Why Does God Allow?...
Posted : 8 Mar, 2011 12:47 AM

When it comes to God's divine plan, will, and purpose, NOTHING JUST HAPPENS.... So, Why do you think God allow false prophets, pastors, and teachers to continue teaching and preaching false doctrines in His name?

Very often while reading some posts in these forums I wonder the same thing. Then I remember what John explained in I John 2:18-19

"Little children, it is the last time: and as ye have heard that antichrist shall come, even now are there many antichrists; whereby we know that it is the last time. (19)They went out from us, but they were not of us; for if they had been of us, they would no doubt have continued with us: but they went out, that they might be made manifest that they were not all of us."

I think what he was saying was when the true and faithful people of God take a stand against false teachers, they shine a spotlight of truth on them, pointing them out for all to see. If it wasn't for the mature, and learned Christians among us, many people, Christians included, would fall victim to these false prophets. When the truth is revealed and these false prophets back track and run away, they show their true motives. They also show that they are not part of God's body, (see I Cor 12), which makes us even stronger as we learn first hand the lengths the devil will go to tarnish the church, and the methods God uses to weed these people out.

Matt 13 vs 27 thru 30,

27: So the servants of the owner came and said to him, sir, did you not sow good seed in your field? How then does it have tares?

28: He said to them, an enemy has done this. The servants said to him, do you want us then to go and gather them up?

29: But he said, no, lest while you gather up the tares you also uproot the wheat with them.

30: Let both grow together until the harvest, and at the time of the harvest I will say to the reapers, first gather together the tares and bind them in bundles to burn them, but gather my wheat into my barn.

False prophets, pastors, teachers and the world in general are part of the ongoing army which rose against King Jehoshaphat in 2 Chronicles 20.

God's reasons for allowing these armies to rise against His people are the same today as they were in generations past - nothing has changed.

God's response to these armies on our behalf has not changed either..."Do not fear or be dismayed because of this great multitude, for the battle is not yours, but God's" - 2 Chronicles 15.

Then as now, God was not interested in hearing "another" battle plan.

He was not interested in His people training harder.



If God's people would have attempted to "make plans" and "train harder", God would have responded with an even "greater" army as He's doing today ;)



God is not interested in us figuring out how to enter the Promise Land / walk on water / do what only He can.



He is interested in us turning to Him with all our hearts, soul and strength, and He is interested in us learning to walk by faith. There is no other way for any of us to enter into the "inward" Promise Land...the Kingdom of God / Christ coming to dwell within us.



God bless

The Parables of the Tares Explained

Matt 13 vs 36 thru 43



This is a literal explanation given by Jesus.

Verse 41: The Son of Man will send out His angels, and they will gather out of His kingdom all things that offend, and those who practice lawlessness.



It is Jesus who removes these people. Why does God allow?

Because Adam ate of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil.

Because he, Satan was given man's dominion, since the father can not lie and take back Adam's dominion that he gave over to satan.



Earthly authority was given to those in a human body on the earth from the beginning, that is why Jesus had to come to the earth in a human body, the second Adam, that he would without sin dominate Satan and in his successful endeavor's and final sacrifice he overcame Satan, that did not redeem the earth only mankind. The authority was then given back to Jesus and at his final resurrection it was given over to the church ( the body of Christ) earth's authority was then given to the physical body of believer's.



Why must we pray?

Why must we tithe?

Why must we watch our mouth?

Why is the church's obedience so important?

Why is it so important that every believer receive the gift of the Holy Ghost?

Why is it so important for every believer to know the will of God in all things.

Why is it so important for the church to understand their redemption?

Why is it so vital to know the fullness of man's salvation?



Because Satan is still God of this world?



You can not overcome satan unless you know the truth!!

PJ, in other words what you are saying is that God has nothign to do with allowing false teachers who teach fales doctrines, and that is all satab, and that God has no control or power over what satan can do or what satan does?

What you are saying is that because satan is the god (Not God with a captial G), but god over the world, God the Father has no power over satan. Is this your speech?
