Day 3 Mass Indoctrination Hold on 12 January 2022, Via Zoom Meeting

Good evening brethrens, may the Lord be with us all.

What I learnt today from the Mass Indoctrination.

Brother Eli talked about false Prophets who claim to teach the ways of Christ but in a wrong way. He said that we should listen to only the teachings of Christ as it is in the bible,
1 John 4:1 and 2 Peter 2:1 He also said that the bible is the standard and we should accept what is written in bible. He also explained why he makes comparison when teaching the doctrines using Ecclesiastes 7:27.

Brother Eli stated that many prayers done these days are show off.

This warns us not to pray like the heathens or hypocrites who prays so loud. according to the bible, such people have already received their rewards. So when we pray, we are to enter our closet, lock the door and prayer to our Lord in private and the Lord in return will reward us openly.
Brother Eli also said prayer is a private matter between us and God.
that kneeling down is important when we pray. kneeling should be horizontally, kneeling and bowing showing a full respect to God.
that the early Christians knelt down when they pray.

Why women should cover their hair while praying. He said that's a sign of respect to their husbands and God. Noting that Men were made like God and women made for men.

I learnt that prayer is a commandment of God, but many prayers are in Vain. the Lord does not answer sinners but the doers of God's will.
I learnt that if the person praying is evil, God doesn't listen but takes delight in the prayers of the upright.
I learnt that when we pray, we should not use vain repetitive words because God in heaven knows our intentions even before we say them.
repetition is more of pestering God and insinuating that God is deaf.

Ways in which we should pray that is in accordance to God's instructions is in the Bible.

I learnt that we should not to be rash with out mouth nor let Hasty our hearts. If we are to pray, let thy word be few.

May God continue to abide with us now and forever Amen.
