APOSTASY WATCH

We have already stressed that there are many false religious leaders out there to deceive you, the Lord Jesus Christ has urged me, several times, to make a strong stand to warn you against this and explain this to you.

As most of you know, the Lord is using me much in deliverance and has allowed me to see how evil spirits operate, within this the Lord has commanded me to study Apostasy and warn the people with sound explanation of what the enemy is doing inside the church and Christianity to deceive Christians into false teachings and deceiving them from the narrow path unto the broad way that leads to destruction.

"And many false prophets (false religious leaders) shall rise, and shall deceive many." Words of Jesus Christ (Matthew 24:11)

"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; and they shall turn away from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables." (2 Tim 4: 3-4)

FIRST SOME GENERAL Warnings of apostasy, heresy, false gospels, false doctrines (false teachings):

Many churches are lead by liberal theologians that twist the word of God to find an excuse to continue their own sinful lives or/and to please the (changing) society. Those denominations are often recognized by regarding acts of homosexuality (or its lifestyle) as not being sin. God forbid homosexuality like all other sins (Lev 18:22 & Lev 20:13 & Rom1: 25-27 & 1 Cor 6: 9-10 & 1 Tim 9-10 etc) and is very clear on this throughout His word. The law of God is eternal (1 Pet 1:25; Luke 16:17; Luke 21:33; Psalm 33:11; Psalm 45:6; Psalm 119:89; Psalm 119:152) God does not change, the world does, society does, but God doesn't (Heb 13:8) and His law is eternal. God is a HOLY God and His Holiness is eternal, God demands holiness and He clearly says without holiness no man shall see the Lord (Heb 12:14; 1 Pet 1: 15-16; 1 Thes 5:23-24; 1 John 2:6)
While Scripture  makes it clear homosexual behaviour to be an abomination and sin, along with immoral heterosexual behaviour (adultery and fornication) and that it comes under the judgment of God, and these unrepented sinners will not inherit the Kingdom of God,
it also indicates (the good news) that those who are homosexual or committers of other sins can be reconciled to God (2 Cor 5:17-21), through repentance of sin and by turning away from sin and receive Jesus Christ as their personal Lord and Saviour. There are many testimonies of people that were once bound by the spirit of homosexuality, but have been made free by the saving power of our Lord Jesus Christ. {Deliverance & Inner Healing ministry in particular can set you free of this struggle, see the designated menu tab on the left for more info} The law is eternal and sin will always be sin in the eyes of God, hence we must repent and turn away from sin. The saving power of Jesus Christ is omnipotent and nothing is impossible for God, if you are willing to turn away from sin.
Repent means to turn away from sin, to change and is the foremost message Jesus himself preached, read the gospels again and see for yourself. Luke 13:3 and 5 "except you repent, you shall all likewise perish"

 


 

IT IS TIME THAT THE WOLVES IN SHEEP'S CLOTHING ARE BEING EXPOSED...
to save the people they have deceived under their following; to save them by snatching them out of the fire!

Jude who stated so clearly (verse 3) that we as ministers of the Lord Jesus Christ have to contend for the faith to (verse 23): [Strive to] save others, snatching [them] out of [the] fire; on others take pity [but] with fear, loathing even the garment spotted by the flesh and polluted by their sensuality. [Jude 3 AMP - cross ref Zech. 3:2-4]

Warnings for wolves in the Word of God:

Eze 22:27 Her princes in the midst thereof are like wolves ravening the prey, to shed blood, and to destroy souls, to get dishonest gain.
Mat 7:15 Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves.
Mat 10:16 Behold, I send you forth as sheep in the midst of wolves: be ye therefore wise as serpents, and harmless as doves.

It is easy for Christians to end up under a false teacher and being deceived and lead astray, this is what these wolves, liars, false teachers, are appointed to do by Satan, the master deceiver and they do this in the name of Jesus Christ! That's why Jesus Christ warned beforehand as recorded in Mat 24:4-5 His opening verse to address the signs of the end-time "Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that no man deceive you. For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many."

In Galatians chapter 1 the Apostle Paul is seeing the start of this and wakes up the believers and says: "I marvel that ye are so soon removed from Him that called you into the grace of Christ unto another gospel: Which is not another; but there be some that trouble you, and would pervert the gospel of Christ. But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel unto you than that which we have preached unto you, let him be accursed. As we said before, so say I now again, If any man preach any other gospel unto you than that ye have received, let him be accursed."

Beware of dogs, beware of evil workers, beware of the concision. (Phil 3:2)
 

Discerning the tongue speaking wolves operating in the gifts:

First of all, I confess that I myself too have believed and listened some of these wolves, until the Lord Jesus Christ woke me up and urged me to study Apostasy in His word and research this and to warn the multitudes that are being lead astray, by the blind leading the blind and they both fall into the ditch (Mat 15:14). We must not underestimate Satan, the master deceiver, who does everything in his supernatural power to deceive not just the world, but also the believers, the Word of God make it clear that he is a counterfeit and that his mission is to deceive, kill and destroy. To deceive the believers Satan's agents operate under a counterfeit anointing, that's why these particular false teaching 'ministers' look so 'anointed' and look so much as Godly people, remember the Bible describes them as people with a form of Godliness (that means they look like Christians, they act like Christians, they talk like Christians) but they deny the power thereof (2 Tim 3:5). To make all of this even more difficult to discern, is that some of these false teachers 'ministers' have started off right, but became deceived and overcome by Satan after some time;

"But those who crave to be rich fall into temptation and a snare and into many foolish (useless, godless) and hurtful desires that plunge men into ruin and destruction and miserable perishing. For the love of money is a root of all evils; it is through this craving that some have been led astray and have wandered from the faith and pierced themselves through with many acute [mental] pangs." (1 Tim 6: 9-10 AMP)

That scripture is one of the many ways deception can take over, now the Word of God teaches us that the gifts and calling of God are without repentance (Romans 11:9) this is what I meant with where it becomes more difficult to discern, because this means that someone with the gift of healing or tongues or prophecy, will still have that gift after falling away from the truth into apostasy! So they will operate in the gift of healing, prophecy, speaking in tongues, but teaching another gospel, proclaiming another Jesus and lead multitudes astray.

"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." (2 Cor 11:4)


 On top of this, the word of God declares that these false teachers, false 'ministers' in the church and on the TV, will speak boastfully
"For when they speak great swelling words  of vanity {grandiloquent words / highly inflated vanity speaking - in the Dutch translation & boastful talking - uttering loud boasts AMP}, they allure (lure away) through the lusts of the flesh, through much wantonness, those that were clean escaped from them who live in error." (2 Pet 2:18)
These 'ministers' are smooth talking, have excellent speech, and Satan's way to deceive is of course to make it look and hear as if it is the truth, and therefore most of the teaching/preaching/sermon is correct, however the small part of it is the lie, there only needs to be 1% poison in a glass of water to kill, even though 99% of the glass of water is ok, it's the 1% that kills! That's why the Lord Jesus Christ gave a further warning:

How is it that ye do not understand that I spake it not to you concerning bread, that ye should beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and of the Sadducees? Then understood they how that he bade them not beware of the leaven of bread, but of the doctrine of the Pharisees and of the Sadducees. (Mat 16:11-12) A little leaven leaveneth the whole lump. (Gal 5:9)

The leaven is the false doctrine is the leaven...and just a little of it leaventh, effects the whole lump. The 1%, but it's normally more, of false doctrine is enough to kill the soul! that's why this is important, because believing the poison that these false preachers teach is enough to lead you astray into the ditch, which is everlasting hell fire. I need to be blunt, because it is too important to miss or to misunderstand my dear brothers and sisters, because your eternity is at stake. Why do you think the Lord Jesus Christ has put so much emphasis on warning us?

Just to summarize what we have read so far, the wolves are the false teachers, the false 'ministers' of the 'gospel' and some of them never served the Lord Jesus Christ and operate under a counterfeit anointing and with counterfeit gifts, but some of them started off serving the Lord Jesus Christ, but have in time been deceived by Satan and fallen away from the truth into apostasy;

"Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils;" (1 Tim 4:1)

Seducing spirits pretend to be the Holy Spirit, they are master deceivers and demons know the Word of God, these spirits operate at large in different ways and of course we must remember that spirits also operate through people and as we will see later, through prominent and highly influential 'Christian' ministers whom seduce many.
But these 'ministers' are still operating in gifts of God that are without repentance, so some of these wolves speak in tongues, have the gift of healing and prophecy but are teaching false doctrine, doctrines of devils. Remember again the warning words of the Lord Jesus Christ:

Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven. Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works? And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity. (Mat 7:21-23)


Furthermore it is important to point out in the Word that once these ministers who have fallen away from the faith and have given heed to seducing spirits become enslaved to corruption;
"They promise them liberty, when they themselves are the slaves of depravity and defilement--for by whatever anyone is made inferior or worse or is overcome, to that [person or thing] he is enslaved." (2 Pet 2:19 AMP)
"...they themselves are the servants of corruption: for of whom a man is overcome, of the same is he brought in bondage." (2 Pet 2:10 KJV)

So they become entrapped in the deception and enslaved to the spirit and its corruption, some of the 'ministers' that have fallen away, are convinced that they are not deceived, they believe their own lies, they are completely ensnared by the devils. This however makes them teach the false doctrine with utter conviction, hence we need to be the more careful not to fall for the deception, ultimately orchestrated by Satan himself.
Remember in 2 Thes 2:10-11 the Lord even states that He will send a strong delusion to those people that did not welcome the truth, the scripture says that the consequence of God sending them a strong delusion is that they will believe the lie.

"And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved. And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie:" (2 Thes 2:10-11)

Therefore whether these wolves, these false 'ministers' are consciously aware of their destructive false teachings and their leading astray multitudes or whether they are so deceived themselves that they are not consciously aware, the Bible tells us very clearly to stay away from these people, to not partner with them, to not encourage them by giving them donations or buying their products and to not partake of their sins! Here are some clear instructions to stay away from them in scripture:
