Are there Satanists in our Pulpits?
(Joel Osteen, Rob Bell and Rick Warren's "Gospel of LOVE and TOLERANCE")
"The fashion now is to tolerate anything lest we gain a reputation of being intolerant. The tender-minded saints cannot bear to see Agag slain (I Samuel 15), so they chose rather to sacrifice the health of the Church for years to come by sparing error and evil; and this they do in the name of Christian love.
We are under obligation to disturb all seats of wickedness, and where this is done out of sincere love for God and men, great good is bound to follow. No true work of God will suffer from the prayerful examination of Spirit-filled men. Timidity masquerading as love has allowed unscriptural practices to persist in many a church till they have slowly smothered the life out of it and brought it to desolation.
We must not be afraid to inquire. The difficulty, of course, is to do this in a Christian spirit. It is hard to find fault without being a faultfinder or to criticize without being censorious. But we have it to do if we hope to keep the work of God pure in a day of iniquity." -A.W Tozer-
OFF QUOTE:
It is interesting to note that A. W. Tozer, in writing 'The Price of Neglect' made this observation (over 50 years ago) as mainline denominations were abandoning their stewardship of the unfathomable riches of the Word of God (The seed of rebellion that we are reaping a harvest from today) (I Corinthians 4:1). Now, with this seed in full fruition, we see today's evangelical church entering into much greater apostasy. Are we not timidly adopting humanistic doctrine, sin-increasing "grace & love" teachings, greed and prosperity false teachers, homosexual clergy/churches while denying the power, authority, holiness, righteousness and majesty of the God of creation and eternity when we endeavor to make the Word of God "relevant" to our age? Most of the above items became so rampant in our "Christian" circles because of our timidity in not wanting to offend...so we allowed them. All in the name of "tolerance". Now that these practices are allowed and accepted; they are growing like
gangrene and cutting off all circulation from Christ to the modern church.
People are literally dying on the vine.
The modern church has become a seed that has fallen upon a rock...and died.
Through "timidity and tolerance" this condition came: Now in destruction and apostasy it stays...while wallowing in a death they call "love".
Through "love" (of sin) the apostates came.
Now, through apostasy and mass spiritual-abortions at the altar they stay.
Through viewing God and scripture as irrelevant they came...
Now, through apostasy it is THEY who will ironically be the irrelevant ones when they stand before Christ in Judgment. Matthew 7:21-23
The Word of Christ is VERY relevant even NOW...but it will be even more relevant when it's spoken in literal fashion, by the very author Himself at the Judgment Seat.
Is not He and His Holy Word "relevant" because He is God? Lord, forgive us! The word of man has sought to make the Word of God irrelevant in place of it's own so-called relevance.
The Word of God and the command from our Lord to take the narrow way by bearing our cross, mandates an unapologetic adherence to God's "very relevant" Word. While our Christian duty and preference is to take His truth to the unbelieving world: I propose, in light of the mass apostasy among us believers, we must incorporate a thrust of truth to an unbelieving church, caught up in the high-sounding call for "tolerance." Which is just a fancy word for: "The love of sin". That is; rebellion and refusal to give up one's sin by cross bearing and narrow gate-taking Discipleship. Tolerance today, unfortunately even in the church, (especially in the church!) means affirming ALL views as equally legitimate, demoting God's truth to one of many. This we cannot and will not do. This spirit is the spirit of antichrist. And adapting its thought process and embracing its principles is paving the way for the One World Religion which will incorporate the Mark of the Beast and the embodiment of Satan
himself: Antichrist.
God's Truth can never "coexist" with unrighteousness. Either you're promoting Truth (while being called intolerant) or you're rolling out the red carpet for antichrist by promoting "another gospel" called the tolerant gospel. Which is just a gospel propagated by Laodicean-cowards who refuse to suffer anything for Christ. They choose the onslaught of the True Christianity to pacify themselves while everyone around them is allowed to "tolerantly" slip into hell. And to think, this "tolerant" gospel is so often referred to as "the gospel of Love". What kind of love is this? Is it love that allows his fellow man to run head-long into sure destruction?
The "gospel of love" is the GOSPEL OF HATE.
The "gospel of love" is the REAL HATE CRIME.
The "gospel of love" has sold more tickets to hell than Marilyn Manson, Anton LaVey and Aleister Crowley combined. At least these three Satanists never promised a free ride to heaven while adhering to their ideologies...unlike the master counterfeiters; Osteen, Bell and Warren. Satan comes as an 'angel of light' (2 Corinthians 11:14)...Will the REAL Satanists please stand up? (Speaking of tolerance...there will be more tolerance for Sodom and Gomorrah on the day of judgment than for these men). Matthew 10:15
When will the church catch on...when will the church WAKE UP? Just because someone smiles and has an eloquently-up-beat, positive way of enunciating his words doesn't mean everything he says is automatically equated with God. Just because someone stands behind a pulpit, in a building referred to as a church, with a Bible neatly tucked under his arm...doesn't mean ANYTHING if what he says cannot be confirmed with scripture or the testimony of church history (no matter how good or 'positive' his message makes you feel).
Let me put it to you this way: Satan comes as a happy, jovial, positive talking, magnetically-engaging, positive thinking angel of light whose sole intent is to make you have a positive, successful and 'happy' outlook on life ...while you slip headlong into hell. Satan is a master orator and 'positive' motivator that puts Zig Ziglar to shame. While using his meat-puppets like Osteen, Bell and Warren; he incorporates the Word of God by way of "implication"...NOT by way of teaching. Satan ALWAYS implies the Bible in what he says as a method by which to gain admittance, trust and passivity. This is the bait on the hook to get ignorantly minded Evangelical Christians who look on the outward appearance alone, to bite upon his hook of seduction and lying deceit. This is why the Bible isn't taught in these churches...it's merely implied. The implication comes by way of obligation. You get a 45 min motivational speech with a scripture or two flippantly referenced for obligatory purposes only.
To make it appear "God" qualifies the deceit they are passing off as Truth and to put the audience at ease in a state of passive trust and comfort...they quote an out of context scripture to mask the minds of the hearers with a veil of seduction. This is the same method a pervert uses when he gives a child candy to lure them into his trap. Satan is the master perverter...he is a spiritual-pedophile who has an insatiable taste for the Children of God. Using this method, (through false teachers) he lures Church-goers into his trap with a sugarcoated "gospel" that was birthed in hell itself-------and how do people respond? They flock to the teachers where this "gospel of love" is taught week in and week out...like sheep led to the slaughter.
When will the church wake up? When will they realize these false teachers are spiritual-perverts who are being puppeteered by the master hand of Satan himself?
Satan doesn't come with blood-dripping fangs, horns, a tail and a pitch fork...he comes with a magnetic personality, bible, pulpit and an attractive toothy grin.
Satan doesn't come with billowing smoke, virgin sacrifices and goat-leggings...he comes with 3 points and a poem on how to be a better YOU.
Satan doesn't come wearing a shirt that says: "I am Satan who has come to destroy you"-------------He comes wearing a "Christian" shirt that says: "God is Love"...(so do as thou wilt).------------(THEN he has free reign to destroy without anyone even noticing).
Counterfeit Christianity is the inside job of Satan. It is set on destroying any hope anyone would ever have of coming in contact with the True Church of Christ. It makes people think they have already come in contact with the real thing...giving them no reason to search any further. This is what makes the counterfeit church of Satan so damndable...the thing they lack (salvation) is the very thing they are under the impression they already have. Satan is seeking to bastardize Christianity through his minions that people refer to as pastors, teachers, prophets, evangelists and best selling authors. This is the conspiracy of the ages...and people are going to hell because of it. (If only people would believe what scripture says as opposed to the spiritual-hijackers they esteem so highly).
Conclusion:
Lets be honest: when we withhold the Truth of God's word, it has NOTHING to do with how it makes others feel. We could care less about other people's feelings. Who are we kidding! We care ONLY for our own feelings. We withhold His Truth because WE want to be popular, accepted and we REFUSE to suffer ANY of the persecution True Christianity promises we WILL have.
"If the world hates you, know that it has hated me before it hated you. If you were of the world, the world would LOVE you as its own; but because you are not of the world; (because I chose you out of the world) the world hates you. Remember the word that I said to you: ‘A servant is not greater than his master.’ If they persecuted me, they WILL also persecute you". John 15:18-20
A Christian who is loved, adored and accepted by the entirety of the world is no Christian at all (See how the world adores Joel Osteen, Pope Francis, Rob Bell and Rick Warren). At best, a person such as this, is a lukewarm, backslidden, apostatized wreck who his headed for shame, rejection and denial by Christ at the Judgment Seat. The "gospel of love" is the seedlings cast on the fertile ground of Satan's soil. Satan's cohorts, his false teachers, are his slaves who water and perpetuate the growth of apostasy that springs forth from this soil. BEHOLD THE TOLERANT GOSPEL OF "LOVE": For THIS is what it REALLY is...THIS is where it REALLY leads.
Where withholding of the Truth is concerned: tolerance is just a fancy word for "I refuse to suffer ANYTHING for Christ". This attitude SCREAMS that "Christ is simply not worth suffering for". That it (my salvation) "cost Him EVERYTHING...but it's gonna cost me NOTHING." In a word, the spirit behind this blatantly declares: "Jesus, you are simply worthless and not worth any trouble, whatsoever". So, you distance yourself from Him in shame. And with Peter you deny Him as to avoid being labeled a Christ follower; in the hopes to save your own hide from persecution. Yes, to the "tolerant" Christian, Christ is a bothersome, nuisance.
If the tolerant gospel of "Love" has ANY love in it at all...it's love for SELF and the SIN that perpetuates and springs from SELF. And this SELF that is esteemed so highly, as the very thing that's sustaining your life, is actually the very thing that's causing you to lose it. WAKE UP. We have Satanists in our pulpits who are damning your friends, family and loved ones to hell...while they reward them with a standing ovation, tithes and round of applause. Does anyone even care? Or are we too afraid we'll offend them if we tell them the truth?
Cursed is the coward who withholds Truth to avoid persecution and offence while acting as an accomplice to enable souls to slip into an eternal hell.
Eternity...we must ponder its vast implications. With that thought in mind, I leave you now with a quote from James Joyce in reference to eternity:
"What must it be, then, to bear the manifold tortures of hell forever?
Forever!
For all eternity!
Not for a year or an age but... forever.
Try to imagine the awful meaning of this. You have often seen the sand on the seashore. How fine are its tiny grains! And how many of those tiny grains go to make up the small handful which a child grasps in its play. Now imagine a mountain of that sand, a million miles high, reaching from the earth to the farthest heavens, and a million miles broad, extending to remotest space, and a million miles in thickness, and imagine such an enormous mass of countless particles of sand multiplied as often as there are leaves in the forest, drops of water in the mighty ocean, feathers on birds, scales on fish, hairs on animals, atoms in the vast expanse of air. And imagine that at the end of every million years a little bird came to that mountain and carried away in its beak a tiny grain of that sand. How many millions upon millions of centuries would pass before that bird had carried away even a square foot of that mountain, how many eons upon eons of ages before it had carried away all. Yet at
the end of that immense stretch time not even one instant of eternity could be said to have ended. At the end of all those billions and trillions of years eternity would have scarcely begun. And if that mountain rose again after it had been carried all away again grain by grain, and if it so rose and sank as many times as there are stars in the sky, atoms in the air, drops of water in the sea, leaves on the trees, feathers upon birds, scales upon fish, hairs upon animals – at the end of all those innumerable risings and sinkings of that immeasurably vast mountain not even one single instant of eternity could be said to have ended; even then, at the end of such a period, after that eon of time, the mere thought of which makes our very brain reel dizzily...eternity would have scarcely begun.”
OFF QUOTE:
May the vast implications of eternity be etched and forever burnt on our soul when cowardice and 'tolerance' present themselves as a reason to withhold Truth. There is NEVER a good reason to perpetuate someone's 'tolerant' proclivity toward hell...no matter what Joel Osteen, Rick Warren or Rob Bell's smiling faces say. It is by the "gospel of hate", cowardice and refusal to accept the persecution that comes with Authentic Christianity, that one is tolerantly nudged off the precipice of time. This modern church has blood on its hands. May the Lord enact vengeance if they don't repent.
