Just because many things are continuing the way they were after Jesus physically left the Earth doesn’t mean God’s Word of prophecy has been annulled. Take care of your spiritual health and be mindful of what you hear.
In the last study scripture article release, I spoke extensively about the deceptions of false teachers in the Body of Christ, starting from 2 Peter 2:18-19. Today, I am continuing the same series from a second part of that same Bible verse region. Let’s dive in.
You cannot save someone from a thing you are a slave to. In God’s house, that works so much. If a pastor is battling with lust in secret, no matter how well he teaches against it in public, the people won’t change. You are a living witness of Jesus. So prioritize living clean before Him.
In the last study scripture article, I spoke about how God is about to punish false prophets and preachers who are moving around and using His name to do deviant things. In today’s edition, I want to highlight this topic more using the subsequent verses in that same epistle. Take […]
Since the Bible never changes and is still effective, every principle written therein applies to us today. In today’s study scripture release, I want to talk about the depravity of false teachers from 2 Peter 2:12-14. Let’s dive in.
Even if you made the wrong choice, God knows how to order your steps back on track for His destiny in your life. Fret not, dear one. No matter who did that bad thing to you, remember that vengeance is from the Lord.
When humans sin, it really infuriates God. I believe the ongoing sins in this generation are far worse than those committed by the people who lived in Noah’s time. But one thing that hasn’t made God wipe out the human race was the declaration He made when Noah offered a sacrifice unto Him that He won’t destroy the Earth with water again (see Genesis 8:21). Nevertheless, the second coming of Jesus is near, and God will judge the Earth. So live clean before Him.
Have you heard of the Bereans in Acts 17:10-15? Paul preached the Word powerfully to them. But they went to check the scriptures to confirm whether or not what Paul said was true. That is wisdom. It is not enough to hear the Word of God being preached. You must know God for yourself. When you know God, you will understand His ways and, therefore, not follow the destructive ways of the false prophets.
Jesus is the reliable prophetic message that is spoken about in the verse above. His Word is dependable. He’s not like men who say one thing and do another. No! Jesus, being faithful, will never flaunt His Word concerning your life.
The Word is truth, and it’s not fake. But to insist on this, Peter wrote about it in 2 Peter 1:16-18, where he took time to disband the claims of false teachers and prophets going around to say the gospel wasn’t relevant in those times. Today, that scripture, 2 Peter 1:16-18 is important to discuss because the attack on the gospel hasn’t changed. Let’s take them on verse by verse.
Many believers forget what they hear in church. For that reason, it will be necessary for preachers to emphasise the truth consistently. The gospel is powerful enough to keep impacting people; it’ll never make people dull of hearing. Treasure these things, dear minister.
Receiving a calling in Christ is not enough. Neither is it enough to know you have been elected by grace (as in, God has chosen you in Christ – see Ephesians 1:4). You need diligence to ensure you reach the high calling God has destined you to get.
