APOSTASY

Apostasy: abandonment of religious faith, vows, principles or party

Gk. Aposta: to withdraw.[1]

But in vain do they worship me, teaching for doctrines the commandments of men Mat.15:9.

Ye worship ye know not what Jn. 4:22.

And they worshipped the dragon who gave power unto the beast; and they worshipped the beast Rev.13:4.

GOD is talking to church people, not heathens, nor those of the world. Scripture clearly defines those who are children of the devil, who are not interested in worshipping anything other than trinkets, lusts of this world; as these have no place in them to receive the Word of GOD. Oh generation of vipers, how can ye, being evil, speak good things? Mat.12:34; and even the most religious people are found to have missed the mark of the high calling, as demonstrated by the Pharisees and Sadducees who were witnesses to, the authors of His murder. I know ye are Abraham's seed, but ye seek to kill me, BECAUSE MY WORD hath NO PLACE in you. Jn.8:37 (Note the religious hierarchies of this day, no difference!) Heb.13:8 seeing they crucify unto themselves the Son of GOD afresh, and put Him to an open shame. Heb.6:6

The Lord plainly told them ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. Jn.8:44

Jesus, the Messiah, came to earth to pay the price for sin, unbelief, Heb.3:19, and to redeem HIS people. He did not come to redeem the children of the devil, Mt.13:38, only those the Father has given Him. Jn. 17:9.

There is little doubt many who make up the laity, in today's religious communities, are living in an apostate condition, because they know not GOD and worship their church, their denomination INSTEAD of the Son of GOD.

The last Biblical church age for the Gentiles is the Laodicean age. Rev.3:14

Laodicea means 'to conquer the laity' and aptly exposes a gulf between those claiming to serve GOD; the priests, popes, bishops, general overseers, pastors and their victims, the sincere GOD seeking people trapped in religious organizations.

This is not necessarily because those claiming to follow or believe in the Christian faith have rejected its teachings, or are not sincere in their pursuit of a relationship with the GOD revealed through the Bible. The problem is that religion has replaced GOD'S Word with Satanic interpretations, perversions, additions and subtractions
