Can elders decide to go against a command from God?

Here is my view of God’s commands / and the exception

1.    God commands the church to assemble – Hebrews 10:24-25

2.    Giving is commanded in the assembly – 1 Corinthians 16:1-2

3.    Communion is to be in the assembly – 1 Corinthians 11:

a.    Come together – 17

b.    Come together as a church – 18

c.     Come together in one place – 20

d.    When you come together – 33

e.    Wait for one another – 33

f.      Come together – 34

The Bible gives an exception to the clear commands of God -
Preservation of life is the higher priority.

1.    Mark 2:24-28

a.    David ate the showbread

b.    It was not lawful to enter the tabernacle

c.     Or eat the showbread

2.    Priests

a.    Worked on Sabbath

b.    They had a legal exception – Mark 2:26

3.    Rescue an animal in a pit on Sabbath

a.    Luke 14:5

b.    Work to rescue the animal

4.    Rahab

a.    Lied but is in the list of faithful in Hebrews 11:33

b.    To save lives of the spies

5.    Self-defense

a.    Killing an intruder is not murder

b.    Because you are protecting the life of your family

6.    Principle – preserve life is more important
