The allegiance and loyalty of the false leaders verses the allegiance of true followers and servants of Jesus.
Self-serving, cross-less, compromised hireling wolves hiding behind the cloth are nothing new saints: “Now therefore send, and gather to me all Israel unto mount Carmel, and the prophets of Baal four hundred and fifty, and the prophets of the groves four hundred, which eat at JEZEBEL’S TABLE“ (1 Kings 18:19).
Eating at “Jezebel’s table” as did the false prophets of Elijah’s day, reveals their refusal to truly repent and serve God at whatever the cost. Those who tucked their feet under “Jezebel’s table” to eat of her dainties, compromised for the provision – the regular paycheck – and refused to go against the grain of rebellion but rather followed along with it for their own self-serving purpose of being taken care of financially. The ministry had been corporatized as we see so today. This always results into making that which God ordained to be “the house of prayer” into “a den of thieves” (Matthew 21:12-17). By taking the salary, the steady paycheck, they then reject the Savior instead of crucifying self, speaking the Word, and walking uprightly. The false prophets who compromised with Jezebel were many and they sacrificed Christ on the altar of self. Instead of truly fearing and trusting God for their provision, they now took the bribe money salary of Jezebel. They wanted that guaranteed provision and the perks associated with being part of the church organization, instead of truly fearing and trusting God, speaking and obeying His Word no matter who objected, no matter what apple cart was flipped. In contrast, Elijah was on the outside of this “church” situation and at war with the rebellion of Israel’s king Ahab and his wicked wife Jezebel.
“And Ahab the son of Omri did evil in the sight of the LORD above all that were before him.” 1 Kings 16:30
“But there was none like unto Ahab, which did sell himself to work wickedness in the sight of the LORD, whom Jezebel his wife stirred up.” 1 Kings 21:25
Like God’s men, Elijah and Jehu, no truly God-fearing man yokes in an unholy alliance with the Jezebel system.
“And it came to pass, when Joram saw Jehu, that he said, Is it peace, Jehu? And he answered, What peace, so long as the whoredoms of thy mother Jezebel and her witchcrafts are so many?” 2 Kings 9:22
Saints, let us begin to discern those are not corrupted by the church system, you know, those who operate autonomously – separate from the system – like John the Baptist, Jesus, and His holy apostles. Any man who is given over to the LORD and genuinely called out by Jesus to serve, to feed His sheep, will come out of the system – they will cease eating at “Jezebel’s table”! (See 1 Kings 18:19.) Jezebel has a table, she has spread her sumptuous, tempestuous wares, and invites those called to ministry to come and to compromise for the temporary riches of this world – a momentary prosperity that ends in damnation (2 Peter 2:1-3). Those who’ve compromised with the system are bought and paid for and therefore will never preach the original Gospel, the essential doctrines of the cross of Christ, the crucified life (cross), sin, hell, repentance, holiness, judgment to come, the essential of enduring to the end, and being ready for the return of Jesus, etc.
Salaries for Ministers Examined
Corporate employee, or servant of Christ? Satan has secured the allegiance of those in ministry who are on salary. This is the significance of the words “Jezebel’s table” when God’s Word records how hundreds of salaried false prophets tucked their feet under the witch’s table (1 Kings 18:19). Though it is established that men whom God calls out to do His work are to be supplied, living by faith seems to be what we see of Christ, His apostles, and the prophets. Their allegiance is to the LORD and not man (1 Corinthians 9:1-14).
In his book Let My People Go, David W. Dyer writes:
The idea of salaries moves beyond what is healthy and scriptural. If and when someone receives a “salary” – that is a fixed, regular, dependable sum of money – then they no longer need to depend upon God. Little by little, they begin to trust in man. Their vision inevitably turns from the Lord to those who are paying their salary.
It is virtually impossible for this not to occur. The person or persons who are supplying us with our daily necessities are the ones who control us. When God is in this position, all is well and good. But when men are the ones who hold the purse strings, then they are the ones in a position of power over us.
In such situations, the motives of the person ministering become compromised. They become a “hireling” (Jn 10:13) who must keep in the good graces of those upon whose money they depend. Instead of the necessity to maintain a good, intimate, obedient relationship with Jesus, they merely need to keep on the good side of those from whom they receive a salary.
They therefore are no longer free to say only what Jesus gives them to say. They become reticent to speak anything which might offend someone who might then stop supporting them. They are gradually transformed into “menpleasers” (Eph 6:6). If and when someone is genuinely “living by faith,” it must be faith in God and not faith in the ability and good will of others to continue to support them.
Helping the Ungodly, Christ’s Enemies, will Procure Judgment to Ourselves
Let us cease approving of and condoning the very enemies of Christ as described in Philippians 3:18-19 and Jude 3-4. Let us cease bidding Godspeed to them – that is, endorsing and helping them (2 John 10-11). All who do such make themselves the very enemies of Christ and will be eternally judged with the wolves they “help” (2 Chronicles 19:2).
“Shouldest thou help the ungodly, and love them that hate the LORD? therefore is wrath upon thee from before the LORD.” 2 Chronicles 19:2
Many in leadership today have traded Christ for cash, are misleading others, and will suffer irrevocable eternal “damnation” (2 Peter 2:1-3; Matthew 6:24; Philippians 3:18-19).

Mission Mexico Part 26

Our LORD is Changing Lives here in Mexico
Last week our brother in Christ Vicente had a financial need and you met that need for Vicente and his family.
I brought him the money and he was… absolutely elated. He had been telling me about this pretty serious need for a few weeks. Finally I brought him the money he needed. God is able amen saints.
Update: Vicente update: I ran into our brother Vicente this morning and he was ministering to some men who were a work crew right outside of his restaurant on the street. I quickly handed him about 40 JESUS tracts and he began passing them to the men. Going to be supplying Vicente with more of the JESUS tract in Spanish soon.
Our brother is super overjoyed for the help he received to get his family vehicle repaired.
Jesus is God.
He’s coming.
More on the ministry to the Spanish speaking peoples of our LORD’s world! In the fellowship with the Florida group, a dear lady named Hilda repented and received Christ. Thank you for thanking our LORD for saving her and for His perfect will to be done in Hilda’s life. Phil 1:6
Excellent fruitful ministry time with Alex today. He’s also been sent the Born Again book in Spanish (PDF). Would you like to pause and ask God to bless, to save this man? (Ps 2:8; Acts 3:26)
Your prayers and support make this mission work to these beautiful, ultra-receptive people possible.
No religious organization or rich people support this Gospel mission. God is the Author of it!
Thousands have received the Gospel by the spoken ministry of the Word in Spanish and the JESUS tract.
“WE are labourers TOGETHER with God.” 1 Cor 3:9
“Matthew 5:3! No one wants to be in a humble state of submission in America. Even the so-called Christians! And be needy and weak. Like a little child. They pride themselves on all they can do. And why do I need God I can do it myself! This is why I love hearing testimonies of the people of Mexico who are poor in spirit, meek and humble! Without this you will not enter the kingdom of heaven.” Karen Cochran
Thank you for lifting in prayer the Mexican people – that many more will be saved and established in Christ (1 Timothy 2:4).

WHY IS THE KING JAMES VERSION CALLED THE “AUTHORIZED VERSION”?

Excerpt from “Answers To Your Bible Version Questions”
© 2001 by David W. Daniels
Question: Why is the King James Bible called the “Authorized Version”? How did King James Authorize it?
Answer: Despite stories to the contrary, King James, in no uncertain terms, clearly authorized the translation of the Bible that now bears his name.
[Note: This is a drastically shortened account of the birth of God’s preserved words in English. Longer accounts are available, as in Final Authority: A Christian’s Guide to the King James Bible, by William P. Grady.]
Sanctioning the Authorized Version
When Elizabeth died on April 1, 1603, she had seen 130 editions of the New Testament and the Bible published during her 45 years as Queen of England. James VI of Scotland, son of Mary, “Queen of Scots,” became James I of England.
Four days later, on his way to London, a delegation of Puritan ministers met James, asking him to hear their grievances against the Church of England. James consented, and on January of 1604, four Puritans came to express their troubles at Hampton Court, in front of King James and over 50 Anglican (Church of England) officials. One by one each request was rejected, until the Puritan group’s leader, John Rainolds said these famous words:
“May your Majesty be pleased to direct that the Bible be now translated, [since] such versions as are extant [are] not answering to the original.”
At first, Bishop Bancroft of London was dead-set against it, saying, “If every man’s humor might be followed, there would be no end to translating.” But the King made it clear he liked the idea. Not too long later Bancroft wrote this to a friend:
I move you in his majesty’s name that, … no time may be overstepped by you for the better furtherance of this holy work…. You will scarcely conceive how earnest his majesty is to have this work begun!
When this Bible was translated, the title page was printed basically as you find it today in Cambridge Bibles:
HOLY BIBLE
CONTAINING THE
OLD AND NEW TESTAMENTS
TRANSLATED OUT OF THE ORIGINAL TONGUES:
AND WITH THE FORMER TRANSLATIONS
DILIGENTLY COMPARED AND REVISED
BY HIS MAJESTY’S SPECIAL COMMAND
APPOINTED TO BE READ IN CHURCHES
The King James Bible was “Authorized” to be translated as God’s Word for the English-speaking people of the world. God bless you as you study His authorized and preserved words in English, the King James Bible.
