| The Pastors Corner: Beware of False Teachers. Matthew 7:15 - 16 "Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves. (16.) Ye shall know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles?"
A false teacher would be anyone who teaches contrary to Gods doctrine. A Christian must beware of preachers who want to change the scriptures into a lie and force them to say opposite to what they really mean to say. The devil is a liar and not just a liar but the father of lies. God says these men are liars like their father the devil; John 8:44 “Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it.” These men are like their father they come as an angel of light, they will look and sound like they are believers, they will teach from the bible, they will have their scriptures, and they will be very likeable and even seem to be very lovable, but beware because beneath their outward beauty they are raven wolves who will steal your mind and heart. 2 Corinthians 11:14 - 15 "And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light.(15.) Therefore it is no great thing if his ministers also be transformed as the ministers of righteousness; whose end shall be according to their works." They will go to the ends of this earth to convince you that they are Gods men and bring Gods doctrine when all they truly bring is destruction your way. They will teach about a universal invisible church which cannot fit to the church in the scriptures, they will teach about a salvation outside of Jesus Christ (works, baptism, church membership, and etc.), they will teach about a god that cannot do anything with your soul without your consent. These men are dangerous and will still you away from serving our Sovereign God. They will lead you down a path of separation rather than a path of righteousness. They will have plenty of help thru much support, they will be supported with money (big buildings, gyms, programs, and etc.), they will afford the big nice web sites, and they will also be supported by others who agree with them like conventions, associations, and maybe even nations. They will be on television, radio, and even in print. They will come as what you are i.e. a church for bikers, a church for cowboys, a church for gays, or etc. They will come as very loving and caring open door and freewill will be their theme; “come as you are and it is fine with us but just come” will be what they preach. They will mock the Baptist and will make fun of what they believe and teach, they will tell you that the Baptist are hate mongers, that they make salvation to easy, and that their unloving and uncaring. Folks, behind the mask, behind the lies, and behind the good looking things are nothing but evil and destruction. They will take your children and turn their minds into mush; they will cause you to believe lies instead of truth and will cause you to falsely worship a false God. This (while they mean well or not) is the plan of Satan and they are executing it step by step. God says to beware of them because they are on every street corner. The Lord promised that they would “…come to you in sheep's clothing…” looking like men of God “…but inwardly they are ravening wolves…” just simply remove the mask and you will see an ugly devil. God promised that “Ye shall know them by their fruits…” because they are not true Christians however they have deceived enough Christians into following them it is hard some times to tell who is whom, but if you look to the leader, the teacher, you will see the true devil behind it all and His or her true identity will be revealed. Revelation 12:9 “And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him.” Please be warned.

| The secret of being content: "Godliness with contentment is great gain!" 1 Timothy 6:6
August 17, 1776 My dear friend, It befits every Christian to say—It is not necessary for me to be rich—or what the world accounts wise. It is not necessary for me to be healthy—or admired by my fellow-worms. It is not necessary for me to pass through life in a state of prosperity and outward comfort. These things may be, or they may not be—as the Lord in His wisdom shall appoint them for me.
But it is necessary for me to be humble and spiritual, to seek communion with God, to adorn my profession of the Gospel, and to yield submissively to His disposal, in whatever way, whether of service or suffering—that He shall be pleased to call me to glorify Him in this world. It is not necessary for me to live long—but highly expedient that while I do live—I should live unto Him! Here then, I would bound my desires; and here, having His Word for my rule, I am secured from asking amiss. Let me have His presence, wisdom to know my calling, and opportunities and faithfulness to improve them; and as to the rest, Lord, help me to sincerely pray, Whatever You will, whenever You will, and however You will.
"I have learned to be content whatever the circumstances. I know what it is to be in need, and I know what it is to have plenty. I have learned the secret of being content in any and every situation, whether well fed or hungry, whether living in plenty or in want!" Philippians 4:11-12
