II. His Methods - His mode of operation and handling


Seek to enslave their followers.The Christian as the Bible itself, has a relationship with God based on freedom, and what this means for the believer, is that our lives can not be governed by doctrines or commandments of men which are usually very suffocating and slave.Galatians 5:1 Stand fast therefore in the liberty wherewith Christ hath made us free, and be not entangled again with the yoke of slavery. 13 For ye, brethren, were called to freedom, only use not liberty for an occasion to the flesh, but through love serve one another.God teaches us mostly by general principles and as obedient children who love God, live according to these principles to please His heart. Unfortunately, the false teacher subtly seeks to destroy that freedom. He wants to control his followers, and do not want Christians to think and live for themselves.Usually the way to enslave them is to impose their own interpretations of the Word of God on certain matters and the particular doctrines that interest you, especially those having to do with money and financial support. To strengthen this form of operation are: its "authority" over other advertising from time to time that are the head of the other members of the church and all his ministerial team because they are the ministers chosen by God, so is achieved by inducing his followers to impose their own concepts and plans.Unfortunately this subtle manipulation, there are people that are provided to support them because they are "leaders" who have been elected, not because they have a solid knowledge of the Word of God, but because false teachers know that these persons have little experience in I try to let them operate the Bible as their own personal agendas, also choose mostly wealthy people of the congregation who know that financially support the church. False is displayed as "experts", but that does not mean it that way to announce the four winds, but asking questions and suggestions for those working alongside them be guided by what he wants with this opaque and throw overboard the truth that says that God has placed the Holy Spirit in the heart of every believer to activate and work with consciousness, and the two (Holy Spirit and consciousness) guided by the Word of God, the believer can reach the whole truth. The false teacher ministers with the assumption that no less than he can correctly interpret the word of God, much less make important decisions.In addition to that attitude and desire hidden false teacher typically takes a position of "omnipotence" of the entire congregation. You can not do anything or decide anything if not, the other elders or leaders are not qualified if their "boss" is not present. The false teacher becomes a silent dictatorship, where only his own opinion has the force of law. This most often occurs subtly inducing their leaders to be "loyal" and "faithful" to God, ie God's work, but this is only a mask of deception, because in reality what he seeks is loyalty of the whole church to himself, to that end make a bad use of what the Bible says about the sheep that should be subject to their pastors so that the abuses and deceives and manipulates at will, making more than carry out their own agenda and interests.Assemble the structure and understanding of his followers that protects them perfectly because when the members see that they are acting improperly or are sinning, then the structure itself precludes denouncing them as Christ denounced the assembled structure of the religious leaders of his time. Remember how God punished all His children abuse, as in 1 Corinthians 5, Paul tells us to discipline the brothers who walk in sin. But mostly we see that for them to be "loyal and faithful Christian" is to ignore, cover up, and forgive the sins of inconsequential members and not to mention the leaders.But the opposite also happens is that when a false teacher is aware that within their own ranks has solid leaders in the Word of God, seeking by all means use what they tell you a secret ministry to discredit or indisponerlos front other leaders, this is because he knows that these leaders or that leader will not let the church handle at will and be a hindrance in their Machiavellian plans, have a famous preacher when he discovered a love affair with his secretary would not get off the pulpit or admit his sin, "If I fall, fall Fundamentalism in the world!" This is the opposite of what we see in the Bible, as to the requirements for ministers, when they are disqualified, should get off by himself, or otherwise the church where they work the dismiss. But as in most cases the churches, the bank accounts of the church and all the resources of the church are in the name of one or two shepherds usually relatives, then it is impossible to obey the biblical mandate. This is because they have set up a church structure that makes it impossible to dismiss them because they own the church.But we need to remember that the Bible says that God gave gifts to believers for the proper functioning of the body of Christ, ie of the Church. It is literally like a body member is not independent of the other because all members are important in the body, they support each other and so it is with every believer each has a specific gift, and not restricted or limited to the other, all work together. Do not walk on your hands or ears, or listen to the language or try the taste with their feet. Each has his gift, and is on the body of Christ to exercise his gift, there is no domain of one member to another member of the body, so the Bible emphasizes over and over that the ONLY head is Christ, meditate in the words of Christ, on the governance of the church:He told them: In truth, drink my cup, and with the baptism I am baptized, be baptized, but to sit on my right or left is not mine to give, but those for whom it is prepared by my father. 24 When the ten heard it, were angry with the two brothers. 25 Then Jesus, calling them, he said, know that the rulers of the Gentiles lord it over them, and their high officials exercise authority over them. 26 More of you will not, c but whosoever will be great among you shall be your servant, 27 and whoever would be first among you shall be your servant, d 28 as the Son of man came not to be served but to serve, and to give His life a ransom for many.The Church of Christ is a family business is not an army or aEphesians 2:19 Now therefore ye are strangers and sojourners, but fellow citizens with the saints and members ofthe family of God, 3:14 For this cause I bow my knees unto the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, 15 from whom every family in heaven and on earth,The Bible says that the redeemed (pastors, leaders and members of the local church) and its relationship with other members of Christ's body are like a "family" because they are all brothers. The picture that God uses to show how it should be the sibling relationship is that of a family where there are adult and mature, others are young, and other babies. A false teacher will never let a mature brother in the faith into question or be held accountable to something they see is wrong, either in the life of the minister or the church, yet the Bible shows the following:Ephesians 4:2 with all humility and gentleness, bearing with one another in love, 3 endeavoring to keep the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace, 6 one God and Father of all, who is over all and through all and in all. 11 And he gave some, apostles, some prophets, some evangelists, some pastors and teachers, 12 for the perfecting of the saints for the work of ministry, for building up the body of Christ, 13 until we all reach unity in the faith and knowledge of the Son of God, unto a perfect man (mature), the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ, 14 to no longer be children, tossed to and fro with every wind of doctrine, by the sleight of men in their deceitful craftiness craftiness of deceitful plotting, 15 but speaking the truth in love, may grow up into him in all that is the head, even Christ,We can see clearly that God has made the organization of the church so that the objective sought is the maturity and the chiefdom or headship of some members in this organization as we can also read in 1 Corinthians about the gifts, God gifts each equipped with teaching, administration, etc.. to handle the affairs of the local church, but all in the context of God's family, ie brothers in faith, follow God, not men. It is true that God has left men in charge that we will not mature for a doctrine to another, for our lack of insight or understanding, but this does not mean that these siblings have a higher position or leadership, but are merely functions designated by the Head that is Christ.But the authority that God has given to these men is to become the owners or managers of the church, but that each individual Christian is mature and able to be an instrument equipped for every good work that is a mature man (in understanding and in his life) as Jesus Christ. It is interesting to study and the New Testament does not tell us the name of a pastor or an elder as exclusive charge of the church. All leaders were under the authority of each other and even ministered publicly, its importance among siblings was not the leaders or dictators. Besides that the decisions taken should be made at a ministerial body where there is no authoritative head, meaning that is ultimately decides whether manipulating or suggesting, but being guided by the principles of all the Word of God and with the direction of the Holy Spirit, this is vital for the warnings that the Word of God makes us about false teachers:Jude 1:4 For certain men crept in unawares, who were before of old ordained to this condemnation, ungodly men, turning on the grace of our God, and denying the only Lord God and our Lord Jesus Christ."Debauchery" is an orgy full of life, which have been removed or ignored the moral restraints that every child of God should be observed, ie allow these people to do what the people they please, but this bad or is incorrect. It is true that we are not down the law but under grace, but that should not be taken as a license to do inside and outside the church all that fallen human mind wants or wishes. But this is often seen in many churches today, where many false teachers who call themselves pastors, apostles and prophets even to allow parties and shows the world music style within their churches, allow you to organize events for fight , mime, theater mundane, etc..Practically speaking, false teachers sometimes proclaim "liberty" to all appearance of evil and reject the restrictions of Christian standards for themselves and their followers. It is an abomination to be practiced such things as permitted by God, is a boast and a very big rebellion to what God hates, the Bible states:1 John 3:20 For if our heart condemn us, greater than our heart is God, and knoweth all things.We must obey what God clearly commands us in the Bible, and then follow our consciences, but what we can do is to think that all that the world does what we do within the church. We can not excuse our actions when the Bible indicates that what is being done is not approved by the Bible, so that's another mark of false teachers, who have turned the grace of God into lasciviousness, remember God's warning :James 3:1 My brethren, ye be not many masters, knowing that we will receive greater condemnation.
