Subject: “Doctrines of DEMONS!” – July 2025 NM Prayer Connect/PATH, NM/COG, NM – El Paso, TX & SWIM Newsletter!   NAS – 1 Timothy 4:1-5 Apostasy 1 But the Spirit explicitly says that in later times some will fall away from the faith, paying attention to deceitful spirits and doctrines of demons, 2 by means of the hypocrisy of liars seared in their own conscience as with a branding iron, 3 men who forbid marriage and advocate abstaining from foods which God has created to be gratefully * shared in by those who believe and know the truth. 4 For everything created by God is good, and nothing is to be rejected if it is received with gratitude; 5 for it is sanctified by means of the word of God and prayer.   What would you think if you heard a so called ‘minister of God,’ from the pulpit to his congregation say, “Everyone knows that Yeshua (Jesus’ Hebrew Name) came to bring us back to the law!” If we believe, like Paul the Apostle, when moved upon by the Holy Spirit to write, “All scripture is God breathed (2 Timothy 3:16-17),” then we have to correct bad teaching.  What would you do if you knew a ‘man of God’ was coming into your state and was practicing necromancy (communicating with the dead and/or ‘grave sucking’), which is considered an abomination to God and is totally forbidden by Him, according to Leviticus 19:31; 20:6 & Deuteronomy 18:10-12, leading to severe consequences, such as being cut off from the people, because it is idolatry and a turning away from God’s authority.  Isaiah 8:19 asks if a people should not seek their God rather than the dead and 1 Samuel 28 warns about the consequences of forbidden occult practices.  How would you respond to ‘ministry leaders’ telling you that the bible, the ‘infallible (incapable of error or deception, trustworthy, and reliable)’ word of God has contradictions throughout? Such things are happening, right here in NM, across America and around the world! Acts 1:3 refers to the resurrection of Jesus and is used to highlight the certainty of Christ’s claims.  My dear sisters and brothers in Christ/Messiah/The Anointed ONE & others reading this writing, all of the above mentioned are proof that we are not only living in the last days or latter times, according to Paul or the last hour, as stated by the Apostle John, but we are living in the closing days, the very last biblical minutes of Jesus’ imminent return!   Ephesians 6:12 NASB 1995.  For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the powers, against the world forces of this darkness, against the spiritual forces of wickedness in the heavenly places.   Unfortunately, what we’re seeing in our state, nation and in every country is the spirit of lawlessness, being played out in churches, homes, businesses, government, the media, our education system, within some of our own families, the military, our economy, children and in the streets.  Yes, the battle is in the heavenlies, but it is now, more than ever, being manifested in the flesh, right here on Earth, because of doctrines of demons and doctrines of men, through people who are confessing to be Christians, disciples, believers, followers of Christ, people of The Way, people of The Book, who are not rightfully dividing the word of truth, with Jesus being the centerpiece, but have itching ears and are being tossed to and fro, by every wind of doctrine, in a world that is steeped in sin and darkness, but God is crying out for us to come into His marvelous Light and the earth is groaning for the fullness of redemption to come, for the sons of God to be revealed, so let your Light SHINE!  2 John 1:1-11 – NASB 1995.     Walk According to His Commandments 1 The elder to the chosen lady and her children, whom I love in truth; and not only I, but also all who know the truth, 2 for the sake of the truth which abides in us and will be with us forever: 3 Grace, mercy and peace will be with us, from God the Father and from Jesus Christ, the Son of the Father, in truth and love. 4 I was very glad to find some of your children walking in truth, just as we have received commandment to do from the Father. 5 Now I ask you, lady, not as though I were writing to you a new commandment, but the one which we have had from the beginning, that we love one another. 6 And this is love, that we walk according to His commandments. This is the commandment, just as you have heard from the beginning, that you should walk in it. 7 For many deceivers have gone out into the world, those who do not acknowledge Jesus Christ as coming in the flesh. This is the deceiver and the antichrist. 8 Watch yourselves, that you do not lose what we have accomplished, but that you may receive a full reward. 9 Anyone who goes too far and does not abide in the teaching of Christ, does not have God; the one who abides in the teaching, he has both the Father and the Son. 10 If anyone comes to you and does not bring this teaching, do not receive him into your house, and do not give him a greeting; 11 for the one who gives him a greeting participates in his evil deeds.   John the beloved, believed to have died in Ephesus, after being released from the Isle of Patmos, where he received The Revelation of Jesus Christ, even in his 90’s had such a soft and pliable heart and although he had to be carried to gatherings, because he was so old and weak, whenever he was asked to speak, church historians tell us that he would only say, “Love One Another,” the only ‘New Commandment’ Jesus ever gave! He loved the chosen lady, as referred to in verse one above, nobody knows who this was, but certainly this prophetic, living word still speaks to us today, according to Hebrews 1, to the church, the bride of Christ, whom He loves in the truth, because He is The Truth.  John confirms that Jesus will never leave or forsake us and we are encouraged by Jesus Himself to abide in Him (John 15), to bear good fruit and lasting fruit for His Kingdom.  Who are the little children, we are, children of The Most High God! John’s not writing a New Commandment, but ‘The One,’ which we heard from The Beginning and Jesus Is The Beginning, commanding us to, “Love One Another, Just As I Have Loved You.” He’s given us His Holy Spirit Of Grace and His Mercies are New Every morning, the son shines and the rain rains, on the just and unjust.  The Shalom/Peace Of God passes all of our human understanding! Notice in verse 6 above, He states, “Just As You Have Heard From The Beginning!” Do you have ears to hear what The Holy Spirit Of God is saying to the church today, which He stated to His disciples during the Passover feast, His Last Supper, in the upper room, nearly 2,000 years ago? Be cautious of the deceivers and watch out for the antichrist spirit, because there are wolves in sheep’s clothing out and about, looking for who they may devour! If people try to bring in such evil teachings, as mentioned above, according to God’s Holy & Precious Word, do not receive them; for the one who gives them a greeting participates in their evil deeds.  Our enemy is a hypocrite and was a liar from the beginning, he only seeks to steal, kill and destroy, so don’t play with his fire or you’ll be seriously burned, for he still roams around seeking to devour! Remember, when the enemy comes in – ‘like a flood’ The Holy Spirit Of The LORD sets up a standard (His Banner Over Us Is LOVE/GOD)! God wishes that none would perish and that all would come to repentance, so Let Us Pray for our enemies, those who are held captive by the evil one, the fallen angels and demons of darkness, because Jesus came to set the captives free, so as you celebrate this 249th Declaration of Independence Day this July, remember those who put their life on the line, all the great men and women of faith that have gone on before us, so that you and I could live in the land of the free and the home of the brave.  May God Bless America, from sea to shining sea!
