They pretend to be God
They pretend to speak truth
They pretend to lead you to goodness,
instead they are deceivers
They lead away from God and toward themselves
They seek the glory
If you survey several preachers, you will find them
They point to themselves and not to Jesus
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 Timothy 4:1
In the past few months, I have found men
proclaiming that they hear from a specific angel that does miracles for them
They say they have a special relationship with the Holy Spirit
who gives the angel power
We are not to worship angels or any thing,
any graven image or any being
even one that claims to be sent by Jesus
It would be impossible to list every way the enemy might try to deceive us
The bottom line is if the being is worshiped in place of Jesus,
whether it is a person, man or woman or any angel
or any other type of being,
we can be sure it is not of God
no matter how many miracles it can perform
For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets,
and shall shew great signs and wonders;
insomuch that, if it were possible,
they shall deceive the very elect. Matthew 24:24
As the days go on and we get deeper into
These End Times that Jesus warned us about,
Keeping Jesus as the preeminence and following Him is our only surety
And he is the head of the body, the church:
who is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead;
that in all things he might have the preeminence. Colossians 1:18
From 2 Corinthians 11
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. v4
For such are false apostles, deceitful workers,
transforming themselves into the apostles of Christ. v 12
And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light. v 13
Follow Christ and Christ alone, otherwise you risk being led astray
Test all things, don’t depend on a human to teach you
Prove all things; hold fast that which is good. 1 Thessalonians 5:21
Learn and know the Word of God so that deception is easily recognized
Keeping Jesus always at the forefront of your walk
He will never lead you astray
