Don't Argue Religion

"BELOVED, DO not put faith in every spirit, but prove (test) the spirits to discover whether they proceed from God; for many false prophets have gone forth into the world. By this you may know (perceive and recognize) the Spirit of God: every spirit which acknowledges and confesses [the fact] that Jesus Christ (the Messiah) [actually] has become man and has come in the flesh is of God [has God for its source];" 1 John 4:1-2

These verses in 1 John are a great test to use when confronted with religion; so many people seem to want to argue religion. Don’t argue religion, it’s a total waste of time! Especially when people get off on their denomination, Christ is not divided. Don’t argue, just allow the Holy Ghost to use you to share our Father's Truth’s in love. Always let God’s Word stand on its own.

So if you find yourself with someone who does want to argue here is what you can do, ask the person to describe their relationship with Jesus? If it never comes up that Jesus is in them, and that they are in Him, or that they are united or one with Him, than you know what is going on. The Holy Ghost clearly tells us what to do; out of the abundance of our hearts our mouths will speak. If a person doesn’t answer according to 1 John 4:1-2, start sharing these scriptures, share about how you were indwelled with the Holy Spirit and how you are one with Jesus. The sower sows the Word of God and our Father's Word will not fall void to the earth, it will accomplish what He intended for it to do!

"Ye are of God, little children, and have overcome them: because greater is He that is in you, than he that I sin the world." 1 John 4:4

"In this was manifested the love of God toward us, because that God sent His only begotten Son into the world, that we might live through Him." 1 John 4:9

Jesus is now in us and we are now in Him; we are now one with Him. The Holy Ghost is now in us and we are all now in God. This is our peace, it is our joy, and this unity is our protection. No weapon formed against The Trinity shall prosper, and thus, no weapon formed against us shall prosper. We are sealed until the day of our redemption and we have been given the Anointing of God, so that we may operate in the full power of His Word, which is in abundance in our hearts! We have the Spirit of Christ, Who is for us, and through Jesus nothing can be against us! So just share the Truth the best that you can and don't get all caught up in denominations or man made doctrines, just sow the Word.

Be blessed in our Father's love and try the spirits with the power of His love. Serve all those whom God leads into your life and through the love and the power of Christ that is within you, you will never be ashamed!
