Doctrines of Demons

Matt 16:11-12 NKJV How is it you do not understand that I did not speak to you concerning bread? — but to beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and Sadducees." 12 Then they understood that He did not tell them to beware of the leaven of bread, but of the doctrine of the Pharisees and Sadducees.
1 Tim 4:1-5 NKJV The Great Apostasy - Now the Spirit expressly says that in latter times some will depart from the faith, giving heed to deceiving spirits and doctrines of demons , 2 speaking lies in hypocrisy, having their own conscience seared with a hot iron, 3 forbidding to marry, and commanding to abstain from foods which God created to be received with thanksgiving by those who believe and know the truth. 4 For every creature of God is good, and nothing is to be refused if it is received with thanksgiving; 5 for it is sanctified by the word of God and prayer.
2 Tim 4:3-7 AMP For the time is coming when [people] will not tolerate (endure) sound and wholesome instruction, but, having ears itching [for something pleasing and gratifying], they will gather to themselves one teacher after another to a considerable number, chosen to satisfy their own liking and to foster the errors they hold, 4 And will turn aside from hearing the truth and wander off into myths and man-made fictions. 5 As for you, be calm and cool and steady, accept and suffer unflinchingly every hardship, do the work of an evangelist, fully perform all the duties of your ministry.
6 For I am already about to be sacrificed [my life is about to be poured out as a drink offering]; the time of my [spirit's] release [from the body] is at hand and I will soon go free. 7 I have fought the good (worthy, honorable, and noble) fight, I have finished the race, I have kept (firmly held) the faith.
John 7:16-19 NKJV
16 Jesus answered them and said, "My doctrine is not Mine, but His who sent Me. 17 If anyone wills to do His will, he shall know concerning the doctrine , whether it is from God or whether I speak on My own authority. 18 He who speaks from himself seeks his own glory; but He who seeks the glory of the One who sent Him is true, and no unrighteousness is in Him. 19 Did not Moses give you the law, yet none of you keeps the law? Why do you seek to kill Me?"
“ Have I not told you?” says the Lord, “that those who seek their OWN GLORY are false, and those who seek MY GLORY are true ? This is how you know if someone is speaking from their own heart rather than from MINE. Those who seek glory for themselves by boasting in what they did, or boasting in how God used them, in pride, and not just excitement, are those who want their own kingdom. This is how you will know the true from the false. The fruit of pride is greed, lust, unfaithfulness, unbelief, boasting in never being wrong, arrogance, and all manner of vanity, intolerance for others, impatience with others, yet hoping for the approval of man more than the approval of GOD. Kind seeks after kind. So when men hate you and reprove you when you are walking in light, know that they hated ME, so they will hate you.
Fear and Pride go together like salt and pepper. They season but with a wrong attitude rooted in INSECURITIES.
Beware the leaven of the Pharisees I have told you again and again. They seek a kingdom of their own, and not MY KINGDOM. The pharasaical spirit wants to exalt SELF and to receive praise and admonition from men. It is natural to the human spirit to want companionship and approval of man. But in such as these it has become an IDOL. They cannot find as much pleasure in serving ME as in the accolades of man. This brings compromise, because they will do anything for money.
Remember how my apostles wanted to know who is the greatest among them, and were disgruntled over John and James mother wanting them to be seated at My right hand ? Remember how they wanted to call down fire from heaven ? The love of power is a part of mammon also. It is SELF on the throne of your heart. It is man wanting to be God instead of deferring to God all judgment into His hands.
There is a vast amount of idolatry to SELF in the church in this hour. There are so many UNHEALED from their insecurities, and unappreciated by men and women, never given the love that they needed. This has brought great harm to the body, and just as Jeremiah exclaimed through My Spirit that the fish stinks from the head to the tail, so it can be proclaimed in this hour.
Doctrines of men & demons taught over principles I TAUGHT run rampant in a self seeking and greedy church. But I am NOT POWERLESS TO CHANGE IT.
Remember Who is KING ! REMEMBER WHO IS LORD ! REMEMBER WHO IS ALMIGHTY and FAITHFUL AND TRUE !
I am NOT powerless to change what has been going on. Can you not see that even in the days of My disciples on earth, that I was able to humble men and correct them ? Was I not always able to humble those who thought highly of themselves ? Have I not said that not many mighty are chosen, not many wise ? I use the weak to confound the strong. I use the humble and even the disdained to bring to nought those who are wise in their own opinions. I WILL do it again, and MY BRIDE I WILL KISS, and KISS, and KISS with revelation that she will become what I WANT. I will make up for what the false shepherds have done. I WILL MATURE AND COMPLETE MY WORK IN MY BRIDE ! Those who refuse to bend to My glory will be humbled and some may even die like Ananias and Sapphira. But those who BEND to My will will be changed.
I am NOT a neglectful Father ! I am NOT an unjust KING ! MY SPIRIT WILL BE POURED OUT AGAIN that men may go through the most hideous time on earth ! Do not cleave to the things of this world. Do not cleave to your life, but ABANDON IT ! LAY IT DOWN and ask ME to make you what I WANT. For he who keeps his life will lose it, and he who abandons his life will save it ! The first shall be LAST, and the last shall be FIRST ! I will perfect all who need perfecting by the power of MY Spirit and by the judgments wreaked on the earth.
Remember that man does not live by BREAD ALONE , but by every Word that proceeds from the mouth of GOD ! Let My Word be your bread. Let MY Words I have spoken into your life be your bread. STAND on My logos, and STAND on My Rhema ! My Word does not return VOID ! SPEAK IT OUT ! Use it to preach to the LOST and BROKEN MY LOVE FOR THEM !
Do not be given to vain arguments and the vanity of men’s pride. Do not be hard, but GENTLE WITH ALL MEN.
Phil 4:5 Let your gentleness be known to all men!
In the KJV is says moderation, but below is the Strongs:
NT:1933 epieikes (ep-ee-i-kace'); from NT:1909 and NT:1503; appropriate, i.e. (by implication) mild: KJV - gentle, moderation, patient.
For there is MUCH impatience and intolerance in My own that needs be subdued. You will have PEACE and FORBEARANCE if you ASK FOR IT ! Ask for MY GRACE to be able to forbear with others. For the days coming will try your souls. REMEMBER that I am with you always. There is nothing I don’t see or hear, even your thoughts. Walk in the light as I am in the light.
LET ME HAVE MY WAY WITH YOU BELOVEDS, FOR MY LOVE ENDURES FOREVER ! SUBMIT YOURSELF TO MY WILL IN YOUR LIFE, AND MY MOLDING AND SHAPING. SUBMIT YOURSELF TO MY LOVE AND JOY, MY PEACE AND PROTECTION. I AM YOUR HIGH TOWER, AND I WILL TAKE CARE OF YOU. But you must be WILLING to bend.
I am loosing a REVOLUTION, not just a revival ! I WILL loose MY KINGDOM on the earth, that all men will have no excuse for their disdain of ME ! I will send MY prophets into the church to correct and admonish, to exhort and comfort. But WOE to the ones who will not receive them ! Woe to those who seek to please men but not ME !”
