Word-Less Wolves and their Gullible Prey

“For THE LEADERS of this people cause them to err; and they that are led of them are destroyed.”  Isaiah 9:16

Who did the LORD just tell us “cause” the people who claim to be the LORD’s people “to err” and to be “destroyed”? Read the above verse again and note the answer in all caps.

The enemy of souls must belly laugh at just how biblically-illiterate and gullible so many are who claim to be serving Christ, the all-wise God.

The Bible tells us that Satan himself has his “ministers” who pose as the LORD’s ministers (2 Corinthians 11:12-15). Just what are these imposters up to?

When the self-serving, cross-less hireling is planning and/or building an entertainment center he calls “church,” self-serving counterfeits will flock to empty their pockets to help him. As can be seen by the many seeker-friendly, emergent church churches that litter the highways and byways here in Laodicean America, the church business industry is lucrative and booming. That is, even in a down economy. In contrast, when a divinely called-out servant leader chooses to obey God and simply stick with preaching His pure Word and the full-counsel of it, he may starve here in this life (Acts 20:20, 27; 2 Timothy 4:2-4; 1 Peter 4:11, etc.).  Regrettably, few, even among those who claim to want the truth and profess to have been brought out of the apostate modern church world, will lift a finger to help.

The LORD be praised for those faithful few who serve the LORD “in deed and in truth” (1 John 3:18).

Most people, even those claiming to be born again, live by their senses and not “by faith” as the Bible tells us we must live in order to be justified (Romans 1:17; 2 Corinthians 5:7; Galatians 3:11; Hebrews 10:38). So, because of this disobedience, all the self-kingdom-building hireling has to do is get some architectural plans drawn up and a color sketch done of the prospective building plans (finished product) to show the people, and wham the money begins to pour in to erect that new physical building or add on to the existing one. But will that money be spent to truly advance God’s kingdom in the hearts of men, women, and children? Or, will that building project simply multiply the ability to entertain and merely perpetuate the existence of that particular local church business? – as is the case in the majority of that which calls itself the church in America.

Most never stop to discern amidst all the fanfare, giving pleas, and entertainment, that there is no fulfilling of the Great Commission Jesus mandated (Matthew 28:18-20; Mark 16:15-20). In fact, most who claim to be saved have no idea that a Great Commission exists which testifies to the good job the epidemic conspiracy of wolves have done for their father Satan (John 8:44; Ezekiel 22:25-27; Amos 8:11, etc.).

An identifying sign of a wolf is that they could care less about winning lost souls. All the time, money, energy, and everything – is spent consumed on the already fat, self-loving so-called “pastor” and his self-centered congregation of pleasure lovers (2 Timothy 3:1-7; 4:2-4).

Most people never stop to question or discern if the physical building project is something Jesus or His apostles would build – or did build. It’s highly doubtful that they would and if they did, it would not be lavish or set up to entertain.  God is unchanging and we can clearly observe that Christ and His apostles never once collected a penny to build a physical building. The true church cannot be contained in any physical building (2 Timothy 1:8). The true remnant body of Christ sees the whole globe as their building, where souls abound who need the Savior (Matthew 28:18-20; Mark 16:15-20). When the earliest believers collected money – when disciples of Jesus gave – it was for the poor believers and for the work of the ministry (Acts 2:44-45; 4:32-35; 6:1-7; 1 Corinthians 9:1-14; 16:1-3; Philippians 4, etc.). It was not for inflated CEO salaries or overdone physical buildings.

First off, most leaders who occupy physical church buildings could care less if those they mis-lead learn the Word of God for themselves. In fact, it actually benefits the hireling wolf more to keep the people dumb – biblically illiterate. Why? – because dumb people are easy to control and to manipulate.

Are you Dumbed Down?

How many Bible verses have you memorized?

How many NFL quarterbacks do you know? Running backs? College football teams, players, stats? Baseball players and their stats? Basketball?

Ladies, how much glamor or romance material have you read lately and how many gossip “facts” have you learned and remembered about so-called celebrities?

What does this reveal?

WHAT three things choke the Word of God out of our lives and cause us to be unfruitful which means we are detached from Him? Read John 15:1-6. If the Word of God were not important in our daily lives, WHY then would Jesus speak of it this way?

 “And these are they likewise which are sown on stony ground; who, when they have heard the word, immediately receive it with gladness; 17 And have no root in themselves, and so endure but for a time: afterward, when affliction or persecution ariseth for the word’s sake, immediately they are offended. 18 And these are they which are sown among thorns; such as hear the word, 19 And the cares of this world, and the deceitfulness of riches, and the lusts of other things entering in, choke the word, and it becometh unfruitful.” Mark 4:16-19

“The cares of this world” – that is, frivolous entertainment and wasteful trinkets, things, and endeavors get more attention than does the LORD, His Word, daily prayer communion, and communicating His Word to others.

Christ reveals that “The lust of other things” has been allowed due to the refusal to truly seek – diligently go after – the LORD.

“Seek the LORD and his strength, seek his face continually.” 1 Chronicles 16:11

Mad at me? You won’t be the first.

My point is that all men have the ability to remember things and without fail, we retain what is most important to us which reveals who our first, our most important love really is (Revelation 2:4-5).

The LORD says “Let thine heart RETAIN my words” (Proverbs 4:4).

Ministry that glorifies the LORD gets people into His Word of God for themselves – To “study to shew” their own selves “approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.”

Those who do not know God’s Word personally are not becoming “approved unto God” and will ultimately be “ashamed” and “destroyed.”

“My people (not the heathen) are destroyed for lack of knowledge.” Hosea 4:6

Divine Instruction to You

“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

The fact is, that if you vainly believe you have a good home church and yet are not being stirred, rebuked, exhorted, encouraged, and admonished to learn God’s written Word for yourself, you are being led by a hireling wolf. Oh, and I would be honored if you told him I said so.

You see, the hireling only wants his customers to patronize his local church business which means they attend, give their money and time, and make him feel good about himself by their presence and participation. So, he brings in the entertainment gurus and circus leaders. He has been trained, not in biblical truth but rather in the business of church and how to market to the consumer dupes who attend. He incorporates good music and drama people and good entertainment leaders for the children. Regrettably, most parents who claim to be saved are gullible dupes who don’t look for whether or not their children are literally learning HOLY SCRIPTURES in children’s church. No, they are satisfied if their children are simply entertained, bring back coloring pages, name tags, or other trinkets and paraphernalia. In fact, those same parents do zilch to teach their very own children God’s Word as God commands in Deuteronomy repeatedly. How tragic! What betrayal to the LORD they claim to serve! What betrayal to their own heritage – their own children!

“And thou shalt teach them diligently unto thy children (that’s YOU – the parent!), and shalt talk of them when thou sittest in thine house, and when thou walkest by the way, and when thou liest down, and when thou risest up.” Deuteronomy 6:7

There are people reading this who are proud of their local church and pastor and yet, those same people don’t know God’s Word for themselves, aren’t learning it, aren’t motivated in God’s holy fear to know it, and are simply dangerously comfortable – “at ease in Zion.” Amos 6:1 says “Woe unto those who are at ease in Zion.” These biblically illiterate lukewarm Laodiceans are in big trouble and don’t realize it because they have been lulled to sleep spiritually at the wicked hands of soft, smiling, soothing wolves who are ushering the souls of their prey into everlasting damnation, never to have a second chance to repent.

Make no mistake: ANY and all called-out servants of Christ are teaching God’s Word to the people in the holy fear of the LORD and are getting people into God’s Word for themselves, so they can trust HIM and not them! Wolves want the people to depend on THEM so they can have people continue to patronize and pay THEM!

“Bind up the testimony, seal the law among my disciples.” Isaiah 8:16

WHAT did Jesus send us to do?

“And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth. 19 Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: 20 Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world. Amen.”  Matthew 28:18-20

Jesus is only with those who abide in Him, which means they are also obeying Him – by teaching His Word to others. Are you? If not, you are clearly out of God’s will. Even though, you have probably been taught that “God’s will” is for you to patronize a pastor by attending a local church.

Is your local church or the man you listen to getting YOU into God’s written Word for yourself? If not, he is deliberately not fulfilling the New Testament purpose and leading you down the wide road that leads to eternal destruction.

Are You Apostate and Don’t Even Realize it?

Look around you and consider what Paul foretold in 2 Timothy 4:2-4:

“Preach the word; be instant in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all long suffering and doctrine. 3 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 4:2-4

You see, most people simply want to be entertained. They do not want to repent which would bring the fruit of desire and grace to change (Matthew 3:7-10). They love darkness rather than light and pleasure more than God, as Christ and His apostles forewarned us (John 3:19-21; 2 Timothy 3:1-7). They want to patronize, attend, and fund ministries that simply never call them to repent, fast, seek God in holy prayer communion, break up their fallow ground, walk in the holy fear of God, deny self, take up the daily cross, follow Jesus, and live for His soon return. They want to be told that all is well when it’s not and gladly fund the wolves that tell them these lies. This is prophetic, historic and last days covetous reciprocation.

FEEDBACK: 

I concur but should we stop praying for them? Idk bro. Tony

REPLY:

Hi Tony. Well, praying for the wolves is not a sin and yet, there’s no prayer for wolves in Scripture, only rebukes and exposure …. because perhaps God cares more for the souls those deceivers are leading to hell than He does for that deliberate wolf.

As the Lord leads you. Sometimes prayers can be wasted for people like the Apostle Paul said: To deliver such an one unto Satan for the destruction of the flesh, that the spirit may be saved in the day of the Lord Jesus. 1 Corinthians 5:5″ Daniel H.

Mary hath Chosen that Good Part [podcast]


Luke 10:38-42

Mary = loving relationship with Jesus, not just being busy with doing, with labor, with performing works such as what Martha was doing. First and foremost, Jesus saved us for relationship with Him and the Father (John 17:3). And here our Savior expresses that knowing, loving, adoring, and listening to Him are at a divine premium, they are most important to God. That’s what God desires – for us to delight ourselves in Him (Psalms 37:4).

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

David’s brothers looked the part but they couldn’t and wouldn’t even face Goliath, much less slay him. David though, was spending time alone with the LORD, listening to His voice and tending to the sheep. He who is the only man God ever said was “a man after mine own heart,” was used mightily of God to slay the giant (Acts 13:22; 1 Samuel 17).

Isn’t this how we are with our children? Wouldn’t every parent rather their precious children sit in their mom or dad’s lap telling their parent how much they (the child) loves them (the parent)? That’s the biggest heart melt we know, right?

Like David, the most powerfully used warriors are first worshippers.

Our real, our genuine relationship with the LORD is that place out of which His power and grace (divine enablement) will flow. Like David, we must be primarily, and first and foremost worshippers. Out of that rich communion with the Savior will flow the warrior anointing of the LORD who is “a man of war” (Exodus 15:3).

Many who sense the call of God on their lives to minister go to seminary. Sad. We must go to God ourselves – in prayer, a life of prayer, relentlessly seeking His holy face in His Word for ourselves.

“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 

Mary hath

Private prayer with the LORD precedes God using us. Those who seek God in “secret” will be “openly” rewarded by Him.

“The little estimate we put on prayer is evidence from the little time we give to it.” EM Bounds

“A sinning man stops praying. A praying man stops sinning.” – Leonard Ravenhill

Luke 10

38  Now it came to pass, as they went, that he entered into a certain village: and a certain woman named Martha received him into her house
39  And she had a sister called Mary, which also sat at Jesus’ feet, and heard his word
40  But Martha was cumbered about much serving, and came to him, and said, Lord, dost thou not care that my sister hath left me to serve alone? bid her therefore that she help me. 
41  And Jesus answered and said unto her, Martha, Martha, thou art careful and troubled about many things: 
42  But one thing is needful: and Mary hath chosen that good part, which shall not be taken away from her. 

“Mary hath Chosen that Good Part” 

The “good part” Mary chose consists of…

  • Mary made the only wise choice “Mary hath chosen.”
  • Mary put Jesus first. She put the Savior first, not herself or her idea of what it meant to serve Him.
  • Jesus says here that choosing to put and keep Him first is the “one thing [that] is needful” or most necessary (v39, 42).
  • Sitting before Jesus Himself and not searching for God outside of God Himself, primarily that is. All other learning is supplemental and subservient to that which the LORD tells us specifically, in His Word.

Worshippers become the most powerful workers God uses!

Like many today who are shallow rooted, Martha was a worker but not first and foremost a worshipper. Mary was a worshipper who loved to spend time with Jesus. Therefore she was empowered by God Himself via that fellowship with Him to walk in His holy compassion and to do His works with His power and for His glory (1 Corinthians 15:10).

When our works are not fruitful as they should be, perhaps it can be traced back to our lack of fellowship with our LORD. As we fellowship with Him, putting Him first and not ourselves, our vessel, our cup will run over with His goodness…. it will spill over onto others! (See Psalms 23:5.) That’s when our labor will carry His eternal weight of glory (2 Corinthians 4:17).

“Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over.” Psalms 23:5

When Jesus came, it was God bringing Heaven to the people – to forgive their sins and make them whole (Matthew 9:6). This was the foretold fulfillment of His kingdom coming on earth as it is in heaven (Matthew 6:10).

When Jesus came, He went to the people, to heal, to save, to make whole (Matthew 9:35-38; Acts 10:38, etc.).

As we go, Jesus is with us, “even unto the end of the world. Amen” (Matthew 28:20).

Daily, our LORD is using His people to bring Heaven to the people. As the Holy Spirit fills our lives, His blessed presence and fruit in our lives is going to over overflow onto others.

A sister in Christ once told me that “The best Marthas are first Marys.” Think about that one in light of what we read in this passage when Jesus visited the home of Mary and Martha (Luke 10:38-42). Those who sit at Jesus’ feet to hear His holy counsel, are changed into His image and become reservoirs for His blessed glory. Their cups run over onto others!

“Prayer is of transcendent importance. Prayer is the mightiest agent to advance God’s work. Praying hearts and hands only can do God’s work. Prayer succeeds when all else fails.” E.M. Bounds

When worshiping Jesus is our first priority, the work He uses us to do WILL carry His unction and bring fruit to bear for His eternal glory.

Rote obedience to minister to others, while not anchored in intimacy with our LORD, will not yield an abundant harvest, fruit. In contrast, we can be blessed to have God’s power and grace to do His work and that happens as we are truly communing, fellowshipping in the construct of that oneness relationship He made us for (John 15; 17).

Knowing God’s Word and obeying Him is not an automatic progression (John 8:31-36). One can know the Bible and not its Author. Or, one can know the Bible well and not know the Author well (Job 22:21-28). Obeying God’s Word requires knowing Him, abiding in an intimate fellowship with Him, thereby enabling that saint the grace (divine enablement) to obey Him (John 5:39-40; 7:17; 14:21-23; 15:1-16, etc.).

Martha “received him.” Many of us have “received” Jesus, have been saved by Him (John 1:12), yet like Martha we aren’t sitting at His holy feet, listening to Him speak through His Word. Like Martha, we also are “cumbered about much serving.”

It should be understood that our work can exceed our worship, our hospitality can exceed our holiness, our serving can exceed our sanctification, etc.  That would be defined as imbalance (Proverbs 11:1).

In Luke 10:38-42, notice that Mary sat directly at Jesus’ feet and no other. When we arise in the morning to commune with the LORD, such is to be direct communication between you and Him, alone (Matthew 6:6). That would mean perhaps that when you arise in the morning you aren’t reading some other book about God or turning on a podcast or TV program to find and commune with the LORD. No, those things involve others. We must directly commune with the LORD in prayer and in HIS Word. How else shall we be able to discern the “MANY false prophets” Jesus warned us “shall deceive many”? (Read Matthew 24:11; 1 John 4:1.) How can we know the counterfeit if we don’t know the real? We can’t.

In principle, Martha is a person like Cain, a person who chose to do things their own way, not God’s – because they are not truly submitted to God. Does that describe your life friend? Jesus calls us home to Himself (Matthew 11:28-30).

Are we attempting to serve the LORD on our own terms or are we sitting before Him, hearing His voice as we are worshipfully, joyfully submitted to Him on His stated terms?

“The men who have done mighty things for God have always been mighty in prayer, have well understood the possibilities of prayer, and made the most of these possibilities. The Son of God, the first of all and the mightiest of all, has shown us the all-potent and far reaching possibilities of prayer. Paul was mighty for because he knew, how to use, and how to get others to use, the mighty spiritual forces of prayer.” EM Bounds, The Complete Works of E.M. Bounds on Prayer, P. 341

When we are brought to the point of true repentance it will be obvious in that we will do things God’s way and no longer our own. Like Mary, we will be settled at His feet, hearing His Word, His voice. The Mary person is in love with and submitted to the LORD and Savior she so joyfully worships.

“Jesus never taught His disciples how to preach, only how to pray. To know how to speak to God is more than knowing how to speak to people. Power with God is the first thing, not power with people. Christ loves to teach us how to pray.”  –Andrew Murray, With Christ in the School of Prayer, pp.  xxiii-xxiv

Putting God First [podcast]


If God’s Word isn’t important to you, it’s because He isn’t important to you.

If anything comes before the LORD in your day, you are an idolater.

“Thou shalt have no other gods before me.” Exodus 20:3

GOD’s WORD cannot get into you if you aren’t into it.

“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

Jesus commanded:

“But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.”  Matthew 6:33

As you seek God, putting Him first, you are not going to be able to prevent, to stop His blessings coming upon your life. 100%

Memorize this promise from your Savior, today.

“But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.” Matthew 6:33

What putting Christ first looks like:

Prayer.

“Early will I seek thee.” Psalms 63:1

Read. Study.

Neither have I gone back from the commandment of his lips; I have esteemed the words of his mouth more than my necessary food.  Job 23:12

The Bible is far from just amazing information (Psalms 119:98-100; 2 Peter 1:3-4, etc.). More important than vital information coming from our Maker, God’s Word is your spiritual food and without it, without daily ingesting it, you will famish, fall, and ultimately perish.

“As newborn babes, desire the sincere milk of the word, that ye may grow thereby:” 1 Peter 2:2

Read that again: The only way to “grow” is to “desire” and to devour the Word of your great God and King Jesus. He made you to know Him (John 17:3).

The only way to keep, to guard your heart before the LORD, is to keep it full of God’s Word.

“Keep (guard, till the soil of) thy heart with all diligence; for out of it are the issues of life.” Proverbs 4:23

In fact, like Job, we must make the spiritual food of God’s Word more important than the food that fuels and keeps healthy our physical body.

“Neither have I gone back from the commandment of his lips; I have esteemed the words of his mouth more than my necessary food.” Job 23:12

“He taught me also, and said unto me, Let thine heart RETAIN my words: keep my commandments, and live.” Proverbs 4:4

“Blessed is the man that walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor standeth in the way of sinners, nor sitteth in the seat of the scornful.
2 But his delight is in the law of the LORD; and in his law doth he meditate day and night.
3 And he shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water, that bringeth forth his fruit in his season; his leaf also shall not wither; and whatsoever he doeth shall prosper.” Psalms 1

Find. Eat. Rejoice.

Thy words were found, and I did eat them; and thy word was unto me the joy and rejoicing of mine heart: for I am called by thy name, O Lord God of hosts.” Jeremiah 15:16

YOUR PRAYER: Father please unite my heart to fear Thy name. Forgive my sins of spiritual adultery, of self-idolatry. Here and now I renounce my own ownership on my life. It’s Your life LORD. Reign on the throne of this heart and cut away, circumcise any and everything of iniquity in my heart and life. You must increase but I must decrease, in Jesus’ name. Amen.
