"LYING to the HOLY SPIRIT!"

"Then Jesus said, If you abide in My word, you are my disciples indeed. And you shall know the truth and the truth shall make you free." 

                                                                       

                                                                       (John 8:31-32)

I believe that many Christians lie to and on the Holy Spirit because they don't view the Holy Spirit as God. There is no fear on behalf of the perpetrators. Knowing that the father of all lies is Satan (John 8:44), unsuspecting Christians fall prey to his ONLY "cheap magic trick"... "DECEPTION."

The TRUTH (Christ) can only make you free once you make a definitive commitment to transform your sin nature into a spirit-led, holy nature. If you abide in His WORD (Christ), it won't stop people from lying to you, but it will prevent you from believing the lie and being induced into committing sinful behavior, thoughts or deeds.

Be leery of people, no matter what title is in front of their name, who tell you something that the Holy Spirit told them to tell you; or that they just received a "fresh word" from the throne room of grace; or that the Holy Ghost "showed" them something about you in a dream; and especially if they "charge you" for the revelation (or "lie" which  is more than likely the case) in the form of a fee, tithe, offering or donation.

People lie on the Holy Spirit:

• To act like they have a deep relationship with God;
• To appear more "spiritual" than they actually are; 
• Because they are genuinely not AFRAID of God's wrath; and,
• Because they do not study or meditate on God's word.

There are many individual and corporate abuses committed against the Holy Spirit (HS). They include, but are not limited to:

• Grieving the HS
• Resisting the HS
• Quenching the HS
• Rebelling against the HS
• Deception in Teaching
• Manipulation in Preaching
• Practicing witchcraft in any form and attributing those acts to or from God.

God's judgement in response to abuses against the Holy Spirit can be devastating and God still kills people! Don't get it twisted, He is the same God of the Old Testament. It is ONLY the Presence of His Holy Spirit, not only in the earth realm but inside of every Believer, that quells His fury! He has demonstrated on several occasions that He has no problem destroying the earth and starting over again!

"Don't be deceived, God is not mocked. For whatever a man sows, that to shall he also reap." (Galatians 6:7)
