ONGOING PURPOSE: RE-BUILDING A TRUSTWORTHY, EMOTIONALLY SAFE CHURCH AND COMMUNITY
So TD Stirs it up:
I don’t give a RAT’s RIP about how SAVVY YOUR BIG GIFT IS!
Paul Ephesians 3:19 says it all! (that’s the meaning of a Hebrews 10:25)
JUST BE HONEST AND CEASE USING JESUS NAME AND CALLING A CHURCH ,FOR IT’S NOT. IT RESEMBLES MORE A FAMOUS PERSON’S CULT… SOMEONE’S PRIVATE WORSHIP TURF. Therefore…please… have Truth In Advertising,and then I’ll/we’ll know not to come…REASON. “YOU” ONLY WANT “YOUR” PREFERRED (TEUTONIC?) STYLE “) PS No hard feelings! Forever Isaiah 1:18!! Sincerely, Dr T
ONLY THE FIRST PART:
MINISTRY GATEKEEPING vs. GOSSIP, NOSINESS & FALSE WITNESS
It’s the character, the fruit, the relationship fallout “many issues” (the Loss of Ability to Trust)

“Send thine hand from above; rid me, and deliver me out of great waters,
from the hand of strange children; Whose mouth speaketh vanity,
and their right hand is a right hand of falsehood.”

Ministry Gatekeeping (Biblical Intent)
Definition:
Ministry gatekeeping in its true biblical sense refers to watchfulness, discernment, and spiritual protection of the flock from harm — primarily false doctrine or dangerous wolves.
It’s detrimental to the whole body of Christ, Jesus safe reputation, to all Christians, non believers (harvest) visitors, if the “gatekeepers” (usually rich, ego presumptive, as in cult, narcessist, like too many NOW). ARE THE WOLVES. See below and the apostolic leader “to the Future Church” all out series.
Example in the Bible:
“Take heed therefore unto yourselves, and to all the flock… for I know this, that after my departing shall grievous wolves enter in among you, not sparing the flock.”
— Acts 20:28–30 (KJV)
BIG POINT: True gatekeeping:
Protects the flock from harm(does not pit them against each other, use them, undermine them, target them, betray them)
Submits to Holy Bible apostolic protocol, respects and values the other God made persons, Honors meek Galatians 6:1 and Matthew 18:15–17 by confronting DIRECTLY, IN PRIVATE (not guess, circulating untrue rumors)
Seeks restoration, not exposure “God’s love covers a multitude of sins.”
Is done with humility, not superiority
POINT Paul warned and instructed.
POINT Jesus rebuked false teaching with scripture, not smear campaigns.
Gossip (Sinful Counterfeit)
Definition:
Gossip is spreading private, speculative, or damaging information not to help but to entertain, control, or wound.
“A talebearer revealeth secrets: but he that is of a faithful spirit concealeth the matter.”
— Proverbs 11:13
Gossip:
Lacks firsthand knowledge or context
Fails to go directly to the person (Matthew 18)
Spreads offense instead of resolving it
USUAL RED FLAG:
Gossip often pretends to be “gatekeeping” but functions like a spiritual TMZ — stoking suspicion, fear, and shame.
Being Nosey (Carnal Curiosity)
Definition:
Nosiness is meddling in others’ lives or ministries without a call, interaction, chatting, Isaiah 1:18 Galatians 6:1, Matthew 18:15, means a relationship, Holy Spirit leading.
“And withal they learn to be idle, wandering about from house to house… tattlers also and busybodies…”
— 1 Timothy 5:13
A nosey person:
Craves private details without a redemptive motive
Acts like a self-appointed investigator
Often makes ungodly assumptions
DAVID’S WARNING TO BEWARE
Psalm 144:7–11 (KJV) — In Light of Today
Verse 7
“Send thine hand from above; rid me, and deliver me out of great waters, from the hand of strange children;”
Today’s Lens:
The psalmist (David) is crying out for divine rescue from overwhelming spiritual oppression — “great waters” — and betrayal by those who are not truly sons of God — “strange children.”
🔍 Application Today:
Many in modern church systems (especially authoritarian or false gatekeeping settings) feel like they are drowning in:
-
False accusation
-
Control systems
-
Ungodly “spiritual children” who act like family but are not
This is a cry for discernment and deliverance from toxic environments, false spiritual kinship, and illegitimate spiritual authority.
Verse 8
“Whose mouth speaketh vanity, and their right hand is a right hand of falsehood.”
Today’s Lens:
These “strange children”:
-
Speak vain things (empty, flashy, performance-based “Christian talk”)
-
Extend a false handshake — a right hand that should be covenantal and truthful, but is deceitful
Application Today:
This mirrors what happens when:
-
Leaders say “I’m covering you” but secretly use people
-
Ministries pretend unity while gossiping, targeting, and accusing
-
“Right hands” are used for control, accusation, or betrayal
This is spiritual Judas activity — false intimacy, dishonest alliances, and flattering lips (see Proverbs 26:28).
Verse 9
“I will sing a new song unto thee, O God: upon a psaltery and an instrument of ten strings will I sing praises unto thee.”
Today’s Lens:
Despite treachery, David refocuses on God and sings a “new song.”
Application Today:
This is your response as a believer or leader:
-
Keep your eyes on God
-
Don’t get stuck in religious politics or woundedness
-
Worship cuts through witchcraft, lies, and control
This is a prophetic act: lifting praise when others spread suspicion. You choose Kingdom joy over bitterness.
Verse 10
“It is he that giveth salvation unto kings: who delivereth David his servant from the hurtful sword.”
Today’s Lens:
God—not man, not apostles, not systems—is the one who delivers leaders (kings and servants alike) from hurtful swords — verbal, spiritual, emotional, or relational.
Application Today:
When ministries attack with:
-
False prophecy
-
Shaming
-
“Witch lists”
-
Public rebukes
-
Accusations of being uncovered or unsubmitted
God says: I will save you. I deliver from hurtful swords — especially those wielded in His name but against His heart.
Verse 11
“Rid me, and deliver me from the hand of strange children, whose mouth speaketh vanity, and their right hand is a right hand of falsehood:”
Today’s Lens (Repeated for Emphasis):
David again pleads for rescue from people who pretend godliness but walk in falsehood.
Modern Picture:
-
Celebrity spiritual leaders who project “glory” but use manipulation
-
Gatekeeping apostles who speak vanity and “extend their right hand” to control, not bless
-
Leaders who talk “covering,” “submission,” and “discernment” — but it’s all about spiritual pecking order and not Jesus’ love
Final Thought:
Psalm 144:7–11 is a deliverance cry for those under spiritual abuse, betrayal, or deception in church systems.
It gives language to:
-
The pain of being surrounded by false brethren
-
The power of praise and God’s faithfulness
-
The promise that God will not leave you in a place ruled by “strange children”
“He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty.” — Psalm 91:1
False Witness, Treachery, & Invasion
Definition:
These are deep sins listed directly in the Ten Commandments and Proverbs as abominations.
“Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbour.” — Exodus 20:16
“A false witness that speaketh lies, and he that soweth discord among brethren.” — Proverbs 6:19
These behaviors include:
Speaking accusations without proof
Using ministry platforms to publicly shame
Twisting facts for gain, power, or fear
This spirit is Judas-like:
“Judas… sought opportunity to betray Him…” — Matthew 26:16
It’s invasive, dominant, and anti-Christ at its core.
Key Contrasts in Practice
Holy Gatekeeping False Ministry Policing
Protects the sheep Exposes the weak to ridicule
Uses scripture and private counsel Uses gossip, slander, and public spectacle
Humbly warns and prays Proudly posts and humiliates
Based on love and truth Based on control, fear, and suspicion
Follows Matthew 18, Gal. 6:1 Ignores all biblical due process
Like Nehemiah building the wall Like Sanballat trying to stop the work (Neh. 4:1–3)
Today’s Problem: False Gatekeeping Looks Like TMZ Church Scandal Culture
Much of what’s labeled “discernment ministry” today is really:
Digital judgment booths
Ministry surveillance fueled by assumptions
A spirit of fear, dominance, or superiority
Emotionally abusive tactics used to quarantine people God never rejected
This isn’t apostolic. It’s spiritual treason dressed in religious garments.
First Church Standard
“Submitting yourselves one to another in the fear of God.” — Ephesians 5:21
“Brethren, if a man be overtaken in a fault, ye which are spiritual, restore such an one in the spirit of meekness…” — Galatians 6:1
The **First Church did not:
Operate a witch list
Chase down “church hoppers”
Label lone women “Jezebels”
Treat gossip as discernment
Closing Thought
A gatekeeper is not a jailkeeper.
The Holy Spirit leads with conviction, not control.
If you must watch — watch with tears, truth, and trust in Jesus, not accusation.
