Hi CF friends,
I recently found this YouTuber and wanted to get your thoughts on his teachings. I am copying and pasting the link to his video and a comment he made on his own video:
Jesus removed the sickness from everyone who came to Him in scripture and I can testify that He still heals since I am someone who can never get sick ever again. So if you are a believer like myself and you are supposedly following Jesus then why are you experiencing sickness in your own life?
If you believe that you are a child of God and that Jesus is the same always, yesterday, today and forever then how come you can still get sick or why do you have a disability in your life? Would you like to know the reason why?
“Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever.”
Hebrews 13:8 NKJV
Well the only reason that you could possibly get sick in this evil fallen world is if you are someone who lacks knowledge of scripture and you have chosen to live a life of sin and ignorance. This means that you have not truly accepted Jesus into your life and you certainly are not following Him as He commanded. It also means that you are not living a holy life as God commanded since you failed to learn how to be born again by overcoming your sin.
“But as He who called you is holy, you also be holy in all your conduct, because it is written, “Be holy, for I am holy.”
I Peter 1:15-16 NKJV
If you are a believer who can get sick then you are simply a misguided soul who was led astray by some false preacher that you chose to follow. You neglected to follow Jesus as He commanded and you did not allow Jesus to be your one and only teacher. Because of this you are now lost and deceived in your beliefs since you closed your eyes and ears to God’s word and truth.
“And in them the prophecy of Isaiah is fulfilled, which says: ‘Hearing you will hear and shall not understand, And seeing you will see and not perceive; For the hearts of this people have grown dull. Their ears are hard of hearing, And their eyes they have closed, Lest they should see with their eyes and hear with their ears, Lest they should understand with their hearts and turn, So that I should heal them.’”
Matthew 13:14-15 NKJV
The majority of believers are actually searching for God in all of the wrong places. They are deceived in their beliefs since they are seeking their knowledge of truth from some misguided mortal preacher at some man made temple, ministry or even on the internet.
Jesus is alive, He has risen from the dead but He does not dwell in some church or through some man made religion. God’s church is not some building where His followers congregate weekly. Church buildings and religions are simply false doctrines that were started by misguided souls who clearly did not understand God and scripture. A temple was where you went to worship God under the Old Covenant but that way of worship is now obsolete and it is gone. This is why any preacher who has a church or a ministry is definitely a false prophet and they will only lead you straight to hell.
“And when you pray, you shall not be like the hypocrites. For they love to pray standing in the synagogues and on the corners of the streets, that they may be seen by men. Assuredly, I say to you, they have their reward. But you, when you pray, go into your room, and when you have shut your door, pray to your Father who is in the secret place; and your Father who sees in secret will reward you openly.”
Matthew 6:5-6 NKJV
God is Spirit and He now dwells inside every believer since our bodies are now the temples of God under the New Covenant and His disciples are His church. His true followers understand how to hear and talk with Jesus in their Spirits and this is why Jesus is their one and only teacher. Any disciple of Jesus can learn scripture and truth directly from Him since they understand how to communicate with Jesus in their thoughts and they allow His Spirit to guide them in their lives.
“My sheep hear My voice, and I know them, and they follow Me.”
John 10:27 NKJV
“God is Spirit, and those who worship Him must worship in spirit and truth.”
John 4:24 NKJV
“But you, do not be called ‘Rabbi’; for One is your Teacher, the Christ, and you are all brethren. Do not call anyone on earth your father; for One is your Father, He who is in heaven. And do not be called teachers; for One is your Teacher, the Christ.”
Matthew 23:8-10 NKJV
“Do you not know that your bodies are temples of the Holy Spirit, who is in you, whom you have received from God?”
1 Corinthians 6:19 NIV
Scripture clearly states that none of God’s children will be taught by their neighbor under God’s New Covenant since we now have the ability to learn scripture directly from Jesus Himself. Under this New Covenant you grow in the knowledge of God by reading scripture alone in your room and by praying for the wisdom to comprehend what you are reading. You ask your questions in your thoughts and you then listen to that internal voice that now dwells inside your head. But where many go astray and become easily deceived is because they cannot discern the voice of God from some demon voice since they do not understand how to test the Spirits as commanded in 1 John 4.
“For if that first covenant had been faultless, then no place would have been sought for a second. Because finding fault with them, He says: “Behold, the days are coming, says the LORD, when I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel and with the house of Judah— not according to the covenant that I made with their fathers in the day when I took them by the hand to lead them out of the land of Egypt; because they did not continue in My covenant, and I disregarded them, says the LORD. For this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days, says the LORD: I will put My laws in their mind and write them on their hearts; and I will be their God, and they shall be My people. None of them shall teach his neighbor, and none his brother, saying, ‘Know the LORD,’ for all shall know Me, from the least of them to the greatest of them. For I will be merciful to their unrighteousness, and their sins and their lawless deeds I will remember no more.” In that He says, “A new covenant,” He has made the first obsolete. Now what is becoming obsolete and growing old is ready to vanish away.”
Hebrews 8:7-13 NKJV
“Beloved, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits, whether they are of God; because many false prophets have gone out into the world. By this you know the Spirit of God: Every spirit that confesses that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is of God, and every spirit that does not confess that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is not of God. And this is the spirit of the Antichrist, which you have heard was coming, and is now already in the world. You are of God, little children, and have overcome them, because He who is in you is greater than he who is in the world. They are of the world. Therefore they speak as of the world, and the world hears them. We are of God. He who knows God hears us; he who is not of God does not hear us. By this we know the spirit of truth and the spirit of error.”
I John 4:1-6 NKJV
Understand that when you are trying to hear the voice of God in your thoughts you are now venturing into the Spirit world where both Godly and demon spirits exist. So it is very important that you understand how to test what you are hearing since this is how many souls become easily deceived. This is the reason why you have millions of false preachers in this evil world since these souls did not understand how to test the Spirits. They simply allowed a demon voice to convince them that they were hearing from God and so the demon enticed them to preach their false and delusional gospel out into the world. In their mind they are definitely believing that they are following God but they are simply living a lie since they did not understand how to test what they were hearing.
So in closing understand that there is no sickness with God, there never was and never will be. And if you are someone who has a sickness or a disability or you are someone who can get sick then you are simply a deceived soul who fell for lies that were fabricated by the devil’s many ministers. You are not following Jesus as He commanded and this is why you have not learned how to become born again and overcome sin. And yes it is definitely sin and sin alone that allows the devil and his sicknesses to enter and destroy our lives.
“We know that anyone born of God does not continue to sin; the One who was born of God keeps them safe, and the evil one cannot harm them.”
1 John 5:18 NIV
“Then they asked him, “Who is the Man who said to you, ‘Take up your bed and walk’?” But the one who was healed did not know who it was, for Jesus had withdrawn, a multitude being in that place. Afterward Jesus found him in the temple, and said to him, “See, you have been made well. Sin no more, lest a worse thing come upon you.”
John 5:12-14 NKJV
He has additional rebuttals in the comments section on this and his other videos. For example, one user said:

He has additional rebuttals in the comments section on this and his other videos. For example, one user said:
so you are saying because 75% of my body is crippled with multiple sicknesses and I have been like this most of my life I do not belong to God?
let me get this right when Jesus said simply believe in me, that was a lie? when he told the man on the cross this day you will be with me in paradise that was a lie
I can go down the list but you know the whole bible. what is required to be a child of Christ according to your teachings? to what i see so far people like my self are already condemned by you
let me get this right when Jesus said simply believe in me, that was a lie? when he told the man on the cross this day you will be with me in paradise that was a lie
I can go down the list but you know the whole bible. what is required to be a child of Christ according to your teachings? to what i see so far people like my self are already condemned by you
To which he replied:
You and many like you do not understand what believing in Jesus actually entails. Most believers think that all they need to do is to say that they believe and that then proves that they are a Christian. These believers have completely ignored the scriptures where God commanded us to overcome and to be Holy or where God stated that He disciplines His true children by testing their faith in order to see if their faith is genuine.
“But as He who called you is holy, you also be holy in all your conduct, because it is written, “Be holy, for I am holy.”
I Peter 1:15-16 NKJV
“Therefore you shall be perfect, just as your Father in heaven is perfect.”
Matthew 5:48 NKJV
“In this you greatly rejoice, though now for a little while, if need be, you have been grieved by various trials, that the genuineness of your faith, being much more precious than gold that perishes, though it is tested by fire, may be found to praise, honor, and glory at the revelation of Jesus Christ,”
I Peter 1:6-7 NKJV
“But someone will say, “You have faith, and I have works.” Show me your faith without your works, and I will show you my faith by my works. You believe that there is one God. You do well. Even the demons believe—and tremble! But do you want to know, O foolish man, that faith without works is dead?”
James 2:18-20 NKJV
“Faith without works is dead” is not saying that you must work to earn your salvation, for no one can earn their salvation since it is a free gift from God. But what it is saying is that you must prove your faith by acting on it and if you do not prove it then you really do not believe. So just saying that you believe means nothing to God since Satan and his demons will even do that! If you really believe then you must prove that you believe. Have you sold everything that you own and given to the poor as Jesus instructed? See Matthew 19:21. Have you forsaken all of your possessions as Jesus requires in order to be a disciple? See Luke 14:33. If you have not done any of these things then you truly do not believe and you are choosing the path to destruction. Abraham believed in God so much that he was willing to kill his son in order to prove it. So if you do not act on your faith it is dead and it is useless, since it clearly proves that you DO NOT BELIEVE.
Now any person who accepts Jesus into their life receives His Holy Spirit and they are now saved. This does not make them any wiser about God’s truth though and it does not take away their free will to still choose evil. This is why they must surrender their will to the Spirit and allow the Spirit to now change their heart. See Romans 12:1-2. But if that person does not allow the Spirit to start changing their sinful ways to God’s Holy ways and they resist God’s discipline then the Spirit will eventually depart. God calls this procedure sanctification but yet most believers never even allow it to occur since they do not understand how to test the Spirits as instructed in 1 John 4.
“Beloved, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits, whether they are of God; because many false prophets have gone out into the world. By this you know the Spirit of God: Every spirit that confesses that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is of God, and every spirit that does not confess that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is not of God. And this is the spirit of the Antichrist, which you have heard was coming, and is now already in the world. You are of God, little children, and have overcome them, because He who is in you is greater than he who is in the world. They are of the world. Therefore they speak as of the world, and the world hears them. We are of God. He who knows God hears us; he who is not of God does not hear us. By this we know the spirit of truth and the spirit of error.”
I John 4:1-6 NKJV
There are also many believers who believe that they can never stop sinning even though there is not one scripture that states that a Christian will always sin. Now really think about this for a moment. A Christian is someone who is a follower of Christ which means they are supposedly living a sin free life just as Jesus did, but yet most believers are stating that scripture is relating to them that they can never stop sinning! There are scriptures that use terms like, do not sin, has died to sin, has ceased from sin, cannot keep on sinning and cannot sin. All of these terms are used when describing a follower of Christ so why would a believer think that they can never stop sinning?
So here is what most believers are missing. Yes we are all born in sin and we have all sinned but this does not mean that a believer can never stop sinning. Jesus came to forgive us of the sins that we have already committed and this occurs at the moment that we repent of our sins and we accept Jesus and His Holy Spirit into our life. Once we receive His Holy Spirit we were then commanded to surrender our will to God so that we would allow the Spirit to sanctify our heart in God’s truth.
Sanctification is a process where God has us face the lies, the deceptions and the temptations from the devil head on in order to show us how to overcome sin. God does this to teach us His truth and to correct our thinking regarding the sins and the lies that the devil may have us believing. Sanctification requires a lot of time, patience, suffering and endurance and this is actually when many believers fall away. Jesus gave us these examples in the parable of the sower. These were people who believed for awhile but then fell away to one of Satan’s fallacies. So this is how you prove your faith and this is not doing works in order to earn your salvation.
You see, God will not stay in a sinful environment so if you resist the Spirits discipline then the Spirit will leave and you will never get Him back and you will then lose your salvation. Why! As scripture states it would be like you trying to crucify Jesus all over again. This is explained in Hebrews 6:4-8, Hebrews 10:26-39, Hebrews 12:3-13 and 2 Peter 2-20-22. And yes the Spirit will always stay with you, but for that to occur you must do your part. You must learn to change from your sinful ways to God’s holy and sin free ways and not blaspheme the Spirit in the process. All of this explains why someone who falls for the once saved always saved narrative is simply lost and delusional in their beliefs. A Christian is someone who will live just as Jesus did and who does not sin but most believers are not actually Christians. They are simply lost and misguided sinful believers who failed to overcome sin and this is why they will eventually perish in their sin.
“To him who overcomes I will grant to sit with Me on My throne, as I also overcame and sat down with My Father on His throne.”
Revelation 3:21 NKJV
“And He said to me, “It is done! I am the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End. I will give of the fountain of the water of life freely to him who thirsts. He who overcomes shall inherit all things, and I will be his God and he shall be My son. But the cowardly, unbelieving, abominable, murderers, sexually immoral, sorcerers, idolaters, and all liars shall have their part in the lake which burns with fire and brimstone, which is the second death.”
Revelation 21:6-8 NKJV
I know all of these things because I am someone who understands how to test the Spirits and so I have been taught scripture directly by Jesus Himself. Jesus has sanctified me in His truth and so I have overcome sin. Because I have overcome sin this means that I am truly born of God and so the devil can no longer touch me with his sickness and disease.
“We know that whoever is born of God does not sin; but he who has been born of God keeps himself, and the wicked one does not touch him.”

“We know that whoever is born of God does not sin; but he who has been born of God keeps himself, and the wicked one does not touch him.”
I John 5:18 NKJV
Very curious to hear your thoughts about this!
sorry, I couldn't resist. But I will admit, it tripped me up and I wondered if there was any truth to it.
