04/20/26 THE DOWNWARD SPIRIAL
I am seeing more and more "Bible Teachers," "Bible Scholars" teaching more and more lies.
For instance, the idea that the "Sons of God" in Genesis 6 were either angels, or fallen angels, or some other group of "gods" has been a lie of the devil for a long time. However, this deception is becoming popular and widespread today. Along with other false teachings found in (so-called) "lost books of the Bible," this lie is now being taught by some of the leading and popular "teachers" who call themselves Christian.
Many of them rely on the works of Satan rather than the revealed, inerrant, infallible Holy Bible for their authority. They are ready to jump onto some strange doctrine and ignore and reject Biblical truth. They claim to throw light on the word of God by piecing together a patchwork theology of writings that are false in their assertions, false in their authenticity, false in their genuineness, false in their historicity, and false in their doctrine.
There are "teachers" who are held in high esteem by a large number of "Christian" people who readily admit that they interpret the Holy Bible as viewed by extra-Biblical writers and the teachings of mythology.
This is not a surprise. Whenever someone substitutes the word of man for the word of God, there is going to be confusion and deception.
As Christendom (cultural Christianity) replaced Biblical Christianity, truth was mixed with Secularism, Paganism, Humanism, Naturalism, Demonism, and Hedonism.
People prefer the sensational, the so-called "hidden truths," the "secret plan," and the "lost history" of the Bible. People are looking for the conspiratorial and the sensational rather than the truths that conform us to the image of Jesus; the truths that make us righteous, loving.
If it is a doctrine (a teaching) that does not set you free from sin or make you pure, even as He is pure, then you need to step back, examine your belief system, surrender your mind and life fully to Christ, and abandon the self-gratifying, mind-puffing corruptions you are being taught.
America (along with the rest of the Western world, has been moving away from God and His word for so long that the Western mind is more confused about God's word and salvation than the so-called backward countries of the world.
Modern Christianity gets all bent out of shape when they hear the word, RELIGION. Yes, RELIGION is,“
"Belief in a specific supreme being, and a form of worship and service to that supreme being.”
In this sense Christianity is a religion, since we have a belief in the God of the Bible and a systematic form of worshiping and serving Him. But we have more than just religion, we have salvation, which is offered in the Christian religion.
Yet, the problem with the modern Western world is that it has rejected Biblical truth for more convenient and self-gratifying religions. Therefore, I say,
"Give me that old-time religion."
Give me that salvation that delivers from all sin, that purifies the believer completely, that conforms the believer to the likeness of Christ, that fills the believer with perfect love and Divine truth.
