Traditions of MEN, Conceits of SELF, or Commandments of GOD?

This generation of Believers has unfortunately been taught that escaping free from “traditions of men” means that we are supposed to come up with our own creative conceits and create ministry in our own image.

But the traditions of men are not supposed to be replaced with our own special ideas or our prideful independence – the traditions of men are supposed to be replaced by the COMMANDMENTS OF GOD.

Jesus never exalted Himself above the traditions of men, He only exalted THE COMMANDMENTS OF GOD:

Matthew 15:3
[3]But he answered and said unto them, Why do ye also transgress the COMMANDMENT OF GOD by YOUR TRADITION?

Mark 7:9
[9]And he said unto them, Full well ye reject the COMMANDMENT OF GOD, that ye may KEEP YOUR OWN TRADITION.

John 5:43
[43]I AM COME IN MY FATHER’S NAME, and ye receive me not: IF ANOTHER SHALL COME IN HIS OWN NAME, HIM YE WILL RECEIVE.

James 1:27
[27]PURE RELIGION and undefiled before God and the Father is this, To visit the fatherless and widows in their affliction, and to KEEP HIMSELF UNSPOTTED FROM THE WORLD.
