Lesson Gained:
1 tim 6:3: If any man teach otherwise, and consent not to wholesome words, even the words of our Lord Jesus Christ, and to the doctrine which is according to godliness
Brother Eli spoke about the true doctrines of God. And he said the doctrine of God are His commandments from the Holy Bible
Mark 7:7-8:Howbeit in vain do they worship me, teaching for doctrines the commandments of men.
For laying aside the commandment of God, ye hold the tradition of men, as the washing of pots and cups: and many other such like things ye do.
So we need to investigated all doctrine been heard so as to know the true doctrine, because if we depart from the doctrines of Christ and follow the doctrine of men our service to God is in vain.
Matt 28:19:9 Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost:
Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world. Amen
It was Gods commandment that his doctrine should be thought to all nations and whom ever that believed should be baptized.
So the first commandment of God after hearing the word and believing is to be baptized.
How to proof baptism was the first commandment :
Acts 22:16: And now why tarriest thou? arise, and be baptized, and wash away thy sins, calling on the name of the Lord.
After paul's encounter with Jesus Christ, the first thing he was commanded to do was to be baptized. So the first commandment after our receiving and believing of the word of God is to be baptized.
Brother Elis also made me understand that you can't receive Christ and reject His word and His church.
John 12:48-50:
He that rejecteth me, and receiveth not my words, hath one that judgeth him: the word that I have spoken, the same shall judge him in the last day.
For I have not spoken of myself; but the Father which sent me, he gave me a commandment, what I should say, and what I should speak.
And I know that his commandment is life everlasting: whatsoever I speak therefore, even as the Father said unto me, so I speak
Eph 3:6: That the Gentiles should be fellowheirs, and of the same body, and partakers of his promise in Christ by the gospel
I also learnt that God doctrine and commandments are also for us gentiles not only the jews
