Introduction
Today, people do all kinds of things as gthey like, forgetting the serious warnings given by Jesus:
21 I "Not everyone who says to Me ,'Lord , Lord ,' shall enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father in heaven. 22 Many will say to Me in that day, 'Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in Your name, cast out demons in Your name, and done many wonders in Your name?' 23 And then I will declare to them, 'I never knew you; depart from Me, you who practice lawlessness!'
Matthew 7:21-23(Luke 6:46; 13:26,27)
Beware of the following sins, errors and mistakes being made by people everyday. Do your best to avoid them, for they lead to hell fire:
- Playing the Chinese dragon and dancing with it.
- “If you can’t beat them join them”. - If you get to Rome, do like the Romans.
- For the day of worship, count any 6 days, and rest on the 7th.
- Very bad and negative attitudes of people towards God:
- Shying away from the Truth.
- Having the Bible and not reading it.
- Reading some portions and leaving others unread.
- Craze for money and wealth (materialism).
- Spiritual blindness and refusal to seek for the Truth.
- Tell somebody what God said, and he replies:
- “I am coming” but you won’t see him.
- “Tomorrow, I shall come”.
- “I heard your announcement,” as if he did what was directed.
- Tell someone that God said they should perform family deliverance and spiritual work, he replies, “Later, I shall bring the money”. And you won’t see him again.
- Seeing him again is only when he gets into problem or difficulty. Then, he runs back to you, and ready to run away again.
- “Afterwards, when the elders meet”.
- Many use avoidance. He would avoid you, even refuse to greet you. He would pretend as if he is not seeing you.
- Some would hate you, and many hate everything of God.
- Fights against you and the Truth.
- People come to steal blessing and run away again.
- They come for big and beautiful buildings. They forget that multitudes were seeking Jesus in the wilderness.
- They come for large crowd.
- They come for marriage.
- They come for deliverance. They easily forget the warnings of Jesus Christ. “…returns…”
- They come for breakthrough. They fail to understand that God builds rich men from the ground upwards. When God comes into your life, He would first blow away all the money and wealth gotten by evil means.
I remember one woman. She was old, poor and lowly. One day, I inquired about her life, why she was suffering, and she said, “My husband was a very rich man. He had several buildings with tenants in them. But God said I must not touch the money because it is blood money”.
- Tell some of God’s messages, for them to pray, and they would readily ask you, “How much shall I pay?” as if God is in need of money. Such people call God with their lips, but their hearts is far away from God.
- Invite them to prayers and worship, they say, “Remember me in your prayers”.
- They are always eager for immediate messages, instant visions and revelations. They are not ready to spend time with God or for God.
- Tell them to wait for one month only, and they rush to finalize arrangements. Only to come back to tell you to do the payer immediately, so that they would rush off with their plans. They forget that it is God who blesses people, who prospers efforts and protects from danger. They are impatient.
- Many are busy answering phone calls during worship. For it has made so many loose their blessings. Many are now crazy for handset and phone calls that they are always carrying handset about, always seeking for where to charge phone. When he enters your office or house, before you know it, he has removed important connection in an office and plugged in his handset. Beware of handsets! Many are so crazy that they carry about two or more handsets.
- Ask him to pay for spiritual books, and he says, “You suppose to share it free”. Where will one person get money to distribute books free to all the people on earth?
- Some would not accept books on messages.
- Some would accept, and are quick to return it immediately, “I don’t read this type of book.” And he is proud to walk away from you, neglecting books, which God said should be written. Do you know what it means to see God face to face? More than forty (40) times?
- Some ministers would rush to the altar, take the microphone and starting speaking against what God has directed? The worst set are those people who go about discouraging others who want to do what God said. They keep themselves busy criticizing and condemning the good works of the Holy Spirit.
- Wearing of black dresses of various shapes and styles, which the world call ‘corporate dress,’ out of ignorance and by the deception of the Devil.
- General disobedience to the word of God, occasioned by religious leaders, who do not even know that they are misleading people away from God.
