Scriptures That Have Been Misinterpreted [Repeat] 10-7-25

The message posted yesterday was interrupted and delayed. I am repeating it because somebody really needs to know the truth when it comes to certain scriptures. The enemy wants to keep God’s people ignorant of the truth to keep them from walking in victory and being effective in ministry.

The Judgment Seat of Christ versus the great white throne judgment

Last week the messages were about parables which are short stories to bring about a spiritual truth. Today there will be proof of what the parables meant. Many people think that with each parable the people were going to hell. That is not true! First of all, no where does thee Bible say these people were cast into hell/lake of fire. They were cast into outer darker which means a loss of rewards because they were not faithful to their call,

Warning: Please look carefully at words and divide the Word of Truth.

1)      Are the people of the world (unsaved) enemies or a friend of Jesus?

 Whoever therefore wants to be a friend of the world makes himself an enemy of God (James 4:4).

2)      Is Jesus everybody’s LORD?

Although one day in the future, that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of those in heaven, and of those on earth, and of those under the earth, and that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father (Philippians 2:10-11). Jesus is LORD to those who are born again (Romans 10:9-10, Ephesians 2:8-9).

3)      Are the virgins Christ’s brides?

Only those who are born again are called the bride of Christ.  Let us be glad and rejoice and give Him glory, for the marriage of the Lamb has come, and His wife has made herself ready.” And to her it was granted to be arrayed in fine linen, clean and bright, for the fine linen is the righteous acts of the saints. (Revelation 19:7-9).

4)      Did Jesus (the Master) give talents (gifts) to the unsaved?

Look carefully! The Master was symbolic of Jesus who came and distributed talents (gifts) to those who were born again; great while later He came back for them to give account of their stewardship (what He had given them to manage- they were to invest into the kingdom). This represents the Judgment Seat of Christ where all born again believers were judged for their faithfulness (Matthew 25:21-23).

5)      Are the Unsaved at the Wedding Feast?

Remember the king had His servants to go and beckon (this is witnessing the Gospel) to the wedding feast (Matthew 22:1-11). This was symbolic of those who were born again, but they had not prepared themselves, they were not properly dressed (Revelation 19:7-9).

The Judgment Seat of Christ versus the great white throne judgment

The Judgement Seat of Christ- This for all born again believers to give account of their deeds (good and faithful or bad) (Romans 14:12, 1 Corinthians 3:11-15, 2 Corinthians 5:10, Hebrews 9:27). The faithful will be greatly rewarded; the unfaithful believers will be with Jesus, but they cannot be rewarded if they are not faithful.

The great white throne judgment- Then I saw a great white throne and Him who sat on it……..And they were judged, each one according to his works. Then Death and Hades were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death. and anyone not found written in the Book of Life was cast into the lake of fire (Revelation 20:11-15); the more evil done, the greater the torment.

Now that you have read this message, there is no reason to continue misquoting these scriptures or any of the Word of God. The Key to studying is to search the scriptures and see what makes se what make sense and what doesn’t make sense. Why would God give specific scriptures for different situations? The Lord is precise, and being His people He wants us to be precise.
