THE PROBLEM OF FALSE TEACHERS IN CHRIST'S CHURCH

God's blessings shall follow you for taking the time to study.

TOPIC: THE PROBLEM OF FALSE TEACHERS IN CHRIST'S CHURCH 

TEXT: 1 TIMOTHY 4:15, 16 

THURSDAY DECEMBER 14TH

Key verse: 2 Corinthians 5:17 `Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new.”
Many people have not understood what it takes to be a real Christian. To some to be a Christian is to be baptized with water. To others, it is to change the church. I asked someone whether he was born again. He told me he was. What he meant was that he had been baptized with water. Many people profess to be Christians but are sinners. Many are blinded by the spirit of the last days. There are people who have replaced cardinal doctrines of the Scripture with lies, yet obedience to these doctrines is essential for heaven. What shall be the end of those who replace the truth with lies? 
Some teach that if you are baptized with water you are born again. Unlearned and ignorant preachers wrest the word of God and dilute it until it has no more effect on those who hear it. There are prosperity preachers who replace God with His blessings. They teach and stir people to receive the blessings of God but have nothing to tell them on how to please God and conform to the image of Christ. Because of material blessings, preachers prohibit their members from going to where they will learn the truth about God for fear that they may escape from their hands.
Christ imparts the holiness of God to the believer and enables him to live a new way of life. A child of God does not lie, lust, steal, commit immorality. The life of God in him is a life of holiness and righteousness. Many people have spotted the garment of righteousness given to them with worldliness, false doctrines, greed, pride, etc. Psalm 119: 30 "I have chosen the way of truth.” This means there is a way of error or falsehood. It takes determination to choose the way of truth, righteousness, and holiness. Many churches are founded on distorted scriptures. Through false interpretations of scriptures, their preachers and teachers replace Christ's truths with lies, to their destruction and the destruction of those who hear them. Except they repent and return to the truth they are on their way to hell. 

Thought for the day: Beware of false doctrines and false teachers. 

Song for the day: Onward Christian soldiers

Bible reading for the day: Amos 1-3; Revelation 5

For taking your time to study remain blessed. August Tuesday 27th TOPIC: CORRECT WATER BAPTISM TEXT: Mark 16:15-16 KEY VERSE: Matthew 28:19 Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost. The believer requires water baptism. The baptism that Jesus commanded is in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost. It is done by immersion in water because the three Persons are One. In Acts of the Apostles, the people were baptizing in the name of Jesus. They used the phrase “in the name of Jesus” to indicate that the baptism was carried out as authorized by Jesus, and the baptism authorized by Jesus is that which is done in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost. It is not to say that they dip people in water and say, “I baptize you in the name of Jesus.” The name of Jesus cannot represent the Godhead. The Father is not Jesus, the Holy Spirit is not Jesus, Jesus is God who be
