OP, remember this:
Matthew 10:16 "i send you out as sheep amidst the wolves."
also,
you cannot save anybody and you can't bring a single soul to the Lord.
all you can do is spread the GOOD news of the gospel.
curses, plucked scripture verses, and fear mongering will bring the foam to the wolves mouths.
focus on the good news.
and remember that only God can bring a heart toward Him.
Quoting: Salt Another great selection Salt but did you read what Jesus said before it?
Matthew 10:5-6 These twelve Jesus sent out and commanded them, saying: “Do not go into the way of the Gentiles, and do not enter a city of the Samaritans.
But go rather to the lost sheep of the house of Israel.Do you guys ever listen to what Jesus actually says?
Let me explain it in simple terms.
These 12 disciples had been in Jesus' presence. They had first hand experience and the personal teaching by Jesus, and yet he said that to them. Why?
Self proclaimed disciples aren't real disciples. They weren't hand picked by Jesus, and yet they assume they have the full knowledge. Jesus collected these disciples as he went around!
The actual disciples were instructed
NOT to go to Gentiles or Samaritans.
The puzzle for you guys is - why?
So when you assume that you can go preach aren't you placing yourself above the disciples? Have you been personally hand picked and trained by Jesus face to face or are you relying on the teachings of men?
Don't Let the evil among us triumph by misquoting "Thou Shall Not Judge." Christ was speaking of hypocrisy..if you yourself are involved in a particular evil thing, it is hypocritical for you to say that someone else doing the same thing is wrong.
The truth is you cannot "flee evil" if you do not first judge it as evil. Learning to discern evil is the essence of spiritual maturity. You are, in fact, commanded to discern evil..i.e "judge righteously."
The root of manipulation (witchcraft) is to call something good when it is not. It is always best to stand with what God says in His word whenever it is clear to you.
Don't fall for the "judge the sin not the sinner" either...this is not found anywhere in scripture. Consider what is found in scripture... "as a man thinks, therefore he is".
You can reveal darkness. (TV and movie stars might be seen as teachers able to influence many). Such as these should be exposed as you have done. Now go on..don't make an obsession out of it. Present the truth..if others do not receive it "shake the dust off your feet"..and move on.
Remember compassion..such as these are dead already..the Christian's path is to bring life
Quoting: Anonymous Coward 26333357 Believers throw around four letter words like evil far too easily.
Do you believe in Mosaic law? Do you really believe your GOD would agree to the atrocities committed in his name in the OT?
Were atrocities such as war crimes, stonings, slavery, ethnic cleansing, infanticide and murder really approved by GOD?
Are you sure? Aren't these things evil? How would you like them done to your family?
So you are preaching GOD would approve of such atrocities?
GOD would never agree to such things! Shame on you!
There is your dilemma - Believe that GOD is the horrendous being you so willingly accept because it is in an old book or raise your standards!
That is what is so laughable about this line in your post "The root of manipulation (witchcraft) is to call something good when it is not."
Are war crimes and atrocities good? Isn't that exactly what you are doing by accepting these crimes as from GOD?
Do you believe GOD would agree to such crimes? I hope he is forgiving when he meets you!
Remember Jesus said
Mark 10:31 "But many that are first shall be last; and the last first."Do you consider yourself saved?
