Fabricated Doctrines And Routines
There are so many cases of man-made doctrines and routines. Here are some examples:
- Religions leaders bind the junior ministers with oath.
During ordinations and anointing ceremonies, religious leaders bind the new ministers with oath. The new ministers thereby accept to obey the religious leaders, whether the leaders are right or wrong, instead of obeying the directions of the Holy Spirit. A good religious leader should train new ministers in such a way that the new ministers should be able to recognize and respond to the Holy Spirit.
For example, despite visions and messages of Jesus to Reverend Sister Faustina, she refused to obey Jesus unless the Catholic Church approved what Jesus told her. Eventually, her book was approved after being delayed for twenty years. By then, many souls have lost their way into the hell fire.
- Man-made beauracracies that are spiritually irrelevant.
Before the church would approve something they would set up committees and panels, and spend years in investigations. All because the religions leaders are not spiritually awake, enlightened and experienced. In the process they end up frustrating the work of God. For example, Catholic Church spend many years before it can investigate, conclude and approve a saint. The practice is contrary to what is obtainable in the bible.
- Abraham saw the angels going to destroy sodam and gommorah, and immediately recognized and welcomes them as angels. He did not spend years to investigate before conducing.
- Joshua met an angels of God, and there and fell down to worship God. He did not first set up committees and subcommittees.
- Simeon came into the temple and recognized the baby Jesus as the saviour prophetess Ann did the same thing at the occasion, on the spur of the moment two of them did not spend years in research before they recognized the truth. Truly imparity of the religions leaders are spiritually blind and dead, without knowing it.
Besides, the conditions for making a saint are not recognized in heaven. All should study Spiritual Science.
- Uniformity in ordination and anointing. There are different types of call, and as well, different types of anointing.
Instead of listening to the directives of the Holy Spirit, religious leaders are always ready and quick to perform the same ordination or anointing ceremony for new ministers of God. For more explanations and details, see different types of call anointing
- Misleading formality in worship. This is done by enforcing the same order and content of service in every mission, parish or branch.
By so doing, church and worship becomes mere formalities with people behaving like pillars of dead stones. If God had not prospered new generation churches, people would not have known what it means to clap, dance, rejoice and praise God.
- Denial of the supernatural moves of God.
Churches teach that God is a supernatural God, who performs supernatural signs and wonders. However, when God starts manifesting in their midst in supernatural ways, they refuse to comply. That is why many have died premature death, and also the reason why many are suffering all kinds of problems to day.
- Rejection of reformation. From time to time, God sends ministers to reform the church and take people to higher levels.
But the religious leaders would not accept and support the reformers. Instead of giving support as the three wise men gave to Jesus, they confuse and mislead the church members into rejecting the reformers and new teachings.
This was the problem Jesus suffered in the hands of the Chief Priests and Elders of Israel. David suffered similar persecution from King Saul. Daniel encountered the same when he was thrown into the Lion’s den. Christians were being persecuted by Saul, before he was converted and named Paul.
The truth is that the religious leaders are more interested in keeping and defending their public honors and benefits, than in doing what the Holy Spirit says. They are more interested in continuing old habits, which they are used to, than in accepting corrections from heaven.
- Refusal to do spiritual work.
Today many families are still suffering the bad effects of iniquities, abominations and curses committed by their ancestors. They refuse to perform deliverance and spiritual work, saying, “That is not how our church worships” or “Our religion does not believe in that.” Yet, people are suffering untold hardship and souls are perishing.
- Pretended peace and false promises.
When people, who are their religious members, die for neglecting what God said, the religious leaders preach that such people died a saint or martyr, whereas such people died in disobedience.
- Belief in purgatory when there is none.
People claim there is purgatory, when God did not provide such. And because people do not know the Truth, they stick to wrong beliefs and practices which misleads them away from heaven into hell fire.
- Refusal to grow in spirit and in truth.
People are proud to say, “I was born in so so church and I will die in that church.” One says, “I was born a catholic, and I will die a catholic,” while another says, “I am a Pentecostal and a rascal.” Yet, another says about himself, “I shall remain a Buddhist.” By this and similar confessions, they pin themselves down and refuse to grow in spirit.
- Religious leaders set unnecessary limits and obstacles to the work of God.
A pastor went to a hospital to heal people by prayer. When he got to the hospital, the staff refused, saying, “It is only reverend fathers that are allowed.” Therefore, the pastor turned and left. Now consider the following facts:
- The pastor was actually sent by God, and he could heal sickness and can even prevent death. He has done it before, several times.
- The reverend fathers have taken over the hospital. Yet, majority of the reverend fathers do not have the spiritual powers or training to heal the people.
- By refusing the pastor entrance, they have caused the suffering and death of people.
- The reverend fathers who issued such orders would be rejoicing here on earth that they are in positions of authority to say what will happen or not. But in heaven, their records show that they are working against the Holy Spirit, and they shall be held accountable for the death and suffering of innocent people.
- Who gives power to men to minister to the children of God? Is it the reverend fathers that now dictate for the holy spirit on what to do and where to work?
The author had a similar encounter. Somebody opened a new shop to market food stuffs. He invested a large amount of money into the business. After opening the shop, God gave me messages about the shop. The messages specified what deliverance and spiritual work that should be performed at the shop, for the shop owners to succeed and prosper.
I went to them and informed them of the messages from God. One of them told me that they have invited a reverend father, who came and prayed there. Well I did not have to argue. The unfortunate thing was that the shop folded up, closed down, after about two months, because no customer was coming to the shop to buy foodstuff. This was true, despite the fact that the shop was nearer home to customers than far away markets.
In other words, when religious leaders set unnecessary limits and obstacles, they not only hinder the works of God, but also bring shame and dishonour to themselves, even without knowing it.
- Denial of the works of the Holy Spirit.
Even today, many churches do not believe in prophecy, vision, dream, trance, wade, leading, deliverance, anointing, tongues, etc. They are quick to tell you, “That is not how our church worships,” or “Our church does not believe in that.” Their belief and stand is a clear evidence that they are working against the Holy Spirit.
- Refusal to grow in spirit.
They claim that their church is the best teachings, and therefore reject corrections and messages of the Holy Spirit. Indeed, many of the churches that claim to be best are among the worst.
- They bear false testimony.
When their members die, they praise such members, because according to them, the members died as faithful. The truth is that such members died in disobedience.
- Pretended peace
They can formulate false beliefs and keep themselves busy practicing the wrong beliefs for many years, generations and centuries. Hence, the lifetime the people who practice such beliefs become wasted years.
- Greediness
They are like babies in the arms, who eat whatever that is fed into its mouth, without knowing whether such things are good or bad. And they do not, and cannot, differentiate between holy and unholy sibstances, mixing both clean and unclean things as if all things are acceptable to God.
- Restricting people in the study of the holy books.
Every church specifies which portions of the holy books should be read or not, whereas God directed them to make the whole contents available to the public.
- Irrelevant practices
A very good example is the rosary, into which people have been misguided.
- Uncontrolled freedom.
Many feel less concerned about the end time messages and warnings from God.
- Everyday bustle and hazzle.
Everybody is prone to biosterious lifestyle. The governements are developing big cities into mega-cities, when they suppose to decentralize the cosmopolitan cities for the sake of good spiritual growth.
- Prohibiting junior ministers, as well as ordinary members, from using their spiritual talents.
Those who do this type of things put themselves into judgement and trouble in spirit, because they disorganize and hinder the works of the Holy Spirit. How come that the religious leaders are very much interested in increasing their membership, when they do not know how to develop the spiritual talents of the populace?
Conclusion
John the Baptist was referring to man-made doctrines and routines when he was crying in the wilderness, saying,
"The voice of one crying in the wilderness:
'Prepare the way of the LORD;
Make His paths straight.
5 Every valley shall be filled
And every mountain and hill brought low;
The crooked places shall be made straight
And the rough ways smooth;
6 And all flesh shall see the salvation of God.'"
Luke 3:4-6
On so many occasions, I have heard reverend ministers and priests read this Bible portion. Only that none of them has been able to give it correct interpretation and explanations. And they continue to make the same old and silly mistakes.
For more details and explanations, see Beyond All Reasonable Doubts! A clear explanation on the need for corrections of Roman Catholic Beliefs and Practices. And a call on all other religions to investigate their beliefs and practices, and return to their original worship.
Now, the church has accepted that the Pope is fallible. He is not only fallible, but also full of falliblities. Read sweeping apologies in the text, Pope Says Sorry For Sins Of Church
