Praise Jesus today, everyone. The true body of Christ, HIS true church, any true gathering of Christians; It is not manipulative; It is not about getting people's money; it is not about forcing people into your cult or into your church group and trying to scare them that if they leave they won't be able to make it in heaven because they’re not connected to you. It is sad that most Christian organizations and groups, they manipulate their flock. They make them feel guilty if they don't pay tithes. They say, “you have to pay tithes to honor God, and you better pay tithes to our organization, our group. And if you're not giving enough money, it's because you have a problem. You don't have enough faith.” The real body of Christ is not asking anybody for money like that. They're not manipulating people or fleecing the flock. They don't go around begging for money because as the children of God, we know that our Father in heaven has all things, and all we have to do is ask. We don't have to beg the world for money. And we certainly don't have to beg other people, other Christians, trying to manipulate them and make them feel guilty. That's just of the devil. It is sad that a lot of Christians who do have a good heart, are manipulated and controlled and made to feel guilty by other Christians, especially those in church groups and in fellowship groups. These groups operate very much as a cult. Whether they are considered a cult or not, I don't know, but they operate like that. They are a miniature culture that operates apart from the rest of the world. And they will try to control you. That's why it's so critical that we come into the fold of Jesus Christ and not someone else’s fold. Jesus even talked about this, how everyone else who is a shepherd is as a thief or a robber. They don't care about the sheep. Jesus says that they are hirelings, but when a wolf comes, they run away because they don't care about you. They care out their own interests. They care to make money to secure their own future. They care to look good, whether it is in their own church organization or on the Internet. They want themselves to have a good name, but they don't care about you. As long as you're a warm body in a chair in their church, or you are a number or a statistic on their Youtube, they enjoy that, because it gives them a sense of power. Christians for years have used the Bible as a form of witchcraft to try to make you feel guilty about not attending their fellowship. The main one verse they use is that Hebrews chapter 10 verse 25 that says, “Don't give up the gathering of ourselves together, as is the habit of some.” It's really sad because it is true that we should encourage one another as the body of Christ. We should love one another as the body of Christ. But we should never use the Bible to try to manipulate others for our own advantage. And that is exactly what these false churches, false fellowships and false Christians have been doing. Just imagine if you were a bar, you could use this same verse, quote a little bit of scripture to people that are coming to your pub, and you could tell them that if they don't come back and drink alcohol from you, then they're giving up the fellowship and they're denying God and they need to buy that alcohol from you. That is essentially what the church pastors and these organizations are doing. They're telling people that basically they will shrivel up and die and go to hell if they're not a part of their organization, as if their organization is the body of Christ and it is Jesus. Watch out for these false organizations. These men will try to manipulate you and your family. The true body of Christ will never do that. They will not make you feel guilty for not getting together with them once a week or once a month or once a year. They will tell you,  you have to be LED by the Holy Spirit and rather you have to be hearing from God. They will never say you have to come listen to me preach; you have to give me 10% of your income; you have to raise your children in my church. They would never say anything like that, ever. Because the true body of Christ has love in their hearts and they want the very best thing for you. They want Jesus Christ in your heart. They want your Father in heaven to lead you, so they constantly will be pointing you to Jesus Christ, not their organization, not giving them money, not trying to suck you into their religion. That is all a form of witchcraft. Witches are practicing that exact same kind of craft, trying to manipulate people to fall into love, trying to manipulate people to get your money. The world has done this sort of thing for years, and it's just a shame that Christians are acting like the world, trying to manipulate and control the flock. The flock belongs to God. Jesus Christ is the true shepherd, and He loves His flock. He will never leave them. He will never forsake them. He will leave the 99 that are false believers to go fetch the one who truly wants Him. But He will never leave YOU. He will never leave your side. He will always speak to you and guide you. You're not going to shrivel up and die because you leave a false fellowship. God knows your heart. And if your money and all of your life is dedicated to Him, He's not thinking “but you're not tithing now to the Baptist church. I don't think you're loyal because you're not tithing to the Baptist church.” That is manipulation. Don't let these false Christians and false organizations have any power or say in your life. I encourage you to disconnect from them, sever yourself from false religion and false brothers and cult groups, and organizations that try to manipulate you for your money, your time and your family. Be separate, because Jesus wants you in His fold. He will lead you. He will guide you. He will hold you accountable. I am not part of any organized church group. I am accountable to the Holy Spirit and I'm much more accountable to the Holy Spirit than I ever was with a church group, or a set of peers who would daily critique me, church meetings, all of those diaconate meetings. They think that they can hold people accountable to get to heaven by their religion. And it just won't work because they don't have the Holy Spirit of God in their life. So don't let these organizations manipulate you with a certain Bible verse, or with persuasive words. Don't let them manipulate you playing on your emotions. But rather depart from dead religion, depart from falsehood, depart from lies, and walk towards Jesus Christ, who loves you, who cares for your soul, and wants you to have everlasting life in Him. May the grace of Jesus be with you.
