COVETOUSNESS SHALL THEY
WITH FEIGNED WORDS
MAKE MERCHANDISE OF
YOU
|
1)But there were false
prophets also among the
people, even as there shall
be false teachers among you,
who privily shall bring in
damnable heresies, even
denying the LORD that
bought them, and bring upon
themselves swift destruction
2) And many shall follow
their pernicious ways; by
reason of whom the way of
truth shall be evil spoken of
3) And through covetousness
shall they with feigned words
make merchandise of you;
whose judgment now of a
long time lingereth not, and
their damnation slumbereth
not

WHILE THEY PROMISE THEM
LIBERTY, THEY THEMSELVES
ARE THE SERVANT OF

18) For when they speak
great swelling words of
vanity, they allure through the lusts of the flesh, through
much wantonness, those that
were clean escape from
them who live in error
19) While they promise them
liberty, they themselves are
the servants of corruption;
for of whom a man is
overcome, of the same is he
brought in bondage

performed the thoughts of
his heart: in the latter days ye
shall consider it perfectly
21: I have not sent these
prophets, yet they ran: I have
not spoken to them, yet they
prophesied
22: But if they had stood in
my counsel, and had caused
my people to hear my word,
then they should have turn
them from their evil way,
and from the evil of their
doings
23: Am I a GOD at hand,
saith the LORD, and not a
GOD afar off?
24 :Can any hide himself in
secret places that I shall not
see him?
25: I have heard what the
prophets said, that prophesy
lies in my name, saying ,I
have dreamed, I have
dreamed
26: How long shall this be in
the heart of the prophets
that prophesy lies? Yea, they
are prophets of the deceit of
their own heart

THEIR HEART GOETH AFTER
COVETOUSNESS
31: And they come unto
thee as the people cometh,
and they sit before thee as
my people and they hear thy
words, but they will not do
them for with their mouth
they show much love, but
their heart goeth after their
covetousness.

THEY GO AFTER
ACCUMULATION OF WEALTH
People focus more on money
than GOD

HYPOCRITES
MATTHEW 6:1-4
TAKE HID THAT YE DO NOT
YOUR ALMS BEFORE MEN
TO BE SEEN OF THEM
JOHN 15:44 Man like self
recognition than recognition
that comes from GOD only
|
1: Take heed that ye do not
your alms(CHARITIES) before
men, to be seen of them:
otherwise ye have no reward
of your Father which is in
Heaven
2: Therefore when thou
doest thine alms, do not
sound a trumpet before thee
as the HYPOCRITES do in the
synagogues and in the
streets, that they may have
glory of men. Verily I say
unto you, They have their
reward
3: But when thou doest alms
let not thy left hand know
what thy right hand doeth
4: That thine alms may be in
secret: and thy father which
seeth in secret himself shall
reward thee openly
|
ALMS GIVING BEFORE MEN
JUST TO GAIN RECOGNITION
BY THE GIVER(HYPOCRITES)
THE RIGHT MOTIVE OF
GIVING: Do it out of an inner
compulsion to give and help,
out of intense love and
genuine concern
*JUST LOVE AND GIViNG:
Secretly, quietly, privately
avoid recognition
* You must set out to meet
the need of the world

PRAY TO BE SEEN BY MEN
5: And when thou prayest
thou shalt not be as the
HYPOCRITES are for they
love to pray standing in the
synagogues and in the
corners of the streets, that
they may be seen of men
Verily I say unto you they
have their reward.
6: But thou, when thou
prayest enter into thy closet,
and when thou hast shut thy
door, pray to thy FATHER
which is in secret shall
reward thee openly
7: But when ye pray, use not
vain repetitions as the
heathen do for they think
that they shall be heard for
their much speaking
8: Be not ye therefore like
unto them: for your father
knoweth what things ye have
need of, before ye ask
|
PRETENDER MAN PLEASERS
CHRIST REFERS TO
PERSONAL PRAYER: when ye
pray go into your room, close
the door and pray to your
father, who is unseen, then
your father, who sees what is
done in secret, will reward
you openly
*The private prayers and
inner need have to be met
*The man who prays in public
receive his reward FROM
MEN

COUNTENANCE THEY
APPEAR UNTO MEN TO FAST
|
16: Moreover when ye fast,
be not, as the hypocrites, of a
sad countenance; for they
disfigure their faces that they
may appear unto men to fast
Verily I said unto you, they
have their reward
17; But thou, when thou
Fastest, anoint thine head
and wash thy face
18; That thou appear not
unto men to fast, but unto
thy FATHER which is in
secret; and thy father, which
seeth in secret, shall reward
thee openly.

6: He answered and said
unto them, well hath Isaiah
prophesied of you
HYPOCRITES, as it is written,
this people honoreth me
with their lips, but their heart
is far from me
7: Howbeit in vain do they
worship me, teaching for
doctrines the commandment
of men
8: For laying aside the
command of GOD, ye hold
the tradition of men, as the
washing of pots and cups:
and many such like things ye
do
9: And he said unto them full
well ye reject the
commandment of GOD, that
ye may keep your own
tradition
|
MAKING THE WORD OF GOD
NO EFFECT BY MAN
TRADITION: Is man made who
teaches his own doctrine and
proclaim it who put his rule
before GOD’s rule
*Mans tradition nullifies the
word of GOD

21)JESUS saith unto her,
woman, believe me the hour
cometh, when ye shall
neither in this mountain, nor
at Jerusalem, worship the
father
22) Ye worship ye Know not
what: we know what we
worship for salvation is of the
Jews
23) But the hour cometh,
and now is, when the true
worshipers shall worship the
father inspirit and in truth;
for the father seeketh such
to worship him
|
RELIGIONIST : The place of
worship is not important no
longer the temple or other
particular location
GOD presence now dwells in
the hearts and lives of his
people, his people worship
him wherever they are, and
they can worship him every
day all day long

ACT 13 :6-12
O FULL OF ALL SUBTLITY
AND ALL MISCHIEF THOU
CHILD OF THE DEVIL, THOU
ENEMY OF RIGHTEOUSNESS
|
6) And when they had gone
through the isle unto Paphos,
they found a certain sorcerer,
a false prophet ,a Jew, whose
name was bar Jesus
7) Which was with the
deputy of the country, Segius
Paulus, a prudent man; who
called for Barnabas and Saul,
and desired to hear the word
of GOD
8) But Elymas the sorcerer
for so is his name by
interpretation withstood
them, seeking to turn away
the deputy from the faith
9 Then Saul who is called
Paul filled with the holy
Ghost, set his eyes on him
10) And said, O full of all
subtilty and all mischief,
thou child of the devil, thou
enemy of righteousness, wilt
thou cease to pervert the
right ways of the LORD
11) And now, behold, the
hand of the LORD is upon
thee, and thou shalt be blind,
not seeing the sun for a
season. And immediately
there fell on him a mist and a
darkness, and he went about
seeking some to lead him by
the hand
12)then the deputy, when he
saw what was done,
believed, being astonished at
the doctrine of the LORD
|
FALSE RELIGIONIST:
THE JUDGMENT: by the holy
spirit for blindness and
darkness against all religious
philosophy science and
sorceries apart from CHRIST
|
|
1 JOHN 4:1-3
BELIEVE NOT EVERY SPIRIT
BUT TRY THE SPIRIT
WHETHER THEY ARE OF GOD
|
1)Beloved, believe not every
spirit, but try the spirits
whether they are of GOD:
because many false prophets
are gone out into the world
2) Hereby know ye the spirit
of God every spirit that
confesseth that JESUS CHRIST
is come in flesh is GOD
3) And every spirit that
confesseth not that JESUS
CHRIST is come in the flesh is
not of GOD; and this is that
spirit of antichrist, whereof
ye have heard that it should
come; and even now already
is it in the world
