"Warnings About False Teachers"

It was yesterday that  I was stirred in my spirit by Holy Spirit to share this scripture with you. I became a bit distracted and caught up in trying to help another that I neglected to do what was placed upon my heart to do. Do not let distractions take precedent over Holy Spirit calling you OK. It is so very easy to step out in faith to be the knight in shining armor for another but do not do to it at the expense of others. Does that make sense? When it is God there will always be enough room made in the day to accomplish it all. Not neglecting one for the other. I apologize if you were suppose to hear these words yesterday and you were seeking a word from the Lord and it was delayed a day. My heartfelt apology I do offer to you. This so stirred within me when I read this that I am going to type it all out for you. It comes from God's Word Bible translation 2 Peter 2: 1-22:
"False prophets were among God's people, in the past, as false teachers will be among you. They will secretly bring in their own destructive teachings. They will deny the Lord, who has bought them, and they will bring themselves swift destruction. Many people will follow them in their sexual freedom and will cause others to dishonor the way of truth. In their greed they will use good-sounding arguments to exploit you. The verdict against them from long ago is still in force, and their destruction is not asleep.
God didn't spare angels who sinned. He threw them into hell, where he has secured them with chains of darkness and is holding them for judgment.
God didn't spare the ancient world either. He brought the flood on the world of ungodly people, but he protected Noah and seven other people. Noah was his messenger who told people about the kind of life that has God's approval.
God condemned the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah and destroyed them by burning them to ashes. He made those cities an example to ungodly people of what is going to happen to them. Yet, God rescued Lot, a man who had his approval. Lot was distressed by the lifestyle of people who had no principles and lived in sexual freedom. Although he was a man who had God's approval, he lived among the people of Sodom and Gomorrah. Each day was like torture to him as he saw and heard the immoral things that people did.
Since the Lord did all this, he knows how to rescue godly people when they are tested. He also knows how to hold immoral people in punishment on the day of judgment. This is especially true of those who follow their corrupt nature along the path of impure desires and who despise the Lord's authority.
These false teachers are bold and arrogant.They aren't afraid to insult the Lord's glory. Angels, who have more strength and power than these teachers, don't bring an insulting judgment against them from the Lord. These false teachers insult what they don't understand. They are like animals, which are creatures of instinct that are born to be caught and killed. So they will be destroyed like animals and lose what their wrongdoing earned them.
These false teachers are stains and blemishes. They take pleasure in holding wild parties in broad daylight. They especially enjoy deceiving you while they eat with you. They're always looking for an adulterous woman. They can't stop looking for sin as they seduce people who aren't sure of what they believe. Their minds are focused on their greed. They are cursed.
These false teachers have left the straight path and wandered off to follow the path of Balaam, son of Beor. Balaam loved what his wrongdoing earned him. But he was convicted of evil. A donkey, which normally can't talk, spoke with a human voice and wouldn't allow the prophet to continue his insanity.
These false teachers are dried-up springs. They are a mist blown around by a storm. Gloomy darkness has been kept for them. They arrogantly use nonsense to seduce people by appealing to their sexual desires, especially to sexual freedom. They seduce people who have just escaped from those who live in error. They promise these people freedom, but they themselves are slaves to corruption. A person is a slave to whatever he gives in to.
People can know our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ and escape the world's filth. But if they get involved in this filth again and give in to it, they are worse off than they were before. It would have been better for them never to have known the way of life that God approves of than to know it and turn their backs on the holy life God told them to live. These proverbs have come true for them: "A dog goes back to its vomit," and "A sow that has been washed goes back to roll around in the mud."
My apology again for not sharing this with you yesterday. You see, I am continually learning myself on a daily, even an hourly basis to be obedient and follow through with Holy Spirit direction. Be at peace this very night or day and trust Holy Spirit, He will show you the false teachers to keep away from. If you ask Him He will give you the strength to break away from them and show you a path to escape from them and take you far away from them and their false teachings. So many are being deceived in this very day in which we live in. Even the elect are being deceived. How much more stronger must we seek the voice of Holy Spirit to direct our path if the very elect are being deceived. If you have fallen in your walk with the Lord ask Him to forgive you and to start you off on the right path with the right group of people to gather around you. There really are very sound teachers out there teaching the word of God and not creating some false doctrine to cause you to get sucked in with the ultimate fall that could cost you your walk with Jesus. If you are blessed with discernment of spirits then ask Holy Spirit to let it kick in even stronger than before. Never be afraid to call the false teacher's bluff and reveal it. Expose the enemy and he will have to retreat. If you allow the enemy to torture your mind then you are making the conscience decision to allow this and you cannot say that you were not warned. Why would you settle for vomit or a roll around in the mud when God has greater plans for your life...to be with Him in heaven for all eternity. I would venture to guess that Noah and his family were most thankful that they followed the voice of the Lord and were spared from total destruction. As the mighty waves filled the land and the destruction was consuming the lives in the flood do you think that maybe one or two people possibly thought in their mind as death was upon them that maybe they should not have mocked Noah or God and turned from their wicked ways and lifestyle?
