Do Elders
Exercise Command Authority:
Authority
of Elders. Elders are beginning to insist that
the congregation must "obey" their command
rulership "even if we teach false doctrine."
Their followers actually identify them as
"celestial beings" which must not be
questioned. Elders rule by teaching and
disciples obey by conforming to the teaching
but only to the extent that the elders "teach
that which has been taught." Obedience is to
the teaching and the "outcome of the lives of
the elders." Elders are not elected but
identified as those "already laboring to the
point of exhaustion in teaching and
preaching." Elders increasling follow the
Saddle Back or Purpose Driven Cult in levels
of membership and the signing of covenants.

Shelly and others as as
An
approved Pattern for Christian Worship and
Community.

turned Israel over to worship the starry host

by reversing this pattern God actually said
that "we can worship the S.O.N. God as the

Grace Centered Cult Top
The Grace
Centered cult says clearly: "We know that we
are probably wrong but God's grace will save
us. Therefore, grace gives us liberty. Keeping
Christ's commandments is defined as anti-grace
legalism because of the belief that commands
and examples of God are not authority for
faith and practice.
For
instance, the key creed of Grace Centered
Magazine is that churches of Christ are
legalistic. The primary sin of Bible beleivers
is that they "sowed discord" by refusing to
submit to the forced introduction of musical
instruments. As usual, the apologetics in
favor of instrumental music shows a total lack
of basic knowledge of the Bible, church
history and the continuing acknowledge that
THERE IS NO MUSIC word used in the entire
Bible in connection with the worship of a
Spirit God.
The
Grace-Centered important supporter is Rubel
Shelly.
The
Grace-Centered movement gives permission as a
Post-Modern, Post-Biblica movement to attack
those who believe that "grace teaches" and
grace or charisma is the power God gives to
live according to His will.

Hands, Lifting "holy" hands Top
No one
really "lead public prayers." Prayer is
personal. Lifting holy hands would be like one
holding a book for reading: palm up. There is
no concept of "lifting holy arms" above your
head whereas this has always said more about
one's gender than they may want to say. To
lift one's hands is to turn the palms upward
as did David in lifting up his hands to God's
commandments.

Holy Spirit Top
"Spirit"
does not mean "person." And "Holy Spirit" is
not the name of a "member" of the god family.
Spirit in both Hebrew and Greek means the
"mental disposition" of a perso. God is The
Spirit and because He is not COMPOSED of
anything not Spirit then He is Holy or Pure
Spirit. As God's Holy Spirit is to the Mind of
Christ (1 Cor 2) my spirit is to my mind: mind
and spirit are often interchangeable.

Spirit
or Mental Disposition
|
There is
only ONE God. The 1940's view of God as a
family, clan or committee is a destructive
heresy. The word "trinity" in the historical
views NEVER envisioned three, separated
persons of a God family. Neither is God a
person: I am a person (people) but I am not
god; my dog has personality but he is not God.
The writers did not use the word person but personae. That is, the
ONE, undividedGod manifests Himself in three
images. At time, He is Arm, Door or Way but
these are personificatons. We will look at
most of the major historical writings about
the Godhead but never find three gods holding
a planning conference.
Holy Spirit, Word of Christ
Connection Top
"Spirit"
means mental disposition and Jesus said "my
Words are Spirit and Life" (John 6:63).
Throughout the NT an identity is drawn between
the Spirit or Mind of Christ and the Words of
Christ.

Instrumental Music By Authors Top
Instrumental
Music By Authors Over 300
ancient and modern documents on music as
worship. The
See a
great summary of why Presbyterians and
others rejected music as worship because
music had never been used in "worship."
"Music" is
never used in the Bible to describe spiritual
worship to God. Rather, the Greek Sumphonia
speaks of true music which in the classics is
often defined as "singing and dancing." Music
defines the end-time Babylonian Harlot worship
as it defined the beginning Babylonian
religion at the towers of Babylon. Paul never
commanded "singing" as we know it. Rather, his
often direct command is to "teach one another"
and the only resource available to us is "that
which has been written" (Rom 15), The Spirit
(Eph 5) which Jesus said is His Word (John
6:63) and "the word of Christ" (Col. 3).
Complex harmony (organum) accomplishes the
same mind-deluding goal as instrumental music.
Both defeat the purpose for which Paul used
the word "singing" as the internal result of
outward speaking or teaching or preaching.

Jubilee and the Y2K
expectations Top
Reviews
of published documents on the Jubilee and
The New Wineskins Movement
In 1987
the Pope called for Jubilee 2000 with
intermediate Jubilees. Rubel Shelly, Steve
Flatt formed the Jubilee Corporation to
promote the urge for an ecumenical church
which if not organized with would recognize a
one world religion. The CORE gospel and the
Post Modern, Post Biblical view made it
difficult to throw away old views and form a
music to restructure churches of Christ around
a Gnostic structure. To that end they
organized huge gatherings to teach people how
to "raise holy hands, clap hands, lay on
hands, sing and play instruments around the
Asherah poles" and a host of efforts in an
attempt to fracture the old churches of Christ
and give them a second incarnation as a
neo-pagan system. The Jubilee implies a need
for an atonement which one gained, like the
Catholics, by attending the mass meetings and
denouncing the old churches. This Jubilee
pattern includes the idea of breaking up the
ownership of individual property and returning
it to the "tribal groups."
Kabbalah: Law and Temple as
Judgment Top
While
Christians are tempted to skip the real story
and see the temple as God's ordained place and
method of worship. the Bible would say:
nonsense. When Jerusalem fell for the last
time the Jewish scholars rejected their
traditions and returned to the Old Testament.
They were quite astounded to find that the Law
had been added because of transgression and
the Temple was "like the nations" or a pagan
temple because that is what the Israelite
demanded to go along with their human king.

Lifting Hands as Ritual
Paul
always identifies prayer as "praying in the
spirit." That means praying in the homan mind
or spirit even as Jesus demanded that ALL
worship be in the PLACE of the human mind

meets us. He does not define a pecking order
of leading prayer but the spiritual
qualifications for both male and female to
pray
"in their spirit."

Miracles Top
Seems like
all of life is a miracle. Certainly answered
prayer is supernatural. However, the term
"answered prayer" and "a miracle" have
different meanings. In fact, Jesus got Himself
threatened with death to suggests that
"miracles are rare." A miracle is "God's
design of certifying that this teacher or
leader has been commissioned by him." (Luke
4:27). Those in the synagogue flew into an
orge of wrath and tried to throw Him off a
high hill. So, if answered prayer is a miracle
Jesus said "there won't be many."
Miracles
Most urges
for modern miracles is to get a direct control
of the "Spirit Person" and get new revelaton.
John Calvin addressed this
false idea about continuing revelation.
Narrative Theology Top
Most
preaching flows from Narrative Theology. This
is the notion that all of the Scriptures have
been sifted to fit the personal agenda of the
Bible writers. Therefore, there is no truth
except as we can narrate it to become the
Moses or Jesus for our age.
Narrative
Theology affirms a given community's right to
come up with its own interpretation, or to
"write" its own new biblical text. And, what
is the purpose of reading texts, for narrative
theologians? Why, of course, to affirm the
self."
