BEWARE of Prosperity Preaching?
“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).
Our Lord Jesus says: “[BEWARE OF FALSE PROPHETS], which come
to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves.
Ye shall know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes of
thorns, or figs of thistles? [WHEREFORE BY THEIR FRUITS YE SHALL KNOW THEM]”
(Matthew 7:15-16, 20).
“[NO SERVANT CAN SERVE TWO MASTERS]: for either he will hate
the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the
other. [YE CANNOT SERVE GOD AND MAMMON]” (Luke 16:13).
“Then said Jesus unto his disciples, ‘[VERILY I SAY UNTO YOU,
THAT A RICH MAN SHALL HARDLY ENTER INTO THE KINGDOM OF HEAVEN]’. And again I
say unto you, It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle, than
for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God” (Matthew 19:23-24).
“BELOVED, [BELIEVE NOT EVERY SPIRIT, BUT TRY THE SPIRITS
WHETHER THEY ARE OF GOD]: because many false prophets are gone out into the
world. Hereby know ye the Spirit of God: [EVERY SPIRIT THAT CONFESSETH THAT
JESUS CHRIST IS COME IN THE FLESH IS OF GOD]: And [EVERY SPIRIT THAT CONFESSETH
NOT THAT JESUS CHRIST IS COME IN THE FLESH IS NOT OF GOD: AND THIS IS THAT
SPIRIT OF ANTICHRIST], whereof ye have heard that it should come; and even now
already is it in the world” (1 John 4:1-3).
“For many deceivers are entered into the world, who confess
not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh. This is a deceiver and an
antichrist” (2 John 1:7).
“[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]” (2 Corinthians 11:13-15).
“[TAKE HEED, AND BEWARE OF COVETOUSNESS]: for [A MAN’S LIFE
CONSISTETH NOT IN THE ABUNDANCE OF THE THINGS] which he possesseth” (Luke
12:15).
“Therefore take no thought, saying, What shall we eat? or,
What shall we drink? or, Wherewithal shall we be clothed? But seek ye first the
kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto
you” (Matthew 6:31).
In glory of the FATHER, the SON and the HOLY SPIRIT. Amen.
