I just been hired for a new job, and they are against all the mandates. I start this coming monday. That is great news Giller. Everyone has been praying for you, that you would find a new job that did not require you be vaccinated. These mandates are a serious injustice, and I believe that God will deal with all those in positions of authority that are misusing those positions, trying to force people to take an experimental vaccine against their will.

Why don't people love the truth?
Why don't more so-called Christians love the Bible?
Why is the Bible ignored?
Why are these popular theologians, pastors, and speakers believed over God's Word?
It is so frustrating to watch people who admit they ignore posts with Scripture, but teach a mish mash of things that come from men's traditions.
Where is our love for the truth?
Why are do people fall for ear-tickling, sentimental nonsense that isn't God's Word?
You'd expect the Christians to heed the Scripture, right?
But my expectations were wrong.
These feelings are coming from other forums, not necessarily this one.
The first question you asked is not that hard to answer. People do not love the truth because it is hard. It requires that they change things in their lives, and that is not always easy. Sometimes they do not think change is even possible. They are in bondage to certain habits and sins, and they really do not think they can ever be free. They do not have enough faith in God that He can deliver them.
You kind of answered your own question in the way you worded your second one. You called them "so-called Christians," and that is what you are dealing with. People that are truly born again love God's Word. After all, Jesus Christ is even called "The Word," in John chapter one. The Word of God is like food to the Christian, and just as they need to partake of actual food for physical nourishment, they realize they have a need for the Word of God for spiritual nourishment. I have found that lately, I have been desiring to be in the Word a great deal.
The Bible is ignored for different reasons. In the day we are living, one huge reason it is ignored is because it's teachings are not going to be popular with the masses, so even preachers will sanitize it and alter it's meaning in many different areas to be more politically correct, and so it will gain more wide spread acceptance. It becomes more about a numbers game than truth.
I think that one major reason the false preachers are believed over the Bible is ignorance. People do not read the Bible, and only listen to their favorite preacher, so they simply accept everything they say as the truth. They figure this man is educated in the Bible, and would have more spiritual understanding than they would. Of course, much of this is about being too lazy to read the Bible for themselves. The other thing is that many will turn to false preachers intentionally to listen to people that will make them feel good about themselves, so they will not feel guilty about their sins.
If people are ignoring posts that quote scripture in context, they simply prefer to believe a lie. It is also possible that they do not really believe the Bible is God's Word, and just see it as literature with some nice teaching inside they can take or leave. You would be surprised how many are like that.
It is hard for you or I to understand people that do not love truth, but those people have a different world view than we do. To me, believing falsehoods is vain. You may feel better now, but in the end, you are facing hell and the lake of fire. You are on what the Bible calls, "the broad road that leadeth to destruction." Why would anyone want to follow that? One reason is they want to do whatever feels good, not what God says is right. The other is unbelief, and the false idea that they will not be held responsible for believing a lie. They figure they can just tell God at the judgment, that they really thought they were following the right way, and perhaps they will even blame ministers they were listening to for leading them down the wrong path. Of course, none of these excuses will work, because the Word of God is so accessible to everyone, especially in America.
I think people fall for the ear tickling nonsense because they want to believe it. It allows them to live according to the lust of the flesh, while feeling like they are saved. Most of those people would not follow the Bible's teachings anyway if they knew what was really required of them. If they understood they actually were required to obey Jesus and the teachings of the Apostles, many would walk away saying this is too hard.
I would expect sincere Christians to follow the teachings of the Bible, and I believe the true remnant church does follow it, but again, you answered this earlier when you called them "so-called" Christians. They are not really saved.
At one of the largest forums on the internet, they guy that runs it, in a time of honesty and frustration said, "if we go by what the Bible says, nobody would be saved." Of course, that is not true, but it shows how he really feels. Out of the abundance of the heart, the mouth speaks. He also one time posted some silly excuses for what certain scriptures supposedly meant, that were completely far fetched, but asked if it was possible he could be right. If it was even remotely possibly, like 1 in 1000 that his meaning was correct, he expected everyone to accept it because he did not like anyone to feel like they could do anything to lose their salvation. He saw that as counter-productive. In the mind of some false teachers, they believe that you cannot scare people into living right, and people can live the Christian lifestyle better if they feel security in it. They believe that, even if what they are teaching is not true, so that is what they teach. I used to think everyone was teaching false doctrine in ignorance, but that is not the case. Many do it because they feel like there is no reason to scare people into salvation.
I told this before, but it is worth repeating. A suicidal woman came into a "Christian" forum wanting to know if she killed herself, if she would go to heaven. All the unconditional security people said she would. I was the only one that said she would not make it to heaven. The moderator removed my post because he said it was not productive. I had not violated any rules, and only answered her question, giving my opinion, but that was not allowed. Why? How does anyone justify giving this poor woman, who was already depressed, the belief 100 percent of the people believed she would go to heaven if she killed herself? That was so dishonest! She needed to know that not all agreed. One even said she would go straight into the arms of Jesus. To this day, I wonder if she is in hell for killing herself, and I know that if she is, everyone of those people bear part of the blame and have blood on their hands, especially that moderator. The whole thing was this misguided view that it was not useful to scare someone into not doing something, even committing suicide. It could have been about showing just how committed they were to their false doctrine, or it could have been that they really believed their own lies, but this kind of thing goes on at other message boards when the leadership is bad. During prayer meeting, I felt led to pray for the leadership at the different message boards, because we all have a huge responsibility to those who are members and guests, not to mislead them. Souls are at stake. My expectations were shattered many years ago, as I saw people I thought were true brothers and sisters in the Lord prove they were not.
There is a remnant church that does care about truth, and does love God's Word. It is small in number, which is why Jesus said that straight is the gate, and narrow the way, that leadeth to life, and few there be that find it. Jesus told us few would be saved. We are even told in scripture that the righteous are scarcely saved, but the majority go around saying just the opposite. They claim that anyone that ever prayed a sinner's prayer is saved and eternally secure. Broad road, narrow road, who cares? It is all by grace. It is all "faith plus nothing." What is nothing is their so-called salvation. These people are not saved. They are deceived. They are blind leaders of the blind, preaching another gospel while accusing us of doing that. They are going to split hell wide open if they do not repent, but they have blinders on their eyes. All we can do is pray for them.
You are right on the mark in these thoughts.
I think the reason I get so frustrated is because I was deceived myself in a lot of things but once I started reading the Bible for myself, I was willing to say I was wrong and be corrected.
But suppose I wasn't willing to be wrong... Id be on the wrong path today! That's what is so scary to me: how easily we can be deceieved in our thinking.
What I try to do now is encourage Christians to read the Bible for themselves. A lot of arguing could be resolved if Christians would read the Bible dilligently.

Thank you so much sister! The devil has been on a rampage over here..... but he is a defeated foe already, and Jesus has won all the victories!!! \O/ The devil is on a rampage against all true believers. It is evident he knows his time is short. I am sorry I did not know you had a prayer request. I had filled in last week, and I tried to find all the prayer requests, but did not see yours. Of course, we can all be in prayer throughout the week, as well as during prayer meeting for each other. We need to life each other up in prayer now more than ever before.
Yes indeed my friend . we sure need to be continuing in prayer for one another . The days ahead shall only get worse and much more deceptoin shall continue to abound . As though that were possible . But it is my friend . The apostels knew it . They knew near the end seducers and evil doers would only continue to wax worse and worse , decieving and being decieved . We are hitting a climatic point . We must cling to Christ and stay planted in scriptures as well . Its an all out war for the souls of men , of the entire world . And the lambs are few , BUT WE GOT JESUS thus WE GOT ALL WE NEED no matter what we suffer through .

We need to spend time everyday in the Bible and in prayer. I started going through the Bible last month, and am trying to finish by the end of the year. If felt like the Lord was leading me to go back through it again. I just finished up Psalms this morning. We need to have the Bible on the inside.

Thank you John! I appreciate your prayers. I prayed and fasted and the Lord gave me an answer. What I received in my spirit was that this person was a wolf in sheep's clothing and that I needed to protect the other sheep in my Bible Study. I basically told her she could not come anymore. The Lord prepared the way for me so there was no outcry, no argument. I had a few other people praying and of course my husband. The Lord gave me Luke 10:19: Behold, I give unto you power to tread on serpents and scorpions, over ALL the power of the enemy, and nothing by any means shall hurt you.
I had observed demons in this woman. She renounced the Name of Jesus when she stood up and yelled that she would die for the Sabbath Day. I looked at her and said, "Should you not say that you would die for the Lord Jesus Christ or the Name of Jesus?" and she again said that she would die for the Sabbath Day. She tried to continue on with her argument and I stopped her. I told her that she could not continue on and she burst into tears and ran to the bathroom. I had my ladies praying for her. She came out shortly and started babbling and was saying that I would not let her talk. I repeated that that was correct, if she tried to continue with her argument, I would not allow it. My friend stood up to try and rebuke her and she later told me that she hit an invisible physical wall. She heard the Lord say to her to pray and that I was to deal with this situation. Later, trying to discuss with the woman, she called me delusional and that I was in error............
This woman has many wicked spirits in her. She was an SRA victim, at a Shriner's Burn Center. She thinks she has the Lord Jesus but her savior is not Him, but the Sabbath day. I pray that the Lord will really show her and she repents.
thank you all again for your prayers!
blessings, 4Hiz

Yes we do my friend . let us stay well planted in our bible . I do not know how much you listen to people online at places like YouTube, but something I have noticed is that just about everyone can look at what is happening around us and recognize that it matches with the time Jesus called, "the beginning of sorrows." The only thing they are disagreeing on is if this is actually that time period. Many are claiming that somehow the devil is fighting to move up the time line of prophetic events, and that God is going to put him down. They are saying that Satan is trying to cause end time events to happen more than 100 years too soon. I have been pondering this, and while only God Himself knows for sure, given that we are in the generation that has seen Israel restored as a nation, and given how the technology is now available to set up the beast system, I cannot imagine that our society could survive another 100 plus years without God intervening. There is a group claiming there will be this huge revival and "awakening" or "quickening," that will be a game changer, but they keep making claims that have yet to bear fruit.
To me, we need to live as though we are at the very last of the last days. If God does send a revival, I welcome it, because I want every single soul that can be saved to be saved, but I am not counting on it. These "prophets" also are coming forward with some doctrines I know are not Biblical, and some of them have said things that did not come to pass, so I know those people are false. We are really living in a deceptive time. We have people that seem to love God and stand up for Him that are prophesying all kinds of things, and there is no way to prove or disprove them until they fail to happen or they do take place as they said they would. The only sure Word we have is God's Word. Cling to that and you know you are on sure footing.

thank you all again for your prayers! blessings, 4Hiz It is amazing how people can latch onto a single doctrine and make a god out of it. At some of the message boards, I have noticed that they made a god out of the OSAS doctrine. I once said that they may as well make a graven image and call it Oh-SAS, since that is what they worship. For them, it is not about people following Jesus, but it is all about them believing in OSAS. If they do not accept that, somehow they were failed by the church or perhaps not even really saved. I know that there are some who place all the emphasis on clean and unclean foods and things like that.
With regard to the Sabbath Day, my position is that there is no question that Saturday is the day God calls the Sabbath, but we are not commanded to have our worship services on that day, and under the New Covenant, we are not to judge people based on Sabbath keeping. I really do not get what this woman is objecting to. Why doesn't she simply keep the Sabbath in her life? Was the lesson teaching it was wrong to abstain from work on Saturday? There is nothing to stop people from doing what they believe is right, and doing so between them and the Lord.

It is either the Sabbath, clean and unclean foods or OSAS: Once Saved, Always Saved). The people that hold to doctrines like that usually think they are necessary to make it to heaven. Who is stopping her from keeping the Sabbath in her life? Anyway, if she was being disruptive, you had little choice but to remove her from your group.

The only sure Word we have is God's Word. Cling to that and you know you are on sure footing.
How on earth could they even KNOW its one hundred years too soon . Even paul said TIME is Short . The only thing i look at and watch is the SIGNS of the TIMES itself . And its saying loudly that the time is at hand . That time is short and that the coming of the LORD does draw nigh . All of which even the apostels themselves said . Its the last generation especially , that will be taken in fables and etc . The last generation would have so , so very few watching and even thinking the Time was near . And busying focusing on peace and safety . Exactly like this generation is doing right now . Jesus told us what to watch for . Inquity going through the roof and thus the love of many waxing cold . Definetely here now . And a delusion abounding within the churches that are having all to just come together under this unity stuff . this we are one . A social gospel that serves the beast . Its not hard to see the signs . And that same group , its main leader is quickly gathering even staunch Imams to be as one and bow before the throne of their making . And what is this all about . PEACE AND SAFETY , WORLD as ONE , RELIGION as one to serve this WORLD , its king and kings . Sound familiar . The mystery of inquity has long been at work and its quickly swelling in these last years . And about the time they are saying peace and safety .............what happens again . YEAH , i would for sure say we are running out of time . I leave us with a reminder that this generation has long forgot or no longer says . BE watching , IF YE will not watch then i will come upon you as a thief . Let us be on gaurd my friend and my friends . Let us be about the work of the LORD . Let us all continue in the scriptures . AND watch out for these internet men or any men . TEST them all and see if they sound anything like Christ concering the end times . JESUS never gave the impression HIS COMING wasnt or shouldnt be for a hundred years . NO HE ALWAYS LEFT THE IMPRESSION it could be nigh and at the door . TO be watching , to be ready . Satan cant speed anything up , LEST GOD ALLOWED IT . ITS GOD WHO ALONE IS IN CONTROL and You my friend KNOW this . Satan is speeding around all right , but that is cause HE KNOWS HIS TIME IS SHORT . Just another end time sign .

Concerning rest . concerning salvation . COME YE UNTO ME ALL WHO DO LABOR AND ARE WEARY and YE shall FIND REST FOR YOUR SOULS . JESUS the GLORIOUS KING is our only HOPE . Let all praise and rejoice in the LORD . Always thanking HIM . Be diligent in our walks for the Adversary rests not , but is on the prowl seeking whom he may devour . RESIST HIM BY FAITH IN JESUS .

We have people that seem to love God and stand up for Him that are prophesying all kinds of things, and there is no way to prove or disprove them until they fail to happen or they do take place as they said they would. The only sure Word we have is God's Word. Cling to that and you know you are on sure footing.
How on earth could they even KNOW its one hundred years too soon . Even paul said TIME is Short . The only thing i look at and watch is the SIGNS of the TIMES itself . And its saying loudly that the time is at hand . That time is short and that the coming of the LORD does draw nigh . All of which even the apostels themselves said . Its the last generation especially , that will be taken in fables and etc . The last generation would have so , so very few watching and even thinking the Time was near . And busying focusing on peace and safety . Exactly like this generation is doing right now . Jesus told us what to watch for . Inquity going through the roof and thus the love of many waxing cold . Definetely here now . And a delusion abounding within the churches that are having all to just come together under this unity stuff . this we are one . A social gospel that serves the beast . Its not hard to see the signs . And that same group , its main leader is quickly gathering even staunch Imams to be as one and bow before the throne of their making . And what is this all about . PEACE AND SAFETY , WORLD as ONE , RELIGION as one to serve this WORLD , its king and kings . Sound familiar . The mystery of inquity has long been at work and its quickly swelling in these last years . And about the time they are saying peace and safety .............what happens again . YEAH , i would for sure say we are running out of time . I leave us with a reminder that this generation has long forgot or no longer says . BE watching , IF YE will not watch then i will come upon you as a thief . Let us be on gaurd my friend and my friends . Let us be about the work of the LORD . Let us all continue in the scriptures . AND watch out for these internet men or any men . TEST them all and see if they sound anything like Christ concering the end times . JESUS never gave the impression HIS COMING wasnt or shouldnt be for a hundred years . NO HE ALWAYS LEFT THE IMPRESSION it could be nigh and at the door . TO be watching , to be ready . Satan cant speed anything up , LEST GOD ALLOWED IT . ITS GOD WHO ALONE IS IN CONTROL and You my friend KNOW this . Satan is speeding around all right , but that is cause HE KNOWS HIS TIME IS SHORT . Just another end time sign . The apostles must have been seeing the signs too.

For instance, they did not have Revelation. That was the last book that was written, and it was done while the Apostle John was on the isle of Patmos as a punishment for preaching the gospel. We have information the early church did not have, and we can put two and two together and see that we are living in the last days. We are also the generation that saw Israel come back as a nation. The early church was here when they were still living in Israel, but under Roman occupation.

Not to mention the knowledge is abounding. This world we are living in is now run by the Technocrats.
