|    Church dictatorship    |
|    09 Dec 03 09:59:48    |
      From: allan-sv@algonet.se               Church dictatorship        wants to destroy our spiritual life              The churches and the religious sects are religious dictatorships. For       the purpose to reduce the opposition to silence and hold the members       under control, they give them misleading teaching. The Christians       don't leave the churches because they are bound to these harlot-beings       through a false doctrine saying that the churches are Assemblies of       God. While they believe this, they don't leave the churches. They       think that if they leave church or the sect where they are members,       then they cannot be kept in the right faith. It is on the contrary. For       the purpose to keep the true faith in Jesus, it is better for us to be       outsides of all churches. These harlot-beings are not careful to keep       the faith in Jesus.              The churches are afraid that the people get the knowledge of the truth.       Therefore, they want to "care about " the preaching of God's word and       decide who are permitted to be teachers and to preach God's word.       (The Communists in the former Soviet Union did in the same way).       Through that the churches have "take care about " the preaching of       God's word, they have got a semblance of that they are servants       of God though they in the reality are religious houses of bondage.              In the churches the members are served a spiritual starvation       diet - an abridged gospel mixed with false doctrines. Therefore,       there are many Christians who have been stopped in their spiritual       growing in Christ. They have been members in a Free-Church       for many years and confess that they are Christians, but they are       still infants in Christ.              When we have been born anew, then we are as newborn babies in       spiritual meaning. It is God's purpose that we may grow and get       more knowledge of God's word. "As newborn babes, desire the       sincere milk of the word, that ye may grow thereof: If so be ye       have tasted that the Lord is gracious." 1 Peter 2:2.              Unfortunately, there are many Christians who have been stopped       in their spiritual growth. Instead of the pure spiritual milk, they       have got an adulterated and unsuitable food. They have been       bound up with the church system and religious parties. The       preaching they have heard is infected with false doctrines and       church tradition-thinking. This works as sleeping-tablets and       hinders them from free thinking. When they want to study the       Bible, then they don't comprehend what they are reading. Many       of them have not even learnt the fundamental truths of God's       gospel. The Christian baptism they have exchanged for the       so-called infant baptism, once invented and ordained of the great       church father, the devil himself.              "For when for the time ye ought to be teachers, ye have need that       one teach you again which be the first principles of the oracles of       God; and are become such as have need of milk, and not of strong       meat. For every one that useth milk is unskilful in the word of       righteousness: for he is a babe. But strong meat belongeth to them       that are of full age, even those who by reason of use have their       senses exercised to discern both good and evil." Hebr. 5:12-14.       We can say this about many Christian confessors today. Many       Christians, who ought to be teachers, serve now only as pew-       filling in the church.              The churches and the religious sects want to hinder us Christians       from receiving more knowledge of God's word. The priests and the       pastors don't say this direct, but the spiritual forces of evil that rules       within the churches have this purpose. By unrighteousness they       suppress the truth and demand that we follow church traditions       and false doctrines instead of obeying God's word. The love rejoices       in the truth, 1 Cor. 13:6, but the false love of the great whore does       on the contrary. The churches exploit lie and people's lack of       knowledge to keep the control over the members.              The churches have opened their doors for the so-called charismatic       revival, but they have not been better and they have changed only       the tactic. When the devil did not succeed in exterminating the       Christians by mass murder, then he tried with seductive speaking       about "love" and "Christian unity" entice them to apostasy from       the Lord.              The Catholic churches also have received the charismatic revival       and permit people to read the Bible. But this is precise as if I say       to my neighbour, you have my permission to use your car. You       can use your car as mush that you want. What sort of permission       is that? I have nothing to do with his car! It is in that way the       Church does when her "permits" people to read the Bible. The       Church has nothing to do with that! It is neither Church's mission       that preach God's word.              That the Church would be received any mission command from       the Lord, it is a lie of the devil. Jesus gave his mission command       to his disciples long before any church was in existence. The       mission command is given to the Assembly of God, and the       churches have nothing to do with that. The Assembly of God,       the Body of Christ, is no church.              The churches have during centuries held God's people in slavery,       but soon the Lord will rescue his people, from their captivity in       Babylon the Great. Therefore, he commands his Assembly, come       out of her, my people, so that you will not share in her sins, so       that you will not receive any of her plagues. Rev. 18:4. Those       who are not willing to leave the great harlot-church, they must       share in her plagues. God's people must come out from Babylon       the Great before Jesus' arrival.              When Jesus comes and brings his Assembly to heaven, then he       does not bring any church nor any denomination to heaven. And       when God's wrath comes over Babylon the Great, then it is not       one true Christian behind there. 1 Thess. 1:10.                            Do you want to read the continuation of this article       or if you have any questions       Please, visit my Web Site                     http://www.algonet.se/~allan-sv/CONTENTS.HTM              (Article 39)              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
