    Verse 7~Jehovah God provides for and blesses those who obey him.

    Deuteronomy 12:30-31 "...How did these nations serve their gods? even so will I do likewise. Thou shalt not do so unto the Lord thy God..."

    God said do not do as the heathen. These so called Christian holidays are ALL pagan in origin and true Christians do not celebrate them. It takes very little effort to discover where they came from.

    Verse 32: Jehovah God deserves and requires our complete and unconditional obedience.
  • April on 2 Samuel 5 - 7 years ago
    I use to wonder about concubines and the many wives then I thought about, Deuteronomy 12:15(KJV)Notwithstanding thou mayest kill and eat flesh in all thy gates,whatsoever thy soul lusteth after,according to the blessing of the LORD thy God which he hath given thee:the unclean and the clean may eat thereof,as of the roebuck and as of the hart.maybe it was ok for whoever he blesses kind of thing.

    April, You are correct. Read JEREMIAH 10:2-4. These verses cannot be any taken any other
    way. The LORD wants to be worshiped in Spirit

    Deuteronomy 16:21-Thou shalt NOT plant thee a grove of ANY TREES near unto the altar of the LORD thy GOD,which thou shall make thee. Christmas trees are of a peganism way,when we get the presents we are bowing down to the tree,even if in our hearts We aren't doing this exact thing,if you are to honor father then no tree of celebration is to be near unto him,decorating it,music about it sung.
  • Bruce on Deuteronomy 12 - 7 years ago
    April: I been to a few of these Churches,some for four years when you mention it they just say who are you holier than now. Some say your probably right, but we're gonna do it anyway,it's fun, the kids love it. I mentioned a Nativity scene would be better. They just looked at me. Some even have a Santa Claus and a bunny suit. The church I grew up in Hung witches in The Church at Halloween! I Left.

    Dr.Ford: I was wondering have you tried to speak to these people and shew onto them whatever is within your heart?I use To go to a Baptist Church,and currently found out Chrismas n Easter are filled with Peganism and other beliefs from other countries all tied into an image that so many people honestly think they are worshiping GOD,yet it is an ABOMINATION unto him,we're doing the exact opposite..
  • Peter A. Okebukola on Deuteronomy 12 - 7 years ago
    Still more injunctions by God to the Isarelites and a promise of a great future if they obey. It is a simple logic of trust (have faith and do His commands) and obey. Sadly, many shun to obey with its dire consequences. But our God is gracious and mighty to save if we genuinely repent.
  • JOAN on Deuteronomy 12 - 8 years ago
    WE MUST WORSHIP THE LORD IN TRUTH,FOLLOW THE WORD OF GOD IT IS THE ONLY THING THAT IS GOING TO LAST.YOU MONEY ISNT GOING TO LAST,YOUR HEALTH,YOUR JOB,YOUR HOME ALL OF THESE THINGS ARE MATERIAL,BUT THE WORD OF GOD IS ETERNITY!!!!!!!!
  • Angela on Deuteronomy 12 - 8 years ago
    Dr. Ford what exactly do you perceive to be the Will of Yahweh?!?
    I truly want to understand this scripture. I would sincerely appreciate dialogue! My questions are pubs the idolatry worship, worshipping the way they did their gods, and eating anything is permissible. I need to understand this please and thank you.
  • Quansto on Deuteronomy 12 - 8 years ago
    Dr Ford . What is the will of God in your eyes?
  • Stephen F. Zielski on Deuteronomy 12 - 8 years ago
    Rest assure and Trust in the Only Living God
  • Dr.Ford on Deuteronomy 12 - 8 years ago
    I have spent all of my life in Church, I've been a member of different denominations, and even nondenominational.
    I have yet to find a Church that is focused on the will of God. Most of the Churches are focused on money, celebrating days, Womens day, Brotherhood Sunday, Youth Sunday, Usher Sunday and Pastors Anniversary and no search for the will of God. My heart is broken.
  • Lu2677 on Matthew 15 - 8 years ago
    "Not adding man's traditions"; Jeremiah 10:3-4, 1 Timothy 4:1-3, Deuteronomy 12:4,29-32.
    God's thoughts are higher than our thoughts. Amen.
  • Dennis on Deuteronomy 12 - 10 years ago
    It is in this chapter where the REGULATIVE PRINCIPLE is taught. Only God Himself has the right to say how He is to be worshipped. Much of that which goes on in modern evangelicalism does not meet the criteria, is this biblical? If the church of the New Testament didn 't practice something neither should we. If they did, so should we. Our worship must be "regulated " by Scripture or it doesn 't please God. John 4 23 24

    Praying God to help me here in Germany.
  • Godwin Alims on Deuteronomy 12:14 - 12 years ago
    God has an appointed place of worship for you(every one of us). There, you are to worship, offer your sacrifices and receive instructions.
  • Bill on Deuteronomy 12:32 - 13 years ago
    are we doing this are we teaching our children are we making this the better than star wars, the jefferson's, the etc,,,, whats your idol?
    I am looking for a church because the last church wasn't doing this oh we need your money (which i had no problem giving) but don't make waves and always act like nothings wrong lets get home so we can check on the steelers or cowboys or? whats yours gods? are you reading a verse, chapter, memo or? can you catch the false gods in the vary act or are you a part of the scandal? will God come back and find you doing or will you be the door mat at the nearest bar? think about it dwell on it and live it, then when you come to church it wont be a social gathering only no you'll be searching out your neighbor.
  • Chris on Leviticus 17 - 13 years ago
    Jeff - Am I Catholic? No! I do not belong to any denomination, nor do I consider myself to be "Christian." I do believe in Christ, but I don't claim the title "Christian" for several reasons. Instead I just consider myself a believer.

    1st: The book of Revelation talks about "Mystery Babylon," where the false prophet will come from in the end days. We are told to flee her. She is also called the "Mother of Har lots." I believe, based on the description, that the Catholic Church is Mystery Babylon, and the denominations are her daughters. Flee the "churches."

    2nd: To be a "Christian" means to be "Christ-like." I mess up and sin everyday, despite knowing better. Not very "Christ-like." Also, if I'm "Christ-like" and sin everyday, then by default that makes Christ like me. That is just arrogant, blasphemous, and puts all of us in a lot of trouble if you know what I mean.

    Lastly: I know a lot of people are about to get really mad over this one, but what this world calls "Christianity" is false. When you think "Christianity" regardless of denomination, most people think: Christmas (birthday), Easter (death), 1st day Sabbath, Christ died on the 6th day and was resurrected on the 1st day, Christ came to bring peace to the planet, Christ had long hair, the "Laws of Moses" are done away with and now we only need love, the "Laws" were a curse, etc. None of these items are true, and the book tells you this. I want no part in this abomination.

    If the above offended you, or you doubt any of it, then please look into it. Research the pagan origins of "Christmas." It has nothing to do with Christ. Search: Yule, Roman Saturnalia, Druidic Winter Solstice, the birthday of every pagan SUN god ever know, among others. Jeremiah 10:2-5 talks about a "Christmas" tree, and was told not to do it. Deuteronomy 12:29-31 talks about not adopting pagan religious customs. Christ was born on the 1st day of the Feast of Tabernacles, not "Christmas."

    Christ died on Passover, not pagan Easter. Research it. The 3 symbols of this pagan day are: Easter eggs, chocolate bunnies, and peeps (baby ducks). What does this have to do with Christ being crucified? Nothing! But it does have to do with a certain pagan fertility goddess whose signs were: eggs (woman - fertility, you can do the math), rabbits (fertility - rabbits.. breeding...), and baby ducks (new life). If you are celebrating her special day, these symbols make a lot of sense. Even the name is named after her with a very slight twist.

    The 1st day Sabbath is a Catholic invention. It's not in the Scriptures. The Scriptures says to keep the 7th day Sabbath. Which is from sunset the night before to sunset the day of on our calendars. This is not the Jews Sabbath, it's His.

    The "churches" teach he died on the 6th evening and was resurrected the morning of the 1st day. Christ said he would be in the belly of the earth for 3 days and 3 nights. So mathematically what they teach is impossible. He did die in the evening, in a Biblical day - or around 3 p.m. He was resurrected on the 1st day - the night of (so the night prior on our calendar).
    Which means he died on the 4th day of the week just prior to sunset, and was resurrected just after sunset on the 1st day. 3 days and 3 nights ( 5th n/d, 6th n/d, 7th n/d).

    I already talked about the "Laws of Moses" in a previous post. Christ didn't come to bring peace on earth. Matthew 10:34-36 says in his own words that he didn't come to do that. The exact opposite in fact. The Antichrist comes claiming to be Christ and does that though... Nor did Christ have long hair. 1 Corinthians 11:14-15 says that if a man has long hair it's a shameful thing. So why would Christ do it? He didn't.

    There are so many other false teaching that the "churches" teach, regardless of denomination. I'm not trying to be mean or arrogant, or rude. They are teaching lies. They have taken everything the Scriptures says, and basically turned it upside down. It's wrong, and they are leading untold numbers into the Lake of Fire, and the people have no clue. The Scriptures says that many false prophets will go out among the people and deceive many. Read the book.
