Matthew 15:9, Christians believe in man-made teachings?




MUSLIMS cite MATTHEW 15:9 to claim that the LORD JESUS SCOLDED CHRISTIANS for believing in MAN-MADE TEACHINGS.

MUSLIMS are WRONG. MATTHEW 15:9 DOES NOT REFER to CHRISTIANS.

And if WE BELIEVE MUSLIM TEACHINGS about MUHAMMAD, the VERSE REFERS to THEIR PROPHET and TO THEM.

+++

MATTHEW 15:9 reads:
"in vain do they worship me, teaching human precepts as doctrines.'"

MUSLIMS say that the LORD JESUS was TALKING to Christians who WORSHIP HIM. The LORD JESUS is supposedly telling Christians that their worship of the LORD JESUS is a mere "human precept" taught by men.

The CLAIM of MUSLIM only SHOW their LACK of UNDERSTANDING of the VERSE, which THEY are READING IT OUT OF CONTEXT.

READ the CONTEXT, staring MATTHEW 15:1, and YOU WILL SEE that the LORD JESUS was NOT TALKING TO CHRISTIANS but to JEWISH PHARISEES and SCRIBES.

MATTHEW 15:1 says:
Then PHARISEES and SCRIBES came to Jesus from Jerusalem and said, "Why do your disciples break the tradition of the elders? For they do not wash their hands before they eat."

The JEWISH LEADERS were QUESTIONING the LORD JESUS about the ACTIONS of HIS DISCIPLES who were “break[ing] the tradition of the elders.”

It was to that which the Lord Jesus RESPONDED and SAID MATTHEW 15:9, or MATTHEW 15:7-9.

"You hypocrites! Isaiah prophesied rightly about you when he said: 'This people honors me with their lips, but their hearts are far from me; in vain do they worship me, teaching human precepts as doctrines.'"

So, MATTHEW 15:9 is NOT ABOUT CHRISTIANS but ABOUT JEWISH PHARISEES and SCRIBES (read MATTHEW 15:1)

The LORD JESUS was CRITICIZING THEM for their FALSE WORSHIP of GOD and by "teaching human precepts as doctrines."

+++

But by the ADMISSION of MUSLIMS, THEY are also ACKNOWLEDGING that MATTHEW 15:9 also REFERS to them, ESPECIALLY THEIR PROPHET MUHAMMAD.

Why?

The LORD JESUS QUOTED MATTHEW 15:9 (or the ENTIRE VERSE of MATTHEW 15:7-9) from Isaiah 29:13.

ISAIAH 29:13 says:
”Because these people draw near with their mouths and honor me with their lips, while their hearts are far from me, and their worship of me is a human commandment learned by rote;”

Isaiah 29:13 refers to the PRECEDING VERSE, ISAIAH 29:12, which talks of a MAN or MEN who "CANNOT READ."

ISAIAH 29:12
”And if it is given to those who cannot read, saying, "Read this," they say, "We cannot read."

MUSLIMS say that this MAN who "CANNOT READ" in ISAIAH 29:12 is THEIR PROPHET MUHAMMAD, which is in reference to SAHIH BUKHARI BOOK 1:3.

Part of SAHIH BUKHARI BOOK 1:3 says:
”The angel came to him and asked him to read. The Prophet replied, "I do not know how to read. The Prophet added, "The angel caught me (forcefully) and pressed me so hard that I could not bear it any more. He then released me and again asked me to read and I replied, 'I do not know how to read.' Thereupon he caught me again and pressed me a second time till I could not bear it any more. He then released me and again asked me to read but again I replied, 'I do not know how to read (or what shall I read)?'”

So, by saying that MUHAMMAD is the PERSON REFERRED TO in ISAIAH 29:12, MUSLIMS are ADMITTING that it is MUHAMMAD whom ISAIAH 29:13 SAYS as "teaching human precepts as doctrines."

Therefore, BY THE ADMISSION and CLAIM of MUSLIMS, THEY are SAYING that MATTHEW 15:9 IS ABOUT THEM and THEIR PROPHET—NOT ABOUT CHRISTIANS.

    1. BASIC na KAPAG MAGKASAMA sa IISANG CHAPTER ay MAGKA-UGNAY ang mga NARIYAN.

      MUSLIM ang TINUTUKOY sa ISAIAH 29:12-13.

      HINDI ba MUSLIM ang PURO BUNGANGA ang PAGSAMBA sa DIYOS? MAGHAPON SILANG NGUMANGAWNGAW. PURO SALITA.

      ANO ang GAWA? PAGBALUKTOT sa KATOTOHANAN (PANINIRA sa BIBLE) o PAGPATAY sa mga HINDI UMAAYON sa KANILA at PANG-AAPI sa HINDI NILA KASUNDO.

      Ang ARAL din ng ISLAM ay HINDI GALING sa DIYOS kundi sa PROPETA LANG NILA.

      WALA pang MUSLIM na NAKAPROVE na DIYOS ang NAGBIGAY ng ARAL NILA. PURO PROPETA LANG NILA ang SOURCE ng KANILANG PANINIWALA. TAO LANG ang NAGBIGAY NIYON sa KANILA.
