False Circumcision
Beware of evil workers.
Beware of dogs.
Beware of the incision-makers.
Three times: BEWARE! So says Paul in Philippians 3:2.
Paul lived a long time ago, and he spoke against false religion. Over
the last two thousand years false religion has had to have done one of
three things: It has diminished; it has stayed the same; or it has
increased. Personally, I figure it has increased. This means, BEWARE!
But we are told today not to judge, but to be tolerant and loving. This
means, typically, to go along with dogs, to support evil workers, and
keep the false brethren in power. They are the ‘incision-makers’. They
are the false circumcision.
A quick review of circumcision, the law and grace: The Jews had to have
their males circumcised in order to keep the commandment. If they didn’t
cut off a portion of their most private, sensitive fleshly member, then
they would be cut off by God. The Gentiles could come in as proselytes,
but they would have to have the operation. So, it seemed natural to the
Jews who became Christians that the Gentiles should share in their pain
by having elective surgery. Paul refers to them as flesh-cutters. Paul
knew these were false brethren because they trusted in their fleshly
rituals and not in Jesus Christ.
As time went along, well after the
apostles were dead and gone, the Gentiles became the new
‘incision-makers’. They brought in new doctors with new medical
procedures who performed the necessary plastic surgery on the
commandments of Jesus Christ. Their churches made up rules based on
pagan practices. In the Old Testament, God forbade the Jews to partake
of them saying, “They shall not make baldness upon their head, neither
shall they shave off the corner of their beard, nor make any cuttings in
their flesh” (Leviticus 21:5). But the Roman Catholic monks, for
example, tonsured their heads in defiance and humility. Let’s not forget
the ‘Protestants’: Why is it that most males in modern society are
circumcised? Medical procedure.
A rational man would flee from medicine men wanting a piece of their
flesh, much less a piece of their soul. But it does not matter how
learned a man is, he will always fall for a lie if it’s told well
enough. The Bible is no lie. It tells us things we don’t want to hear,
yes, but it is no lie. It tells how the Jews had to butcher little lambs
and fill up huge basins with their blood and sprinkle it on the crowds
in atonement for their sins. This is quite irrational behavior to a good
Protestant. But the need for atonement goes on, even though the Jews
stopped doing this. Their power and heritage was stripped when the
Gentiles became recipients of God’s atoning blood through Jesus Christ.
They were stripped, but not forsaken. All who believe in Jesus Christ
and his shed blood are truly forgiven of their sins. No amount of
religious to-do can enhance this ultimate sacrifice. The Jews, as any
race of men, must enter in by the narrow gate of God’s only Son.
But medical programs involving brain surgery will never get a man off
the path to hell. A frontal lobotomy viz a viz an ordained clergyman, no
matter how skillful he or she is, may quiet the behavior of the crazed
parishioner, but it will never make him holy, never fit for heaven. And
yet, the Gentile churches demand you sit still while they get out the
skull saws and go to work
You must obey them, at least in keeping income rolling in for their
programs. They need lots of money in order to pull off their lies that
go against creation itself. For instance, if a sodomite wants to pretend
to be normal, he must spend large amounts of money pursuing his
perversion, and large amounts of money treating himself for subsequent
disease. He must spend lots of money convincing us he is normal and
loves Jesus. We are told to put our arms around him and treat him as
brother. However, not only am I unconvinced, I beware of these false
brethren, according to the gospel of Paul the Apostle..
These same perverts tell us they are pure because they eat health foods,
don’t touch dirty surfaces and use sanitizer after they shake hands.
Their religion consists of taste not, touch not and handle not, even
though they defile themselves in mind and body. They claim to be
tolerant and loving, but this means they have an agenda to undermine the
faith and they want you to love and be tolerant towards them! If they
catch you saying a cuss word, they look at you with horror, even as they
plot on your wife (or you) or your house or your children. These same
ones who disallow food and beverages allow stealing and cheating,
fornication and adultery. Their religion consists of it, so why
shouldn’t they react in horror if you tell them about it. If you point
out their errors, they immediately claim you are intolerant. This is the
way of hypocrites.
Jesus told us to beware also. He said to beware of the teaching of the
scribes and the Pharisees, which is hypocrisy. They teach hypocrisy.
They teach it is O.K. to disobey God as long as one obeys some manmade
traditions. Jesus said to beware of covetousness. He knew the cause of
the Pharisees’ hypocrisy. It was covetousness. It was the love of
riches. This is so obvious from the interaction of Jesus with them and
his admonitions to the crowds that it can only be devilish that anyone
can miss it.
Some of those who preach against covetousness are covetous themselves.
You can tell them by their fruit. They are called hypocrites. They tell
others what to do, but they justify themselves when caught doing it.
This is their teaching. It is their hypocrisy.
Then Jesus said unto them, Take heed and beware of the leaven of the
Pharisees and of the Sadducees. Matthew 16:6
Beware of the scribes, which desire to walk in long robes, and love
greetings in the markets, and the highest seats in the synagogues, and
the chief rooms at feasts; Which devour widows' houses, and for a show
make long prayers: the same shall receive greater damnation. Luke
20:46-47
And he said unto them, Take heed, and beware of covetousness: for a
man's life consisteth not in the abundance of the things which he
possesseth. Luke 12:15
And the Pharisees also, who were covetous, heard all these things: and
they derided him. And he said unto them, Ye are they which justify
yourselves before men; but God knoweth your hearts: for that which is
highly esteemed among men is abomination in the sight of God. Luke
16:14-15
Beware!
