BEWARE OF THE TRADITIONS OF MEN

 For taking your time to study remain blessed. 

Topic: BEWARE OF THE TRADITIONS OF MEN  October Monday 19th

Text:  1 Corinthians 3:18-21

Key verse: Matthew 15:9 But in vain they do worship me, teaching for doctrines the commandments of men. 


Beware of some of the doctrines and traditions imposed on you by some so-called men of God demanding your unquestionable obedience. The Lord Jesus is saying those traditions will not take you to heaven. Some of these pastors already know that they are not going to heaven and they also know that by imposing their traditions on you, you will not enter heaven either. This is because you are doing the will of men and not the will of our heavenly Father. These pastors compel you to submit to traditions and rules that are clearly in conflict with the scriptures. They force you to live your life in total disobedience to the word of God. Even though such church leaders know that they are not going to heaven, they are just satisfied that they have authority over you and are happy that they exercise ungodly influence over your life. They make you subject to them and their teachings to deprive you of heaven. Knowing that they are not going to heaven, their sole objective is to use their authority to deprive you of heaven as well. They are hypocrites. Matthew 23:13 But woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye shut up the kingdom of heaven against men: for ye neither go in yourselves, neither suffer ye them that are entering to go in. 


It is my fervent prayer that as you realize this problem, the Lord will deliver you today. He did not create you to live under the crushing weight of the traditions or doctrines of any church denomination. He did not create you to be trampled under foot by any man or any group of persons. He has not given any man the right to infringe on the rights and privileges you have to choose to obey the word of God. He created you for Himself and that you might glorify Him. He created you that you might show forth the praise of Him who called you out of darkness into the marvellous light of His Son. Before the Lord, every knee shall bow and every tongue shall confess that Jesus is the Lord to the glory of God the Father, Amen.

My earnest prayer is that this message will be of tremendous benefit to you as you prayerfully and dedicatedly commit yourself to digesting and applying it to your life.

 

Thought for the day: God’s commandment overrides human rules and doctrines. 

Song for the day: All to Jesus I surrender

Bible reading for the day: 

Jeremiah 1-2; 2 Thessalonians 2

Them That Sin, Rebuke Before All

God's blessing shall be following you continually for taking the time to study. Them That Sin, Rebuke Before All   Monday 24th March Text: 1 Timothy 5: 19-22 Key verse: Them that sin rebuke before all, that others also may fear. 1 Timothy 5:20 God wants you to avoid doing evil while saying you want to go to heaven. You may be a member of a worldly church and be saying, “It is my tribal church; if I leave them, they will be angry. I do not want them to be angry.” Is it God you want to make angry by your compromise? You will see the anger of God indeed. It is through the word that you perfect the people, and as a result, the Bible says, “Thou shalt not suffer sin upon your brother. Thou shall reprove him.” Your brother or sister has done a bad thing, and you do not bother. You leave them in their sins. They may do the same to other people. The Lord says, “Correct them.” Do not allow sin to be in them because sin will take them to hell. The Bible says, “Them that sin, rebuke befo...

The Source Of Faith

God's blessing shall be following you continually for taking the time to study. The Source Of Faith  Tuesday 18th March Text: Romans 1:16-17 Key Verse: So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God. Romans 10:17 What is the foundation for our faith? The faith of the just man has the following sources, from where it gets its inspiration. The Word Of God: The foundation of the faith of the just, is the word of God.  The word of God is the production room of the faith which the just exercises. The faith of the just has its foundation in what God has said in His word.  Faith seeks for what God has said to stand upon.  Have you seen the promises of God for you, from the word? Have you seen God's message for you, in the scriptures?  Believe it absolutely, and it shall surely come to pass. This will enhance your faith for subsequent needs of your life. “God is not a man, that He should lie; neither the son of man, that He should repent: hath He said, ...
