Many churches have allowed the spirit of the world to enter and because of that many Christians don’t live holy lives after the Spirit in obedience to the Word, but have become like the world and live after the flesh. Many churches have become a ruin instead of a solid house of the Lord, just like the temple of God became a ruin in the Old Covenant. Instead of building on a solid Foundation, many have neglected the Foundation. They didn’t believe the words of God and didn’t build upon His Word. Вместо, they believed in the words of man, who belong to the world and built upon their words. Many (false) пророки, who seem spiritual, но на самом деле, don’t have the Spirit of God, have entered the church. They are carnal and don’t have the mind of Christ but they have the carnal mind of the world. Therefore they don’t prophecy from the heart of God, but from their own hearts’ desires and their own wisdom, знание, and insights.
The temple became a ruin
В Ветхом Завете, there were many prophets, who didn’t speak from God but spoke from their own hearts. They thought they were sent and led by God and that God had spoken to them, but God had not sent them and had not spoken to them.
These prophets hadn’t seen anything and spoke lying divinations. They spoke positive words and announced peace, while God had spoken through His true prophets and denied the peace, which was spoken of by these false prophets.
These false prophets were deviated from God and His Word and didn’t live after His will, but after their own will. Из-за этого, they didn’t speak the words of God, but they spoke their own words.
Although they were seated in the temple and maintained the customs, religious holidays, и (sacrificial) rituals according to the закон Моисея, their heart was far from God. Therefore many lived in pride and rebellion against God.
They did all those things, which were evil in the eyes of God.
Они совершили прелюбодеяние, enter into covenants with pagan nations, enter into marriages with their sons and daughters and adopted the customs of the pagan nations, and spoke from their own hearts, знание, мудрость, and insights. And so they defiled with their works and words the temple of God.
Because of their vain words and works, the glory of God departed from the temple and the temple became a ruin.
The prophets of Israel
Так говорит Господь Бог; Горе глупым пророкам, которые следуют своему собственному духу, и ничего не видел! Израиль, твои пророки подобны лисицам в пустыне. Вы не взошли в пропасти, и не сделал ограды для дома Израилева, чтобы выстоять в сражении в день Господень.
Они видели суету и лживое гадание, говоря, Господь говорит: и Господь не послал их: и заставили других надеяться, что они подтвердят слово.
Не видели ли вы тщетного видения, и не лживого ли вы гадания говорили, тогда как ты говоришь, Господь говорит это; хоть я и не говорил?
Посему так говорит Господь Бог; Потому что вы говорили тщеславие, и видел ложь, поэтому, вот, я против тебя, говорит Господь Бог.
And Mine hand shall be upon the prophets that see vanity, и эта божественная ложь: they shall not be in the assembly of My people, neither shall they be written in the writing of the house of Israel, и не войдут они в землю Израиля; и узнаете, что Я Господь Бог.
Потому что, even because they have seduced My people, говоря, Мир; и не было мира; и один построил стену, и, вот, другие обмазали его незакаленной мортирой: Скажи тем, кто мажет его незакаленной смесью, что он упадет: будет проливной душ; и ты, О великий град, упадет; и бурный ветер разорвет его. Ло, когда стена рухнет, не будет ли сказано вам, Где мазка, которой вы ее обмазали??
Посему так говорит Господь Бог; I will even rend it with a stormy wind in My fury; и прольется дождь во гневе моем, and great hailstones in My fury to consume it. Так я разрушу стену, которую вы обмазали незакаленной мортером., и опустить его на землю, так что основание его будет обнаружено, и оно упадет, и вы будете истреблены посреди него: и узнаете, что Я Господь.
Thus will I accomplish My wrath upon the wall, и на тех, кто мазал его незакаленной смесью, и скажу тебе, Стены больше нет, ни те, кто это мазал; А именно, пророки Израиля, пророчествующие об Иерусалиме, и которые видят для нее видения мира, и нет мира, говорит Господь Бог (Иезекииль 13:1-16)
The prophetesses of Israel
Так говорит Господь Бог; Горе женщинам, которые шьют подушки во все проймы., и сделай платки на голову всякого роста, чтобы охотиться за душами! Will ye hunt the souls of My people, и спасете ли вы живыми души, приходящие к вам? And will ye pollute Me among My people for handfuls of barley and for pieces of bread, убивать души, которые не должны умирать, и спасти живые души, которые не должны жить, твоей ложью моим людям, которые слышат твою ложь?
Посему так говорит Господь Бог; Вот, Я против твоих подушек, с помощью чего вы охотитесь за душами, чтобы заставить их летать, и я вырву их из твоих рук, и отпущу души, даже души, на которые вы охотитесь, чтобы заставить их летать.
Я и твои платочки порву, and deliver My people out of your hand, и они больше не будут в твоей руке, чтобы на них охотились; и узнаете, что Я Господь.
За то, что ложью вы опечалили сердце праведника, кого я не огорчил; и укрепил руки нечестивых, чтобы он не вернулся со своего злого пути, пообещав ему жизнь: Поэтому вы больше не увидите суеты, ни божественные предсказания: for I will deliver My people out of your hand: и узнаете, что Я Господь. (Иезекииль 13:17-23)
The believers keep walking as the old creation
Since many believers don’t walk after the Spirit as the новое творение but keep walking as the old creation after the flesh, the same things that happened in the Old Covenant happen in the New Covenant. We see the same things in the lives of believers as the people of Israel experienced.
This is mainly because the nature of most people has not changed and they are led by their flesh (senses, воля, чувства, эмоции, carnal mind, и т. д.).
We see the same defilement of the temple of God in many churches and in the lives of people.
Just like the leaders of the temple of God in the Old Covenant committed adultery, and enter into covenants with pagan nations, many leaders, who are appointed in churches also commit idolatry and commit adulatory with the world by compromising with sin and by entering into covenants with the world
Believers are not able to stand in the spiritual battle
There are people, who call themselves prophets but are not appointed by God. They are carnal and live like the world. They often misuse their position as prophet for personal gain. There are even prophets, who only prophesy for money, just like the fortunetellers of the world, who predict the future for money.
These prophets are selfish and have not gone up into the gaps. They have not built up a spiritual hedge for the church, so that the believers, кто такая церковь, would grow up in the Word after the image of God and would spiritually mature, so that they would be able to stand in the spiritual battle (Колоссянам 3:10, Ефесянам 6:11-16, Джеймс 1:2-4)
These false prophets don’t stand in God’s service and have not spoken the words of God and have not led the believers on the way of God.
They are not led by the Holy Spirit and have not spoken His words, but they are led by their flesh and have prophesied from their flesh (душа); from their own heart, and their own spirit. Из-за этого, they have made the crooked ways straight.
Believers walk on the same path as unbelievers
Many believers have deviated from the Truth and are walking in lies because of these false prophets. They walk in darkness on the same path as unbelievers and are on their way to the same destination. Although many expect another destination. But that’s because they are misled and blinded by the lies of these so-called messengers of the word.
These false prophets don’t preach the truth and don’t correct believers and don’t call them to repentance and to remove the sins from their lives, so that they turn from their evil ways, which lead to eternal destruction.
Вместо, they preach lies and encourage the sins in people’s lives and allow the people to live in sin, whereby they stir up wickedness and encourage apostasy.
They don’t preach the spiritual dangers in the churches and don’t preach зло.
Вместо, they only speak positive words and peace and say that everything is well, в то время как на самом деле, it is not well.
They preach things in the Имя Иисуса, while Jesus hasn’t spoken through them by the Holy Spirit.
Through their vain words and their vain works, they try to catch as many souls as possible and win them for themselves and bind them to themselves, all because of fame and personal gain.
The prophetesses in the church
Just like the false prophets, there are also many false prophetesses operating in churches, who look pious and spiritual but in reality are soulish and prophesy from their flesh; their own hearts, идеи, чувства, и эмоции.
They use natural means, методы, and technics to enter a supernatural state of trance, so that they receive supernatural insights, visions, and words.
They are carnal and prophecy according to what they perceive and feel in the natural realm, whereby they prophesy according to their own insights and what they want to see, instead of being led by the Holy Spirit and obey the words of God and prophecy from the Word through the Holy Spirit.
Since they exalt themselves above God and His Word, they walk in pride and exalt themselves above others.
They mislead and manipulate many believers. They sew magic charms on their sleeves and make veils upon their heads, so that they are captured and come under their power.
These believers believe in them and trust in the words, which these prophetesses prophesy after their own hearts and many times are influenced by a spirit of divination.
They allow them to lead them, so that they become dependable on them. This is the way these false prophetesses operate and gain many souls through deceptive manipulation and make them wander in ways in which the believers have no business.
The believers, who get involved with these false prophets and false prophetesses, who seem spiritual but in reality are soulish and prophecy from their own heart and soul, open themselves for the same spirits, who operate in these false prophets, and these spirits shall manifest themselves in their lives.
They will be led by a lying spirit and a spirit of divination and shall speak the same lies and prophecy the same way as these false prophets and prophetesses, whereby they shall spiritually manipulate and bind other people to themselves and take (духовный) authority over them.
Why many churches have become a ruin?
Because the Holy Spirit has been removed from many churches by the rejecting of the Word, many churches are no longer the light that shines in the darkness. The candlestick has been removed from many churches. Therefore the light has been extinguished and many churches are seated in darkness and have become a ruin.
The devil has not attacked the Church from the outside but from the inside. Many times through people, who have lived in the (оккультный) world and repented, but have brought their wisdom, знание, and practices from the (оккультный) world into the church or through believers, who have slowly deviated from the Word and have left God’s Way and have become world-like and have influenced the church with their own carnal wisdom, knowledge and (оккультный) insights and their lives, which are full of sin.
These people have ensured, that many churches have left the Word; the Truth, and wander on self-chosen ways.
The same lying spirit and spirit of divination that operated during the Old Covenant and during the days of the early Church, still operate today and have entered many churches.
Святой Дух, who abode in Jesus and in the apostles, who had become sons of God, warned the believers of these false prophets. And the Holy Spirit, who dwells in the sons of God, still warns the believers of these false prophets (Мэтью 7:15; 24:11-24, Отметка 13:22, 2 Питер 2:1-3, 1 Джон 4:1-3)
But as long as believers don’t отбросить старика, кто ходит по плоти, and don’t put on the new man, who walks after the Word and the Spirit, they shall not be able to discern the spirits and shall trap into the lies of the devil, because they are unspiritual and focused upon supernatural manifestations, опыт, and feelings instead of the Word.
Jesus tears the magic charms and removes the veils
But luckily there is still a way of restoration through repentance. Because just like God in the Old Covenant broke the magic charms and removed the veils, and redeemed the souls and restored His people and the temple when they repented, Jesus Christ still redeems and restores mankind in the New Covenant.
Jesus Christ tears the magic charms and removes the veils from those, who repent and turn to Jesus Christ and through регенерация in Christ become a son of God, who is obedient to Him.
Те, who love Jesus with all their heart, разум, душа, and strength and listen to Him, yield to Him, и do His words in their lives shall walk in the light instead of darkness.
They shall discern the spirits and shall have knowledge of good and evil and represent and bring the Kingdom of God on earth. They shall be the light in the world and the salt of the earth, who through obedience to the Word and the Holy Spirit shall not always be loved by people but always be loved by God.
