DEMONIC PREACHING AND THE SABBATH

DEMONS WILL HELP YOU!

JESUS FULFILLED THE SABBATH and has become our Sabbath. We rest in him.

The offense of the Gospel is the Cross. The Gospel says that you were a hopeless sinner and that God sent Jesus to die on the Cross to pay for your sin and to become sin for you so that, in him, you might become the Righteousness of God.

THE HUMAN SOUL DOES NOT LIKE TO FEEL HELPLESS. Demons will help you. They will give you as long a list as you demand, detailing what you must do to in order to attain to the holiness God demands…

THERE ARE HYPOCRITE SPIRITS OUT THERE… they pretend to be from God and they preach “holiness”. This doctrine of demons, sounds good, sounds righteous and feeds the ego…

1 Timothy 4:1 Now the Spirit explicitly says that in later times some will depart from the faith, paying attention to deceitful spirits and the teachings of demons, 2 through the hypocrisy of liars whose consciences are seared. 3 They forbid marriage and demand abstinence from foods that God created to be received with gratitude by those who believe and know the truth.

“No,” they preach, “what God did on the Cross was not enough. It was pretty good but not good enough. If you really want to be right with God, you need the Blood, but you need to follow these Old Covenant rules if you really want to be righteous.”

CHRIST IS RIGHTEOUS. AS A CHRISTIAN, YOU ARE “IN CHRIST”… you are righteous. IT IS A GIFT OF GOD, NOT OF WORKS, LEST ANY MAN SHOULD BOAST.

YOUR FOCUS SHOULD BE ON THE PERSON OF JESUS CHRIST… you should be following him, pleasing him, loving him. If you are saved, you will want to be righteous… you will hate sin and love your neighbor. We obey because He has saved us and made us righteous.

THESE DECEIVING SPIRITS WANT YOU TO TAKE YOUR EYES OFF JESUS. They want you to:

• Concentrate on the Torah, not Jesus…
• The Law, not Jesus…
• The Sabbath, not Jesus…
• The Name of God, not Jesus…
• The foods you do not eat, not Jesus.

THEY WANT YOU TO LOOK AT ANYTHING EXCEPT JESUS.

• They tell you that Jesus is not enough.
• They tell you that their little list of rules can make you holier than the Blood of Jesus has already made you.
• They tell you that their little list of rules can make you more righteous than the Blood of Jesus has already made you.
• They preach a “different gospel”.
• Their gospel is not Good News…
• Their gospel is a lie.

IN THE END, THEIR GOSPEL WILL HAVE YOU WORKING LIKE SOME KIND OF FOOL, trying to attain to the righteousness that God has already given you in Christ Jesus. Just like the Jews who lived under the Law before Jesus came, you will fail.

• You will not become righteous,
• You will spend your life feeling guilty for that which has been forgiven in Christ Jesus.
• You will be a failure as a human being and a Christian…
• You will be overrun with guilt because you cannot live up to an impossible standard.
• You will never accomplish what Jesus has called you to do…
• You will forget Jesus as you writhe and squirm under the very thing that Christ died to free you from!

JESUS PAID IT ALL…

• BELIEVE IN HIM,
• LOVE HIM,
• FOLLOW HIM.
• HE IS YOUR SABBATH.

IN HIM YOU WILL FIND REST FOR YOUR SOUL.
