Truth is not negotiable! Why do so many people want to deny, flex, and distort truth to fit into their space? Is it because they have not bothered to seek God?
In these 23 years of hearing God’s voice daily, I’m very familiar with how He speaks to me. He sends me to expose false doctrine. Depending on the heart of the hearer, He will navigate their sensitivities either more gently or more sternly. If their heart is more open to sincere critique or correction, then He sends me to point out the needed changes to doctrine. It’s only when they’re too wound up in their own ego, that God delivers words harshly and disciplines quickly. Maybe the only way they can engage is when their ego is on the line.
Truth is not negotiable! God can deliver truth anyway and through anyone He chooses. It was the religious Pharisees (or church leaders) who hated truth the most, enough to have Him crucified. Please don’t think that just because a person stands behind a podium at a church that they’re ordained by God to deliver truth. Maybe they just haven’t been confronted enough to stop resisting truth. Maybe I’m one that God has ordained to confront them. (Hint: Ask Him!)
Please child, stop getting in God’s way when He wants false doctrine eradicated from the church. Maybe keep your mouth and keyboard out of the mix AND GO TO GOD and ask Him what He wants before you shoot the messenger. If you want to defend your pastor’s false teaching, then go to God directly. Tell God how great the false teaching is to you. Then you won’t have to deal with me at all. God will enforce truth in any way that He chooses. Maybe He needs to take you out of the mix so that your pastor has less ego-boost so that he can finally hear the changes needed. Could you be the problem? Hmm? That’s an interesting thought. Ask God!
