GAMES PASTORS OR WOLVES  PLAY

Romans 10:2 For I bear them record that they have a zeal of God, but not according to knowledge. Greetings. I am no sports fan and could not name two players on my own local ball-team, Last I heard they were doing terribly. Now this does not make me holy, that I do watch sports because I have no interest in them. Millions of Christian have no zeal for the true things of God, and those that do, have only a zeal has to how they interpret the Bible.  1 Samuel 26:21Then said Saul, I have sinned: return, my son David: for I will no more do thee harm, because my soul was precious in thine eyes this day: behold, I have played the fool, and have erred exceedingly. At least king Saul, [the first king of ancient Israel] admitted he played the fool, we have not admitted. We do not need a physical rubber ball to play the fool in the things of God, only our own foolish wisdom about His word.  
I enjoy watching the games people play and this does not involve buying any fancy sport equipment. These days it’s alright to be any kind of a fanatic other than a religious or gun fanatic. The word fan is short for the word, fanatic. Fanatic: a person filled with excessive and single-minded zeal. I am drawn to that word zeal in the above first verse, in fact I’m drawn to all the words of the Bible. Because I want to know what each word means to God and not to me. Single-mindedness is a characteristic of zeal and is a good thing if we’re single-minded in the things of God. James 1:8 A double minded man is unstable in all his ways. People go down to a physical altar, repeat after some man a seven-point prayer and off they go are rushing around trying to get everybody they meet saved. Romans 10:2  For I bear them record that they have a zeal of God, but not according to knowledge. Some Churches came up with a family day were you are to invite unsaved family members to come out. The whole family day is a clever ruse to add new members to the already congregation of the dead. Proverbs 21:16The man that wandereth out of the way of understanding shall remain in the congregation of the dead. 
The Pastors of these Churches are not saved or his members and now they just added more to their congregation of the dead. These Pastors fumble or stumble over God’s word to preach their own witness or wisdom about God’s words. God’s word is an offence to our carnal mind and our carnal mind cannot be obedient to its Spiritual laws. 1 Peter 2:8 And a stone of stumbling, and a rock of offence, even to them which stumble at the word, being disobedient: whereunto also they were appointed. We are saved by hearing the faith or God’s revealed words: this does not happen all a once. 1 Timothy 2:4  Who would have all men to be saved, and come unto the knowledge of the truth. I cannot recall not a physical day goes by in which God has not shown me something new out of His word. When God revealing something from His word, He is correcting our carnal thinking or opening mine eyes.    Psalm 119:18  Open thou mine eyes, that I may behold wondrous things out of they law. The above verse is a desire King David had, and a desire is a prayer.  When I not not hearing His words I am in sin and have not come into the knowledge of His truth.1 Timothy 2:4 Who will have all men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth. We must first be instructed by the Holy Ghost how to separate our vile thoughts from God thoughts as we read the Bible. This takes time, even years to separate our own thoughts from God’s thoughts: it cannot happen in a ten minute altar call. Millions of so-called Christian aren’t even rookies or novice in the things of God. 1 Timothy 3:6Not a novice, lest being lifted up with pride he fall into the condemnation of the devil. We just can’t go around saying words which we have no Spiritual knowledge of what a word means: take the word, condemnation in the above verse means. We condemned ourselves, by saying we Spiritually see and hearing the words of God. At this point we are saying the things of God are that of a men: we are the devils. When we read the Bible there’s an evil speaker in the land making his thoughts God wisdom: it’s us. We all have loved going around calling other people evil, one of history’s favorite person whom men love to call evil: has been a long physically dead character whom sported a small mustache. Now for such a dead evil person this person gets a lot of airtime on the History Channel, he is secretly admired by millions. There’s nothing more wicked than any man or women who says they speak for God; when they are only speaking for themselves. John 7:17If any man will do his will, he shall know of the doctrine, whether it be of God, or whether I speak of myself. We have a lot of evil speakers in the land that make that little guy with the small mustache look like a choir boy. Psalm 140:11 Let not an evil speaker be established in the earth: evil shall hunt the violent man to overthrow him. We cannot instruct anybody in the knowledge of God until ourselves have been instructed. This is a zeal but, it’s a zeal is not according to any Spiritual knowledge of God’s word and an evil speaker is in the land or God’s word. Until we have humbled ourselves enough to hear the faith, we can only play the fool. Millions of Pastors play games with people souls everyday convincing people they are saved and filled with the Holy Ghost just because they repeated after some man and babbled some foolishness. The only thing people are filled with once they leave the millions of altars in the United States is the devil and this happens on any given Sunday. Acts 13:10
And said, O full of all subtilty and all mischief, thou child of the devil, thou enemy of all righteousness, wilt thou not cease to pervert the right ways of the Lord? The millions of Pastors have perverted God’s way for the ways of men ways of seeing the Bible, which is sin. Thus, we have two ways spoken of in the Bible: man’s ways or his truth and God’s ways which is the only truth. John 18:38Pilate saith unto him, what is truth? Now if Pilate asked of Jesus this question out of mockery or a real desire only the Holy Ghost knows for sure. Point being, Pilate asked we on the other hand think we already know what truth is and become a fool. Proverbs 10:23It is as sport to a fool to do mischief. As I have pondered over this word sport in the Bible for months and now, I can rejoice because God has shown me more about this word. In our not so modern times professional sports pay a big issue and lots of people are fanatical about them. Were power and speed has a lot to do with athletes getting the advantage over one another; deception sometimes plays a greater role. When a fool is in sport, they are deceiving themselves and they mock the things of God. 2 Peter 2:13 And shall receive the reward of unrighteousness, as they that count it pleasure to riot in the daytime. Spots they are and blemishes, sporting themselves with their own deceivings while they feast with you. As a young man I excelled in the martial arts and besides using speed and power I relied a great deal on deception: tricking my opponent into thinking I might kick him, when I could do something else, he did not see coming. Sporting themselves with their own deceiving. When we think we are something in the things of God and we are not: we are in sport. 1 Corinthians 8:2 And if any man think that he knoweth any thing, he knoweth nothing yet as he ought to know. That’s has been the biggest deception in the above verse: any man think that he knoweth any thing, as a natural carnal man.  The natural man knows nothing ! I know nothing as we ought to know: only God’s Spirit knows the things or word of God. Will we humble ourselves and come out of sport to let Him instruct us! The natural carnal mind of man knows nothing, this man must be destroyed before the new man or creature can come forth. 2 Corinthians 5:17Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; [ those old thoughts about God's word] behold, all things are become new. If that old man is not crucified with Christ: then you're still spiritually married to your old man. Mark 10:12And if a women shall put away her husband and be married to another, she committeth  adultery.None of us can claim to be the bride of Christ when we are fornicating with those old thoughts and producing spiritual bastards thoughts about God's word.  EXODUS 20:14THOU SHALT NOT COMMIT ADULTERY. Of course when we take a physical spouse for a companion we should live up to those vows we made, 80% percent of us do not. Most of us only love what the other person can do for us; stop doing and you will find out how much you are really loved.
When we are seeing the Bible in the wisdom or knowledge of men, we become the enemy of all of God’s righteousness.1 Timothy 2:4 Who will have all men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth. Men have come to a knowledge, but it is not the knowledge of God; it’s just the wisdom or knowledge of the world. All our wisdom about the Bible must be destroyed to receive God’s wisdom and this is mentally painful to my fleshly thinking. 1 Corinthians 1:19 For it is written, I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, and will bring to nothing the understanding of the prudent. Is is not wonderful that God wants to give us a soul or a desire, but the old man in us, only wants death or the fleshly way of seeing the Bible? Without a desire you cannot possess your soul, when you physical die you return the dust. Ecclesiates 12:7 Then shall the dust return to the earth as it was: and the spirit shall return unto God who gave it. Pastors have played games with the souls of millions and we have loved it.  Job 10:4Hast thou eyes of flesh? or seest thou as man seeth? When we look at the Bible in our own wisdom and go away with our interpretation: we have just seen the Bible in the eyes of flesh: this is sin. Proverbs 24:9 The thought of foolishness is sin. God is not on the same level of men earthly wisdom and we cannot level the playing field: a field in the Bible represents the world. Matthew 13:38The field is the world; the good seed are the children of the kingdom; but the tares are the children of the wicked one. Of course, millions of used car-salesmen I mean Pastors have told us seed in the Bible represents money. 1 Samuel 26:21Then said Saul, I have sinned: return, my son David: for I will no more do thee harm, because my soul was precious in thine eyes this day: behold, I have played the fool, and have erred exceedingly. King Saul admitted he played and erred exceedingly: what did this wicked King erred in? Instruction, from God so he sought out a witch or the spirit of man. Proverbs 19:27  Cease, my son, to hear the instruction that causeth to err from the words of knowledge. There is a spirit born in all men and it’s not God’s Spirit; to receive God’s Spirit we cease from our own wisdom about the Bible. 1 John 4:6 We are of God: he that knoweth God heareth us; he that is not of God heareth not us. Hereby know we the spirit of truth, and the spirit of error. Witchcraft is simply this: claiming we are speaking for God and we cannot divide the word of true from our spirit of error. We do not need a broom or pointed hat to call ourselves a witch, only rebellion against God’s truth and reject his word as King Saul did. 1 Samuel 15:23For rebellion is as the sin of witchcraft, and stubbornness is as iniquity and idolatry. Because thou hast rejected the word of the Lord, he hath also rejected thee from being king. A mule is a stubborn animal I’m told, he always wants to go its own way and so is a two-legged ass called man. Job 11:12 For vain man would be wise, though man be born like a wild ass’s colt.  A Pastors calling is to confirm the word’s God spoke and not his wisdom about God sheep or words. Man has only thought of a Shepard or Pastor as something only physical. Thus, we have millions of elegant speakers sporting themselves as shepherds and God never sent them. John 10:13 The hireling fleeth, because he is an hireling, and careth not for the sheep. A man hired these use-car salesmen and not God: they hired themselves. Notice in the above verse it says the hireling fleeth, then from what? God’s judgment, they refuse to allow God’s words to judge themselves and mentally flees from it. John 9:39 And Jesus said, for judgment I am come into this world, that they which see not might see; and that they which see might be made blind. Try a telling a fool they’re not saved just because they stopped doing something physical: lying, cheating, etc. Proverbs 17:12 Let a bear robbed of her whelps meet a man, rather than a fool in his folly. When we are into folly or deceit we would rather fight than switch our wicked thoughts against God’s
