REPENT OR PERISH

SERIES: Day 5
But there were also false prophets among the people, even as there will be false teachers among you, who will secretly bring in destructive heresies, even denying the Lord who bought them, and bring on themselves swift destruction.
-II Peter 2:1 | NKJV
Jesus Christ being so good, He has chosen Ministers to be His ambassadors so they can be in the gap and do His ministry of seeking for the lost. God didn’t choose you to be prosperous. God didn’t choose you to be famous. God didn’t choose you to be rich. God didn’t choose you to be wealthy. God didn’t choose you to ride in luxurious cars. God didn’t choose you to open secular businesses as a Minister. God didn’t choose you to sleep with your congregation. God didn’t choose you to be selfish but to be selfless. All the five-fold ministry is all about soul-winning. All the five-fold ministry is all about the preaching and teaching of the Gospel, that sums up righteousness, holiness, and sanctification.
All the five-fold ministry is all about eternal life. But many Ministers of God have missed the real reason God chose them. Some are following after money and not the spiritual riches of the church. They adulterate the Word of God so the congregation can pay more tithes and offerings. They adulterate the Word of God because they think that when the hard truths are preached and taught they will lose the congregation. You are not the one who can gather more souls for God. God knows His sheep already and His sheep also knows Him. You can’t add up to what God already have. Because of their selfish interests, they have become false Ministers, professing to be godly, but denying the power of the Holy Spirit that leads to Godliness.
Some Ministers started well in ministry but as time went on, they have wandered from the path of eternal life into the path of Mammon. They teach that once saved is forever saved and no amount of sin you commit, can condemn you into eternal damnation. False Ministers teach you how to speak in tongues making you believe that the manifestation of the Holy Spirit in you is only as a result of tongue speaking. To verify whether you have the Holy Spirit in you, please check Galatians 5:22-23, whether you bear all the nine fruits of the Holy Spirit in you. You cannot have the Holy Spirit in you and still sin or still have some of the works of the flesh in you. That’s impossible (1 John 3:9).
For many of the Ministers who were not chosen by God but came to do ministry by their self-will, have spoilt the church. Some are occultists! Some are Illuminatis! Some join secret societies! Some use evil powers to do miracles! They may present themselves as True Ministers but deep inside of them they know they are false. If you follow such a false Minister, don’t say you don’t know because you will perish in the lake of fire for your ignorance (Hosea 4:6). God will not consider you just because you were lacking such a knowledge about the false Minister(s) you were following. It is better to act fast and pray for such false Minister(s) you follow to be exposed earlier before you perish.
•| Prayer Diary |•
Lift up prayers for every Minister you follow to be exposed if he or she is a false Minister, and every spiritual tie or connection you have with them to be broken in the name of Jesus Christ.
Quote
A false Minister is a Speaker of the Word of God and not a doer.
