Rituals of Freemasonry The Worship of Lucifer

Neither Give Place to the Devil! [podcast]


“Neither give place to the devil.” Ephesians 4:27

“This is a really good message!” CB

— MANY have been blinded and duped to believe that either 1) there is no devil, or 2) there is a devil but he’s not active. But God’s Word tells us that Satan, the archenemy of Christ and mankind, is active and has an organized kingdom structure: “For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.” (Ephesians 6:12)

Warning:

“Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour.” 1 Peter 5:8

The Bible tells us not to be ignorant of Satan’s devices and if we are not even aware of “the wiles of the devil,” how can we possibly discern and overcome them? (2 Corinthians 2:11; Ephesians 6:11).

Communism, any communistic form of government arrangement, is an example of the work of Satan and we know this because it steals money and freedom from the people, kills people who don’t agree, and destroys everything good.

ANY person participating in the work of Satan is a child of the devil. Satan’s work is “to steal, to kill, and to destroy.” (John 10:10) Any questions? Any activity, operation, or plan to steal the freedom or money or anything from another, is the work of Satan himself. So is to kill or destroy people or property unjustly.

—- PEOPLE EVER MAKE UP THINGS ABOUT YOU? Jesus told us we would be falsely accused (Matthew 5:11) and He also tells us never to participate in a “false report” in any way (Exodus 23:1-2). The Greek word for “Satan” means accuser. ….“for the accuser of our brethren is cast down, which accused them before our God day and night…” (Revelation 12:7-12)

NEVER EVER DRAW CONCLUSION ON ANYTHING BEFORE YOU’VE HEARD THE WHOLE STORY

“He that answereth a matter before he heareth it, it is folly and shame unto him.” Proverbs 18:13

“He that is first in his own cause seemeth just; but his neighbour cometh and searcheth him.” Proverbs 18:17 

Are not our laws in this country crafted after this truth? “Innocent UNTIL PROVEN guilty.”…

God gave us these truths for the protection of all. If, as a disciple of Jesus, you have not yet been slandered, lied about, stick around, your time is coming. David had his Shimei, Jesus had His Judas, Paul had his Alexander the coppersmith.

“Blessed are ye, when men shall revile you, and persecute you, and shall say all manner of evil against you falsely, for my sake.” Matthew 5:11 

Slander includes bringing up a sin God has already forgiven someone, and/or repeating something you have no proof of.

Beloved saints, based on what Jesus foretold us of in Mathew 5:11, we’d actually better be concerned if no one is making up lies about us …. that just means Satan is upset with the fruitful relationship you have with Jesus who says “Woe unto you, when all men shall speak well of you! for so did their fathers to the false prophets.” (Luke 6:26) In light of this truth, should we not be concerned if everyone likes us, if no one is slandering us?

It’s time to “rejoice” – to obey Jesus – when we are persecuted for that only proves that we are His!!!!!!

“Blessed are they which are persecuted for righteousness’ sake: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. 11 Blessed are ye, when men shall revile you, and persecute you, and shall say all manner of evil against you falsely, for my sake. 12 Rejoice, and be exceeding glad: for great is your reward in heaven: for so persecuted they the prophets which were before you.” Matthew 5:10-12

If someone is not being lied about, persecuted, and afflicted, they are suspect. That person is very possibly a counterfeit, a tare among Christ’s wheat.

Wolves who Weaponize and Monetize! Beware! [podcast]


Wolves who Weaponize and Monetize! Beware!

Church membership as perpetrated today was never supposed to be. It’s not found in the Scriptures. Each of His people are members of His body, His one church. Real fellowship and assembling, getting together, is biblical and yet as has always been the case, sinful men use it to exploit those who gather to worship their LORD. At the beginning and end of His ministry, Jesus destroyed the wicked leaders who were robbing the people.

“And Jesus went into the temple of God, and cast out all them that sold and bought in the temple, and overthrew the tables of the moneychangers, and the seats of them that sold doves, 13 And said unto them, It is written, My house shall be called the house of prayer; but ye have made it a den of thieves. 14 And the blind and the lame came to him in the temple; and he healed them. 15 And when the chief priests and scribes saw the wonderful things that he did, and the children crying in the temple, and saying, Hosanna to the Son of David; they were sore displeased, 16 And said unto him, Hearest thou what these say? And Jesus saith unto them, Yea; have ye never read, Out of the mouth of babes and sucklings thou hast perfected praise? 17 And he left them, and went out of the city into Bethany; and he lodged there.” Matthew 21:12-17

They are making merchandise of you just as Peter foretold! Read 2 Peter 2:1-3.

Assembling as believers is commanded by God and yet not in order to be exploited by the devouring wolves we’ve been warned to beware of (Matthew 7:15; 24:11; 1 John 4:1-3, etc.). When God’s people gather, assemble, it is rather to be edified in Christ, richly blessed in the Word of God (Acts 2:42-47; Colossians 3:16; Hebrews 10:24; 2 Peter 2:1-3).

“If you go to the brick and mortar buildings and you don’t give your money then you’re nobody to them. I was out searching for a place where I could stay and hear the true gospel but that’s not happening in these brick and mortar buildings. These people need to truly repent.” Veronica

Church membership is just another attempt, lure, and seduction to misplace the faith and allegiance and identity of Christ’s saints away from Christ Himself (1 Corinthians 1:29-2:5; 2 Corinthians 4:5; Colossians 2:18-19). Beloved of God, you are bought with the precious blood of Jesus Christ (1 Corinthians 6:19-20; 7:23). This highest price—the crucifixion of Jesus Christ on a cross —was paid by the Son of God to purchase you to Himself and the Father (1 Timothy 1:15; 2:5-6; Titus 2:14, etc.). HE is your identity and thereafter His true remnant body who live for Him daily, who are crucified with Christ perpetually, not counterfeit church goers/members. Memorize Galatians 6:14. For more on the body of Christ, read Romans 12, 1 Corinthians 12, and Ephesians 2 and 4. God’s Word is your final divine authority, not mere men or organizations of mere men (Mark 13:31; 2 Timothy 2:15; 3:16-17; 2 Peter 1:20-21, etc.).

“Thank you for exposing this. I used to attend an assembly of God here in Olympia and I found it to be false. After a couple years my eyes were opened and I left because a lot of it was a new apostolic reformation or something similar to that they were just off, and at one point they had a homosexual male on the platform scolding the church for how they are mean and nasty to homosexuals because they think they’re better than them. I was attacked for forsaking the assembly and received other statements urging me to come back so I wouldn’t be sinning.” Bella

Anyone trying to get you to become a member of their church is seeking to monetize you to build a church business at your expense.

The reason why many professing Christian do not see the things we are seeing in the Word today in this message, is that they are not in God’s Word for themselves.

“Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.” 2 Timothy 2:15

Most who claim Christ don’t know His Word and many don’t want to know it, otherwise they’d be in it and it would be in them.

My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge: because thou hast rejected knowledge, I will also reject thee, that thou shalt be no priest to me: seeing thou hast forgotten the law of thy God, I will also forget thy children.” Hosea 4:6

QUESTION ASKED:

“What if someone is born again, biblically baptized by immersion, but not a formal member of any local church, however they attend church regularly. Could they partake in the Lord’s supper?”

REPLY:

Yes, who else is a higher authority than the Most High who saved you into His church/family? WHAT other “membership” would be needed as if Christ’s saving you and putting you into His family as a member of His body wasn’t enough? Read 1 Corinthians 12. You are a member of the one universal blood bought, born again body of Christ. Any other so-called church membership is a fraud and an afront to Christ. He didn’t die and rise again to then hand over the reigns to a bunch of self-serving enterprising, greedy pharisaical nicolaitan wolves. Read Jeremiah 23; Ezekiel 34; Matthew 23; 2 Peter 2:1-3; Revelation 2:6, 15. Oh and this isn’t even to mention that  these fake “churches” are 501(C)(3) corporations. They have entered into an unholy alliance with the state and by doing so have affronted, rejected the Savior. They entered into a contract with the state unnecessarily and are now under the antichrist dominion of the state, who can tell them where and what they preach and can’t preach.”

“This church membership topic riles me up! Many judge us because we don’t go to church. I want nothing to do with how apostate they have become. Most are in willful sin and could care less. Jesus is not there!” Karen Cochran

One dear sister in Christ shared this:

NEARLY EVERY LOCAL “CHURCH” IS A COMPLETE SCAM IN THIS LATE HOUR, JUST AS WAS FORETOLD.

“Partnership, as defined by most ministries, today, is you send them a check every month & they send you a letter with some Scriptures. Very sad. However, I take refuge in this Scripture – 1 Peter 4:17. It’s not a political problem, it’s a spiritual problem. During the scamdemic, I suggested we give groceries to those who needed them, have a cookout with burgers & hotdogs, offer healing to those who needed it, fellowship among the people. The church had a wonderful full circle drive so the people could pull in, we’d fill their trunk with groceries, etc. I was told “NO.” I offered to handle all of it, pay for it, still “NO.” The pastor wanted to remain shut down. I went ahead & did it from my home. I hired a Christian group to sing, we preached the Word, fed the people, prayed for anyone who wanted it. Quitting should never be a part of our vocabulary. The religious manipulation is off the charts. Filling seats & manipulating people for financial gain is repulsive.” Charlotte

The fact that most brick and mortar church building based churches are not run biblically in no way negates the need for essential, real, biblical fellowship. To this point, a brother in Christ named Peter writes:

“People want faith community even if there is church membership and mandatory tithing. People want social life with other believers. It’s safe and not that sinful. Yet, I’m against church buildings but I believe in accountability to one another and God.” Peter

Church membership ropes you into an unholy alliance with the state and a state owned church. Example:

“During the scam-demic, many churches hid behind Romans 13 and said they must obey the government. Yet there are many examples in the Bible where God’s people did not obey because it went against God and was evil. Just as in modern day with all the covid supposed mandates. Shadrach, Meshach, Abednego did not obey. Daniel, and the apostles. And many more disobeyed civil authorities when they demanded things that went against God and His will. The fake churches used Romans 13 because really they were afraid of standing for Jesus! So they cowered in fear! Hiding behind masks, closed doors and vax’s. But wearing masks was not such a big deal because most already are wearing them. Hiding behind their pharisaical and self-righteous attitudes pretending to holy.” Karen Cochran

God exposed these fake “churches” and fake “Christians” for all to see. “Then Peter and the other apostles answered and said, We ought to obey God rather than men (Acts 5:29). The false churches had already sold the Savior down the river for the state when they signed up for their 501C3—which is a contract with lots of small print. That contract they chose to enter into, makes those “churches” the government’s, the state’s churches. As we saw with the scamdemic, the state tells what they can preach, where they can preach, and when they can preach. I walked into a “church” to visit some friends during this period and was shocked that they all had on masks, were doing the 6-foot satanic ceremony rule etc. I departed. Sickening sacrilege.

“God’s true church can’t be contained in a building…God’s true church is being led out of these lukewarm businesses labeled as churches….God’s true church isn’t a man led organization ….it’s a relationship with GOD Himself. God’s true church isn’t a temple made by hands….their very own body is where God resides.” Kathy Lemonds

A MEME FROM A SNAKE “PASTOR”

In a meme, “Pastor” HB Charles Jr. is promoting Michael Foster, who writes:

“Nothing grows a Christian like a serious commitment to a single church week in and week out for years and years. Not conferences. Not social media. Not even personal devotions. The local church is where mature Christians are slowly forged in the fires of mundane faithfulness.” – Michael Foster

Notice “a serious commitment to a single church.” This is something God never commanded and it contradicts the essential responsibility He gave anyone who would be HIS disciple. The fruit of good church attenders makes it more than abundantly clear that this whole church attendance, church membership push is diabolical. It’s irrefutably producing bad fruit (Matthew 7:15-21). Let’s further test ‘pastor” Michael Foster’s statement, shall we? So John the Baptist, the apostles Paul, John, Peter, etc., didn’t attend church weekly or “week in and week out” and so you are saying they didn’t grow? Wow. Michael Foster is a typical programmed pawn—an indoctrinated dupe. He reeks of pride and greed (2 Peter 2:1-3). He’s building a church busine$$. Read his words again and think $ and how he is bearing false witness against the LORD he deceitfully pretends to represent as he is seeking to ensure his income for a long time to come. Wolves  are making merchandise of their prey (2 Peter 2:1-3)!

“Never heard of the church building places of ‘worship’ until Constantine came along, the father of that demonic religion called ‘Catholic.'” Mark Owen

Seminarian marketing to farm the community—not to preach the whole counsel of God but rather gain more church members. They push for their pawns to invite others in order to get them more members which means more money. They campaign for more money for their unbiblical “church” projects, and yet never push for more personal Bible reading, evangelism, more of the crucified life, more worship of God, repentance, holiness, the fear of the LORD, etc…. and you still don’t see what’s going on?

Wow!

Okay so you go to a church building on Sunday morning yet don’t seek God in His Word and prayer daily? You are backslidden—which means you are away from God. Any person saved in the past and yet who is not presently hungering and thirsting after more of Christ, of His righteousness, has backslidden and in need of true repentance before it’s too late.

“Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be filled.” Matthew 5:6

“The activities and ‘fellowship’ only among themselves can be a big distraction to serving the Lord and doing His work and will. Not to mention keeping you enslaved to the false unbiblical doctrines they preach there. No one is allowed to disagree with the pastor(s) and leaders.” B.

Totally disagree with these “pastors” who are wolves building church businesses. How many “good church members” do we see winning souls, evangelizing, feeding Christ’s sheep His Word, denying self, taking up the cross, devouring God’s Word, living the crucified life, talking about judgment, repentance, overcoming all sin, and being ready for Christ’s return daily? None. Jesus says we know them “by their fruit” (Matthew 7:16, 20). 99% of local churches = bad fruit. The LORD’s true under shepherds are preparing and equipping Christ’s disciples “for the WORK of the ministry” not to do THEIR (the pastor’s) bidding, work in his little Sunday morning circus gathering where he performs and collects money. Only counterfeits prop up, support counterfeits (Ezekiel 22:25-27; Hosea 4:9; 2 John 10-11).

“But there were false prophets also among the people, even as there shall be false teachers among you, who privily shall bring in damnable heresies, even denying the Lord that bought them, and bring upon themselves swift destruction. 2 And many shall follow their pernicious ways; by reason of whom the way of truth shall be evil spoken of. 3 And through covetousness shall they with feigned words make merchandise of you: whose judgment now of a long time lingereth not, and their damnation slumbereth not.” 2 Peter 2:1-3

Here’s a biblical perspective: Being a good church member at a local “church” is never once taught in the Bible. No it’s something false prophets push for their own self-serving purpose and agenda. It’s for their benefit, not yours.

1 Chronicles 21:1 David was influenced by “Satan” in numbering the people …. this is a tool in order to control, manipulate and monetize the people…

GOD never called you to be a “good church member.” No, He called you to repent, to deny yourself, to live the crucified life, to seek His holy face daily with reckless abandon, to fellowship daily with His people, and to obey His Great Commission mandate.

THE FACT that you have no Great Commission involvement, no personal evangelism, no real fruit of good works in your life…. doesn’t this clearly reveal that you, as a good church member, are merely propping up a church busine$$, funding a fraud?

Can a man or woman of God sit back and just allow lost souls to go to hell without doing something about it, without having great conviction of conscience toward repentance, refreshing, and Great Commission Gospel action?

The next time some churchianity dupe begins to preach to you about “going to church”…. Tell them you don’t wait till Sundays, you fellowship in prayer and the Word daily with other saints of Christ (Acts 2:42). Ask them when the last time was that they personally preached the Gospel, fed the flock of God the Word of God, and led someone to Jesus…. mic drop, crickets.

“Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be filled.” Matthew 5:6

Okay so you go to a church building on Sunday morning yet don’t seek God in His Word and prayer daily? You are backslidden—which means you are away from God. Any person saved in the past and yet who is not presently hungering and thirsting after more of Christ, of His righteousness, has backslidden and is in need of true repentance before it’s too late.

The Truth about Fellowship and Going to “Church” 

Perhaps a simple observance of the earliest followers of Jesus would inform us that they weren’t always “in church” serving some wolf but rather they went “every where preaching the word,” etc. (Acts 8:4), right? Oh and their gatherings were quite simple with no religious gold gathering bureaucracy! See Acts 2:42.

What they do is basically make you their good church member then get you to go tell others so that their church busine$$ grows that way. Notice how no one is being equipped “for the work of the ministry” (Ephesians 4:11-14) by being taught to minister and to do it out in the world daily…. to bring the blessing, the bless-ed Gospel to the people. No. Instead they become like little agents of their local church which is now their idol. They are sent out to invite folks to church instead of bringing the KING to those same people.

Wake up. Repent before God of wasting His time and resources on such wolves in sheep’s clothing. Deny self, take up the cross, follow Jesus (Luke 9:23-24).

“Being a Christian isn’t about making a weekly trip to a so-called church building. No, it’s about BECOMING the church, an actual place where Jesus lives.” Matt McMillen

“Jesus answered and said unto him, If a man love me, he will keep my words: and my Father will love him, and we will come unto him, and make our abode with him.” John 14:23

“God is greatly to be feared in the assembly of the saints, and to be had in reverence of all them that are about him.” Psalms 89:7

Good Church Member or True Disciple of Christ?

Wolves can be known in that they don’t get their prey in the Word for themselves (2 Timothy 2:15).

Going to be entertained on Sunday mornings as what some call “church” does not replace daily Bible reading and prayer and the cross (Luke 9:23-24; 2 Timothy 2:15; 1 Thessalonians 5:17, etc.).

Anyone not in God’s Word and living a life of prayer every day as they seek His holy face fervently, has told the LORD that He is not important to them … and they will not make it (Matthew 25:1-13).

There is NO work, no-thing transpiring on the earth more important than the work of our LORD’s Gospel. Most of the other things are vying for your affections. Read Luke 21 and Colossians 3:1-4. JESUS is coming.

Summation:

The instruction of Hebrews 10:24 is from God and yet never intended to give license to men to build their own kingdoms, to exploit and use the people for their own self-serving and greed-driven agenda.

Yes there are elders ordained in Christ’s body and they are to feed (John 21:15-17), to warn (Colossians 1:28), to teach sound doctrine to the members of Christ’s body (Titus 2:1), to teach them discernment (Ezekiel 44:23), etc. This can be in a regular meeting time and place. That’s not a sin. The sin comes in when we don’t see biblically stated things being accomplished and that’s how we know those are false shepherds and this would involve most local brick and mortar based “churches” today.

The truth is self-evident. Fruit. Not all but the vast majority of local churches are absolutely apostate as the Bible foretold (2 Timothy 3:13; Matthew 24:11; 1 Timothy 4:1-2, etc.). There is no blood of Jesus, no cross, no crucified life, no judgment to come, no sin, no repentance, no holiness, no readiness for Christ’s return, no KJB, etc. Apostasy. Fellowship as defined by Holy Writ is essential, not church attendance. Saints, people do not need us. They do not need our fellowship. They need Christ and His people and that should be 24/7. The headquarters of the true saint is the throne of our God, right? (Jeremiah 17:12; Hebrews 4:14-16; 7:24-26). That doesn’t mean that attending a fellowship weekly is wrong and yet, is it a real fellowship? One should examine the fruit and ask: Am I growing in Christ? Am I growing to know Him (John 17:3)? Do I live a repented life and a crucified life? Is the extent of my relationship with the LORD going to church/church attendance? Do I care for and help the body of Christ? Do I evangelize? etc. The professing church has largely misused Hebrews 10:25. Fellowshipping, assembling is essential, is commanded, and that would be according to how Scripture defines assembly fellowship, not the modern church (Acts 2:42-47; Colossians 3:16, etc.). If one is part of a rare truly Christ-centered, Scripture-rich fellowship, that’s a blessing. The problem is that most aren’t. And they must be exhorted to “try the spirits” as 1 John 4:1 instructs.

Is Karma Biblical? [podcast]


The Karma Concept is a Diabolical Con Job and a counterfeit for God’s system of sowing and reaping: No disciple of Jesus should ever use the word/term “karma” unless exposing it for the lie that it is.

First off, the concept of karma is antichrist in that it teaches that people, sinners, can earn their own way into a better eternity by living good or kindly in this life. Lie.

The concept of karma is based on the lie that men will be reincarnated and that sinners, based on their own performance on earth in their first life, will be rewarded accordingly in their next life. Well the Bible teaches that mankind is hopelessly sinful and cannot forgive or save himself (Genesis 6:5,12; Isaiah 59:16; Jeremiah 17:9; Ezekiel 22:30; Romans 3:9-29; Galatians 2:21, etc.). The Word of God informs us that our next destination will be either Heaven or hell, not coming back to the earth for a new life or do-over. The Bible teaches us that “ALL have sinned” against our Maker and our eternal, irrevocable destination will be based on whether or not we receive or reject His gift of salvation granted solely on the basis of the perfect and precious blood of the Son of God who died on the cross and was raised again to take away our sins (Romans 3:21-25; 5:1-2; 6:23; 2 Corinthians 5:19-21; 1 Timothy 2:5-6; 1 Peter 1:18-19; 3:18, etc.).

The shed blood of Jesus Christ is the only payment that could have ever and did fully satisfy the claims of the Father’s justice to redeem fallen mankind back from sin.

“He shall see of the travail of his soul, and shall be satisfied (paid in full – “It is finished”): by his knowledge shall my righteous servant justify many; for he shall bear their iniquities.” Isaiah 53:11

1 Peter 1

“Forasmuch as ye know that ye were not redeemed with corruptible things, as silver and gold, from your vain conversation received by tradition from your fathers; 19 But with the precious blood of Christ, as of a lamb without blemish and without spot: 20 Who verily was foreordained before the foundation of the world, but was manifest in these last times for you, 21 Who by him do believe in God, that raised him up from the dead, and gave him glory; that your faith and hope might be in God. 22 Seeing ye have purified your souls in obeying the truth through the Spirit unto unfeigned love of the brethren, see that ye love one another with a pure heart fervently: 23 Being born again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, by the word of God, which liveth and abideth for ever.” 1 Peter 1:18-23 

Karma is a lie.

David Taylor writes:

“Sowing and reaping: is always a true biblical principle, and for those who heap up judgement for themselves.”

“God judgeth the righteous, and God is angry with the wicked every day.” Psalm 7:11

“The curse of the Lord is in the house of the wicked: but he blesseth the habitation of the just.” Proverbs 3:33

“ALL men” have sinned against our Maker and are thereby guilty and separated from Him because He is “Holy, holy, holy” (Isaiah 6:3; Revelation 8:4).

“…they are all under sin; 10 As it is written, There is none righteous, no, not one … 23 For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;” Romans 3:9-10, 23

God’s Word declares all men to be sinners, who have all broken His holy commandments, and who will reap eternal death which is irrevocable separation from God, if they die unforgiven by God through Christ (Romans 1-6, etc.).

“For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.” Romans 6:23

How have we sinned against God? To begin with, we’ve all lied and the Bible says: “Thou shalt not bear false witness.” We’ve all used the name of the LORD in vain – “Thou shalt not take the name of the LORD thy God in vain; for the LORD will not hold him guiltless that taketh his name in vain.” We’ve all stolen something along the way – “Thou shalt not steal” (Exodus 20).

Are You a Good Person? Take this Test to See – Will God accept you into His Holy Heaven when you die?

In and of ourselves, outside of Christ, here’s what all men look like to God:

“But we are all as an unclean thing, and all our righteousnesses are as filthy rags; and we all do fade as a leaf; and our iniquities, like the wind, have taken us away.” Isaiah 64:6

In short, karma denies our need for Christ and says we can earn or merit our own way into comfort and blessings without Jesus.

“For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: 9 Not of works, lest any man should boast.” Ephesians 2:8-9

“Reincarnation is taught by true believers in Karma. Reincarnation is the rebirth of the soul in a new body. Depending on the religion or the particular philosophy the soul can make an appearance as another person, animal or plant as it makes its way to an eventual escape from the cycle of birth, death, and rebirth.” owlcation

The Bible term and associated definition, truth, is sowing and reaping, and not karma.

“Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap. 8 For he that soweth to his flesh shall of the flesh reap corruption; but he that soweth to the Spirit shall of the Spirit reap life everlasting.” Galatians 6:7-8 

In the Hindu and Buddhist religions, karma is the concept, the teaching that depending on how a person lives their life on earth determines how they will be reincarnated in their next life. It is the idea that how you live your life, this one, will determine the quality of life you will have after reincarnation. In these false religions there is no savior and so you are earning your own way to God and His blessings. False..

“For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: 9 Not of works, lest any man should boast.” Ephesians 2:8-9

Salvation is the gift of God purchased by the precious blood of His only begotten Son Jesus Christ.

“For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.” John 3:16

Karma is a false teaching. No born again believer should ever use this word unless they are exposing it for what it is.

Reincarnation is a lie and therefore so is karma because karma is the mythical, erroneous idea that the way you live this life will determine your plight in the next life. But the Bible says:

“And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment:” Hebrews 9:27

Also, what do Satan’s heresies of purgatory and karma have in common? – They both promise a second chance. But the Bible says when we die our eternal destination is final – Heaven or hell.

Judgment immediately follows death, not a second chance.

Satan wants people to think they have a second chance and not to take this one and only life seriously. The Bible tells us that immediately upon death we are judged to go to Heaven or hell (Luke 16:19-31). When we die we will stand before our Maker to be judged for our one life in this one body on the earth (Romans 14:10; 2 Corinthians 5:10; Revelation 20:11-15, etc.). There will be no second chance. We will not return as someone or something else.

“Then shall the dust return to the earth as it was: and the spirit shall return unto God who gave it.” Ecclesiastes 12:7

“And these shall go away into everlasting punishment: but the righteous into life eternal.” Matthew 25:46

“And he (thief on the cross next to Jesus) said unto Jesus, Lord, remember me when thou comest into thy kingdom. 43 And Jesus said unto him, Verily I say unto thee, To day shalt thou be with me in paradise.” Luke 23:42-43

The way you live this life – in Christ or out of Christ – will determine your eternal destination, as in Heaven or hell.

“The way of life is above to the wise, that he may depart from hell beneath.” Proverbs 15:24

World religions teach that man earns his own way to God. God’s Word teaches that all men, born after Adam, are insolvently sinful (unable to pay the debt) and in need of the saving grace of God which is exclusively found in the crucified and risen Savior, Jesus Christ.

More Verses Biblically Disproving Reincarnation:

“But man dieth, and wasteth away: yea, man giveth up the ghost, and where is he? 11 As the waters fail from the sea, and the flood decayeth   and drieth up: 12 so man lieth down, and riseth not: till the heavens be no more, they shall not awake, nor be raised out of their sleep.” Job 14:10-12
