Considering the diversity use and application of the Name of Jesus by millions of people in the whole world today, it had become very necessary to help many distinguish between the real Christ and the abused and fake one.
How can we differentiate between the True and the false of the Name Jesus? Or how can one know the difference between the fake and the genuine Christ?
The answer is not difficult at all. We must simply make reference to Christ Jesus Himself.
And how is that done?
1. You can not find the truth in a denominational doctrine, except the church truly and strictly upholds to the teaching and lifestyle of the Lord Jesus Christ.
You will never find it in someone’s ministry or life who had been misled or wrongly influenced by self centred teachers or false prophets.
2. You will not find the truth of Christ Jesus by just becoming an errand steward to other people who will always place stringent demands on your being responsible to them than God.
3. The True Christ is not in the circle of systems which do not give the Holy Spirit place in their lives and activities.
4. The Name above all other names, which is Jesus Christ the Son of God cannot associate with where biblical truth is despised, ridiculed, resisted and outrightly denied or rejected.
5. Where the world’s influences had become the imitation of the church, the true Christ can’t fit in there. For example, secular education replacing the Holy Spirit’s wisdom and knowledge. Divine healing, that is power to heal by the gift of the Holy Spirit is subtly or outrightly resisted and denied.
6. The works of Christ and even greater works (John 14:12) are no longer observed let alone to be practiced. Forgiveness, Love, Righteousness, Patience etc comparing the works of the flesh with the fruit of the Spirit according to Galatians 5:18-26 is not taken serious, but much is hypocritical.
7. Until the above fraudulent attitude towards the WORD of Truth in Christ is totally removed from the church, there will never be a true representation of Yahweh among His people and creation.
