Thessalonians part 73

From here I will look at false pastors who exhibited prevalence in Paul's time and even more so in our own because of what has already been shown, in 2Timothy 1 beginning at verse 8 through the end of this chapter where we find this, “Be not therefore ashamed of the testimony of our LORD, nor of me His prisoner: but be a partaker of the afflictions of the (this) Gospel according to the power of God; Who having saved (redeemed) us, and called us with an holy calling (HIS Great Salvation), not according to our works, but according to His own purpose and Grace, which was given us in Christ Jesus (this is the hidden secret of Proverbs 18:10) before the world began, but is now made manifest by the appearing of our Savior Jesus Christ, Who having abolished death, and having brought Life and immortality to Light through the (this) Gospel: Whereunto I am appointed a preacher, and an apostle, and a teacher of the Gentiles. For which cause I also suffer these things: nevertheless I am not ashamed: for I know Whom I have believed, and am persuaded that He is able to keep that which I have committed to Him against that day. Hold fast the form of sound words, which you have heard of me, in faith and love which is Christ Jesus. That good thing which was committed to you keep by the Holy Ghost which dwells in (you, if you be in) us.

This you know, that all they which are in Asia be turned away from me; of whom are Phygellus and Hermogenes. The Lord give mercy to the house of Onesiphorus; for he often refreshed me, and was not ashamed of my chain: But, when he was in Rome, he sought me out very diligently, and found me. The Lord grant unto him that he may find mercy of the Lord in that day: and in how many things he ministered to me at Ephesus, you know very well.”


The false pastors are a hidden power of Apostasy during this Age, in 1Timothy 4 beginning at verse 1 through 5 where it states this, “The Spirit speaks expressly, that in the latter times [a greater or lesser period of opportune or reasonable and seasonable time, symply put, this can be repeated as deemed necessary until the time of the gentiles is fulfilled during this economy or dispensation, because with each new generation it is continued as being new] 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; Forbidding to marry, and commanding to abstain from meats, which God having created to be received with thanksgiving of them which believe and know the truth. For every creature of God is good, and nothing to be refused, if it be received with thanksgiving: For it is Sanctified by the word of God and prayer.”


Many are looking to a specific day for the LORD Christ's return, not understand the phrase, “as in the days of Noah” as seen in 1Peter 3:20 and Genesis 6;5, 13 nor the meaning of what took place in Acts 2 and how it relates to Acts 1:7-8, 10-11 in this phrase, “It is not for you to know the times or the seasons, which the Father has put in His own power. But you shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and you shall be witnesses of Me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judaea, and in Samaria, and to the uttermost part of the earth.....while they looked steadfastly toward heaven as He went up, behold, two men stood by them in white apparel; Which also said, men of Galilee, why stand here gazing up into heaven? this same Jesus, which is taken up from you into heaven, shall so come in like manner as you have seen Him go into heaven.” In Acts 2 we have this, “When the day of Pentecost was fully come, they were all with one accord in one place. And suddenly there came a sound from heaven as of a rushing mighty wind, and it filled all the house where they were sitting. And there appeared to them cloven tongues like as of fire, and He sat upon each of them. And they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance.”


At Christ's return looking into 2Timothy 4 beginning at verses 1 through 8 is where we have this statement, “I charge you therefore before GOD, and the LORD Jesus Christ, who shall judge the quick [those filled with GOD in Christ, the true Life and Light of all men] and the dead [this a metaphor for two kinds of people but they are as one, that is those who have chosen to remain separated from God who are alive and those departed souls who never accepted the Truth or revelation of Christ, as LORD, which His true Gospel affords them, as it did us, as we are now part and parcel of His kingdom Now, today] at His appearing and His kingdom; Preach the word; be instant in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all longsuffering and doctrine. For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears; And they shall turn away their ears from the Truth, and shall be turned to fables. But watch in all things, endure afflictions, do the work of an evangelist, make full proof of your ministry. For I am now ready to be offered, and the time of my departure is at hand. I have fought a good fight, I have finished my course, I have kept the faith: Henceforth there is laid up for me a crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous judge, shall give me at that day: and not to me only, but to all them also that love His appearing [notable, memorable, appearance to become clearly known as Life and Light].”


I have given a small glimse of the revelation of Proverbs 18:10 with the text herein stated, more on this as we progress.

Thessalonians part 72

Peter in the first chapter of 2Peter in verse 4 tells us that we formerly lived in the corruptions lusts of this evil world but now have become partaker of His divine nature and by so doing have escape its judgment. In chapter 2 Peter joins with Paul in warning against returning to this corruption again by the neglecting of sound teaching. Listen with care to what he has stated about the lustful nature of man in 2Peter 2 beginning at verse, that we looked before, verse 4 through the end of 22 where we find this, “If God spared not the angels that sinned, but cast them down to hell, and delivered them into chains of darkness, to be reserved for judgment; And spared not the old world, but saved Noah the eighth person [signifing that it was from his legacy from Seth on that God called those in this line righteous], a preacher of righteousness, bringing in the flood upon the world of the ungodly; And turning the cities of Sodom and Gomorrha into ashes condemned them with an overthrow, making them an example to those that after should live ungodly; And delivered just Lot, vexed with the filthy conversation [way of life or life style] of the wicked: (For that righteous man dwelling among them, in seeing and hearing, vexed his righteous soul from day to day with their unlawful deeds;) The Lord knoweth how to deliver the godly out of temptations, and to reserve the unjust unto the day of judgment to be punished: But chiefly them that walk after the flesh in the lust of uncleanness, and despise government. Presumptuous are they, selfwilled, they are not afraid to speak evil of dignities. Whereas angels, which are greater in power and might, bring not railing accusation against them before the Lord. But these, as natural brute beasts, made to be taken and destroyed, speak evil of the things that they understand not; and shall utterly perish in their own corruption; And shall receive the reward of unrighteousness, as they that count it pleasure to riot in the day time. Spots and blemishes, sporting themselves with their own deceivings while they feast with you; Having eyes full of adultery, and that cannot cease from sin; beguiling unstable souls: an heart they have exercised with covetous practices; cursed children: Which have forsaken the right way, and are gone astray, following the way of Balaam the son of Bosor, who loved the wages of unrighteousness; But was rebuked for his iniquity: the dumb ass speaking with man's voice forbad the madness of the prophet.

These are wells without water, clouds that are carried with a tempest; to whom the mist of darkness is reserved for ever. For when they speak great swelling words of vanity, they allure through the lusts of the flesh, through much wantonness, those that were clean escaped from them who live in error. While they promise them liberty, they themselves are the servants of corruption: for of whom a man is overcome, of the same is he brought in bondage. For if after they have escaped the pollutions of the world through the knowledge of the Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, they are again entangled therein, and overcome, the latter end is worse with them than the beginning. For it had been better for them not to have known the way of righteousness, than, after they have known it, to turn from the holy commandment delivered to them. But it is happened to them according to the true proverb, The dog is turned to his own vomit again; and the sow that was washed to her wallowing in the mire.”


From here I will look at false pastors who exhibit prevalence in Paul's time and even more so in our own because of what has already been shown, in 2Timothy 1.

Thessalonians part 71

Jesus Himself revealed many of the errors of man and the religion of man held together by his traditions and spoke to this as being bound by traditions, hear Jesus' own words reguarding this, in Matthew 15 beginning at verse 1 through the end of verse 12 through this wise 1-9, 10-12, 13-14. Where we find this statement, “There came to Jesus scribes and Pharisees, which were of Jerusalem, saying, Why do Your disciples transgress the tradition of the elders? for they wash not their hands when they eat bread. Jesus answered them, Why do you also transgress the commandment of God by your tradition? For God commanded, saying, Honor your father and mother: and, He that curses father or mother, let him die the death. But you say, Whoever shall say to father or mother, it is a gift, by whatever you might be profited by me; Honors not his father or his mother, he shall be free. Thus have you made the commandment of God of none effect by your tradition. You hypocrites, well did Esaias [Isaiah] prophesy of you, saying, This people draw nigh to me [Me] with their mouth, and honor me [Me] with their lips; but their heart is far from me [Me]. But in vain they do worship Me, teaching for doctrines the commandments of men.

He called the multitude, and said to them, Hear, and understand: It is not that which goes into the mouth that defiles a man; but that which comes out of the mouth, this defiles a man. Then came His disciples, and said to Him, Know You that the Pharisees were offended, after they heard this saying?

Jesus answered, Every plant, which My heavenly Father has not planted, shall be rooted up. Let them alone: they be blind leaders of the blind. And if the blind lead the blind, both shall fall into the ditch.”


Man through the cunning craftiness of the deceivers character within them push many to be unstable . This is in 1Timothy 1 beginning at verse 4 through the end of verse 11 where this is found, “Neither give (in other words given no place to) heed to fables and endless genealogies, which minister questions, rather than godly edifying which is in faith: so do. Now the end of the commandment is charity (which is another word for love and this love is not mans love which has three meanings not one of which comes close to GODS Love which is selflessness and only seeks the good or better thing for others) out of a pure heart, and of a good conscience, and of faith unfeigned: From which some having swerved have turned aside to vain jangling; desiring to be teachers of the Law; understanding neither what they say, nor whereof they affirm. But we know that the Law is good, if a man use it lawfully; Knowing this, that the Law is not made for a righteous man, but for the Lawless and disobedient, for the ungodly and for sinners, for unholy and profane, for murderers of fathers and murderers of mothers, for manslayers, for whoremongers, for them that defile themselves with mankind, for menstealers, for liars, for perjured persons, and if there be any other thing that is contrary to sound doctrine; According to the glorious gospel of the blessed God, which was committed to my trust.”


Since the moment of mans fall from the presence of GOD in what is commonly called mans rebellion Satan's likeness has been prevalent in man which is known as mans being cunningly deceptive. I'll look at what is stated in Ephesians 4 and keep in mind that we are looking at false prophets and false teachers who proclaim a falsehood under the guise of being sent of the LORD or state that they are speaking as He gives them utterance. Many today mistakenly think that a prophet speaks of future things or as a fortune teller not realizing the pattern of the Old Tesament Prophets. Who did indeed speak as the LORD gave them utterance in reguards to that which they were already seeing and were familiar with. They brought to light the sin and error of the people and during this spoke both the words of warning against continued rebellion and also the way of the escape in the LORD'S provision, by turning the other way and not continuing on in the error.
Ephesians 4 beginning with verse 1 through the end of verse 16, where we find this statement, “I therefore, the prisoner of the Lord, beseech you that you walk worthy of the vocation [the placement of our being in reguards to our assignment in the family as seen in verse 11 and 12 below] wherewith you are called, with all lowliness and meekness, with longsuffering, forbearing one another in love; Endeavouring to keep the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace. There is One Body, and One Spirit, even as we are called in One Hope of your calling; One Lord, One Faith, One Baptism [this of water and blood, this is not a water only baptism], One God and Father of all, Who is above all, and through all, and in you all (2Corinthians 5:14-15, John 10:14-28, and chapter 17's prayer). But to every one of us is given Grace according to the measure of the gift of Christ.(this has to do with what John reveals to us in 1:14, 16-17) Wherefore He said, When He ascended up on high, He led captivity captive, and gave gifts to men. (Now that He ascended, what is it but that He also descended first into the lower parts of the earth? He that descended is the same also that ascended up far above all heavens, that He might fill all things [those of 2Corinthians 5:14-15 and John 10:14-28].) And He gave some, apostles; and some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and some, pastors and teachers; For the perfecting of the saints, for the work of the ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ: Till we all come in the unity of the Faith, and of the Knowledge of the Son of God, to a perfect man, to the measure of the stature of the fulness of Christ: That we henceforth [our former life in and of the world and the worlds religious forms which are based on the traditions of man] be no more children, tossed to and fro, and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the sleight of men, and cunning craftiness, whereby they lie in wait to deceive; But speaking the Truth in Love, may grow up into Him in all things, which (Who) is the Head, even Christ: From Whom the whole body fitly joined together and compacted by that which every joint supplies, according to the effectual working in the measure of every part, makes increase of the Body to the edifying of itself in Love.”

Thessalonians part 70

Many become those who willfully deny the Truth in resistance of it. Many do not see where Paul or the Bible translaters use the term “the gospel,” in many cases it should read, “this gospel.” Because this Gospel is very narrow and restrictive in its over all revelation both of Christ and Christ's character and image being restored with man. This is what these people because of false teaching and misconceptions of fallens man being in darkness do not know or acknowledge. Because we all and without fail are products of the sin and death nature and this nature become more operative the older we all become. Just as when we first become the LORDS it may takes years and years before His character and image are fully restored within us. Why is this so? Because to all goes back to the Bibles beings, is the why and how of it. In this Church Dispensation or Age of Grace many deny or cover up the corruption of mankinds soul thinking that by doing so will bring our, mans evil nature to an end. But this conception is false and is most harmful because it gives one a sinse of welfare when there is NO welfare there, only darkness of soul. And the greatest of offenders is the church or mans Religion because it proclaims another gospel. A gospel of perversion and distortion and the actual denial of GOD'S Truth in Christ.


In 2Timothy 3 beginning at verse 1 through the end of verse 9 is where we have this statement, “This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come. For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good, traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God; Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away. For of this sort are they which creep into houses, and lead captive silly women laden with sins, led away with divers lusts, ever learning, and never able to come to the knowledge of the Truth. Just as Jannes and Jambres withstood Moses, so do these also resist the truth: men of corrupt minds, reprobate concerning the faith. But they shall proceed no further: for their folly shall be manifest to all men, as theirs also was.”


Many people have fallen away because of the vain imagination of the mind which is subjected to fables and those hoodwinked become lovers of, self. In 2Timothy 4 beginning at verse 1 through the end of verse 5 where we find this, “I charge you before GOD, and the LORD Jesus Christ, who shall judge the quick and the dead at His appearing and His kingdom; Preach the word; be instant in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all longsuffering and doctrine [this was my own personal charge by the LORD in 1971 shortly after returning from Southeast Asia. When HE in a personal appearance, simular to that of Saul of Tarsus's experience, called me to be a pastor and teacher]. For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears; And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned to fables. But watch in all things, endure afflictions, do the work of an evangelist, make full proof of your ministry.”

 
Because of what happened and stated above the following has also happened, many are become destitute of the truth, Paul in 1Timothy 6 has a stern warning beginning at verse 3 through the end of verse 10 where this is stated, “If any man teach otherwise, and consent not to wholesome words, even the words of our Lord Jesus Christ, and to the doctrine which is according to godliness; He is proud, knowing nothing, but doting about questions and strifes of words, whereof comes envy, strife, railings, evil surmisings, perverse disputings of men of corrupt minds, and destitute of the Truth, supposing that gain is godliness: from such withdraw yourself. But godliness with contentment is great gain. For we brought nothing into this world, and it is certain we can carry nothing out. And having food and raiment let us be therewith content. But they that will be rich fall into temptation and a snare, and many foolish and hurtful lusts, which drown men in destruction and perdition. For the love of money is the root of all evil: which while some coveted after, they have erred from the faith, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows.”


Jesus Himself revealed many of the errors of man and the religion of man held together by his traditions and spoke to this as being bound by traditions.

Thessalonians part 69

Seeing that the word prophet has to do with teaching and today there are also false teachers and pastors that are part of this outline under the same heading. And because these are men and women who are representatives of the kingdom of darkness and are under the covering of the fallen angels who masqerade as angels of light. When in fact there is no light in them, just as there is no truth in Satan, they are blemishes all the while sporting themselves with their own deceivings while they feast with us.

This I will now cover by listing the charactistics of God's Grace: perverted in Galatians 1, offences and to avoid evils in Romans 16, Christ deniers in 2Peter 2, Truth resisted in 2Timothy 3, fable lovers in 2Timothy 4, destitute of the truth in 1Timothy 6, bound by traditions in Matthew 15, unstable in 1Timothy 1, cunningly deceptive in Ephesians 4, lustful in 2Peter 2. These have prevalence of in Paul's time in 2Timothy 1, during this age in 1Timothy 4, at Christ's return in 2Timothy 4. These are all driven on by a familar spirit as described as, source of defilement in Leviticus 19, *abominable in Deuteronomy 18, vain in Isaiah 8, selfish and greedy in Isaiah 56, unmindful of the folck in Ezekiel 34, even to driving the flock away in Acts 20. With those who practice such things are to be, cut off in Leviticus 20, put to death in Leviticus 20. There are many figure and illustrations given but here are only two: consulted by Saul in 1Samuel 28, and Manasah in 2Kings 21.

Grace perverted in Galatians 1 this is found beginning at verse 6 through the ned of verse 9 but here I will carry things a bit farther to the end of verse 12 here we find this, “I marvel that you are so soon removed from Him that called you into the Grace of Christ to another gospel: Which is not another; but there be some that trouble you, and would pervert the gospel of Christ. But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel to you than that which we have preached to you, let him be accursed. As we said before, so say I now again, If any man preach any other gospel to you than that you have received, let him be accursed.

For do I now persuade men, or God? or do I seek to please men? for if I yet pleased men, I should not be the servant of Christ.

But I certify you, that the gospel which was preached of me is not after man. For I neither received it of man, neither was I taught it, but by the revelation of Jesus Christ.”


Many have exchanged the Gospel for offences and others to avoid evils in Romans 16 beginning at verse 17 through the end of verse 20 where we find this, “I beseech you, mark them which cause divisions and offences contrary to the doctrine which you have learned; and avoid them. For they that are such serve not our Lord Jesus Christ, but their own belly; and by good words and fair speeches deceive the hearts of the simple.(these people distrust no one) For your obedience is come abroad to all men. I am glad therefore on your behalf: but yet I would have you wise to that which is good, and simple concerning evil. And the God of peace shall bruise Satan under your feet shortly. The Grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be [actively increasing] with you. Amen.”


There are many who have chosen to be Christ deniers in 2Peter 2 beginning at verse 1 through the end of verse 10 with this break down 1-3, 4-10, where this is stated, “There were false prophets also among the people, even as there shall be false teachers among you, who privily shall bring in damnable heresies, even denying the Lord that bought them, and bring upon themselves swift destruction. And many shall follow their pernicious ways; by reason of whom the way of truth shall be evil spoken of. And through covetousness shall they with feigned words make merchandise of you: whose judgment now of a long time lingers not, and their damnation slumbers not.

For if God spared not the angels that sinned, but cast them down to hell, and delivered them into chains of darkness, to be reserved to judgment; And spared not the old world, but saved Noah the eighth person, a preacher of righteousness, bringing in the flood upon the world of the ungodly; And turning the cities of Sodom and Gomorrha into ashes condemned them with an overthrow, making them an ensample to those that after should live ungodly; And delivered just Lot, vexed with the filthy conversation of the wicked: (For that righteous man dwelling among them, in seeing and hearing, vexed his righteous soul from day to day with their unlawful deeds;) The Lord knows how to deliver the godly out of temptations, and to reserve the unjust to the day of judgment to be punished: But chiefly them that walk after the flesh in the lust of uncleanness, and despise [do not set their affections on the] government. Presumptuous are they, selfwilled, they are not afraid to speak evil of dignities.”

Thessalonians part 68

By way of reminder we are looking at 2Thessalonias 2 where we find this statement, in 2Thessalonians 2:8-12 “Then shall that Wicked be revealed, whom the Lord shall consume with the spirit of His mouth, and shall destroy with the brightness of His coming: Even him,* whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders, and with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved. For this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie: That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness.”

(*this is added by the translater and can be omitted and when we do this is what we get, Whose coming is after that of Satan with all lying power and signs and lying wonders as the deceiver of all mere natural, earthy, carnal people as it these who will perish. Look withcare at verses 17-22 of 2Peter 2 quoted below.)

The other thing is that what I share and say is more than the norm because of the presense of the LORD'S own Spirit within me as He was in Peter, Paul and those few who came out from among them over the past 1986-2000 years. And at times what I say will be in opposition to what many of the religious community say and preach or even may live by as their doctrine. Like with Jesus, Paul and others we are in a class of few people and like them we are not alone for we have the Father from Whom comes all things known of the LORD. He increases within us as we progress along the narrow path which is entered after we have faced off with the cross and lost, yes lost to the workings of the cross within and then received His resurrection within our soul returned to His rule.

Lastly we will look at the teaching of corruption in 2Peter 2 beginning at verse 4 through the end, in the fashion 4-16, 17-22, where it states this, “For if God spared not the angels that sinned, (these were free roaming beings during the period of time before the flood of Noah, when they were killed off by this flood and cast into the pit. It was these fallen angles who procreated through woman the nephilim of Gen. 6:4) but cast them down to hell, and delivered them into chains of darkness, to be reserved to judgment; And spared not the old world, but saved Noah the eighth person, a preacher of righteousness, bringing in the flood upon the world of the ungodly; And later turning the cities of Sodom and Gomorrha into ashes condemned them with an overthrow, making them an example to those that after should live ungodly; And delivered just Lot, vexed with the filthy conversation of the wicked: (For that righteous man dwelling among them, in seeing and hearing, vexed his righteous soul from day to day with their unlawful deeds;) The Lord knows how to deliver the godly out of temptations, and to reserve the unjust to the day of judgment to be punished: But chiefly them that walk after the flesh in the lust of uncleanness, and despise government. Presumptuous are they, selfwilled, they are not afraid to speak evil of dignities. Whereas angels, which are greater in power and might, bring not railing accusation against them before the Lord. But these, as natural brute beasts, made to be taken and destroyed, speak evil of the things that they understand not; and shall utterly perish in their own corruption; And shall receive the reward of unrighteousness, as they that count it pleasure to riot in the day time. Spots they are and blemishes, sporting themselves with their own deceivings while they feast with you; Having eyes full of adultery, and that cannot cease from sin; beguiling unstable souls: an heart they have exercised with covetous practices; cursed children: Which have forsaken the right way, and are gone astray, following the way of Balaam the son of Bosor, who loved the wages of unrighteousness; But was rebuked for his iniquity: the dumb ass speaking with man's voice forbad the madness of the prophet.

These are wells without water, clouds that are carried with a tempest; to whom the mist of darkness is reserved forever. For when they speak great swelling words of vanity, they allure through the lusts of the flesh, through much wantonness, those that were clean escaped from them who live in error. While they promise them liberty, they themselves are the servants of corruption: for of whom a man is overcome, of the same is he brought in bondage. For if after they have escaped the pollutions of the world through the Knowledge of the LORD and Savior Jesus Christ, they are again entangled therein, and overcome, the latter end is worse with them than the beginning. For it had been better for them not to have known the way of righteousness, than, after they have known it, to turn from the holy commandment delivered to them. But it is happened to them according to the true proverb, The dog is turned to his own vomit again; and the sow that was washed to her wallowing in the mire.”

Seeing that the word prophet has to do with teaching there are also false teachers and pastors that are part of this outline under the same heading.

Thessalonians part 67

Next is the teaching of lies as spoken of in Jeremiah 28, and I must stress that any slight falsehood is a lie. I say this because it has become commonpratice these days to accept even the smallest “white lie” and think nothing of it. But that is not so with GOD because HE tells us that HE will hold each of us accountable for the slightest lie. In Jeremiah 28 beginning at verse 10 through the end of this chapter is where we find this stated, “Then Hananiah the prophet took the yoke from off the prophet Jeremiah's neck, and broke it. And Hananiah spoke in the presence of all the people, saying, Thus says the LORD; Even so will I break the yoke of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon from the neck of all nations within the space of two full years. And the prophet Jeremiah went his way. Then the word of the LORD came to Jeremiah the prophet, after that Hananiah the prophet had broken the yoke from off the neck of the prophet Jeremiah, saying, Go and tell Hananiah, saying, Thus says the LORD; You have broken the yokes of wood; but you shall make for them yokes of iron. (This yoke is the added 613 man made additions to the Law of Moses dealing with all kinds of things meant to broaden Moses original Law. These have become a yoke of grievious wieght to heavy for any to bear.) For thus says the LORD of Hosts, the God of Israel; I have put a yoke of iron upon the neck of all these nations, that they may serve Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon (look at 27:6, today who is this king of Babylon, could it be those of Islam? They fit the bill.); and they shall serve him: and I have given him the beasts of the field also. (This is in direct opposition to what the falseprophet Hananiah said in verse 11) Then said the prophet Jeremiah to Hananiah the prophet, Hear now, Hananiah; The LORD has not sent you; but you make this people to trust in a lie. Therefore thus says the LORD; Behold, I will cast you from off the face of the earth: this year you shall die, because you have taught rebellion against the LORD.

So Hananiah the prophet died the same year in the seventh month.”

There are many pretending to be true to this what did Jesus say? Looking in Matthew 7 beginning at verse 21 through the end of this chapter I'll break it down this way 21-23, 24-27, 28-29, “Not every one that says to Me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that does the Will of My Father which is in heaven. Many will say to Me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in Your name? and in Your name have cast out devils? and in Your name done many wonderful works? And then will I profess to them, I never knew you: depart from Me, you that work iniquity.

Therefore whoever hears these sayings of Mine, and does them, I will liken him to a wise man, which built his house upon a rock: And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell not: for it was founded upon a rock. And every one that hears these sayings of Mine, and does them not, shall be likened to a foolish man, which built his house upon the sand: And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell: and great was the fall of it.

It came to pass, when Jesus had ended these sayings, the people were astonished at His doctrine: For He taught them as one having authority, and not as the scribes.”
