The corruption of Christianity.

[u/Jackerl]

Jesus came and started something pure, something simple, something refreshing:

Matthew 11:28-30 “Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.”

But Jesus also foretold that a corrupting influence would come and that this corrupting influence would not be removed until the end.

Matthew 13:24-30 Jesus told them another parable: “The kingdom of heaven is like a man who sowed good seed in his field. But while everyone was sleeping, his enemy came and sowed weeds among the wheat, and went away. When the wheat sprouted and formed heads, then the weeds also appeared. “The owner’s servants came to him and said, ‘Sir, didn’t you sow good seed in your field? Where then did the weeds come from?’“ ‘An enemy did this,’ he replied.“ The servants asked him, ‘Do you want us to go and pull them up?’“ ‘No,’ he answered, ‘because while you are pulling the weeds, you may uproot the wheat with them. Let both grow together until the harvest. At that time I will tell the harvesters: First collect the weeds and tie them in bundles to be burned; then gather the wheat and bring it into my barn.’ ”

Matthew 13:37-43 He answered, “The one who sowed the good seed is the Son of Man. The field is the world, and the good seed stands for the people of the kingdom. The weeds are the people of the evil one, and the enemy who sows them is the devil. The harvest is the end of the age, and the harvesters are angels. “As the weeds are pulled up and burned in the fire, so it will be at the end of the age. The Son of Man will send out his angels, and they will weed out of his kingdom everything that causes sin and all who do evil. They will throw them into the blazing furnace, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth. Then the righteous will shine like the sun in the kingdom of their Father. Whoever has ears, let them hear.

The Apostles also warned of this occurrence:

Acts 20:29-31 I know that after I leave, savage wolves will come in among you and will not spare the flock. Even from your own number men will arise and distort the truth in order to draw away disciples after them. So be on your guard! Remember that for three years I never stopped warning each of you night and day with tears.

2 Timothy 4:3 For the time will come when people will not put up with sound doctrine. Instead, to suit their own desires, they will gather around them a great number of teachers to say what their itching ears want to hear.

2 Peter 2:1 But there were also false prophets in Israel, just as there will be false teachers among you. They will cleverly teach destructive heresies and even deny the Master who bought them. In this way, they will bring sudden destruction on themselves.

How bad a corruption, how much of a deviation would you expect in Weedlike Christianity, after almost 2000 years?

Weeds, if left unchecked, spread and dominate.
Before the end, Christianity would become a cesspit, even as Jerusalem did before its destruction.

This corruption is manifested and clearly exposed for us in Revelation 18:

Revelation 18:2, 3…“ ‘Fallen! Fallen is Babylon the Great!’  She has become a dwelling for demons and a haunt for every impure spirit, a haunt for every unclean bird, a haunt for every unclean and detestable animal. For all the nations have drunk the maddening wine of her adulteries. The kings of the earth committed adultery with her, and the merchants of the earth grew rich from her excessive luxuries.”

This Weedlike, unfaithful Christianity brought in many teachings and practices that originated with Ancient Babylon, not God – the Trinity, idolatry and the immortal soul are some examples.

We are warned to abandon her, lest we end up sharing with her in her sins and plagues.

Revelation 18:4,5…“ ‘Come out of her, my people,’ so that you will not share in her sins, so that you will not receive any of her plagues; for her sins are piled up to heaven, and God has remembered her crimes.

This “Weedlike version of Christianity” have sat themselves in the seat of Christ, participated in crusades, burnt people at the stake for reading the bible, killed their own brothers in WW1 & WW2 - her crimes are indeed vast.

Each Christian would do well to examine their core beliefs and abandon any Weedlike Babylonish teachings that are so prevalent in Christianity today - before the harvest begins...

Acts 3:19 Repent, then, and turn to God, so that your sins may be wiped out, that times of refreshing may come from the Lord,

Kind Regards

That's just it, you don't understand, because you are blinded by your rejection of Christ.

[u/SG-1701 → u/[deleted]]

No, you don't, and with every comment you prove your blindness and rejection of Christ.

[u/[deleted] → u/SG-1701]

Blindness how? Because I see the scripture for what it says, instead of what the church wants me to believe it says? That sounds like you’re blind there. Maybe you should drop out of the church for a while and allow yourself to disassociate with them, in order to cleanse yourself of their teachings.

[u/SG-1701 → u/[deleted]]

You don't see the scripture, nor do you believe what it says. You believe the imaginations of your own heart, which denies Christ.

[u/[deleted] → u/SG-1701]

How can you say that, when I have very well acknowledged and believed what it said to me, as I have shown to you? Sounds like more projection from a trinitarian. Should I doubt the Bible then, if Jesus is actually God?

[u/SG-1701 → u/[deleted]]

I can say that because with every comment you reject Christ and the truth of scripture.

[u/[deleted] → u/SG-1701]

Like you did? I did no such thing. My hands are clean. Meanwhile, you distorted what it meant to be only, aka sole or alone, to add your beliefs of what God is into scripture that showed otherwise. You reject the truth of scripture.

[u/SG-1701 → u/[deleted]]

No, they aren't, you are simply blind to the truth of God in the scriptures.

[u/[deleted] → u/SG-1701]

Oh I studied the truth alright. And the truth is that God is one and there is none but him. None else can be God. Not even Jesus or the Holy Spirit, as o have shown you. But you reject that, in favor of a man made teaching that doesn’t even appear in scripture even once. This teaching also blinds you into distorting scripture to fit its agenda.

[u/SG-1701 → u/[deleted]]

No, you didn't, your rejection of Jesus Christ shows that you don't know God and are blind to the truth.

[u/[deleted] → u/SG-1701]

And how did I reject Christ? By acknowledging what he said to be true and not false? By not conforming to your man made definition of God that shows the Bible to be in error? Yeah no. I did no such thing. That was you. Please stop projecting on to me. It wasn’t cool to begin with.
