CHRIST: THE FOUNDATION THAT PRESERVES YOU FROM FALSE DOCTRINES – Apostle Yvan CASTANOU

Christ: the Foundation that Preserves You from False Doctrines

Jesus is not just one option among many; He is the foundation, the cornerstone, the unshakable rock! In a world saturated with deceptive doctrines, where philosophical seductions, human traditions, and the worship of other entities seek to lead believers astray, it is urgent to stand firm on Christ alone.

See to it that no one takes you captive through philosophy and empty deception. (Colossians 2:8)

The apostle Paul warns us: if we are not rooted in Christ, we are vulnerable to deception. Today, God is calling you to establish yourself firmly on the only unshakable foundation: Jesus Christ.

The Subtle Attack of False Knowledge

Since the beginning, Satan has had a simple strategy: attack the foundations! He knows that a house without a strong foundation will collapse easily. He doesn’t start by striking the roof, he doesn’t attack the windows first—he digs at the root, he strikes at the very base on which your faith stands. And one of his greatest deceptions is introducing false doctrines disguised as spirituality.

Even in the church at Colossae, a false doctrine called Gnosticism had infiltrated. It promoted a secret knowledge, reserved for the initiated, claiming to grant superior access to God through mystical experiences. They taught that Jesus was just one intermediary among many and that to reach the truth, one had to seek additional revelations, open up to angels and spirits. Paul immediately opposed this heresy and declared unequivocally:

In Him are hidden all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge. (Colossians 2:3)

This ancient doctrine is resurfacing today in various forms: fascination with hidden mysteries, the pursuit of new revelations outside of Scripture, esoteric practices disguised as biblical spirituality. People talk to you about “frequencies,” “vibrations,” “ancestral gifts.” They want you to believe that there are spiritual secrets not found in the Bible, known only to a select few. IT’S A TRAP! It is nothing but the old lie of the serpent in the Garden of Eden:

God is hiding something from you… (Genesis 3:5)

Jesus at the Center, Nothing Else!

Listen to me carefully: YOU NEED NOTHING OTHER THAN JESUS CHRIST! He is the fullness, He is everything you need. Paul is clear:

You have been made complete in Him, who is the head of all rule and authority. (Colossians 2:10)

People want to lure you in with doctrines centered on supernatural experiences? But Christ is above all authorities! They want to impress you with hidden revelations? But in Christ are hidden ALL the treasures of divine wisdom! They want you to worship angels?

But angels are ministering spirits, sent to serve those who will inherit salvation! (Hebrews 1:14)

Anything that draws your focus away from Jesus is spiritual poison.

Jesus is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of all creation. Everything was created by Him and for Him. (Colossians 1:15-16)

He disarmed the rulers and authorities at the Cross, making a public spectacle of them. (Colossians 2:15)

He is THE WAY, THE TRUTH, AND THE LIFE!

This truth is NON-NEGOTIABLE.

The Current Spiritual Crisis

Why are so many Christians being deceived? Because they are not rooted in the Word! They consume everything they are given without discerning the source of these teachings.

Ignorance of the Bible is the enemy’s primary battlefield. My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge. (Hosea 4:6)

Today, we see teachings that mix the Gospel with elements of mystical Judaism, pseudo-spiritual sciences, and even occult influences disguised as Christian spirituality. The youth are the primary targets. They are told about spiritual intelligence; they hear: “Open your mind to energies,” “Develop a different frequency,” “Tap into higher waves to manifest power.” Lies! The only frequency that guarantees a life of power is a deep communion with the Holy Spirit. You will not be transformed by seeking exotic teachings, but by allowing Christ to be fully formed in you!

What You Must Do Now

Stay in the Word. Meditate on it day and night, immerse yourself in it as never before. Let the Scriptures be the primary source of your faith, not the latest spiritual trends.
Maintain a fervent prayer life. The more time you spend with God, the more authentic your relationship with Him becomes. A Christian rooted in prayer is not swayed by strange doctrines.
Turn away from contaminated sources. Unsubscribe from teachings that lead you away from the Lord.
Seek the true power: Christ formed in you.

Let Us Pray Together

Father, I want to remain rooted in Christ, founded on the Truth. Open my eyes and my understanding to the wisdom that comes from above, and preserve me from the deceptions of this age. May my heart be passionate for Jesus alone, my life established on the solid foundation of the Gospel, and may I be a faithful witness of the Light in my generation. In the mighty name of Jesus, Amen!

🙏 If you have never given your life to Jesus, pray this prayer with faith:

Lord Jesus, I acknowledge that I need You. I believe You died for my sins and rose again. Today, I accept You as my Lord and Savior. Transform my life and lead me in Your way. Amen.
