dear friends in Jesus, Who is real Jesus?Does that mean there are false Jesus'es?
In Matthew 4: 1-11,we see Jesus is tempted by the devil.A very notable thing is that devil uses the scriptures itself to attack Jesus.But Jesus is Word,and He answers promptly. That same old trick is still used by the same old devil to attack God's children,and it is astonishing so many people,including the faithful become victims to it.He uses the Word and misinterprets it.Those who are not really deep in faith and Word easily fall prey. Once I happened to chance upon a book which had a title which meant something like 'How to live in paradise' or something similar.The book was small,very attractive and said all about Jesus. But actually the book propogated false ideas about God's kingdom.It said Jesus had not risen from the dead etc.We may ignore the book.but there are many people who read such books and get carried away with its ideas.So I made an effort to see who wrote these books.And...I came to know this is really a trap even for the faithful. Incident 1: I personally know a friend of mine who,after reading a series of such books,stopped going to church after all.Now she says there is no God.The book actually starts with God and then ends with no God!She wouldn't listen to anything else... Incident 2: I was once sitting in a classroom when a junior of mine who is also a JesusYouth came in with the above book.He didn't know and was himself propogating this book! Incident 3: One day I went home and at night when I was sleeping,I had a dream.I saw that I was sleeping on the terrace of my house and a man threw a log on fire onto my house.I was just in time,and I caught the log and threw it down to the ground.Thus I prevented my house catching fire.I woke up sweating and disturbed in the morning. that same evening,two people came to my house.They were speaking to my father.I was listening and I heard the words'catholic''18th century''1st century' etc.I listened closely and found that they were these same people connected with this book...they come into Catholic homes and argue with people and change our beliefs.They speak against Mother Mary,they are very successful with people who have a little faith only.they take away the rest of it too.They make them non church goers first,slowly they break the entire family to pieces.I know living examples...So I immediately went to the front and asked them to get out.My father was alarmed.They started arguing with me.They said the Holy Spirit is only a dove and all that.When they started speaking against Mother Mary,I closed my ears and said"you can go,we have enough faith in God." You may be wondering why I was so wild.Well,many of my family members still don't believe in Jesus and if they followed this sect,it would be the last thing to shatter our family. to be contd................
