Matthew 7:21
True Disciples. (Christians)
“Not everyone who calls out to me, ‘Lord! Lord! ’ will enter the Kingdom of Heaven. Only those who actually do the will of my Father in heaven will enter.
Obedience is a nasty word to those false teachers who want the accolades of men. After all, we would want a “carnal christian” to feel uncomfortable or listen to Peter exhortation to ” BE HOLY IN ALL YOUR CONDUCT.”. When one preaches about holiness it is called Legalism. It is called, “Trying to earn your way to Heaven.” The modern false grace teaching church does not comprehend the things of God. They are spoon fed by “pastors” who make the Word of God void and meaningless. The false shepherds only repeat things other “pastors” say. They refuse or just don’t know how to study the Word in context and look things up in the original language so the can understand what the author was trying to say. Obedience to Christ’s commands out of heart of love for Him is evidence the the Holy Spirit is at work in your life.
I take joy in doing your will, my God, for your instructions are written on my heart.” (Psalms 40:8 NLT)
These False Shepherds would call Jesus a “Legalist” as well.
1 John 3:7
Little children, let no one deceive you. He who practices righteousness is righteous, just as He is righteous.
What a “Strange Doctrine” it is to actually do the things Jesus commands us.
What a “Strange Doctrine” it is for Jesus to actually say the obedience to His commands is to be our goal.
What a “Strange Doctrine” it is to say that a person who is living in sin is a “Christian.”
What a “Strange Doctrine” to repeat Peter’s words in Acts 5:32 that “God gives His Holy Spirit to THOSE WHO OBEY HIM.”
What a “Strange Doctrine” for God to say that He is angry with the Wicked everyday. Ps 7:11.
What a Strange Doctrine to actually see the Grace of God as ENABLING POWER to DO WHAT IS RIGHT, instead of just an excuse for sin.
Rebuke the false shepherds who minimize God's calling on your life to be holy.Titus 2:11-15
For the grace of God that brings salvation has appeared to all men, teaching us that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live soberly, righteously, and godly in the present age, looking for the blessed hope and glorious appearing of our great God and Savior Jesus Christ, who gave Himself for us, that He might redeem us from every lawless deed and purify for Himself His own special people, zealous for good works.Speak these things, exhort, and rebuke with all authority. Let no one despise you.
Jesus said’ “My sheep hear my voice and follow after Me.” Actually doing His commands. False shepherds would NEVER tell the flock they MUST DO THE THINGS JESUS SAID.
False Shepherds speak SMOOTH WORDS and try to make very one feel good.
Isaiah 30:10
“Don’t tell us what is right.
Tell us nice things.
Tell us lies.
Forget all this gloom.
Get off your narrow path.
Stop telling us about your
‘Holy One of Israel. ’”
(DON’T TELL US ABOUT A HOLY GOD!)
Jeremiah 12:6
Do not believe them,
Even though they speak smooth words to you.
John the Baptist and Jesus spoke differently.
