Parents teach their children in what they ought to do and expect obedience. As our loving Father, God does the same. When we fail to do what He has commanded, we sin--
     Wives submit to your husbands, husbands love your wives (Ephesians 5:22,25).
     Bishop (pastor) must be the husband of one wife (1 Timothy 3:2, 4-5).
     Evangelists are to preach the word (2 Timothy 4:2). Some “preaching” barely refers to Scripture, but is full of jokes and stories. What is preached—God’s word or man’s?
     No divisions, speak the same thing everywhere in every church (1 Corinthians 1:10; 4:17). This challenge is made more difficult when men celebrate the diverse teachings and practices of different religious groups.
     Practice and teach faith, repentance, confession, and baptism for the remission of sins (Mark 16:16; Romans 10:10; Acts 2:38).    
     Sometimes, man sins because of weakness, but sometimes sin is openly taught and practiced by a church who does not do what God has commanded. Does it matter to you?
