Billy Graham Exposed as a masonic lodge, vatican agent, a false prophet

The idolaters who walk in the flesh will be enraged at the thought that Billy Graham was a false prophet. They love and live in the flesh. They love this present world and the love of the Father is not in them (1 John 2:15; James 4:4). Instead of upholding the Bible as final divine authority, which features Jesus and the apostles and prophets, counterfeit idolaters of mere sinful men want to be like Billy Graham. Sad.

It’s past due time to get rid of the proxies and with open arms, heart, and mind to worship the one true God, Jesus Christ.

“And we know that the Son of God is come, and hath given us an understanding, that we may know him that is true, and we are in him that is true, even in his Son Jesus Christ. This is the true God, and eternal life. 21 Little children, keep yourselves from idols. Amen.” 1 John 5:20-21

With no exception, every idolater is going to hell (Exodus 20:3-5; Galatians 5:19-21; Revelation 21:8, etc.).

WHO died for your sins? Did Billy Graham die on the cross for your sins or did Jesus Christ?

“One of the most troubling problems within the church today is the unwavering loyalty to a ‘christian’ personality rather than to Christ and His Word. The unwillingness to test every man’s teaching with God’s Word, coupled with a stubborn lack of discernment, produces fertile ground for deception to flourish.” Evangeline DiChristi

Billy Graham was loved by virtually everybody.

Jesus told us that “the world would love his own…”

If a man is loved by the world and every false prophet on the planet, what does that reveal about that man? Read these words of Jesus closely:

“If ye were of the world, the world would love his own: but because ye are not of the world, but I have chosen you out of the world, therefore the world hateth you.” John 15:19

Compare what Jesus said in contrast with the celebrity preachers of our day….. hmmmmmm Jesus said:

“I receive not honour from men. … How can ye believe, which receive honour one of another, and seek not the honour that cometh from God only?” John 5:41, 44

The disciples at the town of Berea weren’t impressed with the LORD Jesus’ apostle Paul, the most profound disciple in New Testament history, who was given his revelation straight from Jesus and penned half of the books in the New Testament canon of the Holy Bible. In light of this, why O why would any true disciple of Jesus be impressed with Billy Graham or any other modern “celebrity” minister?

“And the brethren immediately sent away Paul and Silas by night unto Berea: who coming thither went into the synagogue of the Jews. 11 These were more noble than those in Thessalonica, in that they received the word with all readiness of mind, and searched the scriptures daily, whether those things were so.” Acts 17:10-11

The Berean’s tested what Paul taught with the written Word. Why would a genuine Christian balk at the teachings of Billy Graham being tested against the Word of God?

The man of God, the man who truly fears the LORD will determine to know nothing but Christ, and Christ crucified.

“For I determined not to know any thing among you, save Jesus Christ, and him crucified.” 1 Corinthians 2:2

If you wish to start a firestorm, dare to put to the test the pet heretical doctrines and “idol shepherds” of those not grounded in Christ, in His Word, as they should be (Zechariah 11:17). May God use this to shake to the core all who name Jesus as their LORD.

“Nevertheless the foundation of God standeth sure, having this seal, The Lord knoweth them that are his. And, Let every one that nameth the name of Christ depart from iniquity.” 2 Timothy 2:19

Yet today we have multitudes of people who insist upon propping up the image of a false prophet who was and is presently heralded as “the greatest evangelist.” Let’s put that claim to the test, weighing it against Holy Scripture (Acts 17:10-11).

“People don’t like their idols messed with. I shared this on my social page and am getting persecuted for it. Many aspire to be like him, Billy Graham, instead of being like Jesus! One lady told me the video was fake.” Karen Cochran

“Cease ye from man, whose breath is in his nostrils: for wherein is he to be accounted of? Isaiah 2:22

Saints, mere men will change but God and His Word are immutably divinly perfect and unchanging.

This is why Jesus instructs us to uphold Him and His Word as final divine authority – because men can and will change and apostatize, they will “depart from the faith” (1 Timothy 4:1-2). It didn’t say they’d depart from spreading their lies from the pulpit or internet or books. Selah. Beware.

“Heaven and earth shall pass away: but my words shall not pass away.” Mark 13:31

To those who bid “God speed” to false teachers, wolves, running like a gullible dupe to the defense of that which is indefensible, I want to level a severe warning at you: The Word of God is clear – If you dare attempt to “conceal,” if you cover for and/or support a false prophet, you will go to Hell with that fraud because you are standing against the Almighty as you side with evil and evil doers (Deuteronomy 13:1-10; 2 Peter 2:1-3). Repent now.

“Neither shalt thou conceal (cover for) him (false leaders).” Deuteronomy 13:8

Read Deuteronomy 13:1-10 closely.

Do you realize that Deuteronomy 13:1-10 is a severe warning to God’s people about prophets, ministers who give a prophecy and that prophecy actually comes to pass, is accurate? YET then ….. that same minister who ministered correctly (principally) teaches falsehood, teaches falsely concerning the LORD and His kingdom. The divine warning is that you are strictly never to side with him, to pity him, or to seek to preserve his reputation. He is but a mere man and God’s people must never dare “conceal” the fact that he has chosen to turn into a wolf and spread lies that bear false witness against the LORD, that violate, contradict His Word.

“Thou shalt not consent unto him, nor hearken unto him; neither shall thine eye pity him, neither shalt thou spare, neither shalt thou conceal (cover for) him:” Deuteronomy 13:8

Okay another example to help us understand the simple logic in this divine command and warning, would be that there are crimes on the books in every state which forbid us to give refuge to a criminal, a person who has committed a crime, has a warrant out for their arrest and is now a fugitive. Here is one such law:

“Section 1071 makes it an offense to harbor or conceal any person for whose arrest a warrant or process has been issued, so as to prevent the fugitive’s discovery and arrest, after having notice or knowledge that a warrant or process has been issued for the fugitive’s apprehension.”

Okay, let’s drill down a bit in order to make sure we are beginning to understand the LORD: So think about this: Let’s say you have a friend who for years shows great love to your friends and family. Then that same friend begins to slander and do wrong to your friends and family. What do you do? You sever yourself from that “friend” who has now made himself an enemy. Why? -Because your allegiance is to your family and friends, right? Right. With this in mind, can we not see that we must cling to the LORD first and foremost and give no one else that “first love” position but the LORD Himself (Revelation 2:4-5)?

“If there come any unto you, and bring not this doctrine, receive him not into your house, neither bid him God speed: 11 For he that biddeth him God speed is partaker of his evil deeds.” 2 John 10-11

Wolf defenders beware: Your problem is that you care more for the image, the reputation of a false prophet, a vile enemy of Christ, than you do for the millions he has deceived. Repent and change your perspective to the Word of God. God’s glory is what matters not sinful man’s reputation (1 Corinthians 1:29-2:5; 2 Corinthians 3:5; 4:5, etc.).

“(For many walk, of whom I have told you often, and now tell you even weeping, that they are the enemies of the cross of Christ: 19 Whose end is destruction, whose God is their belly, and whose glory is in their shame, who mind earthly things.)” Philippians 3:18-19

The following response was given to a woman who leveled to several believers the accusation that we were “heresy hunters.”

YOU are actually the one destroying the body of Christ by aiding and abetting wolves. Repent now. This is a ridiculous response. It’s sounds like you are all about YOU and not the LORD, the Word. Just because YOU don’t know the WORD and supposedly don’t have the evidence doesn’t speak for anyone else.

You used the lame debunked “heresy hunter” cop-out and cover up of which you are apparently guilty. That’s a phrase spawned by frauds like Benny Hinn, and Paul the homo TBN. It was an attempted cover up of their crimes and greed-driven heresies.

It is the spirit of antichrist in you who is driving you to defend these antichrists (1 John 4:1-4).

You said that you “learned that long ago” and yes you learned and heard this from the greed-driven Word of faith TBN wolves. You heard and learned that but you didn’t learn the Word of God – because the LORD is not important enough to you to get into His Word for yourself as Scripture mandates (2 Tim 2:15). And God is going to judge you for covering for His enemies, sinner. Watch out saints for those who “conceal” the wolves who are devouring Christ’s sheep for whom He died. According to Scripture, you are the enemy of the LORD as you have sided with those who are “enemies of the cross of Christ” (Phil 3:18-19). Repent now – before it’s too late. You are marked – Rom 16:17-18

MESSAGE RECEIVED:

“I was absolutely heart broken to learn of this years ago (about Billy Graham). I could not believe it. So heart breaking to learn of his free Mason status too.“ Tracy

REPLY:

Yes dear sister….AND you were teachable, and you put JESUS first above all…. and He brought you through it as He is slaying the idols of the hearts of His true people. Ezekiel 14:1-3

SAINTS, COULD THIS BE ANY CLEARER?

1 Corinthians 1:29
That NO FLESH should glory in his presence.

1 Corinthians 1:31
That, according as it is written, He that glorieth, let him glory in THE LORD.

1 Corinthians 3:21
Therefore LET NO MAN GLORY IN MEN. For all things are yours;

Yet as has been pointed out by a sister in Christ, the modern church has sold its prey on this idea of …. “I want to be like Billy Graham.” Disgusting. Repentance needed. Billy Graham was a mere man, a sinner, as masonic lodge Luciferian, and after preaching a half-truth false gospel apostatized/departed to collude in an unholy alliance with the idols of the pagan Roman cult, mystery Babylon religion, which God will destroy in just “one hour” (Revelation 17-18).

Some are saying “How dare you say Billy Graham misrepresented God!” Could it be that they say this because they aren’t in the Word of God and sincerely seeking the LORD for themselves and that’s why they wanted to just get their image of “God” from a mere man – instead of straight from the LORD Himself? The LORD commands:

“Look unto ME, and be ye saved, all the ends of the earth: for I am God, and there is none else.” Isaiah 45:22

Question: WHO died and rose again from the dead to save you to Himself and His Father in Heaven? Jesus. So, WHO deserves your pure, whole worship? Jesus. Is today your day to get before God in sincere repentance for considering mere men to be above that which is written of them – that they have “ALLLLL sinned” and come short of the glory of God (Romans 3:10, 23, etc.)?

“And these things, brethren, I have in a figure transferred to myself and to Apollos for your sakes; that ye might learn in us NOT TO THINK OF MEN ABOVE THAT WHICH IS WRITTEN, that no one of you be puffed up for one against another.” 1 Corinthians 4:6

AND what is it that “is written” about mere men?

“For there is not a just man upon earth, that doeth good, and sinneth not.” Ecclesiastes 7:20

“The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked: who can know it?” Jeremiah 17:9

“As it is written, There is none righteous, no, not one:” Romans 3:10

The Bible evokes in God’s true remnant the desire …. the cry, “I want to follow and be like Jesus – conformed to His holy image! He must increase but I must decrease” (John 3:30; Romans 8:29)

In case the point has not been made clear enough, notice how some of the modern wolves in sheep’s clothing have changed things as shown below….

1 Corinthians 1:31
That, according as it is written, He that glorieth, let him glory in BILLY GRAHAM.

“They don’t want their idols exposed. They defend BG but won’t stand when the name of Jesus is mocked or blasphemed. That’s why the Bereans were more noble because they didn’t even believe Paul. They checked the word for themselves. BG was a mere man! Just like any of us! Romans 3:4” Karen Cochran

Just “one mediator”

“For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus; 6 who gave himself a ransom for all, to be testified in due time.” 1 Timothy 2:5-6

There’s more than “a little” false doctrine Graham spewed out and the Bible says “A little leaven leaveneth the whole lump” (Galatians 5:9).

“But God forbid that I should glory, save in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, by whom the world is crucified unto me, and I unto the world.” Galatians 6:14

As you will see on the videos below, Billy Graham, out of his own mouth, openly denied that Jesus is the only way to God.

“The Billy Graham Association (Whatever they are called) said this was not a slip up because Billy Graham wrote the same thing in his ‘Decision’ magazine in the 1960’s. I would hope that ALL of this is a mistake and that he actually believes Jesus is the ONLY way, but he said something similar on Larry King.” Odom

Witness for yourself how the message Billy Graham preached in the beginning is different from the one he died preaching. Billy Graham was clearly an apostate who ended his life as a pawn of the Vatican and teaching blasphemous doctrine that denied that Jesus is the only way to God and to Heaven.

“Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves. 16 Ye shall know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles? … 20 Wherefore by their fruits ye shall know them.” Matthew 7:15-16, 20

There are NO heroes in the kingdom of Christ except Jesus Himself. Many among us are “not holding the Head,” Jesus Christ – which means they have idols.

“Let no man beguile you of your reward in a voluntary humility and worshipping of angels, intruding into those things which he hath not seen, vainly puffed up by his fleshly mind, 19 And NOT HOLDING THE HEAD, from which all the body by joints and bands having nourishment ministered, and knit together, increaseth with the increase of God.” Colossians 2:18-19

Scripture cites Israel for making idols out of their own shepherds:

“Woe to the idol shepherd that leaveth the flock! the sword shall be upon his arm, and upon his right eye: his arm shall be clean dried up, and his right eye shall be utterly darkened.” Zechariah 11:17

Of this passage, Adam Clarke notes:

“Woe to the idol shepherd – רעי האליל roi haelil, ‘the foolish,’ or ‘good for nothing shepherd.’ The shepherd in name and office, but not performing the work of one. See Joh_10:11.”

Anyone who yokes with, meets with, and agrees with an antichrist, proves himself to be one of the “many antichrists” (1 John 2:18).

“I marvel that ye are so soon removed from him that called you into the grace of Christ unto another gospel: 7 which is not another; but there be some that trouble you, and would pervert the gospel of Christ. 8 But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel unto you than that which we have preached unto you, let him be accursed. 9 As we said before, so say I now again, If any man preach any other gospel unto you than that ye have received, let him be accursed.” Galatians 1:6-9

Jesus made it clear that He is not “a way” but rather “the way.”

“Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.” John 14:6

“Billy Graham was the biggest heretic of our time who many idolize and say ‘if only I could be like him.’ Aren’t we supposed to be like Jesus?” Karen Cochran

Billy Graham says out of his own mouth, in the videos below, that basically everyone is going to Heaven. Every pagan Catholic, Mormon, etc., who is not born again, is a member of Christ’s body, according to Billy Graham. Who is lying? – Jesus or Billy Graham? False teacher. Matthew 7:13-14; 1 Timothy 2:5

SOMEONE IS LYING – EITHER JESUS CHRIST OR BILLY GRAHAM

Compare what abortion approving, Catholic colluder, popish pawn Billy Graham says about Hell (see his heresy on Hell below). Now let’s see what Jesus says about Hell below. Someone is lying – is it Jesus or 33rd degree mason Billy Graham?

“…I think people have a hard time believing God is going to allow people to burn in literal fire forever. I think the fire that is mentioned in the Bible is a burning thirst for God that can never be quenched.” Billy Graham

“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. 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: Where their worm dieth not, and the fire is not quenched. 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: Where their worm dieth not, and the fire is not quenched. 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: Where their worm dieth not (denotes complete consciousness), and the fire is not quenched. For every one shall be salted with fire, and every sacrifice shall be salted with salt. 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

Graham Guardian Rebuked

To a man who was highly upset that I dared share this information about Billy Graham on social media, the response he was given is as follows:

“First off, are you truly born again and presently walking in the truth, in God’s Word? The deception you are walking in is concerning.

You speak so very extensively and glowingly about Billy Graham, a mere man. When’s the last time you spent that kind of time and energy exclaiming the one LORD Jesus Christ, the nail scarred risen Savior? When’s the last time you personally led someone to Jesus?

It saddens me for you that you defend, you bid Godspeed to a man who denied Christ was the only way to God, to Heaven and who colluded with the Roman pope and cult to deceive believers to enter into the one world antichrist church/religion – Revelation 17-18.

I made those statements standing on both feet, with every ounce of my weight…. after studying this topic closely for decades. I warn you not to operate in foolishness/folly by speaking on a matter you have not thoroughly investigated – per Proverbs 18:13. There is not ample evidence posted in this thread for you to review.”

So many idolaters arguing to keep this mere man, sinner, as their idol when they’ve never looked into the facts and compared what Graham stated next to the Word of God (Proverbs 18:13).

“Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved.” Acts 4:12

Graham was clearly a false prophet – perhaps the most prolific in NT history. Repent of the idolatry of making this mere sinful man your protestant pope. Read Isaiah 2:22; Jer. 17:5. On Larry King live Graham said all religions are part of the body of Christ. He also said that the pope is the best Christian on earth. He said on record publicly that the way to God is broad/wide. Jesus says otherwise.

“Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat: 14 Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it.” Matthew 7:13-14

Billy Graham Exposed

Are You an Idolater? The first thing we must do is deal with the sin of spiritual adultery where one Christ has previously saved has since alienated the affections of their heart away from the divine Person of Jesus Christ and onto something, someone, anything else (Colossians 2:18-19; 1 John 5:20-21, etc.). If you are disturbed or crushed by the idea that your hero, Billy Graham, was a sell out, perhaps you should consider that you have an idolatrous heart that is committing spiritual adultery on the LORD.

Unity at the Expense of Truth is the Work of Satan! Expose it! The sword of divine truth, Word of God, divides people into two groups – 1. Those who repent, believe, and obey it and, 2.

God blesses those who read His Word

“Blessed is he that readeth” Revelation 1:3

“Seek ye out of the book of the LORD, and READ.” Isaiah 34:16

YES God’s people are to “study” His Word and how else to do such than to begin by “READING” His words? 2 Tim 2:15

“Till I come, give attendance to READING, to exhortation, to doctrine.” 1 Timothy 4:13

“Bless is he that READETH ….” Revelation 1:3

Years ago I found that if I don’t get up early to read God’s Word and spend quality moments in prayer first and foremost, it will never happen. God must be put first and this requires ruthless discipline.

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

Reading all of God’s Word is the priority of ever astute follower of Jesus.

There’s no way to learn God’s Word other than reading it yourself (2 Timothy 2:15) God gave you His Word in tangible format in order for you to learn of Him from Him and by Him. Those who leave it to others to teach them God’s Word are self-deceived and will be misled by those they depend on to teach them the Bible.

GOD’S WORD

Saints, in order that some may be encouraged, below, let’s talk about our current personal Bible reading…..

“Presently, I am in 1 Kings, reading all the way through the Bible again, and also reading through Revelation backwards. Personally I like to read several chapters every morning to begin the day and like to include OT, Poetic books, and New Testament chapter readings….. along with pouring over passages like 1 Cor 13; Phil 2:3-5; Col. 3:1-4, 12-14;” Todd

“In 1 Thessalonians reading through the Bible.” Jason

“I am reading Mark.” Michele

“Philippians—Paul’s letter in prison—and joy.” Joe

“I Been Reading James And 1st An 2nd Peter This Week.” Connie

“Working my way through 1 Sam (ch 14 finished now) Psalms 77 and John chapter 4 finished. Trying to read through in 6 months. I enjoy listening (KJB on YouTube) while I read also.” Nathan

“Thank you. Very edifying podcast. I remember getting away from God’s Word. When I came back I was told to read Psalm 119. I spent probably a year in it. And it is impossible not to see the love David had for the Word of God. That began to spill out into my heart! Now I never miss a day. Everyday the Holy Spirit gives me new revelations! And I keep saying ‘Jesus thank You so much for putting the love for You and Your precious Word in the hearts of Your people! We can’t do it. It comes from the Spirit of God.” Karen Cochran

Ignorance and Gullibility are a Curse “The simple (silly, seducible, foolish) believeth every word: but the prudent man looketh well to his going.” Proverbs 14:15 Are you silly or savvy? Concerning the most important Book in the world, are you ignorant or intelligent? ALL who remain too lazy to diligently study God’s Word for themselves prove they do not love Christ or truth and will be sent “strong delusion” and “damned.” (2 Thessalonians 2:9-12) “Destroyed for Lack of Knowledge” In the days of Hosea the prophet and today, there are many who claiming to know the LORD and yet are void of the […]

God's Word always accomplishes that for which he sends it forth #christianity #motivation #god

“So shall my word be that goeth forth out of my mouth: it shall not return unto me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent it.” Isaiah 55:11 In ministry many times we get to thinking it’s OUR duty to EXPLAIN the Scriptures, the Word to people. Not. First and foremost our God-given duty is to teach and “preach the word” – thereby getting into the hearts of the people so GOD can teach them. It would be better to simply read pure Scripture than to just be […]

Church History or the Scriptures? [podcast]

Beware of those who without saying it outright, place church history on the same level as the Holy Scriptures. Such men are false (Matthew 23). We get our view, perspective, knowledge, and understanding of God via His own Word. Everything else is secondary, every extra-biblical source, is unnecessary, and can be a diversion. Beware saints. Many today have a skewed understanding of Scripture because instead of allowing the Holy Spirit to teach them His pure truth through the study of His Word, they’ve researched and studied what mere men have stated about the Bible. This they did instead of studying […]

“Thine Enemies Roar in the Midst of Thy Congregations” [podcast]

Lucifer was cast down from Heaven and is now called Satan. He invaded the sinless pristine environment of the Garden of Eden. Check out Ezekiel 28:12-19. Read Psalm 74:4, 7. Satan infiltrates that which is ordained to be the place of the worship of God. He breathes his “strange fire” into those sanctuaries to destroy them.

Is the name of Jesus emphasized in your fellowship? Or has it been replaced with the worship of mere men?

“Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is NONE OTHER NAME under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved.” Acts 4:12

“Which think to cause my people to forget my name BY THEIR DREAMS which they tell every man to his neighbour, as their fathers have forgotten my name for Baal.” Jeremiah 23:27

Fascinating Details Revealed about Lucifer in Eternity Past

Is it any wonder that Satan seeks to infiltrate and subvert the worship of the Most High? As we know he was “in Eden the garden of God.” Here in Ezekiel 28, we see the law of double reference where this applies to and speaks of the king of Tyrus and also Lucifer:

“Son of man, take up a lamentation upon the king of Tyrus, and say unto him, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Thou sealest up the sum, full of wisdom, and perfect in beauty. 13 Thou hast been in Eden the garden of God; every precious stone was thy covering, the sardius, topaz, and the diamond, the beryl, the onyx, and the jasper, the sapphire, the emerald, and the carbuncle, and gold: the workmanship of thy tabrets and of thy pipes was prepared in thee in the day that thou wast created. 14 Thou art the anointed cherub that covereth; and I have set thee so: thou wast upon the holy mountain of God; thou hast walked up and down in the midst of the stones of fire. 15 Thou wast perfect in thy ways from the day that thou wast created, till iniquity was found in thee. 16 By the multitude of thy merchandise they have filled the midst of thee with violence, and thou hast sinned: therefore I will cast thee as profane out of the mountain of God: and I will destroy thee, O covering cherub, from the midst of the stones of fire. 17 Thine heart was lifted up because of thy beauty, thou hast corrupted thy wisdom by reason of thy brightness: I will cast thee to the ground, I will lay thee before kings, that they may behold thee. 18 Thou hast defiled thy sanctuaries by the multitude of thine iniquities, by the iniquity of thy traffick; therefore will I bring forth a fire from the midst of thee, it shall devour thee, and I will bring thee to ashes upon the earth in the sight of all them that behold thee. 19 All they that know thee among the people shall be astonished at thee: thou shalt be a terror, and never shalt thou be any more.” Ezekiel 28:12-19

Adam Clarke writes:

“Jeremiah 23:27
By their dreams – Dreams were anciently reputed as a species of inspiration; see Num_12:6; 1Sa_28:6; Joe_3:1; Dan_7:1. In the Book of Genesis we find many examples; and although many mistook the workings of their own vain imaginations in sleep for revelations from God, yet he has often revealed himself in this way: but such dreams were easily distinguished from the others. They were always such as had no connection with the gratification of the flesh; they were such as contained warnings against sin, and excitements to holiness; they were always consecutive – well connected, with a proper beginning and ending; such as possessed the intellect more than the imagination. Of such dreams the Lord says, (Jer_23:28): The prophet that hath a dream, let him tell a dream – permit him to show what he has thus received from the Lord: but let him tell it as a dream, and speak my word faithfully, lest he may have been deceived.”

Of Jeremiah 23:27-29 Believer’s Bible Commentary notes:

“23:23-29 The omnipresent and omniscient God exposes the prophets for their dreams, which led people into idolatry. Their dreams were chaff compared to God’s word, which is like nutritious wheat, and also like fire and . . . a hammer.”

As seen here in Jeremiah 23, dreams are one way false prophets get His people to forget Him, His holy name.

As an earthly father or mother, picture some other man or woman seeking to draw your child away from you, to intercept and usurp the affections of your child’s heart which belong to you, the parent and no one else.

Do we begin to see why God’s very name is Jealous?

“For thou shalt worship no other god: for the LORD, whose name is Jealous, is a jealous God:” Exodus 34:14

In Psalm 74, Satan and his human emmissaries are depicted in their evil endeavor to unseat God’s people from their pure worship of Him and therefore leading them to enter into sinful, damning idolatry – the worship of another god. See the first and second commandments in Exodus 20.

“Thine enemies roar in the midst of thy congregations; they set up their ensigns for signs.” Psalms 74:4

“Ensigns” here means flags, monuments. We’ve all seen the monument of the Marines raising the American flag at Iwo Jima Japan after having through much bloodshed, conquered that plot of land. It marked a great victory and turn in that war.

Are you beginning to see a picture form?

Whenever an opposing army conquers that which belongs to their enemy, they plant their flag as a monument, a marker to their now conquering, possessing, and having reign over what was their enemy’s territory, domain.

While the enemy of our souls seeks to displace our flag, our banner, our pure allegiance to Christ, we must plant the banner, flagpole of our unadulterated allegiance, fidelity, and loyalty to Him.

“But God forbid that I should glory, save in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, by whom the world is crucified unto me, and I unto the world.” Galatians 6:14

“Jesus must be our all in all! Your first love! ‘Thou shall love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind’.” Matt 22: 37-40.” Karen Cochran

Daily, I must ask and ascertain what my true identity is!

“For I determined not to know any thing among you, save Jesus Christ, and him crucified.” 1 Corinthians 2:2

The enemy of God who is Satan and his human agents, seek to infiltrate and bring the “strange fire” of their false teachings and un-biblical practices in the midst of what is supposed to be the pure worship of the LORD (Leviticus 10:1-3). Isn’t this exactly what Jesus violently rebuked and destroyed when He cleansed the temple of the greed-driven, covetous money changers who had made the place of worship into a den of thieves to rob the LORD of His glory and the people of their blessing to worship Him? Read Matthew 21 and John 2.

When the Communists (Satanic form of government) come in and begin taking over another country, they remove and replace the leadership and remove the historical landmarks that remind the people of what made their country great. As all can plainly see, as an example of this warfare strategy, that men who were more noble have been replaced by wicked men and women who obey unlawful, evil orders. Communists control and change the food supply to the people (natural food and spiritual food). They change the constitution, the rule of law of that nation they are infiltrating and taking over. In the same way, Satan seeks to replace those who faithfully feed the flock of God with hireling wolves in sheep’s clothing (Matthew 7:15). The enemy seeks to rob, to steal, kill, and destroy that spiritual food which feeds the faith of the remnant elect of God. So he changes the Word of God, the Constitution of Christ’s kingdom. This is why he has changed the Bible, the words of God, and has removed the Holy Bible (KJB) from front and center of our gatherings.

“And the burden of the LORD shall ye mention no more: for every man’s word shall be his burden; for ye have perverted the words of the living God, of the LORD of hosts our God.” Jeremiah 23:36

“And they continued stedfastly in THE APOSTLES’ DOCTRINE (Word) and fellowship, and in breaking of bread, and in prayers.” Acts 2:42

When God’s people don’t “continue(d) stedfastly in the apostles’ doctrine” they will famish and perish.

“Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom; teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord.” Colossians 3:16

Of this intriguing psalm, one writer notes:

“Psalm 74—If You Choose To Let It In, You Have To Let It Stay – The enemy cried ‘Victory’ in the midst of a place that evil should never have touched.”

“Keep thy heart with all diligence; for out of it are the issues of life.” Proverbs 4:23

Do we have a pure or an adulterous heart? Is Jesus truly our “first love”? See Revelation 2:4-5.

You and I are in a battle for our eternal souls. Nothing could be more serious or consequential. Following Christ in the crucified life is essential to victory.

“And from the days of John the Baptist until now the kingdom of heaven suffereth violence, and the violent take it by force.” Matthew 11:12

“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

“Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour.” 1 Peter 5:8

“Thou therefore endure hardness, as a good soldier of Jesus Christ. 4 No man that warreth entangleth himself with the affairs of this life; that he may please him who hath chosen him to be a soldier.” 2 Timothy 2:3-4

“Not Holding the HEAD” = Not upholding Christ.

“In whom are hid all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge. 4 And this I say, lest any man should beguile you with enticing words. 5 For though I be absent in the flesh, yet am I with you in the spirit, joying and beholding your order, and the stedfastness of your faith in Christ. 6 As ye have therefore received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk ye in him: 7 Rooted and built up in him, and stablished in the faith, as ye have been taught, abounding therein with thanksgiving. 8 Beware 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. 9 For in him dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead bodily. 10 And ye are complete in him, which is the head of all principality and power: 11 In whom also ye are circumcised with the circumcision made without hands, in putting off the body of the sins of the flesh by the circumcision of Christ: 12 Buried with him in baptism, wherein also ye are risen with him through the faith of the operation of God, who hath raised him from the dead. 13 And you, being dead in your sins and the uncircumcision of your flesh, hath he quickened together with him, having forgiven you all trespasses; 14 Blotting out the handwriting of ordinances that was against us, which was contrary to us, and took it out of the way, nailing it to his cross; 15 And having spoiled principalities and powers, he made a shew of them openly, triumphing over them in it. 16 Let no man therefore judge you in meat, or in drink, or in respect of an holyday, or of the new moon, or of the sabbath days: 17 Which are a shadow of things to come; but the body is of Christ. 18 Let no man beguile you of your reward in a voluntary humility and worshipping of angels, intruding into those things which he hath not seen, vainly puffed up by his fleshly mind, 19 And not holding the Head, from which all the body by joints and bands having nourishment ministered, and knit together, increaseth with the increase of God.” Colossians 2:3-19

At the root of this Bible message exposing the works of Satan, is “the spirit of antichrist” which is come to subvert, to intercept the pure worship of Christ, the only “HEAD” of the body He purchased with His precious blood on that cross (John 19:30; 1 John 4:1-4). Anti in the biblical word “antichrist” means in place of. Now reflect upon how Satan comes into the midst of where God is supposed to be worshiped and puts something, anything in place of Christ. There my friend, is the work of “many antichrists” at work in the modern church world. And note that the Bible informs us that there are “many antichrists” (1 John 2:18).

The devil has stolen the holy fire and the Word of God. What has such produced?

CAN anyone show us a good church member who is actually devouring, memorizing, and meditating on God’s Word daily and evangelizing the lost? I doubt it.

What does this reveal?

Just what kind of fruit is this?

Bad fruit.

“Jesus answered them, and said, My doctrine is not mine, but his that sent me.” John 7:16, 20

Read Psalms 74 each morning this week. Your understanding will be greatly increased concerning the tactics of the enemy.

PRAYER: Father in Jesus’ name, please unite my heart to fear Thy name. Circumcize my wicked heart. Separate, remove all evil, every trace of it from this life You gave. I am not my own but Yours, bought with a price. I am Your vessel, a temple of Your Holy Spirit. Please purify my heart dear LORD. Like Your servant Isaiah, I am a man of unclean lips and life. Wash me afresh with Thy precious blood dear LORD Jesus. From this moment forward, I am all Yours. Please use me mightilly, bearing much fruit for Your eternal glory. In the name of Jesus, amen.

“Strange Fire” in the Church World Today

— “STRANGE FIRE” !!! BEWARE of those who call out for and over emphasize the so called “fire of God.” Remember the false / “strange fire” of Aaron’s sons? “And Nadab and Abihu, the sons of Aaron, took either of them his censer, and put fire therein, and put incense thereon, and offered strange fire before the LORD, which he commanded them not. 2 And there went out fire from the LORD, and devoured them, and they died before the LORD.” Leviticus 10:1-2 Adam Clarke, of this passage, writes: “God intended that every part of his service should be conducted; and that every sacrifice might […]

Isaiah's Call and Commission [podcast]

What did the LORD reveal of Himself to Isaiah? What was the result in Isaiah’s life and ours? If we’re not talking about the holiness of the one true God – that He is “Holy, holy, holy” – what god are we speaking of? Isaiah 6 Isaiah’s Calling/Vision of the Lord 1 In the year that king Uzziah died I saw also the Lord sitting upon a throne, high and lifted up, and his train filled the temple. 2 Above it stood the seraphims: each one had six wings; with twain he covered his face, and with twain he covered […]

Dreams, Visions, Prophecies, and Supposed Apparitions [podcast]

Remember that Jesus says that His sheep hear His voice (John 10:16). The point of this message is in no way to limit God or foolishly claim He no longer speaks to people in dreams, visions, or the vocal gifts of the Holy Spirit (1 Corinthians 12:7-10; Hebrews 13:8). Yet, today, most of those claiming to be getting words, visions, dreams, and prophecies, are not grounded in Christ and most of them make it abundantly obvious by their lack of preaching the essential doctrines of the original Gospel such as Christ’s cross, judgment, hell, repentance, the necessity for personal holiness, […]

Are You a “Dream Chaser” or a Jesus Seeker? [podcast]

“I can of mine own self do nothing: as I hear, I judge: and my judgment is just; because I seek not mine own will, but the will of the Father which hath sent me.” John 5:30 Jesus didn’t come to the earth to seek His own will or dream His own dreams but rather to do the will of His Father. “And he was withdrawn from them about a stone’s cast, and kneeled down, and prayed, 42 Saying, Father, if thou be willing, remove this cup from me: nevertheless not my will, but thine, be done.” Luke 22:41-42 Christ’s […]
