1 Peter 4:15 For let none of you suffer as a murderer, or a thief, or an evil doer, or a meddler in other men's matters.

The Apostle Peter states something that religion really does not want to deal with, number one .1) Peter makes the point no Christian should suffer as a murderer, a thief, and evil doer, or a meddler. He did not say that a Christian's would not suffer as one of these things.

And .2) which is stunning Peter puts meddling in the same category as murderer, thieves, and evil doers, wow! The question Is, is meddling, or being a busy body as evil as being a murderer? Here in today's society respect for each other and a person position has been lost, but according to God its everything. When God appoints and puts a person into position it must be exercise carefully and cautiously unlike the evil doers whom disrespect God given authority thinking they are equal by self-appointment.

Philip. 2:5 Have this in your mind, which was also in Christ Jesus,
2:6 who, existing in the form of God, didn't consider equality with God a thing to be grasped, 2:7 but emptied himself, taking the form of a servant, being made in the likeness of men. 2:8 And being found in human form, he humbled himself, becoming obedient to death, yes, the death of the cross.
2:9 Therefore God also highly exalted him, and gave to him the name which is above every name;

This was Satan down fall, and has been the plagued heaped upon mankind every since. Such egotistic thinking is equated by God as murder, evil doing, and being a thief, stunning is it not? We are not in charge of others lives, we are not their father or mother placed upon earth to fix, run, and offer advise, when uninvited. Such presumptuous is what Satan did when taking control of Adam and Eves life. Making himself a thief, murderer, evil doer, and a meddler.

Jude1:8 Yet in like manner these also in their dreaming defile the flesh, despise authority, and slander celestial beings. 1:9 But Michael, the archangel, when contending with the devil and arguing about the body of Moses, dared not bring against him an abusive condemnation, but said, "May the Lord rebuke you!" 1:10 But these speak evil of whatever things they don't know. What they understand naturally, like the creatures without reason, they are destroyed in these things.

The same haughtiness is found in all of Satan system of thing through government, religion, and commerce. The taking of rights from others through the assumption a person has a right because of some talent, and/or education. Sadly, false religion has the same conduct. We find often those reading their bibles are worst meddlers into someone else affairs, why? They have been educated in the ways of their mother a religious harlot who intrude into their neighbors affairs, or other member of their congregation, why? because they have a knowledge of the scriptures. But the question is? Have they been appointed by God to get involved into private affairs of othere, or is it presumptuously allowed by their religion?

1 Thessalonians 4:11 and that you make it your ambition to lead a quiet life, and to do your own business, and to work with your own hands, even as we instructed you;

Harlots do not respect the marriage arrangement, and God given rules that govern marriage, they disrespect headship, and the damage done to children. Moreover, false religion disrespect the rules God given families freely so mankind can prosper in marriage for peace and happiness within the family arrangement.

1 Timothy 4:3 forbidding marriage and commanding to abstain from foods which God created to be received with thanksgiving by those who believe and know the truth.

Hebrews 13:4 Let marriage be held in honor among all, and let the bed be undefiled: but God will judge the sexually immoral and adulterers.

Prov. 5:3 For the lips of an adulteress drip honey. Her mouth is smoother than oil,
5:4 But in the end she is as bitter as wormwood, and as sharp as a two-edged sword.
5:5 Her feet go down to death. Her steps lead straight to Sheol.
5:6 She gives no thought to the way of life. Her ways are crooked, and she doesn't know it.
5:7 Now therefore, my sons, listen to me. Don't depart from the words of my mouth.

The scriptures are clear God qualifies those he sets as teachers in his congregation not man or a religious education. Within that position given by God through gifts there are limits of authority God has set, which if overstepped comes a heavier judgment by God! Satan was not given authority to insert himself into mankind affairs certainly not dividing off Adam wife from his headship which headship was God given authority placed upon Adam and Eve.

James 3:1 Let not many of you be teachers, my brothers, knowing that we will receive heavier judgment.

Many are deceived by knowledge, as a proof of God given authority. However, such is false religion because under God's rule people do not appoint themselves because they have some gift. In fact, the one faithful slave Christ Jesus did not appoint himself to a position, or did he take a position over his brothers making himself king god while upon earth.

Luke 12:13 One of the multitude said to him, "Teacher, tell my brother to divide the inheritance with me." 12:14 But he said to him, "Man, who made me a judge or an arbitrator over you?"

However, we find the evil slave taking authority because of his pride and self-appointment beating his fellow slaves as what? Less by his authority over them on earth. Yes, because of his knowledge and experience gained through some false religion the presumptuous evil slave demands his authority be respected and/or he will beat down any slave that does not do as he demands.

Proverbs 8:13 The fear of Yahweh is to hate evil. I hate pride, arrogance, the evil way, and the perverse mouth.

Luke 11:34 The lamp of the body is the eye. Therefore when your eye is good, your whole body is also full of light; but when it is evil, your body also is full of darkness.

Matt. 24:48 But if that evil servant should say in his heart, 'My lord is delaying his coming,' 24:49 and begins to beat his fellow servants, and eat and drink with the drunkards, 24:50 the lord of that servant will come in a day when he doesn't expect it, and in an hour when he doesn't know it, 24:51 and will cut him in pieces, and appoint his portion with the hypocrites. There is where the weeping and grinding of teeth will be.

This conduct is the conduct of a very fleshly minded individual, they judges themselves righteous, as a king judge upon earth by his position given by man, and demands respect for his power treating others as slaves or servants. Subsequently, unlike the Son of God whom waited his Father approval unto death, the evil slave like Satan exalted himself not waiting upon God's approval.

1 Thessalonians 1:10 and to wait for his Son from heaven, whom he raised from the dead--Jesus, who delivers us from the wrath to come.

Philippians 3:20 For our citizenship is in heaven, from where we also wait for a Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ;

Galatians 5:5 For we, through the Spirit, by faith wait for the hope of righteousness.
Romans 8:25 But if we hope for that which we don't see, we wait for it with patience.

He speak abusively of those God creates in his own image whom God has given position freely to all mankind a conscience to choose right and wrong. Those with pride of Satan set themselves up as teachers, they assume superiority, and take rights over peoples lives they meddle into affairs of their lives as an god to run it and/or correct others sinful flaws.

Matt. 7:1 "Don't judge, so that you won't be judged.
7:2 For with whatever judgment you judge, you will be judged; and with whatever measure you measure, it will be measured to you. 7:3 Why do you see the speck that is in your brother's eye, but don't consider the beam that is in your own eye? 7:4 Or how will you tell your brother, 'Let me remove the speck from your eye;' and behold, the beam is in your own eye?

Meddling is the root/seed of evil that caused death to our human race this is why Peter and the other apostles spoke so strongly about those putting their nose into other peoples business. In today's world the abuse of being a meddler and busybody in peoples lives has become a hate feast of slanderous due of social media. Those using social media take like a thief others right sticking their nose into private matters than openly slandering others making themselves an evil doers, moreover, making themselves wicked by presumptuously thinking they have authority because the illusion of power by a computer to speak abusively of others. God warns us about these critical times where those claiming to love God would deny the very power of Christ life working in them.

2Tim. 3:1 But know this, that in the last days, grievous times will come.
3:2 For men will be lovers of self, lovers of money, boastful, arrogant, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy,
3:3 without natural affection, unforgiving, slanderers, without self-control, fierce, no lovers of good, 3:4 traitors, headstrong, conceited, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God;
3:5 holding a form of godliness, but having denied the power thereof. Turn away from these, also. 3:6 For of these are those who creep into houses, and take captive gullible women loaded down with sins, led away by various lusts, 3:7 always learning, and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth.

The power of God is proven by fruit of Holy Spirit it is not proven by evil words to conquer our enemy. The basic tenant of the power of God is to love our neighbor, not slander him or her because we think we have some authority by knowledge of the scriptures. It is the wisdom that comes down from above which proves we are of God, not the winning of a battle over the scriptures, let us not brag lying against the very truth of Christ Jesus.

James 3:14 But if you have bitter jealousy and selfish ambition in your heart, don't boast and don't lie against the truth.
3:15 This wisdom is not that which comes down from above, but is earthly, sensual, and demonic. 3:16 For where jealousy and selfish ambition are, there is confusion and every evil deed. 3:17 But the wisdom that is from above is first pure, then peaceful, gentle, reasonable, full of mercy and good fruits, without partiality, and without hypocrisy. 3:18 Now the fruit of righteousness is sown in peace by those who make peace.
