Understanding how Divine Protection Works in Christ’s Body [podcast]

Have pity on deceivers? Absolutely not. “Mark them.” (Romans 16:17-18)

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

Read Deuteronomy 13:1-10.

Anyone who downplays warning the “little flock” for whom Christ’s died and rose again, is not being led by the Holy Spirit and we know that because such a person is contradicting the Word of God given to us by the “inspiration” of the Holy Ghost (Luke 12:32; 2 Timothy 3:16-17; 2 Peter 1:19-21). “For God is not the author of confusion.” (1 Corinthians 14:33) Beware saints.

What are they defending? Why would they desire to “bid Godspeed” to the “MANY” false leaders who are leading eternal souls astray? See 2 John 7-11.

Did Jesus lie? No.

“And MANY FALSE PROPHETS shall rise, and shall deceive MANY.” Matthew 24:11

Also those who downplay the need to warn the flock of God, deny the divine mandate to do just such such (Romans 16:17-18; Philippians 1:17; Jude 3-4, etc.). And to underplay the invasion of the massive priesthood of seminarian wolves unleashed upon that which is called the “church” today reveals a gross lack of biblical and historical understanding. How else would we have the final day resume’ of apostasy cited in detail for us in 2 Timothy 3:1-13? How did that come about without a priesthood of false prophets?

“For the leaders of this people cause them to err; and they that are led of them are destroyed.” Isaiah 9:16

Throughout Israel’s history, false “leaders” have always been the reason for their apostasy. See Jeremiah 23 and Ezekiel 34 and Matthew 23.

Read Acts 20:20-32. Here’s a taste of just how fervent Jesus’ apostle Paul was to warn the flock of God so that they could be protected.

“Therefore watch, and remember, that by the space of three years I ceased not to warn every one night and day with tears.” Acts 20:31

To say the least, today’s disciples have much catching up to do, in regard to the apostle Paul’s desire to protect the body of Christ from the “many false prophets” Jesus warned us would come in this last hour and “deceive many.” (Matthew 7:15; 24:11, etc.)

Acts 20

20 And how I kept back nothing that was profitable unto you, but have shewed you, and have taught you publickly, and from house to house,

21  Testifying both to the Jews, and also to the Greeks, repentance toward God, and faith toward our Lord Jesus Christ.

22  And now, behold, I go bound in the spirit unto Jerusalem, not knowing the things that shall befall me there:

23  Save that the Holy Ghost witnesseth in every city, saying that bonds and afflictions abide me.

24  But none of these things move me, neither count I my life dear unto myself, so that I might finish my course with joy, and the ministry, which I have received of the Lord Jesus, to testify the gospel of the grace of God.

25  And now, behold, I know that ye all, among whom I have gone preaching the kingdom of God, shall see my face no more.

26  Wherefore I take you to record this day, that I am pure from the blood of all men.

27  For I have not shunned to declare unto you all the counsel of God.

28  Take heed therefore unto yourselves, and to all the flock, over the which the Holy Ghost hath made you overseers, to feed the church of God, which he hath purchased with his own blood.

29  For I know this, that after my departing shall grievous wolves enter in among you, not sparing the flock.

30  Also of your own selves shall men arise, speaking perverse things, to draw away disciples after them.

31  Therefore watch, and remember, that by the space of three years I ceased not to warn every one night and day with tears.

32  And now, brethren, I commend you to God, and to the word of his grace, which is able to build you up, and to give you an inheritance among all them which are sanctified.

Return and Discern [podcast]

THE LORD IS DOING A WORK TODAY IN THE HEARTS OF HIS PEOPLE – BLESSING US TO BE POOR IN SPIRIT, HUNGERING FOR MORE OF HIM, AND PURE IN HEART (Matthew 5:3, 6, 8 ). It’s all in spite of our own failings and sin and because of His great mercies which are renewed every morning – GREAT is His faithfulness (Lamentation 3:22-23). Discernment is only granted by God when we truly repent which means we lay down our lives in this fleeting world and follow Jesus for real (2 Corinthians 3:16-18). WHEN we earnestly seek the face of the […]

Wolves Who Deceive, Devour, and Defund their Prey [podcast]

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; Colossians 1:28; Jude 3-4). Simply put, it doesn’t matter what you think: The LORD has commanded that Satan’s ministers, his human emissaries, be exposed. Time to shut up and obey! (2 Corinthians 11:12-15) “Let God be true and […]
