The LORD will not give His glory to another…..neither His praise to “graven images”.

The “graven images” are the church handwritings of ordinances/dogmas that men have graven/inscribed for themselves to keep and serve rather than God’s laws that are put in our mind and written on our hearts. Many go to them and “observe”….to keep and serve them instead of keeping His commandments which are written upon the heart.

His glory does NOT appear over any man-based, handwriting established “church”. The outside nations of the world do not see His glory appear over the “churches” of men…..nor do they praise God when they look at them.

Isa 42:8 KJV
(8) I am the LORD: that is my name: and my glory will I not give to another, neither my praise to graven images.

The glory of God has departed from those who have their church handwritings placed/established inside the places of worship of God.

Rom 1:22-25 KJV
(22) Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools,

They have changed the glory of God into an “image” made like corruptible man who lusts to have handwritings full of by-laws, statutes, creeds, constitutional articles, amendments, etc, etc, etc, etc.

These handwritings are made like the outside nations resembling their governing documents by which they judge and govern themselves.

The outside nations of the world and its people who do not have the Spirit of God within them are like the animals of the world….behaving like them as they go only after their base lusts.

(23) And changed the glory of the uncorruptible God into an image made like to corruptible man, and to birds, and fourfooted beasts, and creeping things.

Any man-based (built upon handwritings of church scribes) church is “unclean”….and those who are attached to them are also “unclean” as they defile their own mortal flesh just by sitting together with them.

They “dishonor” their own mortal bodies between themselves. God has given them up to uncleanness.

(24) Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonour their own bodies between themselves:

The worship and serve the “creature”….the fabrication of their own hands (their handwritings)….more than the Creator.

(25) Who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature more than the Creator, who is blessed for ever. Amen.

Man’s handwritings of ordinances…”the gods”… did not make the heavens and the earth. The living God did though.

Man’s handwritings are called “other gods” because they function as other “judges” rather than have the Living Judge rule over them. Elohim = JUDGES.

Men use their governing documents to judge others with….and mete out punishments as written to those who do not keep and serve them. They function as other judges..."other gods". Yet, there is no life in them like our Living Creator who made the heavens and the earth.

Jer 10:11-15 KJV
(11) Thus shall ye say unto them, The gods that have not made the heavens and the earth, even they shall perish from the earth, and from under these heavens.
(12) He hath made the earth by his power, he hath established the world by his wisdom, and hath stretched out the heavens by his discretion.
(13) When he uttereth his voice, there is a multitude of waters in the heavens, and he causeth the vapours to ascend from the ends of the earth; he maketh lightnings with rain, and bringeth forth the wind out of his treasures.


Every man is “brutish”…consumed by fire…in his “knowledge” that he has written in his documents. He thought himself as “wise” by coming up with a handwriting. Every founder is confounded by the “graven image”…the handwriting that was graven/inscribed by the church scribes.

The handwritings are firmly established in the churches of fleshly-minded men. They are “molten” images….rigidly standing where it should not be. They have no breath in them. There is no life in them. They are falsehoods….untruths.

(14) Every man is brutish in his knowledge: every founder is confounded by the graven image: for his molten image is falsehood, and there is no breath in them.

They are vanity….emptiness…and the work of errors. They will perish.

(15) They are vanity, and the work of errors: in the time of their visitation they shall perish.

Man’s handwriting of church ordinances/dogmas is the “abomination” of desolation standing where it ought not be established.

It desolates that gathering of people who have gathered together to worship God. The glory of God has departed from them leaving them desolate. He has given them up to uncleanness to defile their mortal bodies among themselves as they sit together around the abomination…the handwriting of ordinances.

Mat 24:15 KJV
(15) When ye therefore shall see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, stand in the holy place, (whoso readeth, let him understand)

We must FLEE from them and not look back….taking nothing from them with us. Leave the commands and dogmas of their documents behind.

Mat 24:16-18 KJV
(16) Then let them which be in Judaea flee into the mountains:
(17) Let him which is on the housetop not come down to take any thing out of his house:

(18) Neither let him which is in the field return back to take his clothes.

But woe unto them that are with “child”….

Mat 24:19 KJV
(19) And woe unto them that are with child, and to them that give suck in those days!

That is, with the “child” of sin.

Many in the churches of men will hear the Word of Truth and will be tempted to speak out against it in his own lust.

When lust has “conceived” to speak evil towards what one hears, they are “with child” so-to-speak. They then give “birth” to sin as they open their mouths to speak evil. They then make it grow….nursing their sin by speaking a multitude of evil words….and when “it is finished”, it brings forth their own mortal death.

Jas 1:13-16 KJV
(13) Let no man say when he is tempted, I am tempted of God: for God cannot be tempted with evil, neither tempteth he any man:
(14) But every man is tempted, when he is drawn away of his own lust, and enticed.
(15) Then when lust hath conceived, it bringeth forth sin: and sin, when it is finished, bringeth forth death.

(16) Do not err, my beloved brethren.
