OTHER PATHWAYS TO GOD

FALSE GOSPEL – JESUS SAVED YOU BY SUFFERING IN HELL

Copeland says, "Jesus went into hell to free mankind from the penalty of Adam's high

treason...When His blood poured out it did not atone. Jesus spent three horrible days and

nights in the bowels of this earth getting back for you and me our rights with God. "1

This Biblically ignorant so-called “Bible teacher” spreads his heretical soul killing doctrines

that THE BLOOD OF JESUS POURED OUT, IT DID NOT ATONE! And you follow him

AS THOUGH HE IS A GOD and hate me for telling you the truth! Heb. 9:22, “And almost

all things are by the law purged with blood; and without shedding of blood is no remission.”

If someone teaches that Jesus didn't obtain our salvation at the cross but finished it in hell by

suffering and needed to be born again that is another Gospel. The bible is clear it is the bloodshed

at the mercy seat that forgave us. If someone teaches we can all do what the apostles did, that is

another Gospel.

(Gal 1:6-9), "I marvel that ye are so soon removed from him that called you into the grace

of Christ unto another gospel: Which is not another; but there be some that trouble you, and

would pervert the gospel of Christ. But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other

gospel unto you than that which we have preached unto you, let him be accursed. As we said

1 (Ken Copeland, Personal letter from Ken Copeland, Ft. Worth Texas, March 12, 1979. (D. R. McConnell, A Different

Gospel, page 118)

before, so say I now again, if any man preach any other gospel unto you than that ye have

received, let him be accursed."

Another gospel; the same sort"; heteros expresses a qualitative difference and denotes

"another of a different sort.”Paul speaks of "a different (heteros), which is not another" in

contrast to any other Gospel (allos, another like the one he preached),

TRUE MINISTERS MUST MAKE THEIR STAND FOR CHRIST

THE SPIRIT OF ERROR

Copeland takes a mortal stab at the Gospel and the blood sacrifice of Our Lord Jesus Christ.

Every cult leader devises a bloodless religion which absolutely separates their religion from

true Christianity. If Jesus Christ is not the Lord and Master of your life, He is NOT your

Savior. ALL opponents of this doctrine DENY the Lord Jesus Christ and turn the grace of

God into lasciviousness by saying that saved people may live just like the world. Only the

devil would want you to believe that. The blood of Jesus is so POWERFUL that it will give

you a new mind. And will save your soul. Read Romans and Hebrews with clear eyeballs and

see for yourself.

The Bible warns, “And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of

your mind, that ye may prove what [is] that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God,” (Rom.

12:2).

The Apostle Paul tells us in (1 Cor.11: 19), why God allows heresy to dwell in the midst of His

Church. Paul says, “There must be also heresies among you, that they which are approved may

be made manifest among you," If you are a true believer, you will be able to discern the real

from the false! Give God glory for it is a gift to be able to discern good from evil. God’s Word

and His anointing are standards that place our faith on firm foundations. It is by means of iniquity

(self-will) that the root of error takes control.i

The Greek word, heresy, according to Liddell and Scott, means taking for oneself, choosing, or

choice. The things chosen, and so plan, purpose a course of action or thought. From this we get a

philosophic principle, a sect, and a heresy.

Webster's International Dictionary defines Heresy: Adherence to a religious opinion that contrary

to an established dogma of a church; dissent from a dominant theory or opinion in any field group

or school of thought centering on a particular heresy.

Therefore, heresy is not so much rejecting as selecting. The heretic simply selects the part of

the scriptures he or she wants to stress, and lets the rest go. How prone we are to take to ourselves

those parts of the truth that please us and ignore the other parts. This is heresy! Heresies are a

direct result of an intellectual concept becoming crystallized into a religious system of teaching

that is not Scriptural. This is the case with the multifarious sects which divide Christendom today.

The book of Jude supplies us with a simple, straightforward summary of such sects, "These be they

who separate themselves, sensual, having not the Spirit," (Jude 19). Their philosophies are built,

not on the full and glorious work of the Holy Spirit of God that exalts Jesus Christ, making His

person the grand, central theme of their witness but on some sideline doctrine, which divides

instead of uniting.

What are the "doctrines of devils”? What is the result of a “spirit of error?” Can a spirit of

whoredom rule over a church? The Apostle Paul warned Christians to beware of deceivers but

also to take heed that he would not deceive himself (I Cor. 3:18). Jesus also cautioned Believers

to beware of self-deception in (Lk. 21:8). From the beginning of the Church throughout its history,

Satan has attacked by using evil deceivers. "Evil men and seducers shall wax worse, deceiving

and being deceived," (II Tim. 3:13). 2

BEWITCHING BLINDING DEMONS

The Apostle Paul was absolutely amazed when he returned to the Galatians Church to find those

people that he had taught about Jesus totally bewitched. He asked them, (Gal. 3:1), “O foolish

Galatians, WHO hath bewitched you, that ye should not obey the truth, before whose eyes

Jesus Christ hath been evidently set forth, crucified among you?”

The best is yet to come for the saved people of God, the beautiful born-again Bride of the Savior.

The worst is yet to come for the sinner that rejects Christ, refuses His love, salvation, forgiveness

and future reign and glory.

NEW WORLD ORDER RELIGION

"Interfaith Meeting Gives Birth to United Religions", by Richard Scheinin, Mercury

News Religion and Ethics Writer, Mercury Center, San Jose Mercury News

United Religions Initiative - Youth Global Network Symbol For New Global Religion ii

"Nearly 200 delegates wrapped up a week-long interfaith meeting at Stanford on Friday, predicting

they had given birth to a movement as well as a spiritual institution: The United Religions. The

'spiritual United Nations', as some have referred to it, would be a world assembly for humanity's

myriad spiritual traditions. The international 'summit conference' brought together delegates from

every continent to inaugurate formal efforts to figure out the organization's structure and mission

and launch a charter-writing process. After several years of talking, the initiative's planners had

finally gotten down to business." iii

" 'You are deputized!', the Rev. William E. Swing, bishop of the Episcopal Diocese of California,

told delegates as they prepared to go home. 'Tell the people that there is a United Religions, and

that somewhere in the world, it is beginning to happen: that the religions are going to have an oasis

where they can talk about peace.'[This conference was held June 23-27, 1997] "

We have been predicting for a full decade now, that the current Ecumenical Movement was a

precursor to the global religion of Antichrist, which, according to Scriptural Prophecy, is to be

initially headed the False Prophet. Before we go any further in our current story, we need to first

quickly review some basic information.

1) The key Biblical Prophecy-- The False Prophet Foretold and Described

Revelation 13:11 -- "And I beheld another beast coming up out of the earth; and he had two horns

like a lamb, and he spake as a dragon. And he exerciseth all the power of the first beast before him,

and causeth the earth and them which dwell therein to worship the first beast..."

This is the key Scripture which tells us that the 'Second Beast', following the First Beast in

Revelation 13:1-10 [Antichrist] will lead the peoples of the entire world into a worship of

Antichrist. Bible scholars have historically called this 'Second Beast', the False Prophet.

Further, we know that this 'Second Beast' will be a Christian leader, a counterfeit Christian leader;

look carefully at the description given him, "he had two horns like a lamb". Of course, Jesus Christ

is consistently referred to as the "Lamb of God" or the "Lamb which taketh away the sins of the

world". [John 1:29, 36] Therefore, a lamb has come to symbolize the True Savior of the World,

Jesus Christ. So, this passage holds forth for us a counterfeit lamb, a leader who claims to be

"Christian" and who is accepted as such by the vast majority of the peoples of the world.

However, we know this Prophet is counterfeit and Satanic by the next phrase in Rev 13:11, "and

he spake as a dragon". In Scripture, Satan is referred to as a "dragon" [Revelation 12:9], so we

know that this False Prophet will be empowered by Satan, just as Antichrist is empowered by

Satan. Later, in Rev 16:13-14, we see a picture of both Antichrist and the false Prophet being

indwelt by demonic entities which appear to the Apostle John as green orbs [this is a common type

of demonic possession, by the way, afflicting many in the New Age religion]. "And I saw three

unclean spirits like frogs come out of the mouth of the dragon, and out of the mouth of the beast,

and out of the mouth of the false prophet. For they are the spirits of devils, working miracles,

which go forth unto the kings of the earth and of the whole world, to gather them to the battle of

that great day of God Almighty." iv

TRANSFORMATION UNITY

"And many false prophets will rise up and deceive and lead many into error…" (Matt. 24:11). We

should expect false "Christian" leaders to arise, to give false assurances to Christians and lead them

astray. The fact that we are seeing such a huge number of just such false leaders giving proof

positive that we are living in the Last Days of Time.

A major emphasis of the Transformations Movement is unity amongst the churches in the

community. Reconciliation between different denominations and various churches are essential

for community transformation to take place. If communities are to be effectively “evangelized,”

unity amongst the churches and the church leaders of that community is a pre-requisite. Through

the Transformation Movement Churches are regularly called upon for inter-church prayer

meetings and evangelistic actions in our cities and towns.

Ministers and pastors who are leading these actions constantly talk about unity churches must

unite; the body of Christ is divided and must come to unity if it is to be effective in reaching the

world for Christ. The call is, “We all believe in Jesus, let’s put aside our dogmatic differences, and

reach out together with the Gospel.” v

On the surface this may seem the Christian thing to do, in the light of the desperate need to

evangelize the world around us. But when the very essentials of the Gospel and the Christian faith

are compromised for the sake of unity, it needs to concern us and make us sit up and take note!

Tal Brooke makes it plain that “… to change the faith for the sake of unity … is to compromise

truth … and once changed, faith is destroyed” vi

TRANSFORMATION MOVEMENT

Biblical truth about the nature of God and the atonement of Christ are some of the essentials that

are compromised when participating in the Transformations movement.

The unity being propagated by George Otis Junior and his Sentinel Group is a unity based, not on

the doctrinal purity of God’s Word, but on the common goal for community transformation,

irrespective of doctrine and belief. Before he founded the Sentinel Group in 1980, Otis worked

with the Luzanne Committee for World Evangelization which was launched in the early 1970s by

Billy Graham. Not only do they include Roman Catholics who pray to Mary as Mediatrix (taking

the place of Christ as our only Mediator) as well as to dead saints, believing that the Roman

Catholic priest has the power to literally change the wafer bread and the wine into the actual body

and blood of Christ in the unbiblical mass, that the Bible is not a sufficient rule of faith but that

spiritual truth is also contained in tradition, that the pope is infallible and is God’s representative

on earth (the Holy Spirit is God’s representative on earth – John 14:16 - 18), etc. – but also see

those of other faiths as members of the Body of Christ.

In an interview with Billy Graham, who is a leader in the Lausanne Movement, by Robert Schuller

on May 31, 1997, Billy Graham said:vii “That’s what God is doing today, He’s calling people out

of the world for His name, whether they come from the Buddhist world, or the Christian world, or

the non-believing world, they are members of the Body of Christ because they’ve been called by

God. They may not even know the Name of Jesus, but they know in their hearts that they need

something that they don’t have, and they turn to the only light that they have, and I think that they

are saved, and that they are going to be with us in heaven.” viii

PARABLE OF THE SOWER

Sadly God’s people love to hear false prophecy. God says that there will be a time of judgment

that actually starts in His House…

LISTENING TO FALSE PROPHETS

“The prophets prophesy falsely, and the priests bear rule by their hands; and My people love it so. And what will you do at the end of it?” (Jer. 5:31).

” For the time is come for judgment to begin at the house of God: and if it begin first at us, what

shall be the end of them that obey not the gospel of God?” (1Pet. 4:17). 2Mercy unto you, and

peace, and love, be multiplied. 3Beloved, when I gave all diligence to write unto you of the

common salvation, it was needful for me to write unto you, and exhort you that ye should

earnestly contend for the faith which was once delivered unto the saints. 4For there are

certain men crept in unawares, who were before of old ordained to this condemnation,

ungodly men, turning the grace of our God into lasciviousness, and denying the only Lord

God, and our Lord Jesus Christ.” Jude 1:2-4(KJV)

“For what have I to do with judging outsiders? Is it not those inside the church whom you

are to judge?” (1Cor 5:12).

What you don’t know might just destroy you.

Mark 4:13 - Do you not understand this parable? How will

you understand all the parables?

Jesus spoke these words to His followers’ right after

speaking the Parable of the Sower, also known as the

Parable of the Word to the great crowds and multitudes of

people. There is a profound message in this parable that is

written in simple metaphoric language. If you don’t truly

understand the Parable of the Sower, Jesus said you will

not be able to understand all the other parables that are in

the Holy Scriptures. So my friends, it is terribly important

therefore that this parable be understood in its fullest

meaning. The church today by and large does not

understand this parable and they are blind as bats to the

rest of them also. The deceived fallen away church does

not know the living God. They are ever learning but never

able to come to knowledge of the truth.

TABOO TOPIC

What this parable is really about is something the fallen church does not want to talk

about. It is a taboo topic and you will know why at the end of this post. The key takeaways of

this parable are all about our enemy, the powers of darkness and how they would wage war

against the brethren to steal and pervert the WORD of God from our hearts. The powers

of darkness have been astonishingly successful in keeping the people of God with

hardened hearts and filled with spiritual blindness. Perhaps some escaping to the true light

will read this and know they

are on the right path out of

Babylon and onto the narrow

Highway of Holiness. I pray

your eyes will be opened. If a

Christian lets the powers of

darkness steal the WORD out of

their heart, they will have no

light and will not know the way

that leads to righteousness.

JESUS IS IN COVENANT WITH BELIEVERS

Psalm 119 - Your word is a lamp to my feet And a light to my path

This parable and the interpretation Jesus gave privately to His followers is provided below. Please

realize that Jesus gave the understanding ONLY to His followers, the multitudes did not get

the understanding. It works the same way today. If you love God with all your heart, He will

reveal the Scriptures to you. If you walk in rebellion to God and His covenant, you will not

understand and you will not be given eyes to see or ears to hear.

Mark 4:10-12 As soon as He was alone, His followers, along with the twelve, began asking Him

about the parables. 11And He was saying to them, “To you has been given the mystery of the

kingdom of God, but those who are outside get everything in parables (and will be BLIND) …

You see, only God’s Disciples that are IN COVENANT with Him will be given the mysteries

of the Kingdom. Everyone else is on the outside. Jesus continued……

SO THAT WHILE SEEING, THEY MAY SEE AND NOT PERCEIVE, AND WHILE

HEARING, THEY MAY HEAR AND NOT UNDERSTAND, OTHERWISE THEY MIGHT

RETURN AND BE FORGIVEN.

Now maybe one can truly grasp the importance of knowing Christ, hearing His voice and

truly being Born Again of a repentant heart. When the church focuses on Bible Studies,

buildings and boasts in membership counts and sows a corrupted seed that cuts out us having

to go to the cross with Jesus — true disciples are not made and there will be NO

UNDERSTANDING of the mysteries and truth of God’s Word.

Mark 4:4 – “Listen to this! Behold, the sower went out to sow; 4as he was sowing, some seed

fell beside the road, and the birds came and ate it up.

The WORD is sown to those standing near the road (v14), this road being the Highway to

Holiness. The WORD leads the people of God to get onto this road, the lies will lead you

away. The cross is the way. When the people hear this WORD, Satan IMMEDIATELY comes

and takes the WORD away that has been sown into the hearts of the people. It hasn’t changed!

Mark 4:15 - These are the ones who are beside the road where the word is sown; and when they

hear, immediately Satan comes and takes away the word which has been sown in them

So we see here, the birds are the powers of darkness which encompasses Satan and his demons; a

mighty army that accomplishes the purposes of the Lord Jesus Christ. The congregations in the

Babylon churches are famished. The WORD that feeds their souls has been stolen and instead

they are fed bad bread that points them to a false Jesus which is really the image of the beast. There

is great spiritual famine in the land in these last days. The seed of truth is being stolen.

Mark 4:5-6 Other seed fell on the rocky ground where it did not have much soil; and

immediately it sprang up because it had no depth of soil. And after the sun had risen, it was

scorched; and because it had no root, it withered away.

Other people receive the WORD but have not firm root in

their heart. They have not really turned to the Lord, they

wanted to simply add Jesus and stay in the world. Their

hearts remain rocky and hardened. When the trials and

tribulations come, they resort to their flesh and do not trust

in the Lord. Their faith is phony.

Mark 4:16-17 - In a similar way these are the ones on whom

seed was sown on the rocky places, who, when they hear

the word, immediately receive it with joy; 17and they have

no firm root in themselves, but are only temporary; then,

when affliction or persecution arises because of the word,

immediately they fall away.

Here we see two of Satan’s schemes to bring the furnace of

fire (testing and heat) to God’s people to steal the WORD

out of their heart. The Powers of Darkness bring affliction

(sickness, disease) and persecution (mocking, scoffing, and

ridicule). These trials foster unbelief in the hearts of professing Christians who deep down doubt

God and His promises to heal them and protect them. They do not understand the war they are

in and are easily deceived and shaken off the Rock Eternal. Without a firm root, when these trials

come, people will shrink back from the WORD and will ultimately be destroyed by the enemy,

unless they repent with their whole heart.

Hebrews 10:38 - BUT MY RIGHTEOUS ONE SHALL LIVE BY FAITH; AND IF HE

SHRINKS BACK, MY SOUL HAS NO PLEASURE IN HIM

Luke’s version of this Parable says those with the rocky hearts “believe for a while, and in time

of temptation fall away”. There is no Once Saved Always Saved, we must endure all the way

to end, and otherwise you will shrink back and …

BE DESTROYED BY THE DESTROYERS.

Mark 4:7 – Other seed fell among the thorns, and the thorns came up and choked it, and it

yielded no crop.

Other people receive the WORD but then like Lot’s wife, they turn their hearts back into the

world. They worry about the same things the world worries about, they are deceived by a lust for

money and they are consumed with covetousness. Like the Israelites in the wilderness, they want

to return to Egypt in their hearts.

Mark 4:18-19 - And others are the ones on whom seed was

sown among the thorns; these are the ones who have heard the

word, 9but the worries of the world, and the deceitfulness of

riches, and the desires for other things enter in and choke the

word, and it becomes unfruitful

So here are three more of Satan’s schemes to add to the

prior two. If anyone turns their hearts to pursue these worldly

and fleshly lusts, they become an enemy of the Lord. God

will send His chosen instruments of righteous judgment, the

powers of darkness, to bring judgment and turn the hearts of

the people back to Him. That is the god kind of love that those

in Babylon cannot comprehend. Yet the church teaches lies

such as OSAS that keeps the people in ignorance and in

bondage to the enemy.

James 4:4 - do you not know that friendship with the world

is hostility toward God? Therefore whoever wishes to be a

friend of the world makes himself an enemy of God

The WORD of GOD can only take root and bear fruit where there is good soil that has been

properly prepared. Our hearts are the land spoken of in Scripture. Good soil is fertile, it is fallow

land, it has been tilled and the rocks removed by true sincere repentance. If one does not repent,

their hearts remain hardened and as we saw above, the WORD will not take root and be able to

stand the trials and tribulations brought by the powers of darkness. But of course true repentance

and the fleshly suffering that will result are not taught in Babylon.

Mark 4:8 – Other seeds fell into the good soil, and as they grew up and increased, they

yielded a crop and produced thirty, sixty, and a hundredfold.”

When we get this WORD into our hearts of fertile soil, we will yield a good and bountiful crop.

The WORD of God will not fail. The fruits will be evident and the true brethren will be

multiplied by sowing good seed in turn into the world and where God has prepared someone’s

heart, they will receive this WORD and Jesus will give the increase and build His Church just the

way He said He would. That is true discipleship as workers in God’s field. The parable ends

with a warning and a consequence about what we do with this WORD that has been sown into our

hearts.

Mark 4:24-25 Take care what you listen to.

By your standard of measure it will be

measured to you; and more will be given you

besides. 25“For whoever has, to him more

shall be given; and whoever does not have,

even what he has shall be taken away from

him.”

The real underlying message of this parable is

the workings of our enemy that comes to kill,

steal and destroy the WORD of God and our

souls. This enemy has kept the professing

church “in the world” and not set apart as a

peculiar people. The enemy lies coming from

most pulpits say we can serve two masters

and don’t need to go to the cross and DIE. The

devil has stolen and perverted the truth. Many

souls have perished and God’s people continue

to be destroyed. I pray more of you will wake

up to this great apostasy and repent and go tell

your neighbors. The teachers in Babylon are

feeding off the sin of the people. They are doing violence to the truth and replacing the good seed

of God with a seed from their master the powers of darkness.

Hosea 4:6 - My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge because you have rejected

knowledge. There is no fear of God in the land!

I hope it is becoming obvious to those with eyes to see and ears to hear that the reason the Babylon

Churches don’t teach about what this parable is really speaking about is because these very

churches are infested with demons and controlled by the powers of darkness. Yes, that is

right I am sorry to say, but God said it. The angel cries out with a mighty voice …..

Revelation 18:2 – Fallen, fallen is Babylon the great! She has become a dwelling place of

demons and a prison of every unclean spirit, and a prison of every unclean and hateful bird

These are the same birds spoken about in the Parable of the Sower that come and eat up the true

WORD that is sown. The thief has come to kill, steal and destroy the WORD OF GOD and has

done it right under the nose of the church.

This is the war that has raged in the background that most professing Christians have zero

awareness about and have not been taught how to fight. They have not put on the Lord Jesus

Christ with HIS WEAPONS and outside of saying some words with their lips, have not the power

of the Holy Spirit working in them to fight this battle. They have been overcome by deceit and

the God Sent deluding influence of the demons that have captured their hearts with a false gospel

and the traditions of men. Oh how great the apostasy.

2 Thessalonians 2:11-12 For this reason God will send upon them a deluding influence so that

they will believe what is false, 12in order that they all may be judged who did not believe the truth,

but took pleasure in wickedness

WAKE UP MY BROTHERS & SISTERS.

UNDERSTAND THIS PARABLE SO YOU CAN UNDERSTAND THE REST OF THEM.

The spirit of the Satan is working in the sons of disobedience today yet the church does not even

acknowledge the basic tenants of this most important parable. They have no eyes to see it. I have

spoken the truth of God’s WORD in this post. If you are offended by this truth, I ask that you

prayerfully consider what spirit is arousing your offense? I say this out of love because all of us

have been there my friend at one time. But then the Lord in His mercy and grace came and opened

our eyes. He chooses us and has called us for His purposes. Jesus can set you free from the birds

and get the seed planted deep into your heart. But you must seek deliverance from a problem that

you need to admit is a problem. Cry out to Him in repentance and you shall be delivered. I hope

you are beginning to understand some things. You do not want to be in the majority crowd of

“Many” that Jesus said would not have a clue and would become victims.

Matthew 24:39 - and they did not understand until the flood came and took them all away; so

will the coming of the Son of Man be

And we are not to judge outsiders but those inside the Church are to be judged…
