Drive Away the Apostates with Truth

I had a friend of my daughter pursuing me to chastise me for some of my posts claiming they were wrong. I gave her lots of scripture to prove my points and she came back to me to say that I was stubborn and rebellious for not believing her. This woman has been in sin a long time, attending an apostate church that celebrates Halloween, prays to the dead and allows shack ups in their gatherings without discipline. But I am rebellious? She also throws in the "don't judge" and for good measure "we are under the blood, so sin is not a problem."

You see why we have a problem in our culture, more of the Bible is being violated than obeyed. Attacking born again believers is acceptable to these apostate types. And, to top it all off they throw up to you all the people you know who are their friends. As though their plan is to gossip against us turning our acquaintances against us.

Notice one thing, they cannot be satisfied attacking us they must get others to attack us too.

I laugh at this because it is not only childish they don't understand that none of their mean spirited attacks or threats of turning others against us will change what we believe. It will only serve to help us know who are really with us and who are not. This helps us as it weeds out those who are superficial and arrogant friends.

Those who come against us don't understand that we don't need people, we love those who are with us and believe what we believe, but we have no need of lots of friends around us to validate us. We have Christ, He is all we need and then He brings those to come along side that can encourage us in His ways as we also encourage them.

Those who preach a false gospel ought to hate our presence and eventually become born again or go away, that's up to God.

Justifying sin because of grace is sin, devilish and a false gospel.

Trudi Gretsinger said the following:

Have you my friends died to sins and now living for righteousness?

When they hurled their insults at Him, He did not retaliate; when He suffered, He made no threats. Instead, He entrusted Himself to Him who judges justly.


He Himself bore our sins in His body on the tree, so that we might die to sins and live for righteousness; by His wounds you have been healed.

For you were like sheep going astray, but now you have returned to the Shepherd and Overseer of your souls.......
