For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the cosmic powers over this present darkness, against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly places. – Ephesians 6:12
To attend the church
You must never say attending the church because the church is a spiritual entity, the fellowship of disciples of Christ with no walls and doors. You must despise Roman Catholic false teaching which states that God lives in the temple and believers must attend the temple to worship God. God does not live in temples:
Yet the Most High does not dwell in houses made by hands, as the prophet says. – Acts 7:48
Ushers
You must never appoint believers on the position of usher. Apostles never taught about this position, so why would you have them among you? Disciples of Christ used to break bread at homes, so they were served by the house owners or other believers ready to assist. So with you, you must meet at houses for breaking bread and you must fellowship in public places whenever it is possible:
And day by day, attending the temple together and breaking bread in their homes, they received their food with glad and generous hearts. – Acts 2:46
Position of usher derived from Roman Catholicism and is intended to serve Roman Catholic members in their ungodly ceremonies. Your church ushers are responsible for seating, maintaining the order and security of a church service. Ushers are used by church leaders, pastors and priests during your ungodly ceremonies to force believers to sit quietly and accept all that church leaders are saying. Don’t you know that ushers are first to drag out those who publicly speak against church leaders? If you are one of the ushers, you shall leave this ungodly position.
Monopolizing the rights to teach
Do not let the Antichrist, your church leaders, pastors and priests, to monopolize public teaching enforcing ungodly traditions of their organizations. Everyone with the knowledge of God and understanding of the Scriptures must be allowed to teach publicly:
Let two or three prophets speak, and let the others weigh what is said. – 1 Corinthians 14:29
Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly, teaching and admonishing one another in all wisdom, singing psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, with thankfulness in your hearts to God. – Colossians 3:16
Church leaders, pastors and priests monopolize the public teaching by manipulating with the following scripture:
Not many of you should become teachers, my brothers, for you know that we who teach will be judged with greater strictness. – James 3:1
The above scripture warns you that if you teach someone God’s word, you will be judged more strictly. This scripture does not forbid you to be a teacher, contrary to what your church leaders claim, so they will have a monopoly on public teaching. This demonic practice derived from Catholicism where the priest only is allowed to lead their ungodly services.
Wrong application of the word “disrespect”
Do not say that someone disrespected the speaker when he or she spoke up publicly without authorization from the church leaders. When someone speaks up publicly without permission from church leaders during your meetings, this is a manifestation of the Holy Spirit. Disciples of Christ must be free to speak up publicly anytime during the gathering for Holy Spirit to flow freely:
Now the Lord is the Spirit, and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom. – 2 Corinthians 3:17
Worship service
Do not call your gatherings a church service or worship service because you must worship God by spirit and truth. You must serve God by obedience to Him. The fellowship of believers is neither worship nor a service.
But the hour is coming, and is now here, when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth, for the Father is seeking such people to worship him. – John 4:23
This Book of the Law shall not depart from your mouth, but you shall meditate on it day and night, so that you may be careful to do according to all that is written in it. For then you will make your way prosperous, and then you will have good success. – Joshua 1:8
The terms worship service and church service derived from Catholicism who erroneously believed that worship is done in the temple only and service is done by the rituals they have created for themselves. They have called their worship service a Holy Mass.
The chaos or havoc
When someone teaches the word of God which is contrary to the religious organization's traditions, he does not create havoc or chaos, as many church leaders claim to be, but this is the manifestation of the Holy Spirit which works against ungodly practices and teachings of demons. Your church leaders don’t like any arguments because they don’t want their false teachings to be exposed. As they say, “There is no perfect church”, and this is how they attempt to excuse themselves. The below scripture is clear, you must preach the word, rebuke, and exhort, even if someone does not agree with you:
…preach the word; be ready in season and out of season; reprove, rebuke, and exhort, with complete patience and teaching. – 2 Timothy 4:2
Drag out
You must never use physical force against your opponents because your fight is not against the flesh and blood but against the dark spiritual forces of this world. Do not be one with this world and so be condemned with it:
For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the cosmic powers over this present darkness, against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly places. – Ephesians 6:12
Jesus said about those who try to resolve the conflict by force:
Then Jesus said to him, "Put your sword back into its place. For all who take the sword will perish by the sword. – Matthew 26:52
Money contribution
The contributions and tithes are not the same. Believers must contribute their money to relieve other believers
