The Bible Warns We Will See Churches Corrupted

and Church Leaders No Longer Teaching Sound Doctrine . . .

The Bible clearly warns some churches will be corrupted from within . . .

       "Beloved, while I was very diligent to write to you

        concerning our common salvation,

        I found it necessary [compelled] to write to you

        exhorting you to contend earnestly for the faith

        which was once for all delivered to the saints.

        For certain men have crept in unnoticed, [church leaders]

        ungodly men, who turn the grace of our God into lewdness . . .

        [who corrupt, ignore, modify, deny, or refuse to teach God’s word in the Bible]

        But I want to remind you, though you once knew this,

        that the Lord, having saved the people out of the land of Egypt,

        afterward destroyed those who did not believe."

        (Jude 1:3-6)

       "Now the Spirit expressly says

        that in latter times some [religious leaders]

        will depart from the faith,

        giving heed to deceiving spirits and doctrines of demons

        [denying Christ, saying "all roads" lead to Heaven ... homosexuality, goddess worship, etc., etc.]

        speaking lies in hypocrisy,

        having their own conscience seared with a hot iron,

        forbidding to marry, and commanding to abstain from foods . . ."

        (1 Tim 4:1-3) 

Jesus warns will see "Lukewarm" Christians and churches no longer teaching, believing, or even knowing sound Biblical doctrine . . .

        Jesus says, "I know your works, that you are neither cold nor hot.

        I could wish you were cold or hot.

        So then, because you are lukewarm,

        [He is talking to people who call themselves Christians!]

        Because you say, ‘I am rich, have become wealthy,

        and have need of nothing’ [having enough money will keep many from knowing God]

        and do not know that you are wretched,

        miserable, poor, blind, and naked . . .

        And he who has an ear let him hear."  [This means this warning is for everybody]

        (Rev 3:15-17, 22)   [Many who call themselves "Christians" won't make it to Heaven]

We will see Churches and Church Leaders call evil "good" and good "evil" . . .

      "Woe to those who call  evil good, and good evil;

        who put darkness for light, and light for darkness;"

        (Isa 5:20  NKJ)     [Note:  "Woe" is a strong Biblical curse or torment ...]

And Jesus offers a stark warning to those Christians and Church Leaders  . . .

       "Not everyone who says to Me, 'Lord, Lord,' shall enter the Kingdom of Heaven ...

        Many will say to Me in that day, 'Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied [taught]

        in your Name, cast out demons in Your Name, and done many wonders in Your name?'

        And then (at the judgment), I will declare to them

        'I never knew you ... depart from Me  [departing from Heaven, into Hell]

        you who practice lawlessness [willfully doing or approving of things that contradict the Bible]"

        Matt 7:21-23  NKJ)

Note:  If you belong to a church or have a pastor/priest/minister/reverend who does not believe Jesus Christ is God who lovingly substituted Himself to suffer and die on the Cross for our sins in order to save us from the torment of Hell, or don't believe that all who simply believe in Jesus Christ and sincerely receive Him into their lives as their Lord and Savior will go to Heaven, or, if you go to a church or have a pastor/priest/minister/reverend who believes there is any other way into Heaven than through Jesus Christ, or, if you go to a church or have a pastor/priest/minister/reverend  who approves of any of those things the Bible calls "evil," or disapproves of any of those things the Bible calls "good," then, for your sakes, please leave and go find a church or pastor who believes and teaches the Bible!
