Hello everyone,
The world by the second grows more evil and corrupt to the point that trickery has entered the church, where we find them speak as motivational speakers but without any true substance, what do I mean? What I mean is that those who want to get people to fall for their ways would found a church and speak as motivational speakers in order to pull the crowd. The message would sound so powerful, but when you analyse it with the word of God, the focus isn’t on Jesus, this is getting common today.
Colossians 2:8 says, “Beware lest anyone cheat you through philosophy and empty deceit, according to the tradition of men, according to the basic principles of the world, and not according to Christ.” The ways of the world should not be mixed with Christ. We have today a lot of deceit as people are led astray through intellectual arguments which makes some question their belief in Christ; some still believe in superstitions and paint it in an attractive way by leading people astray. These sort of things are creeping into the church and some Sons of God are being led astray because they aren’t well grounded on the word, and this is where the leaders of the church come in, what exactly do they teach?
When our focus is on Jesus and we have a church gathering and the focus is on Jesus, it would be easy to identify those who are not of Christ. The devil cannot make the mistake to tell any of his agents to encourage people to meditate on the word of God to know more about Jesus, he just can’t, because that is what he doesn’t want to happen, and this is a way to identify false witnesses.
We should be like the Bereans who after receiving the word would search the scriptures to find out if what they heard conforms to the word of God. But we should do more than they did because of the trickery, we must ensure that what we heard is centred on Jesus and what we received by Grace through faith through His resurrection. We must be on the alert because the devil isn’t resting either.
May the LORD bless you and keep you, make His face shine upon you. May the LORD be gracious to you and lift up His countenance upon you, and give you peace. AMEN.
Why not accept Jesus today if you haven’t. Pray out loud, “Jesus, I confess that You are my Lord and Saviour. I believe in my heart that God raised You from the dead. By faith in Your Word, I receive salvation now. Thank You for saving me!” Congratulations, you’re born again, you are now brand new!
