False doctrines and the false prophets who bring them.

in #yeshua7 years ago

Matthew 24:11 And many false prophets shall rise, and shall deceive many. 24:12 And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold.
24:13 But he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved. 24:14 And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come.
Matthew 7:15 Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves.
When Yeshua says beware of false prophets He does not mean the obvious false prophets such as Mohammed, Buddha, Benny Hinn, Joel Osteen, Robert Schuler, Kenneth Copeland etc.
No when Yeshua warns of these false prophets He speaks to us of those who look like those of us who are the true sheep of Yeshua, those who hear His voice and follow Him.(John 10:27 My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me: )
Yeshua warns us of those who so closely resemble they who belong to Him that it is hard to tell the difference and that it is only possible to tell by those who hear Him, in other words listen to His Holy Spirit. When you hear a message and it is 99% Truth but 1% sounds like it is wrong then you have heard His voice because the Holy Spirit lets us know instantly and depending on how strong your trust in God is you will obey His voice and be warned of the wolf that spoke the 1% lie. Now you might think it is possible for a person to make a mistake and that 1% is that a genuine mistake and this can indeed be so but not so when the Holy Spirit really warns, you will know if you listen to Him. I have listened to brothers in Christ make mistakes before and known from the Holy Spirit that it was a genuine mistake and that even though they made that mistake the Spirit reassured me and said to me the brother in question is still in the process of being perfected.
If there are still issues of flesh such as pride of learning and self obtained knowledge for example or lusts for this world are still present these mistakes can appear despite those being elected of God.
But false prophets are another matter, they are wolves sent in amongst the sheep in disguise as sheep to sow seeds of heresy among them and they have been doing so since the beginning of the Church.
Of these false seeds, these false doctrines are many that are being taught amongst men in all denominations. These are then a proof unto those who hear the Holy Spirit and have been told by Him to leave these denominations and to follow Him and hear His voice only. He has called you out and those of you who have have heard Him belong to Him because you have followed Him, obeyed Him. (1Peter 2:9 But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people; that ye should shew forth the praises of him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvellous light: )
It is all a matter of faith as those who have believed Yeshua follow Him! Just as then so it is now! (Mark 4:33 And with many such parables spake He the word unto them, as they were able to hear it. 4:34 But without a parable spake He not unto them: and when they were alone, He expounded all things to his disciples. )
To you who will hear His voice to you will He explain by His Holy Spirit His Word and He will tell you All Truth and of things to come He will reveal. (John 16:13 Howbeit when He, the Spirit of Truth, is come, He will guide you into ALL TRUTH: for He shall not speak of Himself; but whatsoever He shall hear, that shall He speak: and He will shew you things to come. )
It all being then a matter of faith how are we to proceed you ask? In His Word and by His Spirit for there is no other source of Truth in this world until the Lord returns. He is the Truth. (John 16:14 He shall glorify Me: for He shall receive of Mine, and shall shew it unto you. 16:15 All things that the Father hath are Mine: therefore said I, that He shall take of Mine, and shall shew it unto you. )
If then now we know the Truth as He is Yeshua we do follow Him and Him alone. Then why would we need teachers added unto us you ask? Indeed we don't have any need of teachers but One and He is the One given to us to teach us ALL TRUTH. (John 14:26 But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in My Name, He shall teach you ALL THINGS, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you. )
So then if those amongst us who have not yet heard His voice have not started yet to heed His Will it is because they have been heaping to themselves teachers instead of choosing that which is right and only allowing the Holy Spirit to teach them! As He only should be our teacher!(1Jn 2:26 These things have I written unto you concerning them that seduce you. 2:27 But the anointing which ye have received of Him abideth in you, and ye need not that ANY man teach you: but as the same anointing teacheth you of ALL THINGS, and IS TRUTH, and is no lie, and even as it hath taught you, ye shall abide in Him. )
False prophets then have been seducing you who have not listened to Yeshua and the Holy Spirit! Only those with ears to hear will hear and obey!
(2Timothy 4:3 For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears;)
Am I saying that there should be no teachers? What are teachers? Is it they who bring Truth or error? Is a true teacher not so, one according to the scriptures, one who will hear God's voice and speak His Word to you which when heard should be confirmed within you to either be from the Holy Spirit or not, therefore we always hear by His voice and are taught of Him, and not of not man. (2Pe 1:20 Knowing this first, that no prophecy of the scripture is of any private interpretation. 1:21 For the prophecy came not in old time by the will of man: but holy men of God spake as they were moved by the Holy Ghost. )
Therefore those who are teachers amongst you should be men filled with the Holy Spirit and only speak by Him and not by their own minds. Many have gone forth among us as teachers yet their words are not confirmed in our hearts by the Holy Spirit as being ALL TRUTH but have among them damnable heresy and it is these men who are the wolves in sheep's clothes our Lord Yeshua has warned us of. These are they who introduce words never spoken by our Lord, a different doctrine, one of devils!
I shall name some of these doctrines here for you as most will recognize them as I too once was fooled by some of these until I stopped listening to men and started to follow Yeshua whole heartedly in Truth.
There are those who have taught the imminence doctrine saying the Lord's return for His Bride is imminent, this is false as it is one of the Lord's appointed times just as in fact His birth, death and resurrection and ascension were all His appointed times. (seasons, appointed times, appointments=mo'edim in Hebrew)
The doctrine surrounding the rapture of the Church being in the middle of the Great tribulation is another such a false doctrine denying the very promises of Yeshua to His Bride. The blessed hope is robbed from the 5 foolish virgins who have believed this lie and as a result will indeed go through the hour of temptation as a reward for unbelief in their Lord and Saviour, they will have to be purified to still become a part of the Bride!(Revelation 6:11 And white robes were given unto every one of them; and it was said unto them, that they should rest yet for a little season, until their fellowservants also and their brethren, that should be killed as they were, should be fulfilled. )
The doctrine surrounding the 144000 which is still a mystery as it only says regarding them that they are virgins unsoiled by women who will always remain in Yeshua's company and will follow Him wherever He goes and they are 12000 from each of the elected tribes of Israel. The false doctrine surrounding these is actually started by movie makers and church preachers have believed the lie and preached it saying these go about in the Great tribulation preaching the gospel to all men a saying which is nowhere to be found in scripture, in other words a lie!
There are many more false doctrines such as the replacement theology surrounding Israel, a gap theory in creation etc all doctrines of devils. It is only by Truth you will know Truth!
It is only by the Holy Spirit we are revealed ALL TRUTH regarding Yeshua who is the Truth, Way and the Life.
