For there are certain men crept in unawares, who were before of old ordained to this condemnation, ungodly men, turning the grace of our God into lasciviousness, and denying the only Lord God, and our Lord Jesus Christ. (Jude 4)
We have seen much of this over the past two decades, as we now enter the last days of perilous times, as the Body of Christ reels under the seduction and deception by large numbers of false teachers and Christians who are mockers and walk according to their own ungodly lusts
sensual people causing division, and not having the Spirit (Jude 18-19); perverting His Inspired Word, and our Lord Jesus Christs grace, denying His authority through the doctrine of demons.
They have cleverly infiltrated the Body of Christ, and even though they appear to walk in the Spirit, and make all the right sounds; they are false, spreading untruth and their traditions of men, as they push their empty deceit of worldly and new age philosophy (Col. 2:8).
Our Lord Jesus Christ spoke of them, wolves in sheeps clothing (Matt. 7:15), as they teach a grace that is perverted, dangerous, seducing and deceiving.
I believe because of what has happened since the 1990s and now into 2009 that His People are going to be seduced and deceived even further by those who appear to be messengers from our Lord Jesus Christ, when they are Satans agents.
These are spots in your feasts of charity, when they feast with you, feeding themselves without fear: clouds they are without water, carried about of winds; trees whose fruit withereth, without fruit, twice dead, plucked up by the roots; raging waves of the sea, foaming out their own shame; wandering stars, to whom is reserved the blackness of darkness for ever. (Jude 12-13)
This year there will be many hidden reefs, and we all need to be sober and vigilant and be on our guard for seducers and deceivers whose trees may look fruitful, but they are ministers of Satan, promising spiritual growth and prosperity.
They talk about a Christ and Jesus, but not about our Lord Jesus Christ. They put on a good show, but lack any real substance; boast of liberty and salvation, but are seducing and deceiving; put His Lambs and Sheep into further bondage to sin: While they promise them liberty, they themselves are the servants of corruption: for of whom a man is overcome, of the same is he brought in bondage (2 Pet. 2:19).
They are like wandering stars, network stars, TV stars, and after they do their evil deeds and make their money, they move on to other places to exploit His Children once again, and who still fail to be exposed.
Because this is happening, as we slip into 2009, I believe that the Body of Christ will begin to change its life, and we will be looking for and hasting (hasten to a place) unto the coming of the day of our Lord Jesus Christ, because its not far away.
