There’s Only One Gospel of Christ! The Heresy of Pauline Gospel Exclusivity Exploded [podcast]
Some today are claiming there is more than one Gospel. Is this true or false?
An increasing number of vile, diabolical wolves are claiming that there’s more than one Gospel. They claim that Paul had a separate, a different gospel than Jesus and the other apostles and that Paul’s gospel is the only one that counts for New Testament saints. Ready to put this claim to the test?
Paul not only uses the term “my gospel”, he also uses the words “THE gospel” as in only one Gospel! In fact, in the New Testament canon, the words “THE gospel” appear 86 times while Paul’s use of the words “my gospel” appear only 3 times. Paul himself used the term “THE gospel” 59 times! I will leave it to you to do a search of the words “THE gospel” on your King James Bible software. Your jaw will drop as 86 results appear. And as you do, notice that the words “THE gospel” are used before and after Paul used this same term, further proving there’s only one Gospel – “THE gospel” of Jesus Christ.
Rom 1:1 Paul, a servant of Jesus Christ, called to be an apostle (just one of the apostles), separated unto THE GOSPEL of God (not Paul),
Rom 1:2 (Which he had promised afore by his prophets in the holy scriptures,)
Rom 1:3 Concerning his Son Jesus Christ our Lord, which was made of the seed of David according to the flesh;
Rom 1:4 And declared to be the Son of God with power, according to the spirit of holiness, by the resurrection from the dead:
So we must ask, what is “THE GOSPEL”? As we just read, THE one Gospel centers upon and is and has to do with “his Son Jesus Christ our LORD” who was crucified for the sins of the world and raised again from the dead, right? Is Paul the only one who had this revelation? No.
Jesus, “the way, the truth, and the life,” simply used Paul to merely expound upon the ONE Gospel. That doesn’t make the Gospel Paul preached a separate or different gospel. In fact, the Holy Ghost through Paul himself told us that anyone preaching “ANY other gospel” is “accursed.” (Galatians 1:6-9) More on that in a moment.
Also, Paul uses the term “our gospel” 3 times (2 Corinthians 4:3; 1 Thessalonians 1:5; 2 Thessalonians 2:14).
To say there are different gospels would be to say that there is more than one way to God. Jesus Christ is the Gospel, the Good News, and the only way to God (John 14:6). This is the work of “the spirit of antichrist” perpetrated through antichrists (1 John 2:18; 4:1-6).
Before Paul was even saved, the words “many believed” appears 4 times in the Word of God and 1 time shortly after Paul was saved (John 2:23; 8:30; 10:42; 12:42; Acts 9:42). So, were those people, those “many” who believed, believing into “another gospel” – a gospel other than that one Gospel of Christ spoken of throughout the New Testament canon?
So you read the “Left Behind” series and read and listened to Hal Lindsey’s “Late Great Planet Earth” and dispensational poison and yet didn’t read God’s Word for yourself? No wonder you are horribly misled. Repent now and get into God’s Word for yourself as God commanded! (2 Timothy 2:15; Acts 17:10-11)
At this point, any honest person would be utterly ashamed that they ever bought the lie that there’s more than one gospel. Any person saying there’s more than one gospel is preaching “another gospel” and is “accursed.” (Galatians 1:6-9)
It is delusional to believe there’s more than one Gospel of Jesus Christ. The Scriptures of the LORD simply do not teach such and clearly refute such a lie. The only reason there would need to be “another gospel” would be due to the imperfection of “the gospel” of Christ.
The one original Gospel begins with Jesus, not Paul, and Paul only continued what Jesus had started in his preaching of the one original Gospel.
There’s only one kingdom of God. There’s only one Gospel. The term “THE gospel” appears 86 times in the New Testament canon! Paul used the words “my gospel” just 3 times and that doesn’t mean he had a different or separate gospel, but rather that he had revelation of “THE gospel,” that is, the one Gospel and not “another gospel” which he himself says is of “another spirit” and peddled by those who are “accursed.” (Galatians 1:6-9) This is classic slight of hand deception being wielded over the gullible. A simple search of “the gospel” and “my gospel” blows up their sham. The score is 86 to 3. Paul himself used the term “THE gospel” 59 times!!!!! Dispensationalists will never be heard revealing the number differential here because it simply doesn’t play into the agenda they are pushing as they peddle “another gospel.” (Galatians 1:6-9) There is no other Gospel, good news, except Jesus Christ, encapsulated in His one Gospel, “THE Gospel.”
Jesus Christ is “the true God, and eternal life.”
“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.” 1 John 5:20
Notice Paul’s use of the words “ANY other gospel” – twice… which means there can’t possibly be “ANY other gospel.”
“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
The phrases “another gospel” and “any other gospel” could mean but one thing – that there is only one Gospel.
What’s Satan’s Goal in this “More than One Gospel” Heresy?
In brief, dispensational theology is the construct of “evil men and seducers”, “ungodly men” who are “turning the grace of our God into lasciviousness, and denying the only Lord God, and our Lord Jesus Christ.” (Jude 4; 2 Timothy 3:13) All dispensationalists teach the golden calf pet doctrine of “once saved always saved” also called “eternal security.” This is done to evade the cross Jesus and His apostles preached and to promulgate the antinomian lie of the ages upon men. They falsely believe that the apostle Paul didn’t address doctrines like repentance, the crucified life, hell fire, etc. This is Satan’s plan to hide the hard truths of Christ’s one Gospel, all of which Paul preached.
Were there Born Again New Testament Saints BEFORE Paul Came Along? YES.
Firstly, at the onset of the record of the Acts of the Apostles, on record in the book of Acts, let us consider that Christ had already shed His precious blood and declared “It is finished.” (John 19:30) “It is finished” simply means “Paid in full.” So, the perfect price for redeeming fallen men was already, a while before Paul was even saved and so, this alone tells us that He who is “not willing that any should perish” was immediately saving souls into His eternal kingdom (1 Timothy 2:4-6; 2 Peter 3:9, etc.).
There’s mountains of evidence that there were well over 8,000 new converts to Christ BEFORE Paul was even saved (Acts 2:41; 4:4). This alone disproves the lie that no one could be saved before Paul came along. Also, this further exposes the deification of Jesus’ servant Paul by dispensational heretics.
The book of Acts is written in chronological order and Paul wasn’t even saved will Acts 9. We witness the birth of the church in the first 2 chapters of Acts.
Jesus tells His 120 gathered together praying that they were going to be baptized with the Holy Ghost. How could anyone believe that Jesus was going to send His Spirit upon lost souls? Ludicrous.
“But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judaea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth.” Acts 1:8
And Jesus kept His promise:
“And they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance.” Acts 2:4
Read this to witness how it is further established that many were saved by Christ before Paul was even saved:
“Now when they heard this, they were pricked in their heart, and said unto Peter and to the rest of the apostles, Men and brethren, what shall we do? 38 Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost. 39 For the promise is unto you, and to your children, and to all that are afar off, even as many as the Lord our God shall call. 40 And with many other words did he testify and exhort, saying, Save yourselves from this untoward generation. 41 Then they that gladly received his word were baptized: and the same day there were added unto them about three thousand souls.” Acts 2:37-41
Under the empowerment of the Holy Spirit, Peter also preached for men to “repent” and “be converted” and so it was obviously possible and happening well before Paul was ever saved.
“Repent ye therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out, when the times of refreshing shall come from the presence of the Lord;” Acts 3:19
Dispensationalist Nightmare
The dispensationalist vainly believes he’s not accountable to the teachings of Christ, the One the dispensationalist claims has saved him. Odd at best. The dispensationalist has bought the egregious lie that only Paul’s writings are essential to New Testament saints. Little do these deceived souls realize that Paul preached exactly what Christ preached – the cardinal doctrines of the one Gospel of Jesus Christ:
- hell/damnation (Romans 1:32; 3:8; 6:23; 13:2; 1 Corinthians 11:29; 2 Corinthians 5:11; Galatians 5:19-21; 2 Thessalonians 2:12; 1 Timothy 5:12, etc.)
- the crucified life (Romans 6; 2 Corinthians 1:9; 3:5; 4:5, 10-12; Galatians 2:20; 5:24; Colossians 3:3, etc.)
- the essential of personal holiness (2 Corinthians 6:14-7:1; Galatians 5:19-21; Ephesians 5:25-27; 1 Thessalonians 4:1-7, etc.)
- the conditions essential to being taken when Christ returns (Ephesians 5:25-27
- repentance (Acts 17:30; 20:21; 26:20; 2 Corinthians 7:8-10; 12:21, etc.)
- judgment (Acts 17:31; 24:25; Romans 1:32; 2:2, 3, 5; 5:16, 18; 14:10; 1 Corinthians 1:10; 4:3; 2 Corinthians 5:10; Galatians 5:10; 2 Thessalonians 1:5; 1 Timothy 5:24)
That which sounds logical is not necessarily biblical. It may sound logical to be told that you can’t understand the bible without learning the different dispensations, but such is never said by god in his word. and, we know he gave us “All things that pertain unto life and godliness” – all things we needed, in His word (2 Peter 1:3-4).
The dispensational system is a doctrine of devils crafted and peddled by deceivers in an attempt to hide the cardinal doctrines, the hard truths of the one Gospel of Jesus Christ in order to promulgate Satan’s eternal security heresy (Genesis 2:17; 3:4). Of all the human writers of the New Testament canon, clearly Paul taught the most on faith and grace and so the dispensationalist can easily hide in things Paul taught while ignoring the hard truths he taught. They aren’t very deep or bright and we know this because Paul taught these same hard truths!
The central passage defining “THE GOSPEL” the only Gospel, is 1 Corinthians 15:1-4:
1Co 15:1 Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you THE GOSPEL which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand;
1Co 15:2 By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain.
1Co 15:3 For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures;
1Co 15:4 And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:
Clearly, to say there is “another gospel” is to say that there’s another way to God – a way other than Jesus Christ.
But Jesus says He alone is exclusively “THE way” and that is exactly what “THE gospel” communicates in no uncertain terms (John 14:6; Acts 4:12; 1 Timothy 2:5).
So, did the Gospel writers, and the apostles John and Peter preach “another gospel”? Did they preach something different than Paul’s gospel? If so they are “accursed” according to Paul and so why would the LORD have sovereignly ordained that their writings were included in the New Testament canon of Holy Scripture? (Galatians 1:6-9) And we know this isn’t true because the Holy Spirit told us through Christ’s apostle Peter that we have the canon of Scripture because “holy men (plural) of God spake as they were moved by the Holy Ghost.” (2 Peter 1:21)
Demonic dispensationalists claim that there’s more than one gospel. They falsely teach that the the Gospel of Jesus is different than the gospel of Paul and a different Gospel than Peter and John and the other Holy Spirit inspired writers of the New Testament canon. They falsely extrapolate this from Paul’s use of the term “my gospel.” (Romans 2:16; 16:25; 2 Timothy 2:8)
Let’s put this to the biblical test, shall we?
Paul not only uses the term “my gospel”, he also uses the words “THE gospel” as in only one Gospel! In fact, in the New Testament canon, the words “THE gospel” appear 86 times while Paul’s use of the words “my gospel” appear only 3 times. Paul himself used the term “THE gospel” 59 times! I will leave it to you to do a search of the words “THE gospel” on your King James Bible software. Your jaw will drop as 86 results appear. And as you do, notice that the words “THE gospel” are used before and after Paul used this same term, further proving there’s only one Gospel – “THE gospel” of Jesus Christ – which is not exclusive to Paul dispensation of it which simply refers to his stewardship of the calling God gave him to dispense the one and eternal Gospel of Jesus Christ who is the Gospel.
“Even as it is meet for me to think this of you all, because I have you in my heart; inasmuch as both in my bonds, and in the defence and confirmation of the gospel, ye all are partakers of my grace.” Philippians 1:7
“My grace” simply refers to the blessing of God’s grace bestowed upon Paul in his ministry to those saints he was writing to. In another place, as Paul spoke of his labor in the LORD, he speaks of “the grace of God which was with me.” (1 Corinthians 15:10)
“But by the grace of God I am what I am: and his grace which was bestowed upon me was not in vain; but I laboured more abundantly than they all: yet not I, but the grace of God which was with me.” 1 Corinthians 15:10
Paul’s use of the words “my grace” does not mean that it was exclusive to him. Scripture tells us that “GRACE and truth came by Jesus Christ” and is available “to ALL men.” (John 1:17; Titus 2:11)
“Grace and truth came by Jesus Christ.” John 1:17
Inspired by the Holy Spirit, Paul himself penned these words:
“For the grace of God that bringeth salvation hath appeared to ALL men (not just Paul).” Titus 2:11
The apostle Paul’s use of this term “my grace” doesn’t mean it’s exclusively for or of Paul, a mere man, a messenger. In the same way, his use of the term “my gospel” merely means that he is preaching THE one Gospel of Christ according to the divine calling and grace given to him to do so. He was given grace to preach the one Gospel – of Jesus Christ. 59 times he called it “THE gospel.”
Now do we begin to see how this evil system that falsely claims there’s more than one gospel deifies Paul and demotes Jesus Christ?
The Dispensation Deception of the Dispensationalist Heretics
Now let’s read the 4 Bible verses where Paul uses the word “dispensation.” The Greek word for “dispensation” is oikonomia and refers to an overseer, a fiscal agent who has been given an administration, a stewardship of the one Gospel. Dispensation simply means to dispense.
1Co_9:17 For if I do this thing willingly, I have a reward: but if against my will, a DISPENSATION of the gospel is committed unto me.
Eph_1:10 That in the DISPENSATION of the fulness of times he might gather together in one all things in Christ, both which are in heaven, and which are on earth; even in him:
Eph_3:2 If ye have heard of the DISPENSATION of the grace of God which is given me to you-ward:
Col_1:25 Whereof I am made a minister, according to the DISPENSATION of God which is given to me for you, to fulfil the word of God;
It is befuddling to realize that the whole dispensationalist movement is built on the foundation of Paul’s use of the word “dispensation” which they completely misinterpret and add volumes to.
Christ’s Gospel or Paul’s Gospel?
“Paul, a servant of Jesus Christ, called to be an apostle, separated unto the gospel of God,” Romans 1:1
Paul says here that as “an apostle”, he was “separated unto the gospel of God,” and not his own gospel. False teachers are saying the “gospel of God” and the “gospel of Christ” are two different gospels. One particular fraud, Trey Searcy of Truth Time Radio, used Romans 1:1 in a vain attempt to “prove” this. Let’s look. Here was my reply:
“gospel or God” and “gospel of Christ” are the same gospel – “Paul, a servant of Jesus Christ, called to be an apostle, separated unto the GOSPEL OF GOD” Romans 1:1…. then in Romans 1:16 “For I am not ashamed of the GOSPEL OF CHRIST: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.” Notice that Paul was not ashamed of “THE gospel of Christ.” Hello. Paul didn’t preach his own gospel. Right here he makes it clear that he preached and was not ashamed of “the gospel of Christ.” Case closed. In Romans 1:16 Paul states that “the gospel of Christ”, not the gospel of Paul, “is the power of God unto salvation.”
According to Romans 1, the “gospel of God” and “gospel of Christ” are one and the same Gospel because “God so loved the world…. “ (John 3:16) …. “the (one and only) GOSPEL OF CHRIST” is “to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.” (Romans 1:1, 16)
Repentance
Here’s more proof that Satan is the author of this whole dispensational system. Jesus says “Except ye repent, ye shall ALL like wise perish.” (Luke 13:3, 5) Paul taught repentance (Acts 20:21; 2 Corinthians 7:9-10). “Repentance” is found 13 times in respect to Paul (Acts thru Hebrews). Repentance is a Gospel essential and so it’s clear that Satan is behind this removal of the need to repent in order to be saved. “Seducing spirits and doctrines of devils” are exactly what this demonic dispensational system is all about (1 Timothy 4:1-2). The men who have concocted this system aren’t very bright or should we say, they are depending on they ignorance of their prey. They are hoping you don’t find out that Paul preached what his Master Christ preached. And that’s why these antichrists dismiss the teachings of Jesus Christ Himself, claiming that His words, Christ’s teachings are not important or essential to those New Testament believers who are saved by this very and only Savior whose teachings they are dismissing. Think on that one.
These dispensational devils are simply regurgitating recycle heresy when they teach that the Gospel Jesus, John the Baptist, and Peter preached a different gospel than Paul preached. The underlying motive is to rid the message of the hard truths. Jesus, John the Baptist, and Paul use verses on repentance like Matthew 3:2; 4:17; Luke 13:3, 5; Acts 17:30-31; 2 Corinthians 7:10; 2 Peter 3:9.
“The antichrists (many) will follow the false prophet which that demonic spirit has clothed themselves as angels of light and has been building the false church and filling it with all kinds of doctrine that falls short of and goes beyond the doctrine of our Lord and savior Jesus Christ as plainly revealed in the New Testament canon of Scripture.” David Taylor
Trey Searcy, Robert Breaker, and all the dispensational wolves are essentially teaching that even though Jesus had already died and rose again, no one could be saved until Paul’s epistles appeared decades later. Paul’s epistles date to beginning in about 60AD. Yet we know by the record of the book of Acts, beginning before Paul was even saved, that 8,000 souls were saved by the LORD via Peter’s preaching at Pentecost, the day the church was born. It was later that Paul was saved (Acts 9).
Was Paul the only messenger (apostle) that the LORD used to reveal His one Gospel? If so, why do we have books in the New Testament canon of other of Christ’s apostles? Why didn’t God not only include Paul’s books in the New Testament canon? Surely those other human writers of New Testament Scripture were also teaching according to Christ’s one Gospel, right? Right. Such is self-evident. Let’s explore the Bible concerning the claims that Paul’s gospel is the only gospel.
A closer look at the whole of Scripture reveals that the one, the exclusive Gospel of Jesus Christ, the Good News, is Christ Himself, and that He used several of His messengers to reveal it to us, not just Paul.
“holy men (plural) of God spake as they were moved by the Holy Ghost.” (2 Peter 1:21)
The word “gospel” appears 104 times in the New Testament canon. 28 times the word “gospel” appears outside of Paul’s writings. So, in the 4 Gospels, the word “gospel” is used 17 times. 17 times the word “gospel” appears in the 4 Gospels, specifically associated with the Son of God. This is years before Paul was even saved. Did JESUS have the real “gospel” or did the Almighty Himself have to wait till Paul penned it? Did Jesus bring the Gospel or Paul? Did Jesus die for the sins of the world or did the sinner Paul do so? Did the New Testament church begin at the Day of Pentecost when 3,000 souls were saved under Peter’s preaching or is this a lie and only Paul later brought the true Gospel?
This “more than one gospel” delusion is a laughable heresy being peddled that deifies Paul and demotes Jesus Christ and says that only Paul had the Gospel that applies to New Testament saints and that the “the gospel of Jesus Christ” was “another gospel” for another people (2 Corinthians 11:4; Galatians 1:6-9). Anyone teaching this is a false teacher. Run! The Pauline cult.
“The beginning of THE gospel of Jesus Christ, the Son of God;” Mark 1:1
“Gospel” means good news and is directly coupled with “Jesus Christ, the Son of God.” Paul is not the good news, Jesus Christ is. Jesus Christ chose and appointed the apostle Paul to preach HIS (Jesus’) one Gospel and yet Paul is but a mere man as were the other apostles. Jesus Christ is God.
“…the appearing of our Lord Jesus Christ: 15 Which in his times he shall shew, who is the blessed and only Potentate, the King of kings, and Lord of lords; 16 Who only hath immortality, dwelling in the light which no man can approach unto; whom no man hath seen, nor can see: to whom be honour and power everlasting. Amen.” 1 Timothy 6:14-16
No different than when John wrote that he was “the disciple whom Jesus loved”, so Paul used the words “my gospel” which dispensationalists erroneously take to mean Paul had his own gospel, a different Gospel. Beware. Was John the only “disciple whom Jesus loved”? Was Paul the only messenger of the one true “gospel of Jesus Christ”? No. The use of the words “THE gospel” before and after Paul in the New Testament canon make this abundantly clear. One singular Gospel preached by John the Baptist, Jesus, and His holy apostles. And Jesus Himself is that Gospel! Paul was but one of the messengers Jesus Christ sent to communicate His one Gospel, which reveals HIMSELF. In fact, Paul wrote “For we preach not ourselves, but Christ Jesus the Lord; and ourselves your servants for Jesus’ sake.” (2 Corinthians 4:5)
Paul simply revealed much more of the gospel of Jesus. He was commissioned with a dispensational stewardship to unfold the Gospel of Jesus Christ which began to be preached in the 4 Gospel books. Dispensational simply means to dispense and yet the dispensational wolves have defined it as much more with no biblical authority to do so. That does not mean it was a different Gospel which brings a curse as “another gospel.” (Galatians 1:6-9) That’s why it’s dangerous language to say Paul had a different gospel or that there’s more than one Gospel. Scripture clearly refutes this antichrist heretical idea which is designed to confuse and distract from Christ – the only “Head” of His one body (Colossians 1:18-19; 2:18-19).
Paul himself says that if any person or angel preaches “ANY other gospel” he is “accursed.” (Galatians 1:6-9) Christ’s Gospel as is documented in “ALL scripture” and not just the writings of Paul (2 Timothy 3:16; Galatians 1:6-9). The only other gospels we read about in God’s Word would be a false gospel, “another gospel” and “ANY other gospel” and the acceptance or preaching of such makes one “accursed.” (2 Corinthians 11:4; Galatians 1:6, 8-9)
Paul had a specific part in dispensing the revelation of the one original Gospel of Jesus Christ as did Peter and John and the other divinely ordained scribes of the New Testament Scriptures (Matthew 13:52).
Paul had a further revelation of THE one Gospel, that’s all. But people are being gullible and heretical to say there’s more than one Gospel.
Just because God used Paul to unfold, to reveal that Gospel, doesn’t make it Paul’s Gospel which cancels out any and all other references or men HE used to dispense or reveal His one Gospel. That’s heresy and an interpretational error and this type twisting of the truth is the type thing done by cults.
If God ordained that the word “gospel” appear many times outside of Paul’s writings, especially in the singular, definite article form of “THE gospel,” did He not ordain that we understand that He gave us just one Gospel? Yes.
Peter, Christ’s apostle, uses the word “gospel” 4 times in 1 Peter, without the name of Paul. So, did Peter have and preach “another gospel” which would make him “accursed”? (Galatians 1:6-9) Yes or no?
“The Gospel of God” appears 7 times in the New Testament and was used both by Paul and Peter, neither one hinting or attributing it to themselves – but as it reads – “the gospel of GOD”, not man.
It’s interesting to note that the phrase “the gospel of Paul” appears no where in the Bible.
Notice this:
“Which in other ages was not made known unto the sons of men, as it is now revealed unto his holy apostleS (plural!) and prophets by the Spirit;” Ephesians 3:5
Did Paul state that he was the only one the one Gospel was revealed to? No. Instead Paul tells us that “it is now revealed unto his holy apostleS (plural!) and prophets (plural) by the Spirit;” Case closed.
The one Gospel was now “revealed unto his holy apostleS and prophets (plural) by the Spirit” and not just Paul (Ephesians 3:5).
Paul is saying that “now” under the New Covenant, the fulness of the one Gospel of Christ is revealed.
He speaks of “other ages” which refers to the past ages and times and puts the emphasis on the timing of GOD, not Paul’s revelation which were from GOD. Yet the divine revelations were certainly not only given to Paul. They were given to “his holy apostles and prophets by the Spirit” of which Paul is but one of them.
Listening to the disdaining tone of those who peddle this heresy that Paul is the only one who had the gospel, is disturbing and revealing. They are cult teachers, blaming anything you’ve ever learned as being of “religion.” This is classis cultic action to discredit the truth in order to bring in the lie. Sophomoric at best. This technique is often used by deceivers. While they themselves corrupt the Word of God, they arrogantly act is if they have exclusive rights and the sole ability to “rightly divide (ing) the word of truth.” (2 Timothy 2:15)
“Ye have taken away the key of knowledge” (Luke 11:52)
Saints, there is no end to the insidious wolves working right in our midst today who each have their own special angle to sell you on. They won’t tell you just to get into God’s Word organically and seek His face relentlessly. Why? Well, they want to control the interpretation of the Bible with their “private interpretation” and they want you as a customer and a return customer (2 Peter 1:19-21). This is how indoctrination occurs. So many today are vying for your attention to their ministry, their teaching, seeking to convince, to sell you on the notion that THEY have the exclusive inside scoop, the keys to understanding the Bible. This includes those who claim the Bible can’t be understood without knowing the original languages, the lie that you can’t understand the New Testament without knowing all the Hebrew roots, and those who chop up and interpret the Bible via dispensations, etc. Whether subtly or blatantly, each claims to have the exclusive keys to understanding the Bible.
Jesus warned:
“Woe unto you, lawyers! for ye have taken away the key of knowledge: ye entered not in yourselves, and them that were entering in ye hindered.” Luke 11:52
Principally, taking away “the key of knowledge” deals with stealing center stage, cornering the market on interpretation, displacing God from teaching His children (1 John 2:20, 27).
The Greek word for “key” in Luke 11:52 (above):
κλείς
kleis
klice
From G2808; a key (as shutting a lock), literally or figuratively: – key.
This rebuke and expose’ of Jesus concerning lawyers refers to those in leadership who serve the god of self and therefore block the knowledge of God from and misdirect, mislead the people under their influence.
Of this verse John Wesley wrote:
“Ye have taken away the key of knowledge – Ye have obscured and destroyed the knowledge of the Messiah, which is the key of both the present and the future kingdom of heaven; the kingdom of grace and glory. Ye have not entered in – Into the present kingdom of heaven.”
Adam Clarke writes:
“Ye have taken away the key of knowledge – By your traditions ye have taken away the true method of interpreting the prophecies: ye have given a wrong meaning to those scriptures which speak of the kingdom of the Messiah, and the people are thereby hindered from entering into it. See on Matthew 23:13 (note).
Ye shut up the kingdom – As a key by opening a lock gives entrance into a house, etc., so knowledge of the sacred testimonies, manifested in expounding them to the people, may be said to open the way into the kingdom of heaven. But where men who are termed teachers are destitute of this knowledge themselves, they may be said to shut this kingdom; because they occupy the place of those who should teach, and thus prevent the people from acquiring heavenly knowledge.
The kingdom of heaven here means the Gospel of Christ; the Pharisees would not receive it themselves, and hindered the common people as far as they could.”
Speaking of not being right there in the Bible, where does the BIBLE instruct New Testament believers to discern, to view the Bible via dispensations? Nowhere. And to assert such is to deceptively add to the Bible, the Word of God and be under the curse of Revelation 22:18-19.
Demonic dispensationalists refuse to synthesize the whole of Scripture and therefore claim there is more than one gospel and that New Testament saints are only responsible for obeying Paul’s writings – Romans through Philemon. This they do in the face of a holy God who guarantees the lake of fire to all who remove from His Word (Revelation 22:18-19). They ditch half the New Testament canon to reduce saving faith to something that doesn’t require true repentance, something much less deep than what Jesus and disciples define it as – true, necessary repentance which always, without exception, produces a holy, obedience life (Luke 13:3, 5; Matthew 3:7-10, etc.). You see, repentance was and is the first word, the first command of the original Gospel, done by faith, and that which ushers in the necessary divine regeneration (Acts 20:21).
Jesus says “Ye MUST be born again” and “born again” is synonymous with what Paul calls “the washing of regeneration.” (John 3:3, 7; Titus 3:5-7)
Recently while talking to a lady who has been ensnared in this dispensation cult, I said this:
Why do you think those wolves taught you that only some or none of the book of Hebrews applies to New Testament saints? Hebrews addresses all of the “holy brethren” 3:1 and so if you’re saved, the whole book of Hebrews applies to you and the witness of the same truths throughout the book of Hebrews is all over the rest of the New Testament. In this alone they are caught red handed. As to the reason these dispensationalist frauds are teaching that Hebrews doesn’t apply, let me help you: They taught you this lie – the lie that Hebrews doesn’t apply to you – because they know Hebrews repeatedly dismantles and obliterates their primary pet heresy – once saved always saved, eternal security. You are being deceived and have a deceiving spirit over your life and it will remain until God opens your eyes and you repent and return to Him (Hosea 14:1-2; 2 Corinthians 3:14-16; 1 Timothy 4:1-2).
The Greater Danger
Those who bought this Pauline gospel heresy did not learn these things from reading Scripture for themselves – they learned this heresy by listening to mere sinful men, wolves who imposed this system on the Scriptures and led them to believe this lie by isolating a few certain phrases, words, and verses to the exclusion of the whole counsel of Scripture. Cultist like this usually hyper-interpret certain verses, words, phrases while ignoring the whole of what Scripture communicates.
HOW do you know if someone is imposing something upon the Scripture text they are reading from IF you haven’t personally, organically, thoroughly studied the whole of God’s Word for yourself? You don’t.
That’s why it’s essential to personally study the Bible organically and not be influenced by mere men. Many have been misled. They DID NOT go into the Bible and read it all by themselves with the Holy Ghost and come out with these ideas. It took some crafty deceiver or deceivers to convince you of this heretical view and much more.
Are you a dispensationalist? Yes or no?
Do you realize that the Bible never says to read it or view the kingdom of Christ via dispensations? There is no Scripture which gives such a hint or instruction. This is the work of devils and sinful men (1 Timothy 4:1-2)
Beware of “Strange Doctrines”
We were warned about “strange doctrines” and that is what this heresy that Paul alone had the gospel is – “Be not carried about with divers and strange doctrines. For it is a good thing that the heart be established with grace; not with meats, which have not profited them that have been occupied therein.” (Hebrews 13:9)
The larger error and concern here is that those who’ve been taught this heresy are inevitably gullible and easily misled and will be further snared and deceived by the vile wolves who taught them this error.
These ravenous wolves are teaching that Paul is the only one who had and gave the one true Gospel of Christ. Total heresy.
Long before Paul penned his epistles, the apostles of Christ, without Paul, ascertained what was necessary under the New Testament Gospel. See Acts 15. So, did they have the one true Gospel? To say they didn’t is utterly dishonest and false. To say John, Peter, James, and the other apostles of Christ and writers of the New Testament Scripture didn’t have the one true Gospel is to curse the whole life and ministry of Christ Himself. To say such is to say that the Gospel wasn’t available to men before 60AD. That would mean Jesus’ perfect blood sacrifice was blocked and ineffectual, not available to redeem men for approximately 30 years after He died to save all men.
Is Paul the only One Christ trusted with His one Gospel? No!
If only Paul had the only Gospel that applies to New Testament saints, why do we have books from others in the New Testament canon? Did the Almighty make a mistake? Did He give us things we didn’t need in His Word?
Of the 27 books of the New Testament canon, Paul wrote 13 (or 14 if you count Hebrews). Peter wrote 2 and John wrote 4 of the canon books. Why did God give us New Testament authors other than Paul if Paul had the only Gospel or revelation of it? Peter used the term “THE gospel” 4 times. Are you going to say the LORD is a fraud for including Peter’s version of the ONE Gospel in the New Testament canon? Someone is lying and it’s not the LORD.
“The Everlasting Gospel”
Notice below how in Revelation 14:6 we read the words “the everlasting gospel” and not “Paul’s gospel.”
“And I saw another angel fly in the midst of heaven, having THE EVERLASTING GOSPEL to preach unto them that dwell on the earth, and to every nation, and kindred, and tongue, and people,” Revelation 14:6
Paul merely used the phrase “my gospel” as referring to the revelation Jesus gave him of the one true Gospel. And that one true Gospel was not limited to Paul. Jesus wasn’t limited and clearly didn’t limit His divine revelation to one messenger. Otherwise, we wouldn’t have other of Christ’s apostles expounding upon the one Gospel of Christ.
There’s only 1 Gospel. Just because God gave Paul an apportioned revelation of the LORD’s one Gospel, doesn’t mean it was exclusively Paul’s Gospel, or was only revealed by Paul, or that it’s another Gospel. Cease the heresy now.
Echoing this same heavenly warning and truth as did Paul in Galatians 1, the apostle John wrote that if anyone who is saved doesn’t continue in “the doctrine of Christ“, such a person no longer has God but rather is now an apostate, a departed lost soul.
“Whosoever transgresseth, and abideth not in the doctrine of Christ, hath not God. He that abideth (remains) in the doctrine of Christ, he hath both the Father and the Son.” 2 John 9
Notice that the apostle John here doesn’t tell us that Paul exclusively authored “the doctrine of Christ.” So, did God forget to tell us something we needed to know? Not a chance. If Paul’s writings were the only ones written directly to us, then why are we never told such in Scripture?
It’s Christ’s Gospel, not exclusively the Gospel Jesus gave to Paul which He also gave to all of His apostles – and that’s why it’s called “the apostle’s doctrine” in Acts 2:42 and not “Paul’s gospel.”
The term “THE gospel” appears 4 times in 1 Peter 1, penned by the apostle Peter. And, Paul isn’t mentioned once in these instances as associated with the Gospel.
1Peter 1:12 Unto whom it was revealed, that not unto themselves, but unto us they did minister the things, which are now reported unto you by them that have preached THE GOSPEL unto you with the Holy Ghost sent down from heaven; which things the angels desire to look into.
1Peter 1:25 But the word of the Lord endureth for ever. And this is the word which by THE GOSPEL is preached unto you.
1Peter 4:6 For for this cause was THE GOSPEL preached also to them that are dead, that they might be judged according to men in the flesh, but live according to God in the spirit.
1Peter 4:17 For the time is come that judgment must begin at the house of God: and if it first begin at us, what shall the end be of them that obey not THE GOSPEL of God?
The one “Gospel of God” is not exclusive to Paul, it’s for all….. and “is now revealed unto his holy apostles and prophets by the Spirit;” (Ephesians 3:5) The Bible never says the New Testament Gospel was exclusively revealed to and through Paul. Paul didn’t even believe that. He himself says that the Gospel is “now revealed unto his holy apostles and prophets by the Spirit.” (Ephesians 3:5)
Dispensationalists are claiming that Paul’s revelation, as is recorded in the Bible, is MORE divinely inspired than that of the other 39 writers. But Paul himself didn’t believe that (2 Timothy 3:16).
“For if I do this thing willingly, I have a reward: but if against my will, a dispensation of the gospel is committed unto me.” 1 Corinthians 9:17
G3622
οἰκονομία
oikonomia
oy-kon-om-ee’-ah
From G3623; administration (of a household or estate); specifically a (religious) “economy”: – dispensation, stewardship.
Total KJV occurrences: 8
So, “a dispensation of the gospel” simply means that Paul was given the divine responsibility, the stewardship of administering, dispensing the Gospel to the Gentiles. That doesn’t exclude the other apostles Jesus used to make known His Gospel.
Baptism
As usual, these cultists butcher the doctrine of baptisms. In a vain attempt to prove that Paul’s is a separate gospel, dispensational wolf Trey Searcy says: “But Paul says there is now only “one baptism.” (Ephesians 4:5) But in Hebrews 6 the writer chides believers for not knowing the foundational “the doctrine of baptisms.” Notice, “baptismS” is plural. Elsewhere, in 1 Corinthians 12:13, Paul speaks of being baptized or immersed into Christ and therefore His body by the Holy Spirit upon being born again and that’s what “one baptism” is referring to in Ephesians 4:5.
“For as the body is one, and hath many members, and all the members of that one body, being many, are one body: so also is Christ. 13 For by one Spirit are we all baptized into one body, whether we be Jews or Gentiles, whether we be bond or free; and have been all made to drink into one Spirit.” 1 Corinthians 12:12-13
“There is one body, and one Spirit, even as ye are called in one hope of your calling;
Eph 4:5 One Lord, one faith, one baptism,
Eph 4:6 One God and Father of all, who is above all, and through all, and in you all.” Ephesians 4:4-6
All cults indoctrinate their prey using a few Bible verses to the exclusion of the whole of Scripture. All other Scripture is ignored or slanted and bent by those who handle the Word of God deceitfully (2 Corinthians 4:1-2). This is exactly what we see the dispensational devils doing.

“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.

Apostasy
Biblical Case Against Seminary [podcast]

SATAN’S SEMINARIANS [podcast]
Satanic Seminarian System
People have to be first indoctrinated in order to go forth and indoctrinate others, their prey. This is the purpose of seminarians.
What could possibly sound more innocent than a man wanting to serve God going to seminary, right?
BEWARE OF THE SEMINARIANS WHO ARE THE SCRIBES AND PHARISEES OF OUR DAY! Satan loves to use that which sounds noble and spiritual and yet is not biblical. There are no seminaries in the New Testament! And it’s not biblical for a good reason. God’s Divine wisdom. To protect His body. Let’s stay with the Word saints!
SOME of the most pitiful deceivers I’ve ever conversed with have had a so-called “higher education.” In reality, there’s no such thing as a “higher education” outside of learning directly from the Most High Himself, out of the never-changing, crowning jewel literary work in His universe, the Holy Bible (2 Timothy 3:16-17).
HAVE you noticed the lightweight seminarians who peddle their half-truth false gospel, OSAS, calvinism, etc and how they market their community to build their church busine$$?
We should note that in general Christ warned us to “beware of men.” (Matthew 10:17) Jesus told us to beware of specific classes of sinful men. In doing so perhaps to some degree the Son of God was stereotyping. Here Jesus warns us to beware of the religious leaders (seminarians) and civil rulers and perhaps because they could do the most damage: “And he charged them, saying, Take heed, beware of the leaven of the Pharisees, and of the leaven of Herod.” (Mark 8:15)
The moment Jesus saved us, He inducted us into the school of the Holy Ghost and Word of God! THAT’S how God prepares His people for ministry! Seminary is a cheap substitute, waste of time and money (Psalms 119:105; Acts 1:8; 2 Timothy 2:15, etc.). Christ sends men to the cross and Pentecost (Holy Spirit baptism) and never to the seminaries of mere sinful men.
Who needs a seminary to learn God’s Word? – only a lazy man who refuses to lay down his life in this fleeting world and study to learn God’s Word intimately. Such a man is “not valiant for the truth” and so will be turned over to “strong delusion.” (Jeremiah 9:3; 2 Thessalonians 2:9-12)
“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
Personally, I waste no time on early church fathers or church history. They weren’t ordained, sanctioned by God exclusively to pen the words of Holy Writ, the Bible, which is God’s Word and the highest divine authority (2 Peter 1:19-21; 2 Timothy 2:15; 3:16-17). What’s it matter if you know what they said? The LORD didn’t ordain them to communicate His truth to the world. This does nothing but create confusion (1 Corinthians 14:33). Many would rather listen to what mere men had to say about God and the Bible than to search, study, and learn for themselves what God said in His own Word. The LORD has always instructed His people to study and learn and attend to HIS words (Deuteronomy 4, 6, 11, Isaiah 34:16, etc.).
“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
Seminarian Repentance
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. Seminiarian Apostasy Busted and Exposed!
ONLY JESUS can call, prepare and ordain a man to His work! All other “ordinations” and certifications are a fraud! John 15:16 !!!
There were no seminarians in the New Testament except those of the hell bound pharisees.
GOD is unchanging. Jesus sent no one to seminary. Jesus sends men to the cross then Pentecost! Otherwise a man is not fit for ministry. Seminary does not qualify a man for ministry. No, in fact, seminary puts a man light years behind, having many things he must now denounce and overcome and rid his life of. Repent and denounce all your “higher learning.” Until then, you are on your own, full of foolish pride and rebellion and the LORD will not use you (James 4:6-10). Paul denounced his “higher learning” trophies to know, be known of, and used by the LORD! (Philippians 3).
“Despite God’s word commanding men not to boast in their wisdom, and despite being told that “not many wise according to the flesh” are called, today’s evangelical landscape is replete with scribes and pharisees whose default question is, ‘By what authority do you do these things?’ They put their stock in how many credit hours they have obtained at such and such a seminary. Seminary credentials never qualified a man for God’s service, nor does a lack of “formal training” nullify what God approves. Indeed, God has chosen the foolish things of this world to confound the wise (1 Corinthians 1:27) When God calls anyone to a particular task, it matters not if others approve.” Servus Christi
DOES this not sum up what ministry is? Read closely: “For Ezra had prepared his heart to seek the law of the LORD, and to do it, and to teach in Israel statutes and judgments.” (Ezra 7:10)
We must go back further than the “reformation.” Nothing needed to be RE-formed…. because we have a Bible which is the final divine authority (Mark 13:31; 2 Timothy 3:15-17; 2 Peter 1:19-21, etc.). Many of the “reformers” were absolute heretics such as the demon possessed murderous maniac, John Calvin.
YOU see, in seminaries, their premise for teaching church history and about the reformers/reformation is so that their students will be able to discuss such when the topic comes up. But wait, you see THEY, the false priesthood of seminarians are the very ones who created that premise! Called out men must know God’s Word, not church history! SATAN is at work misdirecting men from simply learning God’s Word and walking in the power of the Holy Spirit. So, he’s diverted seminarians from simply learning Scripture using a curriculum that includes pagan prayer practices (contemplative prayer/spiritual formation), church history, and marketing. Jesus never did nor ever will send anyone to a seminary! The Son of God sends men who are truly in His will to the cross and to Pentecost!
Jim Borge writes: “As a young man, I was taught to believe that the Reformation was a great thing. As an older man I have grown to believe that the Church never needed reformation, it needed regeneration.”
IF you went to seminary or Bible college, perhaps the LORD would today lead you to repent of this work of the flesh, denounce it, and announce you utter dependence upon Him! Paul denounced all of his higher education to know and serve Christ (Philippians 3).
Sadly, most seminarians learn the lies of the protestant reformers instead of learning God’s pure Word!
The idea of “reformation” is just another lie and deception. Caution: Paul Washer is a calvinist … we don’t need “reformation” … never did! We need to simply get back to the “old paths” which is the Holy Scriptures! (Jeremiah 6:16) The LORD has given us “ALL things” in His Word! (2 Peter 1:3-4) The insidious, lying idea of a “reformation” is that something needs to be re-formed or formed again! But this is another lie from Satan because God’s Word has been perfect from the beginning and has “all” that we need! Beware. The “Protestant Reformation” was full of devils who believed and taught “reformed theology” and the diabolical system of “calvinism.” Run!
Bottom line: EVERYTHING we need God gave us in His Word and it doesn’t seminary to study and learn God’s Word!
Satan’s seminarians are his invention to put the church on ice!
Thinking of going to seminary? Before you do, read this post.
“What one generation tolerates, the next generation will embrace.” John Wesley
YOU show me a church “pastored” by one of Satan’s seminarians and I will show you a cold, dead, apostate sham!
Today the embrace, connection, and fornication between seminaries and the churches is an embracing of that which was tolerated in generations past and has brought epidemic apostasy in the local churches. The Methodist church is a prime example.
John Wesley was the founder of the Methodist church which is now a dead denomination and has been for a long time. Yet, Wesley was a firebrand for Christ who traveled over 150,000 miles by horseback to spread the Gospel of Jesus Christ. He preached over 40,000 messages from God’s Word in his lifetime!
It was only when the Methodist church began requiring it’s preachers to have a seminary degree that the fire of God extinguished (Ichabod) and the Holy Spirit was quenched. Today the Methodist church is dead men’s bones due to trusting in the flesh, degrees, etc., and not desiring and depending on the divine power of the Word and Holy Spirit.
SATAN HAD A PLAN TO ICE THE FIRE OF THE HOLY SPIRIT IN THE CHURCHES AND IT WORKED – AS FAR AS THE VISIBLE BUILDING-BASED CHURCHES GO.
Simple Scheme: If Satan can ice the seminarians, he ices the people they speak to.
The seminary church system has never nor ever will work to fulfill God’s stated will for His New Testament church. It’s a satanic fraud and counterfeit that has replaced the stated will of the LORD! “Antichrist” means simply “in place of.”
The Pharisees
The hell bound hypocritical pharisees were the seminarians of Christ’s day (Matthew 23).
EVERY catholic priest is seminary trained. What does that tell you?
Calvinistic wolves posing as pastors are seminarian graduates.
What does that tell you? Jude 3-4
Today they control nearly all building based churches.
But wait, don’t men who servant lead need to know the Word? Yes, but that in no way necessitates a “higher learning” center where mere men are in control and inevitably will contaminate.
MESSAGE RECEIVED:
“It does take a little training to rightly divide the Word. Of Truth.”
REPLY:
Yes it sure does …. no seminarian needed which without fail indoctrinates it’s students with extra-biblical heresies no different than the training received by the pharisees/false leaders/seminarians of Christ’s day (Mark 7:6-9).
ORGANIC, HOME BIBLE FELLOWSHIPS IS THE WAY THE EARLY CHURCH BEGAN AND SHOULD BE FUNCTIONING TODAY (ACTS 2:42-47).
Beware of the Seminary Salesmen!
Interestingly, when one searches the internet concerning the case for or against seminary training, he may just find this to be the only piece written from a biblical perspective and against seminary training. In perusing some of the many pro-seminary articles, one will search in vain to find much, if any Scripture. These pro-seminary sales pieces were apparently written by seminarians – using little or no Scripture. One thing is for certain: Jesus and His apostles never once instructed anyone to go to a higher learning facility.
TRULY REPENTING, surrendering your whole being, reputation, and will to Christ, getting baptized with the Holy Ghost, and organically studying God’s Word is the divine equipment for ministry, not seminary!
GOD NEVER CALLED ANYONE TO GET A SEMINARY DEGREE. IF SO JESUS WOULD HAVE TOLD HIS 12 TO GO TO A “HIGHER LEARNING” INSTITUTION. NO, JESUS CALLED HIS 12 AND IS CALLING US TO DIE – TO DENY SELF, TAKE UP THE CROSS, AND FOLLOW HIM! LET’S REPENT SAINTS, THAT’S WHERE IT ALL STARTS, BEGINNING WITH A DIVINE REFRESHING IN OUR SPIRITS! (ACTS 3:19)
Paul had more “higher learning” than 10 seminarians combined and he denounced it all as “dung” (crap) to know and to learn and to teach Christ! Study Philippians 3 afresh.
Jesus led Paul to denounce all of his higher learning – read Philippians 3 afresh with this in mind … he counted it dung … when I did this – denounced my formal education – the LORD delivered me and there was an increased anointing …. only Jesus can ordain us and anoint us to do HIS work – “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!
Biblical Christian training does not involve organizations or institutions of sinful men – whose fruit reflects that of the sham false leaders of Christ’s day – who “love the praise of men more than the praise of God” (John 12:43) and set aside God’s Word to keep their own tradition (Mark 7:6-9). No institution of men needed for deep, thorough, organic, Spirit filled study of God’s Word. Jesus and His apostles never once instructed any person to go to a higher learning institution. In fact the seminarians of Christ’s day mocked the very Son of God specifically for not having a degree or the approval of sinful religious men (John 7:16-18).
“John 7:15 ‘How knoweth this man letters, having never learned?’ The Jews were amazed that Jesus had never formally trained in the Jewish law, had no degree, but had in-depth knowledge of the scriptures. But were did He get this knowledge? From His Father! Same as us!” Karen Cochran
To illustrate how indoctrinated seminarians become and why …. Have you ever noticed that when you see seminary students in coffee shops laboriously studying, you can spot them from a mile away – because they carry 3-10 commentary books of mere men around. That’s their curriculum instead of pure Scripture. Sometimes you can’t even find a Bible in the midst of their many books and when you do, it’s a lame, corrupted new per-version. SMH New Bible Versions and the Satanic Frauds who Invented them Busted and Exposed.
THERE’S A HUGE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN LEADING PEOPLE THROUGH SCRIPTURE AND INDOCTRINATING THEM IN EXTRA-BIBLICAL THEOLOGY SUCH AS THE DIABOLICAL SYSTEM OF CALVINISM/REFORMED THEOLOGY WHICH IS INTENTIONALLY DONE AT SEMINARIES.
One brother illustrates seminaries this way:
“Many colleges are just glorified roach motels…those who go in are infected and go back to infect the entire colony.” Nathan Noyes
JESUS told a seminarian of His day that he had to be “born again.” (John 3:3, 7) Obviously this man was not right with God. Nicodemus was a Pharisee and a member of the Sanhedrin mentioned in three places in the Gospel of John: He first visits Jesus one night to discuss Jesus’ teachings (John 3:1–21). Obviously Nicodemus was not a member of Christ’s family yet. This is clear, landmark proof that being religious and/or a leader in a religion or movement assures not that a person is truly a child of God. Hell is full of religious leaders, most of which are “false” according to Jesus (Matthew 7:15; 24:1,24; 1 John 4:1, etc.). The LORD never designed for His people to go to a school of “higher learning” but rather to receive the only Higher learning available – directly from the MOST HIGH Himself! Remember how the LORD told Ezekiel to simply eat His Word and then go speak those words? (Ezekiel 3)
The rebel at heart will do anything and everything except truly repent. He will mask his rebellion by spending several years and a small fortune to obtain a seminary degree, but like the hell bound false leaders of Jesus’ day, he will not repent.
“He answered and said unto them, Well hath Esaias prophesied of you hypocrites, as it is written, This people honoureth me with their lips, but their heart is far from me.” Mark 7:6
The profile of the seminarian is that he seeks the approval of sinful men and not God.
“And he said unto them, Ye are they which justify yourselves before men; but God knoweth your hearts: for that which is highly esteemed among men is abomination in the sight of God.” Luke 16:15
Sinful men always wants to insert themselves, legitimize and attempt to make prestigious their own personal certification and institutions where they reign and complicate the simplicity of divine truth and its instruction. Beware.
“Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. 6 In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths. 7 Be not wise in thine own eyes: fear the LORD, and depart from evil.” Proverbs 3:5-7
Seminary will never make up for your refusal to authentically repent and get a real life with Christ! John 15:16
Personally, upon having attended 2 Bible colleges, I realized that many of the student, even those in their 4th year, were admittedly not born again. The fruit was obviousl
THERE was no such thing as a priesthood of professional clergy in Christ’s day or in the days of early church! (as far as HIS true kingdom is concerned) In fact, it wasn’t until the antichrist roman catholic cult formed that such a priesthood was instituted and has brought untold destruction since! In short, they’ve replaced the pure worship of Christ with everything under the sun! Jesus saw this coming and prophetically warned us about this when He said “Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves.” (Matthew 7:15) Oh and “And many false prophets shall rise, and shall deceive many.”(Matthew 24:11) ….. Do you understand the import of Ezekiel 22:25-27? Here it is:
“There is a conspiracy of her prophets (false leaders) in the midst thereof, like a roaring lion ravening the prey; they have devoured souls; they have taken the treasure and precious things; they have made her many widows in the midst thereof. 26 Her priests (leaders) have violated my law (Word), and have profaned mine holy things: they have put no difference between the holy and profane, neither have they shewed difference between the unclean and the clean, and have hid their eyes from my sabbaths, and I am profaned among them. 27 Her princes in the midst thereof are like wolves ravening the prey, to shed blood, and to destroy souls, to get dishonest gain.” Ezekiel 22:25-27
The seminary system we see since the early New Testament centuries into the now is a clear manifestation and fulfillment of this prophecy given us by the LORD’s prophet Ezekiel. Exactly as Ezekiel warned, today there is a “conspiracy” among the fraternal order of seminarians who have a stronghold on the denominational franchises they run. Also as the prophet revealed “Her priests (leaders) have violated my law (Word).” (v26) The false prophet seminarians are man-fearing, man-pleasing hirelings who refuse to acknowledge, study, and preach the whole counsel of God’s Word (2 Timothy 4:1-4). Like the phony false priesthood of Christ’s day, they set aside the Word of God in order to keep the tradition and heresies they learned in seminary (Mark 7:6-9). In fact, this is a central biblical definition of false leaders and what they do – and we “know (discern) them by their fruit.” (Matthew 7:16, 20)
“He answered and said unto them, Well hath Esaias prophesied of you hypocrites, as it is written, This people honoureth me with their lips, but their heart is far from me. 7 Howbeit in vain do they worship me, teaching for doctrines the commandments of men. 8 For laying aside (rejecting) the commandment (Word) of God, ye hold the tradition of men, as the washing of pots and cups: and many other such like things ye do. 9 And he said unto them, Full well ye reject the commandment (Word) of God, that ye may keep your own tradition.” Mark 7:6-9
Satan’s Centralized System
We know from the revelation of Scripture that Satan has a well organized kingdom and uses his human agents and their systems to steal, to kill, and to destroy souls (Ezekiel 22:25-27; John 10:10; Ephesians 6:12).
Seminaries are a centralized organization of mere sinful men. SATAN is the centralizer! Think Babylon/Nimrod (Genesis 11). Think the upcoming centralized antichrist system (Revelation 13-14, 17-18). Yes, it’s God who has ordained that His assemblies of His people be autonomous and not controlled by a “headquarter” committee or centralized organization of modern pharisees who in most cases are indoctrinated into extra-biblical doctrines such as the cult of calvinism. Most pastors today are wolves who can’t even lead souls to Christ and deny the need for the baptism of the Holy Spirit (for starters). Satan always, without fail, perverts the men in control and then doles it out to those downstream (the churches). That’s why he centralizes and we are “not ignorant of his devices.” (2 Corinthians 2:11)
The Bible itself is the learning source for every saint. God’s Word is His centralized truth! (John 17:17; 2 timothy 3:16-17)
It’s real simple:
- Are you genuinely born again?
- Can you read?
- Do you have a King James Bible?
Case closed: You do not need to go to seminary. If you do, like the majority of seminarians, you may never return to the LORD to be used of Him and worse.
In the early church there were no professional clergymen as we see today in the apostate modern church world. This was Satan’s plan to denigrate and cease the power of the Holy Spirit which was poured out from Jesus on Pentecost and resulted in thousands being saved. Read Acts. At the hands of seminarian wolves, the modern church world is full of entertainment, marketing, and gimmicks and is plainly lukewarm and dead (Revelation 3:15-16). New Testament elders are not seen in the 27 book New Testament canon as those today who lord it over that which claims to be Christ’s flock. No, rather, elders in the early church were those who navigate and feed oversee (1 Peter 5:1-6). They were more like those who moderate the assemblies of God’s people in contrast with the seminary-trained, hi-jack artists we see in place today.
Seminaries are Wolf Factories! Beware!
“Many pastors have destroyed my vineyard, they have trodden my portion under foot, they have made my pleasant portion a desolate wilderness.” Jeremiah 12:10
Nancy Paul Cote writes: “Thanks again for your ministry’s articles. They so hit home and relate to my experiences of error. We were just talking about this in my new Berean Church yesterday. Both my husband and I can attest to this. Both of us were on fire for God and studied the word of God with our church ministries. We started out with an un-compromised Bible (KJB). Then, we listened to many say that to further our education with God we must go to a Bible College to get a degree to be more equipped for Ministry. Well, as we attended Bible College for 4 years I did not see our passion for biblical Truth growing—but declining. There were so many different views and different Bible Versions it only made me less prepared and more confused. We began relying on what the teachers said rather than what the Bible said because we were sure they know more because they had a degree, right? No, it was almost like I had to detoxify myself of all of man’s wisdom and get back into my KJB and fellowship with those with like-minded passion. I did just that in 2014. God has been so good to me. ‘Who is a wise man and endued with knowledge among you? let him shew out of a good conversation his works with meekness of wisdom. But if ye have bitter envying and strife in your hearts, glory not, and lie not against the truth. This wisdom descendeth not from above, but is earthly, sensual, devilish. For where envying and strife is, there is confusion and every evil work. But the wisdom that is from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, and easy to be entreated, full of mercy and good fruits, without partiality, and without hypocrisy. And the fruit of righteousness is sown in peace of them that make peace’ (James 3:13-18).”
False leaders have been the demise and damnation of millions. Hell is full of false leaders and those who chose to follow these wolves in sheep’s clothing instead of Christ.
“For the leaders of this people cause them to err; and they that are led of them are destroyed (in hell).” Isaiah 9:16
Jesus never told you to go to seminary. Rather, He commanded you to lay down your life right now and follow Him. Now read these words from Jesus and see if you need seminary to understand this simple truth:
“If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross daily, and follow me. 24 For whosoever will save his life shall lose it: but whosoever will lose his life for my sake, the same shall save it.” Luke 9:23-24
Professional clergymen have hi-jacked and ruined the life of Christ from that which feigns to be representing Him. Most of them came from Satan’s seminaries!
Seminarian wolves have hi-jacked the local churches and that’s why true followers of Jesus are gathering organically – without the contamination of professional clergy wolves. Individual believers and true ministers of Christ who are not part of their fraternal, Jesuit-trained order are intentionally shunned in the apostate churches and yet are fulfilling their call like Jesus and His apostles – without a building to contain them from reaching the people.
NEWS FLASH: SATAN CONTROLS THE SEMINARIES, CHURCH SYSTEMS, AND LOCAL CHURCHES.
If your thought and perspective of serving God is the vision of a so-called church building, you do not have a kingdom perspective and are in desperate need of repentance, deep Bible study, and praying that the LORD opens your eyes.
When you truly realize that the MOST HIGH, the very KING of kings saves and ordains you – and you truly fear Him and not men – that will be the only ordination you ever mention or acknowledge! (John 15:16) Those to truly know the LORD and obviously fear Him, do not seek the approval of mere sinful men, especially the “accursed” who preach another gospel (Galatians 1:10). | Pastors According to My Heart (Jeremiah 3:15)
THE TRUE DISCIPLE OF JESUS WILL NOT BE SELF-MADE OR SEMINARY-MADE BUT RATHER SAVIOR-MADE! SELAH! SUCH A MAN DILIGENTLY AND DAILY SEEKS THE FACE OF THE LORD IN A LIFE OF PRAYER AND BIBLE STUDY! LIKE THE ONE HE IS TRULY FOLLOWING, HE SEEKS NO APPROVAL OF MEN.
God never sends any man to seminary. They are self-sent. Jesus says to follow Him: He had no degree and was mocked by the hypocritical religious leaders of His day (John 7:15-18). God has not changed. Those who truly know and follow Christ entered into the school of the Holy Ghost and Word of God the day He saved them!!!
ANY LOCAL CHURCH THAT SEARCHES FOR OR WOULD EVEN TAKE AS AN ELDER A SEMINARIAN WHO HAD NOT REPENTED AND DENOUNCED HIS PHONY SEMINARY DEGREE IS AN APOSTATE CHURCH! JOHN 15:16
In the qualifications for an elder among Christ’s body, can you find the need to be degreed?
Biblical Qualifications for Overseers
“This is a true saying, If a man desire the office of a bishop, he desireth a good work.
2 A bishop then must be blameless, the husband of one wife, vigilant, sober, of good behaviour, given to hospitality, apt to teach;
3 Not given to wine, no striker, not greedy of filthy lucre; but patient, not a brawler, not covetous;
4 One that ruleth well his own house, having his children in subjection with all gravity;
5 (For if a man know not how to rule his own house, how shall he take care of the church of God?)
6 Not a novice, lest being lifted up with pride he fall into the condemnation of the devil.
7 Moreover he must have a good report of them which are without; lest he fall into reproach and the snare of the devil.” 1 Timothy 3:1-7
THERE IS NOT ONE MENTION OF A HIGHER LEARNING DEGREE IN THE BIBLICAL LIST OF QUALIFICATIONS FOR AN ELDER. SUCH HAS BEEN ADDED BY MEN AND DEVILS.
The Son of God Didn’t have a Degree!
“And the Jews marvelled, saying, How knoweth this man letters (Jesus had no degree from sinful men), having never learned? (no formal education)
16 Jesus answered them, and said, My doctrine is not mine, but his that sent me.
17 If any man will do his will, he shall know of the doctrine, whether it be of God, or whether I speak of myself.
18 He that speaketh of himself seeketh his own glory: but he that seeketh his glory that sent him, the same is true, and no unrighteousness is in him.” John 7:15-18
On this passage, William MacDonald, author of the Believer’s Bible Commentary, notes:
“7:15 Those who heard the Savior marveled. Doubtless it was His knowledge of the OT (Scriptures) that impressed them most. But also the breadth of His learning and His ability to teach attracted their attention. They knew that Jesus had never been to any of the great religious schools of that day, and they could not understand how He could have such an education as He did. The world still expresses amazement and often complains when it finds believers with no formal religious training who are able to preach and teach the Word of God.
7:16 Once again it is beautiful to see how the Lord refused to take any credit for Himself, but simply tried to glorified His Father. Jesus answered simply that His teaching was not His own, but that it came from the One who sent Him. Whatever the Lord Jesus spoke and whatever He taught were the things which were the things His Father told Him to speak and to teach. He did not act independently of the Father.
7:17 If the Jews really wanted to know whether His message was true or not, it would be easy for them to find out. If anyone really wills to do God’s will, then God will reveal to him whether the teachings of Christ are divine or whether the Lord was simply teaching what He Himself wanted to teach. There is a wonderful promise here for everyone earnestly seeking the truth. If a person is sincere, and truly wants to know what is the truth, God will reveal it to him. “Obedience is the organ of spiritual knowledge.’”
7:18 Anyone who speaks from himself, that is, according to his own will, seeks his own glory. But it was not so with the Lord Jesus. He sought the glory of the Father who sent Him. Because His motives were absolutely pure, His message was absolutely true. No unrighteousness was in Him.
Jesus was the only One of whom such words could be spoken. Every other teacher has had some selfishness mixed in his service. It should be the ambition of every servant of the Lord to glorify God rather than self.”
Cross-Less Curriculums of Seminaries
“Enemies of the cross of Christ.” Philippians 3:18-19
CHRIST’S KING-DOM IS ALLLL ABOUT KING JESUS!!! AND NOT SOME CHUMP WHO’S BUILDING A CHURCH BUSINESS BY ENTERTAINING SELF-SEEKING GOATS WITH MUSIC AND TONED DOWN CLICHE’S, CATCHY PHRASES AND NEUTERED, “SUCCESS” MESSAGES.
“I once heard a wise old pastor say, ‘The best way to strip a man of his Christianity is to send him to Seminary.’” Gina Martin
“I have learned more from born again evangelists who never went to seminary, than those who did. They preach from the heart, keep the message plain and easy to understand, and know their Bible inside out!! More sacrilege and blasphemy has come from seminaries than I can count here. The Holy Spirit will God us in all we do, if we let Him.” Donna Hawthorne Riegler
Jeff Scholz writes: “God’s anointing is in His word. Even someone who is newly born again that barely reads the Bible, when they pick it up, even for the first time, as soon as they start reading God is already speaking to that individual. The LORD can call and use anybody at any time, any one of His people.”
Saints, the seminaries and their seminarian agents have created a stronghold over many parts of that which claims to be Christendom, smothering and snuffing out the life of Christ. Beware. Pray for understanding and insight and spread the light of truth on this darkness that has blanketed the minds of so many. These are the Nicolaitan devils, the very agents of Satan himself and their false systems and doctrines Jesus says He hates (Revelation 2:6, 15). Nicolaitan Devils Busted and Exposed!
Satan uses seminaries and seminarians in pulpits to produce these false leaders and to intercept and distort that innocence of the new believer who is a new creature in Christ by way of being now born again (2 Corinthians 5:17-18).
In the vast majority of local churches today, little emphasis is placed on the divine priorities of essential biblical truth such as the divinity and holiness of the LORD, the necessity of the daily cross and prayer, etc.
SEMINARIANS ARE TAUGHT TO READ WHAT OTHER MEN SAY ABOUT THE BIBLE INSTEAD OF SIMPLY STUDYING THE BIBLE FOR THEMSELVES. THEY ARE COMMENTARY INTENSIVE INSTEAD OF SCRIPTURE INTENSIVE!
I’ve been to two Bible colleges and many of those who attended (the students) were not even born again! Many of them openly and laughingly admitted to such!
Having a seminary degree means that someone has been taught well to not personally study and assimilate the whole counsel of God’s Word in an honest manner but rather to manipulate Scripture to teach and defile others which such diabolical systems of theology as calvinism and un-conditional eternal security. Calvinism is the Devil’s System and all who teach it are his wolves! Beware.
True servants of the LORD must be called and prepared by the LORD, not mere men who falsely feign to be Christ’s representatives. | Divine Preparation for Ministry
“Taught of God” …. (1 Thessalonians 4:9)
“The Holy Ghost teacheth”! 1 Corinthians 2:13
Seminary prepares no one for ministry – Only Jesus can do that in the life of the called-out, obedient men who choose to do things HIS way and not man’s way! “for many be called, but few chosen.” (Matthew 20:16)
SAVE YOUR MONEY AND TIME – GO TO THE SAVIOR, NOT SEMINARY!
If Jesus created, found, saved, and called you, can He not prepare you? (John 15:16)
Where is your faith? Is it in men or God? (Hebrews 11:6)
Some would argue that the world is more civilized now than it was 2,000 years ago when Christ came. Nonsense. They therefore argue that seminaries are a product of our enlightened age. Nonsense.
In the first century, we know of certainty that there was much emphasis placed upon the prestigious institutions of higher religious learning. This is further established by the mocking mention of Jesus not having a degree in John 7:15, and Paul’s credentials – being taught at “the feet of Gamaliel” and “an Hebrew of the Hebrews; as touching the law, a Pharisee.” (Acts 22:3; Philippians 3:5) Obviously there were great centers for religious learning, namely Jewish, in the days of our LORD and His apostles. Yet not only do we have not a single instance of Jesus or His apostles sending anyone to a higher learning center, the graduates of those institutions were actually the greatest persecutors of Christ and His apostles. They were antichrists. Nothing has changed! We have the same scenario transpiring all around us today in the professing church world.
There is no hate here toward men but rather the devil who has deceived men, leading them away from God while claiming to be representing Christ …. this subversion is characteristic of “the spirit of antichrist.”
The very reason we don’t have more intense and diligent Bible learning in the church world is due to seminarian leadership. Meditate on this. Seminary is like the catholic cult – designed by the enemy to keep people out of God’s Word for themselves.
The way “the spirit of antichrist” works…. is while feigning to be representing Christ, it misrepresents Christ. Subversive, insidious deception perpetrated against Christ and His people (2 Thessalonians 2:1-12; 1 John 4:3).
ANYONE WHO CRASSLY DISMISSES THE FACT THAT JESUS NEVER SENT ANYONE TO SEMINARY IS ALREADY OPERATING ON HUMAN WISDOM AND NOT GOD’S WISDOM AND IS DESTINED FOR A WASTED LIFE OF WOLFERY!
Seminaries train men to please men, not God. They train men to operate in devil-inspired and man-controlled churches which are apostate, Ichabod!
The Almighty is not impressed with a seminary degree and in fact cannot use you until you repent and denounce it and announce your full and complete dependence upon Him!
Seminaries create a type of brotherhood or fraternal order which causes the sin of respect of persons (Romans 2:11). In this God-less connection, there is respecter of persons which is a clear and sinful violation of God’s Word (James 2:9).
When some Jews got saved, Jesus told them to continue in the Word and as they did they would know His truth and be made free. Christ had all the opportunity in His Universe to direct these new believers to go to some higher learning institution that had set itself up. No such mention from the Son of God! Here it is:
“Then said Jesus to those Jews which believed on him, If ye continue in my word, then are ye my disciples indeed; 32 And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.” John 8:31-32
Heaven’s King here taught these new believers that His truth – knowing and obeying it – would make them His disciples and make them free. Jesus clearly infers here that they could and would definitely know His truth if they “continued in” His “Word.”
To be Holy Ghost filled is very important per Scripture and yet not enough. You must have both the power and revelation of the Holy Spirit and astute adherence to the “sound doctrine” of Holy Scripture (2 Timothy 2:15; 3:15-17, etc.).
NO, YOU DON’T NEED SEMINARY, YOU NEED THE SAVIOR! MORE OF JESUS IS THE ANSWER AND PREREQUISITE FOR MINISTRY.
“Now when they saw the boldness of Peter and John, and perceived that they were unlearned and ignorant men, they marvelled; and they took knowledge of them, that they had been with Jesus.” Acts 4:13
Seminaries are an open pit, drawing men who were never called of God in the first place and intercepting, indoctrinating and destroying men who are actually God-called, making them “twofold more the child of hell than yourselves.” (Matthew 23:15).
Many who sign up for seminary see what they view as an easy profession. All they have to do is get the degree and they can send out resumes. Seminaries are a breeding ground for self glory which is completely contradictory to the teachings of Jesus.
Saints, this pride we see coming from people who claim to be Christian leaders because they attended a seminary is proof of the truth that seminaries do not prepare people to serve God, period. Many are full of self and may God grant repentance. See John 7:18 – “He that speaketh of himself seeketh his own glory: but he that seeketh his glory that sent him, the same is true, and no unrighteousness is in him.”
“Higher learning” is in reality indoctrination, brainwashing.
Is the world getting smarter or dumber? Want to get humbled and embarrassed? Look up the 8th grade primer from just 100 years ago here in America. Most college graduates couldn’t answer near half of those questions. Shocking dumb down! In the same way, preachers of old knew God’s Word and had mountains of Scripture from the King James Bible committed to memory.
EXAMPLE OF THE PROPHESIED GREAT FALLING AWAY / APOSTASY (2 THESSALONIANS 2: NOT 1 SEMINARY TODAY USES THE KING JAMES BIBLE WHICH IS THE PRESERVED WORD OF GOD TO THE ENGLISH SPEAKING PEOPLE OF THE WORLD (PSALMS 12:6-7).
Prayer of Repentance: Father, I here and now acknowledge You and how You alone made, saved, and called me for Your purposes. In the name of Jesus Christ, right this moment, I confess my sin of pride and self-idolatry and for not seeking Your face in this matter. I now see how I went my own way and not Yours. Please forgive me now LORD and instill thy holy fear in my bosom, leading me in Your paths to know and be prepared to be used of You. In Jesus’ name, amen!

Abiding
The Curse of a Divided Heart and Blessing of a Whole Heart! [podcast]

Israel’s heart was divided. The solution.
“Their heart is divided; now shall they be found faulty: he shall break down their altars, he shall spoil their images … 12 Sow to yourselves in righteousness, reap in mercy; break up your fallow ground: for it is time to seek the LORD, till he come and rain righteousness upon you.” Hosea 10:2, 12
King Asa: Tragic end of an otherwise obedient, fruitful, God-glorifying life….
Are you blessed or cursed?
“Thus saith the LORD; Cursed be the man that trusteth in man, and maketh flesh his arm, and whose heart departeth from the LORD.” Jeremiah 17:5
King Asa trusted the physicians and not the LORD and he paid dearly.
“And Asa in the thirty and ninth year of his reign was diseased in his feet, until his disease was exceeding great: yet in his disease he sought not to the LORD, but to the physicians.” 2 Chronicles 16:12
Feet speak of foundation. Without feet, physically we cannot stand. Without a sound foundation of truth, of God’s Word in our lives, we shall not stand. Read Matthew 7:19-29.
One writes notes the following about the meaning of feet in God’s Word:
“Why Are Feet Important in the Bible? Just as men and women stand upon their feet as the foundation of upright posture, Bible verses also use feet as a euphemism to represent a strong foundation in various circumstances. Feet are not referenced as we see them today, but they are used as symbols to represent greater metaphorical concepts, such as guidance or direction.
The feet represented something that was common to all people but used differently. For example, one of the most noted scripture texts involving feet is Psalm 119:105, ‘Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path.’ This emphasizes how the feet are used to travel and traverse. Yet, without the word, the traveler is left walking in the dark without a known path.
Essentially, the feet are referenced as a critical part of life as walking was commonplace. We naturally travel where our feet lead us and the Bible verses use feet to represent a means of traveling through life itself. If we walk down a dark path, we are likely to stumble. If we walk down a holy path, we are sure to please God. All of this is facilitated symbolically by the feet.”
The foundation truth we learn in God’s Word and obedience to it determines the direction of our lives.
“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.” Colossians 2:6-7
Becoming Rooted and Grounded in Christ
Like Asa, many today trust the counsel of mere men, such as doctors and not God. This doesn’t mean going to a doctor is a sin and yet, the true disciple will primarily trust and obey and be led of the LORD, not men.
“But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.” Hebrews 11:6
Read Hebrews 3-4 prayerfully for the eternal danger of having “an evil heart of unbelief” AFTER being saved. Repentance required.
“They speak vanity every one with his neighbour: with flattering lips and with a double heart do they speak.” Psalms 12:2
Got depression? Are you seeking the LORD in true repentance whereby He will grant you great joy? (Psalms 51; 2 Timothy 1:7) Or, are you seeking out and trusting the mere human, the finite pundits of this fleeting world?
“But ye are forgers of lies, ye are all physicians of no value.” Job 13:4
Those who trust human physicians and not the Great Physician, are cursed, not blessed. Their faith in mere men reveals their utter rebellion.
“See, I have this day set thee over the nations and over the kingdoms, to root out, and to pull down, and to destroy, and to throw down, to build, and to plant.” Jeremiah 1:10
2 Chronicles 15:17 – Upon becoming king in Judah, Asa, having inherited an idolatrous, lukewarm people, system… he began to command that…
- The people do that which is right in God’s eyes (2 Chronicles 14:2)
- That all idolatrous altars we torn down (2 Chronicles 14:3)
- That God’s people seek His face (2 Chronicles 14:4)
- That idol altars in the cities of Judah be removed – “and the kingdom was quiet before him” (2 Chronicles 14:5) ….. Proverbs 1:33
- Fenced cities be built …. so the land could be at rest, at peace, and not fear the enemy (2 Chronicles 14:6)
- The people be involved in building fenced, walled, protected cities – “Therefore he said unto Judah, Let us build these cities, and make about them walls, and towers, gates, and bars, while the land is yet before us; because we have sought the LORD our God, we have sought him, and he hath given us rest on every side. So they built and prospered.” (2 Chronicles 14:7) …… 1 Chron 16:11
- Great military be built (2 Chronicles 14:8)
“The LORD is with you, while ye be with him; and IFFFF ye seek him, he will be found of you; but IF ye forsake him, he will forsake you.” 2 Chronicles 15:2
“But the high places were not taken away out of Israel: nevertheless the heart of Asa was perfect all his days.” 2 Chronicles 15:17
“Well; because of unbelief they were broken off, and thou standest by faith. Be not highminded, but fear: 21 For if God spared not the natural branches, take heed lest he also spare not thee. 22 Behold therefore the goodness and severity of God: on them which fell, severity; but toward thee, goodness, if thou continue in his goodness: otherwise thou also shalt be cut off.” Hebrews 11:20-22
“The wicked shall be turned into hell, and all the nations that forget God.” Psalms 9:17
“Now consider this, ye that forget God, lest I tear you in pieces, and there be none to deliver.” Psalms 50:22
“Believe in the LORD your God, so shall ye be established; believe his prophets, so shall ye prosper.” 2 Chronicles 20:20
God blesses those who trust Him and curses, removes His blessings from those who once trusted Him and yet now have forgotten Him. When we willingly offer ourselves as living sacrifices to the LORD our God, He avenges us of all our enemies (Judges 5:2) …. “But IF thou shalt indeed obey his voice, and do all that I speak; then I will be an enemy unto thine enemies, and an adversary unto thine adversaries.” (Exodus 23:22)
“WHEN” does God avenge us of our enemies? “WHEN” does God judge our enemies?
“Praise ye the LORD for the avenging of Israel, WHEN the people willingly offered themselves.” Judges 5:2
When we offer our lives a living sacrifice unto the LORD – that is, we simply surrender this life to Him – the subduing of our enemies begins.
“I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service. 2 And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.” Romans 12:1-2
Asa reigned as king in Judah for 39 years (2 Chronicles 14-16).
In his final days, after obeying God and bringing much needed reform to the people of God, Asa forgot the LORD, and had grown cold in his faith and was therefore cursed with a divided heart.
All those who trust mere men, just because they have a white coat on and are called “doctor”, are going to die as did king Asa who trusted in earthly physicians, instead of the Great Physician! Repent now sinner.
“Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. 6 In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths. 7 Be not wise in thine own eyes: fear the LORD, and depart from evil.” Proverbs 3:5-7
Are you a pessimistic pansy or an optimistic overcomer? Are you like the 10 spies or the 2 who entered the promised land while the 10 sad sack whiners were shut out? “The righteous are bold as a lion.” (Proverbs 28:1) Jesus asks “WHERE is your faith?” (Luke 8:25) Repenting for real and putting all your trust in the LORD is essential – and no one will be in the promise land of Heaven without sound, solid faith in God. “Without faith it is impossible to please him.” (Hebrews 11:6). “Thus saith the LORD; Cursed be the man that trusteth in man, and maketh flesh his arm, and whose heart departeth from the LORD.” (Jeremiah 17:5)
Read Revelation 2-3.
Remember the woman Jesus, the Great Divine Physician made whole of her issue who had previously spent all she had on human physicians?
“And a certain woman, which had an issue of blood twelve years, 26 And had suffered many things of many physicians, and had spent all that she had, and was nothing bettered, but rather grew worse, 27 When she had heard of Jesus, came in the press behind, and touched his garment. 28 For she said, If I may touch but his clothes, I shall be whole. 29 And straightway the fountain of her blood was dried up; and she felt in her body that she was healed of that plague. 30 And Jesus, immediately knowing in himself that virtue had gone out of him (accessed by faith in Him), turned him about in the press, and said, Who touched my clothes? 31 And his disciples said unto him, Thou seest the multitude thronging thee, and sayest thou, Who touched me? 32 And he looked round about to see her that had done this thing. 33 But the woman fearing and trembling, knowing what was done in her, came and fell down before him, and told him all the truth. 34 And he said unto her, Daughter, thy faith (in God not men) hath made thee whole; go in peace, and be whole of thy plague.” Mark 5:25-34
You claim to be trusting God but you take a mood drug? I don’t think so. MOOD DRUGS ARE FOR THE WICKED UNBELIEVERS. PERIOD. REPENT.
When a person resorts to using a drug to uplift their mood, they are loving and believing the world more than God, forfeiting the blessing of God for a cheap substitute, and manifesting their contempt for the LORD, their unbelief. A born again, presently abiding
disciple of Jesus has all the fruit of the Holy Spirit which include, “Love, joy, peace…” (Galatians 5:22-23) God gives His people “power… love, and a sound mind.” (2 Timothy 1:7) God’s Word has the answer to “ALL things that pertain unto life and godliness” and that specifically includes a “sound mind.” (2 Peter 1:3-4) Holy Scripture specifically uses the terms “sound mind” and “sound heart” which come only from learning and adhering to “sound doctrine.”
We live in a fallen world and were born in sin. Via the things that have happened to us and that we ourselves have perpetrated on others, fragmentation of our hearts has occurred. Only One can make us whole.
“And there was delivered unto him the book of the prophet Esaias. And when he had opened the book, he found the place where it was written, 18 The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he hath anointed me to preach the gospel to the poor; he hath sent me to heal the brokenhearted, to preach deliverance to the captives, and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty them that are bruised, 19 To preach the acceptable year of the Lord.” Luke 4:17-19
“And the very God of peace sanctify you wholly; and I pray God your whole spirit and soul and body be preserved blameless unto the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ. 24 Faithful is he that calleth you, who also will do it.” 1 Thessalonians 5:23-24
“He healeth the broken in heart, and bindeth up their wounds.” Psalms 147:3
Counting it all Joy
“My brethren, count it all joy when ye fall into divers temptations; 3 Knowing this, that the trying of your faith worketh patience. 4 But let patience have her perfect work, that ye may be perfect and entire, wanting nothing. 5 If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him. 6 But let him ask in faith, nothing wavering. For he that wavereth is like a wave of the sea driven with the wind and tossed. 7 For let not that man think that he shall receive any thing of the Lord. 8 A double minded man is unstable in all his ways.” James 1:2-8
Through the trials we face in this life, we must learn to “count it all joy when ye fall into divers temptations”, trust God not men, ask for and rely on His wisdom and not waver, but rather finished our course trusting and walking with Christ to the end of our lives.
“I have fought a good fight, I have finished my course, I have kept the faith:” 2 Timothy 4:7
“For God is not unrighteous to forget your work and labour of love, which ye have shewed toward his name, in that ye have ministered to the saints, and do minister. 11 And we desire that every one of you do shew the same diligence to the full assurance of hope unto the end: 12 That ye be not slothful, but followers of them who through faith and patience inherit the promises.” Hebrews 6:10-12
The Whole Heart
“And all Judah rejoiced at the oath: for they had sworn with all their heart, and sought him with their whole desire; and he was found of them: and the LORD gave them rest round about.” 2 Chronicles 15:15
The result of seeking the LORD with a whole heart is that He gives us “rest round about.”
“But whoso hearkeneth unto me shall dwell safely, and shall be quiet from fear of evil.” Proverbs 1:33
9 Times in the book of Psalms the words “Whole Heart” appear. Here’s the first 3 of that collection:
“I will praise thee, O LORD, with my WHOLE HEART; I will shew forth all thy marvellous works.” Psalms 9:1
“Praise ye the LORD. I will praise the LORD with my WHOLE HEART, in the assembly of the upright, and in the congregation.” Psalms 111:1
“Blessed are they that keep his testimonies, and that seek him with the WHOLE HEART.” Psalms 119:2
PRAYER: Dear heavenly Father, I have sinned against You by not wholly trusting You. I have not sought You with my whole heart. Here and now I confess this for the evil sin of unbelief and rebellion that it is and ask You to please forgive me now in the name of Jesus. Please wash me afresh from all my sins with the precious blood of Jesus Christ. Also please make my heart whole and increase and fill me with Your faith Father, and cause me to trust You with all of my heart, no matter what. I love You my dear LORD. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
