Woke Pastors, A Distorted Gospel & How CHRISTIANS Can Fight Back | Lucas Miles | Eric Metaxas on TBN

[@markmorris8410]

Another great discussion! Thank you, Eric, for continuing to sound the alarm regarding the lies from the adversary that are flooding into the local assemblies. Blessings

[@denisenewberry9749]

Thanks for being a voice of Truth, Eric!

[@Matt63393]

Pastor, Lucas Miles, I want to thank you for your courage, and your boldness, your willingness to pick up the true cross of our Jesus Christ of Nazareth. To charge forward, Exposing the lies of our enemy and the corrupt government behind this insanity. I praise God for the knowledge and wisdom that HE has bestowed upon you. Greatly enjoyed the interview. I will be buying the book. May the perpetual peace of our beloved Jesus Christ be with you always

[@jeffdavis7543]

Eric you have some good teachings that are presented. One of the many first things i was taught scripturslly was of the coming apostacy. At that time 40 yrs ago i didnt see as clear as i do now. Godly biblical truths continue to blow my mind, thanks for presenting speakers with descernment, rather than the rediculous hirelings that promote this present day apostatacy. Wow im always amazed at the eternal truths of Holy Scripture. God bless.

[@emilashton1246]

To quote The Second Coming by WB Yeats : ‘ The best lack all conviction, while the worst are filled with passionate intensity…’ Hireling shepherds leading a dumb and apostate church over a wide cliff.

Many people say they are Christians and they are NOT...THE LORD MESSIAH JESUS WILL separate the wheat from the tares.Only by HOLY SPIRIT working in us do we know the TRUTH.The Human mine can be twisted in many ways.Knowing GOD'S book and BEING TOTALLY IN LOVE WITH JESUS do we see the TRUTH...I SEND MUCH LOVE AND PRAYERS TO ALL IN THE MIGHTY NAME OF JESUS...from Joe in NY

I need this discussion. I attend a Methodist church on Wednesdays and the pastor's wife is full-on woke. I haven't known how to disagree with her with His truth. I'll use some of this information to help me say the correct words and share the correct theology.

[@garlandgrimes4648]

I really don't understand how men and women who say they believe in the God of the Bible can fall prey to such anti-biblical concepts. Didn't Christ promise that the Spirit would lead us into all truth? We all have errors in our theology, but how can so many accept ideas that are diametrically opposed to the gospel? Where is the discernment? It is one thing for new and immature believers to fall into error, but we are talking about Church leaders here, and about deadly errors. If someone is not being led by the Spirit of God, then does he even have the Spirit? The apostle John did not mince words: "By this you know the Spirit of God: every spirit that confesses that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is from God, and every spirit that does not confess Jesus is not from God. This is the spirit of antichrist" (1 John 4:2-3) Apostasy is running rampant across the Church, in every denomination, and worldwide.

I know somebody who is LGBTQ friendly, and who has, well, turned 'woke'. She talked about it is good that her 'church is LGBTQ friendly, and how their Sunday School study was studying a book about "Ecological Conscienceness". NOT studying scripture. She said. "some heavy stuff, but I like it..." Truly sad. I told her that our Sunday was 'uplifting praise and worship'. We must all thank God every day that we see TRUTH, and that we have Salvation thru HIS grace.

He was talking about B. L. M... and trying to find a way to show love and support for the many black people, who are drawn in and incited to violence because of the reality of some 'racist' and 'police state' incidents in our law enforcement. I am quite sure he is not, in any way, referring to 'defund', or any other anti law enforcement.

Acts 20:29-30 29 I know that after I leave, savage wolves will come in among you and will not spare the flock. 30 Even from your own number men will arise and distort the truth in order to draw away disciples after them. Galatians 1:6-10 6 I marvel that you are turning away so soon from Him who called you in the grace of Christ, to a different gospel, 7 which is not another; but there are some who trouble you and want to pervert the gospel of Christ. 8 But even if we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel to you than what we have preached to you, let him be accursed. 9 As we have said before, so now I say again, if anyone preaches any other gospel to you than what you have received, let him be accursed. 10 For do I now persuade men, or God? Or do I seek to please men? For if I still pleased men, I would not be a bondservant of Christ. 2 Corinthians 11". 3-4 3 But I fear, lest somehow, as the serpent deceived Eve by his craftiness, so your minds may be corrupted from the [a]simplicity that is in Christ. 4 For if he who comes preaches another Jesus whom we have not preached, or if you receive a different spirit which you have not received, or a different gospel which you have not accepted-you may well put up with it!

[@wishIwuzskiing]

Two comments. One, materialism and the focus on the superficial has been in the hearts of mankind since the beginning when even Jesus Christ warned about those who value fine clothing and the best seats at table. What our modern world had done is, with immediate and broad communication tools, provide a constant barrage of messages in music, movies, TV, print media that focuses on the material, the superficial. Where possessions and popularity is the measure of success. The house, the cars, the jewelry ... those are the measure of "success" which, if they become our "god" drag us far away from humility, grace, peace. It's one thing for a church to build a cathedral to honor God for the next 1,000 years and ALL the glory is to God, it's another to build a church that focuses the attention on what the Pastor says and does. Christianity should ALWAYS be about a humble and passionate sharing of what Jesus Christ says where the Pastor is simply passing on the Word. Two, the Catholic Church is very intimately aware of Communism and Socialism having survived harsh persecution under both. The best, most direct example is Saint Pope John Paul II, as a lay person and then priest living under BOTH in Poland. Upon becoming Pope, in 1979 he traveled to Poland under the Communists at the time and made the famous speech in the town square of Warsaw. The crowd was NOT chanting "down with Communism" or "death to the Communists". They were chanting "We want God, We want God..." for 20 minutes. And the communist leaders in Poland then realized, they had lost. The people spoke to what their hearts and souls needed, which is what all our souls need... we need God to fill that God sized hole in our hearts.

What I'm seeing now more and more in churches is acceptance of these ideologies when family members stray from the faith and become indoctrinated to the left way of thinking. We have lost sight of the fact that our compassions fail, the Lords never do.

[@princesssweetpea9205]

As discussed... there has always, always, been some apostasy and those who preach 'another gospel'. And we are told to look out for this and to keep if from affecting the 'church'. Yes, this will be a real epidemic now in these last days. Satan is alive and well in churches today, preaching his false 'woke' gospel'. Deceiving and leading many people astray. We are to seek TRUTH. And do not have a spirit of confusion, but of sound mind. In the end times, those that seek and have LOVE of the truth, will be saved. In the end times, "they will seek for themselves teachers who will preach a false gospel to itching ears." And, also, know that further understanding and revelation are always being given. Know that the ideology of an early pre-tribulation is a confused and false doctrine. As well as the ideology of those who are not saved, and 'sinners', sent to suffer hell fire for eternity. ( Remember. ALL are sinners.. NONE are good... All of our righteousness are as filthy rags. ) A short look at basic Scripture will show TRUTH. We have never been promised to escape tribulation. There has been, and will always be tribulation. We are to rejoice, be patient, and to endure/persevere in tribulation. We ARE promised to escape WRATH... (the seven bowls/vials of God's wrath that are poured upon the earth at the end.) Know that tribulation and wrath are TWO very different things. (this is where understanding is made clear) Those people mentioned in Revelation, those described, who have come 'out of' the great tribulation, were IN the tribulation. Notice the verse says "OUT OF..." which clearly shows that they were, indeed, IN the great tribulation. Also, we will know the antichrist and the beast. "And those that endure UNTIL THE END, and who do not accept the mark of the beast, shall be saved." Those who are not saved, will, later, after the 1000 years, be judged and sent to DEATH. Yes, the SECOND DEATH. (Revelation) The wages of sin is DEATH. We must be saved, lest we PERISH. The lake of fire has been prepared for SATAN and his demons. Who ARE eternal beings. The false ideology and threat of hell-fire is also one of Satan's biggest and most effective deceptions. How many countless numbers of people have been kept from hearing the true gospel, because of the 'threat of hell fire'. We, are not eternal beings.. We were created of the dust of the earth, and are given God's breath of life. Which goes back to God when we die. For those who are saved. They are resurrected, changed, transformed, INCORRUPTIBLE. (eternal) as the angels who do not die. The SECOND DEATH has no power over them. They shall never perish. Thus, they are reborn as spiritual and eternal beings, and can be with the Lord, forever. AMEN
