I asked God about preachers, teachers, pastors and people… who emphatically share the truth of the word of God…right up to the point where they (without skipping a beat) suddenly switch to emphatically sharing lies, false doctrines, and traditions of men (which still sound like the word of God).
That seemed marvelous & questionable to me as to why he would do that instead of doing something to destroy, remove or clearly expose the errors to prevent the people(hearers) from being deceived BY those errors & lies..
He said (only slightly paraphrased): "That's the tares among wheat. If I deal with them [immediately] on what is wrong, it would devastate them to the point where they would stop declaring the truth they are so passionately declaring. Both must grow together until harvest, otherwise the truth they proclaim amongst the lies would stop being proclaimed. At harvest, it will become evident which portions are fruitless.”
Does that make sense? (END of PART 1)
- Sometimes (most times) it seems they don't even realize that they've switched.
- Probably because they don't.. know.. or realize.. that they've switched.
- Yet God will completely honor the “word of God" part, fully… giving an impression that God honors & supports that person, and their messaging & ministry, fully.
