What is the meaning of the word resistor? Who are the resisters of holy spirit today?
The Greek word as found in Strong’s Concordance #G496 is antipipto, it means to oppose, strive against. This word does not mean or imply something passive no, but it is so strong of a word that it should paint a picture of somebody who is actively trying to crush an adversary in battle.
Acts 7:51… Obstinate men and uncircumcised in hearts and ears, YOU are always resisting (G496) the holy spirit; as YOUR forefathers did, so YOU do. Which one of the prophets did YOUR forefathers not persecute? Yes, they killed those who made announcement in advance concerning the coming of the righteous One, whose betrayers and murderers YOU have now become!
The Disciple Stephen was full of Holy Spirit, and he begin to bear witness of the history against these very men who murdered and betrayed those sent by God. Even killing the righteous one Jesus Christ who had just been sent by God. These men have proven to be agents of the antichrist spirit that now operates fully upon the sons of disobedience.
What is this antichrist spirit? And what part has it played in the history against God’s people?
Antichrist is the opposer of Christ, it is the enemy of God and of his people. It made its appearance in the garden of Eden when it seduced Eve to bring about the disobedience to God. Then there was the time it pushes Cain to kill Able. Genesis 4:4-11
The next time we are introduced to the antichrist spirit it is through the story of Noah, where God had to step in and bring an end to the godless people, who are underneath the influence from the wicked sons of God and their offspring. Genesis 6:1
Next the antichrist spirit appeared was in the time of our forefather Abraham’s day in the land of Mesopotamia and upon a great King Nimrod. He was well known in the earth as being the founder of Babylon in the land of Shinar. And once again God had to bring an end to the rebellion that was operating upon the sons of men. As he confused the languages of all those who are working upon Tower of Babel and scattered them upon the surface of the earth. Genesis 11:1-9
Soon Abraham had a son named Ishmael by an Egyptian maidservant by the name of Hagar. But the promised covenant of the blessing would be through Isaac who Sarah gave birth to. Ishmael began to bully Isaac in time who was young. Genesis 17:15-21
It was not long after that the men of the earth begin to be incited again to doing what is wrong and doing what is wicked before the true God, being disobedient to the laws of God. And the true God was again forced to bring about divine judgment upon the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah by the destruction the fire and sulfur. Genesis 19:1-17
In time the people of God were sent to live in Egypt and in time they grew into a nation, where the antichrist spirit begins to enslave and afflict God’s people by the hand of Pharaoh. And after 400 years the antichrist spirit through this wicked king and begins to do away with the people of God by forcing them to destroy the male infants as he used treachery against them. Exodus 1:9-22
But God delivered his people by the hand of Moses as he sent an angel to deliver them from the land of Egypt. In the wilderness they were given the 10 Commandments by the finger of God. But they turned their backs on the true God and wanted to return to Egypt in their hearts. So, they made a sacrifice to an idol and sat down to enjoy themselves.
So, God was forced to hand them over to the to render service to the Army of the heavens. These are the antichrist spirits the resistors of the true God and of his Christ. These people of God fell under the spell of the Army of the heavens and their God has proved to be Repham, his star is called Saturn and their house is the tent of Moloch where they practice the disgusting things. God saw fit to speak by the mouth of Moses and God had him prophesy that he would send forth a prophet like Moses to deliver them from their bondage from Babylon. Acts 7:37-43
Now you must be asking yourself did God’s people go from wandering 40 years around the wilderness straight into Babylon? The simple answer is no but what is interesting is that when John the Baptist showed up preaching, and he referred to the prophecy of Isaiah where God’s people are referred to making their way out of the desert even though they were in the land of Judah, and they were inhabiting the city of Jerusalem.
But I cannot help but to think back to how God gave his people up in the wilderness to render service to the Army of the heavens. That the time of the people of God having to fulfill their military service to the Army of heavens had been paid off because the time for the Messiah had arrived.
Isaiah 40:1-5… COMFORT, comfort my people,” says the God of YOU men. 2 “SPEAK to the heart of Jerusalem and call out to her that her military service has been fulfilled, that her error has been paid off. For from the hand of Jehovah she has received a full amount for all her sins.” 3 Listen! Someone is calling out in the wilderness: “Clear up the way of Jehovah, YOU people! MAKE the highway for our God through the desert plain straight. 4 Let every valley be raised up, and every mountain and hill be made low. And the knobby ground must become level land, and the rugged ground a valley plain. 5 And the glory of Jehovah will certainly be revealed, and all flesh must see [it] together, for the very mouth of Jehovah has spoken [it].
The Christ of God the Messiah made his appearance upon the earth and all flesh saw it, but so did the antichrist spirit and they begin to work harder to resist the righteous decrees of God and his kingdom to the point of even killing this righteous son of God. By the hand of obstinate men, these power-hungry people are resisters of the Holy Spirit.
So, God has again marked off of time where he purposes to judge mankind by means of his Christ the righteous one and he has made him King of kings and Lord of lords and his given him a name above all other names so that all in heaven and upon earth should take a knee proclaiming that Jesus Christ is the Lord.
Philippians 2:9-10… For this very reason also, God exalted him to a superior position and kindly gave him the name that is above every [other] name, so that in the name of Jesus every knee should bend of those in heaven and those on earth and those under the ground, and every tongue should openly acknowledge that Jesus Christ is Lord to the glory of God the Father.
If you cannot take a knee and repeat these words then you do not belong to the true God, you are a resistor of Holy Spirit and under the influence of the antichrist spirit, well then prepare to meet your God.
Matthew 25:31-33, 41… When the Son of man arrives in his glory, and all the angels with him, then he will sit down on his glorious throne. 32 And all the nations will be gathered before him, and he will separate people one from another, just as a shepherd separates the sheep from the goats. 33 And he will put the sheep on his right hand, but the goats on his left… 41 “Then he will say, in turn, to those on his left, ‘Be on YOUR way from me, YOU who have been cursed, into the everlasting fire prepared for the Devil and his angels.
Are you really a resistor of Holy Spirit? Then Repent before God!
Come Lord Jesus and save us from these wicked ones!
