Peace in Christ.
We must NOT personally attack those who come to take the true Jesus out of the lives of those who are being deceived by them by the cutting off of their right ear as Simon Peter did in John 18.
We do not know who among them may obediently hear and believe in the Word of Truth when they hear it. The servant had a name. We must not personally attack them by naming them or they will not hear.
Joh 18:10 KJV
(10) Then Simon Peter having a sword drew it, and smote the high priest's servant, and cut off his right ear. The servant's name was Malchus.
Jesus can heal their hearing and can be saved by Him as signified in Luke 22:51.
Luke 22:50-51 KJV
(50) And one of them smote the servant of the high priest, and cut off his right ear.
(51) And Jesus answered and said, Suffer ye thus far. And he touched his ear, and healed him.
They….false prophets…can be saved. They can see by having the eyes of their understanding being enlightened by the Word of Truth …hearing it with their ears and understanding it with their heart and be converted so that He may heal them.
Mat 13:15-16 KJV
(15) For this people's heart is waxed gross, and their ears are dull of hearing, and their eyes they have closed; lest at any time they should see with their eyes, and hear with their ears, and should understand with their heart, and should be converted, and I should heal them.
(16) But blessed are your eyes, for they see: and your ears, for they hear.
THE (definite article) Jesus is currently being taken out of peoples’ lives by “subtilty” and killed.
The word “subtilty” in Matthew 26:4 is the Greek transliterated word “dolos” which means “DECOY, trick, bait”.
In other words, they come forth to take the true Jesus that you have received by the preaching of “another jesus”….the decoy jesus…that they want you to receive from them via their deceptive preaching. Their "jesus" is served by the keeping and serving of their church handwritings of ordinances that are being used to judge others with.
They “kill” Him by preventing the manifestation of His life in our mortal flesh which would give us an age-lasting life in this earth. The keeping of His “daily” sacrifice is removed out of the lives of those they deceive so that the Son of man “goes away” and never manifests in the mortal flesh.
Mat 26:3-4
(3) Then assembled together the chief priests, and the scribes, and the elders of the people, unto the palace of the high priest, who was called Caiaphas,
(4) And consulted that they might take Jesus by subtilty (DECOY), and kill him.
The princes of this “world”…that is, this age…do not understand what they are doing. If they would know it, they would not crucify (extinguish) NOW the Lord of glory. This is a NOW thing.
The term “Lord of glory” means that He has already died and raised to life by God and raised to glory.
1Co 2:6-8 KJV
(6) Howbeit we speak wisdom among them that are perfect: yet not the wisdom of this world, nor of the princes of this world, that come to nought:
(7) But we speak the wisdom of God in a mystery, even the hidden wisdom, which God ordained before the world unto our glory:
(8) Which none of the princes of this world knew: for had they known it, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory.
They seek for us to choose their "jesus" rather than THE Jesus ...the Lord of Glory...who is the Prince of Life and has already been raised from the dead. This is being done in ignorance.
Act 3:14-17 KJV
(14) But ye denied the Holy One and the Just, and desired a murderer to be granted unto you;
(15) And killed the Prince of life, whom God hath raised from the dead; whereof we are witnesses.
(16) And his name through faith in his name hath made this man strong, whom ye see and know: yea, the faith which is by him hath given him this perfect soundness in the presence of you all.
(17) And now, brethren, I wot that through ignorance ye did it, as did also your rulers.
It has been a "day of slaughter" as they are taking the Jesus out of the lives of those they deceive....and all for money's sake as Judas did. They condemn and kill the Just One and He does not resist them so that the Scriptures are fulfilled.
Jas 5:5-6 KJV
(5) Ye have lived in pleasure on the earth, and been wanton; ye have nourished your hearts, as in a day of slaughter.
(6) Ye have condemned and killed the just; and he doth not resist you.
If we keep His “daily” sacrifice….bearing about in this mortal body the dying of our Lord Jesus, then His life (the “eternal life”…the age-lasting life) will be manifested there.
2Co 4:10-11 KJV
(10) Always bearing about in the body the dying of the Lord Jesus, that the life also of Jesus might be made manifest in our body.
(11) For we which live are alway delivered unto death for Jesus' sake, that the life also of Jesus might be made manifest in our mortal flesh.
The Son of man goes away (shrinks out of view) as His life is never made manifest in the mortal bodies of those who are being deceived by those who are following in the footsteps of Judas.
Mar 14:21 KJV
(21) The Son of man indeed goeth, as it is written of him: but woe to that man by whom the Son of man is betrayed! good were it for that man if he had never been born.
Multitudes are following in the footsteps of Judas as they come to take Jesus ….the keeping of His “daily” sacrifice…out of the lives of those they deceive with a feigned “kiss”….the flattering lips.
Judas received a “band of men”….even today…who come forth to us to take Him out of our lives.
Joh 18:3 KJV
(3) Judas then, having received a band of men and officers from the chief priests and Pharisees, cometh thither with lanterns and torches and weapons.
They would have no power to deceive us if we remember to keep His “daily” sacrifice. This is signified by Jesus saying “when I was DAILY with you in the temple”. That temple is our mortal body.
Luke 22
(53) When I was daily with you in the temple, ye stretched forth no hands against me: but this is your hour, and the power of darkness.
But if we fall asleep to keeping His daily sacrifice, they use that power of darkness to deceive us with their enticing words….saluting us with a feigned “kiss” of the flattering lips.
Luk 22:46-53 KJV
(46) And said unto them, Why sleep ye? rise and pray, lest ye enter into temptation.
Behold, a MULTITUDE follow Judas…even today.
(47) And while he yet spake, behold a multitude, and he that was called Judas, one of the twelve, went before them, and drew near unto Jesus to kiss him.
(48) But Jesus said unto him, Judas, betrayest thou the Son of man with a kiss?
(49) When they which were about him saw what would follow, they said unto him, Lord, shall we smite with the sword?
(50) And one of them smote the servant of the high priest, and cut off his right ear.
(51) And Jesus answered and said, Suffer ye thus far. And he touched his ear, and healed him.
They come with “swords and staves”.
(52) Then Jesus said unto the chief priests, and captains of the temple, and the elders, which were come to him, Be ye come out, as against a thief, with swords and staves?
(53) When I was daily with you in the temple, ye stretched forth no hands against me: but this is your hour, and the power of darkness.
They come and salute us with a feigned “kiss” rather than a holy kiss.
Rom 16:16-18 KJV
(16) Salute one another with an holy kiss. The churches of Christ salute you.
They come with “swords” to cause divisions among us and offences (staves) contrary to the teaching which we have learned. We must avoid them…those who are following in the footsteps of Judas.
(17) Now I beseech you, brethren, mark them which cause divisions and offences contrary to the doctrine which ye have learned; and avoid them.
They come to take the Jesus out of our lives by saluting us with a feigned kiss: by good words and fair speeches. They do not serve our Lord Jesus Christ.
(18) For they that are such serve not our Lord Jesus Christ, but their own belly; and by good words and fair speeches deceive the hearts of the simple.
We must AVOID them. They are the things “strangled”.
Act 15:19-20 KJV
(19) Wherefore my sentence is, that we trouble not them, which from among the Gentiles are turned to God:
(20) But that we write unto them, that they abstain from pollutions of idols, and from fornication, and from things strangled, and from blood.
That is what Judas did….he went and “strangled” himself. The word for “hanged” is “apagchomai” which means “to strangle” oneself. We must avoid them as their end is destruction…destruction of the mortal body. They are the son of perdition...destruction.
Mat 27:4-5
(4) Saying, I have sinned in that I have betrayed the innocent blood. And they said, What is that to us? see thou to that.
(5) And he cast down the pieces of silver in the temple, and departed, and went and hanged (STRANGLED) himself.
They come to cause divisions and bring offences. They want to take away the keeping of the “daily” sacrifice as they are enemies of the cross of Christ….the power to keep our mortal bodies alive until the redemption of our mortal bodies at the very end of this age.. They do not serve our Lord Jesus Christ but for their own belly as did Judas…the son of perdition. Their end is destruction of the mortal body….they “strangle” themselves. We must avoid them.
Php 3:18-19 KJV
(18) (For many walk, of whom I have told you often, and now tell you even weeping, that they are the enemies of the cross of Christ:
(19) Whose end is destruction, whose God is their belly, and whose glory is in their shame, who mind earthly things.)
We must NOT personally attack those who come to take the true Jesus out of the lives of those who are being deceived by them by the cutting off of their right ear as Simon Peter did in John 18.
We do not know who among them may obediently hear and believe in the Word of Truth when they hear it. The servant had a name. We must not personally attack them by naming them or they will not hear.

(51) And Jesus answered and said, Suffer ye thus far. And he touched his ear, and healed him.
