Although the law
itself cannot disannul
the promise.(the
promise being Christ in
you), but if one follows the law,
then in him Christ becomes ineffective:.Galatians
3:17,19 "And this I say, that the covenant, that was confirmed before
of God in Christ, the law, which was four hundred and thirty years after,
cannot disannul, that it should make the promise of none effect...Wherefore.(or,
where therefore is the reason).then
serve the law? It was added because of transgressions.(and
transgressions no longer apply to us),
till the seed should come to whom the
promise was made. And it was ordained
by angels in the hand of a mediator."
Romans
4:14 "For if they which
are of the law be heirs, faith is made void and the promise made of
none effect."
Those teaching ways leading
others astray
are enemies of the cross of Emmanuel
the Christ:.Philippians
3:18 "For many walk, of whom I have told you often and now tell you
even weeping, that they are the enemies of the cross of Christ.".The
cross was freedom, a crossing over from the prison
of the ego to the
high consciousness of Christ.
How was the cross freedom?.Romans
6th chapter.
This 'new' gospel was a
perversion
of the
gospel they had known as new freely forgiven people.Galatians
1:6,7 "I marvel that you 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."
They were being bewitched.(tricked
into being controlled). Being bewitched
is being under a spell,
as in a non thinking trance
where one
assumes
things to be true.(such
as evolution,
being the answer to the question of the beginning of living organisms),
mostly by hearsay
and that of societal
programming and begins to believe something alternate to the true reality
of existence and original principles that produced, as in the
early church, such great enthusiasm, as Paul says here:.Galatians
3:1 "O foolish Galatians, who has bewitched you.(who
had led your minds into a gospel perversion),
that you should not obey the truth, before whose eyes Emmanuel the Christ
has been evidently set forth, crucified among you?".Proverbs
28:10 "Whoso causes the righteous to go astray in an evil way, he shall
fall himself into his own pit, but the upright have good things in possession.(a
good inheritance:.1Corinthians
2:9)."
So they must realize what
they already have as being precious and hang onto it, not allowing
others with their stupid philosophies
to entice them
into something else which could lead them back under the cloud of unrighteous
living that they came out of.
Those Christians back then
in Galatia were being led away from the liberty they had first believed
they were in:.Galatians
5:13 "For, brethren, you have been called unto liberty. Only use not
liberty for an occasion to the flesh, but by love serve.(original
for word 'serve' is, 'be a slave to').one
another." 2Corinthians 3:17
"Now the Lord is that Spirit and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there
is liberty."
This particular.alternate.gospel
was causing some dissension
among them. No doubt some were against it and some were accepting it:.Galatians
5:15 "But if you bite and devour one another, take heed
that you be not consumed one of another."
Paul cautions them about
this other gospel telling them to be alert for doctrines
of demons:.Galatians
1:8,9 "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 before, so say
I now again, If any man preach any other gospel unto you than that you
have received, let him be accursed."
Paul reaffirms to them that
he received directly from Christ, the gospel that he had taught them:.Galatians
1:11,12 "But I certify to you, brethren, that the gospel which was
preached of me is not after man. For I
neither received it of man, neither was I taught it, but by the
revelation of Emmanuel the
Christ."
1Timothy
4:1,2 "Now the Spirit speaks expressly, that in the latter times some
shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing
spirits and doctrines of devils, speaking lies in hypocrisy,
having their conscience
seared with a hot iron." Titus 1:15
"Unto the pure all things are pure, but unto them that are defiled and
unbelieving is nothing pure, but even their mind and conscience is defiled."
A seared conscience is one
that is
stubbornly
and angrily
closed-minded
toward opinions which vary
from its mind's set. One as such has ostracized
information to
the contrary of his own set of opinions or rules. As Madonna says in
her song Frozen."Your
frozen when your heart's not open...".And
that's just where
the devil would like you to
be, the frozen chosen.
The dark side doesn't care what truths you hold as true in your heart,
as long as you don't do anything with them; like prayer,
meditate, serving and helping
others and using the good things of
a high consciousness.
Doctrines of devils or demons
are doctrines
which the ego has adopted, mostly
in ignorance of a
higher way and because of that lack of knowledge and the heart to make
that higher way a part of him or her, humanity obviated
its choice in defaulting
to the collective
consciousness for a way of living and some more so than others. Why?
Quality early parental information.(Proverbs
22:6).would
have made a difference in carrying children
onward in love and protection to the place where they would be
awakened to Christ:.2Corinthians
5:17. Better to be awakened to Christ than awakened to the devil
and evil.
Such doctrines are anti
Christ or against Christ in you.(in
Whom you have everything), against
the things of a higher consciousness and involve teachings which subtly.connote
that, because of 'sin' still in one's life, an individual needs to be established
before the Creator through obedience to a law, rule or commandment.("you've
sinned brother, so just get back to keeping the laws of God you broke and
you'll be forgiven and back in His good graces again and God will then
bless you!", that sort of thing).thus
implanting thoughts which contaminate your belief that you.are.righteous,
holy
and perfect thanks to Emmanuel the Christ alone,
regardless
of sin still being in your life. One contamination some churches today
use is this
one.
