On August 20, 2024, I was sitting before the Lord and He asked me to read the following Scripture. The Lord then began to speak about a matter that He said grieves Him greatly.
Please read on:
Colossians 2 [1] For I would that ye knew what great conflict I have for you, and for them at Laodicea, and for as many as have not seen my face in the flesh;
[2] That their hearts might be comforted, being knit together in love, and unto all riches of the full assurance of understanding, to the acknowledgement of the mystery of God, and of the Father, and of Christ;
[3] In whom are hid all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge.
[4] And this I say, lest any man should beguile you with enticing words.
[5] For though I be absent in the flesh, yet am I with you in the spirit, joying and beholding your order, and the steadfastness of your faith in Christ.
[6] As ye have therefore received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk ye in him:
[7] Rooted and built up in him, and stablished in the faith, as ye have been taught, abounding therein with thanksgiving.
[8] Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition of men, after the rudiments of the world, and not after Christ.
[9] For in him dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead bodily.
[10] And ye are complete in him, which is the head of all principality and power:
This is what the Lord said: “And yet, man HAS been beguiled. With many enticing words. Who is it that has beguiled? Is it not the serpent who beguiled Eve in the garden?
I Am the Lord your God. I Am the One who placed the sun, moon and stars over the earth. I placed them inside the firmament just as My Word states. (Genesis1:6-17) They are for signs and for seasons. They can not be visited on rockets. They can not be landed upon.
These are the vain philosophies of which I speak in My Word.
Because I knew that men would do this.
I knew they would try to ascend to heaven where I Am.
Vanity of vanities.
The deceiver has deceived all of mankind .
There is not one who was not first deceived. Even the most Godly of men you can think of.
It greatly grieves Me to say this. It greatly grieves Me to watch man, whom I created for fellowship, listen to the voice of the deceiver.
However, it gives Me great joy and pleasure to see that many have seen the error of their ways. Those who will awaken from the lies and deceptions of the enemy will be deceived no more if they will repent and cleave to Me.”
The Lord would have me lay out some things for you to consider:
Colossians 2:[8] Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition of men, after the rudiments of the world, and not after Christ.
Verse 3 of Colossians 2 says “In whom are hid all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge” . In whom? In “God, and of the Father, and of Christ;”
We are told clearly here that the place to go to get wisdom, if we want to know anything, is our Creator God the Father. We are strongly warned that if we go to philosophy, to traditions of men and rudiments of the world, then we shall be SPOILED .
Merriam-Webster Dictionary: spoiled : decay, decompose, rot, putrefy, spoil mean to undergo destructive dissolution. decay implies a slow change from a state of soundness or perfection. Dictionary.com : spoiled : severely damaged or harmed, especially in a way that reduces value, usefulness, excellence, enjoyment, etc.; marred or ruined.
But alas, off we went to the Greeks who did spoil us with their Philosophy: the systematic study of general and fundamental questions concerning topics like existence, reason, knowledge, value, mind, and language. Ancient Greek philosophy arose in the 6th century BC. Philosophy was used to make sense of the world using reason.
The Greeks worshipped many gods. They consulted many gods. They sought wisdom. It is clear that they did not seek wisdom from our Creator God. Indeed, the word philosophy comes from two Greek words: philein and sophia meaning love and wisdom. Sophia (wisdom) was considered by the ancient Greeks to be a female spirit and is one of the central figures of Gnosticism, a Christian philosophical movement with uncertain origins that most likely originated in ancient Rome and Persia.
Colossians 2:8 says don’t be spoiled“after the rudiments of the world”.
Rudiments are (from the Cambridge dictionary) the most basic facts and ideas about a subject or skill. The world is satan’s domain. It is satan who has deceived the whole world. Even the very elect. Rev.12:9 And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world .
Matthew 24:24 For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect.
We are not to be ‘of’ the world. We are not to look to the rudiments of the world.
Romans 12:2 And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God. 3 For I say, through the grace given to me, to everyone who is among you, not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think, but to think soberly, as God has dealt to each one a measure of faith.
We are not to think more highly of ourselves than we ought, as the Greeks did.
The Greeks and Romans have led the world in philosophy and astronomy. These worshippers of Apollo, Zeus, Artemis, Atlas, the sun, moon and stars. Were they not puffed up with their knowledge, thinking much more highly of themselves than they ought?
The Heliocentric (solar) theory comes from these worshippers of many gods. Helios – the sun god. And it IS a theory:
Nicolas Copernicus Admits
That the Movement of the Earth
Can’t Be Proven (Quote)
“The Pythagorean teaching (of heliocentrism) was founded upon
hypothesis and it is not necessary that the hypothesis should be
true, or even probable. The hypothesis of the movement of the
earth is only one which is useful to explain certain phenomena, but
it should not be considered as an absolute truth.”
– Nicolas Copernicus, 1543
In a book called On the Revolutions of the Heavenly Bodies (that was published as
Copernicus lay on his deathbed), Copernicus proposed that the Sun, not the Earth,
was the centre of the Solar System. Such a model is called a heliocentric system.
NASA, who have led the world in space exploits, who claim to have landed on the moon, built a rocket called Jupiter. They mounted space missions named Apollo, Artemis, Atlas and more. These are all of course, the names of Greek gods.
Research reveals that the very founding members of NASA were Nazis, satanists and Freemasons. (Verner Von Braun, Nazi rocket scientist and President Dwight Eisenhower, Freemason to name just two.) NASA with their computer generated images of a Heliocentric universe.
“Shewing great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect.”
I strongly encourage the reader to search these matters out for yourselves. Ask the Lord to help you.
We have been under strong delusion. Satan has deceived the nations.
Ephesians 5:11-14 “Take no part in the unfruitful works of darkness, but instead expose them. For it is shameful even to speak of the things that they do in secret. But when anything is exposed by the light, it becomes visible, for anything that becomes visible is light.”
