1 | Is Catholic considered false religion? | Matt 15:6 | CDBJ | 71779 | ||
It is my belief that God is calling individuals to himself out of a lot of different denominations and forming what is his church, the living body of Christ. No denomination is the answer but genuine trust and belief and reliance on the person and work of Jesus God’s Christ and what he has done for us to secure our salvation. We have a song that goes, “To God be the glory great things He hath done, so loved He the world that He gave us His Son. He yielded His life an atonement for sin and opened the life gate that all my go in." All I can say to this is AMEN, I believe it, no church, no denomination, just Jesus! Hebrews 12:2 Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God.

I don’t mind the different denominations, what I am saying is that God is still building His church and it has nothing to do with a denomination or mortar or bricks or any such things. There are individuals that belong to a vast array of denominations and God has revealed to them the truth about His Son Jesus. They are fully trusting in the finished work of Christ for their salvation no matter what their denomination teaches. I doubt if there is a denomination in existence that teaches every thing the way it should be with out missing out on a single point. God speaks through his Word and the more of God’s Word that is communicated the more people will be saved. A lot of people are being saved in spite of churches and denominations and I am a good example of that. Everything that is done in churches apart from expounding on God’s Word is nothing more then glitter; it’s the Word that is profitable to individuals. 2 Tim. 3:16 All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is PROFITABLE for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: Ritual was the vehicle for teaching in the Old Testament; in the New Testament it is God The Holy Spirit that is doing the teaching. John 16:13 Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak: and he will shew you things to come. John 6:45 It is written in the prophets, And they shall be all taught of God. Every man therefore that hath heard, and hath learned of the Father, cometh unto me. Psalm 138:2 I will worship toward thy holy temple, and praise thy name for thy lovingkindness and for thy truth: for thou hast magnified thy word above all thy name. If people are to have the faith needed for salvation the key is exposure to God’s Word. Romans 10:17 So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God. In most churches today we get a little sermonette by a preacherette and that was not the advise of Paul to Timothy. 2 Tim. 4:1-2 I charge thee therefore before God, and the Lord Jesus Christ, who shall judge the quick and the dead at his appearing and his kingdom; [2] Preach the word; be instant in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all longsuffering and doctrine. Paul said I charge thee; this was a very strong word in the Greek, diamarturomai. Today it would be like a drill sergeant standing with the bill of his campaign hat stuck tight against your forehead screaming at you to get your act together and do it this way or else. Then Paul adds with all longsuffering so the drill sergeant throws his arms around you and says, I’m telling you this because I love you and it’s for the good of us all. The only thing that is going to sustain us in times of trouble is the Bible doctrine that we have metabolized into our soul; all of the beautiful songs and ritual and the elegant garb, worn by many, won’t sustain anyone for a minute when problems arise. To live in this world we need all the Bible doctrine we can get. Matthew 4:4 But he answered and said, It is written, Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God. Sounds like I’m back on my soapbox, so it must be time to go. CDBJ |
