MICAH 5:1-7:20

PSALM 135:1-21
PROVERBS 30:5-6
Psalm 135:5 “Every word of God is flawless;

But we also need to be sure that we are not claiming that it says something that it does not. There are many people and even churches out there that will claim that the word of God says things that it does not. They will do as the devil does when he quotes scripture. He takes it out of context and claims that it means things other than what it means. We must be careful that we are not led astray by those false teachings. The only way to know if the word of God is being used properly is to study it and learn it so well that the false words are glaringly obvious.

May the counterfeit teaching be proven as lies as you rebuke those who blatantly ignore your truth and try to mislead others. In Jesus name I pray. Amen

I'm hopeful that during the tribulation it is indeed not to late to repent and turn to God. Those mentioned in the above scripture seem to ind…
