This is a hard word for some ... Im posting this for those Christians that are of the impression that you can run game on God. I want the very best for you. The following addresses the treatment of parents and (grandparents) among other concerns. Check yourself in this area. Are you giving to the Church that which should be given to the elders of your family? Are you giving time to the Church to avoid spending time with your elders? Are you doing anything for the Church that you are not doing for the elders of your family....? Do you know the first commandment with promise? Are you a Hypocrite? (Jesus word not mind...) Matthew 15 Living Bible (TLB) 15 Some Pharisees and other Jewish leaders now arrived from Jerusalem to interview Jesus. 2 “Why do your disciples disobey the ancient Jewish traditions?” they demanded. “For they ignore our ritual of ceremonial handwashing before they eat.” 3 He replied, “And why do your traditions violate the direct commandments of God? 4 For instance, God’s law is ‘Honor your father and mother; anyone who reviles his parents must die.’ 5-6 But you say, ‘Even if your parents are in need, you may give their support money to the church[a] instead.’ And so, by your man-made rule, you nullify the direct command of God to honor and care for your parents. 7 You hypocrites! Well did Isaiah prophesy of you, 8 ‘These people say they honor me, but their hearts are far away. 9 Their worship is worthless, for they teach their man-made laws instead of those from God.’[b]” 10 Then Jesus called to the crowds and said, “Listen to what I say and try to understand: 11 You aren’t made unholy by eating nonkosher food! It is what you say and think that makes you unclean.”[c] 12 Then the disciples came and told him, “You offended the Pharisees by that remark.” 13-14 Jesus replied, “Every plant not planted by my Father shall be rooted up, so ignore them. They are blind guides leading the blind, and both will fall into a ditch.”
