Anyone who claims Jesus did not care for doctrine knows nothing of the biblical Jesus...
Jesus instituted all the doctrines in the bible.
Only a person who wants to create his or her personal Jesus will believe otherwise...
Matthew 16:6-12 Then Jesus said unto them, Take heed and beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and of the Sadducees.
7 And they reasoned among themselves, saying, It is because we have taken no bread.
8 Which when Jesus perceived, he said unto them, O ye of little faith, why reason ye among yourselves, because ye have brought no bread?
9 Do ye not yet understand, neither remember the five loaves of the five thousand, and how many baskets ye took up?
10 Neither the seven loaves of the four thousand, and how many baskets ye took up?
11 How is it that ye do not understand that I spake it not to you concerning bread, that ye should beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and of the Sadducees?
12 Then understood they how that he bade them not beware of the leaven of bread, but of the DOCTRINE of the Pharisees and of the Sadducees.
There are many today that hold the erroneous belief that DOCTRINE is not important. Jesus Christ shows in the above verses that this modernist philosophy is not only false but also in direct conflict with the Word of God. The apostles and prophets who wrote the New Testament under the direct guidance of the Holy Spirit give considerable importance and emphasis on DOCTRINE.
Paul writes in his epistle to the Romans...
Romans 6:17 But God be thanked, that ye were the servants of sin, but ye have obeyed from the heart that form of DOCTRINE which was delivered you.
Paul writes again in Romans...
Romans 16:17 Now I beseech you, brethren, mark them which cause divisions and offences contrary to the DOCTRINE which ye have learned; and avoid them.
1Timothy 1:2-10
Unto Timothy, my own son in the faith: Grace, mercy, and
peace, from God our Father and Jesus Christ our Lord.
3 As I besought thee to abide still at Ephesus, when I went into
Macedonia, that thou mightest charge some that they teach no
other DOCTRINE,
4 Neither give heed to fables and endless genealogies, which
minister questions, rather than godly edifying which is in faith:
so do.
5 Now the end of the commandment is charity out of a pure
heart, and of a good conscience, and of faith unfeigned:
6 From which some having swerved have turned aside unto vain
jangling;
7 Desiring to be teachers of the law; understanding neither what
they say, nor whereof they affirm.
8 But we know that the law is good, if a man use it lawfully;
9 Knowing this, that the law is not made for a righteous man, but
for the lawless and disobedient, for the ungodly and for sinners,
for unholy and profane, for murderers of fathers and murderers of
mothers, for manslayers,
10 For whoremongers, for them that defile themselves with
mankind, for menstealers, for liars, for perjured persons, and if
there be any other thing that is contrary to SOUND DOCTRINE;
Paul exhorted Timothy to give attendance to Doctrine
1Timothy 4:13-16
Till I come, give attendance to reading, to exhortation, to
DOCTRINE.
14 Neglect not the gift that is in thee, which was given thee by
prophecy, with the laying on of the hands of the presbytery.
15 Meditate upon these things; give thyself wholly to them; that thy
profiting may appear to all.
16 Take heed unto thyself, and unto the DOCTRINE; continue in them:
for in doing this thou shalt both save thyself, and them that hear
thee.
Those who show contempt for DOCTRINE are fulfilling prophecy.
2Timothy 4:2-3
Preach the word; be instant in season, out of season; reprove,
rebuke, exhort with all longsuffering and DOCTRINE.
3 For the time will come when they will not endure sound DOCTRINE;
but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers,
having itching ears;
The Scriptures are profitable for DOCTRINE.
2Timothy 3:16-17
All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for
DOCTRINE, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in
righteousness:
17 That the man of God may be perfect, throughly furnished unto all
good works.
Sexual degenerates, and false teachers and prophets wish to create an occult mystic Jesus so they can foist their stench ridden doctrines on the unlearned and weak.
They have no direct experience with God. The lot of them are liars and servants of Satan.
Paul warns...
2 Corinthians 11:3 But I fear, lest by any means, as the serpent beguiled Eve through his subtilty, so your minds should be corrupted from the simplicity that is in Christ.
2 Corinthians 11:4 For if he that cometh preacheth another Jesus, whom we have not preached, or if ye receive another spirit, which ye have not received, or another gospel, which ye have not accepted, ye might well bear with him.
Mystics are people that would rather have an emotional experience with a "higher power" or a drug induced esperience than find the true God that the scriptures reveal.
This way they can create the god they choose rather than subject themselves to the living God...
