1. Kissing in the altar, temple or holy places, as being commonly done during wedding ceremony.
   People are busy disobeying the commandments of God. And the religious leaders see all these things and keep quiet and silent.
   
   Then the Lord said to Moses, "Go to the people and consecrate them today and tomorrow, and let them wash their clothes. 11 And let them be ready for the third day. For on the third day the Lord will come down upon Mount Sinai in the sight of all the people. 12 You shall set bounds for the people all around, saying, 'Take heed to yourselves that you do not go up to the mountain or touch its base. Whoever touches the mountain shall surely be put to death. 13 Not a hand shall touch him, but he shall surely be stoned or shot with an arrow; whether man or beast, he shall not live.' When the trumpet sounds long, they shall come near the mountain."
   
   So Moses went down from the mountain to the people and sanctified the people, and they washed their clothes. 15 And he said to the people, "Be ready for the third day; do not come near your wives." Exodus 19:10-15
   


2. Man and woman sleeping in the altar area.
   For example, in a video currently trending online, one pastor slept with a woman in the same seat (back to back) inside the church. The seat was the special throne where the pastor does sit during prayers and worship. And the congregation were cheering, when they supposed to use cane to flog the pastor out of the church, for disobeying God’s commandment.
   


3. Politicians entering the altar or church, to speak to the congregation and to canvas for support and votes.
   
   This has become a common practice in Nigeria. In one video, you see Governor Obiano of Anambra State, kneeling down at the altar and placing his two hands on the altar. According to the news report, the governor was Mbaka’s adoration for prayers and support to win governorship election. And Mbaka was there looking at him? Without preventing him from going to the altar? Without rebuking him?
   
   Archangel Kaira commented on the incident, saying, “How dare Obiano touch the altar of the Most High God, in his sinfulness and with all the abominations he has committed?”
   


4. Children entering the altar section any time and any how.
   
   Recently, Pope Francis have had children who spontaneously rushed into the altar. The disappointing fact is that the pope and his reverend ministers allowed the children to continue roaming about within the altar section. One even had the audacity to seat on Pope Francis’ throne. Another was bold enough to go to a security officer, who was standing at attention, and the child was fiddling with his attire.
   
   What a show of spiritual ignorance and blindness! In spirit, and in the true worship of God, any person who is not anointed for the altar services does not go into the altar area. Besides, such persons are not allowed to touch the holy vessels used in temple services or worship of God.
   


5. Allowing women in their month periods into the temple or holy places.
   In several churches, ministries and fellowships, you see women touching the altar, counting the Holy Communion, setting the altar, sitting within the altar, dancing in the altar area, serving the Holy Communion or going into the altar to read lessons.
   
   The disappointing fact is that it is the reverend ministers who should stop such evil practices are the very ones allowing and encouraging the practices. They are busy doing whatever they like, without obeying the directives of God regarding temple services and ministration, and without minding the consequences.
   


6. Allowing people who are naked inside the temple and holy places.
   
   


7. Allowing people who are half-naked inside the temple and holy places.
   In one case, I saw Pope Francis sitting in his throne and half-naked entertainers were dancing all around him. He was busy watching them and smiling, when he supposed to rebuke and dismiss them.
   
   In most wedding ceremonies, the women wear all kinds of indecent dresses. They appear half-naked, in various ways: half shoulder, show back, split dresses, show front, ever ready, skimpy dresses, jump ups and jump downs, etc.
   
   And the men attend in all types of indecent wears, in the forms of baggy and saggy trousers, trouser before knickers, and in all forms of incomplete trousers, etc.
   


8. Allowing black colours or black colour designs.
   Check the bible, both Old Testament and New Testament, where God specified colours for use in temple services, decorations and ministrations. He never included black.
   
   Check the churches, ministries and fellowships, and see how they decorate their churches, altar and floors. Each minister does whatever he likes, using black colours and black colour designs, which God has spoken against.
   


9. Women wearing the dresses that are meant for the men.
   Nowadays, it is very common to see women wearing trousers, shorts, knickers, caps, etc. Likewise, several males today wear ear rings. Some even wear lady’s gown for entertainment purposes. What an abomination!
   


10. Wearing black dresses.
    


11. Wearing such dresses to prayers and worship.
    


12. Wearing ordinary dresses to prayers and worship.
    


13. Etc.
    
    

1. Fire Devoured Two Sons Of Aaron
   Then Nadab and Abihu, the sons of Aaron, each took his censer and put fire in it, put incense on it, and offered profane fire before the Lord, which He had not commanded them. 2 So fire went out from the Lord and devoured them, and they died before the Lord. 3 And Moses said to Aaron, "This is what the Lord spoke, saying:
   
   'By those who come near Me
   I must be regarded as holy;
   And before all the people
   I must be glorified.'"
   Leviticus 10:1-3
   
   The offence was so bad that Aaron and his family did not mourn the death of the two sons.
   


2. The Penalty For Uzziah's Pride
   But when he was strong his heart was lifted up, to his destruction, for he transgressed against the Lord his God by entering the temple of the Lord to burn incense on the altar of incense. 17 So Azariah the priest went in after him, and with him were eighty priests of the Lord — valiant men. 18 And they withstood King Uzziah, and said to him, "It is not for you, Uzziah, to burn incense to the Lord, but for the priests, the sons of Aaron, who are consecrated to burn incense. Get out of the sanctuary, for you have trespassed! You shall have no honor from the Lord God."
   
   Then Uzziah became furious; and he had a censer in his hand to burn incense. And while he was angry with the priests, leprosy broke out on his forehead, before the priests in the house of the Lord, beside the incense altar. 20 And Azariah the chief priest and all the priests looked at him, and there, on his forehead, he was leprous; so they thrust him out of that place. Indeed he also hurried to get out, because the Lord had struck him.
   
   King Uzziah was a leper until the day of his death. He dwelt in an isolated house, because he was a leper; for he was cut off from the house of the Lord. 2 Chronicles 26:16-21
   


3. Uzzah Died Just For Touching The Ark
   And when they came to Nachon's threshing floor, Uzzah put out his hand to the ark of God and took hold of it, for the oxen stumbled. (The ark was about to fall down and Uzzah stretched his hand to hold it, to save the situation. He died because he was not among those appointed and anointed to touch the ark of covenant.)
   
   Then the anger of the Lord was aroused against Uzzah, and God struck him there for his error; and he died there by the ark of God. 8 And David became angry because of the Lord's outbreak against Uzzah; and he called the name of the place Perez Uzzah to this day. 2 Samuel 6:6-8
   


4. Against Nakedness
   Nor shall you go up by steps to My altar, that your nakedness may not be exposed on it. Exodus 20:26
   


5. Even The Evil Spirits Oppose Those Who Are Unauthorized.
   Now God worked unusual miracles by the hands of Paul, 12 so that even handkerchiefs or aprons were brought from his body to the sick, and the diseases left them and the evil spirits went out of them. 13 Then some of the itinerant Jewish exorcists took it upon themselves to call the name of the Lord Jesus over those who had evil spirits, saying, "We exorcise you by the Jesus whom Paul preaches." 14 Also there were seven sons of Sceva , a Jewish chief priest, who did so.
   
   And the evil spirit answered and said, "Jesus I know, and Paul I know; but who are you?"
   Then the man in whom the evil spirit was leaped on them, overpowered them, and prevailed against them, so that they fled out of that house naked and wounded.
