Men make God out to whom they want Him to be. They constantly quote Scripture, carnally, to fit and make God to fit their delusions that makes their life style and reasoning to satisfy their understanding. Law and works, Jesus was only a good man are just a few of the carnal teachings. The Church is the new Israel, You must tithe and keep the Sabbath are a few more...…..But God is who He is, not who you make Him. People argue about His name, But He is God.
I met an old school friend on FaceBook that I went to school with. She was from an Amish (modern) family and I had not seen her for many years. We would chat back and forth now and then, but one day she wrote about someone that was sick who got well, and I wrote back praise the Lord, that He is good. Her response was that I should not have mentioned God, that she had a lot of friends that would read it and it was not my place to insert God in my post that her friends could read?
Later on (some time after that) I told her she needed the Lord in your life and she said, why would you say that, I do have the lord in my life. Her idea of God was hers that fit her life style with her friends. It grieves me that people are satisfied with their ideas about God. If He does not come while we are here, then we will go to Him when we pass. Like Paul, I'am never satisfied with myself in service to the Lord as all born again believers feel they could do more, but you who argue over words or doctrines so called will be with the five foolish virgins that Christ does not recognize. I'am not telling you that as if thou it is my idea, Those are the words of The Savior of all who call upon His name.

I'm sure the Scripture exhort us to teach truths and dispel doctrines of devils.

Many modern christians are sliding into Hell because of their pastors... who either deceptively or ignorantly preach false gospels.


You all should in fact stop posting articles and youtube clips from your favorite delusional preacher... and start to read what Jesus Christ said in the four Gospels !

Too many preachers are not called but choose being a pastor as a profession.

John 10 11 “I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd gives His life for the sheep. 12 But a hireling, he who is not the shepherd, one who does not own the sheep, sees the wolf coming and leaves the sheep and flees; and the wolf catches the sheep and scatters them. 13 The hireling flees because he is a hireling and does not care about the sheep.


Matthew 7 15 “Beware of false prophets, who come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ravenous wolves. 16 You will know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes from thornbushes or figs from thistles? 17 Even so, every good tree bears good fruit, but a bad tree bears bad fruit. 18 A good tree cannot bear bad fruit, nor can a bad tree bear good fruit. 19 Every tree that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire. 20 Therefore by their fruits you will know them.

The problem Toki, is that those that sit in the pews don't know the difference in false prophets because they have learned from them and do not seek The Lord, but only believe the false ministers.

Whenever I read some people trying to make out God and what is He, etc. from their own knowledge.. or non believers trying to argue about God and why God does not exist... or when people say that Trinity is impossibru...

"You can’t describe the Hyperdimensional with a 3D mind" :rolleyes:

I have no words to describe nor I wanna be that smartie pants defining God and take my foolishness as truth... God hates pride. As Paul Washer said so many theologians in their later life regretting that they have no relationship with God, even though their profession is about pursuing His truth. I was in a christian discord server and so many people there arguing about doctrines even weirdest doctrines, but what they do most of the time is just arguing about it. They never talk about how great God is. His kindness and all of amazing characteristics. It's probably too cringeyyy for them, my guessing. Why are you so shy worshiping God?? Come and worship Him together, for His greatness and mercy. We glorify Him in all the earth.

Every night I'm broken heart because I'm a sinner and that God is still good to me. Whenever I'm talking to someone who knows bible more than me, I feel like there are a lot I still don't know about God but I'm still given discernment, whenever something isn't right, I just know, no that ain't it bruh. Everyday I ask Holy Spirit for discernment, that is very important to ask and have it from Him in the days of deception like today.

God is amazing. That's all I can say.

Interesting how everyone always has the ONE right religion that God made perfect, and it just happens to align with their own values.

Ok but still, if you worship a God it will be the RIGHT God right? Like everyone else who has a religion.
It's not quite right to say our religion is the religion that align to our own values. In my case at least, it's God who align me to His values not me align Him to my values, like I have no right, who am I? A lot of my values are wickedness in His eyes.

There are times when He rebuked me for my wrong doings or things that I thought 'it should be fine doh!'. But what can I do? His values are justice and right.

This is so true, even in this week I had a situation where against my will God wanted me to admit something to someone that I felt was unnecessary, He insisted and it made me very uncomfortable so I kept kicking against it. He was aligning me to His values it was necessary for me to listen even though I thought no harm was done and I can just leave it.

Oof! I know how it feels. I really wanna say “I hope you do His will!” but lolol I still have my dirty laundry that I have to do too! I love Him, I really do, but I’m really incapable to do His will, like most of the time. I need God’s grace and mercy every second of my life. Let’s ask Him to strengthen our faith and life.

Forever grateful and happy that He is my God.
My Heavenly Father, my saviour Jesus, and my guidance Holy Spirit.

I obeyed eventually, it was extremely hard and super uncomfortable, but things turned out ok in the end :)

And of course, that everyone else also just coincidentally happens to be following a 'false religion'.

If there is only one correct way to follow God...it stands to reason that any other way is false. There aren’t many truths..only the one.

If there is truly only one right way and your absurd idea that if one doesn’t follow that one right way they will suffer eternal torment is correct then “heaven” is going to be a pretty lonely place LOL!
The idea that God cares more about ones doctrines and theology more than how one treats his neighbor makes God out to be egotistical, selfish and narrsasistic.

I’m not sure why it’s funny that heaven will be a lonely place. I don’t think it will be lonely...but it won’t be as crowded as the lake of fire where there is weeping and gnashing of teeth...unfortunately.

Jesus tells us there is only one narrow way and few find it.
Matthew‬ ‭7:13-14‬ ‭
Enter through the narrow gate; for the gate is wide and the way is broad that leads to destruction, and there are many who enter through it. For the gate is small and the way is narrow that leads to life, and there are few who find it.
‭‭

The idea that God cares more about ones doctrines and theology more than how one treats his neighbor makes God out to be egotistical, selfish and narrsasistic.
God has always cared that we get it right....otherwise he would have accepted Cains sacrifice or He wouldn’t have cared if Adam and Eve at the fruit for that matter.
