The Holy Bible warns about phony religions, fake prophets, and false gods popping up and leading Christians away from the truth. Too often and in too many places, it has been considered
politically or socially correct to allow these counterfeit religions (who offer only dead prophets, bogus idols, and false teachings from the devil/satan) to speak freely and loudly. This comes from an evil place to try to convert people to a religion founded on lies or hate. Let it be clear that any religion that teaches sacrificing babies, raping women and children, burning property, or killing anyone who disagrees with their hateful message is not from God. God is love, but we are also warned He is jealous and can become angry with nations when His people are deceived into pulling away from Him. Only satan/devil and his demons/minions push
hate, lawlessness, violence, evil, and phony religions. Satan wishes to trap many people in
Hell. Whereas, God does not want people to go there.
But there were also false prophets among the people,
just as there will be false teachers among you.
They will secretly introduce destructive heresies,
even denying the sovereign Lord who bought them
bringing swift destruction on themselves.
- 2 Peter 2:1 (NIV)
The truth is there is one loving God which is our Father in Heaven. He gave His son Jesus Christ to die and absolve those that believe from sin. God did this to provide a path to Heaven for any of mankind who whould believe and faithfully follow. He also sent the Holy Spirit after Christ to lead and guide faithful believers to more closely know Him, feel His love for them, and show them His will. Jesus emphasized God's love when He pointed out that God should be first in Christians' life per the Ten Commandments, then love and respect for other people and follow related laws was the way to show they are part of that loveing God's plan. Jesus, the prophets from the Bible, and the apostles warn Christians that false gods, fake prophets and phony religions will come to try to lead them away to following false gods. Do not let that happen by staying faithful in prayer, reading the Bible, and attending a church that teaches the full gospel truth of the Bible.
It is the Lord your God you must follow, and him you must revere.
Keep his commands and obey him; serve him and hold fast to him.
- Deuteronomy 13:4 (NIV)
