“Another Gospel”
The Gospel, it triggers much thoughts and controversy. It has been used to describe multiple things the gospel of Muhammad, the Gospel of Cars, the gospel…. And so on. But the one that makes people mad is “The Gospel of Jesus Christ” This is what really triggers someone. When this is brought up it gets intense.
In today’ society god may be acknowledge but Jesus is hated. What has caused so much hatred towards the Christ? I believe a very fine answer is given in John 7:7-
Jhn 7:7 "The world cannot hate you, but it hates Me because I testify of it that its works are evil”
It’s simple; Jesus said the works of the world are evil! Men are evil and love darkness and evil.
When someone is confronted with the truth they hate it! So instead of preaching the truth as the early church did, the Church as a majority has taken the gospel and changed it, we have changed the way we present it for fear of reproach! We have made a man centered Gospel! Forgive me if I’m reparative and passionate about this, o dear, oh how I wish the bride of Christ would wake up and see the danger and the filth she is in!
It reminds me of someone who is sending another person towards the cliff on a recliner! They says “oh but the person is comfortable” while the person falls into his death!
This is the Danger of “Another Gospel” or the modern Gospel!
When I say “Another Gospel” I mean the “Another Gospel” as is mentioned in the Bible:
Gal 1:8 “But even if we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel to you than what we have preached to you, let him be accursed.”
The word Accursed here literally means “Doomed” what Paul is basically saying is “he who preaches another Gospel, a gospel unlike the true Gospel let him be doomed” man, that’s harsh but it shows us the importance of
The gospel it shows us that the gospel is not something we can change so easily.
This is why I say that it’s dangerous for preaching “Another Gospel” because it’s eternal!
The Gospel is an eternal matter, but this fact is not thought of in the church today. We treat as it’s a fun, loving, joy gospel and it is but it’s not just that! It’s a gospel of being saved from sin!
I also believe the danger of “Another Gospel” is the fact, that many people are deceived and therefore a false convert! Many come forward thinking, “Oh I’ll accept Jesus and everything will be cool”
Only a few years later they fall away because of trials, they still live in sin, etc. All because they fell for a lie “Jesus is such a loving vending machine” but when trials and temptations come, they fall away!
This is another danger, whole churches are deceived! Whole “Believers” live in sin, because they don’t understand the true Gospel! Forgive me for being harsh, but this is the truth! How long will we preach a gospel to all mankind that only sends people to hell? How long will this go on?
So many deceived! But yet this is exactly what was mentioned would happen in the last days it said, “there would come a time”
2Ti 4:3 For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine, but according to their own desires, because they have itching ears, they will heap up for themselves teachers;
My friends and readers, I believe we are living in this time! This time is upon us! The Church is heaping up for themselves teachers! Man teachers! Only teaching what the crowds want to hear! It’s like telling a patient they are going to live a long and happy life when in reality they are going to die from Cancer!
Oh Church, how long will we heap up man-centered teachers? What a man sows, so that he shall reap! I don’t want to reap a false Gospel! We all will stand before judgment!
This is a sign we are living in the last days, the times are upon us! And yet Jesus is going to come back and find his church unfaithful to the Gospel?
But what has motivated man to heap up teachers and to preach a watered-down gospel? I believe my very first point answers it. Men’s deeds are Evil, man hates being called Evil. Because of pride, we love sin! Because of the fall men have only got wickeder and wickeder. We have only grown more accustomed to sin we have treated sin more and more lightly, we have done all that is mentioned would happen in the last days.
We have become lovers of ourselves! oh how my heart aches for the church, it’s not a matter of being biased or even trying to cause a revival, it’s simply my heart is the fact that the majority of the church is on it’s way to Hell! It’s a eternal matter! How long will we be deceived?
How long will we allow this lie that Jesus is just a vendor God and someone who is all come to you and me will be rich? How long will we refuse to preach Hell?
Jesus told us to preach “THE GOSPEL” to all nations! Not a gospel that is perverted!
Even pastors are living in sin! This is a how crazy and extreme these last days are! Oh how much more so we need to be living as a light in this Dark Age!
Oh I know the majority of “Christians” will hate us because we preach the truth, but what better love then to show them the true need for a savior?
Many “Fables” in the last days will come.
2Ti 4:4 and they will turn their ears away from the truth, and be turned aside to fables.
Perhaps this means fables or legends of Supernatural appearing other then truth of the gospel and truth of Jesus,
Perhaps it’s the new age movement, or perhaps it’s something more disguised then that perhaps it’s the gospel of being saved by works, perhaps it’s a fable that money earns your way to heaven.
My point is, is that we are living in the last days! Many churches ate turning their ears away from the truth!
The truth of the fact there is Hell but there is ALSO a God who sent his son to die for our sins!
Or the other fable is the teaching of no Hell. There are people who say you can be saved and believe in a non-existent hell,
But if there is no Hell there is no need for repentance and by this alone, you have undermined the gospel,
You have undermined the basics of the Christian faith.
Do you see the danger of this? It’s extreme!
Many Fables, many childish beliefs of a Vending God is slipping into the church! When will we wake up to this fact? We’ve lost thousands to this movement.
Let him whom preaches another gospel be accursed! There is no other Gospel that can save us! Only Jesus can!
The Gospel of Health and wealth, is also a threat like never before. People are falsely converted because they are taught once saved Jesus will make them rich! I’m not saying that you won’t be blessed or you will be poor,
I’m saying that, the bible says many trials would come! We are living in a sinful world! But it’s a matter of being rich in Faith! Trusting the Lord, it’s not a all joy ride with the Lord, it’s gots it’s ups and down.
How many are converted because they like the fluff? Many! This is a serious issue!
Forgive me for venting, but this is what is happening! Millions are going to Hell!
In Conclusion, The church is asleep to this fact! I pray my post has woke you up. let us preach the Gospel! In season and out of season!
Agreed! Let's preach salvation as costly grace...grace because it's a gift we don't deserve, and costly because it demands our all in order to receive it. (Dietrich Bonhoeffer)
