For We Are Not Ignorant -
Apostate Pastors
Apostate Pastors
(Part I)
2 Corinthians 2:11
Lest Satan should get an advantage of us: for we are not ignorant of his devices.
1 Corinthians 10
1 Moreover, brethren, I would not that ye should be ignorant, how that all our fathers were under the cloud, and all passed through the sea;
1 Corinthians 12:1-2
1 Now concerning spiritual gifts, brethren, I would not have you ignorant.
2 Ye know that ye were Gentiles, carried away unto these dumb idols, even as ye were led.
1 Thessalonians 4:13
But I would not have you to be ignorant, brethren, concerning them which are asleep, that ye sorrow not, even as others which have no hope.
Romans 11:25
For I would not, brethren, that ye should be ignorant of this mystery, lest ye should be wise in your own conceits; that blindness in part is happened to Israel, until the fulness of the Gentiles be come in.
Romans 1:13
Now I would not have you ignorant, brethren, that oftentimes I purposed to come unto you, (but was let hitherto,) that I might have some fruit among you also, even as among other Gentiles.
There seems to be a common theme to Paul's letters to the churches. We shouldn't be ignorant of the spiritual battle we are fighting is his consistent message. But, it seems, there are a number of people who are ignorant. There are thousands attending apostate churches, as you will see in the videos below. These people obviously have a heart for God, but do not know His Word well enough to not be duped by these preachers. Of course, if you mention to them what the problem is they would argue with you. They would probably fight to the bone to defend themselves and the preachers they seem to idolize. A couple of the videos below ask questions of some of the congregation. And all that were interviewed defended the churches and the pastors. Personally, if I were in any of these churches, and heard what was being said on these videos, I would have walked out. Or at the very least, speak to the pastor later. Which I have done. But, of course, they defend their actions by twisting scripture.
One of the pieces of the uniform we are to adorn on the spiritual warfare battlefield is the Sword of the Spirit, which is the Word of God. The Bible.
Eph. 6
10 Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might.
11 Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.
12 For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.
13 Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.
14 Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness;
15 And your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace;
16 Above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked.
17 And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God:
18 Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all saints;
This is how we are not ignorant of Satan's wiles. We can't just listen to preachers and teachers. Unless we know they wield the Sword of the Spirit with truth. And the only way we will know that is by knowing the Sword of the Spirit, the Word of God, the Bible, ourselves. Satan has infiltrated the churches, and the pastors, for a long time. And it's only getting worse. So we need to protect ourselves, or actually have God protect us, by knowing His Word. Or, at the very least, when we see and hear something preached, we need to research it out and make sure what they are telling us is accurate. And be sure not to use an apostate Bible. There are many out there. The only one I trust is the King James version because it is the only one that was translated from the original Greek and Hebrew.
One of the reasons I have left the Christian faith is because I could not find anyone near my home that wielded the Word of God correctly. I feel that if they err in one area, how will I know they won't err in other areas? Therefore leading me astray. This doesn't mean that there aren't good preachers out there. Considering I live in a small town, they aren't easy to find here. But, if you live in a bigger city, you should be able to find someone. I thank God for the internet. This is how I get a lot of my teachings. Typically I can read my Bible and the Holy Spirit will direct me. But, occasionally I don't quite understand something. That's when I turn to an authority. But how do I know the authority is accurate? The Bible interprets itself. So, when I get a teaching from a Pastor, or Rabbi these days, I can always find a direct connection to another area of the same subject somewhere else in scripture. Sure, this may take time. But, this is our lifestyle now. That is what we were placed here for. For God's purpose, not our own. So, learning His Word, and walking the way He commands, should be our number one objective in our life.
Below are audios and videos from preachers that are pretty famous. They are known not only in America, but throughout the world. I was shocked at some of the things I heard and saw. Which is a pretty sad commentary.
First, I found a web site that spoke about the THE COMMUNIST MANIFESTO. I have a copy of it. Number 27 shows their plan to destroy Christianity. If you think this is a joke, and it's impossible, think back to Adolf Hilter. He professed to be a Christian. He was elected into office by Christians. Take a look who is in the Office of the Presidency in America right now. And who else has been in the office of Presidency. If you do your research on these people, you will find they are Communists, Marxists, and Socialists. If you look around and see how they have destroyed America, and the policies they are signing into law that do nothing but continue to destroy America and the American people, you will know that this is no game. Communists have infiltrated our government for a long time, and their goal is a One World Order, which the Bible talks about. This will be lead by the Anti-Christ, and the False Prophet. We are living in Bible prophecy as we speak. It's an exciting time, but a dangerous time. If there ever was a time to know the Word of God, it is today.
From LorenDavis.com
Below are a few quotes I took from Loren Davis' website . I would suggest going to his sight and reading the rest that I didn't put here. He is absolutely right on target.
In the 45 PLANKS OF THE COMMUNIST MANIFESTO, number 27 shows their plan to destroy Christianity.
27. Infiltrate the churches and replace revealed religion with "social" religion. Discredit the Bible and emphasize the need for intellectual maturity, which does not need a "religious crutch."
(Google: 45 Planks of the Communist Manifesto)
Throughout the civilized world today there are Christian CHURCHES ON EVERY STREET CORNER. At the same time there is a decline in morality and an open rejection of the Bible.
MANY IN THE MINISTRY HAVE WRONG MOTIVES.
Many denominations and preachers are making a business out of Christianity, diverting the money away from doing the real work of Christ. Satan TARGETS PREACHERS AND CHRISTIANS who are hungry for power and recognition. They become SENSATIONALISTS and use psychology and emotional hype to seduce God's people. Often, they seem more anointed than the real anointed servants of God. They are religious professionals. They are COPY CAT PREACHERS faking the anointing.
To choose money, popularity, or social standing over truth, or to profit from the Gospel work by compromising the truth, puts one in the same category as a prostitute. Professional psychologists and marketing agents are often employed by churches and ministries to raise funds for them. Many in today's Christianity have become MEN PLEASERS more than PLEASERS OF GOD. They preach what people want to hear more than what they need to hear. We must be true to God and to ourselves. This is not man's church, it is God's!
*I Peter 4:17..."judgment begins at the house of God."
A NEW CHRISTIANITY
A "New Christianity" has emerged that does NOT represent the actual teachings and spirit of the early church or of Christ Himself. Much of what is being expressed today as "Christianity" is COUNTERFEIT or a forgery, that is, something that is made to IMITATE and pass as genuine when it is actually not. PSYCHOLOGY, which basically teaches the opposite of the Bible, is preached from Christian pulpits instead of the Bible. Just a few scriptures are thrown in to disguise it and Christianize it. DARE TO THINK FOR YOURSELF
Most people, believe what they believe, because their grandmother, mother, church, school, or community has always believed that way. I challenge you to be a free and independent thinker. Remove the rose colored glasses of your religion, denomination or preacher, so you can objectively evaluate things. A NEW WORLD RELIGION IS COMING
Looking at the big picture, Christianity has become a confused mess. Many now perceive Christians as weak and emotionally unstable. There is a major international movement to blame Christians for the problems of the world. The One World movement's objectives are very clear, not only of blending the world economies into one, but also of merging all religions together with secularism into a new One World religion, THE RELIGION OF THE STATE. Government officials are now taking the church's place regarding setting the standard of values and of defining good and evil.
AN OBJECTIVE LOOK AT TRUE CHRISTIANITY
Tens of millions of people who used to go to church have stopped going because of many absurd things that are being taught and done in Christ's name. Personally, based on a lot of what has been seen and heard, I believe many of these people have legitimate complaints. OF COURSE THERE ARE MANY WONDERFUL CHURCHES AND PASTORS, AND THE GOOD SHOULD NOT BE THROWN OUT WITH THE BAD. WHAT IS TRUTH?
How can one find it? Today, with all the doctrines and teachings, Biblical truth has become irrelevant in much of Christianity as a whole. What a denomination or preacher considers as right or wrong most of the time supercedes what the Bible declares as truth in people's mind. *John 17:17 "THY WORD IS TRUTH."
*Mark 12:32 "Master, thou hast THE TRUTH."
WITHOUT TRUTH, ONE DOES NOT HAVE GOD!
*Jeremiah 7:28 "TRUTH IS PERISHED." UNLESS WE TAKE A SERIOUS LOOK at this issue, TRUE BIBLE CHRISTIANITY COULD BE LOST FOREVER.
DO NOT BE GULLIBLE
*Genesis 27:35 "THY BROTHER CAME with SUBTLETY, and HATH TAKEN AWAY THY BLESSING." In reality there are only two categories of people: Those who really believe the Bible, and those who really don't: BELIEVERS AND UNBELIEVERS.
*Jude 3 "Contending for the faith that once was delivered to the saints."
*Philippians 1:17 "I am set for the defense of the gospel."
DARE TO THINK AND ANALYZE
Most religious leaders want you to accept what they teach without question. That is not what the Bible teaches. *Hebrews 5:14 says, "But strong meat belongeth to them that are of full age, even those who by REASON OF THEIR SENSES (touch, taste, feel, smell, and hear), exercised to DISCERN BETWEEN GOOD AND EVIL." Dare to be open minded, dare to USE YOUR GOD-GIVEN MIND, and THINK.
There was so many audios and videos on the warning of apostate preachers, that I couldn't get them all. This is a sad commentary for America. The Bible says that in these end times there is coming a great apostasy. The number one reason I believe this is is because people don't read their Bibles and don't know when they are being lied to. Although there are some old time preachers that once had the spirit of the living God in them, that seem to be turning. Like Billy Graham. Today he is denying that Jesus Christ is the only way to God. Even though this is what the Bible states. Yeshua says in John 14:6 "I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me." But when interviewed, Billy Graham, and Joel Osteen, both, couldn't come up with this verse. They both completely mis-lead the people. How many could have been saved that night that were watching? And they totaling ignored their calling. You will see both these videos below.
Satan doesn't like to be noticed. Especially by Christians. But, in order to recognize him, as Paul says in the Bible, we can not be ignorant of Satan's wiles. We wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.
The only way we are going to know if something is not of God is to get to know God. How do we do that. Through His Word. It is His love letter to us. We need to spend time with Him, and in His word. How can we get to know somebody if we don't know anything about them?
Satan has schemes, and as Christians we are not to be outwitted. Satan has infiltrated our churches. We must recognize this. We must recognize how. One way is through the Pastors. I think the most dangerous in Rick Warren. He is very popular and is pushing a New Age gospel, and a one world religion.
I like to thank Combine Harvest Ministries, as I found some of the audios and videos I'm using below on their website.
