A secret that satan does not want us to know

A secret that satan does not want us to know
SonLight Pastor's Thoughts for September 2001

Satan, with earthly demonic wisdom, uses religious churches to further his kingdom. These religious churches teach one line, one depth, so-called Christianity. They have a fifteen minute teaching on the same things week after week, year after year. These churches do not live by every word of God, but have their own private interpretations. They are no longer pure, but are now mixed with opinions other than Biblical principles of fact.

We have not said that these people are unsaved. We have said they do not live by every word of God; for God knows truly who is or who is not saved and born - again.

Please let us give you an example:
Some say you can lose your salvation if you do this or if you do that. The Biblical truth is, you can not lose the gift of salvation.

John 10:28-29 "And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand. My Father, which gave them me, is greater than all; and no man is able to pluck them out of my Father's hand."

"My Father, which gave them Me", as a permanent gift for ever is the meaning of these Biblical words.

We are not trying to do anything else except expose satan's work in the light of truth. Remember, we started out by saying opinions that have now become religious church's doctrines.

1 Peter 5:8 "Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour"

Good meaning people go about casting out demons; but somehow these demons keep coming back, or still worse, are transferred to innocent parties unawares. These demons can attach themselves to whole congregations because the whole word of God is not being preached.

Example: A woman with a lust problem comes many years, and during different times they cast out her demons with some kind of success (they think); but all the time the woman has never been truly freed of the demonic possession. In the meantime the congregation has been influenced by the spirit of lust, causing many problems that go undetected.

These demons that were supposed to be cast out are now looking for a new place to abide. The young child that has no protection comes to church, and because that church does not live by every word of God and does not teach all the doctrines of the Bible, this child is now subjected to these demons unawares. This also goes for the so-called Christian in the congregation that has not hid every word of God in their heart.

Time goes on, the children grow up and their lives are a mess. They live uninterested in the word of God and sin is part of their lives. Sexual sins are very much a part of their lives. Good Christian parents are torn apart thinking they went wrong. Good loving Christians are victims of satan's hand as they now also live in sinful habits.

This kind of satanic activity is going on in many local churches today undetected.

Matthew 7:22-23 "Many will say to Me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works?
And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from Me, ye that work iniquity."

Please be very careful that we do not judge others; for this is not written to hurt, but to help others to be aware of satanic influences that can happen when the congregation is not living by every word of God.

The Word will remove demons from the possessed, the lunatics.
Preaching the gospel is the answer Matthew 4:23-24
It's the Word being preached is what will deliver a sin sick soul!!!
It's the Word that we are to live by.

Matthew 4:4b "By every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God."

Satan's attacks go on and on over the years; all because churches do not live by every word of God. The Christians do not study as they should, nor do they want a pastor teacher to head the Church and to be their spiritual leader as they sit under them to learn of Christ Jesus.

Satan gives these churches that will not live by every word of God a superior attitude of pride that leaves them thinking they are much more spiritual than other churches in their city. Satan also makes sure these churches are successful.

Matthew 4:9b "All these things will I give thee, if thou wilt fall down and worship me."

This is what happens to churches that do not live by every word of God doctrinally. They will become satan's voice as they now preach another Jesus, because of just one evil spirit of lust that entered into the congregation unawares many years ago. This spirit goes about infecting many others for periods of years. The result is that many of the untrained Christians are now living in habitual sins causing hurt and despair. No one knows why they now have left the church. Sadly but true this is happening all over this country, day after day, when churches allow opinions and humanism to reign instead of the Word of God.

Preaching the Word of God by doctrines will cast out all demons in the church.

James 4:7-8a "Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you. Draw nigh to God, and He will draw nigh to you."

Jesus Christ spoke the Word! So we now preach the word of God.

We hope this has helped, but if not, maybe you are one of the spokesmen that voices satan's aim to destroy instead of build up the Body of Christ.
In Christ Jesus love,
Pastor Curt

Bible References (KJV)

Matthew 4:23-24 "And Jesus went about all Galilee, teaching in their synagogues, and preaching the gospel of the kingdom, and healing all manner of sickness and all manner of disease among the people. And his fame went throughout all Syria: and they brought unto him all sick people that were taken with diverse diseases and torments, and those which were possessed with devils, and those which were lunatic, and those that had the palsy; and he healed them."
