For Ministers Preaching From The Textus Receptus.
(Personal note.)

"For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world." 1 John 2:16

First of all it is important to know the difference between discussion and dialogue (see the issue "The Telltale Sign"). They are not the same. Discussion is of "the Father." Where the Father or the Word of God (being told) has the final say (Christ Jesus responsing with "It is written ..."). Dialogue is "of the world," where the flesh or "sense experience" (stimulus-response) has the final say (the woman in the garden in Eden establishing behavior upon her "sense perception"). The "Textus Receptus," which is the Hebrew and Greek source for the Luther, Tyndale, Geneva, King James bibles, found in the Strongs Concordance, where the copyists, wanting you to have the same words that Moses and the Apostle Paul wrote down, copied characters (with many check-test) instead of words to avoid changing the text (God's Word itself being more important than man's opinion of it).

"It is written, Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God." Matthew 4:4

Carl Rogers, in his book on becoming a person: A Therapist View of Psychotherapy wrote: "Prior to therapy the person is prone to ask himself, 'What would my parents want me to do?" During the process of therapy the individual comes to ask himself, 'What does it mean to me?'" In other words, prior to the believer going "I feel" and "I think" when it came to the Word of God, he accepted it as is, by faith. Now "What can I get out of this for me?" replaces "What is the right thing to do?" By the Sunday school teacher asking him how he "felt" and "what he thought" regarding a verse in the Bible, the Word of God became subject to his carnal desires, that is it became subject to 'change,' that is it became subject to his (that is man's) opinion. Parental authority, where the parent has the final say correlates to discussion ("I KNOW because I have been told"). The child's carnal desires, subject to the flesh and the world that stimulates it correlates to dialogue ("I feel" and "I think").

"I can of mine own self do nothing: as I hear, I judge: and my judgment is just; because I seek not mine own will, but the will of the Father which hath sent me." John 5:30

"For I have not spoken of myself; but the Father which sent me, he gave me a commandment, what I should say, and what I should speak. And I know that his commandment is life everlasting: whatsoever I speak therefore, even as the Father said unto me, so I speak." John 12:47-50

"For whosoever shall do the will of my Father which is in heaven, the same is my brother, and sister, and mother." Matthew 12:50

"Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven." Matthew 7:21

"And call no man your father upon the earth: for one is your Father, which is in heaven." Matthew 23:9

There were two pathways for copying. That of discussion, where the copyists wanted to keep the current copy true to the original text and those of dialogue who wanted to make the copy subject to contemporary thought—making the word of God subjective. The latter corrupting the scriptures, making them subject to the interpretation of men, subject to the flesh. This is the pathway of the Alexandrian or Gnostic copyists, the pathway of the Catholic "Church" and the contemporary "Church."

Karl Marx, in his 4th Thesis on Feuerbach wrote: "Once the earthly family is discovered to be the secret of the Holy family, the former must then itself be destroyed [vernichtet, that is annihilated, that is negated] in theory and in practice."

Those "of and for the world," that is Marxists want their carnal nature to control their life, in defiance to God and His Word. This is where dialogue, when it comes to behavior comes in. Protestantism was based upon the Textus Receptus, where doing right and not wrong according to established commands, rules, facts, and truth has the final say, which requires discussion, if there are any questions with the Word of God having the final say. The Marxist Max Horkheimer, who was for a time director of the Institute of Social Research ("The Frankfurt School") in his book Vernunft and Selbsterhaltung; in English. Reasoning and Self Preservation wrote: "Protestantism was the strongest force in the extension of cold rational individualism."

In doing your best as unto the Lord and the Priesthood of all believers, faith in and obedience to God, the Father, and His son Jesus Christ, that is individualism, under God supersedes relationship with man, that is the approval of man, which requires compromise. Discussion associates with fellowshipping with the Father, his Son Jesus Christ, and all who believe and follow the Son, doing the Father's will, which requires no compromise. ". . . and truly our fellowship is with the Father, and with his Son Jesus Christ." 1 John 1:3

Dialogue, on the other hand associates with getting along with man, which requires compromise. The Marxist Jürgen Habermas, one of the youngest and probably smartest of the "Frankfurt School" members in his book Knowledge & Human Interest, Chapter Three: The Idea of the Theory of Knowledge as Social Theory wrote (regarding the effect dialogue has on a person in a group setting): "In the dialogic relation of recognizing oneself in the other, they experience the common ground of their existence."

Karl Marx wrote, as quoted in John Lewis book The Life and Teachings of Karl Marx: " It is not individualism that fulfills the individual, on the contrary it destroys him. Society is the necessary framework through which freedom and individuality are made realities."

In his 6th Thesis on Feuerbach Karl Marx wrote: "The real nature of man is the totality of social relations."

Martin Luther wrote of the effect dialogue (man's opinion) has upon the Christian: "Miserable Christians, whose words and faith still depend on the interpretations of men and who expect clarification from them! This is frivolous and ungodly. The Scriptures are common to all, and are clear enough in respect to what is necessary for salvation and are also obscure enough for inquiring minds ... let us reject the word of man." (Martin Luther, Luther's Works: Vol. 32, Career of the Reformer)

"I greatly fear that the universities, unless they teach the Holy Scriptures diligently and impress them on the young students, are wide gates to hell. I would advise no one to send his child where the Holy Scriptures are not supreme. Every institution that does not unceasingly pursue the study of God's word becomes corrupt." (Luther's Works: Vol. 1, The Christian in Society: p. 207)

Man is not to live by dialogue alone, which deals with his likes and dislikes (the type of bread he likes or does not like), but by discussion, where the Father, that is where the Word of God has the final say.

Carl Rogers then wrote: "Experience is, for me, the highest authority." "Neither the Bible nor the prophets, neither the revelations of God can take precedence over my own direct experience." "In this process the individual becomes more open to his experience. It is the opposite of defensiveness or rigidity. His beliefs are not rigid, he can tolerate ambiguity."

"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 16:15

"The heart is deceitful above all things [thinking pleasure, that is lust is the standard for "good" instead of doing the Father's will], and desperately wicked [hating anyone preventing, that is inhibiting or blocking it from enjoying the carnal pleasures of the 'moment' it lusts after, hating anyone threatening to take or taking it away]: who can know it?" Jeremiah 17:9 The unregenerate (carnal) heart (the Karl Marx in you) cannot see its hatred toward the Father's authority as being evil, that is "wicked," that is "desperately wicked" because its lust for pleasure is standing in the way, 'justifying' the hate. (Mark 7:21-23

All of education has moved from discussion, where established commands, rules, facts, and truth are enforced, to dialogue, where the child's carnal nature or "sense experience" is the foundation from which to learn ("Bloom's Taxonomies,"). While the minister might be preaching the Word of God from translations from the Textus Receptus, the congregation is learning (in the classroom and the workplace) to think through dialogue, making their interpretation of the Word of God (when they read or think upon it) subject to human reasoning. All contemporary translations are from the Metzger, Nestle, and Aland Greek, which are subject to the Alexandrian and Gnostic copies, that is dialogue-based text. While a person can come to the Lord via contemporary translations they cannot grow in the Word of God as confusion sets in, which was the gnostic copyist's agenda (more money and self 'justification' made there).

Wilfred Bion, in his book A Memoir of the Future explained the agenda is to use dialogue, when it comes to behavior to "prevent someone who KNOWS from filling the empty space."

Minister, beware. Before you KNOW, you have to be told, and accept what you have been told as is, by faith.

"So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God." Romans 10:17

"But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him." Hebrews 11:6

"Therefore being justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ:" Romans 5:1

"For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast." Ephesians 2:8, 9

"Knowing that a man is not justified by the works of the law, but by the faith of Jesus Christ, ... for by the works of the law shall no flesh be justified." Galatians 2:16

"I had not known sin, but by the law: for I had not known lust, except the law had said, Thou shalt not covet." Romans 7:7

The world today has rejected the law (being told what is right and what is wrong behavior) altogether, which is the result of using dialogue when it comes to defining and establishing behavior. If the minister is not aware of this, dialogue will come into the assembly, 'liberating' the congregation from the fear of God. Right under his nose. While the law can save no one, without it we can not know we need a savior.

Irvin D. Yalom, in his book The Theory and Practice of Group Psychotherapy wrote "There is no type of past behavior too deviant for a group to accept once therapeutic group norms are established." When you tolerate unrighteousness, unrighteousness becomes the "norm."

"The transgression of the wicked saith within my heart, that there is no fear of God before his eyes. For he flattereth himself in his own eyes, until his iniquity be found to be hateful. The words of his mouth are iniquity and deceit: he hath left off to be wise, and to do good. He deviseth mischief upon his bed; he setteth himself in a way that is not good; he abhorreth not evil." Psalms 36:1-4

"For the wicked boasteth of his heart's desire, and blesseth the covetous, whom the LORD abhorreth. The wicked, through the pride of his countenance, will not seek after God: God is not in all his thoughts." Psalms 10:3, 4

"For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears; And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables." 2 Timothy 4:3, 4

"For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, Without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good, Traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God; Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away." 2 Timothy 3:2-5

"And what concord hath Christ with Belial? or what part hath he that believeth with an infidel? And what agreement hath the temple of God with idols? for ye are the temple of the living God; as God hath said, I will dwell in them, and walk in them; and I will be their God, and they shall be my people. Wherefore come out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord, and touch not the unclean thing; and I will receive you, And will be a Father unto you, and ye shall be my sons and daughters, saith the Lord Almighty." 2 Corinthians 6:15-18

End Notes

Facilitators of 'change,' that is psychologists, that is behavioral "scientists," that is "group psychotherapists," that is Marxists (Transformational Marxists)—all being the same in method or formula—are using the dialoguing of opinions to a consensus (affirmation) process, that is dialectic 'reasoning' ('reasoning' from and through the students "feelings" of the 'moment, that is from and through their "lust" for pleasure and their hate of restraint, in the "light" of their desire for group approval, that is affirmation and fear of group rejection) in the "group grade," "safe zone-space-place," "Don't be negative, be positive," "open ended, non-directed," soviet style, brainwashing (washing the Father's authority from the children's thoughts and actions, that is "theory and practice," negating their having a guilty conscience, which the Father's authority engenders for doing wrong, disobeying, sinning in the process—called "the negation of negation" since the Father's authority and the guilty conscience, being negative to the child's carnal nature, is negated in dialogue—in dialogue, opinion, and the consensus process there is no Father's authority, that is no established, absolute command, rule, facts, or truth to be accepted as is, by faith and obeyed; there is only the person's carnal desires, that is lusts of the past and the present being verbally expressed and 'justified'), inductive 'reasoning' ('reasoning' from-through the students "feelings,[ that is their natural inclination to "lust" after the carnal pleasures of the 'moment'—dopamine emancipation—which the world stimulates, that is their "self interest, that is their "sense experience," selecting "appropriate information"—excluding, ignoring, or resisting, that is rejecting any "inappropriate" information, that is established command, rule, fact, or truth that gets in the way of their desired outcome, that is pleasure—in determining right from wrong behavior), "Bloom's Taxonomy," "affective domain," French Revolution (Liberté, Égalité, Fraternité) classroom "environment" in order (as in "new" world order) to 'liberate' children from parental authority, that is from the Father's authority system (the Patriarchal Paradigm)—as predators, charlatans, pimps, pedophiles, seducing, deceiving, and manipulating them as chickens, rats, and dogs, that is treating them as natural resource ("human resource") in order to convert them into 'liberals,' socialists, globalists, so they, 'justifying' their "self" before one another, can do wrong, disobey, sin, that is can "lust" after the carnal pleasures of the 'moment' that the world stimulates, with impunity.

"Thus saith the LORD, Stand ye in the ways, and see, and ask for the old paths, where is the good way, and walk therein, and ye shall find rest for your souls. But they said, We will not walk therein. Also I set watchmen over you, saying, Hearken to the sound of the trumpet. But they said, We will not hearken." Jeremiah 6:16, 17

Home schooling material, co-ops, conferences, etc., are joining in the same praxis, fulfilling Immanuel Kant's as well as Georg Hegel's, Karl Marx's, and Sigmund Freud's agenda of using the pattern or method of Genesis 3:1-6, that is "self" 'justification, that is dialectic (dialogue) 'reasoning, that is 'reasoning' from-through your "feelings, that is your carnal desires of the 'moment' which are being stimulated by the world (including your desire for approval from others, with them affirming your carnal nature) in order to negate Hebrews 12:5-11, that is the Father's authority, that is having to humble, deny, die to, control, discipline, capitulate your "self" (your lusts) in order to do the Father's will, negating Romans 7:14-25, that is your having a guilty conscience when you do wrong, disobey, sin, thereby negating your having to repent before the Father for your doing wrong, disobedience, sins—which is the real agenda.

"And for this cause [because men, as "children of disobedience," 'justify' their "self," that is 'justify' their love of "self" and the world, that is their love of the carnal pleasures of the 'moment' (dopamine emancipation) which the world stimulates over and therefore against the Father's authority] God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie [that pleasure is the standard for "good" instead of doing the Father's will]: That they all might be damned who believed not the truth [in the Father and in His Son, Jesus Christ], but had pleasure in unrighteousness [in their "self" and the pleasures of the 'moment,' which the world stimulates]." 2 Thessalonians 2:11, 12
