“Present your case,” the Lord says.
“Bring forward your strong arguments,”
The King of Jacob says.
Let them bring forth and declare to us what is going to take place;
As for the former events, declare what they were,
That we may consider them and know their outcome.
Or announce to us what is coming;
Declare the things that are going to come afterward,
That we may know that you are gods;
Indeed, do good or evil, that we may anxiously look about us and fear together.
Behold, you are of no account,
And your work amounts to nothing;
He who chooses you is an abomination.” (Isaiah 41:21-24 NASB1995)


This is in reference to false gods, to the idols of human flesh, to people who might today claim to be Christians, and to be followers of Christ, but who may do so in order to deceive and to turn people away from Christ and from his gospel. And these people may be pastors of what are called “churches,” many of which are businesses incorporated (merged with, partnered with) the world and with the government, which are being marketed to the world just like any other business. So they dilute the gospel to not offend flesh.

And so they teach a gospel message which leads many people to remain dead in their sin, still under bondage to sin, and not freed from their slavery to sin by genuine God-gifted faith in Jesus Christ, which is not of our own doing. For so many of them are teaching that all we have to do is to claim faith in Jesus and now all our sins are forgiven, and heaven is secured us, but regardless of how we live, in practice. But Jesus taught that we must deny self, die to sin, and follow him in obedience, if we want to see God.

So they are predicting a future for people which does not exist, in reality. They are promising them forgiveness of all sins and heaven as their eternal destiny, but based in a lie, and not in the truth. And they are not teaching the gospel as Jesus and as his New Testament apostles taught it, but they are denying that truth in favor of a lie. For they are not teaching that Jesus died to free us from our addiction to sin so we might now live holy lives, pleasing to God, in his service, and as his servants and witnesses.

Instead they are giving their listeners carte blanche to continue in deliberate and habitual sin against God with no hope of change; with no hope of heart transformation of the Spirit of God out of bondage to sin so that they can now walk in obedience to our Lord and to his commands (New Covenant). They are giving a false image of what it means to be a Christian and a follower of Christ by convincing so many people that being a Christian does not require that they put their sins to death and that they now obey God.

So, they have it all wrong. They don’t know why Jesus gave his life up for us on that cross, or if they do, they are living in denial. For he put our sins to death with him on that cross that we might now die to sin and live for God in walks of obedience to his commands, and in surrender to his will and purpose for our lives. We must be those who have (past) and who are presently continuing to put sin to death, by the Spirit, and who are walking in obedience to our Lord, in practice, in the power of God at work within us.

For if we continue living in sin, and not in walks of obedience to our Lord, contrary to what many of these false “gods” are teaching, we will not inherit eternal life with God, even if we have professed faith in Jesus Christ. And if we are following Jesus in obedience, and if sin is no longer our practice, our past no longer defines us, regardless of what we may have done. What defines who we are, and what our relationship with God looks like, is how we are now living in the present, either in obedience, or in disobedience to God.

For Jesus Christ taught that to come to him we must deny self, take up our cross daily (die daily to sin), and follow (obey) him. For if we hold on to living in sin and for self, we will lose our lives for eternity. But if we deny self, die daily to sin, by the Spirit, and we walk in obedience to our Lord and to his commands, in his power, then we have eternal life with God. For not everyone who calls him “Lord” will enter the kingdom of heaven, but the one DOING (obeying) the will of God (see Luke 9:23-26; Matthew 7:21-23).

[Matthew 7:13-14,21-23; Luke 9:23-26; John 1:12-13; John 6:44; John 10:27-30; Acts 26:18; Romans 2:6-8; Romans 6:1-23; Romans 8:1-14; 1 Corinthians 10:1-22; Galatians 5:16-24; Ephesians 2:8-10; Ephesians 4:17-32; Ephesians 5:3-6; Titus 2:11-14; Hebrews 3:1-19; Hebrews 4:1-13; Hebrews 12:1-2; 1 Peter 2:24; 1 John 1:5-10; 1 John 2:3-6; 1 John 3:4-10]

“Come to Me all you who thirst; come to waters.
Listen to Me, and eat what’s good today,
And your soul will delight in richest of fare.
Give ear to Me, and you will live.
I have made an eternal covenant with you.
Wash in the blood of the Lamb.”

Seek the Lord while He may be found; call on Him.
Let the wicked forsake his way, in truth.
Let him turn to the Lord, and he will receive mercy.
Freely, God pardons him.
“For My thoughts are not your thoughts,
Nor are your ways My ways,”
declares the Lord, our God.

“My word that goes out of My mouth is truthful.
It will not return to Me unfulfilled.
My word will accomplish all that I desire,
And achieve the goal I intend.
You will go in joy and be led forth in peace.
The mountains will burst into song… before you,
And all of the trees clap their hands.”

I would offer

One thing I'm learning I believe is how the word god, gods are used in respect to the first and foremost commandment. Violate the first loving commandment violate them all .(ten)

In parables ten in multiples 100, 1,000,10,000 etc represents all .One lost ten thousand million lost

Using two witnesses to represent God not seen has spoken using the things seen (law of faith) Just like the two-tablet written by the finger of Christ on both sides with no room for oral traditions of dying mankind

Exodus 20:3 Thou shalt have no other gods before me.

Deuteronomy 5:7Thou shalt have none other gods before me.

In that way gods as people

Deuteronomy 6:14 Ye shall not go after other gods, of the gods of the people
T
he Pharisee with Sadducees two sects that served lying sign and wonder, wonder,wonder after like Nicodemus. When lovingly commanded to wonder or marvel not but rather believe prophecy

They acused Jesus the Son of man of blasphemy saying a mere man is etwanl God .Then Jesus the Son of man with words from his Holy Father defined the word god .as sons of God Therefore as gods we are not to have our own selves before him Neither our own selves ou loving wife.

Ecclesiastes 4:12And if one prevail against him, two shall withstand him; and a threefold cord is not quickly broken.

Three denoting the end of the matter the. . . Amen

John 10:34-36;Jesus answered them, Is it not written in your law, I (Christ) said, Ye are gods?;If he called them gods, unto whom the word of God came, and the scripture cannot be broken;;Say ye of him, whom the Father hath sanctified, and sent into the world, Thou blasphemest; because I said, I am the Son of God?

Gives a new meaning to Abba, God father

Garee, thank you for taking the time to read the above post, and for taking the time to share your thoughts on this subject of false gods.
