CHRISTIAN FANTASY LAND

Reading in the book of Isaiah this morning a passage

of Scripture really stood out to me.  It is so realistic of

 the modern heresies that are in the "Christian Church" of 

today.

There are at least three of the most popular doctrines

in the Church that really are not taught in God's Word.

That is, unless you take the Scriptures out of context

and spin them around putting them in the order you

want, while ignoring other passages dealing with the

same subject.

It is just like when God said to the nation of Israel;

"For this is a rebellious people, false sons,

Sons who refuse to listen To the instructions

of the LORD; Who say to the seers, 'You must

not see visions"; And to the prophets, ' You 

must not prophesy to us what is right, Speak

to us; pleasant words, Prophesy illusions."

(Isaiah 30:9,10 NASB)  

The common thing I note about all of these heresies

is that they are more pleasant to us than the truth.

May I suggest that we take God's word just as it is

written - ALL OF IT.

SOURCE OF WISDOM

"O how I love your law!

It is my meditation all the day.

You through your commandments 

have made me wiser than my enemies;

for they are ever with me.

I have more understanding than all my teachers;

for your testimonies are my meditation.

I understand more than the ancients because I 

keep your precepts.

I have refrained my feet from every evil way,

that I might keep your word.

I have not departed from your judgments;

for you have taught me.

How sweet are your words to my taste,

yes, sweeter than honey to my mouth.

Through your precepts I get understanding;

therefore I hate every false way.

Your word is a lamp to my feet,

and a light to my path."

(Psalms 119:97-105 AKJV)
