Being born-again comes with a heavy responsibility as we become witnesses to the salvation and love of our Lord Jesus Christ, In Paul’s 1st. Ch of his letter to the Colossians the Lord shows us what is expected of us as His children “That ye might walk worthy of the Lord unto all pleasing, being fruitful in every good work, and increasing in the knowledge of God”, If we then turn to the 3rd. Ch. of Ezekiel as the Lord speaks through him to Israel He also speaks to us in a very harsh warning that we should never forget when He says “When I say unto the wicked, Thou shalt surely die; and thou givest him not warning, nor speakest to warn the wicked from his wicked way, to save his life; the same wicked man shall die in his iniquity; but his blood will I require at thine hand. Yet if thou warn the wicked, and he turn not from his wickedness, nor from his wicked way, he shall die in his iniquity; but thou hast delivered thy soul”. I believe the Lord defines wicked that will not be found in Webster’s dictionary. In the religions of this world of many churches that claim to be Bible believers we find false teachings that lead many away from the salvation of Jesus Christ, if we do not warn these teachers and preachers and self appointed prophets then we ourselves fall prey to the Lord’s words through Ezekiel, this in itself is wickedness by those who lead many astray,and we find many of these false teachers on facebook, it’s not just those who preach the prosperity message in the mega-churches because we undoubtedly will not reach them for riches is their god, it’s the ones who sneak in that are ignorant of the Word of God, along with this responsibility we are endowed with the gift of discernment that the Lord helps us in weeding out the tares from the wheat, walking in the Spirit of almighty God gives us the wisdom, understanding and knowledge that prevents ourselves from being deceived as many are and we are to always expose the wickedness of false teachings at every turn, satan is a devious monster that goes to and fro trying to keep many from eternity with our Lord. “Be not deceived” comes from the lips of Jesus Christ to all that will hear.
