Ezekiel 18-19, Isaiah 3, Jude 1
What God said to me – There are always going to be people outside of the faith who don’t know Me or accept My ways who will mock you and Me and live ungodly, disrepute lives. However, the people who should cause you the most concern are the people within the church who say they are of the faith, but who are not. They have crept in talking about tolerance and acceptance and watering down the gospel to make it palatable to everyone. Rather than preaching repentance of sin to those who are living sinful lives, they preach tolerance and acceptance of sin to those who are Mine. Like the false prophets of old, they crept into the church unnoticed with a message that sounds good on the surface – “God is love”, but they have subtlety changed it to “because of God’s love everyone is welcome and accepted” and they reject the idea of repentance and turning away from their sin. They neglect preaching about holiness and judgment. You must stay alert. You must know My word and stay close to Me so you can discern false teaching and take a stand against it.
