And the whole congregation of the children of Israel murmured against Moses and Aaron in the wilderness:- Exodus 16:2.
Today it's not hard to hear people speak derogatory about men of God across the nations of the world including in churches. It's a very sad development, although it has been right from the days of old. We know that when you speak against a messenger, you speak against the one that sent him naturally.
Saul (before he become, Apostle Paul) in Acts 9:1, he was breathing out threatening and slaughter against the disciples and the church, in v. 4, a voice said to him, "Saul, Saul, why persecutest thou me?".
You notice he did not say, why are you persecuting my church, or my disciples? But, ME! Meaning, He took it personal.
In Exodus 16:8 says,
"And Moses said, This shall be, when the Lord shall give you in the evening flesh to eat, and in the morning bread to the full; for that the Lord heareth your murmurings which ye murmur against him: and what are we? your murmurings are not against us, but against the Lord."
If at any point you don't believe in the messenger, you can inquire from the Lord yourself and He will speak to you and guide into all truth, rather than speak against them. Because you will be judging yourself to condemnation by judging them.
1 Thessalonians 4:8 says,
"He therefore that despiseth, despiseth not man, but God, who hath also given unto us his holy Spirit."
Also in John 14:24,
"He that loveth me not keepeth not my sayings: and the word which ye hear is not mine, but the Father's which sent me."
Ignorance is not an excuse in law, it is the same in the spirit realm.
There is an accuser of the brethren{Revelation 12:10}. But, thank be to God, we have an advocate{1 John 2:1}. Hallelujah!!!
Have a fruitful week, in Jesus name!
Jesus is Lord!
