BECOME A WISE WATCHMAN

My Dear Precious Child,
    You must become a watchman, always keeping vigil so as to recognize evil when it presents itself in your mind through temptations to judge, condemn, yield to anger, and other urges from hell, and also be a watchman when it is resident in false prophets. (Isaiah 21:6; Psalm 127:1)  If you don't know the difference between good and evil, you will unfortunately call evil as good and good as evil just because the demonic wolves come in religious sheep's clothing.  Evil spirits never call themselves evil.  They always identify themselves as My children, invading entire churches and even nations that call themselves by My name.  The false prophets tout My name and deceive even the elect. 
   If you remember, Peter, who walked with Jesus and traveled with Him for three years, saw Jesus crucified, observed Him when He appeared to Peter and the other disciples when He was resurrected from the dead.  Plus, Peter was a primary leader when My Holy Spirit landed upon the people waiting for My promise of the Holy Spirit, and Peter spoke to the crowd about the wonder of the kingdom of God when it came upon them in the upper room and they all started prophesying in My heavenly language.  Yet, later Peter was deceived by false Jewish prophets who convinced him that men of the new covenant of the Holy Spirit must also be circumcised physically, resurrecting the old law of sin and death in their lives which brought condemnation and death to the people if they continued mixing the two covenants.  In other words, those men placed themselves and their families back under the devil's rule and domination as their father instead of their continuing in the freedom found in My new covenant with Jesus Christ as their savior, the Holy Spirit as their Guide and with Me as their Father.
   The prophet Paul later called Peter to task for leading the churches into
bondage again to the political/religious Jewish laws and thus the devil's judgment and condemnation.  Paul wrote to the Galatians asking who had bewitched them or tricked them. (Galatians 3:1-5)  He reiterated to them that the reason for the Jewish law was to identify sins and the devil's temptation to sin, but the political/religious rulers had enticed them through Peter to return to trusting in the law for salvation while knowing that no one could keep all of the laws.(Galatians 3:19-22)  He also reminded them that only faith in Jesus Christ could qualify them for the kingdom of God to enter into their lives on earth through their being born of My Holy Spirit and baptized in My Holy Spirit. (Galatians 4:3-7)
   Peter repented and turned from mixing darkness together with his new life of walking in My Light.  Paul was a good watchman, well equipped to identify the evil that had deceived Peter.  They made peace between themselves, but Paul's revelations and insights completely out shined Peter's.  I do not love Paul better than Peter.  Of course not.  Paul's life in My new covenant of the Holy Spirit was more victorious while he lived in the world because he spent three years alone with Me after His being born of My Spirit and baptized in My Holy Spirit as he was taught directly by My Holy Spirit.  He could discern good from evil efficiently.
    Don't be deceived into thinking that loving others means that you should not recognize when deception has entered into some teachings of previously good teachers.  The devil never gives up on his desire to poison My family.  If he can't keep you from being born of My Holy Spirit and baptized in My Holy Spirit, he will pollute the teachings of a prophet in order to deceive the masses and deceive you into placing your trust in man made doctrines which glorify money, national pride and people of political/religious positions instead of your being led by My Spirit and your learning My pure, unadulterated truths through Him.  Paul chided Peter for his preferRing to meet with Jewish leaders who enjoyed the laws instead of meeting with Gentile believers who never had the written laws.  Paul was concerned that Peter was going to allow Jewish false prophets to pollute the gospel of Jesus Christ in believers. (Galatians 2:11-21)
   Never let your guard down.  You must discern between truth and lies, between faith in Jesus Christ and faith in religious laws which have no power to lead you into all truth. (John 16:13) 
   Your Father of Pure Truths
