The global invasion of a priesthood of beguilers have put a modern face on historical heresies. Men and women posing as pastors, prophets, evangelists, and apostles make millions preying on the biblically-illiterate, sick, poor, and emotionally fragile. Behind a veil of glamour, many self-proclaimed pastors mask their spiritual abuse with claims of special position and power from the Holy Spirit. The Original Gospel pulls back the curtain to reveal the truth behind this lucrative industry.

“For we are not as many, which corrupt (pervert, twist, misuse) the word of God: but as of sincerity, but as of God, in the sight of God speak we in Christ.” 2 Corinthians 2:17

WHEN you get into God’s Word for yourself, honestly, your eyes are going to be opened to the great prophetic apostasy transpiring (2 Thessalonians 2, etc.). Most pastors today are nothing more than greedy scammers who are building their own kingdom using the name of Jesus and you (Philippians 3:18-21). Nothing has changed (Ecclesiastes 1:9; Isaiah 9:16; 56:10-12; Jeremiah 23; Ezekiel 34; Matthew 24:11; 2 Timothy 3:1-13; 2 John 7-11, etc.).

Most in “ministry” today are using God’s Word for their own self-serving agenda, building their own empire, not Christ’s kingdom! Beware (Matthew 16:18; 1 Corinthians 1:29-2:5; 2 Corinthians 4:5; Philippians 3:18-19).

The person not crucified with Christ will communicate using only things that will bring accolades to himself. They do not want the heat, the persecutions that come with preaching the original Gospel Jesus and His apostles preached. These are the self-serving cross-less wolves Paul warned us about specifically (Philippians 3:18-19). Jesus warns: “Woe unto you, when all men shall speak well of you! for so did their fathers to the false prophets” (Luke 6:26).

THE self-serving lightweights, seminarian scammers, many call “pastor” don’t get YOU INTO THE WORD for yourself because they simply want you to continue to patronize their church busine$$! Get a clue! This is completely contrary to Christ’s apostle Paul (2 Timothy 2:15; 3:16-17; 4:2-4). ANY so-called “preacher” who won’t offend you is a self-serving wolf! RUN NOW!

HAVE you noticed how these new lightweight “churches” brag about their “Top 10 Core Values”? What a joke! In other words they pick out 10 socially acceptable things most people will like and that’s their top 10. And they do this instead of simply announcing that they endeavor to adhere to the whole of the Bible. KJB. Lame.

In order to sell books, some modern authors seek to make our life with Christ appear flowery and romantic. This is why they intentionally, carefully selectively sprinkle a few Bible verses as to not spoil the plot and plan of their own book, written with their personal goal and agenda of selling many of them. Yet God’s Word doesn’t romanticize our walk with Him. No, to the contrary, it warns of severe sufferings for walking with Christ. Loving God is spoken of in terms of worshiping and obeying the LORD and not experiencing some romantic thrill. Anyone who has been saved for a few years knows Jesus’ words to be true – “These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world” (John 16:33). True disciples of Jesus, as opposed to wolves in sheep’s clothing in our midst, give full disclosure to prepare, protect and set expectations. But “tribulation” doesn’t sell books now does it. In their unrealistic, fairy tale writings, these authors conveniently fail to mention the “much tribulation,” “divers temptations” and “perils” we face as a result of serving the LORD in this fallen world (Acts 14:22; 2 Corinthians 11:26; James 1:2).

“In journeyings often, in perils of waters, in perils of robbers, in perils by mine own countrymen, in perils by the heathen, in perils in the city, in perils in the wilderness, in perils in the sea, in perils among false brethren;” (2 Corinthians 11:26) ……Jesus promises those who walk with Him will be “hated of all men for my name’s sake” (Matthew 10:22). Does this sound glamorous to you? The smooth handed beguilers paint a picture completely inconsistent with what we read in God’s Word. While Jesus and His holy apostles came straight forward with warnings, in order to prepare the hearts of His people, modern wolves hide these severe threats and warnings.

Today, annually there are more than 60 million books sold in the Christian genre.

Modern “Christian” authors have and are capturing an enormous audience. Using a unique, captivating writing style in and of itself is not a sin. Yet, painting a picture foreign to the setting of God’s Word is sin.

Couching the truth in a setting that varies from what Holy Scripture presents is dangerous at best and can mislead the reader. Beware of many modern “Christian” writers who do just this.

DOES the gathering you call “church” align with the order seen in the early church records in the New Testament Scriptures? How do you know either way if you aren’t diligently searching the Holy Scriptures daily? Acts 2:42-47 is a good place to begin.

When you read Acts 2:42-47, stop and think of the simplicity of worship and how it all centered on Christ and resulted in the edification of His body. So much in our modern “churches” has been added, commercializing the gospel for the self-serving purposes of those doing such. It has been said that “Simplicity is the ultimate form of sophistication” and such applies to the order of God when His saints gather to worship HIM! Would Jesus not again cleanse the temple if He were here in the flesh today?

Rule of thumb for every disciple of Christ: Read God’s Word, the King James Bible, at least 3 times as much as the reading of any other book. This includes the time we spend listening to preachers. Bible study is primary. The importance of knowing God’s Word for ourselves cannot be overstated (2 Timothy 2:15). There’s simply no way to discern truth from error unless we are deeply grounded in the truth, God’s Word, for ourselves. Our time in the study of God’s Word is the most important thing we do upon this earth.

The man who presents a partial gospel is a poison peddler (Acts 20:20, 27, etc.).

SAINTS, we must not be like most “pastors” who pick and choose what they want to teach from God’s Word for personal advantage, personal gain. NO! Rather, we must endeavor like Paul to disclose the whole counsel of Holy Scripture (Acts 20:20, 27).

It is intentionally misleading people to neglect to warn them and prepare them for difficult times to come. As is on record in Colossians 1:28, Christ’s apostle Paul did the following three things to prepare Christ’s body for the return of Heaven’s King:

Preach
WARN
Teach

To inaccurately portray is to betray.

PWT = Preach, WARN, Teach

“Whom we PREACH, WARNING every man, and TEACHING every man in all wisdom; that we may present every man perfect in Christ Jesus:” Colossians 1:28

Did you catch what the apostle Paul did to prepare the church to meet Christ?

Evil wolves are known in that they do not warn their prey (their audience) of the reality of the rigorous sufferings every disciple of Jesus must “endure” (Matthew 10:22; 24:13). Christ and His apostles gave full disclosure of the sufferings, afflictions, persecutions every true follower of Jesus must endure. They hid nothing and to do so is deceit.

“And ye shall be hated of all men for my name’s sake: but he that endureth to the end shall be saved. … And many false prophets shall rise, and shall deceive many. 12 And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold. 13 But he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved.” Matthew 10:22; 24:10-13

Does this sound glamorous to you?

Are you learning the real, original Gospel of Christ through daily, diligent study of the Scriptures for yourself, OR, are you being sold a glamorized, commercialized, sensationalized false gospel?

Saints of Christ, “Holy Scripture” is given to God’s people to make us “wise” and fully “furnish” us in this life (2 Timothy 3:15-17). As you read through Holy Scripture, watch for the divine warnings. The Bible verses posted here in this section are but a taste of the full unveiling of the realities of the Christian life. Ask: WHAT did Jesus warn us of and WHY would the Great Shepherd of His sheep have done so?

“Confirming the souls of the disciples, and exhorting them to continue in the faith, and that we must through much tribulation enter into the kingdom of God.” Acts 14:22

“Persecutions, afflictions, which came unto me at Antioch, at Iconium, at Lystra; what persecutions I endured: but out of them all the Lord delivered me. 12 Yea, and all that will live godly in Christ Jesus shall suffer persecution.” 2 Timothy 3:11-12

Whether via the pulpit or pen, to pervert the original Gospel of our LORD by presenting it for self-serving purposes and therefore rearranging or giving partial disclosure, is to betray the LORD and reveal oneself to be a wolf, the very enemy of Christ.

Reprehensible Reciprocal Relationship

God’s Word clues us in to the reciprocal relationship between wolves and those they mislead. Of God’s own professing people, the prophet Jeremiah told us that “My people love to have it so” (Jeremiah 5:31).

“The (false) prophets prophesy falsely, and the priests bear rule by their means; and my people love to have it so: and what will ye do in the end thereof?” Jeremiah 5:31

Unrepentant mere professors will only patronize and support that which does not call for them to truly repent, deny self, live the crucified life, and walk with Jesus for real. Like the professing believers Isaiah addressed, they want “smooth things.”

“That this is a rebellious people, lying children, children that will not hear the law of the LORD: 10 Which say to the seers, See not; and to the prophets, Prophesy not unto us right things, speak unto us smooth things, prophesy deceits:” Isaiah 30:9-10

Peddling the gospel for money is nothing new. To do so, one must present a partial gospel which is a false gospel. When Jesus was cleansing the temple He stated:

“And said unto them that sold doves, Take these things hence; make not my Father’s house an house of merchandise.” John 2:16

By the Holy Ghost, the LORD’s apostle Peter specifically warns us of those who use “feigned words” to make a dollar off of God’s people:

“And through covetousne($$) shall they with feigned (fictitious) words make merchandise of you: whose judgment now of a long time lingereth not, and their damnation slumbereth not.” 2 Peter 2:3

The Spirit of the LORD would expose the wolves in our midst who are making a fortune as they spring board off of false premises, using psychobabble. John Eldredge for example builds the whole message of his book “Wild at Heart” off of the false premise that “men have become soft.” While this may be true, and if it’s true that all the more means that those men need the Word of God. The reason they have been softened is due to the previous false leaders who didn’t get them into the Word for themselves whereby full masculinity would have taken its rightful place. So John Eldredge is perpetrating the error by giving men his own philosophy instead of God’s Word. Yet the fact that men have become softer is no premise for a message in a book supposedly representing the LORD. Instead of simply preaching the Word and thereby establishing divine truth and seeing God build His kingdom in the lives of His men, John Eldredge begins on a faulty foundation. In that lie, he catches, snares, lures, and puts the hook in gullible, un-grounded novices and counterfeits.

The Gospel is not a fairy tale. No, it’s for true disciples. Books that seek to glamorize the Gospel are for unrepentant lazy, refuse-to-get-into-God’s-Word-for-themselves counterfeits.

Laurie Cox writes:

“I threw out a lot of of books from the beginning of my walk [in Christ] that were error, this (John Eldredge book) was one of them. The Word of God is the Greatest Book that we should be in to.”

In case you need more evidence of the threat of human authors, here is a specific warning from Christ. Jesus specifically warned us about the writers, the scribes.

“Beware of the scribes (writers).” Mark 12:38; Luke 20:46

Paul spoke of denouncing all deceit and presenting God’s Word just as it’s written:

“But have renounced the hidden things of dishonesty, not walking in craftiness, nor handling the word of God deceitfully; but by manifestation of the truth commending ourselves to every man’s conscience in the sight of God.” 2 Corinthians 4:2

Some modern “Christian” writers couch things in such a way as to appeal to the sensual nature, the uncircumcised hearts of the unrepentant. In doing so they become wealthy in this fleeting world as they mislead their readers. These who will give full account before a holy God, fulfill the prophetic utterance found in 2 Timothy 4:3-4.

“For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears; 4 And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables.” 2 Timothy 4:3-4

“Fables” here means stories. And that’s exactly what the glamorized “Christian” books are – fairy tale stories. They are not according to Scripture but rather a romanced version full of psychology and half-truths that deliberately leave out the severe judgment coming on all rebels, all who die in sin.

To tickle ears, one must remove the essential doctrines of the original Gospel, thereby removing the “threat” of convicting ones audience. You know, the doctrines of repentance, bringing forth good fruit to prove you are truly in Christ, personal holiness, the holiness of God, judgment to come, eternal damnation for all who die in sin, the crucified life (cross), brokenness, fearing God, the the soon return of Christ, etc.

The cross is the divine power generator of the Gospel. There is no victory outside the crucified life (Galatians 2:20). It’s all surface level wasted words if there’s no cross! (2 Corinthians 4:10-12)

SAINTS, if there’s no CROSS in his message, he’s a wolf! 100%

YOU know when you are right with God when you are running TO the cross message and not AWAY from it! “Enemies of the cross” of Christ “mind earthly things” and not the things the LORD commanded (Philippians 3:18-19).

Their very book titles give away the deceit contained therein: Titles such as Sacred Romance, Wild at Heart, and Ragamuffin Gospel are designed to sell books and deceive readers. These titles alone do not align with the picture Jesus’ followers gain from reading the pure Word of God, the King James Bible. This would mean that the authors of such books are “accursed” for preaching another, a false gospel (Galatians 1:6-9).

“For ye have perverted the words of the living God, of the LORD of hosts our God.” Jeremiah 23:36

Misrepresenting the LORD is not limited to failing to declare the full contents of Holy Writ (Acts 20:20, 27). Unlike Scripture, in these fairy tale volumes, there are no convicting or direct statements. This is intentional so as to cater to the unrepentant. The demands of the original Gospel repel those who are rebels at heart against the LORD. For example:

“If any man come to me, and hate not his father, and mother, and wife, and children, and brethren, and sisters, yea, and his own life also, he cannot be my disciple.” Luke 14:26

“And whosoever doth not bear his cross, and come after me, cannot be my disciple.” Luke 14:27

“So likewise, whosoever he be of you that forsaketh not all that he hath, he cannot be my disciple.” Luke 14:33

“Whosoever shall seek to save his life shall lose it; and whosoever shall lose his life shall preserve it.” Luke 17:33

Is your favorite minister giving you verses like these above or is the wolf intentionally avoiding them in order to beguile you into a false gospel?

At all cost, the divine message of Holy Scripture must be tainted, toned down, and glamorized in order to sell books that mislead readers.

Sometimes perhaps we limit the “false prophets” and “false teachers” we’re so often warned about in Scripture to those who stand in pulpits on Sunday morning. Not. As someone has aptly stated: “The pen is mightier than the pulpit.” Unknown

“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

Misrepresenting the LORD is the identifying work of the wolves we are warned about in God’s Word. This deception includes both the refusal to preach the whole Word and also in painting a dishonest, misleading picture of the Christian life that is not seen in the Bible. Some modern authors project a lightness, frivolity, a novelty, which is never so seen or experienced on the pages of Holy Scripture. For example, while they deceitfully claim to be Christian writers, you will never hear a false leader, writer, etc., dare mention Bible truth such as:

“And whosoever shall offend one of these little ones that believe in me, it is better for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck, and he were cast into the sea. 43 And if thy hand offend thee, cut it off: it is better for thee to enter into life maimed, than having two hands to go into hell, into the fire that never shall be quenched: 44 Where their worm dieth not, and the fire is not quenched. 45 And if thy foot offend thee, cut it off: it is better for thee to enter halt into life, than having two feet to be cast into hell, into the fire that never shall be quenched: 46 Where their worm dieth not, and the fire is not quenched. 47 And if thine eye offend thee, pluck it out: it is better for thee to enter into the kingdom of God with one eye, than having two eyes to be cast into hell fire: 48 Where their worm dieth not, and the fire is not quenched. 49 For every one shall be salted with fire, and every sacrifice shall be salted with salt. 50 Salt is good: but if the salt have lost his saltness, wherewith will ye season it? Have salt in yourselves, and have peace one with another.” Mark 9:42-50

One of the reasons you will never hear the above passage mentioned by modern wolves, the lame pulpiteers or literary liars of our day, is that the vast majority of them read and use modern fake news “bibles” which removed the above passage and many others. Fake New “Bibles” Exposed

This misrepresentation breeds false hope and ultimately leads to great discouragement. Glamorizing the Gospel is dangerous to souls. Women are especially susceptible to this lure and snare. This glamorization of the Gospel, void of any of the warnings or the convicting truths found in Scripture, is misleading at best and out of the context of God’s Word. When you take a step back to consider the words of some modern authors, you will discover that in their plot and subject matter, they position you and not Christ at center stage. In doing this they are setting up the reader for failure. | Modern Church Exposed

Dear reader: So you listen to a man you think is a true preacher for Christ who never speaks BIBLE words, truths such as the holiness of God, the holiness of true saints, repentance, the eternal damnation of all who die in sin, the essential crucified life of every true disciple of Jesus, or the return of Christ for a bride who is without spot or the stain of sin but rather holy? (See Ephesians 5:25-27.) And you still think he’s of God?

Identifying those who Mislead

Such men who present a false gospel are “accursed” and to be marked in order to warn and protect the people of God (Galatians 1:6-9).

“Now I beseech you, brethren, mark them which cause divisions and offences contrary to the doctrine which ye have learned; and avoid them. 18 For they that are such serve not our Lord Jesus Christ, but their own belly; and by good words and fair speeches deceive the hearts of the simple.” Romans 16:17-18

We must beware of those who are marketing, branding, and building their own name and “by good words and fair speeches deceive the hearts of the simple.” They have lured in and captured the heart affection of the people, intercepting them from Christ! These are antichrists or those who’ve replaced Christ with themselves. Anti means in place of.

WHILE MOST of the men people call “pastor” today are presenting fancy, stylish messages to draw attention to themselves, to their “church” or ministry, the great apostle wrote:

“That no flesh should glory in his presence. 30 But of him are ye in Christ Jesus, who of God is made unto us wisdom, and righteousness, and sanctification, and redemption: 31 That, according as it is written, He that glorieth, let him glory in the Lord. 1 And I, brethren, when I came to you, came not with excellency of speech or of wisdom, declaring unto you the testimony of God. 2 For I determined not to know any thing among you, save Jesus Christ, and him crucified. 3 And I was with you in weakness, and in fear, and in much trembling. 4 And my speech and my preaching was not with enticing words of man’s wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power: 5 That your faith should not stand in the wisdom of men, but in the power of God.” 1 Corinthians 1:29-31; 2:1-5

Real ministry that glorifies God comes through crucified vessels and brings attention and glory to Christ alone and not to the mere human messenger (2 Corinthians 3:5; 4:5, etc.).

Many modern authors who pen “Christian” books carry the minds of people away in an unrealistic phenomenon unlike what is produced from reading pure Scripture from the King James Bible. Think about this in light of how the Holy Ghost through Paul warns us of those who “by good words and fair speeches deceive the hearts of the simple” (Romans 16:17-18).

Two authors who present an unrealistic portrait of the life of an authentic follower of Jesus are John Eldredge (Wild at Heart) and Brennan Manning (Ragamuffin Gospel) specifically come to mind. It should also be noted that Brennan Manning is a full blown Calvinist heretic. | Calvinism Exposed

Prayer: Holy Father in Heaven, I come to You in the name of my LORD Jesus Christ. LORD, please circumcise my heart and grant the deepest repentance for my sin of rebellion, for self-idolatry. Please forgive me of my sin of forsaking You, for not studying Your pure Word and therefore glorying in the writings of mere sinful men who falsely pose as Your servants, Your scribes. Jesus, please break me to the deepest parts as only You can do. I return to You now LORD Jesus as the first love of my life. In Jesus’ name, amen.

John Eldredge Exposed | False Prophets Busted and Exposed | The Sensual Seduction and Solicitation of the Modern Church!

Concerning one of John Eldredge’s books, one former reader notes:

“I threw away this book when in the 5th or 6th chapter he references & praises the work of Agnes Sanford. Agnes Sanford was a heretic. She believed the world was saved by the breath of Jesus upon his death, that the world is saved even today by his “vibrations and energy” in the world, that we have a spirit body, she leaned towards both Gnosticism & Modalism all at once, & that’s just scraping the surface. It would be one thing had he used her as a reference, then said she had other teachings he would encourage the reader to shy away from, but XYZ was a good point she was right about, but he didn’t do that. He used her as a great reference on spiritual healing, and that is dangerous. He doesn’t tell the reader anything else about her, not only leading the reader to believe she was a woman of God, but also deceiving the reader to believe he himself is a man of God, when in reality he likely espouses some of the same teachings, or at best isn’t aware of them; though, that is doubtful if he knows who she is to be referencing her to begin with. I won’t waste my time with people who 1. Use teachings of heretics to back up his/her own teachings or arguments. 2. Lead others to follow the teachings of heretics. 3. Who espouse the teachings of heretics. Please do your research on Agnes Sanford, and realize that if this man is an admirer of her teachings then he should not be given any of your time or attention.” SM

The Benefits of Knowing and Delighting in the LORD [podcast]

Delighting ourselves in Him

“Delight thyself also in the LORD; and he shall give thee the desires of thine heart.” Psalms 37:4

Loving God with a Whole Heart, our Whole Being

“Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind. 38 This is the first and great commandment. 39 And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. 40 On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets.” Matthew 22:37-40

Abiding in Christ, Asking

“If ye abide in me, and my words abide in you, ye shall ask what ye will, and it shall be done unto you.” John 15:7

Jesus Must Be Our “First love”

“Nevertheless I have somewhat against thee, because thou hast left thy first love. 5 Remember therefore from whence thou art fallen, and repent, and do the first works; or else I will come unto thee quickly, and will remove thy candlestick out of his place, except thou repent.” Revelation 2:4-5

“That Your Joy May be Full”

“And in that day ye shall ask me nothing. Verily, verily, I say unto you, Whatsoever ye shall ask the Father in my name, he will give it you. 24 Hitherto have ye asked nothing in my name: ask, and ye shall receive, that your joy may be full.” John 16:23-24

“That is the only place I want to be at the feet of Jesus drinking in His word. Soaking up all He has to say to me! I do not ever want to be arrogant enough to believe I can make it without Jesus. Everyday I tell Him how much I need Him. I am nothing without Jesus!! Oh how I long to be with Him! Yearning for the day when I shall see Him in the clouds. Coming to take us home! Hallelujah!” Karen Cochran

Truly Delighting in the LORD

“Many take this verse out of context (Psalm 37:4). For many years all I would hear Christians say was, ‘He will give you the desires of your heart.’ This then becomes all about you. They would leave out the first part, which says you must delight yourself in the Lord. I came to realize that when you delight in Him, He changes your heart, and you begin to desire what He desires. He aligns your heart with His heart!” Karen Cochran

The subject matter of your prayers reveals if you are about you, or about Jesus.

To illustrate our relationship with Christ, one write of old noted:

“The life of self is death.

The death of self is life.”

There cannot and will not be a resurrection until there is a death. Death and burial must precede raising up. Read Romans 6 each morning this week and ask God to help you life a doornail dead life!

Am I delighting in the LORD? If not, how can He possibly grant the desires of my heart?

“Delight thyself also in the LORD; and he shall give thee the desires of thine heart.” Psalms 37:4

When we delight in the LORD, our lives are crucified with Christ, we are one with Him and He is filling our hearts with His desires – to worship, love, and obey Him. What we ask Him for in prayer will change. Instead of “LORD, please give me this or that fleeting trinket,” it will be “LORD, please let this life be crucified with Thee. Help me to love You more. Use me to edify Your people and minister Your bless-ed Gospel to the lost souls You died and raise against to save.”

“For whom he did foreknow, he also did predestinate to be conformed to the image of his Son, that he might be the firstborn among many brethren.” Romans 8:29

Run from any wolf who is not squaring you up regularly to inform you that the LORD mandates your death so that He can fill and raise your life upward, Heavenward, for His eternal glory.

YOUR PRAYER: Holy Father, thank You so very much for sending Your only begotten Son to find, rescue, forgive, and save me into Your glorious eternal kingdom. Please help me to know and love You more. Sanctify my life and conform me to the image of Christ. Please wash me afresh with Your precious blood LORD Jesus. Use me to help others know You dear LORD. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

The Importance of Private Prayer [podcast]

“But thou, when thou prayest, enter into thy closet, and when thou hast shut thy door, pray to thy Father which is in secret; and thy Father which seeth in secret shall reward thee openly.” Matthew 6:6 Private prayer is essential to the disciple. Jesus reveals here that those who seek His face in prayer privately, will be used of Him publicly! Are you at Christ’s feet? Do you live a life of prayer? Have you ever studied the life of Christ and beheld the many instances of His prayer life? “And in the morning, rising up a great while […]

Firstly, since there are many ungrounded flakes today claiming God is telling them things or leading them, let’s speak of the danger of using God’s holy name 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.” Exodus 20:7 It’s a dangerous proposition to be attaching the holy, the very name of the LORD to things He is not saying. Such is the work of counterfeits, false prophets. Read the severe warning in Jeremiah 23:30-40 on this matter. We know for […]

Is Loving God Enough? Must We Fear Him? [podcast]

Often, I’ve heard seminarians and modern “Christians” reject the biblical concept, the divine command to fear God. Both loving God and fearing God are divine commands (Ecclesiastes 12:13; Matthew 22:37-39; Luke 12:4-5, etc.). Yet we must ask: Is loving God enough? Is loving the LORD all we need to do? Will saying we love God keep you out of sin? It’s a nice platitude, yet this is false humility. Trite. Holiness by way of the fear of the Lord is an essential to remaining, abiding in Christ. May God instill in the depth of our being His holy fear – […]

Cons and Crooks who Do Not Preach the Cross [podcast]

“For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is the power of God.” 1 Corinthians 1:18

Those who do not preach the cross prove that they believe the cross is “foolishness.”

The know that many will leave if they were to preach the crucified life. And they are in it for the money, the acceptance of mere men, not Christ. Make no mistake, the Holy Ghost through Paul warned us specifically about this generation of counterfeits, these “evil men and seducers” who “wax worse and worse.” (2 Timothy 3:13) They’ve raised up a generation of self-love counterfeits who have a mere “form of godliness” and are “denying the power (authority of Jesus) thereof: from such turn away.” (2 Timothy 3:1-13)

The con men who commandeer today’s apostate church world want you “in church” so they get paid and yet where did the apostle Paul or any of the apostles instruct anyone to go find a good church or “attend church every Sunday”? Chapters and verses please

Why is lack of attending a local fellowship listed as a sin in the New Testament canon?

What qualifies a man to be an elder? certainly not seminary which are wolf factories invaded by the jesuits in 50’s and 60’s. All seminarians are vatican indoctrinated. The first they the jesuits did was replace the real Bible, the KJB with fake vatican corrupted new version “bibles.”

In His Great Commission command, did Jesus ever command “Go ye into all the world and find a church and be a fruitless, lukewarm, good church member?” OR …. Go teach and preach my Word? (Matthew 28:18-20; Mark 16:15)

In the early days of the Gospel, when persecution hit Jerusalem, God’s Word records this: “Therefore they that were scattered abroad went every where preaching the word.” (Acts 8:4) This clearly reveals that they were equipped by the apostles “for the work of the ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ:” (Ephesians 4:11-12) Jesus and apostles never trained anyone to become good church members or attenders.

IF YOU ARE ARGUING TO PUSH THE IDEA THAT ALL DISCIPLES OF JESUS MUST GO TO A SUPPOSED “OFFICIAL” CHURCH BUILDING ON SUNDAY MORNINGS AND YET YOUR OWN PASTOR ISN’T CONSTANTLY PREACHING THE CRUCIFIED LIFE AS AN ABSOLUTE ORIGINAL GOSPEL ESSENTIAL….. THIS IS CLEAR PROOF YOU ARE SITTING UNDER WOLVES AND NOW DEFENDING THEM AND WILL BE JUDGED WITH THEM (2 John 9-11).

Isn’t it interesting that those who push the “go to church” agenda are the ones who stand to profit from such? Are you being made merchandise of? (2 Peter 2:1-3)

Christ’s true disciples do what HE did – direct you to the cross, the crucified life – and not some apostate modern church run by a fake pastor, using a fake “bible”, and preaching a fake “Jesus.” WHAT did Jesus teach was necessary to follow Him – going to church or taking up the cross, living the crucified life, daily?

“And he said to them all, If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross daily, and follow me. 24 For whosoever will save his life shall lose it: but whosoever will lose his life for my sake, the same shall save it.” Luke 9:23-24

“Many try to crucify their flesh in their own strength. This is impossible. It takes a complete and total surrender to Jesus first. Then the Holy Spirit will show you all the ways you are not like God. Then it is not a struggle. You let Jesus have control. Your job is to obey and take your flesh to the cross to be nailed there. Dead and buried. This is how the fruits of the Spirit are born in us! If we are saved by the blood of Jesus, we will not let sin reign in our mortal bodies. We now have the power of Christ to resist sin. It should never have dominion over us. We are now servants of righteousness and holiness. We are to walk in the newness of life that we have in Christ. Do not serve sin! Serve Jesus!” Karen Cochran

Is the cross, the crucified daily life essential to following Jesus? Yes or no?

“And whosoever doth not bear his cross, and come after me, cannot be my disciple.” Luke 14:27

Memorize Galatians 2:20 today. Meditate upon and live it daily.

“But those mine enemies, which would not that I should reign over them, bring hither, and slay them before me.” Luke 19:27

“Behold, the days come, saith the Lord GOD, that I will send a famine in the land, not a famine of bread, nor a thirst for water, but of hearing the words of the LORD:” Amos 8:11

Fellowship with other saints is vital and yet we have to navigate these times of apostasy.

MESSAGE RECEIVED:

“Not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together” is a Biblical command (Hebrews 10:24-25). It was also demonstrated and practiced in the early church (Acts 4:31, Acts 11:26, Acts 15:25, Acts 20:7, Romans 12:3-8, 1 Corinthians 11:17-34, 1 Corinthians 14:23-26, 1 Corinthians 16:1-2) . Missionaries may not always be able to attend the local church that sent them out but their heart is there and a big part of the mission should be establishing new local churches, like Paul did. All believers should desire to meet with fellow like minded Scriptural believers for fellowship, labor, and worship together unto God. Those without a body mentality are self centered.”

REPLY:

As Jesus commanded, the earliest followers of Jesus cross-walked with Jesus “daily” and fellowshipped “daily.” (Luke 9:23-24; Acts 2:46; 5:42). Today we have people who are impressed with themselves for meeting weekly in a setting that is called “church” that is not even biblical. Churchianity vs Christianity.

Acts 2:42 – “And they continued stedfastly in the apostles’ doctrine and fellowship, and in breaking of bread, and in prayers.” This is the true model of simple, Christ-centered fellowship. Regrettably the bureaucracy mob of wolves infiltrated long ago. Most local “churches” are commandeered by seminarian wolves (Ezekiel 22:25-27). In the first decades after Christ was raised from the dead, the apostle Paul wept bitterly over the hoards of wolves who would come and make a busine$$ out of the church, who would devour the sheep of Christ, for whom He came and died (Acts 20:20-32). Jesus had already cleansed the temple in divine fury over this very thing (Matthew 21; John 2). They the apostle Peter warned us of those who would “make merchandise of you.” (2 Peter 2:1-3)

“Evil men and seducers shall wax worse and worse.” 2 Timothy 3:13

Missionaries and others who are truly born again and find Biblical fellowship even daily, instead of weekly, are no less assembling than those who meet in a designated building once weekly.

We still do not see Jesus or the apostles operating rigidly or perhaps much at all with a regimented Sunday morning meeting, nor their insistence that all Christians the world over do such. It was more of a lifestyle, not a Sunday morning visit to a country club as is mostly what we see today. Telling new Christians to go “find a church” in their area is a dangerous proposition especially in this late hour where Jesus promised, foretold that “MANY false prophets shall arise and shall deceive MANY.” (Matthew 24:11) Most “church” organizations are 501(C)(3) which alone means they sold out to the state, rejecting the rulership of the Savior…. and now the state dictates what, when, and where they can preach. The covid scamdemic exposed this – how over 90% of these state owned “churches” are utterly false. Those wolves took orders from the State, not the Savior who commands us to fellowship and if they have true fellowship, why didn’t they continue? They are compromised.

WHAT fruit has the modern church produced? Can we count on more than 1 hand the amount of people we know who are ardent church members (unbiblical) who are also in the Word daily, deny self and taking up the cross daily, and who are evangelizing. There are very few. Jesus says His people are a “little flock.” (Luke 12:32) The modern church wolves who pretend to represent Christ have produced a generation of counterfeits.

WHO did God tell us are His?

“And they that are Christ’s have crucified the flesh with the affections and lusts.” Galatians 5:24

When’s the last time you heard, outside of a “church” building. a faithful church goer laud and celebrate Jesus Christ, testifying of His precious blood and glorious resurrection? Churchianity isn’t Christianity. So many counterfeit modern church goers brag about and are proud of their church and pastor and yet few if any of those same people testify from their own mouths and lives the glories of the bless-ed nail scarred risen Savior. They are not upholding Christ, the Head (Colossians 2:18-19).

Many modern church assemblies do not equal true Bible fellowship, assembling which will always exalt Jesus Christ, not the elders, the organization, or the church.

YOUR PRAYER: Holy Father I come to You now in the name of Jesus, knowing what you said my life should be and yet not knowing how this is to come about. Please increase my faith. I love You LORD. Here and now I turn to You in repentance, asking You to forgive my many sins of not being thankful to You, of selfishness, self-idolatry, rebellion, and unbelief. Please wash me clean, afresh, in the precious blood of my LORD Jesus. Change me dear LORD. Conform me to the image of Christ. Please fill me with Your Holy Ghost and use me to win the lost and help Your people as we eagerly anticipate Your soon return. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

Each of us is blessed with good ministries we are surrounded by. They feed us and they are winning souls (street preachers, God called Bible teachers, etc). Please pray for and support them saints (Galatians 6:6; Philippians 1:19, etc.). This way we are all, each member of Christ’s body, participating in the Great Commission mandate He gave us – and is coming back to take account of the stewardship of our lives – time, talent, treasure, etc. (Ephesians 4:11-16, etc.). Let’s roll saints. Jesus is coming.

NET New English Translation Fake “bible” Exposed

The Net Bible EXPOSED

By David J. Stewart

“Being born again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, by the word of God, which liveth and abideth for ever.” -King James Bible, 1st Peter 1:23

The New English Translation (NET) is straight out of the pits of Hell. It is also referred to as the NEXT Bible. As with its other modern corrupt counterparts, the NET follows the perverted Alexandrian Greek of Westcott and Hort. Contemporary believers are increasingly having difficulty in discerning which Bible is God’s Word (if they are genuine believers at all), because they have been influenced by a corrupt Bible from the start. But to those of us who grew up with the precious King James Bible, it is clearly evident that Satan is using the perverted Greek manuscripts of Westcott and Hort to corrupt all modern bibles.

This matter of which Bible, is critically important because our salvation depends upon it… “Being born again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, by the word of God, which liveth and abideth for ever.” What happens when the Word of God is corrupted, to where it no longer proclaims the truth? Can a person be born of God from a corrupted seed?

A Closer Look at the NET

John 3:16 in the New English translation incorrectly reads…

For this is the way God loved the world: He gave his one and only Son, so that everyone who believes in him will not perish but have eternal life.

As with the Godless new International Version (NIV), the NET completely REMOVES the vital word “begotten” from John 3:16. 1st John 3:1-2 state, “Behold, what manner of love the Father hath bestowed upon us, that we should be called the sons of God: therefore the world knoweth us not, because it knew him not. Beloved, now are we the sons of God…” God has MANY sons. Every believer is an adopted child of God; but Jesus is the ONLY BEGOTTEN Son of God. To say that Jesus is God’s “one and only Son” is a lie.

Furthermore, the word “begotten” clearly identifies Jesus as being deity, i.e., God incarnate. Should it be surprising that the NET also perverts Philippians 2:6 concerning Jesus Christ…

“who though he existed in the form of God did not regard equality with God as something to be grasped.”

This is the exact same garbage that we read in the NIV. In sharp contrast, the King James Bible correctly states concerning the Lord Jesus…

“Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God.” -Philippians 2:6

The King James Bible upholds the deity of Jesus Christ, i.e., the fact that Jesus is Almighty God! The NET diminishes and twists the Word of God, which Deuteronomy 4:2 warns against doing. The NET also corrupts 1st Timothy 3:16 concerning the manifestation of the Godhead in the flesh of Jesus Christ…

“He was revealed in the flesh…”

In sharp contrast, once again, the trustworthy King James Bible states…

“God was manifest in the flesh…” -1st Timothy 3:16

The vital word “Godhead” appears 3 places in the King James Bible, and is completely removed from the NET (compare Romans 1:20; Acts 17:29; Colossians 2:9). All modern corrupt translations maliciously attack the deity of Jesus Christ, subtly diminishing His eternal power and Godhead. For comparison purposes, please read Why Would Anyone Use the NIV?

Not surprisingly, you’ll find all the same problems with the NET Bible as with the NIV. Book publishers have become so greedy and unethical today, that they just keep publishing the same corrupt garbage, but they slap a colorful label on it and call it “new.” You can purchase any so-called “new” Bible you want and you’ll find the exact same corruption in all of them. I triple-dog dare you to prove me wrong.

In Isaiah 7:14, the King James Bible records the Messianic prophecy that “a virgin” would conceive and bring forth a child, i.e., the Son of God. Sacrilegiously, the NET diminishes the phrase “a virgin” to “this young woman.” The reason why men pervert the Bible is found in 1st Timothy 6:10… “For the love of money is the root of all evil: which while some coveted after, they have erred from the faith, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows.” Carefully notice that they have “erred from the faith” because of their love for money.

More people have turned aside from Christianity because of covetousness than any other sin. We often hear the cliché, “Crime doesn’t pay,” but crime does pay, or else criminals wouldn’t be committing the crimes. The companies publishing all these “new” Bible translations are criminals in God’s eyes. They have sold their souls to Satan in exchange for the almighty dollar.

Final Thoughts

The New English Translation (NET) horribly perverts the Words of the Living God. I wouldn’t want to be in their shoes for all the money in the world. There is no greater sin a person can commit than to tamper with the Word of God.

In 2nd Peter 3:16, Peter stated that some of the Apostle Paul’s writings were hard to understand, but Peter was wise enough not to twist the Bible to fit his own finite understanding… “As also in all his epistles, speaking in them of these things; in which are some things hard to be understood, which they that are unlearned and unstable wrest, as they do also the other scriptures, unto their own destruction.”

We are commanded in 2nd Timothy 2:15 to “study” the Bible; not to rewrite it so uneducated people can understand it. Just like every other academic subject, learning the truths of God’s Word requires time spent SEARCHING THE SCRIPTURES as Jesus commanded in John 5:39.

Of course, only a genuine believer on Jesus Christ can understand the truths of God’s Word (1st Corinthians 2:14-16). The King James Bible is God’s preserved, inspired, inerrant, infallible Word in the English language today. Love it, cherish it, defend it, and study it. All modern perversions are based on the work of Westcott and Hort, including the Jehovah’s Witness’, New World Translation. If you have a New English Translation, burn it, because that’s what’s it’s 19th century authors are doing in Hell this moment.

Reading a fake “bible” is like still watching CNN. Let that sink in. Fake news. NOT God’s Word. See if you have a real Bible. I love the King James Bible. See if the BLOOD of Jesus has been removed from Colossians 1:14 in your “bible”. Also, see if Matthew 17:21 and Acts 8:37 are removed and if Romans 8:1 has been chopped in half.

How to Spot a Fake Bible [podcast]

Please don’t balk till you read these 3 verses. This is indefensible to the sane mind! “He that answereth a matter before he heareth it, it is folly and shame unto him.” (Proverbs 18:13) Satan loves to borrow from the authentic. This is so he can attempt to borrow credibility from the real and he pawns off, he promulgates his counterfeits. This is why one of his fake “bibles” is called the “New King James Bible.” The Word “Berean” immediately evokes the truth of the disciples there who stood on God’s written Word and compared everything to it to prove it was […]

Fake Jesus, Fake Pastors, Fake Christians, Fake Bibles, Fake Churches Exposed! [podcast]

TODAY’s apostate preachers created a counterfeit generation of false converts, entitled, self-serving counterfeits. There is no fruit proving they are truly born again. Their “christianity” consists of “church” attendance at a cross-less fake church that uses a fake “bible”, preaches a fake “Jesus”, and has a fake “pastor.” Beware. This was specifically foretold (2 Timothy 3:1-13; 4:1-5). The true disciple of Jesus will listen only to men who fear God and not you/them (2 Samuel 23:3; Matthew 10:28; Galatians 1:10) – and therefore they forcefully declare the whole of His truth straight up into your face! Repent or perish, sinner! “Love […]
