Seven major facts and prophesies to consider about end-time Pastors



(Stop being deceived by their fame, popularity, generosity, works of miracles, eloquence and pseudo-righteousness messages) The Scripture cannot lie; _…by their fruits (not their works or exploits) you shall know them._ Matthew 7:15-20.


Note:They will not tag themselves with their real identity but the Scripture has tagged them already;


1. FEROCIOUS WOLVES IN SHEEP’S CLOTHING


 Jesus warned in Matthew 7:15 

Watch out for false prophets. They come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ferocious wolves. They act wickedly with magical and diabolic powers to enslave, extort and hypnotize members. (Jeremiah 23:11-40 (eph 16 & 21), 27:10,15; 29:8-9; Ezekiel 12:24). Jeremiah 14:14 reads; And the LORD said to me, "The prophets prophesy lies in My name. I have not sent them, commanded them, nor spoken to them; they prophesy to you a false vision, divination, a worthless thing, and the deceit of their heart.The common usage of ‘The Lord is telling me now’ fills their mouth and our pulpits. Ore, Beware!!!


2. APOSTLES OF “FALSE RIGHTEOUSNESS” (OSAS)

 Paul exposed them in 2 Corinthians 11:13-15 ‘Those men are not true apostles, they are false apostles, who lie about their work and disguise themselves to look like real apostles of Christ. Well, no wonder! Even Satan can disguise himself to look like an angel of light! So, it is no great thing if his servants disguise themselves to look like servants of righteousness. In the end they will get exactly what their actions deserve’. They convinced people to ‘claim’ Christ’s righteousness even as they continue sinning, being hypnotized that no man can be perfect as Christ commanded us Matthew 5:48. They are all Anti-Christ, preaching against what Jesus died and stands for. John in his epistle warned us against their deception package; 1John 3:7 Little children, let no one deceive you. He who practices (not claim) righteousness is righteous, just as He (Jesus) is righteous. (read different versions to affirm ‘act of righteousness’ against their ‘claim of righteousness’. Beware!!!


3. COMPLACENT TEACHERS & PASTORS (The specialize in motivating people with what they ‘want to hear’ not what they ‘need to hear’). They have much more crowd today.

 This is clearly expressed in 2 Timothy 4:3,4 For a time is coming when people will no longer listen to sound and wholesome teaching. They will follow their own desires and will look for teachers who will tell them whatever their itching ears want to hear. They will reject the truth and chase after myths. See how _the message version_ put it: 2 Tim 4:3:You’re going to find that there will be times when people will have no stomach for solid teaching, but will fill up on spiritual junk food--catchy opinions that tickle their fancy. They'll turn their backs on truth and chase mirages. Are you not in their nets already? Its always difficult to fall out of this trap. Beware!!! He that has hear let him hear what the Spirit is telling the church.


4. LYING & DUBIOUS RELIGIOUS LEADERS (PASTORS & TEACHERS)

 Peter exposed them in 2Peter 2:1; _False prophets appeared in the past among the people, and in the same way false teachers will appear among you. They will bring in destructive, untrue doctrines, and will deny the Master (JESUS) who redeemed them , and so they will bring upon themselves sudden destruction. 2Pe 2:2 Even so, many will follow their immoral ways; and because of what they do, others will speak evil of the Way of truth.* 2Pe 2:3 In their greed these false teachers will make a profit out of telling you made-up stories. For a long time now, their Judge has been ready, and their Destroyer has been wide awake!_. Have a careful look at all bold phrases that reveal their evil acts which are so rampart in our churches today. Please Beware!!! 


5. WORLDLY & MATERIALISTIC PASTORS (…their god is their belly???)

 Paul described them this way; Philippians 3:17-19; Dear brothers and sisters, pattern your lives after mine, and learn from those who follow our example. For I have told you often before, and I say it again with tears in my eyes, that there are many whose conduct shows they are really enemies of the cross of Christ. They are headed for destruction. Their god is their appetite, they brag about shameful things, and they think only about this life here on earth.The Lord rebuked and opposed their acclaimed glory in the letter to the church of Laodiceans; Revelation 3:17-19, You say, _'I am rich; I have acquired wealth and do not need a thing.' But you do not realize that you are wretched, pitiful, poor, blind and naked. I counsel you to buy from me gold refined in the fire, so you can become rich; and white clothes to wear, so you can cover your shameful nakedness; and salve to put on your eyes, so you can see. Those whom I love I rebuke and discipline. So be earnest, and repent. Be warned! Don’t say you were not told

 

6. APOSTATE PASTOR (CALLED BY GOD BUT DEVIATED BY PRESSURE, TREASURE, LEISURE OR PLEASURE)

 Thanks to Bro Peter who revealed them. 2 Peter 2:15; They have left the straightway and wandered off to follow the way of Balaam son of Beor, who loved the wages of wickedness…. 2Pe 2:17. These people are as useless as dried-up springs or as mist blown away by the wind. They are doomed to blackest darkness. 18 They brag about themselves with empty, foolish boasting. With an appeal to twisted sexual desires, they lure back into sin those who have barely escaped from a lifestyle of deception.19. They promise freedom, but they themselves are slaves of sin and corruption. For you are a slave to whatever controls you. Paul also said that; …They have form godliness but deny the power thereof. These are the trend of Pastors now, please beware!!!



7. GODLESS & WICKED PASTORS (with great influence on people)

 This is the most wicked among them all. They operate through the spirit of anti-Christ. Bro Jude wrote his book to expose and condemn them; Jude 1:3 Dear friends, although I was very eager to write to you about the salvation we share, I felt I had to write and urge you to contend for the faith that was once for all entrusted to the saints. Jud 1:4 For certain men whose condemnation was written about long ago have secretly slipped in among you. They are godless men, who change the grace of our God into a license for immorality and deny Jesus Christ our only Sovereign and Lord. This are called “Grace community of believers or Hyper grace”. They neglected the TRUTH aspect of Christ’s mission according to John 1:17. They redefine (misinterpret) grace and condemned (deny) every Spiritual growth activity that Jesus and Apostles laid down ( _...and deny Jesus Christ our only Sovereign and Lord_ ). They target students on campuses and establish churches that promote worldliness, sexual immoralities, lewdness, immoral dressing, fashions and hypocrisy. Any one that fall into their net, enters doom because the spirit of delusion will enslave them to believe their lies. 2 Thessalonians 2:9-11 confirmed this;     


 2Thess 2:9 _The coming of the lawless one is according to the working of Satan, with all power, signs, and lying wonders, 10. and with all unrighteous deception among those who perish, because they did not receive the love of the truth, that they might be saved. 11. And for this reason God will send them strong delusion, that they should believe the lie , 12. that they all may be condemned who did not believe the truth but had pleasure in unrighteousness.


The Simple way out:

Jeremiah 6:16,17: Thus says the Lord: "Stand in the ways and see, And ask for the old paths, where the good way is, And walk in it; Then you will find rest for your souls*_ . But they said, (The error >>) _'We will not walk in it.' 17 Also, I set watchmen over you, saying, 'Listen to the sound of the trumpet!' But they said, 'We will not listen.'_ 

He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches.


Matthew 7:13,14: "You can enter God's Kingdom only through the narrow gate. The highway to hell is broad, and its gate is wide for the many who choose that way. Mat 7:14 But the gateway to life is very narrow and the road is difficult, and only a few ever find it. See how the message version put it: "Don't look for shortcuts to God. The market is flooded with surefire, easygoing formulas for a successful life that can be practiced in your spare time. Don't fall for that stuff, even though crowds of people do. Mat 7:14 The way to life--to God! --is vigorous and requires total attention.

Brethren, Stop being deceived by human philosophy and public opinions, Ask the Holy Spirit to lead you to your Pastor and Church today. God still have remnants that stand for the Truth across the globe (2 Cor 2:17)



For deeper knowledge on the Ancient part and Narrow way indeed, I recommend to you attend; THE TRUTH SCHOOL OF MINISTRY (October 8-Dec 6 every Friday 4pm & Saturday 10am) at CAC Praise Chapel (The Truth Arena), #9, Ilara street, off Obalufon street, Ile-Ife, Osun State. Or Call Bro Unction Timothy Olufemi (The labourer in charge) +2348068918061.

Jesus is Lord.
