Time Travelers – Part 2
Jesus Christ
is the same yesterday, today, and forever. Do not be carried about with various
and strange doctrines. - Hebrews 13:8-9 NKJV.
But I fear, lest somehow, as the serpent deceived Eve by his craftiness, so
your minds may be corrupted from the simplicity that is in Christ. For if he
who comes preaches another Jesus whom we have not preached, or if you receive a
different spirit which you have not received, or a different gospel which you
have not accepted - you may well put up with it! - 2 Corinthians 11:3-4 NKJV.
Yesterday, I shared with you the 1928 Charlie Chaplin silent film clip
that appears to show an older woman talking on a cell phone. There are many
reasonable explanations for what is seen; including, that the woman is simply
shielding her face from the sun with something. With our modern mindsets we
immediately jump to the conclusion that it looks like a cellphone. Here is the
link to the youtube video again: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DF8WF3vGUn8
What if, the leaders of our country suddenly appeared on TV with someone
who claimed to be a time traveler from the future? Would we believe it? What
if, someone appears on the world stage claiming to be an alien from another
planet with advanced technology demanding that we worship and obey them? Would
we believe it, and do it? Here are a few things that some people say they
believe:
>Extra Terrestrial powers are observing our planet and they will
intervene in 2012 and save us from self-destruction.
>Jose Arguelles, the founder of Earth Day in 1970, “feels” that we are traveling through a Galactic Synchronization
Beam which we entered in 3114 B.C. and will leave in 2012.
>Some believe that the Galactic Synchronization Beam will affect our
DNA, zapping it, and we will be born again.
>Believers in the Galactic Synchronization Beam of 2012 teach that
everyone goes to heaven because there is no sin, only a failure of
synchronicity with your higher self.
The crazy things that people will believe; could and have filled up
volumes of books. Do we believe in something just because someone "feels"
we are going through some kind of beam? Do we believe in something just because
someone thinks it would be great if the cosmos were to operate according to the
rules that they happen to dream up?
When anyone claims they have heard some magnificent new truth from a time
traveler, or an alien, or in a dream, or that they just feel this to be true - BEWARE! We do not need a new truth, or a new
feeling, or a better synchronicity. We have the Word of God.
Jesus says this, “Do not think that I came to destroy the Law or the Prophets.
I did not come to destroy but to fulfill. For assuredly, I say to you, till
heaven and earth pass away, one jot or one tittle will by no means pass from
the law till all is fulfilled (Matthew 5:17-18).” Jesus is
the Word of God become flesh (John 1:14)
and He is unchanging (Hebrews 13:8).
When they tell you their lies and attempt to deceive you; open up the Word of God and share
the unchanging truth. The truth of the Word of God
will overcome as the Bible says in Isaiah 55:11, “So shall My
word be that goes forth from My mouth; it shall not return to Me void, but it
shall accomplish what I please, and it shall prosper in the thing for which I
sent it.” The Word of God will win the battle because, “...the word
of God is living and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing
even to the division of soul and spirit, and of joints and marrow, and is a
discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart (Hebrews 4:12).”
We must remember that, “Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever.” His Word
does not lie, it does not change, and He (The Word become flesh - John 1:14)
will win the final and eternal victory.
