God is Calling all Seminarian and Bible College Students, Graduates to Repent
INSTEAD of being proud that you went to seminary, you should consider humbling yourself and repenting of this rebellion and only then will the LORD use you mightily.
Speaking specifically of his own “higher learning” and vain “pedigree” as a learned Jew, Christ’s apostle Paul writes:
“But what things were gain to me, those I counted loss for Christ. 8 Yea doubtless, and I count all things but loss for the excellency of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord: for whom I have suffered the loss of all things, and do count them but dung, that I may win Christ, 9 And be found in him, not having mine own righteousness, which is of the law, but that which is through the faith of Christ, the righteousness which is of God by faith: 10 That I may know him, and the power of his resurrection, and the fellowship of his sufferings, being made conformable unto his death;” Philippians 3:7-10
Attention seminarian or Bible College student, graduate: Not only does seminary not prepare you to be used of God, it gives you many things to unlearn and costs you much more than just a lot of wasted money. The ONE who saved you (if you are in fact saved) is the only ONE who can sanctify and prepare you to serve HIM. Seminary is at its root, apostasy, a departing from God to mere sinful men. If you claim to be born again and yet run to men to prepare you, there should be great concern (Galatians 1:16-17). PLAIN PROOF: Today’s apostate modern so-called “churches” become as they are – ichabod – by way of the jesuit-trained seminarian hirelings who drove them headlong into that apostasy.
Going to seminary is a work of the flesh. We know this in the absence of Jesus ever sending one of His disciples to a so-called “higher learning” INSTITUTION of mere sinful men.
“Be not wise in your own conceits.” Romans 12:16
Our deceitful hearts can often mislead us – lead away from simple trust in God, with a whole heart and according to His Word (Proverbs 3:5-7). Many called out men have departed from Christ as a result of going the seminary route. Many who’ve chosen to deny Christ’s ability to prepare them, assuming the One who saved them can’t prepare them for HIS own work, have made shipwreck of their faith (1 Timothy 1:19).
“Thus saith the LORD; Cursed be the man that trusteth in man, and maketh flesh his arm, and whose heart departeth from the LORD. 6 For he shall be like the heath in the desert, and shall not see when good cometh; but shall inhabit the parched places in the wilderness, in a salt land and not inhabited. 7 Blessed is the man that trusteth in the LORD, and whose hope the LORD is. 8 For he shall be as a tree planted by the waters, and that spreadeth out her roots by the river, and shall not see when heat cometh, but her leaf shall be green; and shall not be careful in the year of drought, neither shall cease from yielding fruit. 9 The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked: who can know it?” Jeremiah 17:5-9
COUNTERFEIT ORDINATIONS BUSTED AND EXPOSED! SOMEONE please find seminary in God’s Word. Never mind don’t waste your time – it’s nowhere in God’s Word but is rather irrefutably the invention of the enemy of Christ himself, Satan.
BOMBSHELL! Satan’s seminarians are taught to prepare a sermon. Christ’s disciples are living God’s Word and walking in the Spirit and so are always “instant in season and out of season” to “Preach the word.” (2 Timothy 4:2-4; Proverbs 22:17-21).
Ministry is a divine calling, not a career or profession! Seminary training and degree forbidden! Seminarians cannot be used of God as He ordained, until they repent and utterly denounce their endeavor to be prepared of mere men and devils to do GOD’s work!
“Modern scholarship” comes out of the jesuit-corrupted seminaries and is a belly laugh. Layers and layers of lies covering its dirty tracts are stack up to “confirm” the previous lies. Most modern so-called “scholars” use Satan’s “bibles” which is all we need to know! The corrupt defend corrupted “bibles.” Any man who can use those horrible excuses for a Bible is in darkness. What’s that say for the lightweights many call “pastors” today? You have to cast away the “Spirit of truth” and the common sense God gave you to be indoctrinated by the doctors of damnation and to buy into the new “bible” version lies.

It’s amazing that people are willing to spend several years and tens of thousands of dollars being deceived in a seminary – learning how to doubt what God says in His Word and instead, rely upon the commentaries of mere sinful men whom they exalt above the ultimate, final authority of Holy Scripture. All they had to do is seek the LORD’s face in His Word daily, memorize, meditate upon, and live out His blessed Word. Yet, they refuse to simply fear God, study the Holy Scriptures daily, and walk in the Spirit. Because of this rebellion and refusal to truly fear God, the LORD has turned them over to “strong delusion.” (2 Thessalonians 2:9-12).
“When a man of God stands to speak, he ought to have the authority of God on him so that he makes the people responsible to listen to him. When they will not listen to him, they are accountable to God for turning away from the divine Word. In place of that needed authority, we have tabby cats with their claws carefully trimmed in the seminary, so they can paw over the congregations and never scratch them at all. They have had their claws trimmed and are just as soft and sweet as can be.” The Tozer Pulpit, Vol I
There are many ways to look at this topic. Here’s a thought: Just think of the tens of thousands of dollars that are spent by those who seek the praise of mere men instead of God’s approval. The average seminary graduate spends several years and tens of thousands of dollars on self – to be trained for a profession, to learn how not to take God at His Word, to learn the theologies of mere sinful men instead of simply learning Holy Scripture.
Of the false religionists of His day, Jesus said, “For they loved the praise (approval) of men more than the praise of God.” (John 12:43)
ARE ALL SEMINARIES WRONG?
That’s the problem, find a seminary that simply teaches God’s Word, the KJB….. None. And, WHY would a man need to seminary if he has a King James Bible? Unless he’s lazy and refuses to fast, pray, and get into the Word? I’ve been to 2 Bible colleges (which are far better than seminaries) and nearly all your studies are in textbooks, the commentaries of mere men…. learning what mere men said about God instead of learning what God Himself said in His Word for yourself…. they are laboratories of indoctrination…..
WHO calls and ordains and prepares men to serve HIMSELF? John 15:16 cased closed. There were no seminaries in the New Testament. Jesus nor His holy apostles sent no one to seminary. It’s a demonic trap to divert men from God and to the indoctrination of Satan himself. Find a seminary in God’s Word, namely the New Testament and I’ll change my mind. Not there.
No Bible College or seminary needed. Those Christ saves He sanctifies. They are in the school of the Word and Holy Ghost from the moment He saves them. Jesus sends men to the cross to be saved and to Pentecost to be baptized with the Holy Ghost. Otherwise they are out of his will!
Biblical famine has been perpetrated by a cross-less, perverse priesthood of seminarian wolves. The seminarians today are equivalent to the pharisees of Jesus’ day!
In the stated qualifications for an elder in the body of Christ, there is no mention of obtaining a degree from the world that claims to be of Christ via a “Christian” seminary (1 Timothy 3). I didn’t even hint that knowing the Word of God isn’t important YET WHO EVER SAID YOU NEED SEMINARY FOR SUCH?!!! Only a lazy fraud feels the need to pay a seminary tens of thousands of dollars to be indoctrinated by devils.
Seminarian sissies use sissy Bibles. The last thing they use is the real Bible – The King James Bible. Counterfeits use catholic corrupted and controlled counterfeit “bibles.”
“I know of a couple of pastors who have been trained only by the Bible and have such an anointing on their lives and speak such wonderful truths.” Anita A.
“Obeying the truth you already see will solve the enigmas of the verses you do not as yet understand. Disobeying the truth you see darkens the whole world of truth.” R.A. Torrey
This disciple also went to 2 Bible colleges…. and was blessed immensely upon denouncing on all that to embark on a true, dependent, walk with Jesus – trusting Him alone. Yes for sure Paul’s and this goes for all of our pasts…. God uses…. yet he clearly denounced his higher learning to gain, know, and be used of Christ (Philippians 3).
Satan’s seminarians are his invention to put the church on ice!
“The prayer room is the “boiler room” of the church. Let the fires of prayer go out and the light of revelation is diminished, the light of the Word goes out and the only fires that the world can hope to experience then are those of hell.” Mark Cowan
Mark Cowan further notes: “What happened? Did the so-called Bible schools start promoting degrees for their students in hopes that it would better their chances at a position, a job, OR did the churches start demanding that more of their preachers have degrees in order to ‘keep up’ with the rest of the business world? God’s criteria for training a Man of God was usually a desert setting not a dessert setting, with a few extra issues thrown in. Like, the Whys. How could God fearing believers let this slip in and why would they want it other than that their own hearts are apostate? (2 Timothy 3)”
Saints, Christ inducted each of us whom He’s saved into the school of the Holy Spirit and Word the moment He saved us! Only Jesus can call, prepared, and ordain a man to be HIS minister: “Ye have not chosen me, but I have chosen you, and ordained you, that ye should go and bring forth fruit, and that your fruit should remain: that whatsoever ye shall ask of the Father in my name, he may give it you.” (John 15:16)
THE FRUIT OF THE MODERN CHURCHES IS CLEAR PROOF THAT SATAN IS AT THE ROOT OF THE SEMINARIANS WHO’VE DRIVEN THEM INTO APOSTASY!
REVELATION from God via His written Word and Spirit are essential. Education without revelation is futile and only the Word and Holy Ghost can and will provide such in the abiding saint (John 15; 16:13-14; 1 John 2:20, 27). Mere man cannot furnish revelation. Only God can grant the revelation of Christ and His kingdom truth.
“You can have all the degrees you want but without Christ, The Holy Spirit and the Word of God active in you life, your spirit will be colder than Antarctica.” Mark Cowan

From brother Juan:
“Glory to God, brother! We know that the Word of God is not imprisoned. Jeremiah was in the prison courtyard, and God said, ‘Call to me, and I will answer you and tell you great and hidden things that you have not known.’ And we know that the word of God never returns empty; it always fulfills its purpose, brother. So we fully trust that God will do the work to expand His kingdom for His honor and glory. To Him be all the honor, brother. Blessings.” Juan

IF YOU SAINTS WEREN’T SO FAITHFUL TO JESUS, NONE OF THIS WOULD BE HAPPENING….. So while going to bring a good supply of food and household essentials to Clara and her boys, by divine ordination I tracked and spoke God’s Word to a Holy Spirit filled sister in Christ. Her name is Maria La Luz. She eagerly took about 100 or more JESUS tracts with her to distribute! That’s how Mexican people are. If they have something good to give, they give it! Boom.

Jesus Calling Devotional Exposed: 10 Things You Might Not Know
“I know so many who are so deceived by this book!! The author is a woman and she makes Jesus sound like your boyfriend who is so in love with you he can’t bare a minute without you! It is sickening! Plus she says the Bible was not enough for her. She needed more. This author died and if she did repent of her blasphemy against a holy God she is burning in hell as we speak. There are not two Jesus’s! This book presents a weak, tolerant of all your sin, pathetic, spineless ‘Jesus.’ This false ‘Jesus’ just sits in heaven google-eyed over you and how much He can’t live one minute without you in His presence! This is opposite of the fierce Christ who calls out sin and hypocrisy, who took a whip to the money changers and flipped over tables in righteous anger! Mathew 23 shows us some of the most severe rebukes in all the New Testament. This is the Jesus true disciples chose to follow! May this new documentary open the eyes of many so-called Christians to how demonic and evil this book is.” Karen Cochran
BEWARE of the Jesus Calling devotional book which is written by a full blown heretic, Sarah Young. This book continually assures things to lost souls (catholics, etc.) reserved only for the true Christian. It promises salvation, assurance, grace, mercy, the glory of God, etc to lost hell bound idolatrous sinners. Like antichrist Rick Warren’s Purpose Driven Life book, Jesus Calling never calls sinners to repent which is a Gospel essential and without which God will never save any soul from sin and hell (Luke 13:3, 5). You will never hear Jesus’ born again commanded or command to repent in this heretical devotional book title Jesus Calling. This monstrosity simply confirms sinners in their sin, sealing their doom in the lake of fire (Jeremiah 23:17; Lamentations 2:14, etc.).
Sarah Young is just another self-willed false prophet who does “ministry” her way, not God’s, in order to sell books and to mislead eternal souls into eternal damnation.
The blessings of God in Christ’s salvation are reserved only for those born again “in Christ,” and never for hell bound religious idolaters (John 15:7; 2 Corinthians 1:20; 2 Peter 1:1-4, etc.).
Stacy Strother writes:
“Her subtly, deceptive, doctrinally corrupt fairy tale version of what she calls bible studies for all the different ages of people, including children’s bible studies, teen and other, are found in the book stores—shelves filled full.
She is deceived, a false witness, False bible teacher, and has not heard from our Jesus—the Christ, Son of the living God, of which, is the very Word of God.
She hears from demons. Period! She needs to REPENT, and be born again! Please Lord Jesus, help her see her own demise!”

FEEDBACK:
“Solid Biblical refutation of the “New Age ” nonsense passing itself off as the latest thing God is doing. In our area a number of Churches have embraced this and other similar material with no discernment to the un-biblical nature of this drivel. Thank God for Warren B. Smith and others who provide an inestimable service to the Body of Christ as “watchmen on the wall.” Pastor Tom, West Harrison NY”

Jesus vs The Pope, Muhammad, Joseph Smith, and Ellen White [podcast]
*CORRECTION: Ellen White was the false prophet of the SDA (Seventh Day Adventists) and not the JW (Jehovah’s Witness) cult. Both the Seventh-day Adventists and the Jehovah’s Witnesses grew out of the Adventist movement of the 19th century, the Seventh-day Adventists specifically through the Millerites. Both still cults. Jesus Christ founded the Christian faith. The kingdom of Christ is revealed in the Bible which is the only divinely inspired holy Book on the planet and we know that because only God could know “the end from the beginning” which is something He declares and demonstrates in His Word (Isaiah 46:9-10).

What should be our view of and responsibility to God-ordained civil authorities?
In light of these truths, it seems wise to remove oneself and family from the country, state, or local jurisdiction that is not punishing evildoers as God has ordained.
CRUSHING AND SEPARATING EVIL DOERS FROM THE GOOD PEOPLE IS GOD’S ORDAINED DUTY AND WILL FOR CIVIL AUTHORITIES TO CARRY OUT.
“A wise king scattereth the wicked, and bringeth the wheel over them.” Proverbs 20:26
A king or civil servant, ruler will destroy the wicked, he will truck them, he will crush them! Read the above verse again.
“The phrase ‘bringeth the wheel over them’ comes from Proverbs 20:26. It refers to the act of a wise king punishing or dealing with the wicked, particularly through the process of threshing (separating the good from the bad). The ‘wheel’ imagery suggests a thorough and often harsh application of this punishment.”
“Proverbs 20:26: Bringeth the wheel over them – He threshes them in his anger, as the wheel does the grain on the threshing-floor. Every one knows that grain was separated from its husks, in Palestine, by the feet of the oxen trampling among the sheaves, or bringing a rough-shod wheel over them. Asiatic kings often threshed their people, to bring out their property; but this is not what is intended here.” Adam Clarke
God ordained civil authorities to punish EVIL DOERS and not the good people! Any civil authority, whether an individual or the whole governmental system that punishes the good people, that weaponizes the system to destroy lawful, law abiding citizens, should be replaced. The framers of our Constitution actually set that in place.
God bless our Constitutionally abiding law enforcement which God ordains in order to punish evil doers. “Submit yourselves to every ordinance of man for the Lord’s sake: whether it be to the king, as supreme; 14 Or unto governors, as unto them that are sent by him FOR THE PUNISHMENT OF EVILDOERS, and for the praise of them that do well.” (1 Peter 2:13-14)
“He that justifieth the wicked, and he that condemneth the just, even they both are abomination to the LORD.” Proverbs 17:15
Read Romans 13 and notice…. Civil Rulers, including the Police, are ordained of God to punish those who do evil. They are His “ministers.” A few bad cops doesn’t change this fact. Oh, and notice how criminals all go to hell—“damnation.”
Romans 13 and 1 Peter 2:12-14 …. whenever government isn’t punishing evil doers, and instead, turns and punishes well doers, that government is the antitheses, the opposite of what God ordained civil government for and should be abolished.
Submission to the Authorities
1 Let every soul be subject unto the higher powers. For there is no power but of God: the powers that be are ordained of God. 2 Whosoever therefore resisteth the power, resisteth the ordinance of God: and they that resist shall receive to themselves damnation. 3 For rulers are not a terror to good works, but to the evil. Wilt thou then not be afraid of the power? do that which is good, and thou shalt have praise of the same: 4 For he is the minister of God to thee for good. But if thou do that which is evil, be afraid; for he beareth not the sword in vain: for he is the minister of God, a revenger to execute wrath upon him that doeth evil. 5 Wherefore ye must needs be subject, not only for wrath, but also for conscience sake. 6 For for this cause pay ye tribute also: for they are God’s ministers, attending continually upon this very thing. 7 Render therefore to all their dues: tribute to whom tribute is due; custom to whom custom; fear to whom fear; honour to whom honour. Fulfilling the Law Through Love 8 Owe no man any thing, but to love one another: for he that loveth another hath fulfilled the law. 9 For this, Thou shalt not commit adultery, Thou shalt not kill, Thou shalt not steal, Thou shalt not bear false witness, Thou shalt not covet; and if there be any other commandment, it is briefly comprehended in this saying, namely, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. 10 Love worketh no ill to his neighbour: therefore love is the fulfilling of the law. 11 And that, knowing the time, that now it is high time to awake out of sleep: for now is our salvation nearer than when we believed. 12 The night is far spent, the day is at hand: let us therefore cast off the works of darkness, and let us put on the armour of light. 13 Let us walk honestly, as in the day; not in rioting and drunkenness, not in chambering and wantonness, not in strife and envying. 14 But put ye on the Lord Jesus Christ, and make not provision for the flesh, to fulfil the lusts thereof.” Romans 13
Truth: This priesthood of fake pastors bowed to Satan long ago. They are antichrists who bought into and even defend Satan’s fake “bibles” and teach heresies such as eternal security, etc.
Submission to civil authority has its limits and is contingent upon those authorities who are punishing evil doers and not having become the evil doers who then turn and punish the righteous.
Submission to Authority
“Submit yourselves to every ordinance of man for the Lord’s sake: whether it be to the king, as supreme; 14 Or unto governors, as unto them that are sent by him for the punishment of evildoers, and for the praise of them that do well.” 1 Peter 2:13-14
Jesus died. He shed His precious blood to redeem His people “out of every kindred, and tongue, and people, and nation;”
“And they sung a new song, saying, Thou art worthy to take the book, and to open the seals thereof: for thou wast slain, and hast redeemed us to God by thy blood out of every kindred, and tongue, and people, and nation;” Revelation 5:9
“He hath shewed thee, O man, what is good; and what doth the LORD require of thee, but to do justly, and to love mercy, and to walk humbly with thy God?” Micah 6:8
