MARITAL COURT CASES ARE SIGNS OF COMPLETE FAILURE IN THE CHURCHES. Ignorance of the Godly Principles of Marriage Leads to Foolish Judgments! The Bible Speaks to Your Shame! (1Cor 6:1-8)

If a Church does not understand the Godly principles of Marriage, she would not be able to judge righteously. Her judgment will be perverted to the point that she would file court cases before the worldly legal systems, and allow these unrighteous justice systems of the world to provide judgments to settle conflicts between husbands and wives, and family members of their Church, in violation of the scriptures in 1 Corinthians 1-8.

The BRIDE OF CHRIST MINISTRY OF LIFE

All the churches in the world, continue to miss the all-important doctrine and understanding that could change everything! And that missing all-important doctrine is the true doctrine and principles of marriage!

• Do any of you dare, when you have a matter against another, to go to law before the unjust, and not before the saints? (1Cor 6:1 MKJV)

• ... For I speak to your shame. Is it so that there is not a wise one among you, not even one in your midst who shall be able to judge between his brother? But brother goes to law with brother, and that before the unbelievers. (1Cor 6:4-6 MKJV)

• ...there is already on the whole a failure among you, that you have lawsuits with yourselves.

• Why not instead be wronged? Why not instead be defrauded? But you do wrong and defraud, and these things to brothers. (1Cor 6:7-8 MKJV)

• Do you not know that the saints shall judge the world? And if the world shall be judged by you, are you unworthy to judge the smallest matters? Do you not know that we shall judge angels, not to mention the things of this life? (1Cor 6:2-3 MKJV)

A PAINFUL PERSONAL EXPERIENCE OF THIS FAILURE OF THE CHURCHES

I was baptized in the Worldwide Church of God (WCG), as founded by the late Herbert W. Armstrong (HWA). When HWA died, the WCG was destroyed because of the marriage and family problems that engulfed the whole Church. The Philadelphia Church of God (PCG) became one of those "splinter groups" that emerged out of the now "changed" WCG. These two Churches, formerly in unity, were engaged in the legal battle (court case) about the copyright of Mr. Armstrong's book "Mystery of the Ages." Before this court case, there were also court battles between husbands and wives in the Churches. These include court legal battles between husbands and wives involving the top evangelists and the lay membership.

I myself was a victim of this foolish and shameful failure of the Churches. The Philadelphia Church of God (PCG) also caused and initiated a court case between my own family. In the process of several court hearings, two members of the PCG, who happened to be my best friends, betrayed me by acting as witnesses against me. They concocted lies and falsehood just to make me appear guilty in the eyes of the worldly justice system! Then prophecies were fulfilled:

• You will even be betrayed by parents, brothers, relatives, and friends... (Luke 21:16)

• ... they shall lay their hands on you and persecute you, delivering you up to the synagogues and prisons, being brought before kings and rulers for My name's sake. (Luke 21:12 MKJV)

IGNORANT CHRISTIANS, THINKING THAT THEY ARE TRUE CHRISTIANS, WILL PERSECUTE THE GENUINE CHRISTIANS!

So, the so-called "true Christians," members of the so-called "true church," the PCG Ministry, my wife, and best friends joined forces to accuse and convict me of their allegations, in front of the worldly and unrighteous Gentile courts! And this action of them is in direct affront and rebellion against GOD'S Words! The Churches would even disfellowship the saints thinking that they are serving God in doing this!

How can people calling themselves "true Christians," members of the "true Church," doing "God's Work" do such shameful and foolish things? The deception is truly a wonder and mystery to me!

Why this enigma? How can this be explained?

BECAUSE THEY HAVE NOT KNOWN THE FATHER, NOR CHRIST!

John 16:2-3 explain the whole thing. Here Christ said:

• They shall put you out of the synagogue. But an hour is coming that everyone who KILLS YOU will think that he bears God service. (John 16:2)

The word KILL is from the Greek Apokteino, which means to destroy or separate.

• And they will do these things to you because they have not known the Father nor Me. (John 16:3 MKJV)

Christians and Churches may argue, "We know Christ and the Father..."

So, they think and assume, and they may even preach Christ. But if they don't know the divine principles of marriage as God and Christ know it, then they still don't know the Father and Christ. And if they don't really know the Father and Christ, then it means they are preaching another Jesus and a different Gospel, resulting in a different spirit!

CHURCHES ARE PREACHING "ANOTHER" JESUS, AND "ANOTHER" GOSPEL!

• For if a person comes and preaches another Jesus, whom we did not preach, or you receive a different spirit, which you had not received, or a different gospel, which you had not accepted, you put up with it splendidly! (2Co 11:4)

The different spirit is the spirit of deception that deceived many Christians and churches today, causing them to persecute those true Christians and Jews who really know the Father and Christ! This is what happened in the Inquisition and the Holocaust.

AS THE SERPENT DECEIVED EVE, SO THE SERPENT IS DECEIVING THE CHURCHES AND BILLIONS OF CHRISTIANS AND RELIGIOUS PEOPLE TODAY!

• I fear that, as the serpent deceived Eve by his cunning, your minds may be corrupted from a complete and pure devotion to Christ. (2Co 11:3)

The above scriptures show us that when Eve was deceived by the Serpent, and Adam followed through, the true and pure knowledge about Christ and the Father was lost! And these include the true and pure knowledge about marriage and family!

And the deceived Churches with their leadership and membership, will continue to persecute God's faithful people, as they wax worse and worse into the depths of Satanic deception! Look at today's Christian churches; many of them have already approved abortion and same-sex marriages!

DO SOMETHING TO CORRECT THE SHAMEFUL FAILURE, BEFORE IT IS TOO LATE!

The ignorance of the Christians and the Jews about God the Father and Jesus Christ is a very serious thing for them. This is because their salvation and eternal life are at stake!

• This is eternal life: that they may know You, the only true God, and the One You have sent--Jesus Christ. (John 17:3)

Any Church or religious group that still have court cases among their membership and ministry is a sure sign that they are complete failure in their religion, fellowship, and worship of the true Jesus Christ! They are still ignorant of the "WILL OF THE FATHER."

Unless they recognize this failure, repent, and do something to correct the failure, they are in the great risk of losing their salvation. They will be classified under the group that think they are already saved, but they will be shocked when Christ rejects them, losing their salvation!


The GREATEST SURPRISE AND SHOCK THAT COULD HAPPEN TO A CHRISTIAN OR JEW

Because They Have Not Known the FATHER and CHRIST, the FATHER AND CHRIST Have Not Known Them Also! 

• On that day many will say to Me, 'Lord, Lord, didn't we prophesy in Your name, drive out demons in Your name, and do many miracles in Your name?' Then I will announce to them, 'I never knew you! Depart from Me, you Lawbreakers! (Mat 7:22-23)

Therefore take the talent from him and give it to him who has ten talents. For to everyone who has, more shall be given, and he will abound. But from him who has not, even that which he has shall be taken away from him. (Mat 25:28-29 MKJV)

And throw the unprofitable servant into outer darkness; there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth. (Mat 25:30 MKJV)

What a terrible ending for the deceived religious people! Make sure that you are not one of them!
