“Get Real!”

“Get Real!” This was the phrase that came within my musing today as I continue pondering one of the many false gospels in our day. The pseudo grace of certain professing “Christians” that seem to believe one may do all manner of darkness, thought, deed, word and the like without any ramifications. They certainly deny that God will reject and refuse them entering eternal life. No, they believe something that says, “once saved always saved”. But it is clear in the scriptures volumes of truth that contradict their lying false gospel. Volumes I say.

Initial reviewing texts from Hebrews, Galatians, Ephesians, Colossians, John, 1John, and Peter too, document the fact that those who do or have working out of them a long list of things, they will no wise enter the Kingdom of God. They are without inheritance it is written. Furthermore, Paul forewarned on this multiple times repeatedly, and urged, “let no one deceive you with empty words, that they that do such things will not inherit the Kingdom of God”, or the Kingdom of Christ.

This is a serious issue. It is one thing to be tempted by false doctrine, but it is another to stay in its clutches and then promote it to others. Woe woe woe. Woe to the false teachers. When a person comes to Jesus on His terms, laying down their lives daily, following Him, following and obeying His Word, learning from Him, receiving the one and only true doctrine that is of God, then they are His disciple indeed. That is the fact of the Kingdom of God.

People of this erring doctrine that believe a “Christian” can not be rejected by Jesus because they are under grace are deceived. It is clear, a person who sins is a slave to sin. The slave does not live in the house forever. But he that is freed by Jesus is freed indeed. They are the ones who follow His Word and will never see death! What? Yes, that is in the gospel of John. Not only that, but Jesus has the perspective that they who do the deeds of Satan are his offspring. The devil is a murderer from the beginning. There is no truth in him. When he speaks it is a lie, for he is the father of lies. Those of the devil can not abide in the true doctrine of Jesus. They can't. Because they are not of God, they cannot hear the word of truth. Those of God receive the Word. This is the most amazing simple test one could have how to tell if someone is of God or not. The spirit of error is made manifest every time someone rejects with closed ears, heart and mind the pure word of God. It is evident.

As Jesus outlined these basics to his enemies He stated how He always did what was pleasing to the Father. He spoke as He was instructed and taught by the Father. His doctrine He had seen with the Father. This is the show and tell manner of His Kingdom. So few know this in practical everyday life though they profess to be Christians or churchgoers.

It is easy to gloss over these important aspects that are plainly recorded in the Word. But don't! Jesus told these wicked religious ones who sought to kill Him that they 'wanted to do the desires of the devil'. Jesus is the opposite in only doing what He saw the Father doing, and walked in total loving obedience. It is written of Jesus how He loved righteousness and hated iniquity. Is that true of the religious Christians and churchgoers? I do not think so for the most part. They think, as the ancient idolatrous Israelites, that they are free to commit murder, adultery, lie, steal and even burn incense to other gods. They do it right in the middle of the religious place the temple, synagogue and now renamed “church”.
That is offensive? Well, happy are you if you are not offended by Jesus. Because, He tells it like it is. God cannot lie. It is impossible. He will bring correction and reproof. If those He speaks such admonitions receive it and change, good for them. But woe if they refuse Him that speaks from heaven! Hebrews 12 speaks of the real deal Kingdom of God that the faith offers. A place with the Lordship of Jesus Christ, an innumerable amount of angels, God the Father the judge of the living and the dead, a place abiding that Jesus has the keys of death and Hades, and tries the hearts of all.

Some of this dialogue comes about because of those who say Ananias and Sapphira were not killed by God though the text speaks differently. Why would someone discount who killed the two independently for conspiring to lie to God and putting Him to the test? Have they never read 1 Corinthians 10 about the “example” and again, example for learning about those whose dead bodies laid in the wilderness? A series of execution at the hand of God Almighty came upon those who had tasted of the good word of God, seen His power manifested and many such wonders, yet, sinned by idolatry and fornication, put Him to the test, as well as murmured against God. God struck them dead ladies and gentlemen. So you think God changed? He says He has not. You think the Christianity is a place to treat God with contempt? I say you better not. Do you really think you can do despite the spirit of grace and trample under foot the blood of Jesus as if it were some base thing? You are delirious and make plain do not know God but deny Him with such words and deeds of the devil.

Get real! Seek the Lord while He may be found. Call upon Him while He is near. “Forsake your evil thoughts and wicked ways”, the Lord says. Cast aside as dung all your false doctrines of men, women, false teachers, masters of religion, lords of churches the pastors, and all the other isms and titles that come from those who mock God through their religious business of leaven. Let God bring it all down and expose it by His marvelous light. The true Word of God is living, powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword. He proceeds from the mouth of God by the Holy Spirit. It is found where ever it is and in hearts, minds, spirits, and mouths of true followers of Jesus who are real. They got real in Jesus. You can tell by what they say. You know them by their fruit. They follow Jesus and follow His Word. God is with them. Jesus discloses Himself to them, and they follow in His footsteps. They are free from the world of wickedness. They are free from sin, iniquity and transgression. They walk in faith that works by love. They love God. They love people. And they are so often treated with such contempt for they hate them as they hated Jesus. Nothing is new under the sun.

So many find themselves in the same place as Paul when he was a chief sinner killing followers of Jesus. He was totally deceived by the ism of the Jews. The builders that rejected the Chief Cornerstone Jesus. All the doctrines the religious leaders invented and transposed for the truth just as Satan did in the garden. The fathers, the elders, the rulers of the synagogues, studied in their schools, and sat in the presence of their false teachers learning their craft. These are the ones who lie and wait to deceive. They are cunning and crafty, subtle and slimy, wicked and treacherous though they act “nice”. Nice as in a phony demeanor concealing the murderous lying intent as a voracious wolf in sheep's clothing. We were warned of them by many godly brothers in the Lord, prophets, apostles and Jesus too, they are never satisfied, and will strip you bare, steal all your sustenance, and gnaw you down to the bone. Exactly like their daddy Satan the devil, the dragon, and serpent of evil. Beware of them. And again I urge, “get real”. In Jesus that is...
