—- SEE IF YOU CAN CATCH THIS:

Here it is …. Can you find the 2 clues?

So many today believe that because a mere man is set up as a leader, a local pastor, author, radio show host, or evangelism, that he is a true representative of Christ.

Utter nonsense.

Such is the definition of an utterly gullible, willingly ignorant dupe. God gave us His Word in written form so that we don’t need to remain ignorant of His truth.

“My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge.” Hosea 4:6

We have a Bible to assure we are not ignorant and to protect us from the end time wolves (Psalms 119:105).

TESTING A PASTOR

“Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try (test) the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world.” 1 John 4:1

The First of Two Simple Tests

CAN anyone find the divinely embedded qualification identifying true and false elders/servant leaders in these 2 Bible instruction found in the same chapter? …. which tells us who to properly and organically submit to as an elder in the LORD’s body?…. see if you can find it … Here’s the first of the two…

“Remember them which have the rule over you, who have spoken unto you the word of God: whose faith follow, considering the end of their conversation.” Hebrews 13:7

Did you catch it? Let’s look closer at God’s Word together …

Catch: “who have spoken unto you the word of God” – In 2 Timothy 4:2 we read where Paul says: “Preach the word” – not tradition or ANYthing else but God’s pure Word. ANYthing else is “another gospel” depicting the image of “another Jesus” and is fully influenced by “another (a demon) spirit.” (2 Corinthians 11:2-4; Galatians 1:6-9) Such hirelings are not only just deceived, they are the most powerful of Satan’s agents who are what Jesus describes are wolves in sheep’s clothing and therefore domestic beguilers who work from within as Paul also warned of (Matthew 7:15; Acts 20:27-31).

“To the law and to the testimony: if they speak not according to this word, it is because there is no light in them.” Isaiah 8:20

Most pastors and authors do no such thing – that is they do not preach the pure, raw Word of God. This alone finds them to be false. They have mixed God’s Word with the lie of OSAS/eternal security, the cancer of calvinism, false philosophies, paganism, and psycho-babble, etc. The LORD’s apostle warns:

“BEWARE (warning) lest ANY man spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition of men, after the rudiments of the world, and not after Christ.” Colossians 2:8

Second TEST Question

Okay, here’s the second of these two verses we are peering into. See if you can catch the divinely embedded clue here as to who God wants you fellowshipping with and who is to be excluded from your company (especially in respect to leaders):

“Obey them that have the rule over you, and submit yourselves: for they watch for your souls, as they that must give account, that they may do it with joy, and not with grief: for that is unprofitable for you.” Hebrews 13:17

A clue to who to be submitted to Christ with: “they watch for your souls.” Hint: A man who doesn’t OFTEN warn you of false prophets means he is one! Selah! Jesus and His holy apostle constantly warned us to “beware of false prophets.” (Matthew 7:15; 24:3-4, 11, 24; Philippians 3:18-19; Colossians 1:28; 2:4, 8; 1 John 4:1, etc.) Any questions?

Many pastors use these 2 verses in Hebrews 13 to get people to submit to them, support their church business (country club), and yet those same hirelings do not truly – biblically – 1) watch for the souls of the flock (Hebrews 13:7), nor do they 2) “preach the word” and only the Word but a mixture that is laced with omissions and deadly lies (Hebrews 13:17). And, most of those in their audiences do not truly and personally search and daily diligently study God’s Word and are therefore clueless to the fraud being perpetrated upon them (Hosea 4:6; John 5:39; Acts 17:11; Colossians 3:16; 2 Timothy 2:15, etc.). Hell awaits: Isaiah 9:16; 2 Peter 2:1-3.

These smiling CEO type beguilers are well funded due to the fulfillment of the following prophecy (among others found in the New Testament):

“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

It is regrettably observable that the majority of men in leadership who operate in the modern church world are building their own church business using lies and half truths. We were repeatedly warned of these very things and so there is absolutely no excuse to be deceived. You have access to a Bible (King James).

If you have erroneously submitted yourself to any ministry or pastor or any kind of supposed representative of Christ, who is not constantly (another other things – teaching and preaching the Word) warning you, you are under a false ministry and the spirits that are behind it now have control over your life.

With no exception, Christ’s servants will always get YOU into HIS Word for yourself. They desire you to be faithful, loyal to GOD, not themselves!

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

Summation

We learn to better discern by what we are taught in Hebrews 13:7,17. The true servant of the LORD humble serves among God’s people and is not lifted up over them (Matthew 20:24-28; 23:11-12; 1 Peter 5:1-6, etc.).

Hebrews 13

v7 – “who have spoken unto you the word of God“
v17 – “they watch for your souls“

The LORD’s called-out and obedient servant preach God’s Word alone to you and that includes getting YOU into God’s Word daily for yourself (2 Timothy 2:15). Also, they watch for your souls. There is a sense of holiness about their lives as they pray for and labor to equip and feed Christ’s sheep.

There is little resemblance in modern “pastors” and the ministry of Christ and His holy apostles …. who laboured daily to feed and equip the body of Christ ….. they didn’t wait till Sunday morning. The earliest believers sought God, ministered and fellowship “daily” as they met “house to house.” (Acts 2:42-47)

Regrettably, many pastors today spend more time, money, and energy playing golf and involving themselves in other frivolous temporal activities. I’ve known many pastors who have kit cars or cars they waste time and money on and yet have no time for the sheep. Read Jeremiah 23 and there you will see them.

Giving out a little sermonette one day per week and managing a piece of real estate is not biblical pastoring and should never be supported!

This is one of the reasons for the books “Deceivers and False Prophets Among Us” and “Predators in Our Pulpits.”

The Purpose of Elders in Christ's Body [podcast]

There is no more important work transpiring in the earth today than the work of the Gospel of Jesus Christ (Matthew 9:35-38; 28:18-20; Ephesians 4:11-15; 1 Peter 5:1-6, etc.). “Now the God of peace, that brought again from the dead our Lord Jesus, that great shepherd of the sheep, through the blood of the everlasting covenant, 21 Make you perfect in every good work to do his will, working in you that which is wellpleasing in his sight, through Jesus Christ; to whom be glory for ever and ever. Amen.” Hebrews 13:20-21 In short, the authentic under-shepherd ordained of Jesus […]

Pastors According to Mine Heart

“And I will give you pastors according to mine heart, which shall feed you with knowledge and understanding.” Jeremiah 3:15 PASTORING is not occupying a physical building as a real estate manager! By biblical definition and under the anointing of “the Great Shepherd of the sheep”, PASTORING involves feeding, tending to, exhorting, correcting, encouraging, teaching, equipping, warning, comforting, and nourishing the sheep of Christ for whom He died and rose again from the dead (John 21:15-17; Hebrews 13:7, 17, 20). Pastoring involves instruction and perpetual preparation in light of the soon return of the Savior (Ephesians 5:25-27; Colossians 1:28; 1 […]

Bible Literacy Series

BIBLE LITERACY SERIES “But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves.” James 1:22 Overall Bible knowledge is extremely important and yet obedience to the simple truths of our LORD is even more important (Matthew 7:21; John 14:15, 21; 15:14; 17:3; James 1:22; 1 John 2:4-6; 3:18, etc.). Most of us have seen many people who were very knowledgeable in the Word who later fall away because they left their “first love”, (Revelation 2:4-5) They ceased from doing the basic things consistent with staying in close fellowship with Jesus that are required of us […]

Abiding

“And this Gospel of the Kingdom shall be Preached in all the World” [podcast]

“All these are the beginning of sorrows.

9 Then shall they deliver you up to be afflicted, and shall kill you: and ye shall be hated of all nations for my name’s sake.

10 And then shall many be offended, and shall betray one another, and shall hate one another.

11 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.

14 And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come.” Matthew 24:8-14

The true remnant of Christ are known in that they are enduring to the end in the midst of iniquity, abounding and preaching the Gospel of Jesus the King to the world.

“And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature.” Mark 16:15

PRAYER: Father in Heaven, I come to You in the name of Jesus Christ, admitting I have been living for my own evil glory. I am a sinner. I’ve committed the sin of idolatry, having myself first instead of You. I admit here and now before You that I have been committing the damning sin of spiritual adultery. I have claimed to know You and yet refused to uncompromisingly adhere to Your Word. Here and now, right now if never before, I repent and ask You to forgive my sins and to wash me afresh from my sins in the precious blood of Jesus Christ my LORD. Into Your hands I commend, I submit my spirit, my life, right this moment and ask You dear LORD to fill me with Your Holy Ghost and use me to preach Your glorious message of repentance to those around me so that they can receive the forgiveness of all their sins and walk in the times of refreshing from Your holy presence dear LORD. I love You Jesus. I am all Yours and I know You are all mine. In Jesus’ Name amen.

Beware of the "I Love My Church" Deception [podcast]

DID YOUR “CHURCH” DIE FOR YOU…. OR DID JESUS DIE FOR YOU? “I see many exalting their church but nothing about Jesus Christ.” Tina A LOT OF PEOPLE ARE CAUGHT UP WITH THEIR “CHURCH” BUT NOT WITH CHRIST! (REVELATION 2:4-5) You only love your fake “church” because the fake “pastor” is a gutless self-serving coward who refuses to preach the whole counsel of God’s Word, including – sin, repentance, the crucified life, and the holiness of God and how He commands you to be holy as He is holy (Acts 20:20, 27; 2 Timothy 3:15-17). Oh and he uses a fake […]

Following Christ's Great Commission Command [podcast]

The future belongs exclusively to Jesus Christ and His followers. Read the book of Revelation! “And Jesus said unto him, No man, having put his hand to the plough, and looking back, is fit for the kingdom of God.” Luke 9:62 Is your hand on “the plough” – that which God has called you to do in His kingdom work? Have you looked back? “Take heed to the ministry which thou hast received in the Lord, that thou fulfil it.” Colossians 4:17 Have you grown weary in well doing? “And let us not be weary in well doing: for in due […]

The Result of Real Repentance [podcast]

“They profess that they know God; but in works they deny him, being abominable, and disobedient, and unto every good work reprobate.” Titus 1:16 WE DON’T NEED JUST ANOTHER “CHURCH SERVICE” OR “SERMON,” WE NEED TO REPENT AND WHEN WE REALLY DO, WE WILL OBEY GOD—OTHERWISE WE DIDN’T TRULY REPENT. “In those days came John the Baptist, preaching in the wilderness of Judaea, 2 And saying, Repent ye: for the kingdom of heaven is at hand. 3 For this is he that was spoken of by the prophet Esaias, saying, The voice of one crying in the wilderness, Prepare ye the way […]

Jesus Promised Judas an Eternal Throne in Heaven but He Chose to go to Hell #shorts [video]

Judas died and went to eternal hell, irrevocably as every lost soul shall experience (Acts 1:25). Judas is the “son of perdition” and “perdition” means damnation (John 17:12).

Here’s all the ministry’s shorts (60 secs) videos. Feel free to share:

See all shorts videos here on ministry youtube channel.

Judas was even sent out with the other apostles to heal the sick, raise the dead, and preach Christ’s Gospel (Matthew 10:1-8). He was real, then backslid and is in hell (Acts 1:16-25).
The Truth about Judas

“And Jesus said unto them, Verily I say unto you, That ye which have followed me, in the regeneration when the Son of man shall sit in the throne of his glory, ye also shall sit upon twelve thrones (not 11), judging the twelve tribes of Israel.” (Matthew 19:28)

Judas wasn’t kept and Jesus specifically and irrefutably promised him an eternal throne in Heaven – Matthew 19:28. “TWELVE” not eleven~!

At the time of this divinely-given promise, it is more than abundantly clear that Judas was eternally secure, otherwise Christ would have never given this promise to the “twelve” which includes Judas Iscariot (Matthew 19:28). It is only after this that Judas allowed iniquity in his heart and by his own deliberate will fell by his own iniquity (Acts 1:25; Heb. 3:12-15).

“Saying, I (Judas) have sinned in that I have betrayed the innocent blood. And they said, What is that to us? see thou to that.” Matthew 27:4

“Eternal security”? Don’t kid yourself. Moral cowards who refuse to take person accountability for their every thought, motive, and deed love this lie. Satan’s first lie – which led to the fall of mankind (Gen 2:17; 3:4).

“For if AFTER they have escaped the pollutions of the world through the knowledge of the Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, they are AGAIN entangled therein, and overcome, the latter end is worse with them than the beginning. 21 For it had been better for them not to have known the way of righteousness, than, AFTER they have known it, to turn from the holy commandment delivered unto them.” 2 Peter 2:20-21

WHAT ABOUT JUDAS? [podcast]

The Son of Perdition Exposed Dear eternal security adherent: You cannot take one verse or passage and make a conclusion without the whole of Scripture agreeing. Judas was chosen, sent out by Christ to preach Christ’s Gospel, raise the dead, and heal the sick (Matthew 10:1-8), and was promised a throne in Heaven (Matthew 19:28) and died and went to Hell for betraying Jesus (Acts 1:25). He followed Christ and then departed from the Son of God. Jesus says that one can believe and then “fall away” (Luke 8:13). Are you going to call the Son of God a liar? […]

John Calvin Exposed

The Cult of Calvin: Exploding the Diabolical 5-Point Mythology of Calvinism In my personal opinion and from decades of observation, it appears to be evident that those in ministry who teach Calvin’s doctrines were subverted by those who taught them before they ever personally learned God’s Word themselves. They were taught this lie growing up and/or in the seminaries they attended before they had studied unto the LORD and gained a foundation in His Word (2 Tim. 2:15; 3:16-17). Like most false doctrines, Calvinistic teachings have an inoculating effect upon those who have been deceived by this teaching. Beholding John Calvin’s abominable […]

Grace vs Holiness [podcast]

“The horrible travesty we have in America today is Christianity without holiness.” A.W. Tozer Grace and holiness come only from God. The LORD is Holy and He extends salvation by grace to repentant, believing sinners at the moment of conversion. Grave vs Holiness: WHY is one of these two so overwhelmingly overemphasized by today’s pastors and self-appointed “grace teachers,” when the other is prioritized by God as is demonstrated by the number of times it appears in Holy Scripture? Which word appears more times in the Bible?: Grace, or Holiness LET’S DO THE MATH: Comparing Grace and Holiness 170 […]

The Majestic Eternal Word [podcast]

“We have also a more sure word of prophecy; whereunto ye do well that ye take heed, as unto a light that shineth in a dark place, until the day dawn, and the day star arise in your hearts: 20 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 1:19-21

Did you know that God has magnified His Word even above His holy name?

“I will worship toward thy holy temple, and praise thy name for thy lovingkindness and for thy truth: for thou hast magnified thy word above all thy name.” Psalms 138:2

Why Did God Give Us His Word? [podcast]

The 4 Pillar Purposes for the Holy Scriptures There are 4 reasons detailed in 2 Timothy 3:16 for the Holy Scriptures being given to us by God. Under the inspiration of the Holy Ghost, the apostle Paul wrote: “All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness.” 2 Timothy 3:16 According to this verse, the Bible, God’s very Word, has been given to the people of God for 4 reasons: Doctrine, reproof, correction, and instruction in righteousness. Let us take a brief look at these 4 reasons […]

How We Know the Bible is the only Holy Book on Planet Earth [podcast]

Only God knows the future. Law of probability and the fulfillment of Bible prophecies: Odds of the 332 prophecies of the prophets concerning the coming Messiah, given hundreds of years prior to His arrival coming true are: 8,749,002,899,132,046,697,490,008,908,470,485,461,412,622,723,572,849,745,… 703,082,425,425,639,811,996,797,503,692,894,052,708,092,215,296 to 1 Fact: Only the Almighty could know the future and forthtell it in specific detail, long before it ever happened. THIS is how we know that the Bible is truly the Word of the one true God and that all other so-called “holy books” are frauds. “Heaven and earth shall pass away: but my words shall not pass away.” […]

The Victory of the Crucified Life [podcast]

The victory of God in your life comes through the victory of Jesus’ life, death, burial, and resurrection. And thereafter, from adhering to His instructions on how to walk with Him – the way of the cross. WHO are truly Christ’s? “And they that are Christ’s have crucified the flesh with the affections and lusts (the cross, crucified life).” Galatians 5:24 Read that verse above again. Memorize it. There are many who claim to be Christians, followers of Jesus, yet regrettably, but a miniscule few are actually His, are actually serving the Son of God on His stated terms – […]
