Wow, the blindness is astounding! I'm so sick and tired of these people who are defending the heretics - don't they read their Bibles? Worldview Weekend has had a lot of programs about false teachers lately, so there must be a lot of people who worship them. What astounds me is how anyone could see that these people take money from the poorest and most desperate, and think "god" is the one "blessing" them!
I posted a picture from Operation Christmas Child (Samaritan's Purse) on FB, with a comment. Someone jumped all over me; the picture and exchange follow:

· Christine K - Yeah because WOW God doesn't eed to be blessing people that give their lives to His ministry! SHAME ON GOD for blessing certain people and not others!!

ME - Hey Christine, how blessed are the REAL Christians, who are being persecuted, tortured, burned alive, crucified, and put to death because they're sold out to Jesus? Huh? Jesus didn't have a place to lay His head! Yet these wolves pervert the Gospel, spew heresies, speak of "blab it and grab it," and NEVER ONCE mention repentance.

Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven. Matt. 7:21 Somehow, I doubt ripping off the poor is doing God's will.

ME - Oh yes, the favorite Scripture the heretics love to pull out so people will be tolerant of their sin (and stupidity), and always taken out of context. When you read it in context, it is referring to people who judge others for every little thing they do wrong, yet they refuse to see the planks in their own eye.
Regardng Matthew 7, it seems as if Jesus is negating what He said earlier in the chapter. In verses 15-23, He gives a clear warning to watch out for false prophets. In order to help us understand how to watch out for them, He tells us to look at the fruit in their lives. He points out that a bad tree cannot bear good fruit and vice versa. He even cautions us that not all who prophecy, cast out demons, and perform miracles will enter the kingdom of heaven. Wouldnt this be considered judging? No it is judging fruit, and that is entirely different.
Obviously, it takes a discerning heart to tell if someones fruit is good. As a new Christian, I was naïve enough to believe that if someone could talk the talk then they were a good, strong Christian. After walking with the Lord for over 35 years now, I know that is not always true.
For instance, the Pharisees and teachers of the law knew the Word very well. They followed it as closely as they possibly could. Yet Jesus said they were full of dead mens bones. (Matthew 23:27) Was Jesus judging them? No, He was judging their fruit, or the lack thereof.
In Acts 16:16-18, Paul and Silas were being followed by a slave girl who predicted the future. When Paul turned and commanded an evil spirit to come out of her, was he judging her? No, he was judging the fruit in her life. He was able to discern that while she did speak the truth about them, saying that they were servants of the Most High God, it was actually the spirit in her that was speaking, seeking attention for itself.
We find another example in Matthew 14:3-12 when John the Baptist spoke out and told Herod that it was wrong for him to have his brothers wife. Was John judging Herod when he spoke this? No, he was preaching the uncompromised truth of Gods Word. Obviously, it infuriated Herod because he had John arrested, and later consented to have him beheaded.
It is the same with us when we dare to stand firm on the Word;; we may also infuriate people. Unfortunately, there are many carnal Christians who want to be holy enough to make it to heaven, but they do not want to be holy enough where it causes a major disruption to their lifestyle. Speaking the uncompromised truth of Gods Word can bring conviction to those who do not want to be convicted. Their response is to lash out at us the messenger.
I find it interesting how in the last few days several people have jumped all over me for telling the truth and pointing out wolves in sheep's clothing - their "pet heretics." Well, I'm called to be a watchman, and I've done my job....if they refuse to hear the truth, their blood is on their own hands. I guess we're at the final separating of the sheep from the goats.
