Subject: Did Jesus go to hell? |
Bible Note: Justme The WOF faith doctrine is probably the most destructive doctrine that faces the church today. I have seen churches dissolve over it. I have seen ministers throw in the towel and quite because of it. I have seen families destroyed over it. I have seen people give up and take their lives because of it. When people put their faith in faith and it fails they have nothing left. WOF teaches another Jesus and basically replaces God with a god called faith. Once people are into it, it is very hard to get them out. They have been proof texted into believing the lie. When ever you discuss theology with a WOF be prepared to be hit with one proof text after another. They care nothing about context or meaning, their only concern is how they can manipulate the text to agree with what they said. Unfortunately the many of the big name Christian TV “stars” are deep in to it and they spread its lie like a fire through dry grass. It tickles the ear because it basically puts man back into control. If your faith is strong enough there is nothing you can’t do. If your faith is pure enough there is nothing that can be withheld from you. If your faith is true enough you life becomes a life of Riley. They completely forget, God’s will, His plan, His desire. They forget that God challenges and tests us to strengthen us. They forget that someone else may be praying for something completely different. They forget we live in a fallen world. They forget Peter and John both wrote epistles telling us not to be discouraged when trials and tribulations come into our lives. WOF changes God from the Sovereign Creator and attempts to turn God into a servant that must run to do our beck and call. Their will deny that statement in a minute they claim they are just holding God to His promises. As if there was a grand supreme court in the sky the God has to answer too. The results are the same God is not longer God but becomes the valet hurrying to do our bid. The biggest problem is they will not listen or read anything that may open their eyes. Like all cults they have been warned about people, books, or teaching that contradicts WOF. They are to avoid them at all cost. They have been so indoctrinated and told to not let anything enter their life that may steal their faith. If their faith is so weak that it can stand the scrutiny of their own mind after reading an article that disagrees with their stand they really don’t have much to begin with. In other words their leaders say don’t you dare listen to anyone that has a different view, their wrong and just listening will weaken your faith. I have repeatedly tried to get WOF to read to excellent books on the deception of WOF “Christianity in Crisis and “Counterfeit Revival” both written by Hank Hanegraaff. Most have been cautioned to stay away from reading this book as it might “steal” your faith. Again if you faith is that weak maybe it needs to brought into the light of the truth. Sorry I will now get down from my soapbox. :-) EdB |
