So what? So what if your right Ipx?
That depends on what you believe.
If you literally believe in Jah and Jah tells you "The Sky is Blue" and someone else says "The sky is Green" and you go with Green then you are in opposition to Jah about what color the sky is.
If Jah said, "The Sky is Blue and my chosen people and I have a covenant based on their belief that the sky is blue" then if you say "the sky is green" then you are not under that covenant.
When the Israelites created the golden calf, Jah sought to destroy them and start over with Moses and Joshua. Moses talked him out of it. So this question of who is God... is a question that Jah feels strongly enough to support capital punishment/execution.
If you think it's not a big deal then I would ask what bible are you reading because time and time again the Israelites were judged for following after other gods. It was so important that the Israelites were told to repeat 3 times a day (Duet 6) that Jah was the only true God. If it wasn't a big deal they wouldn't have had to do that.
Isaiah 26:13
O Lord our God, other lords beside thee have had dominion over us: but by thee only will we make mention of thy name.
Isaiah 43:11
I, even I, am the Lord; and beside me there is no saviour.
Isaiah 44:6
Thus saith the Lord the King of Israel, and his redeemer the Lord of hosts; I am the first, and I am the last; and beside me there is no God.
Isaiah 44:8
Fear ye not, neither be afraid: have not I told thee from that time, and have declared it? ye are even my witnesses. Is there a God beside me? yea, there is no God; I know not any.
Isaiah 45:5
I am the Lord, and there is none else, there is no God beside me: I girded thee, though thou hast not known me:
Isaiah 45:6
That they may know from the rising of the sun, and from the west, that there is none beside me. I am the Lord, and there is none else.
Isaiah 45:21
Tell ye, and bring them near; yea, let them take counsel together: who hath declared this from ancient time? who hath told it from that time? have not I the Lord? and there is no God else beside me; a just God and a Saviour; there is none beside me.
All of these verses after the first one I quoted are Jah telling you the sky is blue. That is the foundation of what it is to follow Jah.
Mark 7:13
Making the word of God of none effect through your tradition, which ye have delivered: and many such like things do ye.
Galatians 3:17
And this I say, that the covenant, that was confirmed before of God in Christ, the law, which was four hundred and thirty years after, cannot disannul, that it should make the promise of none effect.
So basically when you "do your own thing" so to speak, and bring in whatever pagan traditions you want, it makes the word of God of none effect and the covenant (promise/contract) void.
That's what.
