HOW TO SPOT A DIABOLICAL PASTOR.

HOW TO SPOT A DIABOLICAL PASTOR.
(By Latunde Akin)
It is alarming the rate at which even many pastors patronize secretly demon worshipers for power,fame and wealth.
Yes,I am a missionary too,but recently I have become so careful of myself as well. How I relate and live my life.
You can imagine a supposed pastor getting caught with juju? Not even pastor from churches where they do mystical preparations in disguise that it is herbal mixture.or prayer mixture.
You see,I am even talking of pastors from Pentecostal holiness,who appear so holy outwardly, and speak in tongues violently. You will be surprised many have gone astray secretly but are only using sound doctrine to cover up.
Recently I discovered people in holiness penticostal churches,I mean workers and ministers who patronizes traditional priests and still come to sing and preach on pulpit. What about many who we expected are believers in Christ who still patronizes celestial or white garment mystical practices. Pathetic!
How do we get here for Christ sake? Is there no balm in Gilead again?
Yes,we will all face trials. Even those traditional or diabolical people they run to also face their own trials. But,if we had experienced the truth and know that God is real,why can't we genuinely wait on Him? Oh,we are in hurry to have good things of life? So we have to deny the efficacy of God's power by circumventing process for quick solutions.
1. When you begin to get tired within you about a particular person who calls himself pastor. It is a sign for two things. Either God is telling you to be careful or Satan is throwing the arrow of tiredness so you won't get blessed again. At this point,pause and logically analyze the person's attitude, you will know something to do quickly through the analysis.
2. The word of God,is the basis for everything a genuine man of God does. If he tells you to read the scriptures yourself on something, and not that he wants to do it for you. Be good. Nobody should read anything at your back. Jesus died and Temple curtain was split opened. We all have access to Him and anyone trying to cover this must be suspected.
3. You noticed that the pastor is clearly and secretly committing sins. That is an indication that he is servicing a demonic altar. Get me right,a genuine man can fall,but he won't continue to fall every time. I have had situations where I fell,oh a blatant falling sef, and humbly I rose from it and went back to Calvary. Not doing God's work at the expense of my soul.
4. When you begin to notice a pastor is begining to own you. Loyalty aside,you can be loyal to someone who doesn't have entitlement mentality. But if he's beginning to have entitlement mentality,I advise you to watchout for diabolical traits.
5. Brainwashing could be diabolical and it might not. When you are being taught the scriptures verbatim with enforcement like a robot. It means the HOLY Spirit is not around. When they are beginning to psychologically enforce knowledge,demons are around the corner.
6. Manipulations to donate money is a diabolical sign in such environment. When prosperity teachings dominate more than the teachings on Christian experiences. It is a sign you are in a diabolical system.
7. This is for those who have spiritual eyes. Because many things you won't even see outwardly wrong. But God will open your eyes to see it so that you can be extra careful not to talk anyhow or live carelessly. Not to ever castigate them,but to intercede profusely so God may purge the system.
Be a genuine believer please. You may not be perfect. Yes I am not perfect as well,but I strive to become like my Lord as I look at Him day after day. I have had situations where I happened to be tempted as well,but Christ comes to help my decision. Oh it has even happened that I found myself in a situation I never bargained and my sincererity saw me through. Oh how sweet is it, when our heart isn't harden against brokenness. When we can cry unto God for a total restoration and turn around for good. When we can approach Calvary afresh and obtain mercy at the throne of grace.
If you have been hooked, today the Lord is setting you free in Jesus name. Amen.
God bless us.
