PERPETUATING AN INSTITUTION
My Dear Precious Child,
The father of your country warned against politicians separating into two factions, warning that in the future the people in each faction's political beliefs would exist for the perpetuation of their party instead of existing to further the good of the country. (google George Washington's final speech) That president prophesied the future because that division and strife has persisted in your country and other democracies for years. Each party has persisted in producing a demagogue who leads the country by exploiting emotions, prejudice and ignorance, whipping up the passions of crowds of people emotionally which shuts down deliberate reasoning of the crowds because extreme emotions shut down My divine reasoning in the minds of My children. Those demagogues in politics overlook vital issues in governing and use emotional oratory, flattery and abusive, toxic words in order to perpetuate his or her partisan politics. The necessary issues confronting the country become ignored behind the politician's emotional promises rather than his promoting the stable reasoning of the public concerning vital issues.
The demagogue arouses racial, religious and class prejudices, lusting for power in order to master the masses of people. They have existed and ruled democratic countries since ancient civilizations, the demons behind them having entered the earth in the garden of Eden. The problem is that demagogues promote the end of the original ideology behind democracy which is the power being in the people instead of in one man's demonic emotional power, the demagogue having been given his power by people who appeal to the lowest common denominator in a large section of the population of a democracy. Demagogues usually advocate forceful action against people who oppose him, always accusing his moderate and reasoning opponents of weakness and disloyalty in an effort to gain the support of power-seeking proponents of his emotional appeals.
As a result, democracy loses its ideology of being a government of the people, by the people and for the people and becomes an avenue for one man's domination of the people, which was the demagogue's original reason for seeking office, which is power and control. (google the word "demagogue")
The same thing happens in religion. When religion becomes organized it attracts the same demons into the organized institution because the organization is composed of many individuals who can be negatively influenced by the devil and his demons through one person's deception. Instead of the demons only trying to influence one person by deception, they have a crowd of organized people to influence through the institution of the leader of the church. All the demons have to do is to influence the head of the organized church and those demons have multiple people influenced with lies about My character or other deceptions. The leader of the church will eventually be deceived by being influenced by the devil to instill fear of Me into his congregation by teaching the old covenant laws instead of teaching My forgiveness and mercy for lawbreakers.
Many leaders of the first Christian churches became influenced by those false prophets into returning to the religious laws perpetuated by those demagogues instead of the individuals in the church having a close, intimate relationship with Me and with My Holy Spirit by Jesus Christ being their Lord and Savior instead of relying on the old, ineffective religious laws for their salvation.
The letter from the apostle Paul to the Romans confronted that heresy of combining the old covenant laws with the grace of having My Holy Spirit become their individual Guide. Some of Paul's church members had been influenced by false prophets to again trust in those old laws of sin and death to be their conscience, setting aside the Holy Spirit's guide as their conscience. That marriage between the old covenant laws and My grace produced idolatry and deceptions, causing a falling away from Me by the masses. The false prophets used emotional, passionate persuasions to deceive people into thinking that they needed to join their new life of faith with the old ineffective laws which they had previously rejected as being spiritually powerless after they were born of My Holy Spirit and baptized in My Holy Spirit. Before being baptized in My Holy Spirit they had previously experienced the judgment and condemnation that the devil had heaped upon them from the religious and political leaders by using the religious laws. I never meant that to happen when I used the original commandments to identify the devil's temptations in order for the people to reject the temptations. Yet the demagogues in the religious and political community used the emotion of fear to jerk My children right back into guilt and condemnation by the devil by enticing them to return to the old Mosaic law as a means of salvation. (I Corinthians 15:56; Romans 8:1-9)
The danger of religious institutions, as well as political factions, is that the perpetuation of the existence of the individual Christian denominations become the focus of My children's attention rather than the perpetuation of My children individually having a loving, personal, rewarding, faith and grace filled relationship with Me. That is how the devil uses the institution to divert the attention of My children from Me and onto the perpetuation of the institution, so that he can pollute the minds of a larger group of people at the same time if the head of the institution becomes deceived.
Your becoming fruit inspectors of leaders of religious and political groups is what I told you to be. (Galatians 5:16-25) I gave you that command so that you will not be deceived. Anyone who does not speak loving, kind words of unity is not of My flock.
Your Father of Love
