*Daily Dose*
-Eddy Joel Silsbee
Greetings to you in the name of our Lord and Shepherd Jesus Christ.
Since religions that claim to be Christian have begun to follow the practices
of the Catholics like The Lent Days, it is no wonder that in the future, like
the Catholics, *Mary* may also be given an important place in their worship !!
*What does the Bible says about Lent*?
Nothing is seen in the Bible on this Topic.
Instead in KJV version once such word appears in Bible at 1Sam. 2:20 but at a different context !!
*Can Christian observe Lent days*?
Instead of remembering the sufferings of Christ on the first day of each week, remembering Christ's suffering *once a year with certain fasting is the pure teaching of men*. Bible clearly says that "It is purely a man’s teaching if anyone preaches to refrain from any food".
… I am surprised that you are so quickly turning away from Him who called you in the grace of Christ to a different gospel, which is not another gospel, only there are some who are confusing you, and wanting to pervert the gospel of Christ. But even if we or an angel from heaven should preach any gospel to you other than what we preached to you, let him be accursed. And now, as we have said before, I am saying again: If anyone preaches any gospel to you other than what you received, let him be accursed. Gal. 1:6-10
Anyone who goes on and does not keep to the teaching of Christ, has not God: he who keeps to the teaching has the Father and the Son. 2 John 1:9
*What is wrong in observing Lent*?
Meditating about Lord’s death on yearly basis instead on the Lord’s day is against the Scripture.
For the time is coming (already came !!) when people will not endure sound teaching, but having itching ears they will accumulate for themselves teachers to suit their own passions, and will turn away from listening to the truth and wander off into myths. As for you, always be sober-minded.. 2 Tim. 4:3-5
Tomorrow will see more about this topic.
Listen only to God’s word… God will be with us – so, His blessings stay in us !!
