Self Deception
Luke 22:31-32 And the Lord said, Simon, Simon, behold, Satan hath desired to have you, that he may sift you as wheat: But I have prayed for thee, that thy faith fail not: and when thou art converted, strengthen thy brethren.
If Simon Peter was a Christian he would have been converted already since he was a disciple of Jesus, and even he had to pray for Peter, and still people think Jesus is the Father. It is false doctrine that makes people believe Jesus is God, doctrine buried deep in there heart, the unleavened bread that people eat.
John 15:19 If ye were of the world, the world would love his own: but because ye are not of the world, but I have chosen you out of the world, therefore the world hateth you.
He was not a Christian and neither were any of the disciples. They were called out by God, because naturally, Jesus chose them out of the world, and taught them how to turn to God.
Philippians 2:12 Wherefore, my beloved, as ye have always obeyed, not as in my presence only, but now much more in my absence, work out your own salvation with fear and trembling.
But even with that they still had work to do on themselves to be converted, and the beginning of that process was turning to the Father as Jesus instructed and be revealed knowledge not of flesh and blood, but knowledge from the spirit, the word of God.
Matthew 16:17-19 And Jesus answered and said unto him, Blessed art thou, Simon Barjona: for flesh and blood hath not revealed it unto thee, but my Father which is in heaven. And I say also unto thee, That thou art Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church; (On this rock not of flesh and blood are those called out of the world, ecclesia) and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it. (Because the word of God within a person is not subject to the wiles and lusts of one's own evil heart, that is the armour of God and helmet of salvation protecting you) And I will give unto thee the keys of the kingdom of heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt bind on earth shall be bound in heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven.
The latter part meaning you also get the power to call people out of this world (Again, not in the human sense), that is the whole point of preaching the good news, to make ready a people to be chosen by God.
Luke 1:17 And he shall go before him in the spirit and power of Elias, to turn the hearts of the fathers to the children, and the disobedient to the wisdom of the just; to make ready a people prepared for the Lord.
Not in the way the religious do it either, to be seen by men.
James 1:26 If any man among you seem to be religious, and bridleth not his tongue, but deceiveth his own heart, this man's religion is vain.
Alms of are the spirit, not the flesh, and the spirit can't been seen. When preaching you talk to the spirit of a man, not the character or personality of the man, because, again, God is no respecter of persons, for that dies when it dies like all flesh, and all old bottles decay. Understand what is really being said here. Those whose hearts you've prepared will have to be literally born again, regardless, all will have to be anyway, until their time of regeneration comes.
Luke 5:37-39 And no man putteth new wine into old bottles; else the new wine will burst the bottles, and be spilled, and the bottles shall perish. But new wine must be put into new bottles; and both are preserved. No man also having drunk old wine straightway desireth new: for he saith, The old is better.
Unfortunately, that is what all people identify with, having their own conversation with the old man, drinking the old wine, so they will not receive your words, and will find the new wine distasteful.
Matthew 13:44 Again, the kingdom of heaven is like unto treasure hid in a field; the which when a man hath found, he hideth, and for joy thereof goeth and selleth all that he hath, and buyeth that field.
Those who are ready in their day will hear, those who are not, won't. Simple as that really, but in time that treasure, the gospel you have preached will be found hidden in their field, and they will buy that field, turning to the Father, bringing forth good treasure, to hid in other fields.
John 14:2 In my Father's house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you.
Every mind is a mansion that needs to be prepared to hear the word of the Lord, and of the Father. Mansions that belong in one Kingdom.
Ephesians 4:22-23 That ye put off concerning the former conversation the old man, which is corrupt according to the deceitful lusts; And be renewed in the spirit of your mind;
So the point of preaching the gospel is to prepare the hearts of men in secret, sowing the seeds given to you by God, and so that God may rain knowledge upon them when he sees that person is ready to be rejuvenated in the spirit, ready to receive the new wine, in these last days.
Acts 2:17 And it shall come to pass in the last days, saith God, I will pour out of my Spirit upon all flesh: and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, and your young men shall see visions, and your old men shall dream dreams:
In a way it is like social engineering;
Psalm 10:17 Lord, thou hast heard the desire of the humble: thou wilt prepare their heart, thou wilt cause thine ear to hear:
But it is spiritual engineering, preparing the way of the Father in the hearts and minds of men, in secret, like this secret prophecy about revelation, written in a similitude.
Isaiah 55:10-11 For as the rain cometh down, and the snow from heaven, and returneth not thither, but watereth the earth, and maketh it bring forth and bud, that it may give seed to the sower, and bread to the eater: So shall my word be that goeth forth out of my mouth: it shall not return unto me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent it.
Like Jesus said, preach the gospel, and then follow him, into Heaven. Problem is, few have received it yet, and few there be that find the way. So you when you receive, you have to help prepare the way. That is doing God's will.
1 Corinthians 2:5-9 That your faith should not stand in the wisdom of men, but in the power of God. Howbeit we speak wisdom among them that are perfect: yet not the wisdom of this world, nor of the princes of this world, that come to nought: But we speak the wisdom of God in a mystery, even the hidden wisdom, which God ordained before the world unto our glory: Which none of the princes of this world knew: for had they known it, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory. But as it is written, Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love him.
That's the whole fellowship of the mystery thing. People forget that, and instead desire to exalt themselves in their churches, temples and mosques, electing themselves apostles and teachers of men. In short, seeking fame of some sort, and the honour of men. God is no respecter of persons, and neither should anyone else be. The people you see in front of you, are all people 100% ruled by their hearts, some good here, a little evil there, and the pollution's of the world, the pestilence, further contaminates the already deceitful heart.
Matthew 6:1-6 Take heed that ye do not your alms before men, to be seen of them: otherwise ye have no reward of your Father which is in heaven. Therefore when thou doest thine alms, do not sound a trumpet before thee, as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and in the streets, that they may have glory of men. Verily I say unto you, They have their reward. But when thou doest alms, let not thy left hand know what thy right hand doeth: That thine alms may be in secret: and thy Father which seeth in secret himself shall reward thee openly. And when thou prayest, thou shalt not be as the hypocrites are: for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and in the corners of the streets, that they may be seen of men. Verily I say unto you, They have their reward. But thou, when thou prayest, enter into thy closet, and when thou hast shut thy door, pray to thy Father which is in secret; and thy Father which seeth in secret shall reward thee openly.
Revelation, on which all are called out with, in secret, within. You have to be in that secret place to receive it, to understand it, and apply it. These things are not about the flesh in anyway.
Luke 17:20-21 And when he was demanded of the Pharisees, when the kingdom of God should come, he answered them and said, The kingdom of God cometh not with observation: Neither shall they say, Lo here! or, lo there! for, behold, the kingdom of God is within you.
Jesus being the first to teach people on how to receive revelation is the cornerstone of the knowledge which correctly turns people to the father to be converted in the first place. Man in his corruption has now turned that spiritual process into an earthly ritual.
Matthew 13:24-26 Another parable put he forth unto them, saying, The kingdom of heaven is likened unto a man which sowed good seed in his field: But while men slept, his enemy came and sowed tares among the wheat, and went his way. But when the blade was sprung up, and brought forth fruit, then appeared the tares also.
Ecclesia, a word that has been corrupted and replaced by the word Church in the New Testament. They're those who have sowed the tares amongst the wheat of what Jesus taught. Most people act like the Holy Spirit is weapon that one got from watching an anime or a marvel film. People think that they're like heroes, but in their haughtiness act like the villains, cursing others, exalting themselves above people not of their religion, believing themselves to be saved when they're not. They believe themselves to be holy, and yet wallow in the wanton lusts of their heart, a heart which they haven't circumcised in the spirit, so that they become the true Jews, chosen by the Father.
Revelation 3:9 Behold, I will make them of the synagogue of Satan, which say they are Jews, and are not, but do lie; behold, I will make them to come and worship before thy feet, and to know that I have loved thee.
They believe the Holy Ghost is something that can only be received in a church, yet it is from the Father within, in spirit where one receives the word of God. Heck, they'll believe the above is about the Jewish people because most can only see earthly things and not the spiritual.
Romans 2:29 But he is a Jew, which is one inwardly; and circumcision is that of the heart, in the spirit, and not in the letter; whose praise is not of men, but of God.
Again I say, God is no respecter of persons. Try and understand what that means, meaning you as you are now, identifying with the creature that you call whatever you call yourselves. That covering that covers the spirit.
John 14:26 But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you.
The holy spirit teaches you about your true self, the spirit and about the Father's will. And people should spread what is taught to them from the holy spirit, which is the good news, the revelations one receives which refreshes the spirit, back into the way of righteousness. Unfortunately with the religious, they only spread doctrines and traditions of men, for they don't desire the kingdom, they desire the praise and rule over men, and so can't understand the things of the spirit anyway.
Romans 10:3 For they being ignorant of God's righteousness, and going about to establish their own righteousness, have not submitted themselves unto the righteousness of God.
This following scripture Matthew 12:32 is especially used to put fear into people’s hearts, ironically doing exactly that they were told not to do. They believe that their belief in Jesus is their rod of iron that they desire to beat others with, thankfully their faith is feigned, and that sword they think they're waving around is nothing but a toothpick. Luckily for everyone, they are all a bunch of frauds and thieves.
2 Samuel 14:14 For we must needs die, and are as water spilt on the ground, which cannot be gathered up again; neither doth God respect any person: yet doth he devise means, that his banished be not expelled from him.
What it actually means that your stay on the Earth will be extended by one lifetime, if you reject what the Father has taught you.
Matthew 12:32 And whosoever speaketh a word against the Son of man, it shall be forgiven him: but whosoever speaketh against the Holy Ghost, it shall not be forgiven him, neither in this world, (this life) neither in the world to come. (the next life)
All here are banished, but not are expelled from Heaven forever, but as Jesus said, will not come out until the uttermost farthing has been paid, and make no mistake, here is the prison, not some mythical hell.
Matthew 5:25-26 Agree with thine adversary quickly, whiles thou art in the way with him; lest at any time the adversary deliver thee to the judge, and the judge deliver thee to the officer, and thou be cast into prison. Verily I say unto thee, Thou shalt by no means come out thence, till thou hast paid the uttermost farthing.
But they're keys to this prison, after all you can't pay the pay the price (which is what damnation means) if you're dead, and those keys are following what Jesus taught first and foremost, and that is turn to the Father, and he'll increase your understanding by adding knowledge to you, knowledge of the spirit.
Revelation 1:18 I am he that liveth, and was dead; and, behold, I am alive for evermore, Amen; and have the keys of hell and of death.
I suggest using them if you desire to free yourself. If not, they're plenty of tares in the world to get sidetracked by.
Proverbs 13:24 He that spareth his rod hateth his son: but he that loveth him chasteneth him betimes.
A good example of the tares sown by the children of the wicked one is 'Spare not the rod' and that has been used as an excuse to literally beat children with, and certain heavily religious cultures are all the more violent because of it, it is especially seen amongst their offspring. And that isn't even the worse things about interpreting the scriptures in the flesh. The rod, is the word of God, his revelations given to you in the spirit. Use them to teach, not beat people, physically, mentally or emotionally.
James 1:22 But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves.
Righteousness is a gift, and how most of the people are now, sinful in nature and unrighteous in mind, they’ll never receive it, let alone recognise it. Granted they can pretend to. Then again people have no problem lying to themselves in the deceit of their own hearts, not to mention others.
Matthew 12:36-37 But I say unto you, That every idle word that men shall speak, they shall give account thereof in the day of judgment. For by thy words thou shalt be justified, and by thy words thou shalt be condemned.
You have to be very careful about what you sow in people's hearts you know, also what comes out of your own mouth. So sow the good news, so that when the rains from above come from the Father, a bountiful harvest can be had for everyone in their own season.
Luke 6:45 A good man out of the good treasure of his heart bringeth forth that which is good; and an evil man out of the evil treasure of his heart bringeth forth that which is evil: for of the abundance of the heart his mouth speaketh.
Again, God is no respecter of persons, because all persons are a product of the heart. The having knowledge of both good and evil.
Psalm 101:7 He that worketh deceit shall not dwell within my house: he that telleth lies shall not tarry in my sight.
Look at all those spiritual and religious topics around the internet and witness the unrighteousness from those who claim to be chosen and special. So special, they think they can even decide with their laws based on their own corruption what women can do with their bodies. Just who needs saving from who? Most of people don't even know that they need to be saved from quite literally what is within them ruling over them. Thus they're completely blind in the spirit.
Proverbs 12:5 The thoughts of the righteous are right: but the counsels of the wicked are deceit.
They’re ill-disciplined, ruled by their deceitful hearts, which in turn seeks to do evil to their brothers and sisters for their own gain.
Jeremiah 23:1 Woe be unto the pastors that destroy and scatter the sheep of my pasture! saith the Lord.
Seeking to use knowledge of freedom against people, of which they unwittingly condemn themselves. Like said, such have their reward.
Isaiah 30:1 Woe to the rebellious children, saith the Lord, that take counsel, (In their hearts, the conversation with the old man) but not of me; and that cover with a covering, but not of my spirit, that they may add sin to sin:
Scripture shouldn't be used to rule and have power to control people, it is a power to free people, which is done by turning to the Father, and his spirit is what renews our spirit.
Acts 3:19 Repent ye therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out, when the times of refreshing shall come from the presence of the Lord.
And to be in the presence of the Father you have to be in the place that is holy, and made in the father image. The spirit, where the works of the soul are silent, because you have shut the door to them. Fasting from the world.
Revelation 2:25-27 But that which ye have already hold fast till I come. And he that overcometh, and keepeth my works unto the end, to him will I give power over the nations: And he shall rule them with a rod of iron; as the vessels of a potter shall they be broken to shivers: even as I received of my Father.
Until their time of regeneration comes, then people can only dream and lie about having it. But people don’t know the spirit of truth, neither can they receive it, because they don’t know it.
John 14:17 Even the Spirit of truth; whom the world cannot receive, because it seeth him not, neither knoweth him: but ye know him; for he dwelleth with you, and shall be in you.
Nor have people turned to the Father within, seeking after his righteousness, praying, and weeping about their pathetic state in the flesh, and instead covered in sin and shame, pretending to love god and Jesus and yet do nothing that they have commanded, and merely think that being a member of a religion created and ruled by man saves them, which then people use as a cloak of pride, thinking that it is camouflaging their tracks, all they while they judge others. They have their reward.
Luke 6:46 And why call ye me, Lord, Lord, and do not the things which I say?
They hunger after the praise of man, and not God, they seek man's words in a church, and not God. They worship an image of a dead man, crucified on Satan's instrument of destruction, and not the image of God, which is of the spirit. They are the deceived that do the deceiving.
Matthew 24:5 For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; (Christians) and shall deceive many.
They seek and thirst after the righteousness of man, and would rather be filled with their words ABOUT God, instead of the words OF God.
Matthew 5:6 Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be filled.
And whose gifts righteousness?
Romans 5:17 For if by one man's offence death reigned by one; much more they which receive abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness shall reign in life by one, Jesus Christ.)
The same veil preventing people from knowing the Father within, is preventing them from thirsting after the Father’s righteousness. Which as stated is a gift, not earned by works.
Psalm 94:3-5 Lord, how long shall the wicked, how long shall the wicked triumph? How long shall they utter and speak hard things? and all the workers of iniquity boast themselves? They break in pieces thy people, O Lord, and afflict thine heritage.
But by absolute faith in him. But alas people seek God without and not within, so cannot know him, unless the Father draws them to himself.
John 6:44 No man can come to me, except the Father which hath sent me draw him: and I will raise him up at the last day.
Like begets like. Act like the flesh and receive the rewards of flesh. Act like a spirit, pure and righteous, and reap the rewards of righteousness, not in this world, but in Heaven, when in twinkling of an ear at death you're transferred there.
John 3:6 That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit.
It is rare that one will find someone with the desire not to have any evil thoughts whatsoever, desiring to have the corruption purged out of their spirit, and making their hearts right, solely focused on God.
Mark 14:38 Watch ye and pray, lest ye enter into temptation. The spirit truly is ready, but the flesh is weak.
People just want power over others, and not for the good of the whole of humanity, which why all earthly religions, ideologies, politics,etc, etc are corrupt, from the lowest level to the top. People can carry on having faith in their political and religious leaders, and reap just what they deserve for being like King Solomon, and turning away from God, for the love of the world, for it is the wisdom of Solomon which rules this world, who received six hundred and threescore and six talents a year.
Revelation 13:18 Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number is Six hundred threescore and six.
People expect man to humble themselves before the flesh, and yet they haven’t made themselves worthy and humbled themselves before God in his holy temple, made in his image. They have turned away from him, and followed after the fables and old wives tails of mankind.
2 Timothy 4:3-4 For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears; And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables.
They are those who have made the Father's house a den of thieves, since they have hijack scripture, clothed it in their religion, that mourns (Dressed in sackcloth) after a dead man, a man, that was raised up as an imperishable spirit, and lives.
Isaiah 45:13 I have raised him up in righteousness, and I will direct all his ways: he shall build my city, and he shall let go my captives, not for price nor reward, saith the Lord of hosts.
God knows all hearts and people only deceive themselves. In short, people love the world too much, hence the desire to impress upon the people of the Earth for their own will, and their own beliefs, and not God’s. Whose will is that, all flesh shall see salvation,.
Job 13:16 He also shall be my salvation: for an hypocrite shall not come before him.
Most of the people, especially the religious desire to get in the way of the Father’s will. They desire for people to burn eternally in hell for thinking thoughts that are not theirs, for daring to dream different dreams. They believe the Father is limited, that he cannot redeem all people, even though that is his will.
Isaiah 48:10 Behold, I have refined thee, but not with silver; I have chosen thee in the furnace of affliction.
They forget that righteousness is a gift of God, and it is not just earned by their own beliefs, faith or even your works. It is a gift, who God can give whom he sees fits, for he searches the reins and the hearts of all that dwell in this furnace of affliction, that he chooses people out of.
Psalm 18:46 The Lord liveth; and blessed be my rock; and let the God of my salvation be exalted.
But because jealousy, anger and evil kicks in, because of the soul's desire to special, and exalted above all else, that abomination that leaves the spirit desolate. Devices not of God but of the Devil within people, using and being used by the heart’s wicked thoughts and imaginations of the heart, to further bind them to his kingdom. The Earth. He controls people to serve him and his lusts which are of the Earth. However the Father's will, won't be stopped, nor hindered. He knew all things since the beginning and he knows the end of all here.
John 12:28 Father, glorify thy name. Then came there a voice from heaven, saying, I have both glorified it, and will glorify it again.
