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

Signs And Wonders Should Be According To Biblical Pattern

God's blessings shall be following you continually for taking the time to study. Signs And Wonders Should Be According To Biblical Pattern Text: Mark 16: 17 – 20 Wednesday May 8th Key verse: Obadiah 17 “Upon mount Zion shall be deliverance, and there shall be holiness and the house of Jacob shall possess their possessions.” God has prepared to direct us on holy service unto Himself. He tells us when the lives and services of people are corrupt because from the heart of men proceed the works they do. When people are righteous and holy, their service is also righteous and holy. Hence, the word says, make the people holy then their service will be holy, so if you accept to live a life of holiness, then the fruit of your service will be holy. So, it is very important to accept the life of holiness because the God that made you is holy; He will give you grace to be holy. You just make up your mind to be holy. Do not accept that no man can be holy; then Jesus came for nothing, Jes...

God’s Extra Effort In Restoring The Backslider

God's blessings shall be following you continually for taking the time to study. God’s Extra Effort In Restoring The Backslider  Sunday May 12th Text: Jeremiah 3: 15 – 17 Key verse: Ezekiel 33: 11 Say unto them, As I live, saith the Lord God, I have no pleasure in the death of the wicked; but that the wicked turn from his way and live: turn ye, turn ye from your evil ways; for why will ye die, O house of Israel.  Receive the word that will change you, restore you, reestablish you and give you back the hope of eternal life. Come back! The Lord is pleading. Can you see the effort of God in your life? And can you see madness in your life; resisting every effort God is making. God is calling you. Retrace your ways. Follow the good old way. Go and confess those things, do not keep them. Your problem is, you want to serve God but you have not confessed your sins openly because of shame, fear and  pride which shall be dissolved in hell. That is where your problem is. Yes, you wa...
