Matthew 22:29KJV
Jesus answered and said unto them, “Ye do err, not knowing
the Scriptures, nor the power of God.
The Bible says,
“Prove all things;hold fast that which is good....1 Thessalonians 5:21KJV”
As a Christian, you have been instructed not to just run with anything you hear.
You are to prove. You just don’t build your life on something just because it’s a
denominational tradition. Truth is not church traditions; Truth is the Word of
God
God doesn’t have different Truths for different churches. There is only one Truth.
Paul says,
“There is one body, and one Spirit, even as ye are called in one hope of your
calling;One Lord, one faith, one baptism,One God and Father of all, who is
above all, and through all, and in you all....Ephesians 4:4-6KJV”
Again, He says
“For this cause have I sent unto you Timotheus, who is my beloved son, and
faithful in the Lord, who shall bring you into remembrance of my ways which
be in Christ, as I teach every where in every church.....1 Corinthians 4:17KJV”
Paul taught his ways in Christ, the same truth in every church. There wasn’t one
Truth for the Church at Corinth and another Truth for the Church at
Thessalonica
Therefore when you find different churches teaching different doctrines, it tells you
that there is a big problem, someone is teaching his own mind somewhere For instance, there are a group of Christians who believe in a pretribulation
rapture, that is a rapture of the Church before the great tribulation. The other
major group believes that the Church will go through the tribulation before the
rapture. These two views are directly opposed to each other and hence both cannot
be true.
We are in the end of the end times, the very end of this world and as Jesus said,
many will come with all kinds of information.
Even well known men of God will be saying all kinds of things. This is why you
ought to be careful.
Faith is directional; the fact that a Man of God does signs and wonders doesn’t
mean that everything he says becomes the truth.
Truth should always be proven by the Holy Scriptures. And every truth should be
coherent with the total revelation of God’s Word; it shouldn’t contradict any other
part of Scriptures. It shouldn’t agree with some Scriptures and contradict other
Scriptures for all Scriptures were inspired of the same true God.
The problem is that there are people who because of pride wont accept that they
don’t fully understand what they are preaching and hence will come up with all
kinds of terminologies. They will say, this is our perspective. Christians are
supposed to go with only God’s perspective and its called Truth
The Bible says that,
“But he giveth more grace. Wherefore he saith, God resisteth the proud, but
giveth grace unto the humble....James 4:6KJV”
God is not the problem or cause for the wrong doctrines and church traditions but
the pride of man.
They all want to be right at all cost when even Scriptures show that they are wrong.
Therefore you have to make a decision whether to go by Church traditions or the
very Word of God but remember that we are not going to give account to God in
groups but as individuals
God bless you!
