Pretty picture, sun setting on the Grand Marais harbor.
As the title of this post is "Illegal Aliens Rant" you probs assume that you
and your opinion are all set; you don't even have to think about the subject.
But you are wrong.
Not talking about Border Security or Walls or any of that.
The Illegal Aliens I'm talking about are the encroaching horde who attempt to
invade the Kingdom of God.
In the here and now, that means false Christians who
infiltrate churches and pretend that they belong to God.
They are not citizens of Heaven if God has not made them citizens.
Most of the New Testament books warn against false believers, warn Christians to be wary of such pretenders.
Jesus Himself stated that there would be false believers who would be cursed:
21“Not everyone who says to Me, ‘Lord, Lord,’
will enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father who is
in heaven will enter.
22“Many will say to Me on that day, ‘Lord, Lord, did
we not prophesy in Your name, and in Your name cast out demons, and in Your name
perform many miracles?’
23“And then I will declare to them, ‘I never knew
you; depart from Me, you who practice lawlessness.’Matthew 7:21-23.
I see them.
I see false brethren with blatantly blasphemous theology gaining footholds and authority in churches that are not spiritually discerning.
Responsibility falls on the leadership of the churches-if they are not guarding their flock against 'illegal alien false Christians'...they will answer to God.
Not to me, not to any other Christian.
But God will hold them accountable.
Read Colossians. Ephesians. Galatians. 1 & 2 Peter.
Read Ezekiel, chapters 1-12 and see how God dealt with false believers.
Christians, protect your homeland~become spiritually discerning, which means that along with clinging to the GOOD...reject the BAD.
Honor God by keeping your church free of illegals.
Ask God for discernment, and don't just assume that you have it, have had it for years and don't need Doug barking at you in a post.
Someone stated that "Discernment is seeing all subjects as black and white without any shades of gray."
Be like that. For the sake of your church and for God's Glory.
