WATCH OUT FOR LIFE SPOILERS
Mathew 7:15 -20 Beware of false prophets which come to you in Sheep's clothing but inwardly they are ravening wolves. You shall know them, do men gather grapes of thorns or figs of thistles?
The scripture begins by warning us to take heed of false prohets. Whenever I read these words of Jesus, I recall various tragic stories of young men and women who fell into the gallows of these ravenous wolves.
Statements like He was a pastor's interpreter, but made me pregnant&, &He was an usher in our church and I believed him&, &We always met at church, so, I knew he was born again&, &I came for counseling but he raped me& , &well, he was my pastor but slept with my wife.
Hearing such stories that have derailed brethren of their faith, and left them hopeless troubles me a lot, yet I am not surprised for that's the exact goal of such spoilers.
Fellow brethren, whenever you are left in such a situation , understand that you encountered a ravenous wolf that pretended to be one of the sheep but still understand that real sheep exist. Do no lose hope.
After such a disappointment, the next thing to do should be to guard yourself against falling victim of wolves again. Jesus says we shall know them by their fruit. People who walk by the spirit produce the fruit of the spirit and in the same way those who walk by the flesh (sheep's clothing) bear fruit of the same.
The ravenous wolf is always on the side but if you are careful walking in spirit, you will Identify it.
Brethren at Galatia had the problem of these ravenous wolves, they were devouring unsuspecting believers who considered them part of the sheep.
He goes ahead to list the fruits of these ravenous wolves It is true such agents may pretend for relatively long time but if you exercise diligence, you will get to know them. They won't hide forever. Be wise brethren , be alert and watch out, position yourself to discern and save yourself from unnecessary disappointments and heart breaks. Even if he is your pastor, or boy friend, so long he does not bear the right fruit,
All victims, I have this for you, I know you have had your hearts broken in past by unsympathetic agents of confusion, but, I want you understand this, God has compassion on you and has made provision for your hurt through the grace and blood of Jesus Christ and the healing power of his holly spirit.
May the peace of our Lord Jesus Christ continue to dwell in you richly.
