Full Counsel Revelation of the King of all Kings

What False Teachers Won’t Tell You

The apostle Paul declared to the Ephesian “overseers” the full “counsel of God,” and for “three years ceased not to WARN every one night and day with tears” (Acts 20:28-32). He was intense with holy jealousy for their continued spiritual welfare. The inspired and vigilant apostle prophetically charged these leaders to “watch,” because “grievous wolves” FROM WITHIN were going to “arise” and distort the original Gospel. This warning is in effect for the New Testament period, that is, until Jesus Christ returns. As the only antidote to doctrines of devils and deceivers, Paul committed the Ephesian elders to “the word” (Acts 20:32).

Jesus told religious leaders that the proof of their relationship with God was their adherence to His words (Jn. 7:16-19; 8:47; 18:37; Is. 8:20). The apostle whom Jesus loved had no greater joy than when those he was overseeing walked in God’s truth (3 John 4). Tragically though, the heart of God revealed in His written Word, is rather foreign to many leaders in the Body of Christ today. They have consequently been deceived in their hearts, and misleading in their teachings. Because they do not possess the fear of God, these blinded men are not obeying God’s commands to “Study to shew thyself approved unto God,” “Preach the word…” and to “Feed the church of God” (2 Tim. 2:15; 4:2; Acts 20:28). They have omitted to give themselves “continually to prayer, and to the ministry of the word” and are therefore blinded (Acts 6:4; Ps. 119:105). As was foretold by Amos the prophet, this failure has caused “A famine in the land…of hearing the words of the Lord” (Amos 8:11).

While congregating, countless believers are placed on an involuntarily truth-fast because of the folly of many leaders. Today, conditions are as they were in the days of Hosea the prophet:

“For the Lord hath a controversy (dispute) with the inhabitants of the land, because there is no truth, nor mercy, nor knowledge of God in the land…My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge: because thou hast rejected knowledge, I will also reject thee, that thou shalt be no priest to me: seeing thou hast forgotten the law of thy God, I will also forget thy children (people; future).” Hosea 4:1, 6

The gross failure in the personal lives of many of our shepherds has turned them over to deceiving spirits which have blown various winds of error into their destitute vessels. Tragically, these blinded leaders have misplaced loyalties and teachings. What is transpiring in epidemic proportion in Christendom under the leadership of morally spineless pastors is frightening. Divine substance is absent from their lives. Many of them are not strengthened by God’s Spirit and Word (Eph. 3:16,20). Their empty messages and lack of spiritual power are telling! Regrettably, only a few are truly crucified with Christ, thus living in resurrection power. In the absence of God’s truth, error is afforded ample place. Because many have forsaken the Word of God and prayer, they have been overtaken by falsehood. They have “departed from the faith.” By their neglect they have become dwelling places for “doctrines of devils” (1 Timothy 4:1).

The superior, vast glory of the Son of God is captured well by Phillip Schaff when he writes:

“And yet this Jesus of Nazareth, without money and arms, conquered more millions than Alexander, Caesar, Mohammed, and Napoleon; without science and learning, He shed more light on things human and divine than all philosophers and scholars combined; without the eloquence of schools, He spoke such words of life as were never spoken before or since, and produced effects which lie beyond the reach of any orator or poet; without writing a single line, He set more pens in motion, and furnished themes for more sermons, orations, discussions, learned volumes, works of art, and sweet songs of praise, than the whole army of great men of ancient and modern times. Born in a manger, and crucified as a malefactor, He now controls the destinies of the civilized world, and rules a spiritual empire which embraces one-third of the inhabitants of the globe. There never was in this world a life so unpretending, modest, and lowly in its outward form and condition, and yet producing such extraordinary effects upon all ages, nations, and classes of men. The annals of history furnish no other example of such complete and astounding success, in spite of the absence of those material, social, literary, and artistic powers and influences which are indispensable to success for a mere man. Christ stands, in this respect also, solitary and alone among all the heroes of history, and presents to us an insolvable problem, unless we admit Him to be more than man, even the eternal … God.” Phillip Schaff, The Person of Christ, p. 40-41

Embarking on the study of this precious, divine Savior with whom we have to do, is by far the most important undertaking of the disciple. In fact, as our LORD Jesus inferred, any person led by the Holy Spirit, will come to this truth – “… he (the Holy Spirit) will guide you into all truth … He shall glorify me: for he shall receive of mine, and shall shew it unto you” (John 16:13-14).

On the ministry site, the category titled “Christology” contains engaging biblical truth concerning the marvelous, matchless Son of God. It is clearly the most important category on the ministry site and most importantly, in God’s Word. If in all our getting and even the study of Scripture, we miss this humble, lowly Lamb, the soon to return King of all kings, we have missed all! Whatever you do, study Christ and allow Him to build in you His revelation of who He is. As we seek and see His face, the veil that darkens our understanding shall be rolled back and Christ shall begin to appear on center stage of our hearts (2 Corinthians 3:14-16; 2 Peter 1:19-21). No life that experiences the Christ, the Son of the living God, can be unchanged.

We will know when maturity is beginning to take place in our lives when we cease coming to the LORD only for what He can do for us and begin seeking to “know him,” which is the very chief purpose and reason for which He created us (John 17:3; Philippians 3:10).

If you were asked to give just 3 verses that prove that Jesus Christ is divine, would you be able to produce and quote those verses and references? If not, your knowledge of Christ is deficient beloved. Seek Him. Study Him. Please allow me to encourage you to go through every post on this category – not all at once, yet perhaps methodically. Your knowledge and study of Christ will be vastly increased, establishing your life in Him. | Christology (the study of Christ)

JESUS CHRIST IS THE WORD OF THE FATHER WHOM HE SENT IN THE FULNESS OF TIME, PERFECTLY ACCORDING TO THE HUNDREDS OF PROPHECIES WHICH PRECEDED HIM, AND FOR HIS PEOPLE (JOHN 1: REVELATION 19:3, ETC.).

“In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.” John 1:1

“And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth.” John 1:14

“That which was from the beginning, which we have heard, which we have seen with our eyes, which we have looked upon, and our hands have handled, of the Word of life; ” 1 John 1:1

“For there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost: and these three are one.” 1 John 5:7

“Who bare record of the word of God, and of the testimony of Jesus Christ, and of all things that he saw.” Revelation 1:2

The message of “the word of God” is “the testimony of Jesus Christ.”

“And he was clothed with a vesture dipped in blood: and his name is called The Word of God.” Revelation 19:13

The entrance of this knowledge of the living Word of God Himself, should cause us to stop and begin to ponder just how we are being led in the gatherings we individually participate. Based on how Christ is lifted up or neglected, we can discern if those gatherings are truly glorifying Him who came and bled to redeem us. | Colossal Colossians

Seems to this disciple that very little time or energy is ever spend on the study of Jesus Christ. He is shunned and set aside for self-serving promises for our own selfish coping and getting along. Am I missing something?

Make no mistake, when a person or organization makes light of the living and written Word of God, he is then turned over by God to the enemy to be deceived and ultimately destroyed (Proverbs 13:13). Consider this critical spiritual truth:

“And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved. And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie: That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness.” 2 Thessalonians 2:10-12

The numerous pulpit teachings which scream for want of Biblical content and depth, meet with no resistance in many parts of the church and can be linked directly to Satan’s intensifying plan against the work of God in the earth (Rev. 12:12). The one who will keep his soul to the end must realize that the full-fledged scheme of the enemy is to distort or withhold the true image of God through men, by adding to and subtracting from God’s initial account – written record – of Himself. To beguile, the enemy must alter the original content of God’s Word and change the emphasis. (see Gen. 2:17,3:4) Beware, Satan’s assault comes in cleverly disguised packages. Jesus cautioned:

“Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ravening (devouring; extortioning) wolves.” Matthew 7:15

Paul further alerts us to the plaguing proportions of fraudulent undercurrent in ministry when he states:

“For we are not as MANY, which corrupt (pervert) the word of God.” 2 Corinthians 2:17

Note here that the Holy Spirit, through the pen of Paul, uttered that there were already “many” in the ministry perverting the Word of God. If this was occurring in the first century church, just think for a moment of the time (20 centuries) that the enemy has had to twist minds and propagate error since then, hence you might readily conclude that our day will be more treacherous than Paul’s. Is there not a cause to sound the alarm for – due to the pillaging of the image of the Almighty in the hearts of His people, because we have coarsely neglected His Word?! Do we really know Jesus Christ? Is He being revealed in our hearts? Line upon line, precept upon precept through His Word? (See Isaiah 28:9-10)

The disciple of Jesus must tend with vigilance to the safe keeping of his heart and mind. He must set and keep his eyes upon the Word of God (Prov. 4:20-22).

“KEEP (guard) thy heart with all diligence; for out of it are the issues of life.” Proverbs 4:23

The true believer must be mindful of his enemy’s tactics and brood constantly over his blood-redeemed soul, ready to smite with holy vengeance all seeds that would corrupt pure doctrine (2 Corinthians 10:5).

Since words paint pictures upon the canvas of our minds and hearts, we should be selective as to what we allow our minds to feed upon. For example, it is imperative that we refuse those teachers who conveniently avoid Jesus’ message to all men who would truly follow Him. Christ said that all who would be His must “deny himself, and take up his cross daily, and follow me” (Luke 9:23-24). Instead, false leaders pander to fleshly lusts (Romans 1:18-32;16:17-18; Phil. 3:18-21; 1 Tim. 6:3-5; 2 Tim. 4:1-4).

“CEASE, my son, to hear the instruction that causeth to err from the words of knowledge.” Proverbs 19:27

O what a shameful and vain perplexity that we are daily, on radio, TV, and from pulpits, pummeled with such hollow messages void of divine wealth from the Holy Scriptures! How tragic in light of 2 Timothy 3:16-4:4!!!

In early America, God-fearing men preached fiery messages about the blazing arrows of God’s holy judgment which were aimed at the wicked and soon to be drunken with the blood of all unrepentant sinners (Psalms 7). Like the preaching of Jesus Christ and John the Baptist, in earlier days, hell was declared boldly to be the eternal judgment of the Almighty upon the wicked. Multitudes hastened to repentance in the fear of God as their iniquity was exposed under the holy lamp of God’s law (Gal. 3:24). Why so little true repentance now? Simple! Our leaders have conveniently defaulted in declaring the full counsel of God, namely the law of God which brings sinners to Christ! (See Galatians 3:24; 1 Timothy 1:7-11) Powder-puff pulpiteers have traded the preaching of the law and the cross for persecution-proof, ear-tickling sermonettes conducive to the acceptance of men, while they build their own kingdoms. This is the spirit of antichrist. In their sin-patronizing messages there is no convicting, eternal substance present to change lives! The apostle Paul said that these deceivers are “the enemies of the cross of Christ: Whose end is destruction, whose god is their belly (sinful appetites), and whose glory is in their shame, who mind earthly things” (Phil. 3:18-19.)

In the American church we have created a god who is a love-only deity who somewhere along the way lost his justice and judgment attributes. We are not beholding “the goodness AND severity of God,” only the goodness, and therefore have created in the minds of God’s people the image of a false god (Exodus 20:3-4; Proverbs 11:1). According to these abominable omissions, the God of holy wrath no longer exists! This of course, is in blatant denial of Scripture (Mal 3:6; Matt. 10:28; Luke 12:5; Acts 5:1-11; Rom 1:18-20; 1 Cor. 10; Rev 20:10-15).

When asked to comment on Christianity in America, in an article printed in the Dallas Morning News, Richard Owen Rodgers, president of International Awakening Ministries, stated;

“We’re living in a biblically illiterate society…I would say it has occurred because the church has become increasingly careless over the last 40 years or so in proclamation. It’s dealt more with surface issues than solid biblical truths.”

Let it be known that deceivers are only given place by people, namely those who have itching ears, that is, they desire to hear the message that justifies their unpurged sin.

There seems to be 2 Biblical causes for epidemic deception:

1) False Shepherds in places of leadership in the Body of Christ. See Jer. 23; Is. 9:16; 56:10-12; Ez 34; Matt. 7:16-23; Phil. 3:17-19; 1 John 4:1; Rom. 16:17-18….

2) People who claim to be or start out to be of God, then, in their hearts, turn from Him. See Romans 1:21-32; 2 Thessalonians 2:9-12; 2 Timothy 4:3…

“Behold, the days come, saith the Lord God, that I will send a famine in the land, not a famine of bread, nor a thirst for water, but of hearing the words of the Lord.” Amos 8:11

The God-fearing need see the extreme necessity for line upon line, precept upon precept Biblical teaching revealing the true image of the One God who is the Maker and Sustainer of all life. We, the current administration, have fallen down on the job. We have not upheld, as His faithful stewards, the oracles that He left to us. We have tolerated the desecration of the holy through our woeful neglect of His “express image” (Heb. 1:3), unveiled in Scripture. We must repent. In God we will find the unction to begin a full-scale study and declaration of His holy Word, just as that great apostle did (Acts 20:20,27).

We should daily thank God, pray for, and strengthen the genuine men and women of God, who are at war for the souls of men – “Holding forth the word of life” (Phil. 2:16). We must realize that Jesus warned of multitudes of deceivers. He said:

“MANY false prophets shall rise, and shall deceive MANY.” Matthew 24:11

We’ve been invaded from within! There are numerous false prophets peddling distorted teachings that are deceiving the undiscerning. False doctrines are those teachings which misrepresent God. They offer something other than what He contextually said about Himself in His Word. This is why we must learn the truth and be on guard at all times! In contrast to the counterfeit, God’s true ministers soundly and relentlessly proclaim the incomparable Christ, just as He is revealed in the original account. Let it be known though, that clever deceivers who distort the truth, will not be identified nor escaped by the idolater (one who has something else that is more important than God in his life). See 1 Cor. 11:19. However, God does reward the diligent, wholehearted seeker, with His discernment (Matt. 7:15,20; 2 Timothy 2:15; Heb. 5:14; 11:6; Rev. 3:18).

All must be put to the Biblical acid test (1 Jn 4:1-6). The believer must never judge messages or ministers by what he feels is right or wrong, but by what God’s Word says! Make not the fatal mistake of judging ministers against other modern day ministers (2 Cor. 10:12-18). The decline from the Biblical standard is so great, that this method must be deemed altogether unreliable (1 Timothy 3:1-7; Titus 1:6-8). Where are the God-fearing men of faith in these last days?

The only safeguard against the deceitful trickeries and omissions, which are sent to move you away from Jesus, is to know Him through the holy Scriptures. Exclusively through the written Word, and God the Holy Spirit, is the perfect image of the Divine going to be etched upon the heart of the fervent seeker. If one is going to intimately know Christ, he must peer at Him continually, through the window of His written Word (Jn. 5:39; James 1:25). Jesus said;

“Search the scriptures…for they are they which testify of me.” John 5:39

THE DIVINE PERSON OF JESUS CHRIST IS THE GRAND SUBJECT OF ALL SCRIPTURE. JESUS TOLD US CLEARLY THAT HE IS THE SACRED SUBSTANCE OF ALL OF HOLY SCRIPTURE. HE SAID: “AND BEGINNING AT MOSES AND ALL THE PROPHETS (THE ENTIRE OT SCRIPTURES), HE EXPOUNDED UNTO THEM IN ALL THE SCRIPTURES THE THINGS CONCERNING HIMSELF” (LUKE 24:29). ANY PERSON OR LEADER OR ORGANIZATION THAT IS MERELY PICKING OUT PROMISES TO CLAIM FOR THEIR OWN SELF-SERVING BENEFIT, ARE COUNTERFEIT. WHEN JESUS CHRIST IS NOT LITERALLY BEING UPHELD, WORSHIPPED, AND ADORED, THE DEVIL HAS CONQUERED! ALL WHO TRULY KNOW HIM, UPHOLD HIM ALONE AS THE REIGNING NAIL-SCARRED, RISEN LORD AND SAVIOR! He is the precious “first love” of their lives (COLOSSIANS 2:8-10, 18-19; Revelation 2:4-5).

Friend, what know ye of Jesus, from the Bible, His Word? Who do you say that He is? Is your image of Jesus according to His Holy Word? Our Savior has chosen to reveal Himself to His people through His words and He will only be correctly learned through this account He gave us of Himself (Psalms 40:7; 119:105; John 5:39-40; 2 Timothy 3:16-17; 2 Peter 1:19-21, etc.).

“According as his divine power hath given unto us ALL things that pertain unto life and godliness, through the knowledge of him that hath called us to glory and virtue: Whereby are given unto us exceeding great and precious promises: that by these ye might be partakers of the divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust … We have also a more sure word of prophecy; whereunto ye do well that ye take heed, as unto a light that shineth in a dark place, until the day dawn, and the day star (the image of Jesus Christ) arise in your hearts. 20 Knowing this first, that no prophecy of the scripture is of any private interpretation. 21 For the prophecy came not in old time by the will of man: but holy men of God spake as they were moved by the Holy Ghost.” 2 Peter 1:3-4, 19-21

STOP for a moment and think with me …. There would be no Bible, no need for men to read God’s Word, if JESUS were not the central Theme of the whole Bible. Why? That would mean God would have terminated His creation project, His history with mankind, and so there would have been no need to redeem mankind by the sacrifice of His only begotten Son. But God, who “is love,” instituted His plan to redeem fallen man as soon as man sinned and fell (Genesis 3:15; John 3:16-17; 1 John 4:8, 16, etc.). There would be no need for a Bible for fallen man to read and find out about the Savior if God had ended the human race, right? Yet, He has carried out and is carrying out His divine plan of reconciliation, communicating through His Word, of which His only begotten Son, the eternal Word, is the Grand Subject, the Sacred Substance of the Scriptures (John 5:39-40; 2 Peter 1:19-21, etc.).

Search the scriptures; for in them ye think ye have eternal life: and they are they which testify of me. 40 And ye will not come to me, that ye might have life.” John 5:39-40

The Holy Scriptures have as their Grand Subject the Son of God. Like the pharisees, the religionist of His day, those who hear it and don’t repent, coming to Jesus, forfeit the blessing of His salvation.

In His message to us, the Lord reveals Himself, that we may know Him in an ever-deepening way, by the Holy Spirit and His Word. When His image is inscribed upon the canvas of our hearts through the impassioned study of His holy oracles, we will be drawn to and protected by Him, and consequently, not vulnerable to, but discerning, of the Satanic distortions at work in our midst (2 Tim 3:16,17; Matt.5:6; 1 Pet. 2:2).

“Study to show thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.” 2 Timothy 2:15

Jesus Paid it All [podcast]


by the sacrifice of himself

“Now once in the end of the world hath he appeared to put away sin by the sacrifice of himself.” Hebrews 9:26

“ALL have sinned” against our God and so our own good works do not atone for our sins (Isaiah 64:6; Romans 3:10, 23; Ephesians 2:8-9, etc.). ONLY Jesus could and did do that for us – make the atonement that brings us back to God.  

The LORD is “Holy, holy, holy” and therefore takes sin seriously (Isaiah 6:3; Revelation 4:8). The coming of Jesus to die on that cross reveals how loving God is and how personal He takes sin. The LORD therefore “appeared to put away sin by the sacrifice of himself.” The Son of God came in person to pay the full debt for the sin of mankind – “It is finished” which means paid in full (John 19:30).

Jesus “obtained eternal redemption for us” “by his own blood.”

“Neither by the blood of goats and calves, but BY HIS OWN BLOOD he entered in once into the holy place, having obtained eternal redemption for us.” Hebrews 9:12

“And from Jesus Christ, who is the faithful witness, and the first begotten of the dead, and the prince of the kings of the earth. Unto him that loved us, and washed us from our sins IN HIS OWN BLOOD,” Revelation 1:5

“WHEN HE HAD BY HIMSELF purged our sins, sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on high.” Hebrews 1:3 

ALL “BY HIMSELF” Jesus redeemed us, bought, brought us back to God by the shedding of His precious blood on that cross. Jesus needed no help: He alone was sufficient to propitiate, expiate, atone for the sins of mankind.

Jesus, I thank You for shedding Your precious blood for me and washing me afresh right now. I love You LORD Jesus!

The LORD desires to take His people “from glory to glory.” Think about that.

“But we all, with open face beholding as in a glass the glory of the Lord, are changed into the same image from glory to glory, even as by the Spirit of the Lord.” 2 Corinthians 3:18 

As we seek and behold the face of our LORD, He will take us “from glory to glory” – deeper into the revelation of who He is, His eternal plan, and the inestimable blessings of the covenant He secured and ratified in His own precious blood (Matthew 26:28).

Jesus ALL “BY HIMSELF purged our sins” … Christ single handedly paid the sin debt with His perfect sacrifice on that cross – “It is finished” means paid in full (John 19:30).

“What the judiazers miss is that Jesus Fulfilled the Law at the Cross….Jesus being the perfect sacrifice was the Fulfilment.” Byron Wilson

“THE Lamb of God” has come and died, was buried, and raised again from the dead to fully justify His people, having redeemed them by the blood of his cross (Colossians 1:20)

“The next day John seeth Jesus coming unto him, and saith, Behold the Lamb of God, which taketh away the sin of the world.” John 1:29

Christ is our passover (1 Corinthians 5:7-8). The passover of the OT was a mere shadow of what Christ is the substance, the solution. The passover, the sprinkling of the blood of sacrificed lambs by the people of God was prophetic of the coming Messiah which merely prefigured what He has come and already did – shed His precious blood on that cross to redeem us from our sins (Exodus 12; 2 Corinthians 5:19-21; 1 Peter 1:15-16; 3:18). The doorposts were sprinkled/brushed with sacrificial animal blood in the shape of a cross which was a prophetic foreshadowing, prefiguring of our LORD Jesus Christ who was to come and has now come to die on that cross (Exodus 12:22-23). “It is finished” means paid in full (John 19:30). The price for your sins has been paid in full. Read Hebrews 8-10 several times prayerfully.

Why would anyone go to eternal damnation in hell when Jesus paid the full price for their sin, to bring them to Heaven? Unbelief.

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.

Biblical Justification

Dear law-keeper, Torah-keeper: Tell us all how NEW Testament saints are not justified by Christ’s sacrifice…. Tell us how we must help God out to justify us …. when the Bible declares that ALL of our own righteousnesses are as filthy rags (Isaiah 64:6).

ANY person who adds anything to salvation except Christ, is antichrist! Salvation is Jesus Christ plus nothing.

“God, who at sundry times and in divers manners spake in time past unto the fathers by the prophets, 2 Hath in these last days spoken unto us by his Son, whom he hath appointed heir of all things, by whom also he made the worlds; 3 Who being the brightness of his glory, and the express image of his person, and upholding all things by the word of his power, WHEN HE HAD BY HIMSELF purged our sins, sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on high;” Hebrews 1:1-3 

Jesus sealed the New Covenant in His own blood when He died on the cross.

“For this is my blood of the new testament, which is shed for many for the remission of sins.” Matthew 26:28

Moses vs Jesus …. Every person must choose – John 1:17.

“For the law was given by Moses, but grace and truth came by Jesus Christ.” John 1:17

2 Corinthians 3 and Hebrews 8-10 contrast the infinitely superior NEW Covenant with the old covenant it replaced, superseded. Amazing! Now check out John 1:17. Moses = OLD. Jesus Christ = NEW!

Shall we be under Moses, the law, or Christ, the Gospel? Do you want the bondage of the law or the freedom of Christ, the only One to ever keep the whole law perfectly – before He nailed it to the cross and took is away?! (Colossians 2:14-19)

“Now therefore why tempt ye God, to put a yoke (the law) upon the neck of the disciples, which neither our fathers nor we were able to bear?” Acts 15:10

“Stand fast therefore in the liberty wherewith Christ hath made us free, and be not entangled again with the yoke of bondage (the law).” Galatians 5:1

Of this distinction between Moses and Jesus, law and grace, one disciple writes:

“The yoke of Moses’ law is heavy and oppressive.  The yoke of the cross is easy and light.  Matt 11:28-30.  Why?  The law cannot give one resurrection life.  Rom 7:10.  The cross, through faith, confers resurrection life and power on the recipient.  The cross is on every page of the Bible either in type and shadow (OT) or reality (NT).

The cross and resurrection with Christ (grace) is totally antithetical to law/tradition/external observances/human effort.  It astounding to see how much of the New Testament is devoted to teaching the difference in the two.  Identifying Sin (behavioral management) and its consequences is addressed far far less.

Why?  Because righteous living is a spontaneous byproduct of resurrection life and power.  Without resurrection, the law multiplies the number of sins committed.  Rom 5:20; 7:5″

If you will be planted deep into Christ, your Christology, your study of, your personal knowledge of Christ must be deep, not shallow (Colossians 2:6-10).

The Book of Hebrews!

Reading the book of Hebrews, pouring over it perhaps several times, will do wonders for your understanding and lay the foundation in New Covenant truth. In no other book of the Bible is the comparison, the contrast of the Old and New Covenants so poignantly displayed.

“But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.” Hebrews 11:6

GOD values our FAITH in HIM, most (Hebrews 11:6). Faith is a Gospel essential. It is rebellion to try to merit or do something GOD alone can and did do – paying the full, the whole, the entire, the perfect price for our sins! Christ! His cross! Faith connects us with God. Faith in Christ, His perfect sacrifice for us, appropriates His blessed salvation and all of His many benefits to those who are His. FAITH not works! (Ephesians 2:8-9)

“For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: 9 Not of works, lest any man should boast. 10 For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them.” Ephesians 2:8-10 

Just because Jesus paid it all does not mean that Jesus doesn’t have stated conditions for receiving His gift of salvation. Repentance and faith are those conditions and true repentance and faith will be demonstrated, proved by who we love which is who we obey! (Matthew 3:7-10; Luke 9:23-24; 14:27, 33; 17:33; John 14:15; 15:14; Romans 6; James 2; 1 John 2:3-6, etc.). – “we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works…” (Ephesians 2:8-10)

“Now to him that worketh is the reward not reckoned of grace, but of debt. 5 But to him that worketh not, but believeth on him that justifieth the ungodly, his faith is counted for righteousness.” Romans 4:4-5

Was Christ’s sacrifice perfect? What it enough? Yes or no?

One MUST leave Christ, to depart from the only Savior, to go back to law-keeping. Such a person has denied Christ, has “fallen from grace” – is under a spirit of witchcraft, and is no longer saved (Galatians 3:3; 5:4).

The Galatia believers allowed themselves to be sucked in, to be seduced, and the result was that they fell from saving grace (Galatians 3:1-3; 5:4). They were drawn away from saving grace in Christ to law-keeping and then fell away.

Memory Verse

“Stand fast therefore in the liberty wherewith Christ hath made us free, and be not entangled again with the yoke of bondage.” Galatians 5:1

God desires that the hearts of His people be “with grace.”

“Be not carried about with divers and strange doctrines. For it is a good thing that the heart be established with grace; not with meats, which have not profited them that have been occupied therein.” Hebrews 13:9

Hebrews 8-10 contrasts the infinitely inferior Old Covenant with the infinitely superior New Covenant which was ratified in the very blood of Jesus Christ, which was merely foreshadowed under the Old Testament.

Redemption Through Christ’s Perfect Blood Sacrifice 

None of us is perfect. We have “ALL sinned” against our Maker (Romans 3:10, 23). And that makes us fully guilty of breaking the whole law and worthy of divine judgment (James 2:10). Only Jesus was perfect in keeping the whole law. He then nailed it to the cross and “took it out of the way.” (Colossians 2:14-19) This is the testimony, the message of Holy Scripture.

Read Romans 3-5 repeatedly.

Romans 10:4 – the law is over for righteousness. “The end.”

“For Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to every one that believeth.” Romans 10:4

WHO is “the end of the law for righteousness”? “CHRIST”! (Romans 10:4)

1. The Ten commandments are the Old Covenant: Ex 34:27-28
2. The Old Covenant was abolished: Heb 8:13
3. The Ten Commandments are therefore abolished! “For righteousness” (Romans 10:4)

One disciple writes: “The law causes people to sin, people who would not otherwise have sinned without the law. Rom 5:20 (“causes transgressions to INCREASE, not decrease); 7:5 (the motions of sins which are caused by the law); all of Rom 7 which says the apart from the law sin is dead. The law revived sin in Paul’s life when it was formerly dormant. Moses’ law is a slavery and a curse which Jesus died to free us from. Rom 8:2; Gal 3:10-13. The law is the enemy of the Christian just as much as Sin and Satan are. The law kills. 2 Corinthians 3:4-7 and is a ministry of condemnation and death. 2 Cor 3. The law killed Jesus. Jn 19:7”

The keeping of a certain day, circumcision, or reenacting Jewish festivals that merely foreshadowed Him who has now come for all people, has no value. For the Jews (not NT Christians), those things were instituted and were mere “shadows” pointing to Christ Himself before He came, but now He has ALREADY COME. He completed His work perfectly and put away the law for righteousness and replaced that Old Covenant with His new covenant which is based upon better promises (Hebrew 7-10; Colossians 2:14-17; Galatians 4:1-10). This is a basic truth of New Testament Christianity and if the saint doesn’t get this in their heart, he can be vulnerable to be deceived by judaizers as we are so often specifically warned concerning.

YOU MUST CHOOSE: If you are going to be a law-keeper, you’d better not miss even one jot or tittle of the law or you are guilty of breaking it all.

“For whosoever shall keep the whole law, and yet offend in one point, he is guilty of all.” James 2:10

Or, you could repent and trust Christ who is the only One to perfectly keep the law. Then He nailed it to the cross and took it away for righteousness (Colossians 2:14-19).

DO you realize that if you are a law-keeper, you are an antichrist? You have openly denied Christ, denied His perfect sacrifice and are foolishly attempting to keep the law perfectly instead of repenting and trusting the only One who ever kept the law perfectly and then nailed it to the cross, taking it away for righteousness (Romans 10:4 Colossians 2:14-19).

ANY person trying to keep the law to be justified in God’s eyes has no clue who the Son of God is nor why He came. They are lost. This includes all sabbath-keeping idolaters and Jewish feast keepers, etc.

Are you seeking to earn your salvation, your place with God? Or, are you trusting Christ, the only Mediator between you and God? (1 Timothy 2:5)

Obeying God after He saves us is the expression of our love for Him and not that which justifies us. HE alone justifies us. Only God Himself can justify a man and yet He set conditions. And yes, those who know Him will definitely obey Him and yet their obedience doesn’t justify them, God alone can do that. Memorize Romans 4:4-5 today.

Resting in God’s Love

Heather Hunter McKowen writes:

“Romans 7 says: ‘For sin, taking occasion by the commandment, deceived me, and by it slew me. 12 Wherefore the law is holy, and the commandment holy, and just, and good.”

The law reveals it is man who is full of sin, dead and in need of a Savior. The law is still a school master for those who have yet to come to the faith.

Galatians 3:

“Is the law then against the promises of God? God forbid: for if there had been a law given which could have given life, verily righteousness should have been by the law. 22 But the scripture hath concluded all under sin, that the promise by faith of Jesus Christ might be given to them that believe. 23 But before faith came, we were kept under the law, shut up unto the faith which should afterwards be revealed. 24 Wherefore the law was our schoolmaster to bring us unto Christ, that we might be justified by faith. 25 But after that faith is come, we are no longer under a schoolmaster.” Galatians 3:21-25

Was Jesus the “One and Only Son” OR the “Only Begotten Son”? [podcast]


Why was the virgin birth of Jesus Christ an absolute necessity, essential?

WHAT does the Bible word “begotten” mean to salvation? Everything! Remove it and there is no salvation and God lied!

AND you still don’t think the changes made by satan’s agents in the new fake “bible” versions doesn’t change essential doctrine? You better think again.

What are the 2 central, essential reasons Jesus had to be born of a virgin – “begotten of the Father” in the womb of a virgin? (John 1:14)

  1. Because the Messiah had to be sinless in order to be the perfect sin offering to expiate the sins of fallen men (Hebrews 7:26; 1 John 2:22, etc.).
  2. In fulfillment of Messianic prophecy (Isaiah 7:14; Matthew 1:23).

“Begotten of the Father” is the only way the virgin birth could occur and the only way Jesus could be sinless (John 1:14).

One writer notes:

“The woman cannot transmit the sin nature to her offspring. The male DNA chromosome is the carrier of Sin that passes it down. Jesus could not be born to an earthly father.

Jesus had to partake (participate) in our plight (Heb 2:14) for us to participate in His resurrection, ascension and session. He was willing to take our sin condition in exchange for His victorious righteousness and glory. He came down to earth and even went under the earth to rescue us to the top of heaven. Eph 2:6.

Jesus demonstrated that it would never be by military might, control, threat, coercion, violence or killing that He would deliver us but only by becoming a helpless little embryo in the woman’s womb then a weak little baby lying in a filthy manger between the ass of ignorance and the ox of self-will. And then a carpenter.

The weakness of God is stronger than man. In the divine economy, power is perfected in weakness.”

John 3:16 compared:

King James Bible

“For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.”

NIV

“For God loved the world so much that he gave his one and only Son, so that everyone who believes in him will not perish but have eternal life.”

ESV

“For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life.”

NLT

“For God loved the world so much that he gave his one and only Son, so that everyone who believes in him will not perish but have eternal life.

To say Jesus Christ was “the one and only Son” of God contradicts Holy Scripture

Unlike the new “bibles”, the King James Bible uses “only BEGOTTEN Son” as is correctly translated from the Majority Manuscripts.

Jesus Christ is unique in all history in that He alone had a divine Father. He was begotten (generated) of Father God in the womb of a virgin. This miracle has never nor ever will happen again. a virgin conceived and bore the “only begotten son of God.”

From now on, when you hear someone quote that Jesus is “the one and only Son,” you will know they are quoting from one of the many fake news “bibles.”

In John 3:16, the Devil’s new “bibles” say “his one and only son” instead of the “only begotten Son” which is essential to the plan of God, the Messiah, the church, and the people of this world for whom Jesus died. Make no mistake: This is a frontal attack on our LORD and Savior by His arch enemy. First off, Jesus was not the “one and only son.” That is a contradiction. How could Jesus possibly be “the one and only son” when the Bible says – “Behold, what manner of love the Father hath bestowed upon us, that we should be called the sons of God…” (1 John 3:1)?

This is a robbing of the glory of God which is the work of none other than Satan himself. If Jesus weren’t the “only BEGOTTEN SON” then He wasn’t born of a virgin and isn’t the Messiah. Biblical truth 101 ! The Bible says that we, His people, are “the sons of God … Beloved, now are we the sons of God.” (1 John 3:1-2)

Webster’s 1828 Dictionary:

BEGOT’, BEGOT’TEN, Procreated; generated.

After Adam, only one human being in History was procreated, generated by the heavenly Father. Jesus. ALL other men, women, had an earthly father whose blood was contaminated by sin (Romans 5:12, etc.).

Hundreds of years before Jesus was born in Bethlehem, God’s prophet Isaiah foretold that the Messiah would be born of a “virgin.”

“Therefore the Lord himself shall give you a sign; Behold, a virgin shall conceive, and bear a son, and shall call his name Immanuel.” Isaiah 7:14

Jesus Christ, if not “the only begotten of the Father”, is not the Messiah and is a fraud. There could be no more essential doctrine to the Christian faith.

If Jesus is not God He’s not the Messiah. Jesus says: “if ye believe not that I am he, ye shall die in your sins.” (John 8:24 )

Isaiah told us that the Messiah would be born of a virgin, “begotten,” and the “mighty God” and “Immanuel”, “GOD with us.” (Isaiah 7:14; 9:6-7; Matthew 1:21-23)

What are the 2 central reasons Jesus had to be born of a virgin – “begotten of the Father” in the womb of a virgin? (See John 1:14.)

“And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth.” John 1:14

Only by being both deity and humanity could Jesus Christ bridge the sin-caused chasm that divided the two parties after the first man sinned (John 1:14; 1 Timothy 3:16).

“No man hath seen God at any time; the only begotten Son, which is in the bosom of the Father, he hath declared him.” John 1:18

The “spirit of antichrist” denies that Jesus came in the flesh which means He was born of a virgin, begotten of the Father, and therefore divine.

“Hereby know ye the Spirit of God: Every spirit that confesseth that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is of God: 3 And every spirit that confesseth not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is not of God: and this is that spirit of antichrist, whereof ye have heard that it should come; and even now already is it in the world.” 1 John 4:2-3 

Holy Scripture informs us that “God was manifest in the flesh” and that was only possible by way of the divine Father God who begot Him in the womb of a virgin. “Immanuel” means God with us (Matthew 1:21-23; 1 Timothy 3:16 etc.).

There cannot possibly be a perfect sacrifice without a virgin birth executed by divine operation.

One writer notes:

“The DNA/chromosomes of the Sin Nature (“Sin” Rom 5:12) I believe can only be passed down thru the male.  The woman cannot pass it down.  Therefore the woman could be impregnated by the Holy Spirit and the child, Jesus, did not receive from Mary a sin nature or flesh.  He was 100 % human but without a sin nature.  God with sinless skin on.  He maintained this state of sinless perfection all his life and had no sin nature until He drank and absorbed the cup of Sin right before He died.  He was “made sin” in order that we might get rid of sin and become the righteousness of God having received the life of God in this very real exchange that happens at the cross.  2 Cor 5:21.”

Jesus’ blood had of necessity to be sinless, and it was. This is exactly why He had to be begotten, generated by God the Father in the womb of a virgin – one who never knew a man:

“For the life of the flesh is in the blood: and I have given it to you upon the altar to make an atonement for your souls: for it is the blood that maketh an atonement for the soul.” Leviticus 17:11 

“And almost all things are by the law purged with blood; and without shedding of blood is no remission.” Hebrews 9:22

“The Blood”

“The Blood”

“The Blood”

“it is the blood that maketh an atonement for the soul.” (Leviticus 17:11) Say that out loud beloved of God.

Jesus Christ is God

Anyone who doesn’t believe that Jesus Christ was born of a virgin, begotten of the heavenly Father, and is divine, is a Christ-denying unbeliever and not saved.

Saints, let us return to the King James Bible and burn the enemy’s counterfeits. Check this out. Watch how the real Bible uses the phrase “the sons of God” referring to the people of God, the born again disciples of Jesus:
 
“But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the SONS OF GOD, even to them that believe on his name:” John 1:12
 
“For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the SONS OF GOD.” Romans 8:14
 
“For the earnest expectation of the creature waiteth for the manifestation of the SONS OF GOD.” Romans 8:19
 
“And because YE ARE SONS, God hath sent forth the Spirit of his Son into your hearts, crying, Abba, Father.” Galatians 4:6
 

“That ye may be blameless and harmless, the SONS OF GOD, without rebuke, in the midst of a crooked and perverse nation, among whom ye shine as lights in the world;” Philippians 2:15

The Only Begotten Son of God [podcast] | Fake News Bible Versions Exposed

God knew that wicked men, posing as His representatives, would appear throughout history to change His Word, as if it were a living, malable document. Not. This is why He told us He never changes and that His Word is “settled in heaven” and will never change by way of Him (Psalms 89:34; 119:89; Malachi 3:6; Mark 13:31, etc.). The LORD who “changeth not” specifically attached highest price tag, most severe punishment, to anyone who dare add to or take away from His words (Revelation 22:18-19). Satan himself is the one who influences wicked me to change God’s Word – “Satan cometh immediately, and taketh away the word.” (Mark 4:15). This description is not limited to and yet definitely applies to the “bibles” which are peddled by seminarian salesmen as being “easier to understand” and yet, these vile deceivers never mention how the content, the text of Scripture has been butchered.

For the above mentioned biblical reasons, we know of a certainty, that any person who participates in or justifies the changing of God’s Word, is of the devil (Proverbs 30:5-6; John 8:47, etc.). Beware.

Personally, I cannot endorse what are clearly Satan’s cheap subsitutes and counterfeits of God’s Word and therefore cannot recommend and definitely discourage any and all believers, not matter the maturity level, to read the King James Bible.

Jesus in Every Book of the Bible

First and foremost, God’s Word was written to reveal Christ.

The Bible is said to be “The only Book where the divine Author is present every time you read it.”

He’s divinely encoded and present on every page of His Word.

“And he said unto them, These are the words which I spake unto you, while I was yet with you, that all things must be fulfilled, which were written in the law of Moses, and in the prophets, and in the psalms, concerning me.” Luke 24:44 

Every book of the Bible is about the LORD Jesus, who is the central theme, the sacred substance of all of Holy Scripture. If we miss Him, we miss everything, we miss the grand subject and revelation of God’s Word.

“Search the scriptures; for in them ye think ye have eternal life: and they are they which testify of me. 40 And ye will not come to me, that ye might have life.” John 5:39-40

This makes it clear that we can “search the scriptures,” we can know them, and yet not know the Author.

They knew the Word of God but did not know the God of the Word. They made the choice not to “come to” Jesus thorugh His Word. They made it about themselves, not Jesus.

The Bible is one Book from one divine Author. The divisions are there to help us navigator His Word. – Old and New Testaments, chapters, verses, etc.

“Open thou mine eyes, that I may behold wondrous things out of thy law.” Psalms 119:18

The supreme and most important “wondrous” thing we are to behold in Holy Writ, is Jesus Christ.

Amen. Jesus Christ is King of all kings, LORD of all lords.

“Behold, he cometh with clouds; and every eye shall see him, and they also which pierced him: and all kindreds of the earth shall wail because of him. Even so, Amen. 8 I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the ending, saith the Lord, which is, and which was, and which is to come, the Almighty.” Revelation 1:7-8
