Throughout the centuries, many false doctrines have arisen that are an insult to God and didn’t draw Christians closer to God, but further away from God. These false doctrines have led Christians astray and made them independent from God, UJesu Kristu, iZwi, noMoya oNgcwele. All you have to do is use the right words, imfundo, izindlela, and formulas and pray and fast according to the right principles and you will experience God and get what you want. Kodwa akusebenzi ngaleyondlela eMbusweni kaNkulunkulu, lapho uJesu Kristu eyiNkosi. Jesus is the Head and decides and His Body should yield to Him and obey Him and do His will and not the other way around. These false doctrines exist, because many people don’t want to submit to the Word and obey the words of God. And so they invent all kinds of false doctrines that are an insult to God.
Why don’t people want to submit to the Word?
Why do people don’t want to submit to the Word and follow the way of the Word and do what the Word has commanded to do, instead of developing all kinds of complicated doctrines, (umthandazo) imfundo, izindlela, and formulas for some kind of self-satisfaction, amandla angaphezu kwawemvelo, and manifestations, and obtain the promises of God through natural means? Why do people go outside the frames of the Bible and enter ways, which they shouldn’t enter? Impendulo ithi, ngoba inyama ayifuni ukufa (Funda futhi: ‘The painful process of dying').
The gospel of Jesus Christ is not difficult. It’s just the people, who are unspiritual and walk after the lusts and desires of the flesh and are not willing to submit to the Word and the will of God, who makes the gospel difficult.
False doctrines derive from soulish people, who are not willing to submit to God
False doctrines arise because people refuse to lay down their own lives and submit to God and His will and obey His words. Abazimisele alikhumule ikhehla kanye gqoka umuntu omusha futhi ngenxa yalokho, they develop from their soul all kinds of philosophies, izindlela, imfundo, and ordinances that may seem spiritual and Biblical, but totally miss the mark.
Khumbula, usathane tempted man ngamazwi kaNkulunkulu, and the devil also tempted Jesus Christ ngamazwi kaNkulunkulu.
And the devil still uses the words of God and changes the words of God in such a subtle manner, to tempt those, who don’t know the Word and don’t walk after the Spirit, and make them believe his lies, and follow and preach his lies.
Since they are carnal and have a carnal mind with an Old Covenant mindset, they go back to the Old Covenant, because the Old Covenant was a covenant between God and His carnal people and therefore was meant for the carnal man, who belongs to the generation of the old man (indoda ewile), and take something out of it and develop an own theory, indlela, formula and/or strategy for the flesh and apply them in the New Covenant.
And so they come up with all kinds of new doctrines to obtain the position of the new man and God’s promises for the new man through natural means, that won’t cost them anything
A gospel that won’t cost people anything
Because the people want a gospel that won’t cost them anything and they don’t have to do anything, but will only profit them. Because of this mentality, they become offended and angry and/or run away when they are confronted with the truth of God and His Word and are nowhere to be seen.
Because of this mentality and behavior, many believers, who may have started right, have succumbed and compromised by adjusting the words of God and change the truth of God, so that the gospel is no longer an offend to people and the gospel won’t cost the believers anything, but they will only be blessed and may live after the flesh doing their own will, with the comforting idea in the back of their mind, that they are saved from hell and that their future is in heaven.
“Uma umuntu ezoza emva kwaMi, azidele, athabathe isiphambano sakhe, and follow Me”
But if a person won’t lay down his or her own life and by faith in Jesus Christ will not be born again, then the final destination will not be heaven but hell. These are the words of Jesus Christ.
UJesu wabe esethi kubafundi bakhe, Uma noma yimuphi umuntu ezongilandela, azidele, athabathe isiphambano sakhe, futhi ungilandele. Ngokuba yilowo nalowo othanda ukusindisa ukuphila kwakhe uyakulahlekelwa yikho: futhi noma ngubani olahlekelwa yimpilo yakhe ngenxa yami uyakuthola (Mathewu 16:24-25)
UJesu waphendula wathi kuye, Ngiqinisile, ngempela, ngithi kuwe, Ngaphandle kokuthi umuntu azalwe ngokusha, Akakwazi ukubona uMbuso kaNkulunkulu (UJohane 3:3)
UJesu waphendula, Ngiqinisile, ngempela, ngithi kuwe, Ngaphandle kokuthi umuntu azalwe ngamanzi langoMoya, Akakwazi ukungena embusweni kaNkulunkulu. Lokho okuzelwe yinyama kuyinyama; Futhi lokho okuzelwe nguMoya kungumoya (UJohane 3:5-6)
If you don’t enter the Kingdom of God during this life on earth, you shall not enter the Kingdom of God when you die. After you die, you will go to the one, you have listened to and whom you have obeyed during your life on earth. Because you belong to the one you listen to and obey.
And so many false doctrines have arisen from the carnal mind that are lies and cause confusion, disorder, despondent, ukubaba, and exhaustion and toss the believers to and fro and lead them to destruction.
Izimfundiso zamanga, that may seem spiritual and godly, just like the people, who invented these false doctrines, kodwa eqinisweni, these doctrines are an insult to God and the umsebenzi wokuhlenga of Jesus Christ and deny His rulership and His supreme authority and power and His creation; umuntu omusha.
Izimfundiso zamanga eziyinhlamba kuNkulunkulu
Manje ngiyanincenga, bazalwane, mark them which cause divisions and offences contrary to the doctrine which ye have learned; futhi uzigweme. Ngoba labo abakhonza njengeNkosi yethu uJesu Kristu, Kepha esiswini sabo; Futhi ngamazwi amahle nezinkulumo ezinhle zikhohlisa izinhliziyo ezilula (AmaRoma 16:17-18)
There are many false doctrines about a.o. different mantles (cloaks), amazinga, anointings, amanzi angcwele, ukuvuza, izithiyo, iziqalekiso zesizukulwane, isibusiso nesiqalekiso, God’s love, umusa kaNkulunkulu, contemplative prayer, heavenly portals, caravans of camels, the courts of heaven, the Elijah paradigm, purgatory and so on (Funda futhi: ‘Lithini ibhayibheli ngezinkundla zezulu?').
In addition, there are all kinds of strange things and rituals practiced, like calling and invoking the Holy Spirit, grave sucking (mantle grabbing), lighting a candle, visiting graves and remember and honor the dead, praying for the deceased, casting out demons through means of ubhapathizo lwamanzi, Imigudu Yemililo, throwing fireballs, Ukucabanga kobuKristu, I-yoga yobuKristu, Ubuciko bokulwa bobuKristu, Christians astrology, Amakhadi e-tarot yobuKristu, and readings, njll. (Funda futhi: ‘Ungabathandazela abangasekho? futhi ‘Ungakwazi yini ukuhlukanisa okungokomoya namafilosofi nemikhuba yaseMpumalanga?‘)
But where are these doctrines and practices mentioned in the New Covenant in the Bible?
Where do we read about the apostles visiting the graves of men of God and lay on their graves to receive a special anointing? Abantu, who do this are occultists, who belong to the dead and visit the dead and feed their flesh with the power (amandla) of the death.
Where do we read about the apostles making a fire tunnel for the disciples to run through? Or throwing (ngokomoya) fireballs to each other? Ngokuyikho du, ndawo. Since they are occult and derive from the flesh and the kingdom of darkness.
All these practices and doctrines are an insult to God, because by believing and practicing these doctrines, people say that God is not enough, that the work of Jesus Christ is not sufficient and not finished, the position in Christ and the Name of Jesus Christ is not powerful enough and that the Holy Spirit, Who dwells in the new man is not good enough.
Kuyisono, that many people rather be clothed with a mantle of Elisha and receive a double portion of the spirit of Elijah, than that they are clothed with Christ and receive the Holy Spirit.
The new man is complete in Christ
Xwayani funa kube khona oniphanga ngefilosofi nangenkohliso eyize, ngokwesiko labantu, emva kwemithetho yomhlaba, futhi hhayi emva kukaKristu. Ngoba kuye kuhlale konke ukugcwala kobuNkulunkulu ngokomzimba. Futhi nina niphelele kuYe, Which is the Head of all principality and power (AbaseKolose 2:8-10)
If you are born again and are no longer walking after the flesh, kodwa ngoMoya, you don’t need a special ukugcotshwa and the laying on of hands of people for all kinds of spiritual gifts, ngoba wena Ogcotshiweyo as son of God and have received the Holy Spirit (ngokusebenzisa a.o. the laying on of hands).
If you are born again you don’t have to call upon and invoke the Holy Spirit with a song, imikhuleko, or other rituals, since the Holy Spirit already abides in you. UMoya oNgcwele awufiki futhi uhambe, njengaseSivumelwaneni Esidala, but the Holy Spirit abides in you permanently (Funda futhi: ‘‘Back to the Old Covenant‘).
Uma uzalwa kabusha, you don’t need specific information about the demonic, because through the resurrection of your spirit from the dead and through the Word and the Holy Spirit you have gained insight into the spiritual realm and will discern the spirits.
You don’t need natural means, imfundo, izindlela, kanye namafomula, since you are connected with God in Christ through the Holy Spirit and have received in Him all power and authority.
