The UPROOTING of FALSE doctrine

 

JESUS declared:

Matthew 13:41

King James Version

41 The Son of man shall send forth his angels, 

and they shall gather out of his kingdom 

all things that offend, 

and them which do iniquity;


Is the doctrine you're being taught, the TRUE DOCTRINE of GOD?

How can one know?

JESUS has the answer.

For the LORD prophesied:

Matthew 15:13

King James Version

13 But he answered and said

Every plant, 

which my heavenly Father hath not planted, 

shall be rooted up.


It gives us believers great comfort, for apostle Paul did warn:.

1 Timothy 4:1

King James Version

4 Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, 

that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, 

giving heed to seducing spirits, 

and doctrines of devils;


Further,

2 Timothy 3:1-7

King James Version

3 This know also, 

that in the last days perilous times shall come.

2 For men shall be lovers of their own selves, 

covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, 

disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy,

3 Without natural affection, 

trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, 

despisers of those that are good,

4 Traitors, heady, highminded, 

lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God;

5 Having a form of godliness, 

but denying the power thereof: 

from such turn away.

6 For of this sort are they which creep into houses, 

and lead captive silly women laden with sins, 

led away with divers lusts,

7 Ever learning, 

and never able to come to the knowledge 

of the truth.


JESUS also warned us of forthcoming false Christs, and prophets.

Matthew 24:24

King James Version

24 For there shall arise false Christs, 

and false prophets, 

and shall shew great signs and wonders; 

insomuch that, 

if it were possible, 

they shall deceive the very elect.


If the very elect can be deceived, what about every day believers?

Where shall we get our help from?

As false gospels, teachers, and prophets abound, how can we discern God's TRUE DOCTRINE?

Again, JESUS saw to that.

He left us a Comforter.

The HOLY SPIRIT.

John 16:13-14

King James Version

13 Howbeit when he, 

the Spirit of truth, 

is come, 

he will guide you into all truth: 

for he shall not speak of himself; 

but whatsoever he shall hear, 

that shall he speak: 

and he will shew you things to come.

14 He shall glorify me

for he shall receive of mine, 

and shall shew it unto you.


The HOLY SPIRIT will help us remember EVERYTHING JESUS told us.

John 14:26

King James Version

26 But the Comforter, 

which is the Holy Ghost, 

whom the Father will send in my name, 

he shall teach you all things, 

and bring all things to your remembrance, 

whatsoever I have said unto you.


He will testify of the LORD.

John 15:26

King James Version

26 But when the Comforter is come, 

whom I will send unto you from the Father, 

even the Spirit of truth, 

which proceedeth from the Father, 

he shall testify of me:


He will reprove the world of sin.

John 16:8-11

King James Version

8 And when he is come, 

he will reprove the world of sin, 

and of righteousness, 

and of judgment:

9 Of sin, because they believe not on me;

10 Of righteousness, because I go to my Father, 

and ye see me no more;

11 Of judgment, because the prince of this world is judged.


The prince of the world never really stood a chance.

Much as he continues to deceive us, and distort the gospel.

We have steady help from the LORD.

SPIRIT is our TEACHER, for ALL THINGS CHRIST.

We will be able to discern God's TRUTH, through Spirit.

1 Corinthians 2:14

King James Version

14 But the natural man receiveth not 

the things of the Spirit of God

for they are foolishness unto him: 

neither can he know them

because they are spiritually discerned.


We will be guided on GOD's LAWS.

2 Timothy 3:16-17

King James Version

16 All scripture is given by inspiration of God, 

and is profitable for doctrine, 

for reproof, 

for correction, 

for instruction in righteousness:

17 That the man of God may be perfect, 

thoroughly furnished unto all good works.


As born again, and as believer, we will have a STRONG, and SURE foundation.

We will be SEALED with GOD's SPIRIT.

2 Timothy 2:19

King James Version

19 Nevertheless the foundation of God standeth sure, 

having this seal, 

The Lord knoweth them that are his

And, 

let every one that nameth the name of Christ 

depart from iniquity.
