"BEWARE: WOLVES in SHEEP'S CLOTHING!!"


“BEWARE: WOLVES in SHEEP’S CLOTHING!!”

 

The people are grumblers and faultfinders; they follow their own evil desires; they boast about themselves and flatter others for their own advantage.

But, dear friends, remember what the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ foretold.  They said to you, “In the last times there will be scoffers who will follow their own ungodly desires.” 

These are the people who divide you, who follow mere natural instincts and do not have the Spirit.     

Jude 1:16-19

 

Signs of the times, maybe, but even Jude recognized the UNGODLY, who were infiltrating the body of TRUE BELIEVERS, and they were slipping in, as WOLVES IN SHEEP’S CLOTHING, carrying DEADLY actions that would / will destroy the work of God’s Holy Spirit. 

 

How, you might ask, can you recognize such people?  Jude tells us they are GRUMBLERS and FAULTFINDERS; they follow their own evil desires; they BOAST about themselves and FLATTER others for their own advantage. Wow, that hits a lot of people, especially those who sit in the pews of churches, every Sunday.  They scrutinize EVERY little thing that THEY don’t agree with, whether it is SCRIPTURAL or NOT.  If they think it’s wrong, they will GRUMBLE and FIND FAULT with it.  And they will sometimes BOAST about what THEY have done in the past or even in the present, then they will SPREAD the POISION among the other believers with their FLATTERING WORDS to gain support for their UNGODLY AGENDA.

 

Now, it seem as though Satan is working overtime, in some churches, he KNOWS time is short, and the more he can wreak havoc within the body of believers, the GREATER destruction to the MISSION and MANDATE of the church.  Jude says: “But, dear friends, remember what the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ foretold.  They said to you, “In the LAST TIMES there will be scoffers who will follow their own ungodly desires.”  ‘THESE ARE PEOPLE WHO DIVIDE YOU, WHO FOLLOW MERE NATURAL INSTINCTS and DO NOT HAVE THE SPIRIT.”  BEWARE of the WOLVES in SHEEP’S CLOTHING, who will pull the WOOL over the eyes of even those who are TRUE BELIEVERS. 

 

You might ask, why God isn’t intervening and stopping this atrocity.  Well, He might be doing that right NOW, with this WARNING.  God will put the TRUE BELIEVERS to the test of whether they will LOVE Him enough to take a stand for HIM or whether they will BLINDLY FOLLOW a SMOOTH TALKING, FLATTERING, WOLF in SHEEP’S CLOTHING, and do the bidding of Satan to DIVIDE the BODY of the CHURCH, to cause a DISRUPTION in the WORK of GOD, and may cause the SPIRITUAL DEATH of MANY lost people.  Where do you STAND?  With those who are SCHEMING, PLOTTING, FOLLOWING the ways of the WOLF in SHEEP’S CLOTHING? ARE YOU helping them DESTROY GOD’S WORK?   PRAYERFULLY, you are NOT a part of the PROBLEM, but are a BLESSING to the Church and its MISSION.   If you have been BLINDLY sucked into the UNGODLY TACTICS of the WOLF in SHEEP’s CLOTHING, God’s giving you the opportunity NOW to TURN AROUND and FOLLOW HIS WORD, BE OBEDIENT to Him and STOP!!! FOLLOWING THAT WOLF and with a TRUE REPENTANT HEART, CONFESS your SINS to Him and ask His FORGIVENESS.  He is FAITHFUL and JUST and will FORGIVE. 

 

If you have NOT given your HEART and LIFE to God then you are FOLLOWING SATAN straight to Hell, for ALL ETERNITY.  You may even be his pawn, by being the WOLF in SHEEP’S CLOTHING.  If this is the case, you NEED to be SAVED.  This is what you must do to gain SALVATION:  Come to God with a TRUE REPENTANT HEART, CONFESSING your sins to Him and asking Him for His FORGIVENESS, BELIEVING, with ALL your HEART, that Jesus died for YOU, and is ALIVE in Heaven, making intercession for you before God, then ACCEPT His gift of SALVATION, and WORK to BUILD UP the Body of Christ, and NOT bring CONDEMNATION on yourself.  Do it NOW, while your still can.  He’s waiting and coming SOON!!!
