The Right Way To Obey God. Part [18] 01/16/2025 (Evening thought)

2nd Corinthians 11:4 For if he that comes, preaches another Jesus, whom we have not preached or if you receive another spirit, which you have not received or another gospel which you have not accepted, you might well bear with him.

The problem with going with the flow, is that the flow usually goes downstream, and never upstream and because of this, you have two types of disciples in Christianity that have emerged in our day. One who obeys God partially, in everything that will not ruffle his or her feathers, and the other who will obey God, even when the truth might step on their toes. This dual discipleship has been brought about by the preaching of another Jesus, and another gospel.

2nd Corinthians 11: 13 For such are false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming themselves into the apostles of Christ. 14 And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light. 15 Therefore it is no great thing if his ministers also be transformed as the ministers of righteousness; whose end shall be according to their works.

Just for the record, there’s only one true gospel that has ever been endorsed and certified by God, and it is the one which presents Christ as our Savior, who accepts us as we are, but does not leave us where we are, but who instead provides truth and His Holy Spirit to lead believers into obedience. Any other gospel which does not lead to a radical change in the believer’s life experience, or does not require individuals to obey The Lord in everything, is designated a false gospel in the Bible, and is neither recognized, or endorsed by God.

Galatians 1:6 I marvel that you are so soon removed from him that called you into the grace of Christ unto another gospel, 7 Which is not another; but there be some that trouble you, and would pervert the gospel of Christ.

May God add His blessing to the study of His word. “Good night” and God bless!
