Unfortunately there are issues with many whom we should be able to trust but nonetheless we know that we can’t. Think about it and think hard because it’s no less when it comes to the pastors, preachers, teachers, prophets and those who lead others in their spiritual lives because they are being trusted with people’s eternal lives. Christians are not just trusting their leaders when it comes to their salvations but in the natural as well. There are too many Christians who willingly drank the proverbial Kool Aid when it came to believing what pastors have told them concerning Donald Trump.
They are also trusting that what and all these leaders are saying will bring them into the very presence of God after death. They are trusting that the words that they have trusted in, will have brought them to a place so that when they do come into our Father’s presence they will hear Him say, “well done my good and faithful servant”. But what if those are not the words they hear and the reason they don’t hear them is because they trusted them. What if what was spoken from a pulpit by a pastor, preacher, prophet or teacher was possibly from the Bible, maybe it was scriptural, but something was added to or taken from it. Yeast and leaven has been added to the word of God simply for increase and ego. What if the words heard in the judgment are “depart from me I never knew you” and it’s because someone implicitly trusted what some prophet, preacher or teacher told them? They drank the Kool Aid and swallowed the yeast. Don’t think that it won’t or can’t happen because Jesus warned us about that very thing! We will stand and give an account for allowing ourselves to be taught things that God never said because we didn’t take the responsibility to study and seek Him for ourselves.
