We will dispense with the generic reference to “Heaven” as a person or God that can be prayed to, along with other irrelevant phrases the false teachers spread throughout the church communities, that simply are not true. Such as, “higher power,” “follow your heart,” “what I confess I possess,” or “you can’t move up unless you sow a seed.” These phrases are spoken from the lips of a liar, manipulator, and deceiver sent from the Devil himself.
Instead, we will declare the One who saves and calls His children by name. Who always speaks the truth, the words given by God the Father. That would be Jesus Christ, the Son of God! King of kings and Lord of lords, the first and the Last. The Lamb of God, who lived a perfect life, sacrificed His life, died, and rose again to take away the sins of those who would repent, believe, and follow Him with their life, who God the Father has set over all, with all rule, authority, dominion, and power.
Colossians 1:15-2 “He is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of all creation. 16 For by Him all things were created, in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or rulers or authorities—all things were created through Him and for Him. 17 And He is before all things, and in Him all things hold together.“
18 “And He is the head of the body, the church. He is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead, that in everything He might be preeminent. 19 For in Him all the fullness of God was pleased to dwell, 20 and through Him to reconcile to Himself all things, whether on earth or in heaven, making peace by the blood of His cross.“
He is not just a man, but He is God. He is not just another prophet, but He is the One prophesied about from ancient times. He came and did just as it was written of Him. He is not just a lord, but He is the Lord of all lords. He is not just a king, but the King of all kings. He is not just a god, but He is the God of all creation who made all things and has put everything in order. He holds everything in place until the time the Father has set for Him to make a new Heaven and a new Earth, welcoming His servants there to receive their reward.
Ephesians 1:19-23 “And what is the immeasurable greatness of His power toward us who believe, according to the working of His great might that He worked in Christ when He raised Him from the dead and seated Him at His right hand in the heavenly places, 21 far above all rule and authority and power and dominion, and above every name that is named, not only in this age but also in the one to come. 22 And He put all things under His feet and gave Him as head over all things to the church, 23 which is His body, the fullness of Him who fills all in all.“
The vast majority of those in leadership in the churches were never called or chosen by God to be His leaders; this is why they speak this way. In fact, they are servants of Satan sent to infiltrate the church buildings and Christian organizations to deceive and lead astray the children of God. It has become evident to many of us that the majority of mainline denominations have been overcome by the enemy from within.
The Devil devised a plan centuries ago to corrupt the institutions established initially to help us know God and Jesus better. To prevent sinners from hearing the truth of God’s Word, repent, and turn from their wicked ways. The fear that the Devil may overthrow these places of worship is no longer a threat, but it has become a reality. The disturbing thing is that the people of the church have been deceived effectively by those who are false, who have taken over power from within. Unfortunately, for the most part, the congregants are entirely unaware of what is truly going on. Here are some scriptures to support the claim that these things were foretold.
Amos 8:11-12 “Behold, the days are coming,” declares the Lord God, “when I will send a famine on the land— not a famine of bread, nor a thirst for water, but of hearing the words of the Lord. 12 They shall wander from sea to sea, and from north to east; they shall run to and fro, to seek the word of the Lord, but they shall not find it.“
2 Timothy 3:1-7 “But understand this, that in the last days there will come times of difficulty. 2 For people will be lovers of self, lovers of money, proud, arrogant, abusive, disobedient to their parents, ungrateful, unholy, 3 heartless, unappeasable, slanderous, without self-control, brutal, not loving good, 4 treacherous, reckless, swollen with conceit, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God, 5 having the appearance of godliness, but denying its power. Avoid such people. 6 For among them are those who creep into households and capture weak women, burdened with sins and led astray by various passions, 7 always learning and never able to arrive at a knowledge of the truth.“
Suppose you were to examine each denomination and place of meeting with proper biblical judgment. In that case, you may notice that what they teach has been distorted and twisted by false teachers, incorrectly interpreted, or tainted with lies, to the extent that what they are telling the people is no longer the truth. Indeed, if not the truth, what these false teachers are saying are lies from the Devil intended to deceive the people and take over the religious organizations through subversion. It has already happened worldwide.
Men and women have crept in, for the most part, unaware of the people within. It has become so bad that many multitudes within churches say they believe in God and Jesus, and yet proclaim the things God calls evil as good and good as evil because they have learned to accept what is false.
Jude 1:4,8 “For certain people have crept in unnoticed who long ago were designated for this condemnation, ungodly people, who pervert the grace of our God into sensuality and deny our only Master and Lord, Jesus Christ.”
8 “Yet in like manner these people also, relying on their dreams, defile the flesh, reject authority, and blaspheme the glorious ones.“
Jude 1:12-16 “These are hidden reefs at your love feasts, as they feast with you without fear, shepherds feeding themselves; waterless clouds, swept along by winds; fruitless trees in late autumn, twice dead, uprooted; 13 wild waves of the sea, casting up the foam of their own shame; wandering stars, for whom the gloom of utter darkness has been reserved forever. 14 It was also about these that Enoch, the seventh from Adam, prophesied, saying, “Behold, the Lord comes with ten thousands of His holy ones, 15 to execute judgment on all and to convict all the ungodly of all their deeds of ungodliness that they have committed in such an ungodly way, and of all the harsh things that ungodly sinners have spoken against Him.” 16 These are grumblers, malcontents, following their own sinful desires; they are loud-mouthed boasters, showing favoritism to gain advantage.“
There are many false teachers within the churches, so those who hold true to God’s word and follow the prompting of the Holy Spirit are few and far between. It shouldn’t be hard to see the wolves in sheep’s clothing. However, unfortunately, for many, they can’t see it because the Devil masquerades as an angel of light, and his servants do the same thing, deceiving and being deceived.
2 Corinthians 11:14-15 “And no wonder, for even Satan disguises himself as an angel of light. 15 So it is no surprise if his servants, also, disguise themselves as servants of righteousness. Their end will correspond to their deeds.“
You need Jesus to change your heart and mind. You need the Holy Spirit to give you rebirth in the spirit; otherwise, you will remain blind to deception. So judge every preacher or teacher by the fruit of their words, actions, and deeds. Don’t be afraid to do as the Apostle told Timothy to do when you see error, but rebuke, correct, and instruct in all purity, truth, and gentleness. The Lord will judge and punish those who refuse to listen, who are false, once He allows them to fill up the fullness of their rebellion. In time, He will be the one who puts an end to their wicked schemes. Remember, everything is in Jesus’ hands.
2 Timothy 4:1-5 “I charge you in the presence of God and of Christ Jesus, who is to judge the living and the dead, and by His appearing and His kingdom: 2 preach the word; be ready in season and out of season; reprove, rebuke, and exhort, with complete patience and teaching. 3 For the time is coming when people will not endure sound teaching, but having itching ears they will accumulate for themselves teachers to suit their own passions, 4 and will turn away from listening to the truth and wander off into myths. 5 As for you, always be sober-minded, endure suffering, do the work of an evangelist, fulfill your ministry.“
Now is the time to seek Jesus Christ with all your heart and speak the truth with love, that some may turn, be brought back to a right relationship with God, and be saved from the judgment to come. The time of the end is upon us, a time of tribulation, the arrival of a one world order, and the Anti-Christ is coming soon. Yes, we don’t know exactly when, but the signs are becoming clear that it is soon, imminent.
Pray in the Spirit of the Lord that Jesus may open your eyes to the signs that you may be aware of what is happening. May God give you wisdom, insight, boldness, and guidance to do the will of God the Father. He will lead you in all righteousness to follow the narrow path He has for you, and the work He has planned for your life to save souls through the proclamation of the Gospel of Jesus Christ and whatever else is according to His will. Praise God, reward is in store for those who endure to the end. So stand firm in your faith in the Lord Jesus Christ; nothing that happens to you will be wasted, but everything is for the glory of God.
Daniel 12:3-4 “And those who are wise shall shine like the brightness of the sky above; and those who turn many to righteousness, like the stars forever and ever. 4 But you, Daniel, shut up the words and seal the book, until the time of the end. Many shall run to and fro, and knowledge shall increase.”
