Deplorable Traditions
12/15/10 From The Lord, Our God and Savior
The Word of The Lord Spoken to Timothy
For All Those Who Have Ears to Hear
(Regarding the holidays of men)
Thus says The Lord: All these things which these modern people do in My name, though they be called Christian or otherwise, I DO HATE! I loathe the sight of them! - Dead works! Abominations! Deplorable traditions, in where they have despised both Me and My Word!
Behold, even the churches of men pollute My name and My glory. Day after day, they twist the Scriptures and tread upon My Holy Law, in an effort to uphold their own way. Behold, from house to house they pollute the name of The Messiah, desecrating The Glory of My majesty, as they attempt to place the name of The Holy One upon their perverse traditions! Reason has altogether departed from them, the truth is cast down, and righteousness has perished! For not one is willing to embrace Me as I truly am!
Therefore, thus says The Lord to the churches of men: Your worship is in vain! Your offerings are not accepted! Behold, even your prayers are an abomination! For you do always turn your ear away from hearing The Holy Law, and have not ceased from practicing those things I hate! Modern Pharisees! Arrogant children!
Behold, you have made for yourselves a graven image, an intricately woven tapestry of man-made doctrine and idolatrous tradition, interlacing sin with sin, all in the name of your “Jesus,” another messiah which you have created in your own image! Desecration! Blasphemy! YOU KNOW NEITHER ME, NOR MY WORD!
Thus I call all those who desire to serve Me
In truth and righteousness, to tear down
Every whitewashed wall of abomination!...
For this is not a light matter with Me,
But carries great weight, filling the cup of
My indignation throughout your generations!...
And behold, I shall surely pour out!...
Until My wrath is satisfied and My anger has abated,
Until the whole breadth of the whole earth
Is cleansed in the heat of My fury!...
