Beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and of the Saducees
Extract from church program
On 29th May 2016, I was in a service at a famous church in Kwara state where a Rev made mention of a pastor who said that those who come to church once in a week will go straight to hell fire. He said that we must at least visit the so called house of God twice in a week in order to have eternal life. Then the pastor of that same church also conclude by telling the people that they should start coming to the weekly service in order to escape hell fire. Can this be really true was my response to the statement. Are we saved by attending church programs. what a babbaric and disgusting statement was that. A building has now taken the place of Jesus who is the only mediator between God and Men. Apostle Paul said in his epistle to the Ephesian 2:8-9 " For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God; Not of works, lest any man should boast. if going to church twice in a week will make you escape the coming judgement then Christ dies for nothing. In fact His death is useless and worthless. please brothers and sisters over there, Jesus told us in Luke 16:11 that we should beware of the leaven (doctrine, teachings) of the pharisees and Sadducees. These group of people will try to pervert the gosple in order to suit their desire. If going to the so called house of God which in the first instance is not the house of God will save us, i think Jesus himself would have informed the thief on his right hand that you have not fulfil the requirement for heaven and now it is too late to ask for it. The only way to that eternal life is through Jesus. Jesus is Lord.
