Matthews 23:12-15
“And whosoever shall exalt
himself shall be abased; and he that shall humble himself shall be exalted. But woe unto you, Scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites!
For ye shut up the kingdom of heaven against men: for ye neither go in yourselves neither suffer ye them that are entering
to go in. Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For ye devour widows' houses, and for a pretence make long prayer:
therefore ye shall receive the greater damnation.
Woe unto you, Scribes and
Pharisees, hypocrites! For ye compass sea and land to make one proselyte, and when he is made, ye make
him twofold more the child of hell than yourselves”.
Jesus said “take
heed that no man deceive you” there will be many false prophets, false teachers and hypocrites (pretenders)
proclaiming damnable heresies after His departure leading many to hell. We can’t help but clearly see them today promoting
themselves, their road shows, and standing in the pulpits of America and the world.
The scripture says also these are
those who were made for destruction:
2Peter 2:1-3: But there were false prophets also among the people,
even as there shall be false teachers among you, who privily shall bring in damnable heresies, even denying the Lord that
bought them, and bring upon themselves swift destruction. And
many shall follow their pernicious ways; by reason of whom the way of truth shall be evil spoken of.
And
through covetousness shall they with feigned words make merchandise of you: whose judgment now of a long time lingereth
not, and their damnation slumbereth not.
This is especially true but not
exclusive to those of the word of faith, pentecostal, charismatic group whose minds have been corrupted resulting in them
being destitute of the truth, and supposing that gain is godliness (1 Timothy 6:5)
As seen in the above scripture
there is collateral damage to those who are being merchandised, and who adhere to another gospel other then that which was
once delivered unto the Saints. That is those who because of the covetousness in their own hearts and refusal to diligently
study and search the scriptures for themselves are being ensnared (trapped) by these ravening wolves in sheep clothing. If
they truly want to worship and serve the Lord in holiness, spirit and truth they need to be as the Berean's were in Acts 17:11
and study the scriptures to see if the things they hear are so. In turn they would know the truth and be able to escape the
damnation of Hell.
Otherwise they will continue to:
- Follow these false teachers pernicious (destructive) ways.
- By them calling themselves Christians they make the way of Christianity evil spoken of and cause many to stumble.
These ungodly men and women who
the bible says were before of old ordained to this condemnation turning the grace of our God into lasciviousness, and denying
the only Lord God, and our Lord Jesus Christ.
They are children of the devil
who have the nature of their father the devil and the desires and lust of their father they do: kill, steal, destroy, lie,
extort, and abode not in the truth.
Those who they have converted and
discipled unto “themselves” are even worst. They become twice the child of hell in their actions and deeds because
they not only partake of the devil their father nature but for the most part they blindly and adamantly defend the lies, and
heresies, while supporting and spreading the same. They influence others through carnality that which is fleshly, worldly,
and sensual, which God “HATES”.
They are more deceitful with their
so-called “personal words from God”, “new revelations”, “new moves of their gods”, new
breakthrough conferences, new increase prophecies, money cometh plans, worldly and deceitful repositioning plans, bless the
Pastor bless me clubs, new worldly church programs, forms of godliness, new “but old” step programs, new visions,
new anointing that breaks no yokes but instead adds heavy yokes. They are increasingly wicked in their idolatry, sorcery,
covetousness, and supposed curses on those who do not give to them monetarily in the disguise of giving to God.
If these twofold children of hell
continue in their wickedness and hypocrisy there will be no escaping the damnation of hell and rightfully so, unless they
repent.
Jesus said: Enter ye in at the
strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat:
Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it.
