Summary of what I learnt from the teachings of bro Eli.
After baptism we will work in new life because if any man be in Christ he is a new creature.because even Jesus Christ entered a new realm on Earth after he was baptized,as a Christian we should be baptized to really solidify our relationship with God
2Corinthians 5:17
Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new.
What are the grievous sins that will not be forgiven anymore. There are two types of sin in the Bible. Sin unto death and sin which is not until death.
John 15:16
If any man see his brother sin a sin which is not unto death, he shall ask, and he shall give him life for them that sin not unto death. There is a sin unto death: I do not say that he shall pray for it.
If a brethren in our midst commits a sin unto death we should not pray for him because God will not listen.
But if a brother commits a sin not unto death we are commanded by God to pray for the person.
If a member commits a sin unto death such person should be expelled. If we do not expel evil people others will be corrupt too and that will cause chaos in the church leading brethrens astray.
Romans 1:32
32who knowing the judgment of God, that they which commit such things are worthy of death, not only do the same, but have pleasure in them that do them.
Mathew 12:32
And whosoever speaketh a word against the Son of man, it shall be forgiven him: but whosoever speaketh against the Holy Ghost, it shall not be forgiven him, neither in this world, neither in the world to come.
If you purposely blaspheme or violate the holy spirit you won't be forgiven but if you are ignorant of it you will be forgiven.
Any man who commits a grievous sin will not be forgiven. Any man who intentionally speak against the holy spirit will not forgiven in this life and in the life after.
Mark 3:29
but he that shall blaspheme against the Holy Ghost hath never forgiveness, but is in danger of eternal damnation:
The holy spirit forbids us to eat things offered to idols; idols are man made gods made with silver, gold, wood. Bowing down to man made gods is idolatry and it is abominable before God. because in today's world especially in India they serve alot man made God's ,they turn gods be it inanimate and living creatures like birds,snakes all manner of animal incapable of creating them and talking to what they serve.
Act 15:28-29
28For it seemed good to the Holy Ghost, and to us, to lay upon you no greater burden than these necessary things; 29that ye abstain from meats offered to idols, and from blood, and from things strangled, and from fornication: from which if ye keep yourselves, ye shall do well. Fare ye well.
1Peter 4:3
3For the time past of our life may suffice us to have wrought the will of the Gentiles, when we walked in lasciviousness, lusts, excess of wine, revellings, banquetings, and abominable idolatries:
We should worship the creator not the creation if we worship the creation more than God it is an abomination before God.
We should not worship angels too because they are creations too only before God should we kneel to and worship.so it is wrong to pray to to the images of Mary because it is against the doctrine of God
Revelation 22:9
9Then saith he unto me, See thou do it not: for I am thy fellowservant, and of thy brethren the prophets, and of them which keep the sayings of this book: worship God.
Thank you and God bless you all brethren
Thanks for your post I really appreciate it because a lot of people don't know what to do and what is wrong before the Lord.
Some we speak to God as if he is there mate some do not even have regard for God and whenever they are in the house of god they will behave as if they are in the house of party or club.
Someone will go to church by not covering their head and son can wear any clothes to church the clothes that do not cover their nakedness which they can wear to a club you just have to know that we need to respect this god.
Some will be praying and if someone is speaking in tongue they will be making jest of the person and say the person is not picky very well that is why we need to be careful the way we talk to man of God.
Though some are pretending to be a man of God we should be careful not sin through them because their behaviour make someone to send against the holy Spirit so we just have to be careful so that they will not put us into such sin.
And concerning the offering offer to idols a lot of people don't care they believe that it is nothing.
I pray may god forgive us all our sins.
