Did you know that it is disobedience to believe everyone who comes in Christ’s name?
Notice the hand symbol
“Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try (test) the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world. Hereby know ye the Spirit of God: Every spirit that confesseth that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is of God: And every spirit that confesseth not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is not of God: and this is that spirit of antichrist, whereof ye have heard that it should come; and even now already is it in the world.” 1 John 4:1-3
Friends, we love Jesus Christ and His body. Get as mad as you wish when perhaps your favorite celebrity preacher is exposed and uncovered. With no desire to be divisive or controversial, we are going obey God by helping the truth and standing with the LORD Jesus Christ to bring to light the wolves who are operating using the name of the LORD in vain while devouring precious souls. It’s high time to cease being gullible and naive and begin to grow up spiritually and be exercised in the Word of God to discern truth from error.
“For such are false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming themselves into the apostles of Christ.” 2 Corinthians. 11:13
“Beloved, when I gave all diligence to write unto you of the common salvation, it was needful for me to write unto you, and exhort you that ye should earnestly contend for the faith which was once delivered unto the saints. For there are certain men crept in unawares, who were before of old ordained to this condemnation, ungodly men, turning the grace of our God into lasciviousness, and denying the only Lord God, and our Lord Jesus Christ.” Jude 3-4
Just because you like a certain leader’s personality or he tells you things you like to hear, does not make him true to God. Be it known that endorsing in any way or bidding “God speed” to a false prophet makes one the enemy of Christ and brings the same judgment upon that supporter as the deceiver is going to receive (2 Pet. 2).
“Whosoever transgresseth, and abideth not in the doctrine of Christ, hath not God. He that abideth in the doctrine of Christ, he hath both the Father and the Son. If there come any unto you, and bring not this doctrine, receive him not into your house, neither bid him God speed: For he that biddeth him God speed is partaker of his evil deeds.” 2 John 9-11
This is no small matter friend. So
