Correction – are you Qualified to Correct?

God has used many of His people to rebuke this fool (me)….yes as members of Christ’s body we have each other to help us be accountable to HIM and to grow in the grace of Christ – Psalms 141:5; 2 Peter 3:18. David prayed:

“Let the righteous smite me; it shall be a kindness: and let him reprove me; it shall be an excellent oil, which shall not break my head: for yet my prayer also shall be in their calamities.” Psalms 141:5

One of the ways God corrects, changes us is through bless-ed rebukes.

“The blueness of a wound cleanseth away evil: so do stripes the inward parts of the belly.” Proverbs 20:30

Sometimes we need wounding unto life. It produces needed healing, wholeness (Proverbs 27:5-6).

At some point, every man needs to be confronted by his Nathan (2 Samuel 11-12; Psalms 141:5). When God has to send a Nathan, it’s because He loves us (Revelation 3:19).

May the LORD bless abundantly all the Nathans! They care! (Proverbs 27:5-6) Nathans are true men of God as opposed to the many cowards who pose as such these days but don’t possess the corresponding fruit!

 

“For the commandment (written Word) is a lamp; and the law is light; and reproofs of instruction are the way of life:” Proverbs 6:23

WHAT’s the Savior’s goal if one of His children go astray, fall? What’s God’s will for using you in that process?

“Brethren, if a man be overtaken in a fault, ye which are spiritual (mature in Christ), restore such an one in the spirit of meekness; considering thyself, lest thou also be tempted. 2Bear ye one another’s burdens, and so fulfil the law of Christ.” Galatians 6:1-2

Jesus teaches that if we presently have any sin at all in our own lives, we are 100% disqualified from pointing out or condemning anyone else for any sin they have in their own life.

“He that is without sin among you, let him first cast a stone at her.” John 8:7

Jesus teaches us that The sin that should concern us the most is our own.

Any questions?

“Judge not, that ye be not judged. 2 For with what judgment ye judge, ye shall be judged: and with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you again. 3 And why beholdest thou the mote that is in thy brother’s eye, but considerest not the beam that is in thine own eye? 4 Or how wilt thou say to thy brother, Let me pull out the mote out of thine eye; and, behold, a beam is in thine own eye? 5 Thou hypocrite, first cast out the beam out of thine own eye; and then shalt thou see clearly to cast out the mote out of thy brother’s eye.” Matthew 7:1-5

If one’s aim, goal isn’t restoration, such a person is not qualified to approach another concerning sin.

There is no excuse for sin and yet, Jesus didn’t deal harshly with those who fell, as long as they were honest and weren’t pretenders – pharisees (See Matt. 23). He never dealt more harshly than when He spoke to the religious actors (pharisees). Remember to always consider just who the LORD is talking to in His Word when you are studying. ….Jesus knows the hearts of all men and knows who is sincerely repentant and who isn’t (2 Cor. 7:9-10). He cannot be mocked (Gal. 6:7). Consider how the Son of God spoke to the women at the well whom He said had previously had 5 husbands and now was living with another man (John 4). What did Jesus teach concerning the two men who went to pray? (Lk. 18:9-17) The one who prayed only 7 words of sincere, honest, repentance was heard while the one who proudly touted his own self-righteousness and prayed 34 words, was rejected. Sin must be dealt with among God’s people and yet, it must be dealt with according the Jesus’ and His apostles clear instructions and never out of self-righteous pride (Rom. 16:17-18; 1 Cor. 5:11-12; Gal. 6:1-3; James 5:19-20). The novice must never undertake such but rather continue to get the logs from his own eyes so God can later use him to bring restoration – that’s the goal (Matt. 7:1-5; Gal. 6:1-2). “Ye which are spiritual” or seasoned in Christ’s grace, mature, are to “restore” the fallen to their relationship with Jesus (Gal. 6:1-2). Also, Jesus instructed us to not go public but rather to go straight to the one we believe is in sin – first (Matt. 18:15-18). To say we are led to correct while simultaneously contradicting/violating the very instructions of Scripture, reveals our own delusionment (1 Cor. 14:33). This bring offences contrary to God’s will as expressed in His Word (see Rom. 16:17-18).

Tip: If we are too eager to correct others, this identifies us as novices (1 Tim. 3:6). The LORD wants to do a work in our own hearts and lives and will use us to help restore others to Him later (1 Cor. 11:31-32; 2 Cor. 13:5).

If we are not truly meek, we are not yet “spiritual” or spiritually mature and not fit yet to bring correction. The mature disciple is not looking for someone to correct or nit-picking like a pharisee (Matt. 23:23-25). He does not evilly surmise or guess about others’ motives and actions (1 Tim. 6:5). He does not read into situations but rather believes to the best (1 Cor. 13:5-7; 1 Pet. 4:8).  When we become ready to help others, we will be moved upon by the Spirit of God to do so and won’t need to be looking to correct others. That would identify a pride-filled, self-righteous heart.

Biblical Example of a Transgressor being Saved from Death – Restored

  • 1 Corinthians 5 – sin
  • 2 Corinthians 2 – repentance and restoration

So after the fornicator in the Corinthian church was turned over to Satan by the body of Christ, he repented and was restored to fellowship with Christ and His people (1 Corinthians 5; 2 Corinthians 2). And here was Paul’s follow-up instructions:

“Sufficient to such a man is this punishment, which was inflicted of many. 7 So that contrariwise ye ought rather to forgive him, and comfort him, lest perhaps such a one should be swallowed up with overmuch sorrow. 8 Wherefore I beseech you that ye would confirm your love toward him.” 2 Corinthians 2:6-8

Saints, when someone returns to Christ, we must rejoice as does God and love them, pour Heaven’s healing oil on them, celebrate the return of the prodigals!!!! (Luke 15)

Also….

Matthew 18:15-17 ….This passage is often misapplied. DOES Matthew 18:15-17 apply to wolves? No. Notice how He begins – “Moreover if thy brother (not a lost soul or wolf) shall trespass against thee…” What Jesus was teaching us in Matthew 18:15-17 is for the members of His body exclusively. Wolves are Satan’s plants to deceive His body and not members His body but rather ministers of Satan (2 Corinthians 11:12-15).

“Moreover if thy brother(not a lost soul or wolf) shall trespass against thee, go and tell him his fault between thee and him alone: if he shall hear thee, thou hast gained thy brother. 16 But if he will not hear thee, then take with thee one or two more, that in the mouth of two or three witnesses every word may be established. 17 And if he shall neglect to hear them, tell it unto the church: but if he neglect to hear the church, let him be unto thee as an heathen man and a publican.” Matthew 18:15-17

John Wesley on Calvinism, Once Saved Always Saved, and Conditional Security

John Wesley on Calvinism, Once Saved Always Saved, and Conditional Security

“Calvinists, who deny that salvation can ever be lost, reason on the subject in a marvelous way. They tell us, that no virgin’s lamp can go out; no promising harvest be choked with thorns; no branch in Christ can ever be cut off from unfruitfulness; no pardon can ever be forfeited, and no name blotted out of God’s book! They insist that no salt can ever lose its savor; nobody can ever ‘receive the grace of God in vain’; ‘bury his talents’; ‘neglect such great salvation’; trifle away ‘a day of grace’; ‘look back’ after putting his hand to the gospel plow. Nobody can ‘grieve the Spirit’ till He is ‘quenched,’ and strives no more, nor ‘deny the Lord that bought them’; nor ‘bring upon themselves swift destruction.’ Nobody, or body of believers, can ever get so lukewarm that Jesus will spew them out of His mouth. They use reams of paper to argue that if one ever got lost he was never found (John 17:12); that if one falls, he never stood (Rom. 11:16-22 and Heb. 6:4-6); if one was ever ‘cast forth,’ he was never in, and ‘if one ever withered,’ he was never green (John 15:1-6); and that ‘if any man draws back,’ it proves that he never had anything to draw back from (Heb. 10:38,39); that if one ever ‘falls away into spiritual darkness,’ he was never enlightened (Heb 6:4-6); that if you ‘again get entangled in the pollutions of the world,’ it shows that you never escaped (2 Pet 2:20); that if you ‘put salvation away’ you never had it to put away, and if you make shipwreck of faith, there was no ship of faith there!! In short they say: If you get it, you can’t lose it; and if you lose it you never had it. May God save us from accepting a doctrine, that must be defended by such fallacious reasoning!” ~ John Wesley

OSAS people make a vain attempt at redefining the words of Scripture to fit their own self-serving agenda of lukewarmness, cross-less rebellion. For example they hyper-focus on “eternal” in the term “eternal life” while intentionally refusing to synthesize the whole of what Scripture states. Purposely, they do not distinguish between initial and final salvation and refuse to believe that after being saved, the recipient of His salvation must “endure to the end” to be “saved.” (Matthew 10:22; 24:13; John 15:6; Colossians 1:23; Hebrews 3:6, 12-14; 10:26-39; 2 Peter 2:20-21; Revelation 2-3, etc.) They hyper-focus on the word “gift” and teach that a gift could never be lost which the rest of Scripture does not agree with. They then take the word “sealed” and make it to be permanent which it cannot possibly be because the same Greek word for “sealed” is used of Jesus’ tomb which we all know was NOT permanently sealed – it was unsealed when Jesus came out of that grave! (Matthew 27:66) In this they bear false witness against the LORD and act like some Scriptures are more divinely inspired than others. This practice reveals the evil and deceit of their own hearts. While they scream, “context, context, context,” they themselves syphon things out of the immediate and overall context of Scripture. Not just some Scripture in the Bible but rather “ALL scripture is given by inspiration of God…” (2 Timothy 3:16-17) It must all be synthesized, put together, compared (1 Corinthians 2:13). Error will result in the hearts and lives of those who do not personally search, study, and revere “ALL scripture” in God’s Word.

Arrogant Bible Correctors Rebuked

If you are waiting for me to let this subject alone, please don’t hold your breath!

Recently to a man who claimed to have a verse that the King James Bible translated incorrectly, I replied:

“You are parroting foolish lies. This is laughable and lame. Die to it. Stop it. Repent. Something is not right in your heart. The supposed “errors” of Satan’s detractors are laughable and most of the time easily dispelled. Satan is the first one who questioned and changed God’s Word as you are now doing and so it more than obvious that Satan is influencing you (Genesis 2:17; 3:1, 4). There’s always an evil spirit behind the questioning and supposed ‘correcting’ of God’s Word.”

Firstly, we should ask: Why do people question the Bible? When people judge the Bible or claim it has errors, or cast doubt upon the validity of it, they usually have no examples. Why? Hint: The unrepentant are seeking to dismiss themselves from personal accountability. Get to know John 3:19-21.

Some are so very self-centered that they believe that if they can’t personally understand something that it should not be in God’s Word or that it wasn’t translated correctly. Run from such a counterfeit!

WHENEVER you hear some fraud pretending to correct the preserved Word of God in English, the KJB, run (Psalms 12:6-7). “Beware of the scribes.” (Luke 20:46)

Beware of those who believe they can correct, they can change or decide what of God’s preserved Word is the truth, is accepted. The Bible reveals that such men are of the seed of Satan himself who was the first to cast doubt upon and change the words of God (Genesis 2:17 and 3:4 and Genesis 3:1). God put His Word in place and it is the final divine authority standard. He didn’t need the puny permission of Satan’s “scholars” of today.

NEVER foolishly pretend to correct the Bible! No, correct your own foolish self!

If I were you I’d be careful never to correct the Word of God, making an utter fool of yourself. It’s amazing how many arrogant and foolish “ministers” dare to attempt such. The King James Bible is God’s preserved Word to the English speaking people and when we hear some dupe say things like “a better translation” would have been ….. then we know we are dealing with a counterfeit who doesn’t fear the LORD and doesn’t believe God’s Word and that he is wiser than the Almighty and that he can decide what the Word of God should say.

The King James Bible is the preserved Word for the English speaking peoples. Beware of the arrogant dupes who because they don’t understand the words claim, pretend it’s a mistranslation. Their not understanding the use of a word or words in the King James Bible  doesn’t mean it was not a good word, doesn’t mean it was a mistranslation. His lack of understanding doesn’t equal a mistranslation or bad translation. Much of the time you hear these pawns make such claims it’s due to their not liking what the Bible clearly states. Get a clue. Cease trying to correct the Word of God.  

Jesus told us that it is “SATAN” who comes to take away the Word of God (Mark 4:15). He casts doubt on it as he did in the Garden. Read Genesis 3. Those who claim God didn’t preserve His Word call the Almighty a liar and manifestly reveal that they are of Satan (Psalms 12:6-7). They have no proof of such claims and are in damnable unbelief as agents of Satan himself who is behind all questioning of God’s Word (Genesis 3). The “Yea, Hath God Said?” Temptation

It’s utterly arrogant and laughable for amateurs to question God’s Word, correct it, and pretend to know a better translation for certain words and phrases in the Bible…. not only for the sin they commit before God but also the foolishness of vainly thinking they know more than the masterfully linguistic translators God assembled to give us the King James Bible. Some of those men mastered numerous languages before they were 8 years old.

Some among us are so deeply in sin and darkness that they have no idea just how puny they are and so they arrogantly attempt to correct God’s Word SMH. Repent sinner … They pretend to know Greek and Hebrew better than the most scholarly cache of scribes ever assembled, the 54 who translated the King James Bible in fulfillment of the promise of Psalms 12:6-7. Devils are manifesting.

Sherry Todd writes: “For the past week or so, Satan has been sending his agents to me, telling me, there is no infallible word of God. No pure word of God. I keep reminding him the word of the Lord endureth for ever. And 1 Peter 1:23-25 INCORRUPTIBLE is infallible. Now, perhaps these folks are born of the vine of Sodom. But I am born again of the INCORRUPTIBLE WORD of God. KJB. Satan is very busy during his short time. Repent for the kingdom of God is at hand. Amen. Thank you Lord for Your Word.”

IF YOU DARE seek to correct God’s Word, you reveal yourself as an arrogant, hell bound antichrist. Repent devil.

—– DEVILS OF THE DAY: ARROGANT BIBLE CORRECTORS WHO pretend to have more knowledge of the Hebrew and Greek than the 54 divinely-ordained translators whom God used to bring us His Word in English. The LORD always does what He says and He gave the English speaking peoples of the world His written Word in fulfillment of His promise found in Psalms 12:6-7.

BEWARE OF THOSE WHO PRETEND TO BE WISER THAN THE ALMIGHTY AND MORE LEARNED THAN THE 54 GOD-ORDAINED SCHOLARS WHO GAVE US THE BLESSED KING JAMES BIBLE. SOME OF THOSE MEN KNOW 4-6 LANGUAGES FLUENTLY BEFORE THEY WERE 10 YEARS OLD. THEY WERE COMPLETELY LEARNED IN HEBREW AND GREEK AS NO ONE IS TODAY, NAMELY THE NOVICES WHO ATTEMPT TO CORRECT GOD’S PRESERVED WORD TO THE ENGLISH SPEAKING PEOPLES OF HIS WORLD – THE KING JAMES BIBLE (PSALMS 12:6-7). THESE ARE GULLIBLE AND IGNORANT AS THEY VENTURE TO CORRECT THE BIBLE AND ARE LIKE A GNAT SHAKING HIS FIST AT AN ELEPHANT. THEY ARE BLIND, AND NEED TO SHUT THEIR MOUTHS, HUMBLE THEMSELVES IN REAL REPENTANCE, AND LEARN. THESE ARE WISE IN THEIR OWN EYES (PROVERBS 3:7; TITUS 1:13).

The King James Bible is the preserved Word of God for the English speaking people of the world.

MOST MODERN, SELF-PROCLAIMED “SCHOLARS” ARE MERE PAWNS OF THE FIRST ONE WHO BEGAN QUESTIONING AND PERVERTING, ALTERING GOD’S WORDS, SATAN (GENESIS 2:17; 3:1, 4). THEY ARE WILLINGLY BLIND AND YET POSE AS SCHOLARS BECAUSE THEY LEARNED TO SEARCH OUT A LITTLE HEBREW AND GREEK. ASK THEM: 1) “DO YOU SPEAK HEBREW OR GREEK?”, 2) “DID OR DID NOT GOD GIVE US HIS WORD IN OUR OWN LANGUAGE?” THE KING JAMES BIBLE TRANSLATORS, MANY OF THEM, FULLY KNEW NUMEROUS LANGUAGES BY THE AGE OF 10. GOD RAISED THEM UP TO GIVE US HIS WORD IN OUR LANGUAGE (PSALMS 12:6-7).

So, He’s calling you to simply and resolutely repent and shut the evil mouth that seeks to foolishly and groundlessly cast doubt upon His very Word …. following in the footsteps of your father the devil who was the first to cast doubt upon God’s Word – Genesis 2:17; 3:4; John 8:44. Make no mistake: Such an apostate undertaking emanates from an unrepentant heart of rebellion. Though they pretend to be God’s children, they have crept in unawares and their evil fruit reveals the real master of the Bible corrector puppets. The LORD is calling you to repent and correct your own wicked, sin-filled, depraved heart that seeks to justify your “right” to live as you wish vainly believing God gave us no certain Word (Proverbs 22:17-21). This is the very lie of hell and only bought by those who are headed there due to their rebellion against God (John 8:44). How dare you cast doubt on the Most High who gave us His Word! You have openly called Him a liar:

“The words of the Lord are pure words: as silver tried in a furnace of earth, purified seven times. 7 Thou shalt keep them, O Lord, thou shalt preserve them from this generation for ever.” Psalms 12:6-7

It’s one thing to read a new version (which I highly discourage) and it’s yet another thing to go so far as to defend Satan’s obvious counterfeits and to seek to cast doubt on the divine promise and Word of God!

Calling God a liar by saying something in His Word is not true is the clear evidence that one does not know Him!

The underlying sin of this evil unbelief is pride and rebellion ….. After all, if God didn’t give us His pure Word, we aren’t accountable, right? Wrong, because He did keep His promise and we have His Word. And no, the LORD’s promise to give us His Word in our language can’t possibly be the new versions because they butchered known truth from His Word which we have from the Majority Family of manuscripts (Textus Receptus which simply means Received Text). Could we call these people Bible agnostics? … You will notice that these very people crassly and conveniently ignore the obvious diabolical corruptions of the new versions while vainly attempting to nitpick God’s Word. Whether they know it or not, they are pawns of the enemy of Christ who is the enemy of all souls.

Little do they know, anyone who reads and defends the new versions is partaking with the Catholic cult from which the new versions all emanate in that they come from the butchered manuscripts.

The New Versions are Vatican Corrupted and Controlled “bibles “

Surely if one can rightly correct God’s Word, his own words are now justified and he will not be accountable, right? Wrong.

There is an eternal curse (includes irrevocable confinement in the lake of fire) pronounced upon those who add to or take away from God’s Word and I believe that could include anyone who dares cast doubt upon God’s Word which is paramount to taking away (the authority) of it.

“For I testify unto every man that heareth the words of the prophecy of this book, If any man shall add unto these things, God shall add unto him the plagues that are written in this book: 19 And if any man shall take away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God shall take away his part out of the book of life, and out of the holy city, and from the things which are written in this book.” Revelation 22:18-19

Antichrist snakes are the devils who refuse to believe God kept His promise to preserve His Word to all generations (Psalms 12:6-7). WHY? – Simple: They are rebels at heart who refuse to obey that Word. They want to consult with other antichrists by reading the new versions which make a new way, another way, a false gospel. They are “accursed” (Galatians 1:6-9). All who are true to the LORD “HATE every false way.” (Psalms 119:104, 128)

Recently I had the privilege of addressing a certain Bible corrector:

ANOTHER arrogant antichrist saying that “Holy Ghost” is a wrong translation. He sought to correct God’s Word due to his own puny understanding blocked. Here’s the rebuke he was sent before he was blocked:

“Holy GHOST” appears 183 times in God’s Word. “Ghost” simply means “spirit.” It’s only because of the modern words “ghost” being utilized 99% of the times when referring to a demon that people think it only refers to such. This ridiculous conclusion gives us a clue to who these people really are – to give this modern use of the word preference over God’s preserved Word! Repent. You are speaking against the LORD sinner… as you arrogantly seek to correct God’s Word instead of repenting… all because in your puny human mind you don’t understand.

MESSAGE RECEIVED:

“But the King James Bible added words.”

REPLY:

The only things the KJB added were bridge words to bridge the gap between languages in translations which is always necessary when translating from one language to another. AND, the KJB is the only Bible that put those added words in italics so the reader knows which words were added. And the verse you bring up is a good example. Take a look at the KJB on this verse and notice that I will all-caps the added word. Just 1 word was added and it’s “man”:

Luk 17:34  I tell you, in that night there shall be two MEN in one bed; the one shall be taken, and the other shall be left.

So, is “man” wrong to put here by the translators? NO, it’s the exact word that’s supposed to be here and the text proves that: “One shall be taken” can only be referring to a person!

MESSAGE RECEIVED:

“I believe the bible is the true word of GOD, but i believe some pastors are the ones who lie about what it says and then others are confused cause they never read it..i also believe the bible says knowledge will be revealed in the last days….but some think no other knowledge is needed.”

REPLY:

Well, God will never contradict His written Word. It’s the highest revelation so no other knowledge is needed. By His Holy Spirit He gave us His Word and by His Spirit in us He teaches us, leads us, and reveals “ALL things that pertain unto life and godliness” to His true children (2 Peter 1:3-4; 1 Cor 2:12-14). “Knowing this first, that no prophecy of the scripture is of any private interpretation. 21 For the prophecy came not in old time by the will of man: but holy men of God spake as they were moved by the Holy Ghost.” (2 Peter 1:20-21) Also, closely read 2 Timothy 3:16-17. To say other knowledge is needed is to say that God lied to us and didn’t supply in His Word, by His Holy Ghost, “ALL things” His people needed for all times (2 Peter 1:3-4; 20-21, etc.).
