Disclaimer
The SpiritLessons / DivineRevelations website receives many new Testimonies
from around the world, by people who testify of Revelations by
Jesus. These testimonies are very valuable, but like the 1st-century
church, they needed to refine out what exactly was from the Lord and
what was not.
On the
DivineRevelations site, we are NOT canonizing scripture here. The
Bible is sufficient! We were never given permission by God to
add His scripture.
We are just investigating Face to Face encounters with Jesus Christ.
None of these testimonies have gone through the rigorous,
thorough, centuries-long testing that the Bible has gone through. If something
contradicts with clear scripture, please note that in the comment
section, and reject it. I never allow people's revelations to
contradict verbatim scripture. Revelation is not given to establish
doctrine, but it can give weight to one interpretation over another. If any revelation contradicts clear
scripture, I reject it. The Bible is my foundation of doctrine.
But I will allow revelations to challenge my interpretation of
scripture. And I will not pridefully hold up my interpretation of
scripture as infallible.
Things to remember when viewing revelations.
1. There MAY be mistranslations from the original testimony, or places where
an author is just not clear enough in their
description.
2. Try to see if there are any contradictions between different
revelations of Jesus Christ. You can trust what the Lord says to his
prophets, but you can't always trust how these prophets convey that
message. I've concluded that if 2 prophets have
conflicting visions, I will default to the message of the more
mature, experienced and trained prophet. Untrained prophets often
spread confusion into the Church, though their gifting is real,
sometimes they just blunder in their administration of it. 3. Also remember that we don't care about the author's opinions, ideas or
speculation. We only really care about what Jesus told them.
There are many good people of God who can have misunderstandings in
their opinions. No one's opinions are perfect. Hopefully, they
won't share opinions in their testimonies, we just want the FACTS!
WHAT WAS THE MESSAGE FROM JESUS?
We ask the author NOT to mix in their personal ideas
with revelation. (That would mislead people.)
4.
Also, regarding sin, remember that the Lord weighs the Motives of
the Heart. Two people can do the same thing, and the Lord judges
differently. Therefore if one person claims an action can
lead a person to Hell, we're looking for a clear definition of what
that sin is, not just a vague description. And we need a biblical
reference for any such judgment that would send a person to hell.
i.e. One revelation may show people in Hell for getting drunk, and
yet someone may say Jesus drank, therefore it can't be a sin. God
judges differently than we do.
5. If satan, our enemy, is trying to sneak in any false revelation
(i.e. Wearing pants leads women to Hell), we need to correctly
identify what it is, and start weeding it out. Deception can be
cloaked among the truth, to mislead us, so we need to pray for
discernment. We have been warned by Prophets that in the demonic realm (2nd
Heaven), satan has
a fake heaven set up, as well as a fake hell, and he can take people
there (in real encounters) to promote deceptions regarding the real Heaven (3rd Heaven)
and Hell. (I've personally seen the fake hell.) This can make it
very hard for us to discern what is divine, and what is not. But we
must make the attempt to correctly divide the true from the false.
6. The Grace, Blessings, and Mercy of God; all the Promises,
Goodness and Glory of God is meaningless to the person who ends up
in Hell. He forfeits every good thing. Therefore, getting a clear
understanding of the Walls of Salvation is critical.
So get your bibles, pray hard and hammer out these testimonies.
