False Prophets, false teachers and false believers!

 People who don't understand, that righteousness of God comes through Jesus Christ, will slander and falsely accuse those who preach righteousness. Noah, was a preacher of righteousness. If there had been any YouTube in that day I'm sure certain people who oppose the Kingdom of God would make videos misusing scriptures like Ephesians 5:11, 1 Timothy 5:20 and Matthew 18:15-17 to exploit Noah and "warn" people that they are "concerned"  for Noah because he claimed to hear from God. I can see the video now going viral, "Noah claims to have heard from God that it is going to rain. He is building an ark to try and get you to go with him, but don't believe him, he is trying to lead you astray." And can you imagine what they would say after Noah was sealed in the ark and came out to later get drunk and be found naked by his own sons? How many you tubers would see this as an opportunity to tell people to watch out for this "false teacher". Like I said Noah was a preacher of righteousness. People who know the righteousness of God through Christ Jesus understand that no one who teachers righteousness claims "they" are perfect in themselves. When Jesus says in Matthew 5:48, "Be perfect even as your heavenly Father is perfect." He wasn't telling us to be perfect "like" him. He was telling us to be perfect "in" him. Perfection in the Greek (teleioi) means complete. No one can complete themselves. We are only made complete in Christ Jesus. Yet, people are still looking for ways to complete themselves all the time.  1 Corinthians 13:10-12 tells us, "but when completion comes, (some versions say, 'when perfection comes') what is in part disappears. When I was a child, I talked like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I became a man, I put the ways of childhood behind me. For now we see only a reflection as in a mirror; then we shall see face to face. Now I know in part; then I shall know fully, even as I am fully known." 

There are people who have not put away childish things who still try and reason like a child. It's almost as if these people who preach against other pastors and members of the body of Christ are trying to convince people that Jesus doesn't really save, that Jesus doesn't really heal, that he doesn't actually take anyone from the dominion of darkness and transfer them into the Kingdom of the Son God loves. It is almost like these slanderers don't believe Jesus actually transforms lives. Are these pastors leading people to Jesus and the finished works of the cross? Are they acknowledging that Jesus Christ is the Word of God in the flesh? Are they teaching the Kingdom of God or are they using their platform to accuse other believers and lead people away from the teaching of righteousness? Fruitless works of darkness do not include the preaching of Jesus Christ. I have heard many people come against those who preach Jesus and righteousness and the Kingdom of God, yet the ones who come against them aren't preaching the Gospel. The Gospel is that Jesus paid the highest price to save and redeem you. It seems to me when people truly believe that Jesus does fully save us, then the people who are literally participating in fruitless works of darkness begin to try and expose the people genuinely becoming who the Word of God says they are in Christ Jesus. People give themselves away when they begin to publicly slander other people whom God is using to proclaim freedom in Christ Jesus. A rebuke is not the same thing as slander. A rebuke is a warning. A rebuke is done privately. Slander is a part of your old nature. Colossians 3 says to put slander to death. Slander damages the reputation of a person. But in the case of a preacher, when someone slanders another preacher it does not necessarily damage the reputation of that preacher. Sadly, it destroys the reputation of the One they are preaching about. Whom is Jesus. People don't get closer to Jesus when you slander someone who preaches the Gospel, they actually get filled with doubt and confusion, which is of the anti-christ spirit. So I have to ask, what is the real motive of these you tubers who are just watching for other preachers to stumble? Isn't that what the Pharisees did to Jesus? And oh how righteous they must have felt when they "caught" him for blasphemy!!!

 A rebuke is what Jesus did to Peter in Matthew 16:23. Jesus turned and said to Peter, "Get behind me, Satan! You are a stumbling block to me; you do not have in mind the concerns of God, but merely human concerns." Jesus did not go blasting Peter to everyone else, "warning" them about Peter. Jesus called Peter out right there and told all of his disciples, "Whoever wants to be my disciple must deny themselves and take up their cross to follow me. For whoever wants to save their own life will lose it, but whoever loses their life for my sake will find it." You can try and save your own life and get mad all you want at the people who have given their life to Christ and are freely living for his great name and not their own. If you believe you are saved by your own good works then it must be so easy for you to to preach condemnation because your salvation is not from faith. But true faith works by Love. God is Love. And no one can know God if they don't first come to know Jesus. Jesus is the manifest Word of God. There is no other way to the Father except through Jesus. And if someone is preaching condemnation and not the New Creation then they are not in Christ. Jesus didn't come to condemn, he came to give life. Therefore, now, there is no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus. Stop preaching "JESUS SAVES" if you don't even believe that he has the power to save anyone. Look at Luke 11:52, "Woe to you experts in the law, because you have taken away the key to knowledge, you yourself have not entered and you are hindering those who were entering." The only way to enter is through the blood of Jesus. Which is the life of Jesus. The life of every creature is in the blood. The blood of Jesus makes you a NEW CREATION. Some people study scriptures diligently because they think that in them they have eternal life but refuse the new life given to them that comes through Christ Jesus. If you refuse him, if you deny him, you will grieve the Holy Spirit. the Bible says, "Do not grieve the Hoy Spirit of God in whom you were sealed for the day of redemption. Get rid of all bitterness, rage, and anger, brawling and SLANDER, along with every form of malice."  Whenever you are born again and come to know truth you recognize the Spirit of the Lord. 1 Corinthians 6:17, "But whoever is united with the Lord is one with him in spirit. People who are saved know Gods voice, the sheep know the Shepherds voice and the voice of a stranger they will not follow. But those who don't yet know the voice of the Lord are caused to stumble by these false prophets in sheep's clothing, trying to tear other people apart pretending it's for your benefit. Doubt is not for your benefit. Confusion is not for your benefit. Slander is not protecting you from anyone. Is slander what you consider fruit? Is false humility fruit? Is hostility what you call fruit? Is unforgiveness fruit? Is division fruit? NO!!! It's not fruit. Remaining dead in your sin and preaching against the righteousness of God that comes through Christ Jesus is honestly causing little ones to stumble. And we know what the Bible says about you if you should cause one of his little ones to stumble. A rebuke should never be at the expense of truth. To preach against becoming a new creation in Christ Jesus, to preach that old things don't truly pass away, to preach unrighteousness and the kingdom of darkness, to slander and to preach unbelief is the opposite of the very Word of God! Repent and believe the Word of God. Read your Bible to know Jesus instead of looking for scriptures to back up your justification to stay in sin. Stop reading scriptures to have something to hold over someone else's head. Read your Bible and pray to know Jesus, believe the Word of God. Deny yourself, pick up your cross and follow him. Allow him to give you new life that only comes from him. People will mock you along the way, just like they did Jesus. Deny yourself anyway! Know Jesus, know truth and get free!!!!!!! Your life depends on it!!
