Men are “justified by faith” and kept “by faith.”
“Justified by faith”
“Therefore we conclude that a man is JUSTIFIED BY FAITH without the deeds of the law.” Romans 3:28
“Kept by faith”
“Who are KEPT by the power of God THROUGH FAITH unto salvation ready to be revealed in the last time.” 1 Peter 1:5
Justified by faith but sanctified by law keeping????
NOT. “The just (those justified by God) shall live by faith.”
Born again New Testament disciples are saved by grace through faith. They are saved, justified, and sanctified by faith. They live by faith and not by law or law keeping. See Hebrews 11:6.
“For therein is the righteousness of God revealed from faith to faith (not law to law): as it is written, The just shall live by faith (not law keeping).” Romans 1:17
“But that no man is justified by the law in the sight of God, it is evident: for, The just shall live BY FAITH.” Galatians 3:11
“Now the just shall live by faith: but if any man draw back (go back to law keeping), my soul shall have no pleasure in him.” Hebrews 10:38
Torah Keeping Antichrists
IF you tout “Keep Torah” you are a lost soul and heretic who isn’t known by the ONE who came in the volume of the book in which HE is featured as the Grand Subject from Genesis to Revelation! Repent now sinner! Those known of the Messiah have repented, admitted their own utter guilt, believed upon Jesus, and KEEP HIM – as “first love.” (Revelation 2:4-5)
Better scrap your futile attempt to keep torah perfectly and get JESUS – who is the ONLY ONE who kept torah! THEN He nailed it to the cross and took it out of the way!!! (Colossians 2:14-19)
YES the whole 66 book canon of the Bible is for us and yet, IT reveals that a NEW covenant superseded the Old one. The book of Hebrews reveals to us that a “BETTER covenant” with “BETTER promises” made the old covenant obsolete “for righteousness.” (Hebrews 7:22; 8:6; Romans 10:4) The faith of the NEWWWW Testament saint, saved by grace, is not set upon trying to keep the law (“keeping Torah”) but rather set upon the only ONE to ever keep the law perfectly – then He. Christ, nailed it to the cross and “took it out of the way.” (Colossians 2:14-19) It’s over so repent and get over it, now! The infinitely inferior old was a mere shadow of the infinitely superior NEW Testament that was to come and HAS come with Christ! (Hebrews 10:1) Beware of the demonic judaizing devils in our midst. They are snakes!
If you can read the following verse and still think you are going to be right with God by law-keeping or that you even can keep it perfectly, you are completely deranged, deceived, delusional, and hell bound.
“Knowing that a man is not justified by the works of the law, but by the faith of Jesus Christ, even we have believed in Jesus Christ, that we might be justified by the faith of Christ, and not by the works of the law: for by the works of the law shall no flesh be justified.” Galatians 2:16
Anyone who gets saved and then doesn’t drill down into the doctrinal letters and epistles and get grounded in grace through faith justification and living, will be susceptible to being deceived by the antichrist judaizers in our midst. It will cost many of them their eternal souls. There will be not 1 law-keeping judaizing snake in Heaven. If you don’t know that, you are biblically illiterate. Romans. Galatians. Ephesians. Philippians. Colossians. Hebrews.
“It IS Finished”
The Ultimate sacrifice has already been made – “It is finished” or paid in full! (John 19:30)
“But now, AFTER that ye have known God, or rather are known of God, how turn ye again to the weak and beggarly elements, whereunto ye desire again to be in bondage? 10 Ye observe days, and months, and times, and years. 11 I am afraid of you, lest I have bestowed upon you labour in vain. … Christ is become of no effect unto you, whosoever of you are justified by the law; ye are fallen from grace.” Galatians 4:9-11; 5:4
God’s people are “justified by faith” in Jesus, not law (Romans 5:1, etc.). The problem is not with the types and shadows given us in Scripture of the Messiah who was to come. No, the issue here is with those who would bring you back under the law.
—-ARE NEW TESTAMENT CHRISTIANS supposed to be focusing on keeping the Old Law, the Ten Commandments? NO! Jesus is the only ONE who ever kept the Law perfectly and because of who He is and what He did (sinless), He went to the cross and nailed that old law to it and “TOOK IT OUT OF THE WAY.” (Colossians 2:14-19). Ever heard that CB saying “10-4 good buddy”? Well Romans 10:4 tells us “For Christ is THE END (it’s over!) of the law for righteousness to every one that believeth.” The old law was replaced by an infinitely greater covenant by Christ’s blood. the old law is obsolete “for righteousness.” (Romans 10:4) The Law reveals and uncovers and magnifies just how wicked and sinful we are (Romans 7). It brings us to CHRIST who is the only Salvation (Galatians 3:24).
“Blotting out the handwriting of ordinances that was against us, which was contrary to us, and took it out of the way, nailing it to his cross; 15 And having spoiled principalities and powers, he made a shew of them openly, triumphing over them in it. 16 Let no man therefore judge you in meat, or in drink, or in respect of an holyday, or of the new moon, or of the sabbath days: 17 Which are a shadow of things to come; but the body is of Christ. 18 Let no man beguile you of your reward in a voluntary humility and worshipping of angels, intruding into those things which he hath not seen, vainly puffed up by his fleshly mind, 19 And not holding the Head, from which all the body by joints and bands having nourishment ministered, and knit together, increaseth with the increase of God.” Colossians 2:14-19
— Jesus took the law out of our way so we could love and worship God with all of our hearts, minds, and strength in the Spirit (John 4:23-24; Galatians 3:1-3; Colossians 2:14-19).
“I do not frustrate the grace of God: for if righteousness come by the law, then Christ is dead in vain.” Galatians 2:21
Why did Jesus come? Why would the Father have sent His only begotten Son of there was not a great need? The great need was to redeem fallen mankind and the old law had only been put in place as a tutor or “schoolmaster to bring us unto Christ.”
“Wherefore the law was our schoolmaster to bring us unto Christ, that we might be justified by faith.” Galatians 3:24
Once you are brought to CHRIST via the conviction of the law, realizing you have broken it and cannot possibly keep it all, you “rejoice with joy unspeakable and full of glory.”
“Whom having not seen, ye love; in whom, though now ye see him not, yet believing, ye rejoice with joy unspeakable and full of glory.” 1 Peter 1:8
—– The NEW Testament actually tells us to study the Old Testament Scriptures but that doesn’t mean God contradicted Himself to say we are still under the old law for righteousness. Blasphemy! The New Testament Scriptures tell us to read the Old Testament Scriptures but not for righteousness. No. Christ HAS COME and died and was raised again from the dead and He is “THE END of the law FOR RIGHTEOUSNESS to ever one that believeth.” (Romans 10:4) Any questions?
ANY PERSON who teaches that blood-bought NEW Testament saints, saved by grace through faith, are under the law of Moses is an antichrist! Run!
In the Old Testament Scriptures we receive “learning” and admonishing and receive hope and comfort (Romans 15:4; 1 Corinthians 10:6, 11). We are not to deny Christ by attempting to go back under the obsolete old law which He already came and died to put away – to do away with for righteousness. What do we learn in Romans 10:4 good buddy?
“For Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to every one that believeth.” Romans 10:4
We need to get over it. The old covenant was only in place to lead us to Christ and to remain in it is like the wife whose husband is in the military and returns home from war. She prepares a separate bedroom for him while he is away and when he finally arrives back home, she tells him she’s going to continue to sleep with his picture and she wants him to now sleep in the extra bedroom she’s prepared for him. Yes let’s laugh together at that ludicrous notion. Absurdity. Well, that’s what the Judaizing devils are doing – they are sleeping with the mere pictures, types, and shadows we received of Jesus under the infinitely inferior old covenant instead of repenting and putting their faith in the Messiah who HAS COME and accomplished full and complete, perfect redemption for us.
The message the whole Bible, beginning with the Old Testament Scriptures, have always been about and to point us to the LORD Himself. His name is Jesus. You see, the Old Testament before Christ was born into the earth as a man to fulfill what the Old Covenant merely gave as shadows and illustrations – while Jesus Christ was pre-incarnate. In other words, before He actually came in the flesh – “Even so we, when we were children, were in bondage under the elements of the world: 4 But when the fulness of the time was come, God sent forth his Son, made of a woman, made under the law, 5 To redeem them that were under the law, that we might receive the adoption of sons. 6 And because ye are sons, God hath sent forth the Spirit of his Son into your hearts, crying, Abba, Father.” Galatians 4:3-6
Those under the Old Covenant were in an infinitely inferior covenant than the New. Jesus came and ratified the New Testament in His own blood (Matthew 26:28). God wants us to read His Word and get a slight clue here. Beginning with Galatians will be a good place to begin. Yet, if the individual refuses to actually turn their heart to the LORD in repentance, a blinding veil will still remain over their understanding (2 Corinthians 3:16-18).

JESUS IS COMING AND THE TRUE BODY OF CHRIST IS “HOLDING FORTH (BOLDLY DECLARING) THE WORD OF LIFE”
“Holding forth the word of life; that I may rejoice in the day of Christ, that I have not run in vain, neither laboured in vain.” Philippians 2:16
WHEN you speak God’s Word, you are speaking divine authority.
“These things speak, and exhort, and rebuke with all authority. Let no man despise thee.” Titus 2:15
“And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth. 19 Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: 20 Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world. Amen.” Matthew 28:18-20
“That the communication of thy faith may become effectual by the acknowledging of every good thing which is in you in Christ Jesus.” Philemon 1:6
“Thy words were found, and I did eat them; and thy word was unto me the joy and rejoicing of mine heart: for I am called by thy name, O LORD God of hosts.” Jeremiah 15:16
Nourishing the Body of Christ
“If thou put the brethren in remembrance of these things, thou shalt be a good minister of Jesus Christ, nourished up in the words of faith and of good doctrine, whereunto thou hast attained.” 1 Timothy 4:6
“All the days of the afflicted are evil: but he that is of a merry heart hath a continual feast.” Proverbs 15:15
The best way to learn is to teach.
HOW well do you know your way around in God’s Word?
Jesus knew His way around God’s Word. Do you? If not, why not?
“And there was delivered unto him the book of the prophet Esaias. And when he had opened the book, he FOUND the place where it was written,” Luke 4:17
The disciple of Christ must daily and diligently search, study, and learn God’s Word in light of His Great Commission command to us to teach His Word to others (Matthew 28:18-20). Our ability to minister is in large part based on our knowledge of God’s Word or the ability to navigate God’s Word (King James Bible).
MAKE THE DIFFERENCE – OBEY GOD, “PREACH THE WORD.” (2 TIMOTHY 4:2)
Tip: Always know WHERE you are reading in God’s Word – chapter and verse. You’ll be surprised at the repertoire that begins to build, making you, like Jesus, a good navigator of our LORD’s Word as you preach His Word (Luke 4:17).
Have you ever pondered why there is little or no Scripture being used when listening to someone pretending to be speaking about the LORD? You should wonder (Matthew 7:16, 20; 1 John 4:1).
“Preach the word” is the divine mandate, command (2 Timothy 4:2).
Let us cease to pretend that we represent the LORD when everything we say isn’t coming straight out of His Word. Read that again please.
“If any man speak, let him speak as the oracles (written Word) of God; if any man minister, let him do it as of the ability which God giveth: that God in all things may be glorified through Jesus Christ, to whom be praise and dominion for ever and ever. Amen.” 1 Peter 4:11
Think God is calling you to serve? Good. If He has saved you, He has called you (Ephesians 2:8-10; 4:7). Get lost in His Word every day (Jeremiah 15:16). Read it (Revelation 1:3). Study it (2 Timothy 2:15). Memorize it (Proverbs 4:4). Meditate upon it day and night (Joshua 1:8; Psalm 1). THAT’s your prep for ministry, not going to an antichrist seminary. Jesus inducted you into His school of the Holy Ghost and Word the moment He saved you.
“As I was listening I was thinking of Paul. Who was a very educated man in the law. But after he was saved he spent three years being taught exclusively by the Lord Jesus Himself. And he says he “conferred not with flesh and blood.” But he was taught “by the revelation of Jesus Christ.” (Gal 1:12-18). All of us should be taught by the Lord in His Word and not learned through mere men or books. But by a direct revelation from the Lord Jesus Christ! Jesus is The Word of God (John 1:1, Rev 19:13).” Karen Cochran

WHEN PARENTS GET OLD …

WHEN PARENTS GET OLD …
“Let them grow old with the same love that they let you grow … let them speak and tell repeated stories with the same patience and interest that they heard yours as a child … let them overcome, like so many times when they let you win … let them enjoy their friends just as they let you … let them enjoy the talks with their grandchildren, because they see you in them … let them enjoy living among the objects that have accompanied them for a long time, because they suffer when they feel that you tear pieces of this life away … let them be wrong, like so many times you have been wrong and they didn’t embarrass you by correcting you …
LET THEM LIVE and try to make them happy the last stretch of the path they have left to go; give them your hand, just like they gave you their hand when you started your path!
(“Honor your mother and father and your days shall be long upon the earth”.) – God”
“Children, obey your parents in the Lord: for this is right. 2 Honour thy father and mother; (which is the first commandment with promise;) 3 That it may be well with thee, and thou mayest live long on the earth.” Ephesians 6:1-3
Karen Cochran writes:
“A few years ago the Lord spoke to me and I heard honor your Father and Mother. I didn’t know that my Mom would be moving close to me in a few months and I would become her primary helper. It has been one of the biggest challenges of my life because she has dementia and isn’t always kind. I have had to come home many nights and sit at the feet of Jesus and ask forgiveness because I was not like Jesus to her. Then I go back everyday because the Lord commands us to Honor our Mother. He didn’t promise it would be easy. I have to be like Jesus and say Father forgive them for they know not what they do. Luke 23: 34 .As people who have dementia do not know what they are doing or saying.”
Sharing how God is working in her life concerning her relationship with her beloved mother, Karen Cochran writes:
“I had to die to being right. Pride! How could I love her (my mother) with the love of Jesus? How would she see Jesus in me? She would not see Him in me in all my pride and arrogance! By being full of pride, all I did was stir up strife. Proverbs 10:12 ‘Hatred stirreth up strifes: but love covereth all sins.’ Because she would retaliate and would be angry. I had to learn to keep my mouth shut. And it has completely changed our relationship. But first the Lord had to change me and cleanse me from my ‘know it all’ attitude and my pride. I went to the Lord and said ‘why is she (my mother) so mean to me’. The Lord straightened me out quick. It was me not her! I couldn’t control her! All I could do was allow God to root out what was sin in me.”
“Being broken to the core has been a continuous prayer for me. Otherwise my stone heart will hurt someone else that does not deserve to be hurt. Jesus had shown me my resentment against my parents. As I went to their grave, Jesus begin to say, ‘If they hadn’t taken you to Jesus at an early age, you wouldn’t be where you are now.’ I felt all the bitterness, anger, and hatred leave. How gracious is our Savior!” Thomas Cochran

Sick and antisemitic. Jesus said his teachings were not his own so whose were they? They were Father Gods teachings given to Moses. Rev 22 says here are the saints who have faith in Jesus AND keep the commandments of God.

NO amount of keeping the commandments will save you. You are a sinner, fully guilty in the eyes of the Almighty.
” For whosoever shall keep the whole law, and yet offend in one point, he is guilty of all.” James 2:10
ALL of your righteousnesses are “as filthy rags” in the eyes of a holy God (Isaiah 64:6).
Do you claim to be born again? Turning people back under the law is antichrist. Read Galatians. But first, “Ye must be born again” says Jesus (John 3:3, 7).
“For Christ is THE END of the law for righteousness to every one that believeth.” Romans 10:4
“Knowing that a man is not justified by the works of the law, but by the faith of Jesus Christ, even we have believed in Jesus Christ, that we might be justified by the faith of Christ, and not by the works of the law: for by the works of the law shall no flesh be justified.” Galatians 2:16

TORAH KEEPING DEVILS BLASTED – REPENT NOW.
“If you live under the law you live in religion and it’s all about self. You will strive to make yourself better. Those of us who are saved by the blood of Christ live under grace. We strive to be more like Jesus. As we daily lay down our lives at the cross and follow Christ.” Karen Cochran
Those who pretend in futility to make self better have never repented and are not born again. Law-keepers, Torah keepers are delusional and self-righteous, filled with pride. Hell bound. They are antichrists who say “I don’t need Jesus or His perfect sacrifice! I can do this myself!” They are fools and under the spirit of witchcraft (Galatians 2:21; 3:1-3).
