PROMOTION OF HUMAN TRADITIONS OVER GODS WORD HINDERS BREAKTHROUGHS 

March 9 , 2024

By Rev.Michael Benson Ajayi 

"Their worship is a farce, for they teach man-made ideas as commands from God.’ ”Matthew 15:9 NLT

" Then he said, “You skillfully sidestep God’s law in order to hold on to your own tradition."Mark 7:9 NLTBible 

   The laws of Moses were mixed by the religious teachers with human traditions to produce another law to oppress their followers . There was no equity and fairness in the judicial  system . The same applies to many Churches today ,they teach man- made theology which promotes corruption in the society . Tradition teaches that your sins are acceptable as long as you keep donating money to religious leaders. Human traditions lacks the life transformation power of Gods word ." Then he said, “You skillfully sidestep God’s law in order to hold on to your own tradition."Mark 7:9 NLT

   The Bible warns us against exalting man's traditions above God's word . Human tradition is not bad in itself as long as it is just , fair and honours God. . 

    The religious teachers of Jesus' time were promoting their traditions above God's word. The scriptures says " Jesus replied, “And why do you, by your traditions, violate the direct commandments of God?  Their worship is a farce, for they teach man-made ideas as commands from God.’ ”Matthew 15:3‭, ‬9 

  They promoted their denominations above God's family resulted in divisions amongst God's people .   "Now I say this, that each of you says, “I am of Paul,” or “I am of Apollos,” or “I am of Cephas,” or “I am of Christ.” Is Christ divided? Was Paul crucified for you? Or were you baptized in the name of Paul? 1 Corinthians 1:12‭-‬13 NKJV and 

"I appeal to you, dear brothers and sisters, by the authority of our Lord Jesus Christ, to live in harmony with each other. Let there be no divisions in the church. Rather, be of one mind, united in thought and purpose. Has Christ been divided into factions? Was I, Paul, crucified for you? Were any of you baptized in the name of Paul? Of course not!" 1 Corinthians 1:10‭, ‬13 NLT

   We should follow after sound scriptural doctrines . Sound doctrines is that which allows for critical thinking and reasoning. Faith requires common sense or logic .That's why God gave man a brain . We do not need fasting and prayer to know fire burns the skin . The bible says " If you instruct the brethren in these things, you will be a good minister of Jesus Christ, nourished in the words of faith and of the good doctrine which you have carefully followed. But reject profane and old wives’ fables, and exercise yourself toward godliness .I Timothy 4:6‭-‬7 NKJV

 Prayer: Heavenly father  forgive me of my sins against  you I believe Jesus Christ died  and was raised again for my salvation I receive him as lord and saviour and receive the Holy Ghost and power for fruitfulness in Jesus name.
