Beware of any professing Teacher who does not Preach Jesus Christ

There are many professing teachers of the Word of God, who claim to serve God. 1 Peter 2:1-2 warns:

But there were false prophets also among the people, even as there shall be false teachers among you, who privily shall bring in damnable heresies, even denying the Lord that bought them, and bring upon themselves swift destruction. And many shall follow their pernicious ways; by reason of whom the way of truth shall be evil spoken of.

Indeed, there are many false teachers who claim to be servants of God but are really just servants of the devil. Anyone who has heard the teachings of many different teachers will have encountered a false teacher.  

The purpose of a teacher is to edify the body of Christ so that she may come into the knowledge of Christ in the fullness of Christ:

And he gave some, apostles; and some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and some, pastors and teachers;
 
For the perfecting of the saints, for the work of the ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ:


Till we all come in the unity of the faith, and of the knowledge of the Son of God, unto a perfect man, unto the measure of the stature of the fulness of Christ:

That we henceforth be no more children, tossed to and fro, and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the sleight of men, and cunning craftiness, whereby they lie in wait to deceive;

But speaking the truth in love, may grow up into him in all things, which is the head, even Christ:

From whom the whole body fitly joined together and compacted by that which every joint supplieth, according to the effectual working in the measure of every part, maketh increase of the body unto the edifying of itself in love.

(Ephesians 4:11-16).

A teacher is to teach the truth who is Christ (John 14:6). Therefore, any teacher who not only teaches falsehood about Jesus, but fails to preach Christ and calls himself or herself a teacher is a false teacher. 

Such false teachers teach their own doctrine, much of which may be mixed with the truth about Christ. It is this very mix which is poison for the soul, and which leads to damnation. Anyone who follows the false teaching of such false teachers will be led astray from Christ and into Hellfire. If a teacher who teaching you are heeding is a false teacher, flee, lest you enter the fires of Hell with him or her.

A false teacher can be discerned from a true teacher. Ask God to give you discernment to discern the false teachers. If a teacher is teaching doctrines that are not found in the Bible like that of "spiritual covering", "spiritual fathers and mothers" and "kings and queens",  flee! For such are false teachers. 

If a teacher is fixated on a doctrine other than Jesus Christ, such as creation, Biblical gender roles, marriage and family, and does not preach Christ Himself, he or she is a false teacher.  

If a teacher claims that something which is not needed for salvation, is needed for salvation, such as the doctrine that one needs to be married and have a family to be saved, he or she is a false teacher.

Run from such false teachers!

Repent of your sins. Turn to Jesus Christ today.

Signs of a Person under the spirit of mammon

Both the unsaved and saved can be under the spirit of mammon. Do not be deceived! An unsaved person can only serve mammon because it is not part of his nature to submit to God in any way (Romans 8:7). However, the Christian can most definitely yield to the temptations of mammon just as he can yield to the temptations of satan. This is what is means for a Christian to be under the spirit of mammon. The signs of a person being under the spirit of mammon are: The person does not understand the spirit of mammon. This is because he or she is blinded by it and therefore cannot see it. The person reacts whenever being confronted with being told that they are under the spirit of mammon, or being told that they may be under it. This is not the person themselves reacting, but the spirit of mammon reacting. The person is self-satisfied with the abundance that they have. This is especially the case with many Christians today. They are happy with having a family, a well-paying job, security

Two types of contentment

The world seeks contentment. It seeks to be contented in pursuit of all kinds of things, whether it be money, health, wealth, romance, sex, careers or family. It does not necessarily seek after riches to be content. However, that one does not seek after money as the first priority, but other things that are typically associated with good traditional values, such as family, does not in any way mean that one is content in the godly sense. By no means! A person can be a "conservative" and "religious" but just as earthly as the "liberal". There are two types of contentment: earthly contentment and godly contentment. Earthly contentment finds its fulfillment and satisfaction in things that are passing away, not necessarily money, but also things like family, education and children. Yes, that's right. Many professing American Christians think that they could never be under the spirit of mammon because they care for their families and love their families, a

The spirit behind Debt, the spirit of Mammon, seeks to Blind, Control, Enslave and Dominate by debt

Many people just cannot understand what usury is for what it is. Thus, in order for people to understand what exactly usury is, they must be made to understand debt first. Debt is not merely money to be repaid. It has power. Debt indeed is power, which comes from a source not from God: For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places (Ephesians 6:12).  One can discern that debt has a power behind it if one uses one's godly discernment. Debt brings spiritual bondage to a person, not merely financial bondage, but spiritual bondage. The real issue with debt for all people whether unsaved or saved is that it keeps people from fully serving God. It is a spiritual stronghold of mammon that panders to the flesh, to make a God-hater even more hostile against God, by feeding on his flesh to increase its appetite even more. It is also a spiritual stronghold
