*Nazarene costume* Daily Dose 2 August
By Eddy Joel Silsbee
Greetings to you in the name of Jesus the Nazarene.
An incident that happened about 20 years ago. A group in the south of India had invited me to speak in a Gospel Meeting. While sitting and talking with the preacher after the meeting is over, one of his member of the congregation came and said to him, "Everything is ready, pls come and say a prayer so we can proceed to burial"! He rudely denied going with him saying that preachers are Priests and not supposed to go near any dead bodies !!
I felt sad and I explained this preacher clearly before I left there.
Whether or not to go to the grave and pray is another subject.. But we notice their boasting of themselves comparing them with OT priesthood !!
*From where such doctrines are brought?*
Anyone who is taken a vow of Nazarite, he shall not go near to the dead body of even his/her own mother or dad passed away. He can neither drink a grape juice nor grape fruit nor its seed even. He can neither shave nor trim his hair (Num 6:1-12). Based on this scripture, these half-baked buffoons are duplicitous the people.
When Jesus Christ lived in this world He went near the corpse and raised them alive. Drank grape juice. He was never under Nazarene fast. He was called a Nazarene because He came from Nazareth (Matt. 2:23).
We must not forget that all Christians are priests, not just dedicated Preachers. 1 Peter 2:9, Rev. 1:6, 5:10, 20:6, 1 Peter 2:5, Isa 61:6
Furthermore, we cannot deny that the Law was fulfilled in Jesus' death on the cross and that the new oath came into force. Rom 10:4, Acts 13:38-39; 1 Cor 1:30; Galatians 3:24; Col 2:10, 2:17; Eph 9: 7-14, Eph 10: 8-12, 14
All who practice the Law of Moses are under a curse; .... Galatians 3:10
... No man is justified before God by the works of the law of Moses. Rom 3:20
If you claim to be a Christian and do not follow Christ; it is a disguise of being a Christian on the Christian stage!
Show the true Christ to the outside world. Galatians 3:27
Then the life itself would be holy. 1 Cor 6: 19-20
Any Christian not following Christ is guise.
