The Danger Of False Prophets

The most dangerous type of false prophet is one who truly believes what he, or she, tries to teach. They try to force their opinions on you rather than encouraging you to open a Bible and learn the truth for yourself. They remind me of the catholic church in the days before the printing press, when they would not allow anyone to own a Bible because if people owned Bibles they would see that catholicism fits EVERY description of the antichrist. 
(See http://bloggingforthelord.blogspot.com/2011/09/catholicism-has-already-fulfilled-1260.html)
Satan is a Bible scholar. He knows it word for word, inside and out, backwards and forwards, and he knows how to twist scripture around to mislead even those who truly love the Lord into trying to teach and preach false prophesies. 
These false prophets who teach about a "secret rapture" and that life will go on after Jesus returns are misleading millions! They need to read the Bible. They need to read Matthew 24, 1 Corinthians 15, 2 Peter 3, 1 Thessalonians 5, Revelation 1, Revelation 6....
They need to be teaching that EVERY knee will bow because EVERYONE will see Jesus and know the rapture has taken place, and yes, there will be people left behind, nonbelievers and lovers of God who did not follow His will. But they will be left behind on a desolate earth with no power, no tv, no cellphones.... The works of the earth will be burned up. 2 Peter 3:10 
They need to be teaching that we are told, more than once, in Revelation that NO MAN will repent after Jesus returns. That in itself pretty much blows the whole "Left Behind" theory right out of the water.
Its IN THE BIBLE for EVERYONE to see. We are not living in the dark ages anymore, people can own a Bible and read the truth for themselves. No religious/political party like catholics can stop anyone, in a free country, from owning a Bible. But the sad thing is, rather than open one and read it, people are lazy or say they do not understand it and depend on other people's opinions. THAT is dangerous, and satan loves it! There is a reason why the Bible tells us that more people will go to hell than Heaven (Matthew 7). Because you CAN go to hell believing in and loving Jesus. There WILL be people who will be denied entrance into Heaven, begging God to let them in, trying to tell Him all they've done in His name:
Matthew 7:21-23 
21 Not everyone that saith to me, Lord, Lord will enter into the kingdom of Heaven, but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in Heaven. 
22 Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord have we not prophesied in thy name, and in Thy name have cast out devils? And in Thy name done many wonderful works?
23 And I will profess unto them, I never knew you, depart from me ye that work iniquity.
PLEASE open a Bible and read it. If you do not understand it pray and ask God to help you. He WILL help you understand it, if you truly want to. 
James 1:5 If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not and it shall be given him.
Your salvation, where you spend eternity, is up to YOU, not a man or woman on tv, Facebook, Twitter, at church, a neighbor, a friend.... It is your responsibility to read the Bible, learn the truth, and live for the Lord and do His will.


If reading this has made you angry, is it because you are one of the false prophets who teaches against what the Bible says?
Or is it because you are catholic and have not read the Bible to know the truth?
Or, could it be that God is convicting your heart to get to know Him and live for Him rather than living for yourself?
God created you and you are to live for Him, not the works of the earth that man developed to take your attention away from God.


Like I always say, do your own homework, research & learn the truth for yourself. If you find anything different than what my Bible says, please come back with legitimate scripture and tell me I'm wrong because I do NOT want to get God's word wrong and mislead anyone.
I love YOU, yes YOU, and pray that, love me or hate me, you will learn something from this and never forget it. :) :)
May God Bless You

Does God Hear Your Prayers?


Does it matter how you start a prayer? A short simple answer would be "yes", but I cannot just say that without an explanation. If you have been here before you know that I always tell you to do your own homework, research for yourself and do not take my word for anything. Not my word, or anyone else's. I am NOT trying to tell you how to pray. That is something personal between you and God. Like I always say, my blogs are just my opinions. And if just one blog can help just one person I would be so thankful! And if you are familiar with me you know I try to keep things short and to the point, which I will attempt to do this time.
How you pray DOES matter. Have you been praying to Jesus all your life? Or do you do as Jesus said to do and pray to the Father? Jesus said in Matthew 6 and Luke 11 that we are to begin our prayers with "Our Father which art in Heaven". And He tells us in John 14:6 that nobody can come to the Father but by Him. And He tells us in John 14:14 if we ask anything in His name He will do it. 
Therefore the only conclusion that I can come to is, pray to the Father and ask for it in Jesus' name.
Do you ask forgiveness for your sins before you ask God for things? God will not hear your prayer if you have sin in your life so it is best to start every prayer by asking forgiveness for your sins. You should ask forgiveness for all thoughts, actions, things you did not do that you should have done. And if you are having an issue with anyone, if you are mad at someone God will not hear you until that situation is resolved. It is in the "Lord's Prayer" to forgive people of their trespasses against us and God will forgive our trespasses against Him. We are also told in  Mark 11:25 that we must forgive others so God will forgive us. Continuous willful sin (living with a boyfriend or girlfriend, your choice of music, your lifestyle....) is a different story entirely. I cannot say that being a willful sinner that your prayers are heard. There is no evidence that says your prayers will be heard, but a lot of evidence that your prayers will not be heard. But, that is another blog....
And please thank our Father for everything He has done for you. I could never ask Him for anything without first thanking Him for everything that I have. I spend so much time thanking Him for everything that I have and that He has done for me my food gets cold while I'm saying the blessing. I cannot live in a country where I am free to worship Him knowing people are tortured and killed everyday in other countries for refusing to deny Him without thanking Him every time I pray for my Bible and my freedom to read it and worship Him. I cannot ask Him for anything without first thanking Him for my family, my home, the fact that I have food to eat, a bed to sleep in... Yes, I thank Him for everything because if it were not for Him I would have nothing! 
If you have not been starting your prayers with "Dear Father", "Dear God", or "Dear Lord", please start today and see what a change it makes! :)
And please tell Him you love Him. You tell your mom, dad, son, daughter... that you love them. This is your Father, your Heavenly Father, please tell Him you love Him. I know you know that He knows that you do, but He would really appreciate it if you tell Him.
Thanks for reading. Please come back soon. God Bless You :)
