Matthew 23:15 Woe Unto You Evangelists of Hell

Is. 49:6–7 I’ll also make You a light of the nations So that My salvation may reach to the end of the earth. Kings will see & arise, Princes will also bow down.

The scribes & Pharisees postured as those very messengers—God’s agents summoning the nations into covenant blessing through the coming Messianic King & royal conqueror. They came bearing the terrifying texts—of a King who would subdue the nations, break rebels with His rod, shattering them like clay pots. What a message—take the carrot, or get the stick. The combined fear, & prophetic expectation would make a man skip line at the circumcision booth!

But it only looked like evangelism.  Underneath the robes & rituals was hunger for influence—& income. Each convert meant another tither. Another disciple of the system. Another soul under the thumb of rabbinic control. They weren’t shepherds seeking the lost. They were salesmen securing revenue. The Great Commission was nowhere in sight—but the great commission check? That was cashed.

Listen as Pastor Matt unmasks the devil’s evangelists showing why Christ’s harshest words weren’t for pagans, but for false preachers.
