Do people have the Spirit of Jesus or of the Accuser…?

Do people have the Spirit of Jesus or of the Accuser…?

 

Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves. Ye shall know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles? Even so every good tree bringeth forth good fruit; but a corrupt tree bringeth forth evil fruit. A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit. Every tree that bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire. Wherefore by their fruits ye shall know them...Matthew 7:15-20.

 

If all they do is accuse you of not being good enough…if all they remind you of is your unworthiness….if all they do is accuse you of not being Christian…then are they Christians themselves…yes or no? The accuser is always accusing you of having a speck in your eye…and offer no way to remove it!

 

For with what judgment ye judge, ye shall be judged: and with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you again. And why beholds thou the mote (speck of dust) that is in thy brother's eye, but considers not the beam (log) that is in thine own eye? Or how wilt thou say to thy brother, Let me pull out the mote (speck of imperfection) out of thine eye; and, behold, a beam (large imperfection) is in thine own eye? Thou hypocrite, first cast out the beam (large imperfection) out of thine own eye; and then shalt thou see clearly to cast out the mote (speck) out of thy brother's eye. Give not that which is holy unto the dogs, neither cast ye your pearls before swine, lest they trample them under their feet, and turn again and rend you...Matthew 7:2-6.

 

So even if you are a Christian…stop being a spectator beholding the speck in another’s eyes instead offer encouragement on how to change and be better. It is easy to point out flaws but which is better and not bitter…pointing out flaws or offering an encouragement of how to do better. I mean if a brother blasts you for your behavior saying repent…but offers no prescription on how to do or be better then what has he done but be an accuser. So if you tear down a sister or brother do not forget to build up on how to overcome. If you do not personally know how to overcome…then it would be of none concern of you. Jesus said get it out of your eye then you can help others get the speck out their eye.

 

Prayer

Father please give me the fix…the prescription remedy and cure for my soul’s deepest needs of freedom from this world…in Jesus of Nazareth’s name amen.
