Matthew 15:2 Why do thy disciples transgress the tradition of the elders? for they wash not their hands when they eat bread.
We live in CHANGING times - stop judging!
If I choose to hug a pretty princess around her waist who is wearing a skirt that is above her knees, and let her travel with me in these blog entries all around the world, GOD isn't going to send me to HELL for doing that.
While it is quite OK to respect tradition and the way things were done by our parents, grandparents and forefathers, making TRADITION your GOD will send you straight to HELL. Sadly, there are millions of people in a traditional relationship with their church and pastor and have NO GOD in their hearts. They spend time watching others, criticizing and gossiping as to how others should live their lives while their very own lives are sometimes in total SHAMBLES.
From the Old Testament through to the New Testament even up until today, it is clear to see that times and cultures have changed drastically. We are no longer in the stone age. We are now in a technological age. We don't scratch stones to make a fire anymore, we use matches or an electric stove. Do you get my point? We live in changing times and people and cultures change EVERYDAY as they are ENLIGHTENED to the TRUTH.
The war between what is right and what is wrong has always been waged through the generations. The older folks feel their way is the right way and condemn the youths for doing things DIFFERENTLY. It happened in Bible days when Pastor Jesus walked the earth too. Let's look at one occurrence although there are countless in the New Testament. Matthew 15:2 Why do thy disciples transgress the tradition of the elders? for they wash not their hands when they eat bread.
Here were folks looking on and judging and condemning Pastor Jesus and his followers. Pastor Jesus was a brilliant HOT MOUTH though. Let's see what he says to the criticizers. Matthew 15:3 But he answered and said unto them, Why do ye also transgress the commandment of God by your tradition?
Pastor Jesus called them out for condemning others and questioned why THEY WERE NOT CHOOSING TO OBEY AND FOLLOW GOD but rather following TRADITION and not daring to be different. They got a rude awakening and as He continued teaching in that passage of scripture, the people's eyes opened and THEY SHUT THEIR MOUTHS as they began to understand that TRADITION WON'T GET THEM INTO HEAVEN, but a real, true, frank and down to earth relationship with God would.
Dare 2 Be Different International - www.daretobedifferentskn.com has done things differently since we were founded on 1st June, 2008. The criticizers and haters have talked over the years and we have made it to eight years with God constantly blessing on our ministry and partner businesses over and over and over and over again.
When ever folks question or condemn the DIFFERENT ways and strategies we use in our GOSPEL MINISTRY, I simply respond, "If we were doing something WRONG, God wouldn't be sending so much BLESSINGS and SUCCESS to Dare 2 Be Different International - www.daretobedifferentskn.com and KVK ENTERPRISES - www.kvklives.com." After that statement, many SHUTUP and a few would comment and say, "Is true you know, is true because they really doing good and standing out and reaching and blessing the world for real. E gotta be dey doing something Godly, RIGHT and GOOD for real!"
We live in CHANGING times - stop judging! Our ministry isn't into the CONDEMNING business, we're into the LOVING business. That's how people CHANGE, when they are LOVED, then they are more willing to follow a particular SYSTEM. We won't spend our time criticizing other religions when we have a GREAT work to continue to do which is to INFLUENCE the masses to put their trust in GOD and follow Pastor Jesus' example of love for all without discrimination.
John 1:12 But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name:
We live in CHANGING times - stop judging!
