Chris Reed Resigns from Morning Star Admits Moral Failures With Young Woman — Holiness in the heart required to be overseer qualified

My comment:

The main problem is unrepentant lust of the heart, which Jesus said in Matthew 5 will send us to hell, so we have to do whatever we need to in order to not lust in our heart. Committing an act with a person is a next, deeper step. Lusting in the heart allows demons to drive lust.

Pastors teach “once saved always saved” and “only believe” instead of teaching what the Bible really says about needing to abide in Christ to have no condemnation, which we have if we walk not according to the flesh, but according to the Spirit. These are the sons of God, Paul then continues to say in Romans 8.

Look at Paul’s two lists in Galatians 5. Most “Christians” are in the “will not inherit the kingdom” list, and many don’t even care about what Romans 8, Galatians 5 and almost 90 New Testament verses actually say about who goes to heaven. They’re that lust addicted.

Paul says an overseer MUST be “HOLY” in Titus 1, which means purity of the heart, not just externally pure actions. Then we have the fruit of the Spirit in Galatians 5, after which Paul says “Those who belong to Christ have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires.” Most pastors and born-again “Christians” today are backslidden by choice, not in Paul’s “those who belong to Christ” list.

Paul soon after says: “Don’t be deceived. God is not mocked, for whatever a man sows, that he will also reap. For he who sows to his own flesh will from the flesh reap corruption. But he who sows to the Spirit will from the Spirit reap eternal life.”

It starts in the heart. Church leaders MUST be “HOLY” in their hearts to be able to lead others into real Christianity: Ephesians 4:11-16.

The Last 12 Verses of Mark in 2nd century writings — Westcott & Hort Bible verse removal theory busted!

Wescott and Hort pulled off an amazing deception 150 years ago, convincing scholars and Bible publishers to accept the Egyptian Greek manuscripts in which many words and entire verses were intentionally removed by manipulative scribes. So most of today’s Bible translations have key words missing.

Sadly, today’s scholars aren’t willing to correct this, probably because they like the deletions, since it fits with their “once saved always saved” gospel (removal of Romans 8:1B) and cessationism (these verses).

The Gideons Bible recently corrected their ESV version to add the missing verses, with permission of the ESV publishers.

Christians haven’t read the Talmud, so have no idea what’s happening to them.

It’s the Talmudic, antichrist revolutionary spirit mentioned in Romans 11 — “enemies of the gospel,” “a partial hardening… until the fullness of the Gentiles has come in.” The Talmudic goal is to destroy Christian civilization so they can rule over all Gentiles when their “messiah” is seated on his throne in the temple in Jerusalem (2 Thess. 2:1-12). No one will be able to buy or sell unless they take the mark of the beast. Many of the faithful will lose their heads.

Romans 11 is very clear:

25 For I don’t desire you to be ignorant, brothers, of this mystery, so that you won’t be wise in your own conceits, that a *PARTIAL HARDENING* HAS HAPPENED TO ISRAEL [the true Jews, not referring to land], UNTIL THE FULLNESS OF THE GENTILES has come in [real Christianity, ‘ONE’ with each other in Christ “that the world will know” – John 17 and Eph. 4:11-16], 26 and so ALL ISRAEL WILL BE SAVED [the true Jews]. Even as it is written,
“There will come out of Zion the Deliverer,
and he will turn away ungodliness from Jacob.
27 This is MY COVENANT with them,
WHEN I WILL TAKE AWAY THEIR SINS.”
28 Concerning the Good News [the gospel], THEY ARE *ENEMIES* for your sake. [E. Michael Jones’ Jewish revolutionary spirit theory]

Netanyahu’s Abortions by Bombs and Bullets is not an issue for “Pro-Life” Republicans

Netanyahu’s Abortions by Bombs and Bullets is not an issue for “Pro-Life” Republicans

Michael Hoffman

How many pregnant Palestinian women have been murdered by Israeli attacks in Gaza since last October? Answer me!

Why are the “Right to Life” Republican activists who are seeking to end abortions in the US applauding the baby butcher Netanyahu and giving him a standing ovation in Congress when his military is responsible for the abortion of many hundreds of Palestinian babies by bomb and bullet?

Given that the Palestinian people are treated as though they were sub-human, this moral question isn’t even asked. The Republican party is spiritually sick and double-minded.

GOP “Christians” have a callous and cruel, pagan-like disregard for unborn Arab babies and their mothers in Palestine.

Their “Right to Life” morality is turned on and off depending on whose babies are being aborted, and by whom. If they are American infants and the abortionists are physicians, Republican Churchianity is in an uproar. If the dead are Palestinians killed in their mother’s wombs (along with their mothers), by American-supplied bombs and bullets, they could not care less.

Truly, the Palestinians of Gaza are the least of humans in the eyes of a Right wing America that loudly professes its fidelity to Christ.

Yet Jesus said whatever you do to these, the least of my brethren, you do to me.

Deception: When grace becomes an excuse to live in sin

(twisted scriptures) John MacArthur & Phil Johnson: Take the Mark of the Beast & still go to heaven

John MacArthur also teaches the serious false doctrine of “once saved always saved.” He’s a major false teacher leading many astray, including many pastors.

This passage in Hebrews 6 is probably directly related. The Hebrews were facing martyrdom, which they could escape if they publicly renounced Christ. The writer to Hebrews plainly says this is unpardonable.

Hebrews 6:4 For concerning those who were once enlightened and tasted of the heavenly gift, and were made partakers of the Holy Spirit, 5 and tasted the good word of God and the powers of the age to come, 6 and then fell away, it is impossible to renew them again to repentance; seeing they crucify the Son of God for themselves again, and put him to open shame.

Revelation 14:

9 Another angel, a third, followed them, saying with a great voice, “If anyone worships the beast and his image, and receives a mark on his forehead, or on his hand, 10 he also will drink of the wine of the wrath of God, which is prepared unmixed in the cup of his anger. He will be tormented with fire and sulfur in the presence of the holy angels, and in the presence of the Lamb. 11 The smoke of their torment goes up forever and ever. They have no rest day and night, those who worship the beast and his image, and whoever receives the mark of his name.

We need to be ready to lose our heads. Taking the Mark is NOT an option!

John Elving writes under this video:

John MacArthur & Phil Johnson teach that by taking the Mark of the Beast you can still repent and go to heaven. The reasoning behind this is it is not an unforgivable sin. I reject this theory 100% because the bible teaches us that once you take the Mark of the beast you are sealed with the seal of satan and you will never repent.

What the Early Christians Believed About Divorce and Remarriage — Christ is not going to take a bride that is unfaithful to what He taught – David Bercot

A century ago, it was extremely rare for a non-Christian—let alone a Christian—to obtain a divorce. Today, so-called Bible-believing Christians divorce one another just as frequently as does the world. The reason is that the Church has abandoned Christ’s teaching on divorce and remarriage.

In this message, Bercot looks at the New Testament teachings on divorce and explains how those passages were applied by the early Christians.

The Affairs and Scandals of Trump’s Pastor | Paula White Documentary

In a world of faith and flashy lights, megachurches and their pastors sometimes come with mega-drama… In Pastor Paula White’s world, alleged marital affairs, bankrupting churches, and using church money to pay for plastic surgery aren’t unheard of. As a young girl who lived in a trailer and became a young married mother, she grew up to become a preacher after an affair with the associate-pastor of her church (and not before they ran off together to start their own church). She went on to lead a congregation of 22,000, became a multimillionaire, hosted a Christian TV show, owned a private jet and an 8,000 sqft. beach-front home. But no matter how high she climbed, betrayal, greed, and multiple scandals have followed Paula her entire career and three marriages. This is the scandalous story and luxurious lifestyle of Pastor Paula White.

Michael Brown: Questions About “NAR,” the Holy Spirit and Revival

PROGRESS: Michael here calls himself “Michael Brown” instead of “Dr. Michael Brown,” what Jesus said not to do (Mt. 23:1-12). Michael has been a serial offender and a bad example. “Knowledge puffs up….”

NO PROGRESS & DISINFO: Michael can’t explain why God isn’t moving powerfully in our churches today, which to me, has been obvious for decades — lack of holiness. Still, no one teaches this verse, which should be our norm, that when we’re ONE with each other in Christ “the world will know,” Jesus’ promise in John 17. Paul: “..I also practice *ALWAYS* having a CONSCIENCE VOID OF OFFENSE toward God and MEN” (Acts 24:16).

Many are calling churches “NAR,” when they are not. Michael explains.

Difference between getting the Holy Spirit during conversion and the baptism of the Holy Spirit.

Apostles still exist in this way.

The “kundalini spirit” nonsense.

By the way, I can’t leave comments under Michael’s videos, because he blocked me years ago; though, I was carefully sharing biblical truth. He’s been a serial blocker too, sadly. That’s how gatekeepers operate.

The True History of the Rapture + Dispensational Eschatology with JSlayUSA Jeremy Slayden

NOTE: I don’t necessarily agree with all of this. A lot of ground and ideas are covered! Luther was no saint himself and helped originate the false doctrine of “only believe.”

Interesting that John MacArthur supports the rebuilding of the third temple with the blasphemous animal sacrifices, which Paul warns us of in 2 Thess. 2. MacArthur also pushes hard the cessation of the gifts of the Spirit and OSAS/”once saved always saved.” He’s a major false teacher.

Michael Brown Vs Corey Minor on Speaking in Tongues

NOTE: I definitely do not support all of Michael Brown’s views and practices. Michael supports the anti-Christ, NWO, Talmudic system that’s taking us down, while having admitted that Jesus strongly rebuked the Pharisees, who were Talmudists.

Most of what he says here is good, but his idea that the apostles were speaking in Armenian in Acts 2 and not in tongues is bizarre.

Biblically speaking, tongues are mainly people’s personal prayer language in which the Holy Spirit speaks through people mysteries that “no one understands,” which builds up the speaker.

The most popular, current false teaching says it can only be an Acts-2 experience in which foreigners understand, which the rest of the texts clearly refute.

Michael Brown mentions the blessing with the spirit aspect (verses 16 and 17).

I would add that I believe a main reason that Christians are built up when praying in tongues is because tongues is often perfectly praying against evil spirits, perhaps to angels in their language, who then deal with the demons. And this may be why Paul says tongues are praying in the language of men and angels in 1 Cor. 13:1. Praying in the Spirit can set us and others FREE!

Nice ending:

Brown: “Can we both agree and say ‘Father, we want everything that You have for us in the fullness of the Spirit to glorify Jesus and nothing that’s not from You. … I pray that for you. You pray that for me. Fair enough?”

Minor: “Fair enough.”

Doug Wilson vs. Michael Brown: Are the gifts of the Spirit still in operation?

Cessationism, the idea that the gifts of the Holy Spirit ceased in 70 AD really is “entirely unscriptural.”

My response to Michael Brown’s tweet on cessationism — “People are denying that miracles still exist today because hardly any charismatics actually abide in Christ…”

Michael Brown tweeted this on X, while still everywhere calling himself “Dr.;” even though, Jesus warned against doing exactly that in Matthew 23:1-12:

Dr. Michael L. Brown
@DrMichaelLBrown
If the Lord does not return in our lifetimes, I believe that future generations will look back at the doctrine of cessationism with surprise and curiosity, wondering how anyone could deny that the Spirit was still speaking and healing and delivering on a regular basis.

My responses:

Jeff Fenske
@JeffFenske
My take: People are denying that miracles still exist today because hardly any charismatics actually abide in Christ, because of the false doctrines of “once saved only saved,” “only believe,” and “it’s hard to lose one’s salvation” [Michael Brown teaches the latter]. The fear of God is now only “reverence.” Sin is rampant, so it’s easy for the woke to mock “Christians” now.

I wonder how many charismatics still pray in tongues regularly. Most ‘Christian’ men seem to be too busy lusting, walking according to the flesh instead of the Spirit, disqualifying them from the Kingdom.

(video) Is It Sinful to Wear a Bikini At a Public Pool? — “Men lust after women and women lust to be lusted after by men”

Quotes I transcribed from the video (beneath their tweets):

“We’re not even talking about skinny jeans here. This is as easy as it can possibly get to where it would violate that standard. … That’s not legalism to obey God. … This is only a discussion that only takes place in a society that has basically chucked any concept of modesty. “

“What’s the motivation to want to wear something like that in the first place? Are we really to believe that the motivation is ‘well I think I’m glorifying God?’

The sin of a man is to want to get physical gratification out of people that you shouldn’t be. The sin of a women is to arouse interest that you shouldn’t want.”

Men lust after women and women lust to be lusted after by men.

Mike Bickle: How He Lured Women, Offering Something Nobody Else Did

Female member for six years explains his appeal to women. Narrated story from blog post in 2022.


I commented:

Joel Osteen also always smiles big. It’s a salesman confidence technique that’s faked, instead of just resting in the Holy Spirit. It can also mask their real emotions.

The others didn’t offer this, because it’s unbiblical for women to be overseers over men in the church. Mike was willing to disobey God, and be different.

1 Timothy 2:12-14 is crystal clear. How is it okay to violate scripture, rebelling against God’s design mandate and how He designed men and women to have different strengths and weakness? Rebellion is the sin of witchcraft.

“But I DON’T PERMIT a woman to teach, nor to exercise authority over a man, but to be in quietness. For [because] ADAM WAS FORMED FIRST [given a specific personality to do his big-picture tasks. Eve was then designed by God to complement man with complementary (not the same) characteristics — proven now by science], then Eve. Adam WASN’T DECEIVED, but the WOMAN, BEING DECEIVED, has fallen into disobedience….”

Timeline: Invention of the ‘Rapture’ idea

Rapture-removal is not the historic teaching of the Church. One of the more astonishing facts in the history of eschatological thought, and one that most Christians are unaware of, is that the idea of “a secret pre-tribulation, Rapture removal from the earth of the Church” is a fairly recent theory in Church history. In theological circles, it’s a “Johnny come lately.” Even the historic creeds, conspicuously, don’t mention it. In fact, it was relatively unheard of and never taught until the early 19th century, and it didn’t become widespread until the 20th century. Since then, it has spread like wildfire. But the many failed predictions of its coming have made it an embarrassment.

The Devil’s Many Tricks — How to be FREE from Lust!

Related:

LUST ‘the poison that kills the soul’ FREEDOM! My experience: How DEMONS DRIVE heterosexual and homosexual lust in ‘Christians’ — When we realize demons drive lust we can be free!

I’m offering to give $6,000 to anyone who can refute my article:
Who-Goes-To-Heaven Scriptures — Narrow is the Way | Who are the Children of God? — “There is therefore now *no condemnation* to those who are IN CHRIST Jesus, who don’t WALK according to the flesh, but ACCORDING TO THE SPIRIT”

– –

In addition to what George says, few seem to understand the DEVIL’S OTHER MAIN DECEPTION with sexually lusting.

Actual DEMONS DRIVE LUST so people think they can’t stop, because the desire to lust is constant as long as the demons are allowed to drive lust. Freedom from these lust demons requires complete rejection of willfully lusting, COLD TURKEY. Then rebuke the lust spirit(s) in Jesus’ name or pray in tongues against them, and we’re FREE!

“Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.” – James 4:7

When we’ve completely repented from lusting, the lust demons then no longer have a right to be in us to drive lust. We’ve closed the sin door that lets them in. But if we knowingly, willfully let ourselves sin again, the demon(s) have the right to reenter to addict us all over again — back into that place where we no longer abide in Christ and again cannot bear fruit. We’ve let ourselves again become prodigal.

Once we’re free from the lust demons, this place of freedom is like daylight compared to darkness — fresh air! We can relax, and are no longer driven.

Though the endorphin hits from lusting are gone too, the pleasures and false joy from sinning.

WITHDRAWALS
For serious lust addicts, it might take a few days after the demon(s) go to be able to completely relax and rest in freedom — until freedom and rest is the norm.

They say lust addictions can even rewire the brain, shrinking parts, like the self-control center. Regular lusting can also cause vitamin/mineral deficiencies. Complete normalcy could take some time.

Then we have to be ever vigilant to not let those demons come back again. We discipline ourselves to look away when we’re tempted to lust, to not open that lust door again, which gives the demon(s) the right to come back into our bodies and drive lust through thoughts and strong feelings they give us.

After having lived totally lust free, we then know what this  FREEDOM is like. The difference is COMPLETELY OBVIOUS. If we let the demon(s) back in again, it’s like being in prison all over again — which is probably the normal condition for most people today, including even most pastors, who themselves aren’t free, because they’ve bought into the lies themselves, and teach some of them, like “once saved always saved,” “only believe,” or “it’s hard to lose one’s salvation.”

Many New Testament scriptures teach that if we’re addicted to lust we can’t go to heaven.

Jesus said if we look at a woman to lust after her in our heart we’re committing adultery, and it would be better for us to lose body parts than for our entire bodies to be thrown into hell.

We need to make sure we live in Paul’s “those who belong to Christ” list in Galatians 5, to not be in serious danger.

In John 15 and 17, Jesus tells us He wants HIS JOY to be in us and OUR JOY to be FULL!

Jesus’ prayer in John 17 should be our goal as the body of Christ — that we’d be ‘ONE’ with each other in Christ “that the world will know!” We need to fulfill God’s holiness goal in Ephesians 4:11-16 — which is supposed to be normal Christianity.

We need to have the FRUIT OF THE SPIRIT in our lives instead: love, joy, peace, kindness and self-control — getting our JOY from Christ, not endorphin hits from lusting, disobeying Christ, setting ourselves up for eternal punishment by putting ourselves in the “will not inherit the kingdom” list in Galatians 5.

We can live FREE!!!

Paul clearly lays it out in Galatians: 5:

14 For the whole law is fulfilled in one word, in this: “You shall †*LOVE* YOUR NEIGHBOR *AS YOURSELF*†.” 15 But if you bite and devour one another, be careful that you don’t consume one another. 16 But I say, WALK BY THE SPIRIT, AND YOU WON’T FULFILL THE LUST OF THE FLESH. 17 For the flesh lusts against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh; and these are contrary to one other, that you may not do the things that you desire. 18 But IF YOU ARE LED BY THE SPIRIT, you are not under the law [like Romans 8:4].

[WILL NOT INHERIT THE KINGDOM]
19 Now the WORKS OF THE FLESH are obvious, which are: *ADULTERY*, *SEXUAL IMMORALITY*, *UNCLEANNESS*, *LUSTFULNESS*, 20 idolatry, sorcery, *HATRED*, strife, JEALOUSIES, outbursts of anger, rivalries, divisions, heresies, 21 ENVYINGS, murders, drunkenness, orgies, and things like these; of which I forewarn you, even as I also forewarned you, that THOSE WHO PRACTICE SUCH THINGS *WILL NOT INHERIT THE KINGDOM* of God.

[THOSE WHO BELONG TO CHRIST]
22 But the FRUIT OF THE SPIRIT is LOVE, JOY, PEACE, PATIENCE, KINDNESS, goodness, faithfulness, 23 gentleness, and SELF-CONTROL. Against such things there is no law. 24 *THOSE WHO BELONG TO CHRIST* HAVE CRUCIFIED THE FLESH WITH ITS PASSIONS AND LUSTS. 25 If we live by the Spirit, let’s also WALK BY THE SPIRIT. …

6:7 *DON’T BE DECEIVED*. God is not mocked, for whatever a man sows, that will he also reap. 8 For HE WHO SOWS TO HIS OWN FLESH will from the flesh REAP CORRUPTION. But HE WHO *SOWS TO THE SPIRIT* will from the Spirit REAP *ETERNAL LIFE*. 8 Let’s not be weary in doing good, for we will reap in due season, *IF we don’t give up*.

Shaw: False knowledge more dangerous than ignorance!

“Beware of false knowledge; it is more dangerous than ignorance.” – Bernard Shaw

Holiness is not legalism | Doing what you want is not grace

Holiness is normal Christianity. Willfully sinning without fully repenting is leaving Christ, being a prodigal son.

Abiding in Christ is required to not be cut off, thrown into the fire and burned. We must overcome by God’s enabling grace.

WITHOUT HOLINESS, no one will see the Lord, but will FALL SHORT OF THE GRACE OF GOD!

“Follow after peace with ALL men, and the SANCTIFICATION WITHOUT WHICH NO ONE WILL SEE THE LORD, looking carefully lest there be any man who FALLS SHORT OF THE GRACE OF GOD; lest any ROOT OF BITTERNESS springing up trouble you, and many be DEFILED by it.” – Hebrews 12:14-15

God’s holiness standard, Ephesians 4:11-16

11 He gave some to be apostles; and some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and some, shepherds and teachers; 12 for the PERFECTING of the saints, to the work of serving, to the building up of the body of Christ; 13 *UNTIL WE ALL* ATTAIN to the UNITY of the faith, and of the knowledge of the Son of God, to a FULL GROWN man, to THE MEASURE OF THE STATURE OF THE FULLNESS OF CHRIST; 14 that we may no longer be children, tossed back and forth and carried about with every WIND OF DOCTRINE [“once saved, always saved” (OSAS), “it’s hard to lose one’s salvation,” “only believe,” don’t have to actually abide in Christ to be “in Christ,” etc.], by the TRICKERY of men , in CRAFTINESS, after the WILES OF ERROR; [repeating the OSAS greatest hits verses over and over, taken out of context; ignoring the 80 that tell the truth] 15 but speaking TRUTH in love, we may GROW UP IN ALL THINGS INTO HIM, who is the head, Christ; 16 from whom all the body, being fitted and knit together through that which every joint supplies, according to the working in measure of each individual part, makes the body increase to the building up of itself in LOVE.

“For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, these are children of God.” – Romans 8:14
