9 Bible Passages to a New Life – And Deliverance from False Leaders who Elevate themselves in Place of Jesus

We see people running around calling themselves “doctor” and “bishop” and “prophet,” etc., and they don’t even know the Word. Think: If they had even cursory knowledge of God’s Word, and just a smidgen of conviction, would they be using a title to draw attention to themselves? No (Matthew 23:8-12).

It’s actually quite astounding to see how so many today trade in Christ and their own eternal souls for a cheap, temporary substitute just as Esau traded his birthright for a bowl of soup (Hebrews 12:14-17).

“Let me not, I pray you, accept any man’s person, neither let me give flattering titles unto man. For I know not to give flattering titles; in so doing my maker would soon take me away (remove you from His kingdom).” Job 32:21-22

IF you are calling yourself a prophet or apostle, you are not one! Repent!

Repent and drop the title. Jesus’ kingdom is about HIM, not you!

“Titles serve no purpose other than pandering to the flesh.” David Clifton

Make no mistake: Those using titles are doing so to bring attention to THEMSELVES and not the Savior!

“Reverend” appears just once in God’s Word and it’s speaking about HIM, not a man – “He sent redemption unto his people: he hath commanded his covenant for ever: holy and reverend is HISSSS name” (Psalms 111:9).

OTHER than the Hell bound “doctors of the law” Jesus lambasted, does the title “doctor” appear in God’s Word, Christ’s kingdom? No! Repent.

The gifts and callings of God are gifts and callings to serve and not titles to tout!

Make no mistake, idolatry of mere sinful men is soul-damning sin (Galatians 5:19-21; Ephesians 5:5-9, etc.). God is a jealous God – He says His very name is “Jealous” (Exodus 34:14).

“I am the LORD: that is my name: and my glory will I not give to another, neither my praise to graven images.” Isaiah 42:8

Jesus says “ye are all brethren” and teaches against the use of titles among His people since such elevates mere sinful men and steals the glory from Him who bled, was buried, and rose again.

It doesn’t matter WHO among us, Christ’s body, preaches the Word, it just needs to be preached! Jesus is the featured One, not any mere sinful man. “All ye are brethren” (Matthew 28:8-12). Concerning preaching, the Gospel writes: “Therefore whether it were I or they, so we preach, and so ye believed” (1 Corinthians 15:11).

You think you are an apostle or prophet? Read what Jesus taught in Matt 20:20-28; 23:8-12. Repent and stop calling yourself such. Shut your mouth and humbly serve!

We just don’t get it. We don’t begin to understand that He is everything and we are nothing. We have nothing good except Him – Christ! See Romans 7:18, 24. We don’t perceive that Jesus Christ, the LORD, is our only wealth – that He is our “Exceeding great reward” (Genesis 15:1).

“That no flesh should glory in his presence. … 31 That, according as it is written, He that glorieth, let him glory in the Lord.” 1 Corinthians 1:29, 31

— YES, there are gifts and callings and functions given by God to the members of His body but not in order to elevate themselves above Him. Certainly we must just listen to Christ and drop all titles (Romans 12; 1 Corinthians 12; Ephesians 4). Here’s a simple question: Why does a person use a title unless he is elevating himself? Why not use the title of “servant” or simply “disciple”? Those words are found all over Holy Scripture, so why not use them? Why O why can’t we just DO God’s will and work and leave the rest to Him? Why do we seek to draw attention to our sinful selves? Have we not the slightest clue from Scripture in our lives as to what Jesus says about humility, laying down our lives, becoming of no reputation, etc.? Think about this. Reason according to Scripture (Acts 17:11; 2 Timothy 3:16). We are not to use titles and especially those not even designated in God’s Word as callings in the true body of Christ, such as the use of the word “doctor” which we see all around us today. The only doctors mentioned in the Word are religious pharisees who are not saved and who used their education (from men) and titles to oust Christ and elevate themselves above others unduly in order to manipulate and to exploit them for their own self-serving purposes (Matthew 23:8-12; Philippians 3:18-19).

Jesus taught against using titles. What title touters are doing is positioning themselves deceitfully over others by using any titles like “apostle” or “prophet.”

“But be not ye called Rabbi: for one is your Master, even Christ; and all ye are brethren. And call no man your father upon the earth: for one is your Father, which is in heaven. Neither be ye called masters: for one is your Master, even Christ. But he that is greatest among you shall be your servant. And whosoever shall exalt himself shall be abased; and he that shall humble himself shall be exalted.” Matthew 23:8-12

1 Corinthians 3:21 “Therefore let no man glory in men. For all things are yours;”

2 Corinthians 4:5 “For we preach not ourselves, but Christ Jesus the Lord; and ourselves your servants for Jesus’ sake.”

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.”

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

Galatians 6:14 “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.”

Regrettably, and according to Christ’s warnings, the overwhelming majority of men in leadership positions today are not there to simply glorify Christ but rather are “enemies of the cross of Christ” and that’s rather obvious in that their “God is their belly (self-serving carnal appettites),” and “who mind earthly things.” In other words, you don’t get the sense of Christ alone and eternity when you listen to them. The Holy Ghost is not involved because that man has put Jesus aside for the idolatry of building his own ministry or church business.

“(For many walk, of whom I have told you often, and now tell you even weeping, that they are the enemies of the cross of Christ: 19 Whose end is destruction, whose God is their belly, and whose glory is in their shame, who mind earthly things.) For our conversation is in heaven; from whence also we look for the Saviour, the Lord Jesus Christ: 21 Who shall change our vile body, that it may be fashioned like unto his glorious body, according to the working whereby he is able even to subdue all things unto himself.” Philippians 3:18-21

Regrettably many today run around calling themselves prophets and apostles and bishops, etc.. They are quick to let you know just how wonderful THEY are. These are biblical callings (not titles) and yet we must not pump up ourselves but rather simply do the function of the divine calling. We must simply do the serving and not draw attention to ourselves with titles and the applause of mere men.

In Matthew 20:20-28 Jesus taught that He came to serve us and that we should go forth and serve others, not self. Unduly using and attaching titles to ourselves is under girded with the pride of life.

WHEN a man really repents, he will have no title to tout but only his own depravity and God’s mercy through Christ’s cross to celebrate! Memorize Titus 3:5-6. Posture of Dependency

God’s Not Impressed with Gifts

Recently the question of apostles, prophets, etc. came up:

“And he gave some, apostles; and some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and some, pastors and teachers; 12 For the perfecting of the saints, for the work of the ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ:” Ephesians 4:11-12

Ephesians 4:11-12 … The question is, are these titles to be touted or simply functions to serve in? Matthew 20:24-28 right? It seems clear that most who call themselves “apostles” today are using this as a title to self promote…. which would make them “false apostles” which we are specifically warned about (2 Corinthians 11:13). This doesn’t mean there aren’t any apostles (messengers) today though, as you point out, they must be “known” (discerned) “by their fruit” (Matthew 7:15-16, 20). It seems obvious that there ARE elders in the form of apostles, prophets, evangelists, pastors, teachers, etc., as Ephesians 4:11-12 was written decades after Pentecost, after the original 12 were selected by Christ. These are functions to serve in to be a blessing in humbly serving God by serving His people to perfect/mature/equip them, and not to build a ministry on how wonderful the man is. Jesus is “the apostle and high priest” of our salvation, right? See Hebrews 3:1.

The use of these callings to self-elevate is clear proof one is false. If someone is truly called out by Jesus to be an apostle, which simply means messenger, they aren’t using such a calling as a title to promote self or their ministry. Such would be in violation of what Jesus taught about using titles in specific:

Jesus teaches (Matthew 23):

8 “But be not ye called Rabbi: for one is your Master, even Christ; and all ye are brethren.
9 And call no man your father upon the earth: for one is your Father, which is in heaven.
10 Neither be ye called masters: for one is your Master, even Christ.
11 But he that is greatest among you shall be your servant.
12 And whosoever shall exalt himself shall be abased; and he that shall humble himself shall be exalted.”

Greg Locke is a “false apostle”…. and the function, gift of an apostle comes with great suffering such as was the case for Paul. False apostles will never be seen going through what Paul and the other true apostles went through. The frauds of today don’t bear the marks of a true apostle. Genuine apostles today are too busy serving their LORD to stop and glory in what God never intended to be a place of self glory and glamour. Like all true servants, they humbly serve and all the glory goes to Jesus, not them.

Feedback:

“I have heard plenty of people on TV insist that you refer to them by a title Pastor, Evangelist, Prophet, Prophetess, among others. I even heard one man who says he is a prophet go by master prophet because he said he put in the hours like when someone goes to school to earn their masters degree so he is to be called master prophet….what???? So serving God is compared with punching a clock and putting in time???? Another one said a woman approached her and called her sister so-andso, and she rebuked her saying it is prophetess so-and-so. SO much insisting on titles. I agree how about servant so- and-so” Stephanie J.

“Amen to this! Too many w!ant a title to elevate themselves above others ( i.e., Apostle, Pastor, Minister, Prophet, etc.). Personally, I choose ‘Sojourner’ as I am sojourning here on earth as Heaven is my home. I am a wanderer and bondservant of Christ. Humility is found through serving, not being served.” Turk B.

A Generation of False Prophets Unleashed [podcast]

“There is a generation that are pure in their own eyes, and yet is not washed from their filthiness.” Proverbs 30:12 Why would any true child of God run around looking for “a word” or supposed vision from a mere human when they have THE very word of God – the Bible? “Thus saith the LORD of hosts, Hearken not unto the words of the prophets (false leaders) that prophesy unto you: they make you vain: they speak a vision of their own heart, and not out of the mouth (written Word) of the LORD.” Jeremiah 23:16 “I have […]

Are Christians to Mark False Prophets Publicly? [podcast]

Loving the Light and Exposing the Darkness Any man not guarding, not protecting Christ’s flock, by warning of false teachers and false doctrine, is himself a wolf! Jesus and His holy apostles often rebuked and exposed false leaders and false doctrine (Matthew 23; Acts 13:10; 20:29-31; Galatians 5:11-12; 2 Timothy 4:2-4; 2 Peter 2; 2 John 7-11; Revelation 2:6, 15, etc.). Therefore we know that part of following Jesus includes doing the same. In fact, the body of Christ is mandated to do just that (Romans 16:17-18; Philippians 1:17; Jude 3-4). “Now I beseech you, brethren, mark them (scope […]

WHEN PARENTS GET OLD …

author unknown

WHEN PARENTS GET OLD …

“Let them grow old with the same love that they let you grow … let them speak and tell repeated stories with the same patience and interest that they heard yours as a child … let them overcome, like so many times when they let you win … let them enjoy their friends just as they let you … let them enjoy the talks with their grandchildren, because they see you in them … let them enjoy living among the objects that have accompanied them for a long time, because they suffer when they feel that you tear pieces of this life away … let them be wrong, like so many times you have been wrong and they didn’t embarrass you by correcting you …

LET THEM LIVE and try to make them happy the last stretch of the path they have left to go; give them your hand, just like they gave you their hand when you started your path!

(“Honor your mother and father and your days shall be long upon the earth”.) – God”

“Children, obey your parents in the Lord: for this is right. 2 Honour thy father and mother; (which is the first commandment with promise;) 3 That it may be well with thee, and thou mayest live long on the earth.” Ephesians 6:1-3

Karen Cochran writes:

“A few years ago the Lord spoke to me and I heard honor your Father and Mother. I didn’t know that my Mom would be moving close to me in a few months and I would become her primary helper. It has been one of the biggest challenges of my life because she has dementia and isn’t always kind. I have had to come home many nights and sit at the feet of Jesus and ask forgiveness because I was not like Jesus to her. Then I go back everyday because the Lord commands us to Honor our Mother. He didn’t promise it would be easy. I have to be like Jesus and say Father forgive them for they know not what they do. Luke 23: 34 .As people who have dementia do not know what they are doing or saying.”

Sharing how God is working in her life concerning her relationship with her beloved mother, Karen Cochran writes:

“I had to die to being right. Pride! How could I love her (my mother) with the love of Jesus? How would she see Jesus in me? She would not see Him in me in all my pride and arrogance! By being full of pride, all I did was stir up strife. Proverbs 10:12 ‘Hatred stirreth up strifes: but love covereth all sins.’ Because she would retaliate and would be angry. I had to learn to keep my mouth shut. And it has completely changed our relationship. But first the Lord had to change me and cleanse me from my ‘know it all’ attitude and my pride. I went to the Lord and said ‘why is she (my mother) so mean to me’. The Lord straightened me out quick. It was me not her! I couldn’t control her! All I could do was allow God to root out what was sin in me.”

“Being broken to the core has been a continuous prayer for me. Otherwise my stone heart will hurt someone else that does not deserve to be hurt. Jesus had shown me my resentment against my parents. As I went to their grave, Jesus begin to say, ‘If they hadn’t taken you to Jesus at an early age, you wouldn’t be where you are now.’ I felt all the bitterness, anger, and hatred leave. How gracious is our Savior!” Thomas Cochran

Honoring the Elders Among Us

The LORD commands us to honor our parents and the elders He places in our lives. So, this honor is to manifest first in our families and then in the church environment, and everywhere we encounter our elders. “Honour thy father and thy mother: that thy days may be long upon the land which the LORD thy God giveth thee.” Exodus 20:12 This is a non-negotiable, divine command and one of the very Ten Commandments. “Whoso curseth his father or his mother, his lamp shall be put out in obscure darkness.” Proverbs 20:20 There is a blessing attached to honoring […]

The Sure Mercies of David [podcast]

What exactly does the Bible mean by the phrase “the sure mercies of David”? The divine guarantee in Christ is that God’s mercies are upon your life, is available to you – as His divine mercies were upon the beloved David, from whose lineage came the promised Messiah. This grants no license for sin, which leads to judgment – now and forever (Romans 11:20-22; Hebrews 10:26-39; 2 Peter 2:20-21). God’s mercy in no way negates the biblical truth that we must all reap what we sow (Galatians 6:7-8). Biblical examples of Sinful People God Forgave: Adam and Eve (Genesis 3). […]

"THAT REPENTANCE AND REMISSION OF SINS SHOULD BE PREACHED" [podcast]

“God … commandeth ALL men every where to repent.” “And the times of this ignorance God winked at; but now commandeth all men every where to repent: 31 Because he hath appointed a day, in the which he will judge the world in righteousness by that man whom he hath ordained; whereof he hath given assurance unto all men, in that he hath raised him from the dead.” Acts 17:30-31 WHEN’s the last time your favorite preacher preached on the essential doctrine of REPENTANCE? Be sure of this – Christ’s true remnant is preaching repentance. Are you preaching that […]

Gospel Action in Mexico Part 37

UPDATE – DELIVERED FOOD TODAY; – I purchased numerous food items for Clara and her boys today. Traversing difficult terrain to deliver the goods God supplied through your faithful giving left me with a sidewall puncture. A sidewall puncture cannot be patched and replacement was quoted at $274. Settled for a used tire. In this challenge came opportunity.

God used the punctured tire for me to meet a wayward man. Jose has spent time in the USA and has family there. His wife is presently in Colorado; he expressed strain on his family. Jose received God’s Word preached to him and the JESUS tract and said “You know what? My wife is also a Christian.” Wow. So, his beloved wife is praying for him to be saved and God answered her prayer in part by connecting me with him. This opportunity is because of your support for this ministry. Can we please pray for Jose and his family?

I am continuing to learn to assert Romans 8:28-29 into everything:

28 And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to [his] purpose. 29 For whom he did foreknow, he also did predestinate [to be] conformed to the image of his Son, that he might be the firstborn among many brethren.

Can anyone relate?

Mark is encouraging me in helping more people, one person/family at a time. Your prayers and giving are more than important, it is essential.

I found out Clara was in need again and was moved upon by the LORD to get her and her 3 sons some food. Her whole monthly money needed to sustain her, and her boys is about $350. The house she rents is $120 per month. I will leave it there.

It is amazing how much further our contributions go in Mexico, how much more it’s multiplied. A little bit of money and ministry here goes a long way to bless and expand Christ’s kingdom! …and to give hope to the hopeless.

We continue to pray for a few more saints to assert themselves into this opportunity. God is able, amen! All I can do is let these things be known. I am blessed by your support as I am encouraged by the fruitfulness of Mission Mexico both in the reach of the spiritual needs and the physical needs of God’s children. You are responding to Jesus’ instructions in Matthew 6:19-21

19 Lay not up for yourselves treasures upon earth, where moth and rust doth corrupt, and where thieves break through and steal: 20 But lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust doth corrupt, and where thieves do not break through nor steal: 21 For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.

Clara’s Cry Video was featured recently. Click here.

Please lift a prayer in Jesus’ name for the fruitfulness and supply of our LORD’s work here with Mission Mexico. God be praised. Multitudes being reached daily with Jesus Christ’s bless-ed Gospel – spoken to them and given in print in the JESUS tract in Spanish.

BELOVED ANTONIO came by again tonight to get something to eat. I warmly received and welcomed him. Had him sit down and rest with fresh water to drink while his delicious meal was cooking. When he left I broke down while hugging him and letting him know you are lifting him in prayer and that God loves him. I played the Spanish Bible audio of Scripture to him while I was cooking so the Word would be planted in his heart…. WHO wants to cry out with me to our LORD for this young man? WHO wants to seek God for a complete change in his precious life? Salvation and good employment/work, etc. Let it not be that he could ever say that “No man cared for my soul.” – “I looked on my right hand, and beheld, but there was no man that would know me: refuge failed me; no man cared for my soul” (Psalms 142:4). Jesus is coming saints. Let us pour out His love to the hurting. Jesus Christ died for this beloved young man! Mission Mexico is rolling! “WE are labourers TOGETHER with God” (1 Corinthians 3:9). This is what it’s all about dear saints. Jump in. God will bless.

“The LORD upholdeth all that fall, and raiseth up all those that be bowed down.” Psalms 145:14

Mission Mexico!

Beloved brother in Christ, Cesar, spent the last 14 days with his beloved mother before she passed. Mark and I went to visit Cesar the day after his mother passed. Mark and I agreed that Cesar was ministering to us. We went to comfort him and he ministered to us! Whew! You are invited to lift our beloved brother Cesar in prayer.

Oh and Cesar took about 50-60 JESUS tracts to distribute.

The plans are to be spending more time fellowshipping with Cesar again soon.

Months ago, I handed Cesar a JESUS tract and we begin to talk and he shared that he is a born again disciple of Jesus. Yesterday, with tears in his eyes, Cesar shared his testimony of Jesus’ salvation of his life 24 years ago. This is a beloved brother in our LORD Jesus for certain. Unpretentious.

As is so often the case, we gave this man a JESUS tract and spoke the Word to him. A few moments later here he is hungrily reading about His Maker and King, and Savior Jesus.

Saints we are supporting a missionary in the Philippines and am thanking the LORD for your prayers and supply to our LORD’s Gospel work …..

Anyone wish to pause and lift this man to our LORD in prayer? When ministered to, Victor asked questions. He is searching. God is able.

Thank you for praying for the beautiful people of this country. More Mission Mexico coverage here.

Remember brother Justin (from Australia) whom God miraculously saved here in Mexico? He is very grateful that you are lifting him in prayer. Praying for Christ’s saints is an essential (Colossians 4:12). Today Justin sent this:

“I was reading the book of John and the woman at the well last night, contemplating how some plant seeds to be harvested by others (John 4). Just being grateful to serve the Lord without needing to see results. Bless you. You certainty planted some seeds with me. I’ll check out Titus! Thank you brother. I am working out my salvation with fear and trembling, for sure, and I wouldn’t be doing it so much harder now without your support.” Justin B.

UPDATE ON BROTHER JUSTIN B.

Thank you for lifting in prayer our brother Justin B. (Australian) here in Mexico. He was saved just a few months ago here. Here’s the latest from our brother. Please pray the Word for him. John 15; Colossians 4:12.

“I am good, brother. I am back in the slipstream of the Word. Felt like I had to experience the desert of doubt to come out with more clarity. Though, ultimately, trust in God is not necessarily clear. Getting confident in God with that ‘cloud of unknowing.’

“Daily brother. It’s my clarion call/prayer now. Diminish me but increase my faith. Purify my heart, Lord, so I may glorify Your name. Thank you for showing me the way and keeping faith in me, brother.” Justin B.

Do we recall how Jesus told Peter: “And the Lord said, Simon, Simon, behold, Satan hath desired to have you, that he may sift you as wheat: 32 But I have prayed for thee, that thy faith fail not: and when thou art converted, strengthen thy brethren” (Luke 22:31-32).

Here’s the post where the account of Jesus saving Justin is contained.

Jesus Saved Justin [podcast]

This is beloved David (pictured above) who received extensive ministry of God’s love and Word. Please lift up David, Daniel, and Justin. Colossians 4:12.

Omar was invited to have you pray for him. He readily agreed and is glad to know you are lifting him to our LORD in prayer. Jesus told us He desires to save Omar (1 Timothy 2:4).

“My Dear Brother, I will continue to lift Clara and those precious children in prayer; for I know firsthand the hardship of raising 3 little ones alone in this selfish world. I am thankful to the LORD GOD ALMIGHTY for sending strangers into my life during my time of despair and brokenness. Thank you brother for being a good steward with the gifts that the people of God send into the Lord’s Ministry. May the Lord God bless and keep you all the days of your life.” Jacquie

Seeking the Will of God [podcast]

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

Maturity in Christ is seen in those who unrelentingly seek His face! 1 Chronicles 16:11

YOU are either going to clearly prove you love God by perpetually flooding your heart and mind with the Word, prayer, and praises of our LORD Jesus Christ…. or you absolutely will fall away (Luke 8:13; 1 Timothy 4:1-2, etc.).

“One thing have I desired of the Lord, that will I seek after; that I may dwell in the house of the Lord all the days of my life, to behold the beauty of the Lord, and to enquire in his temple.” Psalms 27:4

“When thou saidst, Seek ye my face; my heart said unto thee, Thy face, Lord, will I seek.” Psalms 27:8

“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.” James 1:5

“Call unto me, and I will answer thee, and shew thee great and mighty things, which thou knowest not.” Jeremiah 33:3

Notice that those not seeking the LORD today, are forsaking Him.

“if thou seek him, he will be found of thee; but if thou forsake him, he will cast thee off for ever.” 1 Chronicles 28:9

“For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God.” Romans 8:14

YOUR PRAYER: Heavenly Father, please forgive my sins afresh. I have had other gods before You and so have committed the sin of idolatry and spiritual adultery. Please wash me afresh with Your blood dear LORD Jesus. Create in me a clean heart, an heart of flesh and remove the stony places. Please help me to sense Your leading and impressions. You are my Great Shepherd and I am Your sheep. Fill me with Your Holy Ghost dear LORD and please use me. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

"NEVER take a Vacation from God" [podcast]

God’s Word teaches us to be diligent in knowing and following Christ – even when the word diligent is not used. “Seek the Lord and his strength, seek his face continually.” 1 Chronicles 16:11 Make the deliberate decision to “set… “Now set your heart and your soul to seek the Lord your God; arise therefore, and build ye the sanctuary of the Lord God, to bring the ark of the covenant of the Lord, and the holy vessels of God, into the house that is to be built to the name of the Lord.” 1 Chronicles 22:19 “Don’t you EVER take a vacation from God!” said my first […]
