INDICTING THE HYPOCRITES

INDICTING THE HYPOCRITES
My Dear Precious Child,
    Amidst the parables of Jesus Christ in which He taught about the keys to My Kingdom, He gave a stern indictment to the scribes and Pharisees.  He called them hypocrites and said that they shut up My kingdom of heaven in the faces of people, neither going in themselves nor allowing the people who want to go in to enter.  He said that the scribes and Pharisees travel all over the world making one convert, and then they make him twice as fit for hell as they are.  The people who do not enter into My kingdom of heaven while in the earth will find themselves in the same old hell that they have been in for years when they are loyal to the law- oriented religious and political leaders who are the scribes and Pharisees.  (Matthew 23:13-15)
   Jesus Christ told the scribes and Pharisees that they were blind guides.  He cautioned them about teaching their converts to swear to do something, saying that they should not swear at all, not by the temple, the gold in the temple, the altar of the temple or an offering on the altar.  (Matthew 23:16-19)  He had earlier been emphatic about My children refusing to swear saying, instead, to let your "yes" be "yes," and to let your "no", be "no," or you will be open to condemnation by the devil.  He had said that anything more than yes or no comes from hell. (Matthew 5:33-37)   In saying that, He was letting you know that the devil always tempts you in order to bring you into bondage to him.  If you are not completely truthful in that for which you swear, then you are open to the devil to condemn you in your mind, making you feel guilty.  If you are not able to perform something which you swear to do, you are opening yourself up for temptations to be condemned by the devil for not doing what you swore to do.
   The key to My kingdom of heaven in that teaching by Jesus Christ is that He was saying that the scribes and Pharisees cannot enter into My kingdom of heaven because they are already ruled by the kingdom of hell, and so they keep other people out by loading them down with guilt and condemnation. There is no peace in their lives because of constant condemnation in their thoughts. He warned My children to BEWARE of their words and actions.
   My instructions given through Jesus Christ are so very valuable to My children because it is in keeping them that My children enjoy the benefits that come from being in My kingdom of heaven while they live in the earth because they have avoided the kingdom of hell, as distributed by the scribes and Pharisees.   It is in keeping My valuable instructions that My children experience joy unspeakable.  It is in keeping them that My children enjoy the promises from Me because in keeping them you are keeping faith in Me and have chosen to live in My kingdom of heaven while you live in the earth.
  Another indictment of the scribes and Pharisees from Jesus Christ is that they keep religious laws perfectly of tithing their money and their produce but they neglect the most important things such as seeking justice for people, having mercy for the poor, afflicted people, and teaching their followers to have faith in Me, not in their religious laws.  Their religious laws became their gods instead of Me and My characteristics of love, mercy and peace.  Jssus said they should have performed their tithes but they also should have been loving, merciful and peaceful.  Again He called them blind guides, straining at gnats but swallowing camels. (Matthew 23:23-24)
    In teaching about attitudes, Jesus Christ told the scribes and Pharisees that they cleaned up the outside of themselves, wearing ornate robes with phylacteries of scriptures around their necks, colorful tassels, and taking the front rows in meetings, being greeted with special honor in public and being referred to as Father or Teacher.  Jesus said that they should not allow people to call them by special names, only by their given name, because I am the one and only spiritual Father and Jesus Christ is the only teacher. (Matthew 23;1-12 and 25-26)  It is in their expecting extra honor from people that keeps them out of My kingdom of heaven and causes them to eventually have hell in their lives.  Cleaning up the inside of themselves by getting rid of the demons of exclusion and pride will allow them to enter into My kingdom of heaven because they become servants of people instead of thinking of themselves as above people.
   In further indicting the religious leaders and political leaders, Jesus Christ called them whitewashed tombs that look clean on the outside but the inside is full of the bones of dead people and every kind of corruption.  He said in the same degree of cleanness and honesty that they appear to people, they are an equal degree of hypocrisy and lawlessness on the inside.  They can do nothing else, because the kingdom of hell rules their lives. (Matthew 23:27-28)
   In telling the scribes and Pharisees that their insides are littered with the bones of dead people, Jesus was telling them that their unmerciful condemnation and judgments of people had caused the poor, afflicted, diseased, brokenhearted people to perish in their own sins instead of being relieved of their poverty, their diseases, their mental distress and forgiven of their sins which was the scribes' and Pharisee's duties as public servants to do. 
   Thus is the reason for Jesus Christ's warning to My children to BEWARE of the leaven, or the words and actions, of the scribes and Pharisees, those being their words, doctrines or laws, because if you bind yourself in loyalty to the attitudes, words and actions of the religious law-oriented leaders and politicians, you are binding yourself to the bones of the dead people and every kind of corruption of their actions in their religious and political duties. (Luke 20:46-47; Matthew 16:11-12; Mark 8:15; Mark 12:38-40; Luke 12:21)  You will receive their rewards from hell in some way because you have honored them even in their corruption and hypocrisy. 
   I said that I would give you the keys to My kingdom and that to which you are bound on earth in loyalty or affection you are bound to the same spirits in the heavens.  When you are bound only to My words and actions, you are bound to Me and My angels and My glorious activities in My heaven, inheriting My kingdom in your life on earth.  When you are bound to the words and actions of religiously rule-oriented religious leaders and politicians, you are bound to the demons who motivate them in the kingdom of hell to which they are affililated and you will inherit the same works of the demons into your life on earth. (Matthew 18:16-19)
   I spoke to you many, many times about this matter through Jesus Christ and through the prophets.  I warned the children of Israel and they refused to listen.  They continued to give homage to corrupt, unmerciful religious and political leaders and were led to destruction, as is the devil's desire in your earth.
   You must pay heed to My warnings and beware of the religious and political leaders of your day.  Do not bind yourself in loyalty or affection to their evil attitudes, words or actions or you will bind yourself to their rewards from the kingdom of hell.  This is the truth of Jesus Christ's teaching of binding and loosing.  When you loose yourselves from their words, you loose yourself from the curses of the demons in the kingdom of hell. 
   If this were not true, I would not have warned My children time and time again.  Because of your religious and political traditions you have bound yourself to the demons who motivate their leaders and you have failed to thrive in your lives on earth.  You have inherited curses instead of blessings.
   I am your Father.  Being yoked to Me brings peace to every area of your life.  Keep these warnings in your mind until you break every yoke to religious and political leaders who add burdens to the backs of people instead of relieving them of their burdens.  (Matthew 11:29)        
   When you become loyal with affection to My words to you as much as you are loyal with affection to the religious and political leaders of your time, you will shed one of the heaviest burdens that the devil has placed on My children which is to make them think they have to be loyal to their leaders or be called unpatriotic.  I said the opposite is true.  Loyalty to Me and My words is true spiritual patriotism.
   Whose words are important to you, My words or the devil's words through political and religious leaders?  Having heaven on earth is the result of choosing for My words to be your Lord.  (II Corinthians 3:17)  In rejecting the words and doctrines of the religiously law-oriented leaders and politicians and instead honoring My words to you will cause My kingdom of heaven to flood into your life with blessings so numerous you cannot contain them.
  I am your Father.  Honor My Fatherly warnings to you if you love Me. (John 14;21-24)
  Your Father of Wise Counsel
