Oh, dear! Goodness NO! No way.
Holy Spirit tolerates no gatekeepers on HIS operations . . . generally and over all particularly. All creation is held together by His operations and He doesn't bother the Apostles about permission or sanction or routing 0.000000000000000000000000000000000000000000001% in that.
Nor does He do so in the affairs of individuals on earth currently.
Oh, it's quite fashionable for the leaders of every little group to insist that God ONLY FLOWS AT ALL OR FULLEST THROUGH HIS PERSONAL PARTICULAR LEADERSHIP, OFFICE, BRILLIANCE, SKILLS, GIFTINGS etc. . . . that HE HAS A CORNER ON GOD'S TRULY TRUEST TRUTH AND TRULY MOST SANCTIFIED REQUIREMENTS FOR LIFE AND HEAVEN--for whatever list of reasons.
Maybe it's tradition, family lineage, miracle experiences, memorization of Scripture; worship skills; anointing in a flash of light on the road to San Francisco; laying on of hands back to Adam; graduation from Harvard school of Divine Hogwash; fasting for 40 days on the back side of Las Vegas . . . whatever.
But the wise saints run screaming from the building and group the minute such an attitude or mentality shows up.
Righteousness is not inherited from parents nor spiritual leaders.
Holy Spirit, God contracts individually moment by moment with each individual alive. GOD BROOKS NO INTERLOPERS NOR HINDRANCES IN SUCH FELLOWSHIP, CONTRACTING.
HE CREATED US FOR FELLOWSHIP. THEN HIS ONLY SON DIED THAT IT MIGHT BE RESTORED.
It's not REMOTELY LOGICAL NOR BIBLICAL that he would THEN submit the fellowship to the idiocies and whims of a tradition bound, fossilized, calcified, rigid, narrow, fleshly, HUMAN BUREAUCRACY!
. . . whether the bureaucracy was 3 years old 300 years old or 3,000 years old.
I wasn't aware of the .0...1 percent can you site this in scriture?
Did Christ set up a bureaucracy in Matthew 16:18? Did he sent out bureaucrats in Mark 16:15?
