Hey guys, Matt Powell here. I wanted to do a quick video just explaining why I
believe it's important to preach hard against false prophets and people that
bring another gospel. The Bible says in Galatians 1-6 it says I marvel that
you're so soon removed from him that called you into the grace of Christ unto
another gospel which is not another but there be some that trouble you and would
pervert the gospel of Christ. And the Bible says in verse 8 it says but though
we or an angel from heaven preach any other gospel unto you than that which we
have preached unto you let him be accursed. So the Bible tells us very
clearly that you know false prophets people that bring in a false gospel were
to let them be accursed. And so I firmly believe that it's very important to even
though it seems confrontational to many people to confront and rebuke sharply
these false prophets and name them by name behind the pulpit and let people
know where we stand on these people. You know for me personally I don't enjoy
calling out certain people and telling other people to stay away from certain
individuals but according to the Bible we're supposed to stand strong on the
on the faith and we should not be tossed to and fro with every wind of doctrine.
And if false teachers feel like they can just come on the scene and nobody's
gonna stand up to them obviously there's gonna be many that will come in and stir
up the flock. And the Bible says that you know after Paul's departure grievous
wolves would come in amongst the flock and wolves in sheep's clothing. So the
reason that I preach so hard against these people that are heretics and
liars and people that deny salvation by faith alone especially that and once
saved always saved the reason that I preach so hard against these people is
these people are sending people to hell. And just think about for a moment
somebody burning in hell. You know it's a it's a terrible thought and then think
about an individual that might have put them there. You know so you know that's
how we should view these people that bring in a false gospel. And so you know
I believe firmly that we should stand on God's Word and I know that some of my
videos that I put out confronting people like Michael Rood or Ron Lovell or
people that bring in a repent of your sins gospel I know that I rebuke them
very hard and some people will get offended but here's the thing there's a
reason why they nailed Jesus to the cross and it's because Jesus wasn't just
some pot smoking hippie you know Jesus was telling the truth at all times and
he told the truth so so well and so straightforward and so plainly to
everybody that they finally just took him and nailed him to the cross they
physically assaulted and killed the Lord Jesus Christ. So you know this idea that
Jesus obviously he went through and flipped tables so Jesus stood up to
these people and I think as Christians we should have no problem standing up
to false teachers and I just wanted to explain to people you know I love people
I try not to be a confrontational guy but when it comes to the false prophets
of the world we want to keep souls out of hell and the best way to do that is
by confronting evil with good and overcoming them with the gospel of
Christ. In closing I'd like to wish you all a wonderful night and I'd like to
just encourage you all to follow God's Word no matter what the cost is and to
just stand strong against false prophets even though it may be considered
hateful to some it is the most loving thing you can do.
