My Thoughts Wesley Crawford

We’ve Been Hypnotized

Where do we go from here, how do ya disappear
It's hard to see with our old eyes these times, we've been hypnotized
Where do we go from here, how do ya disappear
It's hard to see with our old eyes these lies, we've been hypnotized

I was listening to "Hypnotized", a song by Pillar, they're singing about the majority of the church. People that believe in God, but not the power of God, they call themselves saved. Are they? The verse below gives reason to doubt the salvation of many.

John 10:27 My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me. (ESV)

A phrase I heard as a child, referring to Spiritual things, "Oh, they don't do that anymore". Says who? The things I'm talking about are Spiritual gifts, hearing the Lord's voice, or anything involving the Holy Spirit, like healing, casting out devils, raising the dead, miracles, and more.

How can people, that believe in God and read the Bible, believing it's His infallible Word, not believe everything in it? God spoke Truth in His Word, but man comes along, changes His Word, and teach the lies they've created, and people believe the spoken word of man, over what was spoken by God. Of course, everything God said in the Bible, He said by the mouth of His holy prophets, but if you believe it's His Word, then you need to believe all of it.

The second line in the above lyrics, says, "we've been hypnotized". The majority of the church has been hypnotized, believing lies handed down by the devil himself. People do what everyone else does, thinking, it's OK. They're family and friends do it, and they're good people. People, please wake up and pay attention to what the Word of God says.

Please read His Word and ask the Lord for understanding, so you want be misled, because 1Tim 4:1 says, "Some will depart from the faith, following deceitful spirits and doctrines of demons." (ESV)

Read the New Testament and then look at church today, there are way too many differences. Jesus Christ is our example, the first century church should be our example of how to worship and minister to people. What we've got today is far from what the Lord wants us to have. What He wants from us is like what the first century believer had, for us to live our walk like they did.

Heb 13:8, Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever.

Jesus is God and the verse above says They don't change, this means His Word won't change?
Everything that's in God's Word is true and is for today.
