from Jesus:
The complete segment from
Matthew is:
15 ¶ Beware
of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly
they are ravening wolves.
16 Ye shall know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes of thorns,
or figs of thistles?
17 Even so every good tree bringeth forth good fruit; but a corrupt
tree bringeth forth evil fruit.
18 A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither [can] a corrupt
tree bring forth good fruit.
19 Every tree that bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and
cast into the fire.
20 Wherefore by their fruits ye shall know them.
21 ¶ Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter
into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father
which is in heaven.
22 Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied
in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name
done many wonderful works?
23 And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from
me, ye that work iniquity.
The simply answer to your
question of whether these people are priests and Christians is yes and
no. These people are the false prophets that can be found in any religion
or in no religion, including the political establishments, the scientific
establishments, the educational establishments and the media establishments
of the world.
These are their self-professed prophets who are leading people astray
by doctrines dogmas and theories that did not come from the Ascended
Host. These people are not concerned about giving you teachings that
are based on the reality, the truth and the will of God. They give you
teachings that spring from the relativity of the carnal mind and therefore
are out of alignment with truth. Such teachings seek to justify the
will of man and ignore, deny or explain away the will of God.
Many of these false prophets are disguised as religious or spiritual
leaders or gurus. In fact, you can find a number of them in orthodox
Christian churches. Outwardly they seem to be like the lambs of God
because they say all the right things and do all the right things. Some
of them have even taken heaven by force and are able to perform certain
feats that people might interpret as miracles.
As I say, you can know them only by their fruits. Yet their fruits are
not simply their outer actions. In today’s age, people are ready
for a higher understanding of my statements in Matthew. In reality,
a person’s fruits is his or her state of consciousness, or the
quality of the heart. Remember the statement that as a man thinks in
his heart, so is he. The real question is whether the person is manifesting
Christ consciousness or is acting from the human consciousness, the
carnal mind.
This can be determined only by a person who uses his or her intuitive
faculties and therefore attains insights from the Christ self. As the
old saying goes, it takes one to know one. If you strive to build attunement
with your Christ self, as I explain on this website, you can come
to know the false prophets. You will see through them by reading the
vibration of their hearts, and in that respect the most important concern
is whether these people have love or whether they have fear or anger.
Many of the false prophets profess to be doing God’s work, yet
they either fear God or are angry at God. When you develop Christ discernment,
you will also be able to evaluate whether the teachings given by such
false prophets are true or whether they represent a misinterpretation
of the true spiritual teachings of the Ascended Host.
If you do not have Christ discernment, you are easily fooled by these
false prophets. The reason being that they often do everything right
according to the outer rules. They are like the lawyers that I denounced,
and they know the letter of the law but have not the spirit of the law.
If you do not yet have Christ discernment, then your best defense is
to consider whether these people are seeking to set you free by preaching
a message of love or whether they are seeking to control you by preaching
a message of fear.
I can tell you with absolute certainty that I came to set people free
and the key to your spiritual freedom is to receive the perfect love
of God which will cast out all human fear. Therefore, any preacher who
preaches a fear-based message or seeks to control people through fear
simply cannot be in complete alignment with me and with my true mission.
I am not thereby saying that any preacher who preaches a fear-based
message is deliberately a false prophet. The reason being that Christianity
has for so long been dominated by a fear-based message, and there are
truly many well-meaning preachers who preach such a message without
knowing what they are doing. This does not necessarily make them false
prophets, although they are acting as false prophets and serving the
cause of those who are deliberately trying to lead people astray. However,
these preachers have good intentions and are not knowingly or deliberately
deceiving people. They believe in their message, and therefore they
are the blind leaders.
It is correct that the Bible labels false prophets as evildoers. The
original false prophet was Lucifer himself, and what made him a false
prophets is that he deliberately, knowingly and willfully rebelled against
God and God’s purpose for creation. Lucifer then decided that
he would separate himself out from God and create a world in which God
is not present and in which God’s law and will is not followed.
Therefore, Lucifer was trying to prove that he could create a world
that was based on his will instead of the will of God. Lucifer was trying
to prove God wrong.
All of the evildoers and the false prophets that have ever come to planet
Earth were either followers of Lucifer or they had rebelled against
God for other reasons. Therefore, they have the same goal, namely to
turn this planet into a planet where God is not worshiped and not even
known. This then is the essence of their message. They seek to promote
a message that says that God does not exist, such a scientific materialism,
or they promote a false message about God.
Throughout this website, I talk about the way that seems right unto
a man. The essence of this false message is that God is not here on
Earth, that he is somewhere else and that you have no direct connection
to God. Therefore, God cannot act through you as God acted through Jesus
Christ. Jesus was an exception and he is the only one who can do this.
This is the essence of their false message. It is designed to prevent
the souls on Earth from realizing that they are sons and daughters of
God, to prevent them from acting as sons and daughters of God, and thereby
to prevent them from bringing God’s kingdom to Earth and proving
the false teachers wrong.
