Matthew 15:14
King James Version
14 Let them alone:
they be blind leaders of the blind.
And if the blind lead the blind,
both shall fall into the ditch.
How JESUS hated hypocrisy!
It is not the LENGTH of existence of the ministry.
Nor the VOLUME of teachings of the ministry.
Nor the AMOUNT of members in the ministry.
Much less the MONEY collected for that ministry.
Or PROJECTS the ministry is involved in.
Or WORLD domination of it.
It is the CONTENT of the ministry.
What SUBSTANCE does it have?
Is it of CHRIST?
Does it have the SIMPLICITY,
of the GOSPEL of CHRIST?
Are they true to the WORD of GOD?
Or has self taken over?
That is the Holy Spirit's reproof today.
For there are many false doctrines, false Christs, false gospels, and false prophets today.
The Lord Jesus warned us of these:
Matthew 7:15
King James Version
15 Beware of false prophets,
which come to you in sheep's clothing,
but inwardly they are ravening wolves.
Matthew 24:4-5
King James Version
4 And Jesus answered and said unto them,
Take heed that no man deceive you.
5 For many shall come in my name, saying,
I am Christ;
and shall deceive many.
Matthew 24:11
King James Version
11 And many false prophets shall rise,
and shall deceive many.
Matthew 24:23-24
King James Version
23 Then if any man shall say unto you,
Lo, here is Christ,
or there;
believe it not.
24 For there shall arise false Christs,
and false prophets,
and shall shew great signs and wonders;
insomuch that,
if it were possible,
they shall deceive the very elect.
Matthew 24:26-27
King James Version
26 Wherefore if they shall say unto you,
Behold,
he is in the desert;
go not forth:
behold,
he is in the secret chambers;
believe it not.
27 For as the lightning cometh out of the east,
and shineth even unto the west;
so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.
Matthew 15:8-9
King James Version
8 This people draweth nigh unto me with their mouth,
and honoureth me with their lips;
but their heart is far from me.
9 But in vain they do worship me,
teaching for doctrines
the commandments of men.
Luke 16:15
King James Version
15 And he said unto them,
Ye are they which justify yourselves before men;
but God knoweth your hearts:
for that which is highly esteemed among men
is abomination in the sight of God.
The world is in a precarious state today.
We are distracted by too many things.
Our desire must be God's will alone.
Jesus already paved the path.
In all His simplicity.
2 Corinthians 11:3-4
King James Version
3 But I fear, lest by any means,
as the serpent beguiled Eve through his subtilty,
so your minds should be corrupted
from the simplicity that is in Christ.
4 For if he that cometh preacheth another Jesus,
whom we have not preached,
or if ye receive another spirit, which ye have not received,
or another gospel, which ye have not accepted,
ye might well bear with him.
How to know if you've followed the RIGHT church?
Spirit will tell you more on this post.
