CHAPITRE II
The one that does not know the Bible does not know God, Certainly, it is possible to be very educated without for all that knowing God. Reason is simple. If you do not read the book in which God showed himself in the humanity, you never can know God. Indeed, a lot of people well knows things but ignores the most important: the knowledge of God. It is a bad and unforgivable ignorance. " The Sky and the earth(ground) will pass " JESUS said " but my words will not pass ". " Remember that free the most philosophic, the most popular, the most eternal, it is the Holy Writing " - Victor Hugo. " The one that does not know the Bible does not know Jesus. The Jews were very religious, they believed to know God, but they delivered the son of God to the death on the cross. They were ignorant as for the Bible, they were not enough educated in the knowledge of Writings. It is for that reason that Pierre addressed to them: " You died the Prince of the life that God resuscitated deaths; we are witnesses of it. It is by the faith in the name that the name firmed up the one that you see and know; it is faith in him who all gave to this man this complete cure in the presence of you. And now, brothers, I know that you acted by ignorance as well as your Leaders. " Regret so and be converted so that your sins are erased, so that times of refreshment come on behalf of the Lord, and so that it(he) sends the one that was intended for you, JESUS CHRIST whom the Sky has to receive until the times of the restoring of any things God of which spoke at first by the mouth of the Holy Seers ". (Acts 3: 15-21). Erasme writes: " the most high purpose of the renewal of philosophic studies will be to learn to know simple and pure Christianity in the Bible. I am firmly resolved to die on the study of the Writing: in her(it) is my enjoyment and my peace ". The one that does not know the Bible can not know the plan of safety. " Christ's gospel is God's power for the safety of whoever believes ". (Rom. 1: 16). We can not trust the word of an individual or a group of individual; they can be in the error. The only way of knowing that we are not blind and that we do not follow blind guides, it is to make as Béréens which examined every day Writings, to see if what one said to them was exact (Acts 17: 11). Nobody can make him(it) for our place, it is a question of individual responsibility. " The Bible jumps up the head and the heart. It is the book of big social demands, seers announcing the brotherly equality of the people, the disarmament of calmed wolves " - Jean Jaurès. The Bible is so the universal book, the inexhaustible book, the book of life. It is the source of the spiritual light. " Your Word is a lamp in my feet and a light on my path " Psalmiste said (Ps 119: 105). The Bible is the foundation of the faith. If we do not listen to the Bible, we can not have faith. " So, faith comes from what one hears(understands), and what one hears(understands) comes from Christ's word " (Rom. 10: 17). The Bible is the base of our hope. " Because while by hoping we are saved. Now the hope which one sees is not any more hope: what one sees, can one still hope for him(it)? But if we hope for what we see it not, we wait for him(it) perseveringly " (Rom. 8: 24-25). The Bible will judge us. The only way of preparing us for God's judgment it is to study the Bible. She(it) will teach us God's will in what concerns us and in what concerns him(it). Jesus said: " You will know the truth and the truth will free(frank) you " (Jean 8: 32). " The Bible contains the Alpha and Oméga, principle and the end, it carries(wears) God's word which does not pass " - Roland of Valleys. So, Christianity Céleste makes his the preaching of God's word by the Bible and in the Bible and she invites everybody to approach the alive God by the knowledge of the Bible. Best way of verifying value and the truth of the Bible, is simply to read it, without prejudice, the opened heart.
Certainly! It is moreover the most simple book. One says quite rightly that it(he) is sublimely simple and simply sublimate. Is not need to be a doctor in Theology. The Bible is a book of a simple and clear literature where God showed himself to us. Now the revealed things are for us and in our child with eternity in called the Eternal (Deut. 29: 29). Because the revealed things are for us, why so let us not have to we appropriate it? One often hears: " The Bible is complicated, every verse contains a double sense(direction); it(he) is not allowed everybody to interpret him(it) ". Of which double sense(direction) and about which interpretation is it? There is not it in our knowledge. Let us take for example, a biblical passage and let us see if everybody can not understand(include) him(it). In Exodus reprimand three, verses one and two, we read: " Moses grazed the crowd of Jéthro his father-in-law, Sacrificer de Madian; and it(he) led the crowd behind the desert and comes to the mountain of God, to Horeb. The Angel of the Eternal appeared to him(her) in a flame of fire and the bush did not waste away ". Is there anything of more clearly and of more simple? Let us see another another passage in Marc's gospel, chapter 12, verses 18 - 25. " Sadducéens, which say that there is no resurrection, saw with Jesus, and made him(her) this question: Boss, here is what Moses prescribed us: " If the brother of somebody dies, and leaves a woman(wife), without children's resources, his brother will marry his widow, and will arouse an offspring to his brother. Now, there were seven brothers. The first got married, and died without leaving of offspring. It was it also of the third. And none of the seven left an offspring. After them all, the woman(wife) also. In the resurrection, of what of them will she be the woman(wife)? Because seven had her(it) for woman(wife) ". Jesus answered them: " Are not you in the error because you do not understand(include) either Writings, or God's power? Because, in the resurrection of the deaths, the people will not take any women, or the women of husbands, but they will be as angels in heavens ". We think that it is clear and it is necessary to understand(include) as tel. It is there about people who will not take any more women, or the women of husbands after the resurrection because they will be how Angels. But if we begin interpreting Writings in our way, sounding the secret things or speaking where the Bible remains silent, for example , to find that the burning bush was of shrubs and brambles, or that the angels are the same sex or without sex, then we shall begin preaching our opinion and not the Bible. Now Paul recommended to Timothée: word Preaches, insists in any occasion, favorable or not, starts again, censors, exhorts, with any sweetness and not educating! " Because will come a time when the people will not support(bear) healthy doctrine; but having the itch to hear(understand) things pleasant, they will give themselves doctors' crowd according to their own desires, will divert(hijack) the ear of the truth and will turn to fables. But you, be sober in all things, support(bear) sufferings, make the work of an evangelist, well fill(perform) your ministry " (II Timothée 4: 2-5). There is no question an accommodation or of re-joint. It is even defended(forbidden). " I declare to whoever hears(understands) the words of the prediction of this book: if somebody adds to it something. God will strike him(it) plagues described in this book; and if somebody deducts something from words of the book of this prediction, God will deduct his part of the tree of the life and the Holy City, described in this book " (Apocalypse 22: 18-22). The apostle Jean declares in substance " whoever goes farther and does not live(remain) in the doctrine of Christ has not God! The one that lives(remains) in this doctrine has the Father and the Son " ( II Jean 9 ). And now, can we understand(include) the Bible in the same way? Certainly, if we abandon the re-accommodage, if we do not try to make hypotheses. Yes, dear brothers, we shall understand(include) her(it) and she(it) will understand(include) us. " It is the book which dried most tears, lit(enlightened) most consciousness, calmed most remorse, regenerated most character " - Charles Sécrétan, Swiss Philosopher.
That is why we preach the resuscitated Christ. All the human beings are imperfect and nothing of what is human is perfect. When we try to like according to human principles our cult is vain. " It is in vain that they honor me by teaching rules which are commands of people " (Checkmate. 15: 9). Jacques Lefèvre d' Estaphes exclaimed one day: " time will come soon when Christ will be preached purely and without mixture of human traditions: O Evangile! Fountain of the water which springs alive eternal, when do you règneras in all your purity? When will Christ all be quite there? The Church of the Christ, governed by the Christ, behaviour(canal) by the Holy Spirit is built on a perfect and solid foundation. Do not you think that God effectively gave to the government of his Church all the necessary and sufficient(self-important) elements? " And God established in the Church in the first place Apostles, secondarily Seers, thirdly Doctors, then those that have the gift(donation) of miracles, then those that have the gifts(donations) to be cured, to help, to steer, to speak about different languages " (I Corinthiens 12: 28). So Christianity Céleste walks(works) in the way of predictions Some wonder that one speaks still about Predictions or about dreamers in full 20-th century. Some claim that it is of the spiritualism or the magic. The most extravagant speak about fetishism or about mysticism. Now, it is simply the demonstration of the Holy Spirit in the middle of the Church of the Christ. Prediction is one of the gifts(donations) of the Holy Spirit distributed according to its will. Seer is not who wants! Let us see in the light of Writings if this gift(donation) stayed only at the stage of the Pentecost as some estimate(esteem) it or if it is inherent to the life of any Church referring sincerely to the Christ. In Saint Paul's letter to the Corinthians reprimands 12, verse 7 - 11, so well after the Pentecost, we read: " Now, in each the demonstration of the Spirit is given for the common utility, indeed , in the one is given by the Spirit a word of wisdom, to one the other one a word of knowledge according to the same Spirit; In the other one faith by the same Spirit, in the other one, the gift(donation) of cures by the same Spirit, in the other one gift(donation) to operate for miracles, in the other one, prediction, in the other one difference of spirits; in the other one, the variety of languages; in the other one the interpretation of languages; the same Spirit operates all these things, distributing them in each in particular as it wants ". The same Paul writes somewhere else: " Look for charity; inhale(suck up) also for spiritual gifts(donations), but especially for that of prediction. The one that augurs speaks to the people, builds them, exhorts them, console. The one that speaks in language is built, the one himself that augurs builds the Church " (Corn. 14: 1-4). Even farther, he writes: " Consequently, languages are a sign, not for the believers, but for the unbelievers; prediction on the contrary, is a sign, not for the unbelievers, but for the believers. If so in an assembly of the complete Church, all speak in languages, and if they arise people of the people or the unbelievers, will not they say that you are mad? But if all augur and if it(he) arises some unbeliever or a man of the people, it(he) is convinced by all, he is judged by all, the secrets of the heart are revealed, so that, falling on his face, he will like God and will publish that God is really in the middle of you " (I Cor. 14: 22-25). Also in Ephésiens reprimands 4 verse 10 - 15, wrote Paul; " The one that came down(fell), it is the same which rose over all the heavens, to fill(perform) any things. And it(he) gave some as Apostles, the others as seers, the others as evangelists, the others as Ministers and doctors, for the perfection of the saints with the aim of the work of the ministry and the construction of the body of Christ, until we all reached the unity of the faith of the knowledge of the son of God, Man's state made for the measure of the Christ's perfect Stature, so that we are more children of it, floating and taken in any wind of doctrine by the deceit of people, by their guiles in the means of seduction, but than, professing the truth in the charity, we grew in all respects in the one that is the Leader, the Christ ". This does without comment because letters speak about themselves. Moreover a writer wrote with good reason: " the best means to escape a danger, it is to know him(it) ". Dear brothers, why do you stay so aside to judge? Why so to blaspheme against the Holy Spirit? Why would you like consulting the soothsayers, the quacks, the mediums, when God is allowed consult? " Look for the Eternal while it is. Call upon him(it) whereas it(he) is near. That the miserable abandons its way and the man of injustice its thoughts; that it(he) turns(returns) to the Eternal which will feel sorry for him, to our God, which does not grow tired of forgiving " (Esaïe 55: 6-7). " Today, if you hear(understand) the voice(vote), do not harden your hearts " (Héb. 4: 7).
Indeed, the order of Jesus Christ to the apostles is formal: " Go, preach and say: celestial kingdom is close; cure the patients, resuscitate the deaths, cleanse the lepers, hunt(chase away) the devils, you with receipt free, give free " (Checkmate. 10: 7-8). And we read also in Marc, chapter 16, verse 17 - 18: " Here are the miracles which will accompany those that will have believed: in my name, they will hunt(chase away) the devils, they will speak about new languages, they will seize snakes; if they drink some mortal breuvage, it(he) will not make them any evil; They will impose hands on the patients and the patients will be cured ". It(he) is so certain that this order did not limit itself only to the apostles, but to all what will believe in the Gospel of the Lord. So, according to the order which we received during our vision, we also preach word and we cure the patients in the name of Jesus Christ by imposing them hands. Certainly, we do not glory to be divine quacks. Far from us this idea, but we are cured in the name of JESUS CHRIST. And it is moreover the gift(donation) which is granted(tuned) to all the former(ancient) of the Church of the Christ. Let us listen to Saint Jacques, put in it a divine seal: " Is anybody among you in the suffering? That it(he) asks. Is anybody in the enjoyment? That it(he) sings chants. Is anybody among you a patient? That he calls the former(ancient) of the Church, and that the former(ancient) ask for by anointing him(it) of oil in the name of the Lord: the prayer of the faith will save the patient, and the Lord will raise(find) it; and if it(he) committed sins it(he) will be forgiven him(her) " (Jacques 5: 13-15). Is there cure? Let us listen to some extracts of the address pronounced on June 7, 1970 in front of several guests of mark(brand) and numerous brothers in Christ come from all the edges by Sénior Leader S . OLUBI during an anniversary of our parish from Akpakpa-centre to Cotonou. " There are many those which(who,whoever) wonder " and will wonder for a long time about our Congregation which exceeded the stage(stadium) of sect to become a true religion. " For some, our religion is anarchists' aggregate in bad of miracles; for the others, it is the Club of magicians, magicians, charmers and visionaries crossed(spent) bosses in impostures; the least evil speak about renegades or about apostates ". " We are neither renegades, nor apostates, nor visionaries, nor magicians, nor magicians, nor cheats; we have the honor to be Christians tired to resort to extra-Christian practices to face satan and the suppôts ". And the Senior Leader to continue: " Before our conversion in the Christianity Céleste, we were of those that although Christians followers return in case of difficulties to the orgy, that is, is at the quack's, at the big marabout or the magician of the district to help us to go out of our difficulties. These swindlers who live at the cost of our lack of faith in our creator, imposed us any sorts of humiliations on the feet of their idols. Now nobody can serve two bosses at the same moment. We can not honestly refer Christians and prostrate themselves before the idols. This practice is formally condemned by the Christ ". Then honorable Leader to add: " In spite of attacks, insults, mockeries and mockeries variously (the Christ passed by the same melting pot) we are very proud to belong to the Christianity Céleste who changed everything in us ". " Finished so this panic fear of the satanic influence; finished the business with the quacks, finished the traffic of chickens, sheeps which manure in our expense these cheats of quacks and magicians. Finished the maraboutage and the amulets ". " All that we ask for, it is the right for the existence as well as the freedom to let with us like our God according to our consciousness. Because we prefer to obey him(her) that to look for the favour of the people ". All this do without comment. Yes, there is cure and we glory in Jesus who grants(tunes) him(it) irrespective of anybody. However, Christianity Céleste does not substitute itself for hospitals and we do not prevent the patients from going to consult the doctors of whom we recognize efficiency. Nevertheless, we carried out also our mission and can not refuse to the destitute the profit of a gift(donation) free received from God. We received free, and we give him(it) free. We invite you all so: " You what are thirsty, come in waters, even the one that has no money(silver), come, buy and eat, come buy some wine and some milk, without money(silver), without paying anything. Yes, you will go out with enjoyment, and you will be led(driven) in peace: mountains and hills will burst of enjoyment in front of you, and all the trees of the campaign will beat hands " (Esaïe 55: 1 and 12).
Indeed, to enter this Church, there is a perfect law. The Leader of the Church says: " The one that will believe and that will be baptized will be saved, the one that will not believe will be condemned " (Marc 16: 16). Jesus says still : " Go, summits of all the nations of the followers, baptizing them in the name of the Father, of the Son and the Holy Spirit ". (Mathieu 28: 18). How do we proceed to this baptism so formally ordered by Jesus Christ? Is it by spraying or by dumping? We will be enough to put in evidence biblical requirements for the baptism to see clearly how practising him(it). [ZQYW1PÚ] Biblical baptism requires(demands) the water: " Then Pierre says: Can one refuse the water of baptism to those who received Holy Spirit as well as us? (Acts 10: 47). [ZQYW1PÚ] Biblical baptism requires(demands) a lot of water: " Jean also baptized to Enon, near Salim, because there was there a lot of water, and one came there to be baptized " (Jean 3: 33). [ZQYW1PÚ] Biblical baptism requires(demands) a descent in the water: " It(he) stopped(arrested) the tank; Philippe and the Eunuch lowered(went down) both in the water and Philippe baptized the Eunuch " (acts 8: 38). [ZQYW1PÚ] Biblical baptism requires(demands) an exit of the water: " As soon as Jesus had been baptized, it(he) went out of some water. And Here we are, heavens opened and it(he) lives the Spirit of God come down(fall) as a Dove and to come on him " (Math. 3: 16). " When they had gone out of some water, the Spirit of the Lord removed Philippe, and the Eunuch does not live him(it) any more " (Acts 8: 39). [ZQYW1PÚ] Biblical baptism requires(demands) a burial. " You Ignore that we what were baptized in Jesus Christ, it is in the death that we were baptized! We were so buried with him by the baptism in the death, so that, as Christ is resuscitated by the deaths by the glory of the Father also we also walk(work) in novelty of life " (Rom. 6: 3-4). [ZQYW1PÚ] Biblical baptism requires(demands) a resurrection. " Indeed, if we became the same plant with him by the correspondence to the death, we him(it,her) will be also by her(it) confirmed in the resurrection. Knowing that our old man was crucified with him, so that the body of the sin was destroyed(annulled), so that we are not any more slaves of the sin " (Rom. 6: 5-6). " Having been buried with him by the baptism, you are also resuscitated in him and with him, by the faith in God's power, which(who,whoever) him(her,it) resuscitated deaths " (Colossiens 2: 12). SPRAYING DOES NOT SO AGREE WITH THE BIBLICAL IMAGE OF the BAPTISM, THAT IS WHY WE MAKE BAPTISM BY DUMPING. We baptized so our believers(regular customers) in the water, by immersing them in the water and them by appearing from some water. They are so buried with Christ by the baptism and resuscitated with him by the faith in God's power which resuscitated Christ of the deaths. If you wish to receive the forgiveness of your sins, to be washed by your sins, to dress(take on) the Christ, to be saved, it is necessary for you as a penitent believer to be buried with Christ in the waters of the baptism. Dear brothers, allow us to encourage you: " And now do you delay? Raise you, be baptized and washed by your sins, by calling upon the name of the Lord " (Acts 22: 16). But do not make a mistake there. Before receiving baptism, it is necessary to accept Christ. Indeed, the one that is converted fact a confession of very pure and very simple faith. This confession is identical to this one (Acts 8: 37): " Philippe says: if you believe of all your heart, it is possible. The Eunuch answered: I believe that JESUS CHRIST is the son of God. It is evident that without the faith in Christ, the baptism in the name of Jesus not in any value ". And if you accept Christ, it is necessary to make short table of past. It is necessary for you you deprive of your ancient(former) life to appear from some water as by a resurrection with the Christ in novelty of life. So, we teach Christian holiness: " That any bitterness, any hostility, any anger, any clamour, any slander and any sort of wickedness disappear of the environment(middle) of you. Be good the ones to the others, compassionate, forgiving for you mutually, as God forgave for you in Christ " (Ephésiens 4: 31-32). We ask those that possess it to throw(cast) their grigris or idols. " Because, well know him(it), any(no) unchaste, either impure, or grasping, that is worships, has of inheritance in the realm of Christ and of God " (Ephésiens 5: 5). " Formerly you were darkness, and now you are lights in the Lord. Walk(work) how children of lights! Because the fruit of the light consists there every sort of kindness, justice and the truth ". " Examine what is pleasant to the Lord; and do not take part in the fruitless works of darkness; but rather condemn them. Because it is shameful to say what they make in secret; but all which is condemned is shown by the light, because all which is shown is light " (Ephésiens 5: 8-13). We ask our believers(regular customers) to refrain from drinks enivrantes and from some tobacco. " That is why be not mindless, but understand(include) which is the will of the Lord ". " Do not get drunk on wine: it is the debauchery. Be on the contrary, filled(performed) with the Spirit " (Ephésiens 5: 17-18). " It is enough, indeed , to have in carried out past the will of the heathen, by walking(working) in the dissolution, the greeds, the drunkenness, the excesses of to eat and of to drink, and criminal idolizations " (I Pierre 4: 3). Here we are, brothers, days are very difficult, it is a time when it is necessary to put more than ever our confidence and our hope in God, at the risk of sinking into the despair and the dejection of the world without God. What to make? It is the question that put, frightened, to Pierre, Whitsunday, the people come from any nations in Jerusalem: " That is it necessary that we do? " . " Regret ", it(he) ordered them " and that each of you is baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins and you will receive the gift(donation) of the Holy Spirit because promise is for you, for your children and for all what are far off, in as big number as the Lord our God will call them " (Acts 2: 37-39). Certainly, it is difficult to go away from his first religious education, even though this education is erroneous. But when one saw and understood the error, it is necessary to change immediately. We have to abandon error as soon as we notice it. Indeed, Paul, the big Clergyman of the world had asked us to be his imitator. " Be all my imitators, brothers, and concern glances those that walk(work) according to the model which you have in us " (Phil. 3: 17). " Be my imitators, as I am one myself of Christ " (Corn. 11: 1). Obviously Paul excelled of zeal for the Judaism. " For me he said, I had believed to have to act strongly against Jesus de Nazareth's name. It is that I made in Jerusalem. I threw(cast) in prison several saints, having received this power of the main sacrificers and, when one put to death them, I joined my vote to that of the others. I often chastised them in all the synagogues, and forced them to blaspheme. In my excesses of fury against them, I even persecuted them to the foreign cities " (Acts 26: 9-11). But, when Paul knew the truth, it(he) changed immediately. It(he) did not consult either the flesh or the blood. It(he) had no hesitance. It(he) was baptized immediately. He abandoned so the religion of his fathers and undertook of himself(itself) in the Christian religion. It is necessary to live in any good consciousness in front of God. We must be raised(brought up) in the knowledge of Writings. " It is God's power for the safety of whoever believes " (Rom. 1: 16).
So that a cult is pleasant to God, two elements are essential. Jesus himself exposes(explains) them in Jean reprimands 4, verse 24. " God is Spirit; and it is necessary that those that like him(it), like him(it) in spirit and really ". So, it is in the community of heart, united in the same spirit and in the same feeling that we like the Lord. To be more simple and to move closer us to the state for which we hope, before entering the God's house, we put a dress of prayer. She(it) is in white cloth(canvas). " After that I looked, and Here we are, there was a big crowd, that nobody could count, of any nation, any tribe, every people, and any language. They held in front of the throne and the lamb dressed(taken on) in white dresses, and in palms in their hands " (Apoc. 7: 9). [ZQYW1PÚ] Besides the dress of prayer, the women carry(wear)
a headgear of the same cloth(canvas). " I want, however, that you
know that Christ is the Leader of every man, that the man is the leader
of the woman(wife), and that God is the Leader of Christ. Every man
who magpie or augurs, the head [ZQYW1PÚ] Also, before entering the house of the Eternal, we remove our shoes. " God says to Moses: do not approach from here, remove your shoes of your feet, because the place on which you hold is a holy earth(ground) " (Exodus 3: 5). Our cult of worship consists in praying, in reading Psalms, and in singing spiritual chants. " Speak by Psalms, by hymns and by spiritual, singing chants and celebrant of all your heart the praises of the Lord. Return constantly graces(favours) for any things to God the Father, in the name of our Lord JESUS CHRIST, subjecting you some to the others in the fear of Christ " (Ephésiens 5: 19-20). [ZQYW1PÚ] Then, we preach God's word in the Bible. " That Christ's word lives among you abundantly; educate yourselves and you exhort some the others it any wisdom by Psalms, by hymns, by spiritual chants, singing to God in your hearts under the inspiration of the grace(favour). And although you do, in word or in work, make everything in the name of the Lord Jesus, by returning by him actions of graces(favours) to God the Father ". [ZQYW1PÚ] Then we break the bread. Indeed, the meal of the Lord is a part integral of the Christian cult. It(he) allows us to obey our Lord. " Then, it(he) took some bread; and, having returned graces(favours), it(he) broke him(it) and gave to them, by saying: this is my body, which is given for you; make this in memory of me. It(he) took also the cup(cutting), after the supper and gave it to them, by saying: this cup(cutting) are new alliance in my blood, which is wide-spread louse you " (Luc 22: 19-20). In spite of, the distribution of the meal of the Lord is not left to the advantage of everybody. She(it) is the object of attributions of the Ministers and Evangelists. Later, she(it) will extend to the Leaders that is the responsibles for the Assemblies of the Church. [ZQYW1PÚ] Finally we make collection to allow the Christians to give according to their means. Offering also is a part integral of the Christian Cult. Indeed, the first Christians gave generously. " As regards the collection in favour of the saints, act you also, as I ordered him(it) the Churches of Galatie. That each of you, the first day of the week, sets apart at him whom it(he) will be able to, according to the prosperity, so that one does not wait for my arrival to collect gifts(donations) " (I Cor. 16: 1-2). " As well as you excel in all things, at faith, at words, at knowledge, at zeal in all respects, and in your love for us, see to it to excel also at this charity. I do not say it to give an order, but to try(feel), by the zeal of the others, the sincerity of your charity " (II Corn. 8: 7-8). So cult is ended and we are engaged if need be in festivities in front of God. This rejoicing which makes in the middle of songs, of music and dance, comes along with gifts(donations) of thanks. Indeed, some among us give evidence publicly of benefactions of the Lord in their respect, that it is about recovered health, about acquired tangible assets or about obtained spiritual gifts(donations). " Just men, be delighted in the Eternal! Praise becomes to the right(straight) people. Celebrate - the Eternal with the harp, celebrate him(it) on the lute in ten ropes. Sing him(her) a new chant, ring your instruments and your voices(votes) " (Ps. 33: 1-3).
Marriage ( 1 ) is a civil and religious institution serving of organ of peace and civilization in the families and the nation. Nevertheless, the neglect does not have to prevent the people from liking God. Because the Good God does not make meaning of a word of persons.
Yes, it seems that we offend dangerously God WHO DOES NOT OBLIGE US TO MAKE IN FRONT OF HIM A WISH but who jealously takes into account it since ourselves we engage(open) us deliberately. " If you refrain from making a wish, you will not commit a sin. But you will observe and you will carry out what will go out of your lips, consequently the wishes that you will make VOLONTAIREMNT in Eternal your God and that your mouth will have pronounced " (Deut. 23: 22-23). This church wedding which we established addresses all the members of willingness capable of holding their wish because the Eternal said: " When a man or a woman(wife) will make a wish for the Eternal or an oath to be bound by a commitment, he will not violate his word, it(he) will act according to all which went out of the mouth " (Count 30: 3). It is so why we like to what any member of the Christianity Céleste who, of deliberated comment, opting for this sacrament contracts a marriage in front of the Eternal, respects its commitment at the risk of being excluded (2).
This is not a sacrament but an active solidarity between the members of the same family. In spite of, we are anxious to clear up public opinion on this state of affairs. Indeed, some, and it is maybe their way of compromising our religion, or their way of fighting against us, say that we abandon our deaths or rather than we reserve them only burial deserving of dogs. They are only persifleurs. We assert without fear to be denied(contradicted), that since about 25 years when our religion was born, we have not some more known seven deathes in our rows(ranks). Those and certainly their family will give evidence of it, were with dignity buried. Nevertheless, we remind spirits ill-intentioned that certain patients are steered in extremis in a critical and desperate state, towards our churches in the hope of a possible supernatural cure. In the death of those that do not moreover content themselves with our only prayers and recommendations (they continue in secret to resort to the occult things of their faith) we do not take charge, it goes without saying , of their burial for the simple reason that they do not belong to our religion, and their bodies, if need be, are put back(handed) to their family. It is important to remind in this particular case that it is not we which(who) cure but God in not of his son Jesus Christ by our intermediary. And God is free to be cured whom he wants! We think of having explained with force details without trying to paraphrase the Bible but by pressing us on the authentic texts, all the foundation of our ministry. " Obedience is better that sacrifices, and the observation of the word is better that the fat of rams " in called Samuel to the king Saul. Such is the prize which we received due to the Eternal to progress Christianity Céleste in the world, to begin with our African brothers. Shall we succeed? The future will prove him(it). " We made known you, O man what is well and what the Eternal asks for of you, it is that you practise justice, that you love mercy, and that you walk(work) humbly with your God " (Michée 6: 8). It is also the shout of reunification that you heard(understood), a pressing appeal for Christ's name, for Christ's authority, for Christ's purity, and of the Church. Dear reader, if you are not Christian, tries, try hard to become him(it,her): have faith in Jesus Christ, bet that Christ exists! Accept and receive baptism in Christ for the forgiveness of your sins. If you are Christian that God helps you to live(remain) him(it,her) by your fervour and your allegiance in the love and the worship of the Christ.
