In a world full of people with different backgrounds, culture, teachings and ideas about God, where we have different styles of worshipping God. this looks like we are confused yet the bible says God is not the author of confusion ( 1 Cor 14:33) and God is not many but one ( Eph 4:4-6).how then do we know the truth about GOD or how to serve God in Truth, where do we get our authority from . Jesus said he is the truth (john 14:6)and that if we abide to his words we are in Truth and we are his people ( John 8:31,32). therefore only his teachings and doctrines can lead us into seeing the father. ( 2john 9). so here is my worry where do come from with all this our different styles of worshipping or giving honor to God some speak in "tongues" saying things they themselves do not understand, some make very loud noises with dancing and playing of music, some do not . amongst many other doctrines and teaching that exists in our churches today yet we all have same bible, different version but same story. so where are all this ideas coming from are they all in the Bible? is CHRISTMAS in the Bible? I mean being happy a savior was born is not a bad idea but who said he was born on the 25 December and that we should remember it and celebrate. I am not just against Christmas or other practices in our churches today I just want to look at their origins where do they come from? Do we just have to follow because that is what the world says or everyone is doing it let's do it? let's go back and trace the origin of some of our teachings, practices, feast in the church and find out if we are still in the teachings of Christ or the doctrine of men . until that is done our work is in vain.(Mark 7:6-9)
