TEACH THE KINGDOM, AND NOT CHURCH SERVICES

" Do And Could You Recognize False Gospel And False Teachings?"

Jesus and His Followers Did Not Teach Church, But They Preached God's Kingdom And How We Should And Must Live In It:

Jesus warned us that “false Christs and false gospels, and false prophets and false apostles, and false pastors and false prophetess” will come and will attempt to deceive even God’s elect ( Matthew 24:23-27;) study also ( 2 Peter 3:3 ) and ( Jude 17-19 ). The best way to guard yourself against falsehood and false teachers is to know the truth. To spot a counterfeit, study the real thing. Any believer who “correctly handles the word of truth” ( 2 Timothy 2:15 ) and who makes a careful study of the Bible can identify false doctrine. For example, a believer who has read the activities of The Name Of His Child, His Son, Will be called Wonderful, Counselor, The Mighty God, The Everlasting Father and The Prince of Peace in Is 9:6 will immediately question any doctrine that denies that God and Jesus are One as in John 10:30. Therefore, step one is to study the Bible and judge all teaching by what the Scripture says.

Jesus said, “a tree is recognized by its fruit” ( Matthew 12:33 ). When looking for “fruit,” here are three specific tests to apply to any teacher to determine the accuracy of his or her teaching: Jesus Christ Is God With Us In Flesh, John 1:14 and also 1 Tim 3:16

What does this teacher say about Jesus? In Matthew 16:15-16, Jesus asks, “Who do you say I am?” Peter answers, “You are the Christ, the Son of the living God as the Prophet said in Is 9:6,” and for this answer, Peter is called “blessed.” In 2 John 9, we read, “Anyone who runs ahead and does not continue in the teaching of Christ does not have God; whoever continues in the teaching has both the Father and the Son.” In other words, Jesus Christ and His work of redemption are of utmost importance; beware of anyone who denies that Jesus is equal with God because He said when you are looking at Me, you are looking at The heavenly Father, who downplays Jesus’ sacrificial death, or who rejects Jesus’ humanity. First John 2:22 says, “Who is the liar? It is the man who denies that Jesus is the Christ. Such a man is the antichrist, he or she denies the Father was revealed and manifested in the Son.”

Does this teacher preach the gospel? The gospel is defined as the good news concerning Jesus’ awesome news, His new way of living, and His heavenly Kingdom, according to the Scriptures ( 1 Corinthians 15:1-4 ). As nice as they sound, the statements “God loves you,” “God wants us to serve and minister to His chosen Church first in meeting their needs,” and “God wants you to be wealthy so we can build His Kingdom” are the complete message of the gospel. As Apostle Paul warns in Galatians 1:7, “Evidently some people are throwing you into confusion and are trying to pervert the gospel of Christ.” No one, not even a great preacher, has the right to change the message that God gave us. “If anybody is preaching to you a gospel other than what you accepted, let him or she is eternally condemned!” ( Galatians 1:9 ). Study about heaven and there is No Lack, No Needs, No Crying, No Pain, No Sickness, No more Death, are you getting this? Church and her Leaders please, please Wake Up!!!.

Does this teacher exhibit character qualities that glorify the Lord? Speaking of false teachers, Jude 11 says, “They have taken the way of Cain; they have rushed for profit into Balaam’s error; they have been destroyed in Korah’s rebellion.” In other words, a false teacher can be known by his or her pride ( Cain’s rejection of God’s plan), greed ( Balaam’s prophesying for money), and rebellion ( Korah’s promotion of himself over Moses ). Jesus said to beware of such people and that we would know them by their fruits ( Matthew 7:15-20 ). Preachers did not Jesus Christ said Himself, It is more blessed to give than to receive?, So start obeying Him and give and bless Christ sheep, His Church. Yes, Jesus Christ gave and shared everything with us His believers, We must do likewise Ministers and Pastors, Bishops, Founders, Members.

For further study, review those books of the Bible that were written specifically to combat false teaching within the church: Galatians, 2 Peter, 1 John, 2 John, and Jude. It is often difficult to spot a false teacher/false prophet. Satan masquerades as an angel of light ( 2 Corinthians 11:14 ), and his ministers masquerade as servants of righteousness ( 2 Corinthians 11:15 ). Only by being thoroughly familiar with the truth will we be able to recognize a counterfeit as in our day lies are everywhere here on social media, in your religious Sundays' services, television ministries.

We Are Leading One And All, To The One Lord God Jesus Christ.

God Loves A Cheerful Giver, Be One!!!
