shall be put to death."
--- [Leviticus 24: 15-16 - Bible]

of preachers and leaders in other churches
who preach and teach

of their congregations and perishes;
and all of these preachers and leaders
USE THE NAME OF THE LORD,
AND USE IT IN VAIN,
HAVING NOT AUTHORITY."

{If any of them were in
THE COUNCIL IN HEAVEN
BEFORE THE WORLD WAS, where
The Lord chose His rulers and leaders,
it is doubtful. And even if some of them were,
they are as yet not obedient to
being ordained by someone here who
has the authority to ordain them to
preach, teach, expound, and exhort.}

"YE HAVE NOT CHOSEN ME,
BUT I HAVE CHOSEN YOU,
AND ORDAINED YOU ..."
--- [partial verse from John 15: 16 - Bible]


{And I bear testimony that we
should not curse The Lord,
such as claiming that
God's last name is 'Damn,'
or use His name without authority
to use it, ---
IN THE NAME OF JESUS CHRIST. AMEN."
