Positive In Christ, versus Negative in the world… How often have you heard the statement, “I just can’t stand to be around old so`n`so, because he/she IS Always so negative about everything. Well, did you consider, exactly why this person IS So negative toward everything? Everything that is of this world? Have you for a moment considered that just maybe that person that you can’t stand to be around, because they are sooooo negative, is in actuality ~Positive~ for the ~Right~ and negative against the wrong that is displayed by so many ways of the world? Who do you suppose that the Pharisees, and the Sadducees considered To Be Negative? WHO was always making them uncomfortable with His Negative sayings about the things that they did?
What did Jesus warn His ~Truthful~ followers? Those who weren’t afraid to stand against the adversary and dump the traditions of men that follow the ways of the world?
(John 15:18).. “IF the world hate you, ye know that it hated Me before it hated you.” (KJV)
(Matthew 15:3) .. Jesus said, “Why do ye also transgress the commandment of God ~BY~ *Your* tradition?”
Men’s celebrations ARE traditions of their own making, not commanded of, or By God… Nowhere IS IT Written that God wants HIS children to mix false teachings of pagan customs into the memorials of The Blessed Birth of HIS Son on this earth, nor the Crucifixion and Resurrection, but mankind has done this very thing and called IT A ~~Positive~~ when in fact IT IS A positively charged message for the ways of the world led by Satan the Devil, the serpent, and IT IS Indeed A very ~Blatant Negative~ of The True Gospel OF Christ.
(Mark 7:8).. Jesus SAID: “For ~laying aside~ The Commandments of God, ye hold the ~traditions of men~, as the washing of pots and cups: and many other such things…”
Now, think about this statement for one second, IS there anything wrong, by mans way of thinking, with washing, making clean a pot or a cup? Hey, we are a germ conscious generation ain’t we? We do wash and clean things automatically, how can it be written that this IS Laying Aside The Commandment OF God? When He instructs us to be clean, have our garments washed? Just what does this mean? The best way to answer this IS to go back and ~~READ~~ The Commandments That God gave that STILL Stand Today, for HIS children to obey and follow….
From the beginning of mankind, to the first couple God said, “thou shalt NOT”! Did they obey?
(Exodus 20: 4-26) Read ~ALL~ that THE LORD had written for us to follow - perpetually… Then Jesus reiterated these Commands in more depth, in (Matthew 5:) for example the Command of” “Thou ~Shalt NOT~ commit adultery.. Jesus said IF you even ~Look upon another to lust after them IT IS Adultery… AND you will hear messages form pastors to this effect, of adultery between a man and a woman, but you will not hear a message on: “thou shalt not commit ~spiritual~ adultery, because IT IS Not popular and would convict the throngs of folks which do just that with their celebrations that are carried on even in the Churches, ie egg hunts, easter rabbits, chicks, Santa Claus, face paintings, and more… of which The Bible warns us not to take part in because they are of the world, and not of God…
(II Peter 2:14) .. Having eyes ~full of adultery~, and cannot cease from sin, beguiling unstable souls: an heart they have ~exercised~ with covetous practices, cursed children: which ~Have Forsaken~ the *Right Way* and are gone astray..
Sadly these traditions have been carried on for so long and handed down from generation to generation that folks today think that what they are doing IS Right, because ma & pa did it…
And sadly again, these very traditions were adopted by The Catholic Church from the pagans of that day who celebrated them, NOT For Christ, BUT For false gods and goddesses, in order to bring the pagans into a Church relationship, hoping to reform them… Which only ended with the Church conforming to the world, instead of reforming or transforming the people….. Which still goes on today in ~ALL~ Houses of Worship that carry on these false traditions of men… Written Warning!
(Romans 12:2).. Be ~NOT Conformed~ to this world: BUT~ Be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may ~~PROVE~~ what IS THAT Good, and ~ACCEPTABLE~ and ~PERFECT~ *WILL OF GOD*…
AND: Jesus said:
(Mark 3:35).. “FOR ~whosoever~ shall do The Will of God, the same IS My brother, sister, and mother… He did not say carry on the traditions of your family but Do the Will OF God… And God had HIS Will for us Written that we may follow IT, and not mans way.
(Revelation 2:22) Behold, I Will cast her into a bed, and them that commit adultery with her into great tribulation, except they repent of their deeds…. Except the people Repent of the false teachings, and misleading traditions that IT has adopted from the world led by Satan what does Jesus Say He Will DO?
(Mark 7:13) .. “Making the ~word~ of God of none effect through your tradition, which ye have delivered and many such things do ye…
By the mixing in of pagan customs and holding them up as a tradition to be taught as though it was from God, IS In Fact making the ~Written Word of God of no effect in the hearts, thoughts, and minds of the little children to which IT IS taught, and the weak minded adults that follow mans teachings rather than seek the Instruction of God’s Written Word… AND YET we are warned of this in many places…
(Colossians 2:8).. 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…
What Jesus taught while He walked among men on this earth WAS ~Positive~.. And IF we seek His Words, His Teachings In Truth, as they are Written in red in the Gospels, penned down by faithful men who followed Him and not Caesar , then our words will truly be positive. But the teachings of man, by man for the glory of self are all negative….
Questions to seek answers to, that one may see the ~Truth~ of God’s Written Word…
Did Jesus tell His disciples TO: follow Caesar, lift up the government, praise the warriors of that day? Did Jesus teach His disciples to decorate trees and celebrate His earthly birth? OR theirs? Did Jesus, tell His disciples that their earthly anniversaries or accomplishments for anything was to be honored in the synagogues and temples? Did Jesus, instruct His disciples, to play the games of the nations, enter into the competitions, parade them into the places of worship, build up a great name for themselves and in this they could honor His Father in Heaven? Read God’s Written Word OF ~ALL~ Instruction, not man’s propaganda that lays out a good path of success in the world to eternal destruction… What DID Jesus Say?
(Matthew 4:4) .. He said, “*IT* IS Written*, man shall not live by bread alone, by ~BY~ every word that proceeded out of the mouth of God…
(Only these ~Words~ are *POSITIVE* and Positively Charged with Godly Instruction, all else IS A SAD Negative…)
