So Jesus indeed Rebuked and we are also called to Rebuke, Brother. Good. So we do it. Because in it is the Power of God to restore. And not in threatening and banning as the "
Babies of God" in carnality do. As we see normally happens in church organizations and organized church forums. Where humans
rule with their laws and
God with His Wisdom in Rebuking is "kicked out". And those in laws tries their best to keep them because
they enjoy their "exalted position". Of being
a "Rabbi".
I would offer a person cannot go around rebuking others in a hope of being banned to prove as it seems their own self righteousness. Like that of Aarons two sons that added to sola scriptura violating the law not to add or subtract. . called strange fire.
Believer's, apostles, prophets declare the will of our invisible Holy Father they can preach. God who is not served by human hands as a will. . not seen. . . alone does the rebuking and teaching. He will not share his glory with dying mankind
Jesus the apostle was given words from his Father. The Father rebuked the apostles. hiding the spiritual gospel understanding from the lost
The faithless apostles having no understanding from the parables tried to rebuke Jesus the Son of man as if he was useless and they tried to elect a new Alpha Dog.
Without parables Christ spoke not.
Luke 9:41-43;And
Jesus (Son of man) answering said, O
faithless and perverse generation, how long shall I be with you, and suffer you? Bring thy son hither.And as he was yet a coming, the devil threw him down, and tare him. And
Jesus (given words from the Father)
rebuked the unclean spirit, and healed the child, and delivered him again to
his father.;And they were all amazed at the
mighty power of
God. (no power of the Son of man Jesus) But while they
wondered every one at all things which Jesus did, he said unto his disciples,; Let these sayings sink down into your ears: for the Son of man shall be delivered into the hands of men ;But t
hey understood not this saying, and it was
hid from
them, that
they perceived it not: and they feared to ask him of that saying.Then there arose
a reasoning among them, which of
them should be
greatest.
The greatest. . . the one the
Holy Father with
power to
rebuke
Remember the apostles were still under a law of the fathers . .Pharisees with Sadducees, oral traditions of dying mankind.
They made Jesus the Son of man into a circus seal . . Work some magic perform a miracle them when we see with our own eye then we will believe what we see.
No
faith as
it is
written (sola scriptura)
John 4:48 Then said
Jesus unto him, Except
ye see
signs and
wonders, ye will not
believe.
John 6:30 They said therefore unto
him, What
sign shewest thou then, that
we may see, and
believe thee? what dost
thou work?
Believers have no
power of their own to rebuke .That treasure belongs to our
Holy Father in heaven ,. . .not of
dying mankind
2 Corinthians 4:7 But
we have this
treasure in
earthen vessels, that the
excellency of the
power may be
of God, and
not of us.
