This is the time when our teachers will fail us the most. It is written it will be so, and so it will be done. With the Easter and Passover holidays over, and the Greek Orthodox Πασχα (PAS-kuh) here today, the worst of the Christian scholars come out to take advantage of the time and put forth some of the worst things you’ll ever hear coming from a supposed Christian. Every year Christian scholars, priests, and other so-called experts meet at something called “The Jesus Seminars”. Many of the Catholic hierarchy come and share their beliefs and usually dominate the discussion. In years past, they have put forth that Jesus never rose from the dead. That Pilate never washed his hands of the crucifixion. That Jesus was eaten by dogs. These are from Christian teachers, mind you. Every year around Easter they meet and come up with heresies against our Lord’s word.
It is written that in the last days there will be a falling away from the faith, as is written in 2nd Thes. 2:3. In Ezekiel 13:20 it says that teachers who teach their flock how to fly will have their flock taken away from them. Something that flies in the face of the rapture doctrine. Also back in 2nd Thes. 2:3 it says that Jesus will not return until the son of perdition is revealed, clarifying what rapture believers say 1st Thes. speaks about, but I digress.
The last days are here. We are not in the Tribulation Period as of yet, but it’s coming soon. Israel is all alone now since they no longer have an ally in the White House. The judgment of the US will come as is written in Isaiah 18:1-3. The last days there will be many false christs and will deceive many. Some will be so convincing that only the election of grace will not be swayed by their words. They aren’t allowed to. Not because they won’t be here. They most certainly will be.
The point of this post is to make sure you know that your teachers will fail you. Not all of them. Perhaps maybe not most of them. Definitely many of them will though. They will twist and turn doctrine and supposed scientific finding to lead you away from what is truly written. They’re already doing it. There is a history of doing this, but it will come to a climax very soon. That is why Jesus finds no fault in only two of the seven churches of Christ in Revelation chapters 2 and 3. That is why he threatens to remove the Church of Ephesus from its place as a Christian church. That church happens to be the biggest denominational church among all in the world. That goes right in line how so many of the attendees at the Jesus Seminars are those representing the Catholic church and wearing their white collars. I don’t know what they’ve come up with for this Easter holiday. Who knows what else they can come up with in the future. One thing is for certain, it will be contrary to what is written. It will be heresy. It will anger our Lord. Those who are of the election of grace KNOW the Lord’s day will come, and He will have His vengeance.
To my Greek friends out there, ΚΑΛΩ ΠΑΣΧΑ! Enjoy your τσουρεκι.
