If they say to you this is where He is, do not believe it ?
Matthew 24:4-5 And Jesus answered and said to them: “Take heed that no one deceives you. “For many will come in My name, saying, “I am the Christ,’ and will deceive many.
Matthew 24:23-28 ”Then if anyone says to you, ‘Look here is the Christ!’ or ‘There!’ do not believe it. “For false christs and false prophets will rise and show great signs and wonders to deceive, if possible, even the elect. “See I have told you beforehand. “Therefore if they say to you, ‘Look, He is in the desert! do not go out; or ‘Look, He is in the inner rooms!’ do not believe it. “For as lighting comes from the east and flashes to the west, so also will the coming of the Son of Man be. “For wherever the carcass is, there the eagles will be gathered together.
As Christians long to be with Christ, they must beware of being deceived by some very evil people. These people will use the name of Christ only to profit. They will be a lot like Judas Iscariot and have freely received and only willing to tell you where Christ is for money. Judas walked with the disciples and ate with them, and as far as any one knew he was as close to Jesus as any of the others. The only ones that knew Judas’ deceptions were Jesus and the men that conspired with Judas.
If you know of a church that has an inner room and they tell you that you must reach a certain level of holiness before you may enter, guess what?
God is the same and never changes, why is there so many different churches?
The world can come to one accord, the proof is in franchises. There is no reason that God’s people cannot come to one accord. The people that call themselves Christian cannot seem to come to agreement with what Jesus looks like, they cannot come to agreement to what a church is to do, to be in line with God’s will. They cannot even agree on what God’s building should look like. The only thing they all seem to agree on is that when they pass the baskets, it is for you to feed them instead of them feeding you?
When Jesus walked the earth and ministered He performed miracle after miracle, He made something out of nothing time and time again. He took very little and blessed it and made a whole, whole lot. What church is doing that today?
Jesus never took the people that gave, to His ministry and announced what they gave. He never changed what He said to keep them giving, and coming back. He just said what God led Him to say.
You can tell a McDonalds, when you see one, you can tell a Costco, and know what you are going to get when you walk in. Even Cracker Barrel and Waffle house are the same every where you go.
Is God letting us know that you can bring people to one accord by their desires, if they are all the same?
Is God letting us know that, you can put Jesus in the people, but you cannot put Jesus in a building?
