FALSE PROPHETS AMONG US: Have they gotten to the point that they allow Satan to try and deceive and rule over us, unknown to themselves? They think it is their will, but it is not, it is the will of the evil one and as puppets they are playing the part he has chosen them for.
A prophet, in the righteous sense is defined as a person who speaks for God by divine inspiration. In the Old Testament, a person chosen to speak for God and to guide the people of Israel: Moses was the greatest of Old Testament prophets. Today it is the responsibility of our leaders, (they may not be prophets but are put in the position to assure the best interest of all people, whom they are guiding, are met), of the people, chosen by the people to follow YHWH’s commandments, “to guide the people in a righteous way.” “If you are going to drink from the cup, be prepared to swallow some sediments.”
When Peter eluded to false prophets, he was not only talking about the prophets of Biblical time, but he was having a prophetic (accurately describing or predicting what will happen in the future) moment, for the future: his words were bringing us to this very day.
In his concern for the “strangers in various nations”, Peter spoke on these false prophets and teachers that were going to be among the people (sounds familiar?). The prophet will be predicting unheard of resolutions and results, in a time where a godly control, not a selfish one, coupled with consideration (being careful not to cause inconvenience or hurt to others), and compassion (being sympathetic and showing genuine concern for the sufferings or misfortunes of others), practice is needed. The teachers and prophet, in secret, will bring wrong teachings to the people. We are experiencing this on a level that is unheard of: in all that they do or say has left destruction and unresolved answers in their wake. While forgetting that, Yashuah went to the cross for our sin-sick souls, keeping us from total damnation. Looking at our Lord and Saviour as an imminent threat to their misleading, they are trying to pull the very fabric of Yashuah’s ever existing and His return from the people. So, they say good is bad and bad is good to bring the people, who follow them, in line with their way of thinking and speaking and through public purification (the process of extracting something from a substance), of Him by way of His Image, His teaching, His memory, they will try to erase all that is of Him, mainly His love for us and the Bible, which is truth.
With all that the leaders will do to the ones who stand firm in their commitment to our LORD. YHWH, we must not fret or become dismayed because the LORD, that made them and brought them to the place they are now will bring them down with their own quick and prompt action and process of causing so much damage to themselves, through arrogance, disbelief and selfishness that they will no longer exists or what Elohim allows to happen to them, cannot be repaired.
Because of these leaders who unleashed and ungodly and evil way of handling that which they were made stewards over, those who follow their evil ways, will turn against what they had once believed to be truth and speak evil of the truth, also.
As it is happening today, with greed sprouting up everywhere, more apparent, we are being fed lies, that leads to destruction. And our nation and we are being made as goods to be bought and sold; a marketable, entity sold to the highest bidder or who can do the most (damage) for them. And they will tell lies and false stories so they can use you to get things for themselves.: their judgement by YHWH has been made long ago and it will be swift and righteous.
For those of us who know Who our Shepard is and Who has, is and will guide us throughout the rest of our life, hold fast to the LORD’s unchanging hands. (Romans 8:35 Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword)? Because regardless of how things seem, He is and always will be, in control. And He holds the entire future in His most capable hands. Times are hard and they will get harder but if we enter Yashuah’s rest, as He Himself rested, and be diligence about not following after the disobedience of those who supposed to be our leaders, our best days are still ahead of us.
So, understand this, and please remember, that Yashuah is the last sacrifice that will ever have to be made, once and for all, for the redemption of our sins. When He came as a man, it was to be tempted as we are tempted, to know what we face as mere men, to feel the of hatred, neglect, being ostracized. But after all that, know that with the Father’s help we can overcome all temptation. He is sympathetic (the perception, understanding, and reaction to the distress or need of our life. Since YHWH loves us so, it is driven by His ability to forgive and forget, knowing how fragile man is and the constant help we require, from Him, to secure us from all, harm that our journey brings on our life’s path. He does not look at our frail mind and body, for answers, because they will become bombarded with doubt, reasoning, confusions, and more questions which will throw us off track even more. But He look through His Son, our Saviour and with the love and purity of Him (His death is the solution for everything; He has paid for it all), make a switch in His viewpoint from a personal (GOD) perspective to the perspective of man (who is in need of His divine intervention) but only through Yashuah. For this reason, alone, our hearts should be shouting with joy knowing that false prophets, liars, cheaters and deceivers may come but as long as we remain steady in our walk with Yashuah, (going through the different trials, troubles and tribulations this world is offering to us now; not giving up for nothing), He will give us mercy and grace to help us in this time of need. Gods got it no worry no fear.
2 Peter 2:1-3
2 But there were false prophets also among the people, even as there shall be false teachers among you, who privily shall bring in damnable heresies, even denying the Lord that bought them, and bring upon themselves swift destruction.
2 And many shall follow their pernicious ways; by reason of whom the way of truth shall be evil spoken of.
3 And through covetousness shall they with feigned words make merchandise of you: whose judgment now of a long time lingereth not, and their damnation slumbereth not.
Hebrews 4:10
10For the one who has entered His rest has himself also rested from his works, as God did from His.
11Therefore let us be diligent to enter that rest, so that no one will fall, through following the same example of disobedience.
12For the word of God is living and active and sharper than any two-edged sword, and piercing as far as the division of soul and spirit, of both joints and marrow, and able to judge the thoughts and intentions of the heart.
13And there is no creature hidden from His sight, but all things are open and laid bare to the eyes of Him with whom we have to do.
14Therefore, since we have a great high priest who has passed through the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold fast our confession.
15For we do not have a high priest who cannot sympathize with our weaknesses, but One who has been tempted in all things as we are, yet without sin.
16Therefore let us draw near with confidence to the throne of grace, so that we may receive mercy and find grace to help in time of need
