The False Priesthood (1/19/23)

Judgment is coming to the false priesthood. The Lord spoke to me about this issue through His fire on January 17, 2023. The Lord told me that some leaders have been preaching a different “I Am” than the God who flooded the earth in the days of Noah. He explained to me that the unchanging God of the entire Bible has been replaced with the partial revealing of God through Jesus Christ found in the Gospels. The Godhead is revealed to us throughout the entirety of scripture. The revealing of Jesus in the Gospels was never intended to cancel out the former revealings of who God is, but it was to bring a greater understanding of the Godhead. 

Some leaders (including many in the Charismatic Movement) have used a partial revealing of God in the New Testament to replace the God of the whole Bible. These leaders have profaned the Lord by perverting who He is, and thus they have preached a false god. This is specifically in regard to the righteous Judge that the Godhead is (but incorporates more of His nature as well). The Lord is not pleased that He is being presented incorrectly by “His ministers.” If they were really His ministers then they would know Him and present Him correctly. “Cancel culture” has been spreading throughout America and Europe, while “canceling Almighty God” has been spreading through the church. The false priesthood cancels the God of the Bible that doesn’t fit their American Gospel narrative of God. 

The Lord pressed the following into me with His fire. This is a current word for the church. The Lord will begin moving in wrath against His leaders who preach a false god to His church. I know this sounds harsh, but the Lord gave me a New Testament scripture to confirm what He said to me:

“Do you not discern and understand that you [the whole church at Corinth] are God's temple (His sanctuary), and that God's Spirit has His permanent dwelling in you [to be at home in you, collectively as a church and also individually]? If anyone does hurt to God's temple or corrupts it [with false doctrines] or destroys it, God will do hurt to him and bring him to the corruption of death and destroy him. For the temple of God is holy (sacred to Him) and that [temple] you [the believing church and its individual believers] are.” 1 Corinthians 3:16-17 AMPC

This was said with the context of 1 Corinthians 3:10-15. Christ is the only foundation that can be laid. Teaching that reveals Christ is as gold. This “golden” building material brings forth the formation of Christ in believers, and helps them reach the mature man that Jesus is. False doctrine that is laid upon the foundation of Jesus actually destroys the temple of God (the church). The doctrine of God not judging (being a Judge of Justice and Righteousness) is more than a doctrine or a different way of believing. It is actually an attack on who God is or His very nature. Therefore a completely different god is being presented to many believers in the church, which is a god who doesn’t judge. 

The Lord’s temple is being destroyed, as a false god is being taught in His place. His people don’t fully know Him, and many continue in sin without having a healthy fear of Him. The Lord is jealous for His temple and wants it to be healthy and perfectly constructed. Each living stone must have the Lord revealed in them for the temple to be built properly. If a false god is revealed in the hearts of believers, then Christ cannot be formed in them, and the temple cannot be built for the Lord to dwell in. The enemy knows this, and has sent deceptive doctrines forth to pervert our understanding of God. There are additional evil doctrines being laid on the foundation of a Jesus Christ, and being absorbed by living stones; but I am specifically discussing “judgment” because that is the example the Lord gave me. 

Paul specifically says that God will judge and destroy (kill) those “builders” who instead of building the temple of God by Heavenly code; are corrupting it by their perverted revealing of God. This includes omitting who God is, and manipulating scripture according to their own self-life. Some believers can’t hear that God still judges even when scripture from the New Testament is quoted, because they are so entrenched in the lies and distorted teaching of the false builders. 

The leaders who are profaning God with their false doctrines of demons, will soon come under judgment. As the Holy Spirit says in the New Testament, He will destroy preachers and leaders who are corrupting the temple of God (the church). Leaders and preachers will die from cancer, heart attacks, or other diseases. Some leaders will come under demonic oppression and simply quit the ministry. The Lord can judge and remove leaders however He sees fit, and we are now in the season that He will be doing this. Some believers in the church in Corinth experienced sickness and death as a judgment from God (1 Corinthians 11:27-34), which indicates that the Lord will move in this way if He is forced to do so. 

The righteous Judge will not be misrepresented any longer. He is about ready to show the entire world that He is still the same God that rendered righteous judgment on the world during the day of Noah. As in the days of Noah, so will it be in the days leading up to the coming of Jesus. We are living in the days of the King returning with a rod of iron in which He will rule the nations. His judgments are coming soon and we must be awake and prepared. The Lord promised He would not flood the entire earth again, but He did not promise that parts of the earth would not be flooded again. There are also other ways that He will bring judgment by water:

“The third angel sounded [his trumpet], and a great star fell from heaven, burning like a torch [flashing across the sky], and it fell on a third of the rivers and on the springs of [fresh] waters. The name of the star is Wormwood; and a third of the waters became wormwood, and many people died from the waters, because they had become bitter (toxic).” (Revelation 8:10-11 AMP)

False Priests

The false priesthood will always turn Bethel (the house of God) into a house of idolatry. The first idols become the priests themselves. They create a culture of “idol worship” for themselves. Things become about the “pastor and his wife,” and the church begins to develop an unhealthy “worship” for their spiritual leaders. The false priest incorporates the “American way” of worshiping “stars” into the house of God. They are afraid that people may get bored and go elsewhere to worship, so out of fear; they create idols to worship for God’s people:

“Then Jeroboam built Shechem in the mountains of Ephraim, and dwelt there. Also he went out from there and built Penuel. And Jeroboam said in his heart, “Now the kingdom may return to the house of David: If these people go up to offer sacrifices in the house of the Lord at Jerusalem, then the heart of this people will turn back to their Lord, Rehoboam king of Judah, and they will kill me and go back to Rehoboam king of Judah.” Therefore the king asked advice, made two calves of gold, and said to the people, “It is too much for you to go up to Jerusalem. Here are your gods, O Israel, which brought you up from the land of Egypt!” And he set up one in Bethel, and the other he put in Dan. Now this thing became a sin, for the people went to worship before the one as far as Dan. He made shrines on the high places, and made priests from every class of people, who were not of the sons of Levi. Jeroboam ordained a feast on the fifteenth day of the eighth month, like the feast that was in Judah, and offered sacrifices on the altar. So he did at Bethel, sacrificing to the calves that he had made. And at Bethel he installed the priests of the high places which he had made. So he made offerings on the altar which he had made at Bethel on the fifteenth day of the eighth month, in the month which he had devised in his own heart. And he ordained a feast for the children of Israel, and offered sacrifices on the altar and burned incense.” (I Kings 12:25-33 NKJV)

The false priesthood develops a system of worship that is exciting to the “natural man” so that people will not leave their ministry. They understand that if they can create entertainment for the souls of carnal minded believers, they can keep believers entertained and coming back. 

The Royal Priesthood preaches Christ, His cross-life, and His inward transformation and life. They know that some believers will walk away from their ministry just as many of Jesus’ own disciples did in John Chapter 6. The Royal Priesthood is prepared to bring the Lord’s disciples to Jesus, so that Jesus can increase to His full measure in them. They desire to see the Master have His way with His people, and for God’s people to have an intimate relationship with Jesus. 

The false priesthood puts a focus on serving their ministry. They are always seeking more workers to work the alters of the golden calves at Bethel. Believers must prove their loyalty by serving. Anyone who wants to sit at Jesus’s feet and simply “be,” will be looked down upon by the false priesthood. Works, activities, and programs are preached by the false priesthood. Busyness is used to keep people focused on the ministry, which in turn keep people from just being with Christ and becoming like Him. 

Some of the top leaders in the Charismatic Church want to protect their names and reputations. Therefore they will not teach or prophesy about the Judge or His righteous judgment. They know that if they say certain things, it will cause believers to stop following their ministries. They know that it will damage their reputations within certain church circles. So instead of giving the pure word of God and being His oracles, they change His word to protect their reputations and ministries. They value their names over the name of Jesus, and they take from His glory. They are cowards and false priests. Their reward before the throne of God will be just. Real oracles of God are purified by the Lord’s fire and give His pure word:

The oracles of the Lord are pure oracles; as silver tried in the fire, proved in a furnace of earth, purified seven times. (Psalms 12:6 Brenton LXX) 

The Lord has a process of refinement for His real messengers so they will be prepared to be God’s oracles and give a pure word from the Lord. The process is called “the cross of Jesus Christ.” It is a process trials, afflictions, and sufferings; seven times over.  Leaders that are exalted into ministry at an early age because of a gifting (without being tried in fire), often live for their reputation. They don’t want people to think badly of their ministry. So if the Lord has a hard or difficult word for the church, they twist the word and pollute it as they give the word; so that they don’t damage their “name.” The word given is then impure and mixed. These are not true oracles of God, but oracles of their own names’. 

True oracles of the Lord give His word even if it means damaging their own reputation in the church. They are living for the great King, not themselves or their ministries. They are not looking for a fleeting reward upon the earth, but they peer into the invisible by faith and see their reward before the throne of the Lamb. These are the ones who give God’s word and follow His ministry, even if it makes them “of no reputation” among men:

“Let this mind be in you which was also in Christ Jesus, who, being in the form of God, did not consider it robbery to be equal with God, but made Himself of no reputation, taking the form of a bondservant, and coming in the likeness of men. And being found in appearance as a man, He humbled Himself and became obedient to the point of death, even the death of the cross. Therefore God also has highly exalted Him and given Him the name which is above every name,” (Philippians 2:5-9 NKJV)

Strange Fire

“Now Nadab and Abihu, the sons of Aaron, took their respective [ceremonial] censers, put fire in them, placed incense on it and offered strange (unauthorized, unacceptable) fire before the Lord, [an act] which He had not commanded them to do. And fire came out from the presence of the Lord and devoured them, and they died before the Lord. Then Moses said to Aaron, “This is what the Lord said: ‘I will be treated as holy by those who approach Me, And before all the people I will be honored.’ ” So Aaron, therefore, said nothing.” (Leviticus 10:1-3 AMP)

Nadab and Abihu are symbolic of the false priesthood. They were immature and did not know God, nor did they fear God. They started functioning in their ministry with “assumption” and were not moved by the voice of the Lord. They moved in their soulish religious zeal, and performed a “spiritual” act that the Lord did not ask them to do. They incorporated “false worship” into the house of God, and tried to appear “important” among the people. God struck them dead, just like He did Ananias and Sapphira. The God who moved in judgment then, is the same God we serve now. He expects His priesthood to treat Him with respect, and to honor His holy name. We dishonor Him by only revealing a portion of who He is to the temple of God. 

This is exactly what the Lord is saying He will do to those teachers and false prophets who sow false doctrines into His church. In order for the Lord to have a pure and spotless bride she must be free of her sin and false doctrines, that are eating her like gangrene. So the Lord is moving in loving-kindness and mercy for His body. He is bringing destruction to leaders who are building perversions onto the foundation of Jesus Christ. The Father will keep the foundation of His Son pure, and He will have a bride without blemish. The Lord’s jealousy for His bride is coming forth. 

False priests also offer strange fire to the Lord by leading worship, while within their hearts they are not really worshiping the Lamb. Rather, this priesthood stands before people because they are gifted, and love how others are “seeing” them. The false priesthood sends up strange fire to God by taking the attention of the people for themselves. They enjoy being “recognized” in the church. Their strange fire burns the nostrils of the Lord, and He is tired of its stench. These false worshipers should be afraid for approaching the Lord without treating Him as holy. He will bring forth true worshipers who have their attention on His Son, and allow Jesus to get the glory. The false priesthood will be changed out with the Royal Priesthood as the judgements of the Lord fall in His house. 

The Royal Priesthood Confronts the False Priesthood 

“Thus He showed me: Behold, the Lord stood on a wall made with a plumb line, with a plumb line in His hand. And the Lord said to me, “Amos, what do you see?” And I said, “A plumb line.” Then the Lord said: “Behold, I am setting a plumb line In the midst of My people Israel; I will not pass by them anymore. The high places of Isaac shall be desolate, And the sanctuaries of Israel shall be laid waste. I will rise with the sword against the house of Jeroboam.” Then Amaziah the priest of Bethel sent to Jeroboam king of Israel, saying, “Amos has conspired against you in the midst of the house of Israel. The land is not able to bear all his words. For thus Amos has said: ‘Jeroboam shall die by the sword, And Israel shall surely be led away captive From their own land.’ ” Then Amaziah said to Amos: “Go, you seer! Flee to the land of Judah. There eat bread, And there prophesy. But never again prophesy at Bethel, For it is the king’s sanctuary, And it is the royal residence.” Then Amos answered, and said to Amaziah: “I was no prophet, Nor was I a son of a prophet, But I was a sheepbreeder And a tender of sycamore fruit. Then the Lord took me as I followed the flock, And the Lord said to me, ‘Go, prophesy to My people Israel.’ Now therefore, hear the word of the Lord: You say, ‘Do not prophesy against Israel, And do not spout against the house of Isaac.’ “Therefore thus says the Lord: ‘Your wife shall be a harlot in the city; Your sons and daughters shall fall by the sword; Your land shall be divided by survey line; You shall die in a defiled land; And Israel shall surely be led away captive From his own land.’ ”” (Amos 7:7-17 NKJV)

The Lord has measured Bethel (the house God) with His plumb line, and the pollution from the false priesthood has reached full measure. The false priesthood rejected and refused the true instruction about who God is as the righteous Judge. They spoke against the word of the Lord and rebuked the Lord’s messenger, thus rebuking God Himself who was speaking through the messenger. The false priesthood hates the true word about God’s coming judgment and rejects the Lord as the Judge. The pollution of the “Amaziah Priesthood” is coming to an end. No more shall they tend to the altars at the true Bethel. The false Bethel that remains will be absorbed by the Beast System or the beast’s Global Church. It will be given over to deception, so pray that as many believers will come out of it as possible. It’s time to warn, speak the truth in love, and call our brothers and sisters out of the false religious system. 

If Jesus is going to return and set up His Kingdom, then His judgments will have to come first. No one is going to stop the seals of judgment from being opened, the trumpets from sounding, or the antichrist from ruling the majority of the earth for three and a half years. No one is going to pray it away or prophesy it away. America is not going to reform and become a shining beacon of power that overcomes the antichrist system, or prevents the antichrist rule from occurring. It has already been set and established from the foundation of the world. Even Daniel saw the rule of the antichrist, and his global system overcoming the saints (God’s people) for three and a half years. 

 “As I kept looking, that horn was making war with the saints (believers) and overpowering them until the Ancient of Days came and judgment was passed in favor of the saints of the Most High [God], and the time arrived when the saints (believers) took possession of the kingdom. “Thus the angel said, ‘The fourth beast shall be a fourth kingdom on earth, which will be different from all other kingdoms and will devour the whole earth and tread it down, and crush it. As for the ten horns, out of this kingdom ten kings will arise; and another will arise after them, and he will be different from the former ones, and he will subdue three kings. He will speak words against the Most High [God] and wear down the saints of the Most High, and he will intend to change the times and the law; and they will be given into his hand for a time, [two] times, and half a time [three and one-half years]. But the court [of the Most High] will sit in judgment, and his dominion will be taken away, [first to be] consumed [gradually] and [then] to be destroyed forever. Then the kingdom and the dominion and the greatness of all the kingdoms under the whole heaven will be given to the people of the saints (believers) of the Most High; His kingdom will be an everlasting kingdom, and all the dominions will serve and obey Him.’” (Daniel 7:21-27 AMP)

No one is a “holy saint” unless the Sanctified One, Jesus Christ, is living inside of them. A Jewish person who is not born again, is not a saint; so this scripture is referencing believers. Judgment will not be passed in favor of believers until after the antichrist has had global authority for the amount of time set by the Lord (3 1/2 years). The saints will not possess the Kingdom until Jesus brings His Kingdom to the earth and destroys the antichrist Kingdom. The false priesthood has polluted the temple of God with all sorts of false teachings regarding the above scripture. The Lord is not going to tolerate the destruction of His holy temple any longer. He does not not want His church confused about what is coming. Confusion and false teaching sown into the temple will cause God’s people to be unprepared and fall away from the Lord.

Conclusion 

It is time for the false priesthood to repent before it is too late. Now is the time for the Shepherd’s sheep to spit out all the garbage that the prophetic religious system has been putting out. The system has been feeding the sheep pig slop, but the Lord desires His flock to eat from the lush grasslands of His word. It’s time to go deep into the word of God, and reject all teaching that contradicts His beautiful word. The Holy Spirit will brighten the understanding of those who began to dig deep into the word and embrace the Lord of the entire Bible.
