THE F.R.S.
(The False
Religious System)
The False
Religious System is the 'OTHER GOSPEL'. It's Mystery Babylon, it's the Mother of
Harlots. No believer who embraces the fundamental knowledge of Jesus Christ
suspects that THEY are in that system.
Let me
rephrase that, no pastor who embraces the fundamental knowledge of Jesus Christ
would suspect that THEY were preaching that other gospel. It's one thing to
say that the universal Body of Christ needs to 'come together' and quite another
to say that the universal Body of Christ has been
taken by deception and has
become part of the False Religious System and is actively preaching that other
gospel from their pulpit every Sunday.
But God is sending out the
word of warning to the pastors. Dennis Cramer of Dennis Cramer Ministries sent
out a letter of warning to the universal Body of Christ after God gave him a
dream. He wrote:
"I
recently had a powerful dream from the Holy Spirit. It literally shook me to my
core! I believe it was a warning to the universal body of Christ...including all
prophetic believers...and especially to His prophets.
In the
dream I was standing before a large group of believers preparing to preach a
typical sermon-nothing seemed out of the ordinary. So, I opened my Bible and
looked down at my notes to begin the sermon. When I looked at my text for the
sermon I was dumbfounded to discover it was not a verse
from the
Bible! I had no idea where this extra-biblical sentence came from, but I knew
immediately it was not from the Bible. That's all that mattered! It was not
from the Bible! And I knew I could not preach it as if it came from the Bible!
I felt awkward, embarrassed, and somehow responsible.
Oddly, it
was a single sentence from some historical writings which some have associated
with the Bible, but which are clearly not a part of the canon of Scripture.
The sentence was extra-biblical...not an actual quote from God's Written Word.
I don't know how it got in my notes and I knew I certainly didn't put it there
myself. But there it was and I was forced to deal with it."

This
minister wasn't preaching from what is considered the 'unauthorized texts'. His
sermon was the 'typical' - nothing -out - of - the - ordinary sermon. He had his
Bible open. God wasn't warning Him to stay in the King James Bible. God was
warning him to stop CATABOLIZING scripture.
CATABOLISM (word of knowledge)----- (Webster's dictionary) The wrestling of a
word from it's true signification; the employment of a word under a false form
through misapprehension regarding origin.
Which
words do we see in the bible? We see the words grace, faith, righteousness,
baptism, tongues, regeneration, sanctification, justification, mediation,
remission, propitiation, saved, holiness,
covenant,
overcoming sin, armour of God, prayer, truth, anointing, gifts, callings,
assembly, believe, saved, fruits, edification, power, ect.
These
words have a divine ORIGIN and MEANING, and a divine FUNCTION. These words have
meaning only as they relate to Jesus Christ and His redemption. These words are
just a few of the many words found in the Bible that have been catabolized. The
False Religious System has taken over the
universal
Body of Christ and has grossly misapplied these words, and in doing so, have
created the other gospel.
The
universal Body of Christ has written and read many books over the past centuries
which have tried to explain what these words mean. As you well know, there are a
number of conflicting ideas. The older the explanation, the more 'orthodox' the
doctrine is believed to be, and therefore it is received by the next generation
as 'sound doctrine', and regarded as 'sacred'.
Soon, it
is not the divine inspiration of grace through a calling that delivers pure
doctrine to the Church, but men and women who have followed the path of
historical orthodoxy. Here you see the grossness of the sin of the False
Religious System. They have turned the truth of God into a lie.
Historical
orthodoxy is pure catabolism, and produces spiritual blindness. Ministers have
misapprehended both the origin and significance of doctrine and have wrestled
God's truth from its true significance.
Ministers
have grappled with truth, trying to understand the foundation knowledge by their
struggle with it. As if the struggle itself (long study into languages and
syntax, and fasting for revelation) would produce
sound
doctrine, but it does not.
Doctrine
comes through the calling of apostles.To misapprehend means to take in the wrong
sense. God uses the words we find in the Bible and makes one application
concerning Jesus Christ, and the F.R.S. has taken these same words and created
another application with the words, trying to apply
that
rendering to Jesus Christ.. Every foundation doctrine has been catabolized. It
is the catabolization of scripture that creates the OTHER gospel, and ALL
ministers in the F.R.S. catabolize scripture.
In the
dream this minister felt embarrassed and somehow responsible for preaching that
'other' gospel. That 'historical writing' which some have associated with the
Bible (which they all preach from the pulpit) is merely the doctrine of man
which they accepted as 'inspired' or 'credible' because it is sourced to
historical orthodoxy.
What this
minister did not notice is that what he accepted as historical orthodoxy is NOT
sourced to true orthodoxy which comes through the original apostles and the true
living apostles today.
The
'other' gospel has a sound historical background, but is not what the original
apostles taught. What was that other gospel doing in his notes? Is it in YOUR
notes? And what is the warning?
The other
gospel was in this minister's notes because this false knowledge was handed down
to him from the previous generation. And if you are in the F.R.S. then this
false knowledge has also been handed down to you. The warning that God was
giving through this dream is the same the apostle
Paul gave,
that if you preach the other gospel, you are removing yourself from God.
Gal.1:6, "I marvel that you are so soon REMOVED from Him (God) that called you
into the grace of Christ unto an-OTHER gospel."
I need to
repeat again in this article that the other gospel did not change the
fundamental (essential) knowledge of Jesus Christ which many call the 'cardinal
truths', but changed the foundation knowledge of Jesus Christ.
The grace
of God is in the foundation knowledge of Christ Jesus because this is where you
FUNCTION as a christian, this is where the operation of God is; this is where
the redeeming qualities of Jesus Christ are experienced daily; this is where
Jesus mediates for you; this is where you experience the effectual working of
the Holy Spirit. If you remove the foundation stone from your preaching, you are
removing yourself from the grace of God, and you are not experiencing any of
these things.
I am SURE
that you imagine that you experience these things.
I am SURE
that you quote the scriptures that speak about these things.
I am SURE
that you are agreeing with scripture and apply these things to yourself.
But I am
also SURE there is no living reality. There is no transaction taking place
between you and God.
Every
pastor and every christian feels that REMOVAL. Why can't they get that
'breakthrough'? Where is their 'first love'? Why isn't the Church meeting their
needs? Why are pastors burned out? Why are people leaving the Church. Why can't
they function? Why can't they overcome sin? Where is the next
deliverance meeting taking place?
As I said
in the beginning of this article, pastors do acknowledge that the universal Body
of Christ needs 'something', some kind of 'move of God' to bring the Body of
Christ together, but don't consider themselves as preaching the other gospel.
Do you
know that in February of 1996 40,000 pastors came together from all different
churches from all over the world to try to patch the Body of Christ together?
Although they have approached the problem from all different angles, there is
simply only ONE problem, they are not ONE in the faith. The 'other' gospel is
different than the gospel of Jesus Christ because the DOCTRINE is different.
Did the
meeting of 40,000 pastors do the trick? Is the universal Body of Christ NOW
bound together in ONE faith? No. But according to the reports, the Spirit of the
Lord 'moved' for 45 minutes. The reports were glowing. Yet the problem obviously
was not solved.
This lets
us know that the leaders (the pastors) are lost, not knowing where to look for
the remedy, hoping a 'manifestation' of some sorts will provide a miraculous
spiritual glue that will bring together the Body of Christ which is doctrinally
split. The pastors are honestly not looking for UNITY in the faith. One pastor
wrote, "Unity is not uniformity - we can be in unity and still be different!"
We are not
talking about 'cloning' every human being to act the same way. We're not talking
about a congregation of people who all have blond hair. We're not talking about
everyone liking the same sports or liking the same kinds of food.
We are
talking about the gospel of Jesus Christ!! We are talking about the UNITY of
the faith. The apostle Paul said, "...that you all speak the SAME THINGS, and
that there be NO DIVISION among you;
but that
you be PERFECTLY JOINED together in the SAME MIND and in the SAME JUDGMENT," I
Cor. 1:10.
The
apostle Paul is speaking of the doctrine of Christ. There IS uniformity in
truth. This is why the early Church embraced ONE doctrine.. Satan promises a
feigned unity. "You can have a unity and all still believe something different
about Jesus Christ." All pastors in the False Religious System have
believed that lie. Do YOU
believe it?
The
apostle Jude did not believe it. He wrote, "Earnestly contend for THE FAITH,"
Jude 3. Today christians can only contend for the fundamental knowledge of Jesus
Christ, but cannot contend for THE FAITH which is defined by the foundation
knowledge of Jesus Christ.
While
testifying to the glowing reports of 'God moving' among those 40,000 pastors who
met together, we hear that these same people are planning another meeting of
pastors from all over the world in February of 2003. They are preparing to
entertain 55,000 pastors. This 'move of God' will do no
more than
the last 'move of God' because these pastors are not interested in becoming ONE
in the faith.

IN
SUMMARY:
Those who
are in the False Religious System cannot provide the answer, they are still part
of the problem. While they say they are solving it, they prove over and over
again that they haven't solved it, and have no idea of what to do, or in what
direction the Spirit of God is moving.
Why was
Dennis Cramer dumbfounded in his dream when he saw that he was about to preach
the perverted gospel?
He was
dumbfounded because what he saw was beyond the scope of what he was prepared to
accept. God had opened his eyes. He had no doubt been praying, "God show me what
is wrong with the Church!" "Show me what I am doing wrong!" "God, show me what
to do, I'll do ANYTHING because I love you so much."
Poor
Dennis Cramer may not be able to accept the restoration of truth that God is
sending through apostles unless he prepares his heart. Can he loosen his grip on
the many false doctrines that he is hording in his chest? Be careful when you
pray, "Anything Lord!! I'll do anything!!"
Before you are too harsh on
this man, consider yourself. Are YOU ready to loosen YOUR grip on the false
knowledge that you have stored up in YOUR chest?
Doctrine
is THE one area where autonomy is loudly affirmed by all. The False Religious
System has agreed among themselves that anyone among them who agrees on the
essentials is given a lot of slack on the foundation doctrines (as long as they
give others the same courtesy).
Pastors
are willing to try new programs, to involve themselves in rigorous self
examination, to confess sin, to submit to the opinions of 'trained' people, to
hold different kinds of meetings (to move the meeting place to a tent, a home, a
new building); they are willing to adopt new policies (to change the order of
service and preach first, then sing; to 'allow' the gifts on Sunday as well as
Wednesday). They have gone so far as to laugh like a fool and bark like a dog.
BUT....... they are not willing to receive doctrine from a real apostle. They
won't do anything that asks them to sacrifice their imagined autonomy in
doctrine. They are willing to injure their dignity, but not their pride.
In the
F.R.S. your credentials are EARNED. The pastors have the praise and honor of
men. They have EARNED the respect of their colleagues (this is why the F.R.S.
put accountability in the man instead of in truth). Most are making a fair
living off the tithes. There is an entire structure that they have become
emotionally, and socially, and economically dependent on. The most important
being the 'sacred' set of rules that has always guided them, kept them on the
track they perceived to be 'God'.
The
private interpretation of scripture came through this system. To accept doctrine
that came through an apostle would mean coming out of this system and abandoning
the aspirations and principles that made you everything you are. To take THAT
step would indeed be dying to yourself.
God is not
asking for a show of hands. God is not calling for a vote. In the early Church
doctrine didn't come through pastors, it came through apostles. This is why God
is calling apostles and giving them the measure of grace to function as the
early apostles did in the area of doctrine. God will first reestablish the
original doctrine of Christ and then the function of the Body of Christ will
also come into alignment.
God is
raising up apostles who are not part of the False Religious System, who aren't
partaking of her sins. These apostles can't be bought and they won't compromise
truth. Through the dream that God gave to this minister we see that God is
saying that pastors are NOW forced to deal with the fact that
they can
no longer preach any other gospel.
We are
here to help you come out of the False Religious System. You don't need your
pastors permission. He doesn't own you, Jesus died for your sins. Write in to
let us know that you would like help in coming into the truth Body of Christ.
If you are
a pastor and willing to listen to the Spirit of God and come out of the F.R.S.,
we will help you through the transition.
