While reclining, I felt the Spirit was directing me to write about God will not share or give His glory to anyone. The next day, I was given more to write, which include the guidelines for the church. This is a series to challenge leaders about not following Biblical guidelines given by God.

It’s amazing how we follow protocol when rules are given to us in the workplace and so on. And some even follow man’s rules for the church. Yet, when it comes to Biblical guidelines given by God, many people do not adhere to them.

The rules that God established for His church to follow have not changed. Being confident of this very thing, that He who has begun a good work in you will complete it until the day of Jesus Christ (Philippians 1:6). Notice that Paul uses the word confidence which means to have full assurance of, stand on it; don’t get swayed by others.
Since doctrines and traditions of men have their own way of thinking; leaning to their own understanding (Proverbs 3:5-6), much of the Word of God has been altered, changed, or not accepted.
I believe that is the very reason Paul wrote: What advantage then has the Jew, or what is the profit of circumcision? Much in every way! Chiefly because to them were committed the oracles of God. For what if some did not believe? Will their unbelief make the faithfulness of God without effect? Certainly not! Indeed, let God be true but every man a liar (Romans 3:1-4a).
Since God cannot lie, then it has to be people? (Numbers 23:19, Hebrews 6:18). Since God does not change, who gives His people the right to change His Word which emphasizes that God cannot change His mind about what He says or does (Malachi 3:6). We need to go back the Bible (The Way).
From AI - this term highlights that Christianity is more than just a set of beliefs, but a way of life based on following Jesus. It's a path, a direction, and a lifestyle that believers are called to live according to Jesus' teachings and example.
Therefore, they were called Bereans, noble men, and women of God (Acts 17:11); with the spirit of excellency. Because an excellent spirit, knowledge, and understanding to interpret dreams, explain riddles, and solve problems were found in this Daniel, whom the king named Belteshazzar (Daniel 5:12).

From this, a series of messages will be developed to challenge the church from God’s Word and see how far the body of Christ has veered away from the TRUTH.
