BEWARE OF SEDUCING SPIRITS
AND DOCTRINES OF DEVILS
Brother James, OIC
1 Timothy 4:1-3
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; Speaking lies in hypocrisy; having their conscience seared with a hot iron;Forbidding to marry, and commanding to abstain from meats, which God hath created to be received with thanksgiving of them which believe and know the truth.
Brethren how deep this scripture goes in its meanings and warning is more than I have attained to yet what I do know is this: We are in the "latter times" spoken about above. And the Holy Spirit is crying out that we must beware of Satan's seducing spirits and the false doctrines his demons (devils) use to divide us from the Truth of Gods Word. So in this teaching I'd like for you to walk with me through scripture and learn the many warnings and descriptions of what we are up against in this end time spiritual battle.
The first thing we must remember is that there is a way that seems right to man, it seems to produce life, it appears to be a successful end to its means, when in reality it isn't, it produces death. False Doctrine is an easy road to travel while the way of Truth is narrow and difficult. The way of Truth is difficult for us because we are creatures that think we must solve our own problems wherein the Way of Truth is about Jesus Christ and Faith, which is the work of God and Trust, which is the result of True Faith in what He has already done for us. The Way of Truth is about helping others grow in Faith. It will not appeal to our senses but will speak to our hearts causing us to grow by Grace through Faith until Christ (the Wisdom, Power and Anointing of God) is formed, in maturity, within us.
Proverbs 16:25
There is a way that seemeth right unto a man, but the end thereof are the ways of death.
Matthew 7:13-15
Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat:Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it.
Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves.
Its Satan and his army of demons that want us to follow their dead end detours that lead to death. Their names alone hold meaning of their evil intent. Satan as we know means Adversary. It is his spirit that is in all anti-Christs. Anti Christs are evil spirits who are against what Jesus did for us through His Blood. They are against His Power and Anointing which are Gods Work inside us from being formed through The Rightly Divided Truth of Gods Word. Satans strategic mission for his demons and ministers is to detour us into following the false solutions that he has given to the world. The title Devil means one that gets in between to divide. Its Satans Nature to divide as many people God has called to Christ from the Truth of Gods Word that can make them Free. Demons are from a Latin root DA that means Knowledge. It is their job to appeal to the intellect of man and make their false solutions and teachings appear right to those who will spend eternity with Satan in the Lake of Fire.
Satans name before he was cast out of heaven was Lucifer which meant Light Bearer and today he uses a false light as a beacon to guide those lost closer to him and this is done only through the false doctrines that offer the false solutions that lead to death.
2 Corinthians 11:13-15
For such are false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming themselves into the apostles of Christ.And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light.Therefore it is no great thing if his ministers also be transformed as the ministers of righteousness; whose end shall be according to their works.
The most popular religion in the U.S. today are the 12 Step Religions. Alcoholic Anonymous founder Bill Wilson who wrote the 12 Steps was not a follower of Jesus Christ but into mysticism and necromancy. Yet Churches have allowed AA,NA to darken its halls and operate within its doors. Worse now is that many are diverted off the path of righteousness which is only found in the Faith of Jesus Christ to this psycho babble and much worse now it is being used to leaven scripture. The 12 Steps he wrote is based on a religion of works rather than the spiritual path of of Grace and Faith. And subtly denounces the fact that it is God that calls us to Jesus and that it is Jesus that reveals the Father.
Luke 10:22
All things are delivered to me of my Father: and no man knoweth who the Son is, but the Father; and who the Father is, but the Son, and he to whom the Son will reveal him.
We have a responsibility to our own growth to "work out our salvations with fear and trembling." To "Study to show ourselves approved unto God as those who need not be ashamed rightly dividing the Word of Truth." And Jesus warns us:
Mark 4:24
And he said unto them, Take heed what ye hear: with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you: and unto you that hear shall more be given.
Matthew 16:11-12
How is it that ye do not understand that I spake it not to you concerning bread, that ye should beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and of the Sadducees? Then they understood how that he bade them not beware of the leaven of bread, but of the doctrine of the Pharisees and of the Sadducees.
Demons have infiltrated our Church Buildings with their leaven and the Body in these Modern Religions are taking in these False Doctrines as if they were given by God:
2 Timothy 4:2-4
For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears;And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables.
Satan always appears as an angel of light, his ministers as ministers of righteousness. The word angel means messenger. He appeared first to Eve in the Garden of Eden as a Beautiful Serpent.
Genesis 3:1-7
Now the serpent was more subtle than any beast of the field which the LORD God had made. And he said unto the woman, Yea, hath God said, Ye shall not eat of every tree of the garden? And the woman said unto the serpent, We may eat of the fruit of the trees of the garden: But of the fruit of the tree which is in the midst of the garden, God hath said, Ye shall not eat of it, neither shall ye touch it, lest ye die.And the serpent said unto the woman, Ye shall not surely die:For God doth know that in the day ye eat thereof, then your eyes shall be opened, and ye shall be as gods, knowing good and evil.And when the woman saw that the tree was good for food, and that it was pleasant to the eyes, and a tree to be desired to make one wise, she took of the fruit thereof, and did eat, and gave also unto her husband with her; and he did eat.And the eyes of them both were opened, and they knew that they were naked; and they sewed fig leaves together, and made themselves aprons.
The Tree that Satan the Serpent tempted Eve to eat of was the Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil. Once her and Adams eyes were opened to this Knowledge darkness enveloped them in a False Light in a Fallen and Separated state from God. The problem today is many still operate in this Knowledge not realizing their own Knowledge of Good is as much a Fallen State as is their Knowledge of Evil. God spoke this to me years back"
"There is a goodness in the world that cheats its possessor out of True Knowledge of God and True Faith of Jesus Christ. And its easier for an evil man to repent from his wickedness than for a good man to repent from his goodness. Many repent from their fallen state of evil to the fallen state of goodness"
Sin entered the world through this False and Fallen Knowledge and sin is "Missing the Mark of God." So we discover now one of our worst enemies is our opposing ourselves by trying to repent from our Knowledge of Evil to our Knowledge of Good not understanding we sin as much out of our Fallen Goodness as Evil. Truth is the only thing that make us free.
John 8:31-32
Then said Jesus to those Jews which believed on him, If ye continue in my word, then are ye my disciples indeed; And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.
2 Timothy 2:24-26
And the servant of the Lord must not strive; but be gentle unto all men, apt to teach, patient,In meekness instructing those that oppose themselves; if God peradventure will give them repentance to the acknowledging of the truth; And that they may recover themselves out of the snare of the devil, who are taken captive by him at his will.
Repentance has for years been taught as turning from ones sin. Something man has never been able to do when in Truth repentance is turning to Truth that will make one free.
Satan is a liar and the Father of lies. He Gifts Wraps lies slithers them into scripture and hypnotizes people into believing they are Truth when in fact they are seeds of death.
Today Study the New Testament with an open heart asking God to reveal and give you understanding of His Truth then you will know True Freedom with the understanding the things you then go through will make you a partaker of Christ, Gods Glory.
