Beware!
Matthew 7:13-15
Jesus warned us…
“Beware of false prophets, who come to you in sheep’s clothing,
but inwardly they are ravenous wolves.
Matthew 7:15
Your TV is filled with False ProphetsBut there were also false prophets
among the people, even as there will be false teachers among you, who will secretly bring in destructive heresies,
even denying the Lord who bought them, and bring on themselves swift destruction.
And many will follow their destructive ways, because of whom
the way of truth will be blasphemed. By covetousness
they will exploit you with deceptive words...
2 Peter 2:1-3
The Most Famous of Them All
What is Wrong with Joel Osteen’s Teaching?
We have a right to live in total victory! I want you to get that down on the
inside. Not partial victory where we have a good family, we have good
health, but we constantly struggle in our finances.
That’s not total victory. If God did it for you in one area, he can do it for you
in another area. Get a vision for it. Don’t get
stagnant…He has paid the price so that we may be
totally free.
That means free from bad habits and addictions;
free from fear and worry; free from discouragement and depression; free from
poverty and lack, free from low self esteem.
God wants us to be totally free.
The scripture tells us to take hold of all Christ
died and rose again for…You’ve gotta know that
you not only have a right to be free, but God’s
already empowered you with all you need to
overcome.
You’re not a sick person fighting to get well, you’re a well person fighting off sickness. God made you healthy and whole. Our
original state is total freedom.
Let me assure you, he didn’t create you to be
average. He didn’t create you to barely get by. Have all kinds of things holding
you back. You’ve gotta get the right vision.
God created you to be totally free. To have
peace in your mind. To walk in divine health. To have good relationships.
To have plenty to pay your bills. God created us to be
victors and not victims.
That is not Right
Excludes Jesus
