"I have noticed something'
newgene87:
so i was looking more into this topic and this verse jumped out at me in studying this...
" Wherefore the Lord said, Forasmuch as this people draw near me with their mouth, and with their lips do honour me, but have removed their heart far from me, and their fear toward me is taught by the precept of men (Isaiah 29:13)
yea, this reminds me of every "professing" christian, which the majority, that i know, are simply part of an Denomination. seeing there are SO MANY of them; obviously, these are ALL "PRECEPTS OF MEN". As Ray pointed out, non of the churches of this day have a scriptural creed so their really far from the truth. they may posses love and believe in the name of Jesus; but The WILL OF THE FATHER, they have no clue. seeing out of that same heart, they condemn just about any sinner to a fiery hell :o.
and most of these professing Christians add to the word of God. it's so easy to do it and it's a shame. but God says, " Do not add to his words, lest he rebuke you and you be found a liar" (Pro 30:6). not saying that anyone here does it, but these "professing" Christians can really throw free will in their talk and worship yet it's a precept of man.
And Abednego, beautifully put. I too, feel as tho I'm not worthy to call him Lord. Teacher really will do, cause through my daily trials, it's like one big classroom. And Jesus words stand strong on that, " 'A servant is not greater than his master.' If they persecuted me, they will also persecute you. If they kept my word, they will also keep yours." (John 15:20). Yet He will always be with us ;)
be blessed family
