The Bible verse says "Freely you have received, freely give" is found in Matthew 10:8. Jesus uses these words to instruct his disciples on how to share the gospel and the blessings they have received. It emphasizes that the gifts of grace, love, and healing, among others, are freely given by God and should be freely shared with others. But today money is ruling the denominations whatever they do is for money. Today the churches are destroyed because of their greed for money and luxury.
They feel God is happy with all their actions.
God will not act according to your will but you have to come under the will of God completely to do things pleasing for God. Otherwise you are working for God's enemy.
You can't serve both God and mammon (money God)
Think of a small group which is coming together for the sake of edifying one another in the word of God but today we have huge building and business centres which trade centres doing business in lacks and cores totally in the control of mammon.
A man can not serve God as He pleases. We have to do what pleases God. The Roman Catholics mock the World of God. Their service for “god” is based on falsehood, being deceived by their priests and bishops. This us why they have lost the true Gospel of Jesus Christ. They have many money making Organisations to serve their purpose rather than to edify the believers and come together to worship idols and do false unbiblical rituals. Today most of the so called churches follow almost the same pattern of mammon worship.
Then there are so called prosperity preachers pentecostals and evangelicals who twist Word for their greed and mock the scriptures according to their own whims and fancies.
What does God say about them?;
The phrase "My people, flee from her" is found in several Bible verses, primarily referring to leaving Babylon or other places of spiritual and moral corruption. Jeremiah 51:45 and Revelation 18:4 are two key examples where God instructs his people to depart from Babylon to avoid its judgment and plagues. 2 Corinthians 6:17 also echoes this sentiment, urging believers to separate themselves from the ungodly.
Here's a breakdown of the context and related verses:
Jeremiah 51:45:
"Go forth from her midst, my people! And let every man save his life from the fierce anger of the LORD." This verse is a direct command for God's people to escape Babylon, a symbol of worldly power and sin, to avoid the consequences of its impending destruction.
Revelation 18:4:
"Then I heard another voice from heaven saying, 'Come out of her, my people, so that you will not share in her sins, neither will you receive of her plagues.'" This verse in Revelation expands on the theme of escaping Babylon, emphasizing the spiritual danger of remaining connected to a system that is opposed to God.
2 Corinthians 6:17:
"Therefore, 'Come out from them and be separate, says the Lord. Touch no unclean thing, and I will receive you.'" This verse, while not explicitly mentioning Babylon, extends the principle of separation to all believers, urging them to distance themselves from anything that is spiritually impure.
Isaiah 52:11:
"Depart, depart, go out from there! Touch no unclean thing; go out from the midst of her; purify yourselves, you who bear the vessels of the LORD." This verse, similar to Jeremiah, calls for separation from the ungodly and purification.
What can we do?
Ephesians 5:11
Have nothing to do with the fruitless deeds of darkness, but rather expose them.
Catholics who have been converted into Christianity, have most likely encountered people who have told them the truth, and challenged them to read the Bible. When you read the Bible you have no longer any excuse for doing what God hates. prosperity Gospel preachers are also popular like the Catholics who are against reading Bible but misquote the Bible for mammon.
Prosperity Gospel, Word of Faith heretic Benny Hinn of the Trinity Broadcast Network, who has made hundreds of millions of dollars over the years spreading his false gospel, is now pleading with his followers to send him $2.5M over a 90-day period in order to rescue his ministry from debt. In return for giving him money, Hinn promises his followers a “double return on investment” for every dollar they spend. This is yet another example of the shameless scams and manipulation by false teachers in the Christian church who use the love of money to lure unwitting believers into trying to use money to “buy favor and blessings” from God. Not only is this teaching not in the Bible, it goes against the true Gospel and is in fact a part of the apostasy – the end times falling away of much of the Christian church away from biblical Christianity and into false doctrine and satanic worship.
They are:-
1. False teachers are proud. They are concerned for their own popularity. They are concerned for their own fame. They are concerned for their own notoriety. They are concerned for their own prestige. They’re concerned to see themselves and hear themselves in the public eye. They want large crowds, as it were, to bow down in great homage to them. They’re characterized by pride and they will do anything to gain the ground they need to gain for the welfare of their own personal ego, including any amount of compromise necessary.
2. Secondly, false teachers are characterized by selfishness. They tend to be self-centered. They are concerned for their own comfort. They are concerned for their own popularity. They are concerned for their own prosperity. In the end, it’s all about money, fame, and prestige and notoriety equals an increased bank account. They are in it for the money and the personal material benefits that they can gain as they endeavor to feed their selfish desires.
3. Thirdly, They are characterized by deception. They usually can weave a very sophisticated web of deception in their teaching because they tend to be articulate, if they’re going to be successful, and they endeavor to engage other people to aid them in their deceitful enterprise which gives it the, sort of, faรงade of credibility
4. They’re not only proud and selfish and deceptive, but [fourthly] they’re irreverent. If there’s anything that sort of dominates in my thinking about false teachers, it is their irreverence. They have absolutely no regard for God. The fact that they would go against God, that they would elevate themselves the way they do, that they would pervert the truth indicates their utter irreverence. They have little, if any, regard for God, His Word, His truth, His glory, His honor…
5. Finally, they are spiritually destructive. They seek to use people; they seek to abuse people. They seek to lead people into error, which destroys them—into sin, which pollutes them.
So, as you look at false teachers with regard to the world, they are proud and they seek fame and popularity. With regard to themselves, they are self-centered, selfish, self-aggrandizing, self-gratifying. With regard to the nature of their ministry, they are dishonest and deceptive and lack integrity. With regard to God, they are utterly irreverent; in fact, they are blasphemous. And, with regard to the people that they influence, they are spiritually destructive. So, their relationship to the world, their relationship to the ministry, their relationship to themselves, their relationship to God, their relationship to their people all reflects the deviation of their hearts. John F. MacArthur Jr., Concerns of a True Pastor: Humility and Selflessness, 1998
Today's preachers along with some who have passed on whose ministry or teachings continue, who are either teaching a false doctrine or are using the Doctrine of our Lord Jesus Christ for the benefit of their own selfishness and gain. Some of these preachers lay claim that Jesus is the only way to Heaven (and they would be right), but at the same time, they preach that personal gain is the main message.
Beware of these false preachers - they are the representatives of Mammon - the symbol of anti-christ. If we do not flee from this Babylon-:the Babel they were are falling into a big trap of Satan. Please read the scriptures and be aware about the sickness of what Satan id doing today through all these false denominations
