Scripture and comment:
John 6:44-45 BSB
44No one can come to Me unless the Father who sent Me draws him, and I will raise him up at the last day. 45It is written in the Prophets: ‘And they will all be taught by God.’ Everyone who has heard the Father and learned from Him comes to Me
Comment: God draws us and then refines us superseding man’s organizations and teaches us directly by Holy Spirit.
John 14:6-7 BSB
6Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life. 7 If you had known Me, you would know My Father as well. From now on you do know Him and have seen Him.
Comment: No organization here. Just you and Jesus and the Father and the Holy Spirit
John 14:15-17 BSB
15If you love Me, you will keep My commandments. 16And I will ask the Father, and He will give you another Advocate to be with you forever— 17the Spirit of truth. The world cannot receive Him, because it neither sees Him nor knows Him. But you do know Him, for He abides with you and will be in you.
Comment: Are you a Truth Seeker? Your heart knows. If you are, you can survive anything, including a cult. Give your heart to Jesus now and know his love for you that does not depend on an organization’s dictates or constructs. Get free of their bondage for they do not teach the Truth.
Ephesians 3:14-19 BSB
14for this reason I bow my knees before the Father, 15from whom every family in heaven and on earth derives its name. 16I ask that out of the riches of His glory He may strengthen you with power through His Spirit in your inner being, 17so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith. Then you, being rooted and grounded in love, 18will have power, together with all the saints, to comprehend the length and width and height and depth 19of the love of Christ, and to know this love that surpasses knowledge, that you may be filled with all the fullness of God
Comment: If the GB promoted Love over knowledge instead of Knowledge over love, the congregation could live in peace and praise Jehovah God for his Son Jesus with shouts and testimony of God’s goodness. The GB does NOT teach that Christ dwells in our hearts.
Proverbs 8:17 BSB
17I love those who love me, and those who seek me early shall find me.
Comment: I have been seeking him and I did let him into my heart and now I live for him again despite my faith being derailed for 30 years.
Titus 3:5-8 BSB
5He saved us, not by the righteous deeds we had done, but according to His mercy, through the washing of new birth and renewal by The Holy Spirit. 6This is the Spirit He poured out on us abundantly through Jesus Christ our Savior, 7so that, having been justified by His grace, we would become heirs with the hope of eternal life. 8This saying is trustworthy.
Comment: Even if we sin, or we had the wind knocked out of us by a false teacher, we can recover with help of The Holy Spirit, as he will renew us. Turn towards God once again and let Jesus heal your life for this is why the Father sent him to us: to be Our HEALER.
