Disciples Transgress the Tradition of the Elders

Disciples Transgress the Tradition of the Elders



First of all we need to understand between the disciples transgress the tradition of the elders and transgress the commandment of God by your tradition. Big difference! Tradition is all Religious acts!


Read Matthew 15:2-3…enlighten yourself to see the big difference…


Matthew 15:2 (KJV)


Why do thy disciples transgress the tradition of the elders? for they wash not their hands when they eat bread.


Matthew 15:3 (KJV)


But he answered and said unto them, Why do ye also transgress the commandment of God by your tradition?


First we need to identifies all the “TRADITION WITH ALL RELIGIOUS ACTS” some teachers will teach all the good acts with goody…goody cleanliness of a person appearance such as the way you dress, washing your hands, do not wear rings in a church, do not watch TV, you can’t do this and that but, they neglect to teach the right law of God. Do well to others, do not neglect the poor.


Is there something wrong being clean appearance? NOPE! As long you clean your hearts and mind first. The book of Col. 2:8 give us such a warning about this type of tradition of men. Let us read further what the scriptures has to say shall we?


Col. 2:8 (KJV)


Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition of men, after the rudiments of the world, and not after Christ.


Remember Antichrist is a great leader, knows how to use big words, and he is also known as double talk, he also uses the tradition of men to combined the intellectual using and spreading the great ideas to attract mankind but this antichrist is not after Christ.


What are the teaching traditions of men? Not after Christ.


They tell you…You can’t watch TV. Wow! But they allowed themselves to have computer. They even advertise their church in the internet. Do you know you can rent movies through the internet? Why make yourself fool out of yourself? Why?


Is the Bible tells us you can’t watch TV? Do you know everywhere you go such as parties, job wise, TV watcher, radio listener whatever maybe we will always hear the vain conversation to others. Is that mean you have to say the way they say the vain conversation? NOPE! You have a choice between to say good things and bad things to others but, as far as teaching you can’t watch TV is not scriptural. Remember there is a lot of good educational TV or computer that you can learn. Your choice!


There are some leaders teaching that you cannot wear rings. Mmmm. Did the Bible say you can’t wear ring? I heard this type of teaching for over 15 years and then after 15 years the man who taught these type of teaching changes his mind. Now, they are allowed to wear rings.


What happened to those faithful saints that who does not wear their rings for over 30 years? They lost their confidence to this antichrist man sits in the temple church. Not only had that lost half of the congregation. Be careful how we teach the Word of God over the years and then all of sudden changing the setting of your policy using the name of our God is a very high price penalty. People will lose their trust to you and to the God you are referring to.


The book of Romans 14:13 say…”that no man put a stumbling block or an occasion to fall in his brother’s way”


Do you know Jesus mention the ring in Luke 15:22? Ring has many symbolize such as an authorization it depends what topic we are referring to? We probably most of us knows the story a young man ask the portion of goods and he wasted his substance with riotous living now, he end up living swine food. Read the entire chapter of Luke 15.


Will you teach the Word of God differently just to lure mankind to come to your church? Telling people cannot wear ring and using the name of the Lord’s name? The Bible says…for many shall come in my name…and shall deceive many Matthew 24:5.


We can also read the book of Esther 8:8 about the king’s ring. The king’s ring is a sealed meaning no man reverse what the king’s authorization.


We can also read the book of James 2:2 a man with a gold ring, and there come in also a poor man in vile raiment. There are two types of people telling us between rich man and poor man. James told us not to neglect the poor man it is because we see a man with a gold ring.


If we read further James 2:3 letting us knows that we are not being fair for others. Why not? Today’s world regardless a high leaders of nation, leader of the other churches, popular richest man in the world putting down those poor is not an option to God for you to set them aside.


If we claim ourselves as One Church we should not see the poor people among us. Why not? According to the Deut. 15:4 Save when there shall be no poor among you; for the LORD shall greatly bless thee in the land which the LORD thy God giveth thee for an inheritance to possess it:


We are to be ashamed to ourselves when we claim that we have a better church than others while so many homeless running around with your area but not one finger of yours cannot help them or not moved them to help them out just like Jesus said…


Matthew 23:4 (KJV) For they bind heavy burdens and grievous to be borne, and lay them on men's shoulders; but they themselves will not move them with one of their fingers.


If your area many homeless don’t call your church is a church. The true Gospel of Christ is all about feeding the poor with physical food and spiritual food at the same time.


Jesus fed five thousand as physical food and He demonstrate the spiritual miracle food at the same time. The five loaves it feds 5,000 men Mark 8:19.


Are you Servant of God? Servant means somebody who serves another. A servant of God doesn’t have a sitting down job. A servant works more than everybody else.


A SERVANT OF GOD IS A HIGH CALLING IS NOT A SITTING DOWN JOB!


Old Testament and New Testament God chosen they are called servant of God. We can read some of the listing of the Old and New Testament law just to remind us they are in a high calling the servants of God. Works and faith with action not a sitting down job.


Genesis 26:24 Abraham servant of the LORD.


Exodus 4:10 Moses servant of the LORD.


Joshua 5:14 Joshua servant of the LORD.


2 Samuel 7:26 David servant of the LORD.


Romans 1:1 Paul, a servant of Jesus Christ.


James 1:1 James, a servant of God and of the Lord Jesus Christ.


What I am trying to across the point? My point is if these servants of God never did their works they just stay home. We will never find out who is the God of Israel today. The Old and New Testament they are connected with faith and works with action.


Do you know even the God of Israel He made him a little lower than the angels for the suffering of death? Hebrew 2:9 Why? In order for Himself to find out the suffering of death, in other words if you are called servant of God you must feel the starvation of the people in order for you how it feels when they are starving. Meaning you had been there in their shoes.


Can you imagine every day some of us we eat at least three times a day. What about others? Especially, those homeless people had no food maybe for a day or two days without eating. Let just kind a pretend and place their shoe to your shoe. Let us try not to eat see what happen. Think about it!


So if we have bunches churches everywhere but, we see bunches of homeless people each corner of the street we have to be ashamed to ourselves meaning the Gospel of Christ is not really had been performed as the Gospel teaches. Mark 7:6 says..This people honoureth me with their lips, but their heart is far from me…read on…further…or read the whole chapter Mark 7 we can really find out the tradition of men.


Mark 7:8 (KJV) For laying aside the commandment of God, ye hold the tradition of men, as the washing of pots and cups: and many other such like things ye do.


So what would you do if you see someone sleeping bridges, or park benches, or in a street. Will you by pass them? Will you call the church to do something about it? What the true church do? What Jesus has to say about these things? Feed my sheep!


Possibility the best thing to describe the Gospel of Christ and learn little further more to get more information is to read the entire of chapter two book of James. See if you can understand the whole concept beside the Salvation of God given to all mankind!
