Do Not be Deceived [How Can We Identify the Truth?]
Вставка
- Опубліковано 15 чер 2024
- We are walking through a time of dramatic deception, and we need to know how to recognize it because we are all vulnerable. Pastor Allen Jackson names three key coordinates we can use to discern whether something is true or false: If it aligns with Jesus, the Word of God, and the Holy Spirit, it’s truth! He talks about the fallacies of liberation theology, new age philosophies, false prophecy, the use of occult practices like seances and ouiji boards to predict the future, and other destructive movements that are prevalent in today’s culture. God’s Truth is the anecdote to deception, and with Jesus, we can not only be delivered from it, but be redeemed!

Pastor Allen, I don’t know how I stumbled upon you, other than divine connection. It refreshing to find a Pastor that doesn’t compromise the Word. I’ve found very few in this time we are in. I’ve turned to the older Pastors Sturgeon, Wigglesworth and Derek Prince. Im so thankful for you, praying for you Brother! God Bless you.
Wigglesworth has said he only ever read the Bible. It is refreshing to listen to pastors and teachers from the early 1900's and the issues that concerned the church and society in those days. Surprise, they are pretty much the same!
Someone said wigglesworth never read the Bible more than 30 minutes a day but never went 30 minutes without reading it.
My BFF since 1966 ( we are old😃) told me about you last week, Pastor Jackson! We like being in our 70s cause we are closer to being with the Lord! What could be better? NOTHING. 😉🙏🏼🕊❤️
I love seeing a brother with his sword beside him!! Keep preching His truth and righteousness!
Thank you pastor Allen, I'm so blessed to hear the word of truth from you, I've been listening to your ministry since I was incarcerated until now am out on parole, I'm so blessed I can see u on UA-cam and know who I was listening to while in prison thank you so much...
Pastor Jackson thank you for preaching the truth. In the past I was deceived by former President OBama. God bless you and your family in Jesus name.
Thank you, Pastor Allen. Listening to you is like listening to a best friend who wants to make sure his people are on the right path. Shalom
Thank you for devoting yourself to teaching us!!!
May God bless and keep you and yours.
Help me Jesus, in every way. Give me strength and fortitude to carry out the assignment that You have for me. Thank You Abba Father, I love you so.

Oh Lord I thank God for TRUTH from Allen Jackson!! Something we seldom get from a lot of pulpits! If you can attend His church I beg you to go!!! I live in Georgia it’s to far for me to travel. 3 1/2 hour away!
Praise the LORD you speak the reality of TRUTH. Thank you there is Hope in GOD>
I was listening & watching another pastors message & I guess when I went to grab my phone I must have tapped on your link. So glad I did, this is the 3rd message I’ve listened to & decided to ‘subscribe’. God bless you, Pastor, for the truths that you share. As the darkness begins to roll in, we must be prepared (in His Word) to reach the lost while awaiting His Return. Father in Heaven, protect your servant & this ministry. Supply their need according to your riches in glory. 🙏🏼 Amen
Thank you Pastor for your true commitment to our Lord Jesus n encouraging us in such a time as this.. may God continue to protect n guide you through His Spirit to keep doing His Will for His Glory..
Wow! What a message of truth. Thank you, Pastor.
Yes, Lord, help me to live completely for you in Jesus name amen.
No One that Warreth Entangleth Himself with The Affairs of this Life ( 2 Timothy 2:4 ) You need to be in Prayer, Reading The Bible and Telling Others what Christ has Done in Your Life and how You were Saved and how They can be. Everyday, All The Time. And Hear Well Done Thou Good and Faithful Servant or do Nothing and Hear, Depart from me You Worker of Iniquity

Amen! Thank you for giving a biblical meaning of prophesy.
Thank you for this message, Pastor Jackson. It is wearying to live in a constant barrage of lies, from the media and even sometimes the pulpit. Clinging to The Way, Jesus Christ.
Barb Wilson, this message is NOT from Pastor Allen Jackson. Please report it somehow to the WOC staff. Pastor Allen would NEVER send a request like this. Please do not respond to this message, most likely it is a scam...again, prayerfully consider reporting it to WOC staff. Blessings to you. 🙏
@@truthseeker2989Why don't you send an emergency notice to WOC.

Starting with you and a Bible is the right start. Ask Holy Spirit to teach you to find Truth and Wisdom. There is no perfect denomination.
There’s no perfect minister. There are Many False Profits. Beware.
Wow! Great message ! Love it... you’re so Honest Allen... everything you teach is based on the truth! Thank you !
Thank you for this message!

While it is true Pastor Jackson is an excellent pastor. There are many others that you would enjoy. Jack Hibbs, Gary Hamrick, Andy Woods, Tom Hughes, Brandon Holthaus. For starters.
These pastors are very bold and preach with the same courage that Pastor Jackson does. Hopefully you will all check them out. God bless you all.

Even the narcicist parent can deceive their own beloved child with "gaslighting". The child grows up confused, lost, no idea who they are.
Amen. But I can’t help asking the Lord what I missed in Ravi Zacharius’ sermons which might have warned me about him. The only thing that came to mind was that he never preached about sin.
It’s possible that Ravi Z preached truth. He just didn’t live it in his private life.
Yes I think the same! But it taught me to not hold too much weight on any person... just the person of Jesus Christ!
Ravi came to Christ on an intellectual level but never worshipped from his heart. I keep hearing the " christian worldview" but its not about a worldview as it is a way a life
Amen Pastor!
OH if not for Jesus!!!
Totally enjoys your sermon!!!
Beautiful. Shared.
Jesus is God 🙏
That was so good ✝️🙏🏼
Thank you again.
Each person no matter who they are will be held accountable for their sins each will reap what they sow, each man will stand before the Judgment seat of Christ to receive the things done in the body whether what they've done was good or evil.
evening too all don't worry about taking you are well come
WELL BROTHERS !!! IF WE READ THE HOLY BIBLE!!! AND UNDERSTAND ALL
TRUTH!!! JESUS ANSWERED PILOT THE ROMAN GOVERNER!!WHEN HE HE ASK JESUS!!! WHAT IS TRUTH?!!! CHRIST
ANSWERED!! MY WORDS ARE TRUTH!!
AMEN+3.
Yes, and an academic education doesn't necessarily make you a spiritual leader either!
Did you and JD Farag in on the same call to the Lord ? I am truly blessed listening to you today. Bless you.
🙏✝️🐑❣️👑🙏
I've been looking for a church in my area. I'm tired of trying to do my walk alone. I'm in Kaufman Texas. Can you dear pastor recommend a church. Ice listened to your teaching and I value your opinion. God bless you. Even if you can't could you recommend someone that could. Thank you and may the good Lord shine His face upon you and bless you 🙏❤️✝️
There are spiritual speakers and spiritual preachers. I just listen to a preacher of the word of God the word hurts sometimes
And the saints go marching on! Our Lord is marching on, and were the Lords army. Put on your full armor helmet of salvation so we can't here the lies of the evil one. Breast plate of righteousness we know right and wrong walk as the Lord did as he is In us your body is the temple the belt of truth we want to speak the truth and see the truth, my shoes are prepared with the gospel of peace "we have a Savior repent and be saved. Ledt hand is your shield of faith to block the fiery darts of the devil, in your right hand is the two edged sword. Fight with God's words
Just curious are you originally from the Central Arkansas are? Did I hear you in Conway in the 80’s?
I seem to trip over that more and more, Satan breathes down my neck and he is doing it through my family. He knows I see the Truth but I am simple minded, but highly intelligent. I just love country life. And like to keep it simple. The deception is unreal. What's worse is I keep it to myself because then it starts war. Called triggers, very brutal. I walk away and let it win.
I can do all things through christ Jesus who strengthens me.
Do you believe in the finished and completed work of our Lord Jesus Christ for salvation?
🙏⚓️📖
Are there true God given prophets today?
Jesus didnt mention anymore to come. He mentioned false prophets though. Muhamed, joseph smith, and im sure theres more
I know the truth I'm one of Jehovah's witnesses. I gave my life to Jehovah decades ago. Jehovah's witnesses want to tell you the truth 100 percent word by word. Satan said nobody in the universe wants to serve Jehovah. Would you love to prove satan a liar? 8 million Jehovah's witnesses proved satan a liar. Would you love to live forever on a paradise earth with Jehovah's witnesses? You can if you prove satan a liar. On the new paradise earth everyone will look 18 years old forever. And you can worship Jehovah forever. Isn't that good news? Oh this good news of the kingdom let us preach. Make the truth your own forever. Love Jehovah's witnesses.
Do JWs proclaim Jesus as GOD? The 2nd Person of the Trinity? Only faith in Christ can save! "If you have not the Son, you have not the Father" 1 John 2:23 and Jesus said "I and the Father are ONE." John 10:30. Only the blood of Christ is sufficient for sins. It cannot be ANY of your own good works. You Must be born again/born from above, have the indwelling Spirit of Christ, and be made righteous...by Christ. Not your own righteousness. I pray that you will find mercy and forgiveness in the Love of Christ for you, dear one.
Reading the title, I thought it was going to be about the rapture where the Bible says “let no man deceive you as that the day of the Lord is at hand. 2 Thes 2. If you are curious, look up the famous rapture passages in 1 Thes 4, but read a couple of verses into chapter 5. The rapture happens on the day of the Lord. Isn’t that surprising?
Having seen the fallen ones, the time is now, be ready 3 1/2 years left 7,~^~,,•*~,STARS OF REVELATION,SELAH,ANGELOS, MOLACH.
What do you think about speaking in tongue’s I’m confused about it ?
It's ok to question and be confused. I was for many, many years. I finally decided I wanted peace of mind, so just between me and the Lord I said: If You have tongues for me great, if not...I'm not going to fake it just to fit in the with crowd and I certainly don't need it to prove I am saved, or to be seen as "spiritual". I'm totally OK around those who do! In regards to Acts Chapter 2, this passage does refer to human languages, because it says everyone heard the Gospel in their own language or dialect. Crowds then returned to their homelands, thus spreading what they had seen and heard. There are right and wrong ways to use the gift that are recorded in scripture. Everything is supposed to be done orderly...which you rarely see...and in love. When someone speaks in tongues, there is supposed to be an interpretation. In fact, interpretation of tongues is also listed as a spiritual gift. It's a real thing, but yes, there is a lot of confusion surrounding it and there always has been controversy.
The real truth is, all begins from God Himself. If you don't get God right , your truth is not right. What you believe, ONLY ONE GOD, or A TRIUNE GOD ? Don't be deceived, this is not a trick question, but this is a matter of life or death...forever

In Truth and in Spirit
Psalms 119:151
Thou art near, O LORD; and all thy commandments are truth.
John 6:63
It is the spirit that quickeneth; the flesh profiteth nothing: the words that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and they are life.
So to worship in Spirit and in Truth is to obey Deut. 6:8-9, and "put on Jesus". The voice of our LORD and GOD. The Ten Commandments and the Sermon on the Mount.
He has come to gather His children. He comes as The Word.
Psalms 40:7
Then said I, Lo, I come: in the volume of the book it is written of me,
Hebrews 10:7
Then said I, Lo, I come (in the volume of the book it is written of me,) to do thy will, O God.
Do you know your Father's voice? Trust in The Word and apply the spirit and truth as we are told in Deut.6:8-9.
You can identify the truth through science.
Science is the search for facts. Religion is the perpetuation of myth.
And science supports the truth of the Bible.
if you know where Jesus is in the sanctuary you wont be deceived. But only one in a million true Christians know.
Jesus said " i will give you living water" in revelation the dragon spewed water out his mouth like i river to overtake the woman" i truly believe this is false doctrine. We are suppose to come out of the world. If your being sucked in to polotics and worldly things your following baal. The spirit of baal has entered the church
Pastor I enjoy listening to you but this particular message I noticed you didn't really use any Scripture. I hope the same beliefs that you do but if you're speaking to the church shouldn't you open the book? Continue your good work
The whole thing is about Matthew 24. Did you listen to this?
The big deception is in the churches . Saying we don't have this in f . My people come; out of her. We're not only to come out of the churches that teach false doctrine. That Teaches pre rapture so your not prepared. and the teaches not to obey commandments or Sabbath . He came to fulfill the law not to abolish it who ever teaches others to not do them will be considered least in heaven . The Sabbath is God's mark of authority, and Jesus is Lord of the Sabbath so it's the Lords day Saturday not sunday ,The day God set aside for us so we can get to know him. We all heard this saying from bible "Lord Lord and Jesus said I'm sorry I don't know you, they replied but I have prophesied in your name I've even cast out demons in your name, Jesus says I'm Sorry i don't know you depart from me you workers of inequity. (Disobedient).:they never got to know him because they didn't keep the Sabbath. God says Remember to keep it Holy. This is the big big deception. . Of course it's the best of the best God did say GREAT Deceiver, God America for 300 years . Rome changed the day why they never changed it back as Rome kills all the saints and killed Jesus but they follow him and not the Lord. Stop Sunday worship . It's the mark of the devil to God's mark we get his name it's the same thing the mark of the beast is forehead or arm God told us to keep between the eyes so it's always on the mind and in are fist so we're strong with it .Sabbath God's creation is under attack . By Darwin first now natural selection . Billions of years old . It's all deception .if they could confince you the first part of bible is not true than all of it could be wrong.
Now learn the parable
Matthew 24/1 And Jesus went out and departed the Temple, and his disciples came to point out to him the buildings of the Temple. 2 But Jesus said to them, 'Do you not see all these things? Truly I say to you, there will not be left here stone on stone which is not going to be demolished.' 3 And as he was sitting on the Mount of Olives, the disciples came to him alone, saying, 'Tell us, when will these things be, and what will be the sign of your magisterial presence, of, that is, the completion of the Eon?
Jesus did die and departed the Temple, God doesn't dwell in Temples made with hands, Jesus was the Tabernacle made without hands - Hebrews 9.. and the buildings of the Temple which disciples pointed out in which they did not perceive perceive these things and was said there will not be left here stone on stone but they will be demolished, they are the stones which the builders rejected which is to say the people rejected. Moses wrote the law on 2 stones and made an altar with a Tabernacle and an Ark, Jesus fulfilled the Tabernacle made without hands - Hebrews 9, the one coming after is the Ark made without hands who Jesus authorizes being as God gave Jesus all power and authority.
4 And in answer, Jesus said to them, 'Watch that nobody should lead you adrift. 5 For many will come trading on my name, saying, "I am the Christ," and they will deceive many. 6 But you will be about to hear of battles and rumors of battles. Be vigilant and do not be terrified, for these things have to come to pass, but the end is not yet. 7 'For nation will be roused against nation and kingdom against kingdom, and there are going to be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes in various places. Churches are teachings lies as if their falsehoods are anointed in name of Christ.
8 But these are a beginning of birth-pangs. 9 'Then they will hand you over into tribulation, and they will murder you, and you will be hated by all the nations on account of my name. 10 'And then many will be made to stumble, and they will hand each other over, and they will hate each other. 11 And many pseudo prophets will be raised up and they will deceive many. 12 And because of lawlessness being multiplied, the love of many will grow cold. 13 But the One having endured until the end will be preserved. 14 And this gospel of the Sovereign Rulership will be proclaimed in all the inhabited world with a view to a testimony to all the nations. And then the end will come.
The One having endured until the end is the witness authorized by Jesus Christ of God to be a witness of them and a testimony to all for the confirming of the second covenant for the salvation of the world order to come in the new Sovereign Government coming down to earth not up in the clouds but you will see the One having endured until the end/death and he will be preserved / raised and his testimony will be proclaimed by many the beginning of birth pangs a man child waiting to die and be received up rev 12 is about the witness even as the same can be said about Jesus likewise Jesus is in the witness and Jesus is in the Father and lives by the Father likewise the witness will live by Jesus who will raise him up.
15 'When, therefore, you see the Abomination of Desolation, which was spoken of through the agency of the prophet Daniel, standing in the dedicated place - he who reads, let him observe attentively-
The Abomination of Desolation is when they take away the sacrifice and burnt offerings which is to say when they kill the witness of Jesus Christ and of God, the witness is the Ark of the covenant made without hands and the Son of Man spoken of in Daniel, its written in parables so those who aren't supposed to know won't otherwise why would Jesus mention it if it was about him? Why do you think Jesus seems to speak of himself in third person "the Son of Man"? So the witness is killed and 3 and half days later raised
16 then those in Judea should flee into the mountains.
Run and hide when it happens because verses 9 & 10 are now happening "on account of my name." Because of the witness, the testimony and confirming of the covenant.
17 The One on the rooftop should not come down to take his things out of his house, 18 and the One in the field should not turn behind to collect his clothes. 19 But woe to those who are pregnant, and to those breastfeeding in those day! 20 But pray that your flight might not occur in the winter, nor on a Sabbath day.
The One on the rooftop is the witness raised into Glory and his house are the sheep, the witness iscgiven the Iron Sceptre and granted to sit on the Throne of God with Jesus who gives him the sceptre and authority even as Jesus was given by the Father, he will give power and authority to the witness who also is the One in the field, the field being the earth is the witness the seed which was sown landed on good soil, that's another parable but the main point is you will be murdered if found the woe to the pregnant are those who believe and those breastfeeding are those false teachers giving milk when the people need meat. Only the Father knows the day, it is written For in it the righteousness of God is revealed out of faith, with a view to faith
21 'For then there will be a mighty tribulation, the like of which has not arisen from the beginning of the world until this time, no, and nor will it by any means arise again. 22 And if those days were not shortened, no flesh would be preserved. For the sake of the elect, though, those days will be cut short.
The witness is confirming the 2nd covenant through the Eternal Spirit if not for the confirmation of 2nd Covenant by the testifying witness, we'd all be doomed because its the 1st Covenant we are all still under and all have broken the law read Hebrews 9 the new covenant has to be confirmed the days cut short are literally for the Elect One, there will be no rapture for lawbreakers but the just will live by faith be faithful until the end
23 'Then if anybody will say to you, "Look, here is the Christ!" Or "There!", do not believe it. 24 For pseudo christs and pseudo prophets will be raised up, and they will perform impressive signs and wonders, in order, if possible, to deceive even the elect. 25 See, I have told you ahead of time. 26 So if they say to you, "Look, he's in the desert," do not go out, or "Look in the desert," do not go out, or "Look in the private rooms," do not believe it. 27 For just as the lightning comes from the East, and flashes as far as the West, so also will be the magisterial presence of the Son of Man.
The Son of Man the witness will not be performing miracles by no means a wicked and adulterous generation seeks a sign but no sign will be given but the sign of Jonah. As far lightning flashing from East to the West, The Son of Man just has to press send on his phone or computer and can spread the message all around the earth in which Jesus has to travel by foot to get into church buildings to teach this One does not, so message goes faster as long as its on good soil.
28 For wherever there might be a carcass, there the eagles will be gathered together
Again the witness is raised.
29 'But immediately after the tribulation of those days, the Sun will be darkened, and the Moon will not give its lustre, and the stars will fall from the sky, and the powers of the skies will be shaken. (Genesis 37/9)
30 'And then the sign of the Son of Man will blaze in the sky, and then all the tribes of the land will mourn, and they will see the Son of Man coming into being on the clouds of Heaven with power and immense magnificence. 31 And he will authorize his angels with a loud-sounding trumpet, and they will gather together his chosen out of the four winds, from one end of the skies to the other end.
The darkening of the luminaries are when the Witness/ Son of Man is raised
32 'Now learn the parable from the fig tree. When its branch has already become supple and it puts out leaves, you come to know that the summer is near. 33 So you, in the same way, when you see all these things, you must understand that it is near, at the doors.
When leaves fall they are dead but the tree and branches are not dead and new leaves are formed and alive, the witness must come, be rejected and die for all.
34 'Truly I say to you, this generated oracle will by no means pass away until all the things such as these arise. 35 Heaven and the Earth will pass away, but my oracles will certainly not pass away. 36 'But concerning that day and hour, nobody has any intuitive knowledge - not even the angels of the heavens - except My Father alone. 37 'But just as the days of Noah, so also will be the magisterial presence of the Son of Man.
Nobody knew Noah was the real deal but a few
