Beware of the Dogs
Shalom Friends and Fellow Warriors,
Early this morning in the Shahar blackness of the predawn, Abba has instructed me to share with you another key for successful living outside the camp of the modern religious system (Hebrews 13:12-13). This key can be found in the final words of the Apostle Paul before his brutal martyrdom.
“Beware of the dogs, beware of the evil workers, beware of the false circumcision; for we are the true circumcision, who worship in the Spirit of God and glory in Messiah Jesus and put no confidence in the flesh.” (Phil. 3:2-3 NASB).
Notice here in the Greek that the imperative is used three times in this first verse alone…Beware, beware, and beware! This warning is not against three different groups of people but the same group described in three ways. A thoughtful reading of the Book of Acts will immediately point out that this group was the Judases’ who wanted to lynch Paul throughout his powerful ministry. However, is there more to this verse that just this historical episode in the life of the early churches?
