SUBTLE DIVERSION
OF THE GOSPEL:
By Prof Ben Onyeukwu
By way of a simple citation, the "Gospel Commission" is just the LORD'S directive, urging His people to,..."go into all the world and preach the gospel to every creature, in which, HE said,...he who believes and is baptized will be saved; but he who does not believe will be condemned".
Pointedly, the Scripture in focus, does not cite the COMMISSION as saying, "go into the world and pray", or "go into the world and interpret dreams", nor does is say, "go into the world and make people millionaires, or declare prayers of faith, for economic breakthrough, just as it is not a well list of articulated principles put in place to help one attain success. Furthermore, the Scripture under review, does not trace the "so called" Family Liberation Prayer or the New Month Faith Declaration prayer, as part of the items in the menu of the Gospel Commission, but just said, "go into the world, and preach the gospel to every creature"...
But, unfortunately, some hirelings and mindless wolves are, in today's world subtly diverting the attention of the gullible and unsuspecting members of the human society, from the truth of the Gospel of JESUS CHRIST, to empty pep talks, which promise them perishable worldly wealth and opportunities, instead of the WORD OF ETERNAL LIFE, which is the core message of the gospel. This, informs the basic reasons why from the pulpits and social media handles, of such ever-increasing demonically covenanted preachers, drafted by hell to destroy the redemptive work of CHRIST, come unrelented vibrations of adulterated gospel talks, with topics like, "GOD IS SENDING YOU A DESTINY HELPER", "TOMORROW IS YOUR DAY FOR AWESOME BANK ALERT", "WITHIN TWO DAYS, SOMEONE IS COMING TO BUILD YOU A MANSION", YOUR VISA WILL BE READY BY NEXT WEEK, and stuff like these, that have nothing to do with the gospel message, which urges everyone to,..."seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to them".
For your information,..."God has given us eternal life, and this life is in His Son. He who has the Son has life; he who does not have the Son of God does not have life" So, any gospel that is not genuinely centered on the ETERNAL LIFE which JESUS CHRIST alone gives, is a subtle diversion of the gospel, which Satan is the mastermind. REPENT AND BELIEVE THE GOSPEL! (See Mark 16:15-16, Matthew 6:33 and 1 John 5:11-12).
