If someone’s love toward God’s people has waxed cold, it’s only because their love for the LORD first waxed cold (Matthew 24:10-14). Today is the best day to repent and return to the LORD.
“And then shall many be offended, and shall betray one another, and shall hate one another. 11 And many false prophets shall rise, and shall deceive many. 12 And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold. 13 But he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved. 14 And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come.” Matthew 24:10-14
Did you notice in verse 14 that those who hot for Jesus are participating in the preaching of His Word to the end of the earth (Mark 16:15).
Anyone not devouring God’s Word daily is falling away, is not enduring to the end, does not have Jesus as their “first love” and is choosing to let their love for Jesus wax cold. They are choosing to be on the wrong, the losing end of this prophecy Jesus gave here on record in Matthew 24:10-14.
Notice here in the verse below how setting, allowing wicked things into our eye gates leads to turning aside, departing from Christ, backsliding.
“I will set no wicked thing before mine eyes: I hate the work of them that turn aside; it shall not cleave to me.” Psalms 101:3
PRAYER: Heavenly Father, please break me, make me to be poor in spirit and pure in heart. In Jesus’ name, amen.
IF you are not in God’s Word every day, you have already backslidden!
God’s Word is your life! Proverbs 4:20-23
Don’t have a life of prayer? It’s simply because you are refusing to fellowship with the LORD, you are pushing Him away and are in need of repenting and returning to Jesus as your “first love.” (Revelation 2:4-5)
3 Essential Basics for Every Believer Per Holy Scripture
1. Daily Bible study (Job 23:12; Jer 15:16; 1 Pet 2:2)
2. Daily life of prayer (1 Thess 5:17)
3. Daily fellowship with other true believers (Acts 2:42-47; Heb 3:13; 10:25)
ALL of calvinism and OSAS/eternal security are a diabolical heresy. These are a lying excuse to deny Christ by not living crucified with Him – as He requires as a condition of abiding/remaining with and in Him (Luke 9:23-24; John 15:1-6, etc.). The blessings of God are conditional and not un-conditional as the false teachers teach. These are the very “ungodly men” we are warned about who continue to perpetuate Satan’s first life as they are “turning the grace of our God into lasciviousness (license to sin).” (Jude 3-4)
