This Is Very Important To God's People!
"Who Did Jesus Called These Things?"
[Meet The False And Fake Preachers Many Seem To Love]
.
Who Were The Foxes And The wolves In Christ's Day?
The purpose of this paper is not to defend my style of writing, (God only knows that I do not profess to be a scholar, nor a polished orator, nor a man of eloquent words), but to rather see how Jesus really taught in public, to the masses, and particularly to the lying, hypocritical Scribes and Pharisees. We will examine whether Jesus Christ Himself did indeed use sarcasm, exaggeration, caricature, satire, irony, and anger to get across His Gospel Message.
And yet countlessBelievers, Christians, Saints write and tell us that Jesus never spoke like this or ever said a cruel or angry word in His life. Therefore when I sometimes write with an edge on my voice I am accused of not following the example of Jesus. Oh but Jesus surely did speak harshly, demeaningly, and with great anger in His voice to the Scribes and Pharisees—the religious Leaders of Gods Church. Jesus was not mild and soft-spoken when it came to the sins and hypocrisy of these church leaders. Too many Christians have read the teachings of Jesus with rose-colored glasses covering both their eyes and their minds.
WOW! Every one of these comments from Matt. 23 were spoken directly to the "Religious Scholars and Theologians" in the Church of God centered at the Temple in Jerusalem. Would Jesus speak in the same manner to the Religious Scholars and Theologians in Gods Church today? Does Jesus "change"? NO. Has the Church changed in the past 2000 years? yes, It has gotten WORSE.
Now we assure you that we have personally referred to the religious hypocrites of our day with all the descriptive words that Jesus used. Yet we "cursed" and "condemned to hell" for merely exposing the heresy of religious leaders and teachers of our day. Positively no one in Ministry would ever sanction such a manner of speech from a minister in their denomination. There isn't a denomination even in all Faiths that would hire Jesus as their Leader or Pastor if He were to return today. Why they would throw Him out the door on His ear before He got ten minutes into His first sermon. Christians are offended that I would even point out these historical facts of Scripture. They really don’t want to believe Jesus spoke as He did, even though its all right there in their Bibles. Most of the followers of the Scribes and Pharisees thought them to be virtually perfect, just as the modern Church scholars, teachers, and preachers are thought by their followers to be perfect.
LOOK AT An ANGRY CHRIST IN A DEN OF THIEVES DO YOU SEE YOUR PREACHER OR PASTOR HERE?
Did JESUS ever get angry over crime and corruption within the church?
Now then, were any of these activities being performed in the Temple ILLEGAL? No, they were not. The officers of the Temple allowed it according to their laws, and the Roman Government allowed it according to their laws. So these merchants in the Temple were not criminals. Or were they?
Jesus said they were CRIMINALS! But woe unto me if I should suggest that this same buying and selling in the Churches today is criminal! It IS criminal, I assure you, it is CRIMINAL. And they do FAR WORSE in today's churches! They not only sell trinkets and religious junk in the Church, they MAKE MERCHANDISE OF THE VERY WORD OF GOD ITSELF. THEY SELL THE WORD OF GOD FOR PROFITS! Here is what Christ said concerning their activities of buying and selling in the Temple:
"The House Christ Jesus is talking about is His people all Believers, Christians, Saints...And He taught, saying unto them, Is it not written, My house shall be called of all nations the House of Prayer? But you have made it a DEN OF THIEVES" (Mark 11:17!)
Does anyone believe that Jesus was SMILING while He turned over their tables and accused them of making His House a "DEN OF THIEVES?"
Sarcasm? Maybe. But SHEER GENIUS! Yet millions and millions of Christians read these verses in Scripture and they don’t get it. They don’t see any sarcasm whatsoever. Well, its there, and its everywhere in Christ's ministry.HEAVY LOADS AND BURDENS
"For they [Scribes and Pharisees] bind Heavy burdens and grievous to be born, and lay them on men's shoulders…"
Have all such "grievous burdens" been abolished in the Church of Jesus Christ today? We speak as a fool. And do your Religious Leaders lend a hand and carry equally "grievous burdens off of God's beloved children, all Believers, Christians, Saints? Again, We speak as a fool. Here is Jesus’ sarcastic answer to this question:
"…but they themselves will not move them with ONE OF THEIR FINGERS" (Matt. 23:4).
Yes, Preachers will CRUSH THE BACKS of their followers, but they wont even lift a LITTLE FINGER to help God's people. Unbelievable is it bet we loving it every step of the way because we hate Christ truth and love their lies. WHITED SEPULCHRES
"Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you are like unto whited sepulchers, which indeed appear beautiful outward, but are within FULL OF DEAD MEN'S BONES, AND OF ALL UNCLEANNESS, even so you also outwardly appear RIGHTEOUS unto men, but within you are FULL OF HYPOCRISY AND INIQUITY" (Matt. 23:27-28).
The "CONSUMING SPIRIT OF GOD" Will just as surely burn up and burn out every element of sin and carnality in us, as a literal furnace of fire burns up and burns out the dross contained in impure silver. This must take place in the life of every person who has ever lived.
The result of the judgment on every mans work in fire (both for the believer in this life now, and the nonbeliever in the second resurrection to judgment later) is the same Gospel—good news:
"EVERY man's work shall be made manifest [Either in the Fiery Judgment upon the House of God NOW, or upon the nonbelievers in the Great White Throne/Lake of Fire Judgment LATER]: for the day shall declare it, because it shall be revealed BY FIRE, and the fire shall try every man's work of what sort it is. If any man's work abide which he has built thereupon, he shall receive a reward. If any man's work shall be burned [the carnal WORKS of men are burned up, not the carnal men], he shall suffer loss: but HE HIMSELF SHALL BE SAVED" (I Cor. 3:13-15).
So Called Ministry Of That Day And In Ours Today:
"…compassing sea and land to make proselytes, and when they have made them, they make them twofold more the children of hell than themselves, who do you think Jesus is talking about here?
