It always amazes me, the "prophets" who use false profiles, and/or send out their minions to gather information. Then take that information back to their "prophet", who then claim that information for their own. All in an effort to convince their followers that they have a connection to the Lord.
The worse part is those people who follow faithfully, thinking all the time they are following the Lord's servant. They are totally deceived by a very, intensely, eloquent "prophet". A man of letters, a man of education, a man of books. A man who is actually leading people down the primrose path to hell, all under the title of the Doctrine of Christ! (Exactly what the prophecies warn against!) All the time never teaching the actual doctrine of Christ, instead focusing on the surface ordinances, as if there were actually saving power in the ordinances themselves.
Notice how he changes scriptures. Notice how he leaves out parts of passages in his interpretation. Notice how he leaves out the parts of the Law of God that he himself breaks. He is an anti-Christ because he teaches against Christ! He teaches AGAINST the doctrine of Christ, under the name of "The Doctrine of Christ".
He has done away with the ordinances, not only changed them, but actually done away with them! Telling his followers that there is no authority to do the ordinances of God! What an angle! All ordinances are still necessary. All ordinances still need to be performed in the correct manner, by the correct priesthood. Just like Baptism. There are still legitimate lines of the priesthood that are still functioning.
Look at his fruits! See how many people are lowering their morals. Because he himself breaks the Law, and teaches others so to do! Those who follow him are not without accountability. Each person is accountable for their own actions, no matter the deceiver they chose to follow.
A true servant of God will be hated because he preaches a higher standard of morality, not a lower one! BEWARE of the man who preaches a lower morality under the guise of the Doctrine of Christ!
Look to the Lord. Look to the standards of the Lord. Christ actually preached very high moral standards. If you actually want to get to the Lord for real, then actually live the standards of the Lord. Walk the walk that He walked. Live the way He lived. The Lord Yeshua set the standard, He showed us the path. Follow Him! He fulfilled the Law, now follow Him, and fulfill the Law yourself!

Exactly! Look only to the Lord, it really is His work, not man's. We all need to have a personal relationship with Him, He will direct and guide. Thank you for pointing this out, again. Irene
ReplyDeleteWow, and thanks. That is a clear message from the Lord helping us identify some of the false messengers we are facing and their false doctrines. As you have noted, it is a doctrine of the devil that we are saved by an ordinance. We are saved by living the laws that the ordinance symbolizes obedience to. If we fail to avoid contention and disputations for example, a baptism means nothing since baptism (according to the Doctrine of Christ) represents a commitment that we will live without contention and without disputations and that we will actually be ONE with the Father and the Son and with our fellow believers.
ReplyDeleteI read a document recently where the author noted that he (the author) was not authorized to teach the temple endowment, yet he (the author) professes to be a servant of the Lord who claims to teach how to connect with Christ. My conclusion was that he (the author) was not authorized to teach what I need for salvation. This was something I already knew, but I thought it interesting that the author confessed that fact in a public document. Amen to what has been taught here.
