A word of Wisdom: Making Disciples is Unbiblical

A word of Wisdom:

Making Disciples is Unbiblical 


Matthew 28:19-20 NIV

Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, 

[20] and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.”


The modern translations ALL contradict the Word of God.

In v19 they teli you to make disciples but never did instruct you how to do that. 

The instruction is actually in v20 but they have made it an additional thing you have to do after making disciples - note the "and" at the beginning of v20.

But isn't making disciples means "teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you"?


That is a small issue you say, but what is much worst is actually this:


Matthew 23:8,10 NIV

“But you are not to be called ‘Rabbi,’ for you have one Teacher, and you are all brothers. 

[10] Nor are you to be called instructors, for you have one Instructor, the Messiah.


By making disciples, you have just made yourself to be a Rabbi and has become the disciples' teacher or instructor. 

This is absolutely going against Jesus' teachings of not to be called a Rabbi. That is a contradicti9n.


The modern translations have succeeded in causing you to sin against Jesus' teachings, against God.


Now, let us look at the true Word of God:


Matthew 28:19-20 KJV

Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: 

[20] Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world. Amen.


Here, KJV tells us that we are commanded to teach all nations and not "make disciples".

Teaching all nations what you ask.

v20 clearly explained exactly that, which is to "teach them to observe all things whatsoever I hxve commanded you".


Did KJV cause you to sin against Jesus' teaching?

Let us look at the same verse in KJV:

Matthew 23:8,10 KJV

But be not ye called Rabbi: for one is your Master, even Christ; and all ye are brethren. 

[10] Neither be ye called masters: for one is your Master, even Christ.


Do you see that?

To "teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you" does not make you a Rabbi nor Master in any way although you can be regarded as a teacher or instructor in "teaching them to observe".


Nowhere did KJV say that you cannot be called a teacher or instructor but only a Rabbi or Master.


In fact, the modern translations in Matthew 23:8,10 have also contradict the following verses:


Ephesians 4:11 KJV

And he gave some, apostles; and some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and some, pastors and teachers;


1 Corinthians 12:28-29 KJV

And God hath set some in the church, first apostles, secondarily prophets, thirdly teachers, after that miracles, then gifts of healings, helps, governments, diversities of tongues. 

[29] Are all apostles? are all prophets? are all teachers? are all workers of miracles?


We can see that it is clearly not wrong to be called teachers or instructirs if you are merely "teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you" as Jesus has commanded you to do.


As a consequence of this grave error by modern translations in "making disciples" and vague meaning of the verses, these Masters or Teachers who think too highly of themselves, actually mistaken that "teachers" are suppose to teach the Word of God to their disciples as a part of discipleship and even neglect to "teach them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you" and caused their "disciples" to observe the traditions of men and the church instead of to observe all things whatsoever that Jesus has commanded us, due to their non-emphasis.


Alas! This teaching of the Word of God contradicted yet another verse:


John 14:26 KJV

But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you.


Did you not understand that the Word of God can only be taught by the Holy Spirit and not by any other carnal man?


As you can see on just these few verses alone, the modern translations have managed to change today's Christianity (if we can still call it that), 

into something that does not resemble the Christianity laid out in the New Testament at all, 

that manages to contradict the Word of God at almost every turning and every walk of the Christian life.


Would you still persist to read your modern translations and hold them tightly as though they are the Word of God?

  1. Thats why I love Mark 9:30-37. The disciples were arguing behind Jesus back about who was the greatest? Jesus said, if you want to be the greatest, then you must humble yourself, and become servant of all! Greatness is what carnal persons strive for! In Gods Kingdom there is only one Great, His Name YAHWEH! We are His humble servants. We serve Him by serving one another! The Word has not only been twisted but merchandised! So sad, leaving the Church weak and confused! The Holy Spirit is my Teacher, Comforter, Counselor, Helper!!! Trust Him with your whole heart and lean Not To Your Own Understanding and He will direct our daily paths!!!Good Word!!!
