The increase in false teaching is becoming so great I can hardly stand it. Within the last three days alone we have posted articles concerning some of these false teachings. One of them was an article about a Biblical scholar who said, God can lead us into temptation.
If you have not done so, read that article for perspective and then continue here.
Please turn your Bible with me to,
Jeremiah 23:29
Is not my word like as a fire? saith the LORD; and like a hammer that breaketh the rock in pieces?
Of course, His Word is like fire, and that is how our Father will destroy this present age we find ourselves in, (2 Peter 3:7).
I want you to read very closely.
When so-called “Bible scholars,” tell us God leads us into temptation, they are saying He is placing the burden of temptation on our shoulders. As I pointed out in that article, James 1:13 documents that God does not lead us into temptation, He does not tempt us..
Now let us continue the thought.
Jeremiah 23:30
Therefore, behold, I am against the prophets, saith the LORD, that steal my words every one from his neighbour.
God is against who?
- The tax collectors?
- The politicians?
He, our Heavenly Father is against the so-called “prophets” that steal His Words from the people.
God is against Bible teachers who take the truth away from the people. Read carefully, this is extremely important.
This word “prophet” is Strong’s word H5030 and it means,
A prophet or (generally) inspired man: – prophecy, that prophesy, prophet.
“Inspired men that prophesy”.
Obviously, they are not inspired by God, so who exactly inspired them?
Paul tells us in 2 Corinthians 11:3 there are “false apostles, deceitful workers” who ‘transform themselves into the apostles of Christ.’
This word “transform” is Strong’s G3345 and it means, “disguise“. These “false apostles, deceitful workers,” these so-called Bible scholars and teachers “disguise” themselves as apostles of Christ.
They claim to be sent from God, but He did not send them.
Jeremiah 23:31
Behold, I am against the prophets, saith the LORD, that use their tongues, and say, He saith.
Your Father is against these “prophets” these “false apostles”, He is against these Bible teachers that use their mouth to say, ‘God said this, God said that, God said He leads us into temptation’.
They are liars! They are false teachers who appear to be teachers of light, but there is no truth in them!

Jeremiah 23:32
Behold, I am against them that prophesy false dreams, saith the LORD, and do tell them, and cause my people to err by their lies, and by their lightness; yet I sent them not, nor commanded them: therefore they shall not profit this people at all, saith the LORD.
God, our Heavenly Father is against these liars that have false dreams and cause the people to error.
God did not send them, God did not command them!
Do you understand what God is telling you?
He is telling you, there are lying sacks in the world claiming to be teachers of God. They claim to bring God’s Word forward, instead, they bring forward a lie distorting the Truth.
Jeremiah 23:33
And when this people, or the prophet, or a priest, shall ask thee, saying, What is the burden of the LORD? thou shalt then say unto them, What burden? I will even forsake you, saith the LORD.
These liars who call themselves “scholars” of the Word, who call themselves “priests” and “prophets” will even tell you that God brings a burden on you, they will tell you God brings temptation on you, but they are lying to you.
God did not send them, God did not tell them and God is against them.
You are supposed to recognize that as verse 33 just explained.
Read and learn.
Jeremiah 23:34
And as for the prophet, and the priest, and the people, that shall say, The burden of the LORD, I will even punish that man and his house.
Those who claim to be doing God’s Work and are lying to the people are going to be punished by God.
Why?
They did not bring His Message forward. They are lying to the people.
Jeremiah 23:35-36
35 Thus shall ye say every one to his neighbour, and every one to his brother, What hath the LORD answered? and, What hath the LORD spoken?36 And the burden of the LORD shall ye mention no more: for every man’s word shall be his burden; for ye have perverted the words of the living God, of the LORD of hosts our God.
They, the so-called “scholars” of the Word, the “priests” have “perverted the words of the living God”.
God did not say the politicians did it. He said the Bible teachers did it.
Jeremiah 23:39-40
39 Therefore, behold, I, even I, will utterly forget you, and I will forsake you, and the city that I gave you and your fathers, and cast you out of my presence.40 And I will bring an everlasting reproach upon you, and a perpetual shame, which shall not be forgotten.
How much more proof do you need?
God is telling you plainly, there are liars in the world who are distorting His Word. They claim to be scholars of the Word, they claim to be Bible teachers, but they are lying filth. They are leading you astray and the hour is growing very late.
Wake up people, turn from the ways of the world, turn from false teaching and open the Book and read it.
Turn from Babylon or you will certainly meet her fate, (Revelation 18:1-5).
