ATTACKS contemporary biblical foundations

INTRODUCTION No one can deny that one of the characteristics of recent times, is the delusion manifested among scholars doctrinal tenets and trials. No one to teach something without foundation. Each teacher or preacher who stands behind a pulpit, have to support their teaching, and for that, the Bible misused, has been a veritable breeding ground for the spread of real attacks against the biblical foundations. For example, the teachers that arise in the mid seventies, Paul Crouch, Jim Baker, Rex Humbard, Billy Graham etc., with innovative ideas within the people of God, emphasizing prosperity and conquest through ecumenical strategies, or the famous David Cho (ex Paul Yonggi Cho), John Wimber, Benny Hinn, Morris match, among others that appeared at the beginning of the nineties, have based their teaching in the Bible. Today we have a number of "teachers" that following the same steps, instruct with false teachings, however, all based on the Bible. This is where the question arises: How is it that there are so many different teachings based on the same book? To answer this question it is necessary to study the currents of thought that are invading Bible schools and seminaries, which have become true factories apostles taught fraudulent deceit of their own heart. It is not the literal value of the scriptures what prevails, but more picturesque interpretation, poignant or profound, is the one chosen and taught. The apostle Paul gives us a warning that charges a surprising effect because it is just the is happening today: "But the Spirit explicitly says that in later times some will abandon the faith and follow deceiving spirits and doctrines of demons" 1 Timothy 4:1 Attacks against the biblical, are part of the strategy of the father of lies and his demons. The cluster of erroneous doctrines and a large crowd has apostatized, ie turn the truth into lies, religion is the show that we can clearly make out that our times are the end and the return of the Lord Jesus Christ must occur at any time. This time we will study the currents of thoughts and examples that allow us to understand the origin of the attacks to the biblical contemporaries. 1. - Religious syncretism The dictionary defines syncretism as "reconciliation of ideas, doctrines or postures that are inherently in conflict or diametrically opposed to each other." Today, the biblical misinterpretation has led to the adoption of a myriad of customs, rites, entertainment, etc.., whose origins lie outside the will of God and are in full rivalry with biblical precepts. A this adoption is called syncretism and the desire of all is to reconcile opposing doctrines or beliefs openly, and pretend to transform a particular purpose. Such reasoning practiced every day in most congregations, allowed free access of ecumenism in the church and the inclusion of aberrant practices that attempt to sound doctrine. For example, rock music or hip hop music styles were created in a spirit of social rebellion and deliberate consent to the use of drugs, alcohol and sex for propagation. Many argue that this music can be used to rescue young propagate therefore necessary Christianize. This is syncretism. remember the words of Cho Yonngi Korean pastor who approved the idea of taking matters occult and Christianize in form of Christianity. He said: "... if the devil can perform such healings, why Christ's church can not do much more? (Book the Fourth Dimension) The consequence of all this religious syncretism that is incorporating more and more mundane practices within the church, are being seen very clearly. Certainly the crowds that follow this type of Christendom has no intention of knowing God in depth and seriousness. Let's do an experiment: for one month Quitémosle rock music, a young man who claims to have been made ​​through it, sometámoslo devotional meetings and intense study of the Word of God, and see the results. It almost certainly will not attend meetings. I've seen, no one has told me. Did being filled the church, convinced through music, dance and events attraction? Or of true converts by the sovereign grace of God who operates by his powerful word? Make no mistake, the results of the blessing of God, not numeric. "Because strait is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life, and few there be that find it" (Matthew 7:14) It is time that we say enough of human reasoning, reengineering analysis within the church and human strategies to "save souls." We must understand that only the grace of God will transform the young drug addict or a criminal. We can not claim to provide power and effectiveness to the Word of God, which is full of power, is absurd and offensive to his sovereign grace. Imagine that Christ would have said to the adulteress, adultery continues to rescue adulterers. The exemplary music ... It is very common to hear ideas of modernization within the church, and specifically regarding music. traditional hymns, historically approved, and are not sought or valued by this wave of practitioners of the "new worship". Finding numerical results and transform the church into a core attractive to the world, has given rise to a veritable flood religious syncretism, trying to merge the sacred with the profane in order to evangelize. Nevertheless, the subject does not withstand analysis, the match and pretend to replace traditional hymns for the new worship, reveals the spiritual state indigent and the ruin of the church. The compositions are true traditional doctrinal studies, full of praise to Christ and his grace. The new praise does nothing to repeat a few sentences and extol human virtue on the grace of God, and to talk about the music that accompanies these compositions starving because almost erotic and sensual rhythms rise today and praise to God, are really unpresentable. 's new worship aims to meet the old man, not spiritual. It is a range of sounds, melodies and rhythms that invite the jiggling. The Bible is very specific in declaring what is the line of the songs that should be within the church, see: "... Speaking to yourselves in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody in your hearts to the Lord" Ephesians 5:19 "singing with grace in your hearts to God in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs" Colossians 3:16 In both texts, the adjective that qualifies the word singing is spiritual. Chants high God must have this stamp. The spiritual songs point to lift up Christ and his work with the letter, and raise the spirit to God, with music. No doubt that the new worship lacks this principle. While the letter may speak of Christ, but the music ruins everything. 's very important to consider the type of music we use in our meetings, because we are not to please ourselves, but we must check what is acceptable God (Ephesians 5:10) A God ever have pleased the mixtures. Submit the text of John 3: 16 to the sounds of hip-hop, salsa or stridency of an electric guitar, is like trying to join the oil and vinegar. This is a matter of truism, however human pride prevents categorically accept as truth and radical. 's new worship has allowed the emergence of many performers who have found a niche succulent commercial rents. The medium forces them to behave within the parameters of secularism. The sensuality in women, such as Jacy Velasquez is to say the least, shocking and circus men acting as Marcos Witt, does not merit further comment. They are the fruits of this "new worship" in times of apostasy. Currently, the new praise and is deeply rooted in many congregations that have subsequently turned freedom into licentiousness. This "license" has allowed natural habits of the world, have been deliberately incorporated into the meetings. It follows the sad fact that instead of having a Christianized world, we have a worldly church. Coffee concert "Christian" fashion show "Christian" recitals "Christians", completed and drinks "Christians", etc., Are some of the activities that many congregations practice pretext that Christ has made ​​us free. 'clothing with little modesty of women or long hair, hoops and ribbons in men, the sensual music as "praise", etc., are classic characteristics of today's Christians. This has happened due to misunderstanding of the meaning of grace and freedom that God has given us, and not understanding the difference between a legalistic biblical interpretation and other fearful and subservient to the instructions and wishes of the Lord. "Why call ye me, Lord, Lord, 'and not do what I say"? (Luke 6: 46) The other time I was able to write an email to a brother of a well known Christian congregation of Santiago. They were doing an invitation for inscribiesen brothers in martial arts classes "Christian" to develop next. I pointed out that there seemed to be some consistency in the scriptures with such highly occult disciplines, and cite some biblical passages that do not endorse in any way, defense practices. Unfortunately, this brother before meditating and find answers in the Word of God, they just told me I was a legalistic and had to understand that the grace of God had made ​​them free. Following this, I began to ponder of freedom to which Christ has called us, coming to the conclusion that this freedom granted by the grace of God, should be subject and subordinate to the Word of God, and it teaches us that while all things are lawful, not all agree or build (1 Corinthians 6: 12/10: 23). Therefore, given the freedom in Christ by the grace of God, is in complete subordination to what suits and builds, as the Bible states. Not to be confused with libertinism grace or legalism with true submission to biblical precepts given to the church. Briefly, syncretism in its broad spectrum, not the formula that God has given us to be effective in our task evangelize. We can not approve the idea of taking materials pagans of Christian dress and deliver it as a panacea spiritual world. God never approved the mixtures with idolatry and the customs of the nations. Who has authorized us today to mix, towards evangelization, light and darkness? Meditate on this, and we justify them on the false interpretation of freedom that gives us the grace of God, and not discard this observation, saying that only a legalistic and pharisaical analysis. Behold what God teaches us: "What communion hath light with darkness? What harmony has Christ with Belial? What agreement has the temple of God with idols? ... Come out from among them and be separate, says the Lord, and touch not the unclean thing "(2 Corinthians 6:14-18) 2. - Religious relativism The concept of relativism basically aims to eliminate any possibility of the absolute. According to this school of thought, anything and everything is totally all depends on the point of view of the beholder. This idea has become entrenched in the Christian church. Today there rises the absolutist concept of truth, but presents a distorted idea of it. He says, "you have your truth, I have mine." This philosophy has allowed the success of both ecumenism. The formula for uniting the different faiths, must have the ingredient of relativism. Many have defended the famous phrase: "The doctrine divides us, but love unites us" and accept that premise obviously going to undergo relative idea of truth. Relativism has given a strong impetus to unify all religions and has invested much in the dissemination of any idea, is this mystical or religious, that points to the union of the different faiths. was under this premise that is born in New York in 1847 the Theosophical Society, founded by a woman occultist (medium) called Helena Blavatsky and whose teaching was addressed to achieve the synthesis of religion, science, philosophy and psychology. As Blavatsky said: "Our most important goal is to revive the work of Ammonius Saccas" since his school work was the to "reconcile all religions, sects and nations under a common system of ethics, based on eternal truths." The purpose of Saccas was' persuade Gentiles and Christians, Jews and idolaters, they left their disputes and struggles, considering that all had the same truth under various forms " Theosophical School and his idea of relativism of truth , learned with great force into the twentieth century and gave birth to a new school of thought, whose pregnancy was in the mind of an American poet named Marilyn Ferguson, who in 1980 published his book "The Aquarian Conspiracy" that came to be a real manual concept called "The New Era". The new era is nothing new. Is the resurgence of ideas and trends settled for thousands of years in the Hindu culture budita. Concepts such as karma, reincarnation, yoga and obviously the school of truth in a relative sense, is part of this diabolical philosophy has now conquered the Western world. The new era has penetrated all the powers and most unlikely , has entered the church. Countless men allegedly "servants of God" such as David Yonggi Cho, Kenneth Coppeland, Hagin, Benny Hinn, among others, have taught new techniques in his speeches was full of relativism. We talk about visualization, activation of the power of positive confession word or hatching and desires, etc., etc. And as is the trend of apostasy, there is a crowd that follows them. "The time will come when they will not endure sound teaching, but having itching ears they will accumulate for themselves teachers to suit their own desires, and will turn away from listening to the truth and turn aside to myths." 2 Timothy 4:3-4 Relativism and the idea of eliminating all, has given rise to the famous ecumenical movement of which we have spoken so much and for many it is almost a speech pestle and stale. However, the issue becomes much force, it is necessary to review it. Throughout the Bible, we see quite precisely the continuing trend towards unification of man. For example the episode of the Tower of Babel or years later we find the people of Israel in mixtures with paganism constants of those people who encircled. "They feared the Lord, and served their own gods, after the manner of the nations from which they had been transferred" 2 Kings 17:33 This constant religious relativism is what eventually brings to life the religious unification. Today is known as ecumenism and Christian pseudo presumption of trying to unite all faiths under the protection of a universal religion. ecumenical movement as a strategy of unification began in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. Already in 1948, after World War II, leaders of various churches meet in Amsterdam (Netherlands) and form the World Council of Churches (WCC). At that time representatives of 147 churches worldwide. As we see, the idea of unification and to break down barriers that divide churches, is the relentless pursuit that this organization is promoting the concepts of relativism and ecumenism, disrupting biblical gospel and sound doctrine bequeathed by our Lord Jesus Christ. Certainly, that once the Second Vatican Council, initiated by Pope John XXIII and completed by Pope Paul VI, the ecumenical movement took much more force, which emerged evangelical men look has captivated crowds began to drag this move of the spirit of anti Christ called ecumenism. There we have named characters such as Billy Graham, Rex Humbard, Paul Crouch, among others, who have been advocates of unification and religious prophets. All have strengthened his hand with the Pope of Rome. Later became popular the saying "all roads lead to Rome", which later appeared in another version: "All roads lead to God." relativistic idea of truth , have led to the suggestion that all religions teach the same God and that there is no absolute concept of truth. The Lord Jesus Christ never left his teaching in a sea of uncertainties, ambiguities or between relativistic concepts. His speech, far from any diplomacy, and the seal of absolute truth, it was very appreciated by the crowd. Nobody likes to be told NO or YES absolutely, is more friendly talk "maybe", "more or less", etc.. Christ never spoke halftone dark or light. Never hinted relativistic teaching, however, the passage leaves us extremely absolutist: "I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man comes to the Father except through me" John 14:6 Our beloved Lord and Savior Jesus Christ did not use the indefinite article "A or A" as to leave room for varis paths may exist or several truths. The truth is only one in an absolute sense. No other truth, and if so, one of the two would be a lie. There can not be two truths, just as there are several ways to obtain salvation. Christ said ".. I am the way", the only way to reach God. Here, there is no place for religious relativism. The world has a wide range of religions and each claims to have the truth. Joseph Smith, Charles T. Russell, Helena G. White, among others, claimed to be possessors of truth. In light of relativism, perhaps these three characters can carry "their truth", but in light of the Bible, are liars, because their teachings are not those of Christ. So to be our categorical analysis. Briefly, relativism is another strategy of Satan to confuse. Pretending to remove the absolute value of truth, is the same as denying Christ, because He is the truth. The pseudo REVIVAL "And all the prophets prophesied so, saying, Go up to Ramoth Gilead, and prosper: for the LORD shall deliver it into the hand of the king" 1 Kings 22:12 Every time I read this passage, the more I believe that the voice of the majority is not necessarily the truth or the channel through which God manifests his will. These were four hundred prophets in unison supported the desires of conquest of King Ahab. However, the perfect will of God was to be expressed by a prophet named Micaiah outcast whom Ahab hated because he always had words of judgment rather than revival. The King expressed it: "There is still one man by whom we may inquire of the LORD, Micaiah the son of Imlah, but I hate him, because he never prophesies good" (1 Kgs. 22: 8) And as was the tone and the classic phrase of the true prophets of God, saying "Lord liveth, what the LORD speaketh, that will I speak," Micaiah in full subordination to the Word of God warns King Ahab and the majority, who the desires of conquest would not be prosperous and that defeat was inevitable. As expected, the arrogance of the clergy and the most unbridled, clearly personified appears on the lips of a despot who beats Zedekiah the prophet Micaiah saying a phrase as valid today: "Where I went the Spirit of the Lord to speak to you?" (1 Kgs. 22:24) Finally, and in summary, Ahab did not heed what God's Word said through his servant Micah, consequently, the exploration and conquest of the aspirations of the region of Syria, Ramoth Gilead, was a flop in the middle death and blood. Brethren beloved, it seems that this experience Israel lived many centuries ago, today takes such force that surprises the accuracy of the events and of course, its outcome. Today there is a vast majority that speaks of conquest, of revival and it is said that God is shaking the country, making thousands of people. There is talk of "Chile for Christ" of "harvest time" "Time of conquest", etc.. etc. slogan and that remains a crowd behind the goal. There are pastors and leaders who have a stake in this world, longing influences foray into political office and close involvement with the "stop". It's like they have forgotten words as precise as "our citizenship is in heaven" (Philippians 3:20) or is that cut and maimed have the Word of God with those scissors magic and carnal to forget the warnings of judgment God. they are "the majority", "group of the four hundred prophets", "clergy", "pastoral breakfast", which are installed on a throne of royalty and have assumed to be the voice of God without even consulting him, and worse, they are unwilling to change their minds. Their desire for conquest and domination have dominated and filled their hearts, and they have forgotten the celestial abodes definitely love and Christ's coming. activity of this arrogant ruling Christendom today, is so like that of Laodicea, that church in Asia Minor, cone Revelation describes a self sufficient community, economically prosperous and had need of nothing, but the Lord warns and discovers a body miserable, poor, wretched, blind and naked. That solemn diagnosis. Moreover, there is a minority that preaches the exact opposite. While "many" is captivated by the idea of revival, "the few" are announcing a time of apostasy, of gloom and deceit. Certainly the minority, does not have much value for the clergy. The expression is as same as the old Zedekiah, saying: "Who are these? Three or four "peels cats" who have nothing, not even a membership plentiful .... " The experience of the remnants faithful (by the grace of God), was always the same. Our Lord Jesus Christ said something very specific: "Woe to you when all men speak well of you! for so did their fathers to the false prophets "(Luke 6:26) We are crossing a sea of confusion and deception. What appears to be the truth, we discover that it is not, and vice versa, which seems incredible, that's the truth. Behold, when we realize that we need to be in the secret of God away from universalist ideas and modernist seeking to change the course of the prophecy. 's like a crazy horse and unrestrained, that goes straight to the precipice, though with great faith, but sterile, thinking to get to the cliff, wings that will allow you to move to another side. That is a fallacy, a fallacy and a clear disregard to accept what God's Word says. God has never predicted a revival for the last time, however, Jesus said: But when the Son of Man comes, will he find faith on the earth? (Luke 18:8) Recall now the final part of the prophecy of Micah, when it is revealed that a spirit of deception is that captivates crowds and drives them to do what they should not: "He said, I will go out and be a lying spirit in the mouth of all his prophets. And he said: You shall persuade him, and still get, go forth, and do so. And now, behold, the LORD hath put a lying spirit in the mouth of all thy prophets, and the Lord hath spoken evil concerning thee. "(1 Kgs. 22:22-23) Maybe someone will say how come God allows that? The answer is categorical, God does what he wants because he is sovereign. Nobody, no man can change the course of the prophecy. This experience is the same as the Holy Spirit reveals to the apostle Paul when he says: "For this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie, so that all may be condemned who did not believe the truth but had pleasure in unrighteousness." (2 Thessalonians 2: 11-12) At present there is a spirit of error that is moving in the middle of the church, and that God has sovereignly allowed to manifest who are the real and who is not. David Wilkerson summarized them very clearly: ".. . no evil wind blowing in the house of God ... " The apostle John says: "They are the world: therefore speak they of the world, and the world listens. We are of God: he that knoweth God heareth us: he that is not of God heareth not us. Hereby know we the spirit of truth and the spirit of error. "(1 John 4:5-6) What a great recipe God through the Apostle John teaches us to discern and differentiate as spirits. The distinctive separation from the world, unlike the world and indifference by the world. Undoubtedly, the majority who preach revival, conquest or mowing time, are very desired by the world. His daring shows, their captivating and flamboyant events are a real red carpet glamor of pleasure and very own world. It is for this reason that the world hears these crowds and come to them. Seeing talented emerging "showman" as Dante Gebel or famed Marcos Witt, who possess that classic artistic spark and charisma to keep entertained hundreds of thousands of people enthralled and enjoying it histrionic ability that these gentlemen have. At the end of the show, a small portion of the Bible as an excuse and evangelical bitumen. insult That the Lord! Christ is not a clown who want to entertain, dancing around the world drunk or beg anyone. He is the King Sovereign who does what you want and we little people that we serve. But what God's Word says about this? Someone said there, that over 50% of writing is apologetic, ie defense faith. In writing found abundant passages that reveal the activity of watchmen and prophets who insisted warn of the dangers that lurked the people. Obviously, these men were not very popular or desired by the people, because the light has never been well received in the darkness. Today is no exception. The protagonist of this short study is an unknown and unpopular prophet Micaiah. An ordinary man, with strengths and weaknesses, with successes and failures, but with a distinct divine and a credential authorizing him to speak the voice of heaven, and all by the grace of God. This is the paradigm that represents the remnants that are currently swimming upstream. Those "salmon" spiritual faced a storm all contrary to that question, and disqualifies. Are those "stubborn monkeys" who are beaten and trampled, but which stubbornly stand again when Paul was stoned in Lystra. God warns us abundantly and with extraordinary clarity, that the characteristic of the last days, before the coming of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ is deception and apostasy. Moreover, there is no record in Scripture that we announce revival for these times. Sensualism IN THE CHURCH "... In the last time there ... sensual, having not the Spirit "Jude 18-19 The Epistle of Jude is eminently apologetics. Certainly a term that many do not like because of the price to be paid. However, the reliability and validity of the infallible Word of God is truly amazing. The last time montoneras be characterized by sensuality and the text indicates that those sensual, having not the Spirit, which leads us to conclude that Christianity today is composed of a crowd that is not born again, but he sympathizes with this scheme and mold according to the parameters of the world and not according to the Bible. SENSUAL The word derives from the Greek word "psikikoi" which is translated, "carried by the natural mind." All humans have one side of sensationalism, however this area has to be subordinated to the spirit. This is precisely what is not happening among the people of God. Phrases such as "I think, I feel and I think" and concepts such as pragmatism, subjectivism and religious syncretism, have replaced the categorical statements of God in his Word. Causes: The brutal onslaught of secularism and sensuality within churches. Sensuality in the world This is another feature that stands out in recent times, the cult of physical and enjoyment. We are in a society of enjoyers and connoisseurs who do not spare anything to look better and "enjoy" life at any cost. Appear bulk deals in hotels, casinos, resorts and luxury cruises, where people come amid a frenzy of sensuality and hubbub. Today business is very good appearance. People worry to change his face and to cultivate their physical fitness and aesthetic centers. Men are concerned about increasing their muscles and projecting the classic sex symbol image, while women break his hand trying to target your wrinkles stretching and increasing the size of their breasts, buttocks and all that needed to resemble figures stereotypical cinema and celebrities. Sensuality in the Church This sea of hedonism and sensuality is also one of the evils that are invading the people of God. There are many that instead of cultivating their spirit, are worried go to the gym instead of congregating. meetings Christendom today have become true spectacles. The captivating and flamboyant events are a real red carpet glamor of pleasure and very own world. It is for this reason that the world hears these crowds and come to them. Hence, leaders, dam of pragmatism, shout that strategies are working, what matters are not the methods, but the gospel message. Some argue that just as Paul was a Jew as a Jew to win Jews ( 1 Corinthians 9:20), so we should apply different methods and we can get hip-hoppers, rappers, rockers, goths, etc., to reach them all. those who pose this premise, simple and unfortunately are giving vent to his own sensuality. Paul's example is no argument for this; Being Jewish has never been a fad, nor a secular style, and what the apostle teaches in this passage is far from what today raises religious liberalism. What will make the sinner is only the Word of God. The power is in the one who sows, but in the seed. "The letter kills, new wine and latter rain" These three statements in the Scriptures, are being used by some "theologians" modernists and liberals who pretend to affirm that God is acting differently in recent times, and that evangelicals of today we must open our minds and traditions and concepts "legalistic". Obviously the sensual, argue its position in the Scriptures and to believe that all his teachings vanguard have biblical support. Mr. Marcos Witt, one of the great exponents of this premise, has openly declared that all they did honor their parents, grandparents, and all that God has done through them, but insists that what is happening today, it is a "new way and a new day" This reminds me of the proposal of the New Age. 1. First let's look at the pseudo-argument letter kills. The Liberals say the evangelical teaching of the Apostle Paul refers to the comprehensive study, systematic and persevering Scripture, kill the spirit and creates dead churches. Text set this in 2 Corinthians 3:6 and never teaches what some liberals defend. What the apostle Paul presented there is a comparison between the old covenant of law (the letter) and the new covenant of grace (the spirit), and as we know, the law condemns, more the grace of Christ is the saves. In no way anti-Christian stance teaches that Scripture study hard can kill us, indeed, it is an insult to God and His Word. 2. Secondly we see the new wine pseudo argument. The sexy stance that raise the alleged revival and the new era of Christianity, say the new wine is what God is doing at present and can not be placed among evangelical traditions and antiques (skins). Thus have deliberately rendered obsolete the traditional hymns and conservative form of assembly and worship, to replace this "new wine" which, according to them, is pouring over the people of God. Yet the Bible in Matthew 9 : 17 not teach that. The Lord Jesus in response to the issues raised by the disciples of John, presents a remarkable comparison between the old and new testament and the incompatibility between the two. In other words, teaching suggests that something old (old wineskins = law) can not be the recipient of the new dispensation of God to man (new wine), so you need a new and efficient (wineskins = The Grace) As we see, once again seeks the biblical twist to fit a false teaching and sensual. 3. Thirdly see the pseudo argument of the latter rain. This teaching that dates from the beginning of the Pentecostal movement in the United States, is being re-used by much of Christendom today that says we're getting the "latter rain" prophesied by the Bible, therefore must be updated and apply this spray innovative liturgies away from traditionalism and dead. Thus, say the churches are not molded to these new proposals, has fallen behind and have dried up due to not being refreshed by this extraordinary rain. A scripture where it mentions the " Latter Rain "is located in Joel 2:23 and is one of the favorites for the neo - Pentecostalism. The thing is, that both the early and late rain, nothing has to do with a new outpouring of the Holy Spirit upon the church of Christ, unless alegoricemos passage and give you a subjective interpretation. Firstly we must understand that in the land of Israel, the concept of early and latter rain, is a natural and must be understood in their literal description of the story. The rains were demonstrating with high accuracy, a period between March-April and the other in October-November. God demonstrates His infinite goodness and mercy to his people, giving this blessed dew time to bathe as arid lands. Secondly, we must emphasize that the promise is given exclusively to Israel. The church is not Israel but many seek to claim that is "spiritual Israel" and the old town and failed, has been rejected by God. This is twisting Scripture and ignore all revelation, forgetting the differences between dispensations, due to poor biblical interpretation. This "new wave" of sensuality within the people of God is a sign of the end times and the imminent return of our beloved Lord Jesus Christ. Though all this move intends to stop by pure gospel, using costumes, masks and makeup scriptural, the eternal Word of God is responsible for unmasking. Such a counterfeit which at first glance is very similar to the real, sooner or later, it is discovered to be false. Likewise, the sensual mutilate the body, which cause divisions and only seek to satisfy their senses sooner or later show their true identity, making sure not born again because they have the Spirit. Unfortunately there are many brothers who sincerely wrong, leaders are following prey to sensuality. It's amazing that this happens more so when the infallible Word of God is insistent on this point and so clearly otherwise: "The time will come when they will not endure sound teaching, but having itching ears they will accumulate for themselves teachers to suit their own desires, and will turn away from listening to the truth and shall be turned unto fables" 2 Timothy 4: 3-4 This time resembles the king who witnessed the fall of a great empire as was Babylon. "Belshazzar the king made a great feast for a thousand of his lords, and drank before the thousand wine" Daniel 5:1 All glory and power, was coming to an end. holy finger of God announced the coming of judgment the inevitable and imminent onslaught of the Medes, who would end a paradigm of power, prosperity and secularism. This experience told in the book of Daniel, we can illustrate the times in which we live. There is a wave of secularism accompanied search of prosperity and aspirations of conquest amazing, and I mean not only the world, but this feeling entrenched within the church. crowd this is a banquet and amid extraordinary drunkenness. Nobody is determined to stop and meditate alone for a moment about the "finger of God" writing on the wall and reveals that we have been weighed in the balances and have been pulled lacking. Currently, there are strong sounds of celebration, din and entertainment, such as the feast which Belshazzar and his men, and all, prior to God's judgment. So, everything fits to fulfill the scripture when it says: "When they shall say, Peace and safety, then sudden destruction cometh upon them, as travail upon a woman with child, and shall not escape" 1 Thessalonians 5:3 It would be foolish not to recognize that now touts a "shower of blessings" of revival and celebration of conquest. Out there, and became popular the "cheer", which translates into a strong "UUUUU" by the drunken crowd at this event, the music volume, prevents the voice of the Savior who is outside in the door, calling his people out of this feast. Dear brothers, we are not banquet or party. Make no mistake, the crowds and the long lines of members of Christianity these days, is not synonymous with blessing, conquest or revival. On the contrary, it is the clear indication of a brutal wave of secularism within the church. It is for this reason that the world comes with much pleasure to the temples, because there is no difference, the feasting and drunkenness is the same with different names. May God help us to follow firmly and consistently proclaiming the glorious truth of his Word. FILM AND THEIR ATTACKS the biblical The problem of misinterpretation of the scriptures, has led to excesses and false teachings. The mixture irresponsible among God's dealings with His earthly people Israel and his heavenly people, the church has allowed the circulation of erroneous doctrines and twisted by men unlearned and unstable, and unfortunately made ​​a huge "Trojan horse" that subtly penetrated among the people of God, and sometimes sincere Christians have not even noticed. As an example we quote only for the film "The Passion" by Mel Gibson, "The Lost Tomb" by James Cameron, statements regarding the National Geographic one "Gospel of Judas", several years ago JJ Benitez with his "Trojan Horse" and later Dan Brown with his "Da Vinci Code". All productions totally unbiblical, however, very well received by the majority of believers, without recognizing the error. THE PASSION OF THE CHRIST Remember the great impact that produced this film among the people of God. Brothers sincere filmmaking recommended this as a great tool for evangelism. There was talk of people leaving rueful heart from the living room to see the moving scenes, creating great excitement against this film. Actually, that is not needed to see more than five minutes this film, to find a clear deviation biblical fidelity and attachment to a deliberate civil Mariolatry. This allows us to raise great concern about what is happening among the people of God. For them to oppose the apologetic voice and watchtower, are those who fail to discern between truth and error. They are the same who failed to realize this satanic load production is not at all attached to the four Gospels as Mel Gibson claims. In an interview, Gibson admitted that his screenplay is based on the writings of a mystic nun called Santa Ann Emmerich, who in his stories that border on the occult, mystical reveal their experience with an alleged apparitions of "Christ." When we look at this work, we discovered the classic Jesuit theology Alfonso Maria de liborio with their "Glories of Mary". The script takes care to emphasize the fundamental participation would have had Mary in the work of redemption. The sample of the cross with Christ and fall seasons, plus the Roman Catholic term "Calvary" is the tone of this film is nothing evangelical. To mention science fiction or alleged submission of the Apostle Peter when he calls Mary "mother." Christ never called mother Mary as Gibson claims. Mary was not the mother of God as Rome claims. She was the mother of Jesus, of the human nature of our Savior. Mary is our co-redeemer, co-savior or co-intercessor, the one and only Savior and Lord Jesus Christ. "For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus" 1 Timothy 2:5 The Lost Tomb of Jesus The past year, jumped to table the issue regarding the person of Jesus. On that occasion, was reopened a book full of speculation and mysterious intentions, to pretend to deny the extraordinary fact of the resurrection of Jesus Christ. 's character shift was Canadian filmmaker James Cameron, who presented a documentary on "The Lost Tomb of Jesus" (The lost tomb of Jesus), and sought to show that Christ did not rise and that according to research, they would have found a tomb in 1980 in Jerusalem and, according to the authors of the film, containing the remains of Mary, Jesus, Maria Magdalena and Judas the son. Denying the resurrection of Jesus Christ and to lower him to the purely human level, is not new. This diabolical inspiration comes from the time of Christ himself. The monks of the time denied his divinity and looked stoned when he equaled his Father. Similarly, denied his resurrection, attributing the incident to a mere sequestration lifeless body of Messiah. Moreover, Freemasonry has always denied the extraordinary event of the resurrection. This diabolical lodge, full of symbolism and mystery Babylonian constantly officially declared that Jesus did not die on the cross and that there is no resurrection; well relate to the disciples with the Essenes and how many lies have come up. I do not think it odd that Mr Cameron is Mason. lies Another debated for centuries, is the Divinity of Christ. As God exalted him, the devil wanted to reduce to the utmost, using history through fraudulent ministers and instruments of darkness, who focus their energies and studies to say that Jesus was just a man, who had married life and more, have dared to say he got off the cross and continued his married life with Mary Magdalene. The devil is the father of lies and as such its seed has that label. Men love darkness rather than the Light, and that is why we love a lie but the truth (John 3: 16-21), that's why these merchants appear cyclically using the Bible to write books and screenplays, and to engage those seeking knowledge and mysteries. What does the Bible say Jesus' resurrection? Jesus being alive and announced that he would die on the third day rise again. (Matthew 16:21, Matthew 17:23, Matthew 20:19, Mark 8:31, Mark 9:31, Mark 10:33-34, Luke 9:22, Luke 18:31-33) John writes of follows: "Jesus answered and said unto them, Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up. Then said the Jews, Forty and six years was this temple in building, and wilt thou rear it up in three days? But he spake of the temple of his body. Therefore, when he rose from the dead, his disciples remembered that he had said this, and they believed the Scripture and the word which Jesus had said "John 2:19-22 As we see, Jesus' statement and clarification of the written by John is categorical. Jesus would die and the third day he would rise. Certainly, rational religious and do not believe or want to believe they could. It's exactly the same thing is happening now with this wave of religious rationalism. An interesting point related to the above passage is that the religious never forgot teaching announcing the death and resurrection of Jesus, because once consummated crucifixion and burial, we see the same people begging to Pilate, and asked a guard at the tomb: "The next day, that is after the preparation, the chief priests and the Pharisees gathered before Pilate, saying, Sir, we remember that that deceiver said, yet alive, After three days I will rise. Command therefore that the sepulcher be secure until the third day, lest his disciples come by night and steal Him away, and say unto the people, He is risen from the dead. And so the last error shall be worse than the first. And Pilate said to them, You have a guard: go, aseguradlo as you know. So they went and made ​​the sepulcher sure, sealing the stone and setting the guard "Matthew 27:62-69 The Pharisees and the chief priests were able to possess an Pilate of soldiers stationed at the tomb of Jesus. Their disbelief and suspicion, they seemed to suggest that the disciples would steal the body to tell the people that Jesus had risen. Nevertheless, this fact conceived in the wicked man's heart, it was God who allowed it, and has become, along with testimony of the soldier who transfer a spear in the side of the Lord, a true death certificate and burial of Christ. Jesus died, was buried and rose again the third day according to the Scriptures (1 Corinthians 15:1-4) However, men do not believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of the living God, and continues to be for them, only a character enveloped in mysticism, mystery and speculation. On the third day he rose from the dead As is advertised scripture, Jesus was resurrected and women were the first to know. They went to anoint Jesus' body with spices and flavors, but took the surprise that their Lord was. Perhaps they too had forgotten that Christ had said that the third day would emerge victorious from the grave. "After the Sabbath, at dawn on the first day of the week, came Mary Magdalene and the other Mary to see the sepulcher ... And the angel answered and said unto the women, Fear not ye: for I know that ye seek Jesus, which was crucified. He is not here, he is risen, as he said. Come, see the place where the Lord lay "Matthew 28:1-6 After a major earthquake, the tombstone was removed by an angel of the Lord, have revealed the most glorious scenes, the Lord Jesus had risen . The tomb was empty, women soldiers were stunned and trembling. The other version Despite the glorious scene of religious unbelief not allowed to stand. Upon receiving the report of the guards, the chief priests and elders gave large money unto the soldiers to buy their lips to release "another version" of what happened in the tomb that morning. "while they were going, behold, some of the watch came into the city, and shewed unto the chief priests all the things that had happened. They had assembled with the elders and taken counsel, they gave large money unto the soldiers, saying, Say ye, His disciples came by night and stole him away while we slept. And if this is the governor's ears, we will satisfy him and keep you out. So they took the money and did as they were instructed. This saying is commonly reported among the Jews until this day "Matthew 28:11-15 The version bought by the religious, it is held by many of the Gnostics and modernist theologians. It is so important that this fact has been recorded in the scriptures, because we can now see that what was said by Mr. Cameron, is nothing new and its origin comes from the darkness. Infallible proofs For believers, the only witness of the Holy Bible is sufficient to support and increase our faith in the Lord Jesus Christ. We do not need science background contribution we strengthen our convictions, and also any new finding or another version that may appear on this or that biblical event and pointing crumble our beliefs, never put in check that fortress and immutable rock which Jesus Christ has placed us. Handwriting is abundant in clarifying the issue of the resurrection of our Lord Jesus Christ, because after this great event, Christ appeared to his disciples for forty days infallible proofs testifying to his victory over death. "But Thomas ... said unto them, Except I shall see in his hands the print of the nails, and put my finger into the print of the nails, and thrust my hand into his side, I will not believe. And after eight days again his disciples were within, and Thomas with them. Jesus came, the doors being shut, and stood among them and said: Peace be with you. Then he said to Thomas, Reach hither thy finger, and behold my hands, and reach your hand here, and put it into my side: and be not faithless, but believing. And Thomas answered and said to him! 'My Lord and my God! Jesus said: Because thou hast seen me, thou hast believed: blessed are they that have not seen and have believed "John 20:24-29) It was necessary that existed among the disciples Tomas. The individual classic rationalist and you need to see to believe. Thomas was aware that Jesus had died, but could not accept or believe that he had risen. The resurrection was impossible. Yet Jesus appears in the middle, and Thomas being reveals the cross marks, certifying him that he had risen tangibly. With that scene, Thomas surrendered and acknowledged the Lordship of Jesus and worshiped him. Tests were many. Even John says that they were not written in the book, but the goal was one and only one: "But these are written that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that believing you may have life in his name "John 20:31 And Luke adds: (Jesus) ... "After his suffering, he showed himself alive with many convincing proofs, appearing to them during forty days and speaking about the kingdom of God" Acts 1:3 As we have seen, the resurrection of Christ was a glorious event and you have enough and abundant argument the Bible. Not for nothing is one of the pillars of our faith. Paul told the Corinthians that if there is no resurrection, our faith is vain and our preaching (1 Corinthians 15:14) The Gospel of Judas "Jesus answered them, Have not I chosen you twelve, and one of you is a devil? He spoke of Judas Iscariot, Simon's son, because he was the one who would betray him, and was one of the twelve " John 6:70-71 Maybe you already know all the news that swept the world. National Geographic The organization published a translation of the papyrus found in the seventies and payable on the Gospel of Judas Iscariot. revealed in these writings an alleged conversation between Jesus and Judas, explaining that the latter did not commit treason, but his act is due to an express request that Jesus would have given. This news should not surprise us, because attempts to vindicate Judas by Satan, have been relentless. all remember the famous Franco Zeffirelli production of "Jesus of Nazareth", where among so many mistakes to biblical accounts Judas appears as victim and victimizer not. But what does the Bible say about Judas? The text which heads this comment reveals clearly and precisely who was Judas Iscariot. Jesus knew that Judas would betray him and he described it as hell. Elsewhere (John 12: 6) John's Gospel makes clear that Judas was a thief because the bag and bare disciples. But aside from all studies and evil desires of the "prestigious" National Geographic, ponder this: Judas was an instrument used by God to fulfill a startling fact: The death of our Lord Jesus Christ, without which none of us would enjoy eternal salvation. Just the way that God whom Pharaoh hardened his heart and thus show his glory and power in the process of liberation of the people of Israel. Right. God is sovereign to use vessels of honor or dishonor according to his purpose (Romans 9:17-21). And so was the case with this Judas afore prepared that we all know that betrayal. THE NEED apologetics If you look in the dictionary, surely find something like this definition: APOLOGY (from Lat. apology, and this of gr. apology) speech or written word in defense or praise of people or things. Deriving from that word, apologetics (from Lat. Apologeticus, and this of gr. Apologetikos) is the science that is responsible for developing, defend or explain the foundations of the Christian faith. How necessary is the apologetic voice within the church times both attacks on the biblical foundations. What we have observed, we can persuade us that the lack of watchtowers defenders and propagators of the whole counsel of God, the "Trojan Horse" whose rider is Satan himself, shamelessly has penetrated into the people of God, who among the entertainment, spiritual numbness, yet, the excitement and the carnal frenzy, has not even noticed. The Bible is almost hundred percent apologetic and work of the church leaders, is to learn what going in and out of the church for the purpose of preventing, alerting and protecting the flock of influences, trends and doctrines totally wrong. The apostolic call is as follows: "I charge thee before God and the Lord Jesus Christ, who shall judge the quick and the dead at his appearing and his kingdom: Preach the word, be urgent in season and out of season, reprove, rebuke, exhort with all longsuffering and doctrine. time will come when they will not endure sound teaching, but having itching ears they will accumulate for themselves teachers to suit their own desires, and will turn away from listening to the truth and turn aside to myths. But watch thou in all things, endure afflictions, do the work of an evangelist, fulfill your ministry. " (2 Timothy 4:1-5) The New Testament presents sufficient argument to support the position that the last time would be marked by a sharp falling away, by deceiving spirits and doctrines of demons. Here are some of the verses selected: "Enter by the narrow gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the road that leads to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat: Because strait is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life, and few are those who find it. Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly are ravenous wolves. "" Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name, and in Your name cast out demons, and in thy name done many wonderful works? And then I will declare I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity "Matthew 7: 13-23 "And as he sat upon the mount of Olives, the disciples came unto him privately, saying, Tell us, when shall these things, and what shall be the sign of your coming and of the end of the world? Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that no man deceive you. For many will come in my name, saying, I am the Christ, 'and will deceive many. "Matthew 24: 3-5 "... you not be quickly shaken from your composure or be disturbed either by spirit or by word, nor by letter as from us, to the effect that the day of Christ is at hand. No one deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and they show the man of sin, the son of perdition ... "2 Thessalonians 2:2-3 "Now the Spirit expressly says that in latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits and doctrines of demons "1 Timothy 4:1 "This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come." 2 Timothy 3:1 "For the time will come when they will not endure sound teaching, but having itching ears they will accumulate for themselves teachers to suit their own desires, and will turn away from listening to the truth and shall be turned unto fables "2 Timothy 4: 3-4 "But you, beloved, remember ye the words which were spoken before by the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ that they told you in the last time there will be scoffers who will follow their own ungodly desires "Jude 17-18 As noted, the texts are quite clear and precise. Holding this as in developing online sermons, not become "prophets of gloom" as some people have described derogatorily, but simply declare the whole counsel of God without accommodating, or honey, or yeast. Someone said once: "A pessimist is an optimist, but knowledgeable ..." Right. The man faithful to the Word of God can not twist the scriptures or advertise sophistry or false hopes, however, it must be accurate in delivering the voice of God as he reveals his Holy Book. deceptions times in which we live, we must meditate on the return of our beloved Lord and Savior Jesus Christ is at the door, at which we as beloved children of God, we cry out with a loud voice: "Amen, Even so, come Lord Jesus!" That well be. Maranatha.
