DOCTRINE OF CHRIST or Doctrine of Devils?
We must never forget that the devil, aka Satan transformed himself into
an angel of light (2 Corinthians 11:14); and there are churches masquerading as
houses of God. These churches have signs and ensigns which range from a single
eye, obelisks, pyramids, black and white checkered floors and other known
representations that are readily seen today in church publications, online live
media, and on the inside and outside of buildings. For this reason, the Holy
Scriptures warned: “Keep thy foot when thou goest to the house of God, and be
more ready to hear, than to give the sacrifice of fools: for they consider not
that they do evil” (Ecclesiastes 5:1).
“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” (1 Timothy 4:1-2).
When King Jesus was here on this earth he was asked about his doctrine.
“Jesus answered them, and said, ‘[MY DOCTRINE IS NOT MINE, BUT HIS THAT SENT ME]. If any man will do his will, he shall know of the doctrine, whether it be of God, or whether I speak of myself. He that speaketh of himself seeketh his own glory: but he that seeketh his glory that sent him, the same is true, and no unrighteousness is in him’” (John 7:16-18).
“Whosoever transgresseth, and abideth not in the doctrine of Christ, hath not God. [HE THAT ABIDETH IN THE DOCTRINE OF CHRIST, HE HATH BOTH THE FATHER AND THE SON]” (2 John 1:9).
Paul, the apostle to the Gentiles who preached the GOSPEL OF CHRIST said: “And my speech and my preaching was not with enticing words of man’s wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power: [THAT YOUR FAITH SHOULD NOT STAND IN THE WISDOM OF MEN, BUT IN THE POWER OF GOD]” (1 Corinthians 2:4-5).
“For I am not ashamed of the [GOSPEL OF CHRIST]: for [IT IS THE POWER OF GOD UNTO SALVATION TO EVERYONE THAT BELIEVETH]; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek” (Romans 1:16).
“For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is the [POWER OF GOD]” (1 Corinthians 1:19).
“But if our gospel be hid, it is hid to them that are lost:
In whom the god of this world hath blinded the minds of them which
believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image
of God, should shine unto them.
[FOR WE PREACH NOT OURSELVES, BUT CHRIST JESUS THE LORD; AND OURSELVES
YOUR SERVANTS FOR JESUS’ SAKE].
[FOR GOD, WHO COMMANDED THE LIGHT TO SHINE OUT OF DARKNESS], hath shined
in our hearts, [TO GIVE THE LIGHT OF THE KNOWLEDGE OF THE GLORY OF GOD IN THE
FACE OF JESUS CHRIST]” (2 Corinthians 4:3-6).
“The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all. Amen” (2
Thessalonians 3:18).
