The fourth point of the signs the true faith neither prove
nor disprove is active service.
In Wikipedia I found the following explanations of words:
"Being active be called working" And
" the Service is fulfilling a religious duty. " (http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dienst)
Thus the active service is, to act in the fulfillment of a
religious duty. We already recognize from the definition the reason, why so
active service can not be evidence to prove or disprove true faith. In all
religions, there are people, the actively engaged in the performance of
religious duties. So will be found today in all Christian denotations religious
rites and forms of worship, which God had never desired.
The Bible is filled with warnings against false active
service, and yet we experiencing are today these false service. Thus we read in
Jeremiah 27, 15: "I have not sent
them,’ declares the Lord. ‘They are prophesying lies in my name. Therefore, I
will banish you and you will perish, both you and the prophets who prophesy to
you."
Here we see very clearly that God is not only punish the
false teachers and prophets, but also every person who believes these doctrines.
Which in turn shows us, how important it is the Word of God to know exactly.
So also the Apostle Paul in 2 Timothy 3, 5 wrote: "having a form of godliness but denying
its power. Have nothing to do with them."
So you see that neither religious rites nor the belonging to
a church, can save you. Only the true faith on the real Jesus Christ can save
you. That is the Jesus Christ the we only can find in the Bible. Here alone you
can get to know him, as he really is and learn from him. It is our Lord Jesus
Christ himself the in Matthew 7, 21 - 23 urgently warns: "Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom
of heaven, but only he who does the will of my Father who is in heaven. Many
will say to me on that day, ‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name, and
in your name drive out demons and perform many miracles?’ Then I will tell them
plainly, ‘I never knew you. Away from me, you evildoers!"
We know as he spoke these words, this he does not spoke to
the gentiles and the unbelievin. He spoke these words to people who her whole
life have thought, to know the real Jesus Christ. In fact, they were seduced by
false teachers and prophets. So are they all lost, because they have failed to
know the Word of God. They did not test with the Bible every doctrine the they
have heard. For this reason the apostle Paul wrote to the Romans in Chapter 2,
13 - 14: "For it is not those who
hear the law who are righteous in God’s sight, but it is those who obey the law
who will be declared righteous. 14 (Indeed, when Gentiles, who do not have the
law, do by nature things required by the law, they are a law for themselves,
even though they do not have the law,"
Especially today where so many which perform active
service are guilty fornication with children and child abuse and
of the churches and their servants still protected; every one must recognize,
that they can not be employed by God. Anyone who reads the Bible must also see
that the worship and the festivals which are today be held have nothing to do
with God or Jesus Christ. It is preserved only the form of godliness. But the
rules are of men and not of God!
But there is indifference among the faithful, and no one is
afraid of the many warnings of God which He has revealed to us in the Bible. Be
certainly, at the day of the judgment of the Lord it will be too late! I think
the Apostle Paul is right, as he wrote in 2.Timothy 2, 19: "Nevertheless, God’s solid foundation stands firm, sealed with
this inscription: “The Lord knows those who are his,” and, “Everyone who
confesses the name of the Lord must turn away from wickedness."
God gave us free will. We must decide for themselves. But we
should not forget that we can opt either for him or against him. An
intermediate does not exist.
God bless you! Shalom
God presides in the
great assembly; he gives judgment among the “gods”: “How long will youa defend the unjust and
show partiality to the wicked? Selah Defend the cause of the weak and fatherless; maintain
the rights of the poor and oppressed. Rescue the weak and needy; deliver them
from the hand of the wicked. “They know nothing, they understand nothing. They
walk about in darkness; all the foundations of the earth are shaken. “I said,
‘You are “gods”; you are all sons of the Most High.’ But you will die like mere
men; you will fall like every other ruler.” Rise up, O God, judge the earth, for
all the nations are your inheritance. Amen
(Psalm 82,1-8)
