    Dogs, Evil Workers, and the Name Caller Paul

    Dogs, Evil Workers, and the Name Caller Paul,Writer of the Love Chapter

    The Apostle Paul is without a doubt one of the most remarkable men of theScriptures with a most remarkable call. Within his spirit, the Holy Spirit hasplaced a remarkable mystery. One part of this mystery is Jesus Christ within usthe hope of glory. Paul has a calling to make all men see the ramification ofthis facet of the mystery and what it means to not only have Jesus Christ livingwithin but Jesus Christ fully formed both individually and corporately. The full

    formation of Christ Jesus in a mystery is the heart of the Gospel, yet in this lastgreat falling away it is barely being mentioned, if at all, within the ranks ofChristiandom.

    In Philippians Chapter three the Apostles instruction is to rejoice, for within

    what is written from his pen, in Spirit and truth, is a special safety. This safety isa special protection. After instruction to rejoice, in that which is safe, Paul thenwrites a most incredible statement. Beware of dogs, beware of evil workers, andbeware of the concision. Paul, the writer of the Corinthian love chapter called acertain group of believers dogs. The Apostle Paul, after giving instruction torejoice, called men dogs.

    The term dog is not written concerning the kind of dog that one would ownas a pet. This is not Benji, Lassie, or Rin Tin Tin. It instead describes the wilddogs that wander the countryside attacking animals, livestock and evenchildren. Dogs describe those who follow God after the flesh and have self inmind. Dogs describe a pack of animals that are evil workers devouring thechildren of the most High God. They are those who leave the high calling ofGod to return, like a dog, to the vomit of the self life that has absenced itselffrom the working of the cross. Dogs are those who proclaim the name of theLord without His government of grace.

    Paul Named Names of Dogs and Canker Without Apologies

    The Apostle Paul had absolutely no problem in naming the names of dogapostates who were leading the people of God astray. Consider his words toTimothy in I Timothy 1:18-20:

    This charge I commit unto thee, son Timothy, according to the prophecies

    which went before on thee, that thou by them mightiest war a good warfare;

    Holding faith, and a good conscience; which some having put away concerning

  • 8/9/2019 The Seed of the Alabaster Box 04-05-2008

    2/8

    faith have made shipwreck: Of whom is Hymenaeus and Alexander, whom I

    have delivered unto Satan, that they may learn not to blaspheme.

    He publicly held the Apostle Peter as well as the Apostle Barnabas accountablefor their hypocrisy in submitting to separating Jews and Gentiles at the church

    love feast in Galatia. They received his correction in humility. He likewisementioned by name those who were overthrowing the faith of some with theteaching of error in II Timothy 2:17-18

    And their word will eat as doth a canker: of whom is Hymenaeus and Philetus;

    Who concerning the truth have erred, saying that the resurrection is past

    already; and overthrow the faith of some.

    In describing the perilous times of this last great falling, he names those witha form of Christianity who have crept into spiritual houses leading those in sinaway from God. He calls and names such men reprobates in his admonition toTimothy in II Timothy 3:5-8:

    Having a from of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn

    away. For of this sort are they which creep into houses, and lead captive silly

    women laden with sins, led away with divers lusts, Ever learning, and never

    able to come to the knowledge of the truth. Now as Jannes and Jambres

    withstood Moses, so do these also resist truth: men of corrupt minds, reprobate

    concerning the faith.

    Likewise in Biblical manner, the Apostle John writes of and names the dog-likeleadership that invaded the church as described in III John verses 9-10:

    I wrote unto the church: but Diotrephes, who loveth to have the preeminence

    among them, receiveth us not Wherefore, if I come, I will remember his deeds

    which he doeth, prating against us with malicious words: and not content

    therewith, neither doth he himself receive the brethren, and forbiddeth them that

    would and casteth them out of the church.,

    The Evil Work of Antichrist Embraced by the Multitude in the Church

    Napoleon Bonaparte who created global havoc at the end of the eighteenth

    century and the beginning of the nineteenth century expressed the thought ofsatan. He expressed satans thought when he brought forth the idea that the

    greatest way to destroy was through gradual displacement. It is by slow andgradual displacement that the church is being lost until it comes to the placewhere it will not show even the slightest reflection of Jesus Christ. Thisnewsletter will endeavor to show the displacement of truth with the gradual

    replacement of a lie. This newsletter will endeavor to pull the mask off theseducing spirit that brings displacement.

    The Simple Test of Antichrist

    I deeply believe that there has through the centuries been much false

    3/8

    ministry, especially today. I believe all ministry is to be deeply tried or tested

    as to its authentically being of God or a masquerading devil. This belief isaccording to Scripture that I believe is best expressed in I John 4:1-3:

    Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God:

    because many false prophets are gone out into the world. Hereby know ye the

    Spirit of God: Every spirit that confesseth that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh

    is of God: And every spirit that confesseth not that Jesus Christ is come in the

    flesh is not of God: and this is that spirit of antichrist, whereof ye have heard

    that it should come; and even now already is it in the world.

    The test is rather elementary in that first we must believe that God became

    flesh, that being Jesus Christ alone. Because of this fact He is the only begottenSon of God. Secondly, that He is the Word become flesh and that perfect Wordhas manifested in a perfect God breathed book known as the sacred Scripturesor the Bible. Third, that He died upon the cross taking our place in judgmentand that His death paid the price for our sins. When He proclaimed It isfinished, that salvation was complete for those who accept and know Jesus astheir Savior. Fourth, that He physically conquered death and physically roseagain from the dead. That He ascended back into heaven where He reigns indivine transcendency. Transcendency is that He is above all things and that

    none is like Him, He is Holy. With the grounds of the test establishedaccording to Scripture let us now test the teachings of our time and if theresource is in the displacement that is manifest in widespread acceptance by the

    church today.

    Test # 1: Displacement in the Modern Bibles -The NIV Examined

    Philippians 2:5-6:

    KJV: Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus:

    Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal withGod:

    NIV: Your attitude should be the same as that of Christ Jesus:

    Who, being in very nature God, did not consider equality with God

    something to be grasped.What is to be noted is that the apostates that translated from the perverted

    Vatican texts state that equality with God was something that Jesus could notgrasp. This contradicts the received texts used exclusively by the church ineighteen centuries of History until 1881. Let it be noted that Jesus received

    worship as God throughout the Gospels proclaiming that before Abraham was,I Am. In fact He was crucified for his proclamation that he was Gods Sonwhich made him a part of the Godhead. Let it also dually be noted that the termthe Only Begotten Son is completely omitted from the NIV, as well as the

    term Mercy Seat. With over 65,000 words removed as well as entireScriptures and many Scriptures changed as cited above The N.I.V. fails the test

    and is a living example of displacement widely excepted in the church.

    Test # 2: The Love of Money-Prosperity Replaces Righteousness

    I can remember in the 1970s when the so called prosperity message firststarted to seduce and gain popularity in the church. I can remember feelingcompletely sick at the idea of giving to get. God is not lets make a deal.

    This doctrine of the self realm was the beginning of the seduction out of theperversion of the Scriptures that deeply failed the simple test of Scripture foundin I Timothy 6:5-11:

    Perverse disputing of men of corrupt minds, and destitute of the truth,supposing that gain is godliness: from such withdraw thyself. But

    godliness with contentment is great gain.

    For we brought nothing into this world, and it is certain we can carry

    nothing out. And having food and raiment let us be therewith content.

    But they that will be rich fall into temptation and a snare, and into many

    foolish and hurtful lusts, which drown men in destruction and perdition.

    For the love of money is the root of all evil: which while some coveted

    after, they have erred from the faith, and pierced themselves through with

    many sorrows.

    But thou, O man of God, flee these things; and follow after righteousness,

    godliness, faith, love, patience, meekness.

    Let it be deeply noted that in many of the modern versions of Scripture the wordrighteousness has been replaced with prosperity.

    Test # 3: Jesus Had To Be Born Again

    The idea that Deity had to be born again is blasphemy. To think that thesinless, eternal creator who became flesh had to be born again is to make himlike us. Jesus is of divine transcendence, nothing created is a part of Him for

    He is above all things. Sinful man must be translated or born into His natureout of a sinful nature. To say Jesus had to be born again is to say He was a manin need of translation and sinful. The truth is that Jesus never sinned. Suddenly

    the word of faith teachers that love money so deeply started to belittle Jesus tomake Him like us, in need of being born again. This idea had origin in a

    significant way with faith teacher Kenneth Hagin whom I quote.

    Hagin: Why did he need to be begotten or born? Because he became like wewere-separated from God, because he tasted spiritual death for every man. Andhis spirit and inner man went to hell in my place, cant you see that? Physical

    death wouldnt remove your sins, hes tasted death for every man. Hes talkingabout tasting spiritual death. Jesus is the first person that was ever born again.Why did his spirit need to be born again? Because it was estranged from God.

    First I would like to point out that Jesus did not come to us separated from His

  • 8/9/2019 The Seed of the Alabaster Box 04-05-2008

    5/8

    Father. That is completely unbiblical. He came to us as deity in complete

    union with his Father. That is demonstrated in so many Scriptures that if Iquoted them all I would be here all day. What Kenneth Hagin stated concerningthis matter is completely false. Jesus showed us a man who was in such unionwith His Father that He never sinned. Jesus was the Son of God, part of the

    Godhead as well as the Son of Man. He came as a man to fulfill the law andsatisfy the requirements of a Holy God on behalf of man. The Scripture statesthat this is a great mystery; however there is not one Scripture that stated thatJesus or His Holy Spirit, the third person of the Godhead, needed to be born

    again. To be born again is the requirement for entering the kingdom of Heaven.Need I remind the word of faith camp that Jesus came from heaven!

    Test # 4: That the Death of Jesus on the Cross Did Not Pay For Our Sin.

    With the ongoing displacement of who Jesus really is comes along thedisplacement of what He accomplished at the cross. The satanic idea that Hehad to be born again as well as the idea that his physical death didnt pay theprice at the cross is taken by Kenneth Copeland a step further. Considercarefully what is quoted from the teaching of Kenneth Copeland.

    Copeland: Now it wasnt the physical death on the cross that paid the price forsins. Because if it had of been, any prophet of God that had died for the last

    couple of thousand years before that could have paid that price. It wasntphysical death, anybody could have done that.

    Kenneth Copeland then goes on to tell of when he heard God tell him and Iquote:

    Copeland: Realize this; dont let tradition trip you up. A twice born manwhipped satan in his own domain; a born again man defeated satan.

    Of course it is obvious to discern that this was not God and that Copeland failedto test the spirit that spoke to him. However what I am about to quote revealsthe audacity and pride of this deeply deceived man. This spirit then spoke to

    Copeland and Copeland informed his audience of his continued conversationfrom which I quote:

    Copeland: You couldnt dare mean that I could have done the same thing,(That Jesus accomplished in bringing eternal salvation}. Oh yeah, if you had the

    knowledge of the word of God that he {Jesus} did, you could have done thesame thing cause youre a reborn man too.

    How interesting that we now learn that Kenneth Copeland thinks he could have

    died for the sins of the world and defeated satan in hell. This is blasphemy andthe profaning of who Jesus really is. No one could have accomplished whatJesus Christ did on that cross. When Jesus died on the cross He proclaimed Itis finished. The veil was torn in two and man has gained access into the Holy

    of Holies by His sin offering death at the cross. His death satisfied the HolyFather completely. Consider what the Scripture proclaims in opposition to this

  • 8/9/2019 The Seed of the Alabaster Box 04-05-2008

    6/8

    false teaching in Hebrews 9: 14-15:

    How much more shall the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit

    offered himself without spot to God, purge your conscience from dead

    works to serve the living God? And for this cause he is the mediator of the

    new testament, that by means of death, for the redemption of the

    transgressions that were under the first testament, they which are called

    might receive the promise of eternal inheritance.

    Test # 5: Are You an Anti-Christ If You Believe Jesus Was GodWhen He Walked This Earth?

    As we walk the heresy trail with the apostates who so deeply influence, thedisplacement becomes more pronounced. Perhaps the most brazen of thefoolish is Creflo Dollar. Recently I personally watched Dollar teach an entiresession on why Jesus was not God when He walked this earth. Remember thatthe test of antichrist is whether God had become flesh, a great fact in themystery of our fellowship. Apparently Dollar received a lot of criticismbecause the next week when I watched him on the television he boldlyproclaimed If you believe Jesus was God when He walked this earth then you

    are an antichrist. What started as the root of all evil, the love of money,graduated to Jesus being separated from His Father and needing to be bornagain. From there Jesus and even His Spirit needed to be born again and His

    death on the cross didnt pay the price, because after all, any born again personincluding Kenneth Copeland could have become the Savior of the world. Nowwe have the growing displacement manifest out of the Dollars mouth that youare antichrist if you administer the test of antichrist. If you have read this faryou might be surprised where were going next.

    Test#6: Jesus Is Not the Only Begotten Son of God

    Earlier in this treatise I mentioned how that the New International Version

    eliminated the term the only Begotten Son of God from the pages of theScriptures. Apparently the removal of these precious words has manifested inteaching. Recently I personally watched Paula White teach the people that

    Jesus was not the only begotten Son of God and that we are all the begottensons of God. I first heard of Paula White taking donation money to buy T.D.

    Jakes the most expensive of the Rolls Royce line of cars. I saw anadvertisement for her Stiletto high heel conference to exalt women in thebusiness world. I guess she never learned that our vocation is not the exaltingof man in the world but the exalting of Jesus Christ in transcendence. That is

    the true meaning of giving Glory to God in spirit and truth. Donald Trump is aregular on her television program. As her teaching continued, she continued toexhort with another teacher that all believers are the begotten sons of God.While it is true that we are sons of the living God by the new birth, only the

    Lord Jesus Christ who is King of Kings and Lord of Lords is the only BegottenSon of God. He is the only one who is God become flesh. Remember the test of

  • 8/9/2019 The Seed of the Alabaster Box 04-05-2008

    7/8

    antichrist. Again we see the belittling of the uniqueness of the Lord Jesus Christ

    and the exaltation of man to Gods equality. Anyone heard of the tree of theknowledge of good and evil in the Garden of Eden? II Corinthians 11:3 states:

    But I fear, lest by any means, as the serpent beguiled Eve through his

    subtilty, so your minds should be corrupted from the simplicity that is in

    Christ.

    Test # 7: Do Not Pray to Jesus Anymore

    As I watched this deeply deceived woman teaching spiritual adultery withher male teaching partner, I heard words that further shocked and grieved myspirit. The words of this Jezebel were Do not pray to Jesus anymore. I feel

    shock in my spirit as I write this realizing that the spirit of antichrist is so deeplyin the church that the Evangelical, Pentecostal church will become my enemy,for I will never stop praying to Jesus and in His Name. He is the only highpriest and mediator between man and God.I Timothy 2:5-6:

    For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the manChrist Jesus; Who game himself a ransom for all, to be testified in due

    time.

    Test # 8: Hugging Jezebel With Rick Warren

    In the history of the presidency of the great God blessed country known asthe United States of America, there has been no presidency that has done morethan that of William Jefferson Clinton to dishonor God. His Supreme Courtappointment of Ruth Vader Ginsburg, the chief counsel of the antichristA.C.L.U., has darkened our judicial system with the very devils of hell. The

    A.C.L.U. defended in court the North American Man Boy Love Associationwhen it was sued by the parents of a murdered child. The child had beenmurdered by a pedophile that had used their material that teaches how to seduceyoung boys by the gift of a bicycle. The pedophile using the material murdered

    the young boy. Likewise the wicked immorality of William Jefferson Clinton,that became public, has become an example that has brought a knowledge ofsexual immorality that plagues the public school even onto Junior High age.

    As everyone knows, Hillary Clinton a staunch supporter of sodomitemarriages and abortion, which is the brutal slaughter of innocents, is running forpresident. Recently Hillary Clinton spoke at the Saddle Back church where RickWarren, who is proclaimed Americas pastor, is the senior pastor. After Hillaryspoke the church gave her a standing ovation. How sad that the church is soseduced that it applauds the wicked. How deeply is the church deceived thatRick Warren, a member of the Council of Foreign Relations, an organization

    that is undermining the United States and openly building the One WorldGovernment, can join with Hillary Clinton for a standing ovation. Globalgovernment builders with watered down Bible versions wearing a preachersmask need the testing of antichrist. Rick Warren is not Americas Pastor.

    Test # 9: The Leviathan Spirit and False Love and Unity-Be Careful Who You Pray With!

    Beloved be careful not to pray with people that represent themselves asbelievers under these kinds of teachings from hell. The seduced are under thebelief that if the test of antichrist is applied that somehow those who resist thespirit of antichrist are without love. Love only moves in the truth according to

    Scriptures. There are those that believe that if you do not unite in the simplicityof their being deceived, you have the spirit of Leviathan. Leviathan was thevery devil in the Garden of Eden. That devil is not in those who test the spiritof antichrist. In fact, the devils that are under Leviathans command are deeply

    troubled when they are discovered by those that test the spirit of antichrist.There are many silly individuals laden with sin that will pray for a false unityunder the false wisdom and do not understand the resisting of the spirit ofantichrist. Be careful not to pray with them.
