Proverbs26:…4Do not answer a fool according to his folly, Or you will also be like him. 5Answer a fool as his folly deserves, That he not be wise in his own eyes. 6He cuts off his own feet and drinks violence Who sends a message by the hand of a fool.…

You're calling me a fool?   I got my hands slapped for that kind of thing?  Are you so special?

Can you show the pertinent scriptures?  How can people be warned about false teachers if no one tells them about them?

Of course.  I do not have them all collated yet. As I said I'll post it all tonight.

Then I will respectfully wait for you to post it.  Will you do so here or start another thread?

I think it might be best if I started another thread.  I'll name it How to Deal with False Teachers.

What did the Apostles do with false teachers?  What did they instruct us to do with them?  We have a solemn duty to warn people about false teachers.  If we do not, and someone falls for the false doctrine, we will be held accountable as well.  We saw the danger but failed to warn anyone about it.  No one is saying that Osteen will go to hell.  If you go down that road, you have taken it too far, and now you actually are judging the man.  He could come around at some point, realize his error and correct it.  That is always the hope.  But it is in no way "error" to see doctrine, and a teacher that is quite obviously in error and both point them out and warn against them.  That is actually the biblical prototype for how it is supposed to be done.  If we truly care about someone, we always warn them against any danger that could befall them, including false teachers.

Not only that , but God holds that against those who do so.    I have THIS AGAINST YOU, you ALLOW that false prophtess to teach and to seduce the people.

OH yeah.   Its our duty to warn out against them.     For love desires none to perish.

I am not sure we have ever had a thread about that subject specifically.  I am anxious to see what you have to say.

This should be interesting ... We shall see if it agrees with scripture .

Accusations backed with facts tested by the spirit. are exactly what God has instructed.

You have already stated you know absolutely nothing about smiley mans teaching but yet you call him a man called by God.

Have you taken the time since then to do your homework? John MacArthur has many videos on youtube addressing the subject . his channel is gracetoyou

It is just as much your responsibility to defend the faith than it is mine or anyone elses. Unless of course, you are not up for the task!

When we have the truth in us;we recognize untruth and expose it! That is NOT railing accusations.

2 tim 2:15

 

1 Timothy 5:20

As for those who persist in sin, rebuke them in the presence of all, so that the rest may stand in fear.

Ephesians 5:11

 

Take no part in the unfruitful works of darkness, but instead expose them.

I love John Mcarthur, he is one of the few best great men of God in the world. :)

    • Exhortation - October 24, 2024

      Albert Finch posted a blog entry in Albert Finch Ministry,

      You are coming up higher in this season – above the assignments of character assassination and verbal arrows sent to manage you, contain you, and derail your purpose. Where you have had your dreams and sleep robbed, as well as your peace and clarity robbed – leaving you feeling foggy, confused, and heavy – God is, right now, bringing freedom back -- now you will clearly see the smoke and mirrors that were set to distract you and you will disengage.

      Right now God is declaring a "no access zone" around you, and your enemies will no longer have any entry point into your life. Oil is being poured over you to restore the years that the locust ate and give you back your passion. This is where you will feel a fresh roar begin to erupt from your inner being, and a call to leave the trenches behind and begin your odyssey in your Christ calling moving you to bear fruit that remains as you minister to and disciple others into their Christ identity.

      This is where you leave the trenches and scale the mountain to fight from a different place, from victory, from peace, and from rest. Now watch as God leads you up higher above all the noise, above all the chaos, and shows you where you have been seated all along with Him in heavenly places where you are UNTOUCHABLE. This is where you leave the soul fight, and the mind battle, and learn to fight differently.

      You will know how to live like an eagle and lead others to the same place of safety and protection that God led you to, which broke you out of the silent prison you were in. Put your war boots on and get ready to fight back! Refuse to lay down -- get out of bed and rebuke what is coming at you. Remember where you are seated and live from that place.

      Acts 1:8 - “But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you will be my witnesses … to the end of the earth.”

    • The Simchat Torah War -- Is this a Water Breaking Moment of Revival?

      George posted a topic in Biblical Topic Videos,

      George Whitten, the visionary behind Worthy Ministries and Worthy News, explores the timing of the Simchat Torah War in Israel. Is this a water-breaking moment? Does the timing of the conflict on October 7 with Hamas signify something more significant on the horizon?

    • Understanding the Enemy!

      George posted a topic in Study Group,

      Understanding the Enemy!

      I thought I write about the flip side of a topic, and how to recognize the attempts of the enemy to destroy lives and how you can walk in His victory!

      For the Apostle Paul taught us not to be ignorant of enemy's tactics and strategies.

      2 Corinthians 2:112  Lest Satan should get an advantage of us: for we are not ignorant of his devices. 

      So often, we can learn lessons by learning and playing "devil's" advocate.  When we read this passage,

      Mar 3:26  And if Satan rise up against himself, and be divided, he cannot stand, but hath an end. 
      Mar 3:27  No man can enter into a strong man's house, and spoil his goods, except he will first bind the strongman; and then he will spoil his house. 

      Here we learn a lesson that in order to plunder one's house you must first BIND up the strongman.  While we realize in this particular passage this is referring to God binding up the strongman (Satan) and this is how Satan's house is plundered.  But if you carefully analyze the enemy -- you realize that he uses the same tactics on us!  Your house cannot be plundered -- unless you are first bound.   And then Satan can plunder your house!

    • Abraham and Issac: Pictures of the Resurrection, Part 2

      George posted a topic in Study Group,

      Abraham and Issac: Pictures of the Resurrection, Part 2
      Shalom everyone,

      As we continue this series the next obvious sign of the resurrection in the Old Testament is the sign of Isaac and Abraham.

      Gen 22:1  After these things God tested Abraham and said to him, "Abraham!" And he said, "Here I am."
      Gen 22:2  He said, "Take your son, your only son Isaac, whom you love, and go to the land of Moriah, and offer him there as a burnt offering on one of the mountains of which I shall tell you."

      So God "tests" Abraham and as a perfect picture of the coming sacrifice of God's only begotten Son (Yeshua - Jesus) God instructs Issac to go and sacrifice his son, Issac.  Where does he say to offer him?  On Moriah -- the exact location of the Temple Mount.
