Listen Only to the Holy Spirit

There are those who arrogantly think they have more wisdom and knowledge simply because they attended a Bible college. Sadly their arrogance and need to be elevated in the eyes of others is evidence that wisdom does not come from "education", but from humble submission to the Holy Spirit.

Those that consider themselves wiser or smarter because of their education, need to repent, until they do they will remain spiritual babies until they do so.

Those who elevate themselves prey on the weak and immature to maintain their self exalted superiority. This is sin, it will keep a believer from growing in wisdom and may even be evidence that the person who acts in such ways may not have ever been born again.

Counterfeiters are always arrogant, self righteous and ragers when they cannot convince someone else to elevate them .

Jeremiah 23:16
"Thus says the LORD of hosts, "Do not listen to the words of the prophets who are prophesying to you. They are leading you into futility; They speak a vision of their own imagination, Not from the mouth of the LORD."

Why do I write so many warnings and seemingly unpleasant things? The answer is simple, there are more false believers than ever before right now in these last days, they will have a form of religion but demonstrate by their arrogance that they do not know Christ.

2 Timothy 3:1-5 "3 But realize this, that in the last days difficult times will come. 2 For men will be lovers of self, lovers of money, boastful, arrogant, revilers, disobedient to parents, ungrateful, unholy, 3 unloving, irreconcilable, malicious gossips, without self-control, brutal, [a]haters of good, 4 treacherous, reckless, conceited, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God, 5 holding to a form of [b]godliness, although they have denied its power; Avoid such men as these."

Do not be intimidated by these people, continue that which God has called you to and refuse to listen to the mocking of these self righteous types, they are self deceived and ignorant.
