Sabbath and Law-Keeping Devils Exposed [podcast]
Was what Jesus did for us Enough? Or, did God Lie to Us?
There is no instruction – not one – to keep any sabbath for New Testament believers saved by grace…. except that JESUS is our Sabbath rest where rest in Him from law keeping. JESUS is the Sabbath rest we keep because He’s the only one to ever perfectly keep the law and then, what did He do? He nailed it to the cross and took it out of the way for righteousness! (Romans 10:4; Colossians 2:14-19) Run the judaizing devils off your social media wall by SHARING this post.
Jesus Himself is the Sabbath rest of His saints (Hebrews 4).
ALL who don’t keep Jesus as SABBATH are not saved – that is, all who are not resting in HIS perfect finished work are doomed. And, those who focus on, over emphasize a mere day prove clearly that they do not know, are not known of Christ – not born again and not in Christ’s kingdom.
Law keeping is made to sound superior but it’s pure false humility and damnable unbelief.
Keeping the LORD’s commandments doesn’t include law keeping or sabbath keeping to be righteous, justified. ANY person who teaches this heresy is an antichrist who has openly denied Christ’s perfect sacrifice was sufficient to completely justify His saints. Only heretical judaizers teach that NEW Testament believers, saved by GRACE, are still under the law (Romans 3:28; 10:4; Galatians 2:16). Judaizing Devils Busted!
“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
ANY person teaching that NEW Testament believers, saved by grace, are required to keep any certain day, is a judaizing wolf with no exception. This is “another gospel” which makes them “accursed.” (Galatians 1:6-9) There is no hint or instruction in the NEW Testament for such. Repent. RUN!
Did God somehow forget to tell us something He wanted us to know and do?
You are one deceived individual if you think your vain attempt to “keep Torah” is going to save you from hell. You are a sinner who has broken God’s law repeatedly and unless you repent and believe on the only ONE who ever kept the law perfectly, you are as sure for hell as if you were already there. If keeping Torah was enough, WHY O WHY did God bother to send His only begotten Son to die for us?! (Galatians 2:21)
Jesus kept the sabbath of the Old Testament and every single commandment of the OLD covenant…. in order to fulfill (expire) it when He died on the cross and “took it out of the away.” (Colossians 2:14-19) Christ is now the Sabbath rest of the NEW Testament saints who are saved by His grace. Nothing wrong with observing a day of rest and special worship, it’s actually wise to do so… yet making this something that New Testament believers must do to be right with God.
Are you saved by Jesus or by your own works? Did Jesus or any of His apostles ever once instruct even 1 NEW Testament saint, saved by grace, to keep any certain day/a sabbath? Not once. Beware of the SDA (Seventh Day Adventist cult) and other 7th day judaizing cults!
The SDA (seventh day adventist) church is an antichrist cult that worships a day instead of the Savior who bled so we could worship Him every day!!!
“We’re to keep EVERY DAY HOLY and SET APART for GOD!! EVERY DAY is my Sabbath as JESUS CHRIST has given me HIS REST and PEACE EVERY DAY.” A.
HEAVEN’S SALVATION is all about Heaven’s KING – Jesus – and not you or your foolish little sabbath-idolatry cult or your fake, pretended observance of the whole law! (James 2:10) Repent and believe on the LORD Jesus Christ, sinner – before it’s too late!
ARE YOU ASHAMED OF JESUS?
“Whosoever therefore shall be ashamed of me and of my words in this adulterous and sinful generation; of him also shall the Son of man be ashamed, when he cometh in the glory of his Father with the holy angels.” Mark 8:38
Those who preach the keeping of a sabbath never preach or honor Jesus – because they are counterfeits.
Jesus only observed the sabbath in order to fulfill all righteousness but HE never once told NEW Testament believers to keep any day. He nailed the law to the cross for righteousness! (Romans 10:4; Colossians 2:14-19) …. oh and if you are going to laughably earn and merit your own justification (impossible) then make sure you don’t forget the Thursday sabbaths of the Old, obsolete covenant. If you break even 1 part of the law you are guilty of breaking it all…. and hell awaits (James 2:10).
Are NEW Testament Christians Under Any Part of the Old Law? Do We Know the LORD or the Law?
—- EXCUSE ME …. JUST WHAT covenant do we live under? WHAT covenant do you live under? ….. DID JESUS complete His mission work or did He fail? … WHO ARE you looking to … Moses (mere man) or Jesus? Jesus told us that the old law came by Moses but saving grace and truth came but Him, the only Savior (John 1:17) The true, NEW Testament believer is “Looking unto Jesus,” not Moses … hello somebody! (Hebrews 12:1-2)… Please pass this DEVIL BLASTING message along to help others leave Moses and the Law and get saved by truly repenting and trusting Christ.
Justification by Christ or by Law-Keeping?
Attempting to keep even the smallest part of the old law for justification guarantees that you have “fallen from grace” and are lost – you have fallen away and are hell bound. – “if ye be circumcised, Christ shall profit you nothing.” (Galatians 5:2) If Christ, the only way and Savior profits you “NOTHING,” you are outside of the kingdom of God! You must choose between Christ and the old law. There is no neutral ground! Believing that you are required to keep the law clearly reveals that you are a vile unbeliever who has been possessed by “the spirit of antichrist” which says that Jesus never came in the flesh to fulfill His perfect redemption! (1 John 4:1-6) You have openly and brazenly called the Almighty a liar!
The “spirit of antichrist” under girds this whole system of unbelief in the Jewish Messiah (1 John 4:1-6) ……who “FINISHED” the work of redemption perfectly and “one time” on that cross (Hebrews 10:12). You are putting the old, obsolete law in place of the Messiah – Jesus Christ – who did away with the law. He “took it OUT of the way” because it was against us! (Colossians 2:14-19) He replace the old law with Himself whom you now reject. You don’t have the slightest clue as to the LORD, His kingdom, or the Messiah if you don’t understand this. The veil still covers the eyes of your understanding and will continue to keep you in the dark unless you turn your heart to the LORD in sincerity and in truth, repenting and forsaking your evil traditions (2 Corinthians 3:14-18).
“ONCE for All”
“By the which will we are sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all. … 12 But this man, after he had offered one sacrifice for sins for ever, sat down on the right hand of God.” Hebrews 10:10, 12
Stand Fast!
“Stand fast therefore in the liberty wherewith Christ hath made us free, and be not entangled again with the yoke of bondage. 2 Behold, I Paul say unto you, that if ye be circumcised, Christ shall profit you nothing. 3 For I testify again to every man that is circumcised, that he is a debtor to do the whole law. 4 Christ is become of no effect unto you, whosoever of you are justified by the law; ye are fallen from grace.” Galatians 5:1-4
Were you watching closely when you read the above passage? Notice in v2 that Paul tells us that if a person keeps one part of the law he is required to keep it all and that concerning such a law-keeper “Christ (the only Savior) shall profit you nothing.” The saving grace of Christ will not be applied to any person who is even dabbling with law-keeping. The believe in Christ must obey what Paul gave us in verse 1 here in this important passage – “Stand fast therefore in the liberty wherewith Christ hath made us free, and be not entangled again with the yoke of bondage.” The law brings the bondage Paul speaks of here – even a slight, seemingly innocent dabbling with it. The old law never set anyone free as long as it was in force – before it was made obsolete and replaced with the saving grace of Jesus Christ under the New Covenant. The law was merely “a schoolmaster to bring us TO CHRIST.” (Galatians 5:24) Paul made is clear in Romans 7 that the old law reveals just how sinful we are without the present saving mercy and grace of Jesus Christ which is only accessed “by faith” in the only One who ever perfectly kept the old law and then nailed it to the cross and “took it OUT of the way”! (Romans 3-5; Colossians 2:14-17).
The Messiah nailed the old law to the cross. Are you under law or saving grace? – Can’t be both – you must choose.
—-THE NEW Testament believer lives by faith and not by the law ….. “For as many as are of the works of the law are under the curse: for it is written, Cursed is every one that continueth not in all things which are written in the book of the law to do them. 11 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 3:10-11 …… Read Chapter 3 of Galatians.
Memorize Romans 10:4 (KJV) and specifically note the words “for righteousness.” Also, WHAT commandments? If they didn’t make it into the NEW Testament, they are obsolete and not required. In other words, Jesus says “IF ye love me, keep my commandments” (John 14:15) and yet Jesus never once commanded anyone to keep any certain day and neither did His apostles. When establishing what was “necessary” (essential to salvation), no sabbath was even mentioned (Acts 15)!
“Jesus kept the Sabbath even to the cross and then He gave up the ghost and said, “It is finished,” and that was the end of the Sabbath day because He became our Sabbath. Now it is time to rest. The law was fulfilled. Sorry, it is not a day, it is a person, and if you try to change that then you are making the work of the cross of none effect and you need to repent and come out. You are living a false gospel again. I rest my case, Selah!!” Carol Burke
Beware: The New Judaizers!
Now, instead of getting people circumcised to place them back under the old law, today, judaizers entice and reason unlearned people to get back under the law by over emphasizing keeping a certain sabbath that they insist must be kept to obey Jesus. Yet, the Son of God never once instructed any New Testament believer to keep any certain sabbath and neither did any of His holy apostles. In fact, Christ rebukd the wicked false teachers of His day when they badgered Him about the sabbath. The circumcisers who operated among the Galatians, have now taken up sabbath keeping. They are antichrists who deny that Jesus came in the flesh and fully satisfied the righteousness and claims of the old law and then nailed it to the cross and did away with it!
Idol Shaking Truth
AS SOON as you tamper with what the self-idolater is trusting – self – they come out viciously. You see, it’s all about THEM and THEIR keeping of a day or another part of the old, obsolete law – in which they vainly believe THEY are meriting God’s mercy. This my friends, is damnable unbelief and blasphemy. Nothing could be more sinful as they reject the sacrifice of the Son of God who alone accomplished redemption. These are glory-robbing devils. The Bible says “That NO flesh should glory in his presence. … He that glorieth, let him glory in the Lord.” (1 Corinthians 1:29, 31)
“Now to him that worketh (tries to merit divine mercy, favor) 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
IF you for a moment vainly think that you have any part in meriting divine grace and mercy which you do not in the least deserve, you are utterly deluded and have no clue as to what the Bible declares about sinful mankind – you. Let’s get a cursory clue:
- Outside of Christ, You are nothing but “wickedness” in the eyes of Him who is “Holy, holy, holy.” (Genesis 6:5; Isaiah 6:3; Revelation 4:8)
- “every imagination of the thoughts of his (your) heart” is “only evil continually.”(Genesis 6:5)
- You are utterly “corrupt” and your ways are “corrupted.” (Genesis 6:12)
- ALL of your supposed “righteousness” are as “filthy rags” (discarded menstrual clothes) in His holy eyes (Isaiah 64:6)
- Your heart us “deceitful ABOVE ALL things” and “desperately wicked.” (Jeremiah 17:9)
- You are unrighteous (Romans 3:10).
- There is “no good thing” at all in your except Christ – if He’s truly there (Romans 3:10-12; 7:18, 24).
- You have sinned and “come short of the glory God.” (Romans 3:23)
- You have violated a holy God and are worthy only of spiritual and eternal “death.”(Romans 6:23)
- You are a “wretch man” (Romans 7:24)
- You are “unprofitable,” full of “deceit” and “poison,” “cursing,” “bitterness,” bloodshed, “misery,” and no fear of God (Romans 3:12-19).
- Without the sheer mercy of God through Jesus Christ, you are “guilty before God.”(Romans 3:19)
- Outside of Christ’s merit, you are “dead in trespasses and sins,” a child of “disobedience,” full of the “lusts of our flesh, fulfilling the desires of the flesh and of the mind,” and are “by nature the children of wrath.” (Ephesians 2:1-3)
People who don’t understand what God has declared about fallen, sinful mankind, cannot possible appreciate the Savior, the one Messiah and are prone to vainly imagine that THEY are meriting their own way with God. Nothing could be further from the truth.
Out of His sheer mercy, when you deserved judgment and eternal misery, God found you – you didn’t find Him. – “Herein is love, not that we loved God, but that he loved us, and sent his Son to be the propitiation for our sins. … We love him, because he first loved us.” (1 John 4:10, 19)
Justification by Christ or by Your Own Inherent or Performed “Goodness”?
AS SOON as you tamper with what the self-idolater is trusting – self – they come out viciously. You see, it’s all about THEM and THEIR keeping of certain rules and being obedient or at least looking to mere men that they are clean. In this they vainly believe THEY are meriting God’s mercy in and of their own goodness and performance. This my friends, is an open rejection of Jesus Christ and damnable unbelief and blasphemy. Nothing could be more sinful as they reject the sacrifice of the Son of God who alone accomplished redemption. These are glory-robbing devils. The Bible says “That NO flesh should glory in his presence. … He that glorieth, let him glory in the Lord.” (1 Corinthians 1:29, 31)
“Now to him that worketh (tries to merit divine mercy, favor) 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
Think I am teaching lasciviousness? Better think again. Yet, it’s time to grow up into Christ in the full-counsel revelation of His Word. Being balanced requires that we understand these ABC’s of the original Gospel. Actually, legalism is addressed many more times in the New Testament than is lasciviousness. Romans, Galatians, Philippians 3, Colossians, Hebrews, etc.
IS IT “Finished” or Not?
Is what Jesus did on the cross enough or does God need our help?
Keeping the old law is not the aim of the believer in CHRIST – but rather following Christ by His saving grace and faith is (Eph. 2:8-9). Nothing could be clearer in the NEW Testament Scriptures. The old law was infinitely inferior and only showed us just how sinful we are (Rom. 7). It grant no ability to fulfill it which is evidenced in the biblical fact that “ALL have sinned” and ALL are “guilty before God.” (Rom. 3:10, 19, 23; 11:32, etc.). So, when the fulness of time was come, God sent forth His Son to replace the old inferior law (Gal. 4:4). John 1:17 says that the old law came by Moses ( a mere sinful man) but grace and truth came by the only begotten Son of God, Jesus Christ. God so loved the world that He gave the law of the only begotten Son? (John 3:16) You have to choose to believe that Christ fulfilled the law and nailed it to the cross and took it OUT OF THE WAY, OR call God a liar and to brazenly and openly deny Christ who said “It IS finished” or “paid in full.” (John 19:30) If we still need to try to keep the law to be righteous then Jesus Christ is a liar – and that’s exactly what you are guilty of calling the Son of God if you still think you are made righteous through keep any part of the old law. You have openly denied Christ and are an antichrist. – “Christ is THE END of the law for righteousness to everyone that BELIEVETH.” (Romans 10:4) The justified believer has said “10:4 good buddy” to the law and trusts only in Christ’s imputed righteousness (Romans 4). Otherwise you are a lost, hell bound soul who has openly rejected the only ONE who can save you. Those who are still, in any way, trying to keep ANY part of the law, vainly believing that makes them any more righteous and justified than Christ’s finished, perfect work, are antichrists. You have told the Almighty that His only begotten Son Jesus Christ is a fraud and you don’t need Him but rather you reject Him for your own righteousness which is by the law which you have never kept (Philippians 3:9-10).
IF the old law was good enough, WHY did God send His only begotten Son???
“I do not frustrate the grace of God: for if righteousness come by the law, then Christ is dead in vain.” Galatians 2:21
ANY person who says that we need ANY part of the old law to make us righteous or more justified in God’s eyes, has committed the ultimate sin, blasphemously declaring that God is a fool and openly denial Christ and the need for Him.
Paul called law keeping judaizers “EVIL workers.” Philippians 3:1-10
Am I being too harsh? Galatians is the apostle Paul’s signature letter (6 chapters) exposing judaizing devils who were causing many to fall from saving grace and to be lost – hell bound (Gal. 3:3; 5:4).
Paul told us that those who misuse the law are to be rebuked sharply so they repent and become “sound in the faith.” (Titus 1) Then the apostle says to “reject” them as “heretics”if they refuse after “the first or second admonition.” (Titus 3:9-11)
– Could it possibly be any clearer than this??? – “Therefore we conclude that a man is justified by faith without the deeds of the law. ” (Rom. 3:28) AND – “But that no man is justified by the law in the sight of God, it is evident: for, The just shall live by faith. … 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.” (Gal. 3:11, 24-25)
Rom. 3:31; 8:2-4 communicate exactly how the righteousness of the law is fulfilled in the BELIEVER (by faith in Christ alone) – not by trying to observe an old, obsolete law that made NO one righteous but only exposed just how sinful we are (Rom. 7:7). If you aren’t trusting Christ 100% for your justification, you are still under the old covenant and required to keep EVERY single jot and tittle of it and if / WHEN / AS you break even the slightest part of it, you are guilty of breaking it all (James 2:10). It’s time for you to surrender and get saved by faith in the only ONE who kept the whole law perfectly – Christ! I pray the law wears you out – till you are ready to die and be one with Christ. It’s a “schoolmaster to bring us to CHRIST” – the only Savior and justifier! (Galatians 3:24) If you don’t realize this simple New Testament truth, you have no clue at all as to what Christianity and the kingdom of God are.
What you are doing is seeking to establish your own righteousness by law keeping which is impossible instead of by knowing Christ – the only ONE who kept, fulfilled, expired, and nailed the old law to the cross, taking it out of the way (Col. 2:14-19). You are not upholding Christ the “HEAD” and are therefore openly denying Him and calling God a liar. You cannot be saved this way. Law keeping is self-righteousness which is no righteousness at all – “And be found in him, not having mine own righteousness, which is of the law, but that which is through the faith of Christ, the righteousness which is of God by faith: 10 That I may know him, and the power of his resurrection, and the fellowship of his sufferings, being made conformable unto his death;” (Philippians 3:9-10) You see, Paul denounced what many today want to trust in – their own self effort and self righteousness which is filthy rags in God’s holy eyes (Isaiah 64:6). Those who think that keep any part of the law helps them with God are those self-righteous unbelievers who want to feel as if THEY are earning their own way with God – earning or meriting THEIR own salvation. They are the worst type of unbelieving devil in the eyes of God.
THE JEW OF ALL JEWS, PAUL, COUNTED ALL LAW-RIGHTEOUSNESS AS CRAP – and he exchanged that UN-righteousness for Christ! You must choose! (Philippians 3:1-10) The Jew of all Jews, the apostle Paul, calls the law and law keeping the very “yoke of BONDAGE.” (Acts 15:10; Gal. 5:1). Paul denounced all law keeping and called it “dung”(crap) in order to know Christ, the only perfect keeper of the old law (Philippians 3:1-10).“Now therefore why tempt ye God, to put a yoke 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.” (Galatians 5:1) The context in both these passage is clearly and indisputably law righteousness verse grace righteousness by faith in Christ for justification.
Argument:
“But, but, but Jesus told the rich young ruler to keep the commandments.”
Answer:
The rich young ruler, a covetous idolater, was only told to keep the commandments as a schoolmaster in order to bring him to Christ (Galatians 3:24). Keeping the law makes no one righteousness. Any person who doesn’t understand this, has not the slightest foundation of Bible knowledge. Read Romans, Galatians, Colossians, and Hebrews.
“BUT WE MUST BE OBEDIENT!” That’s true. But to what and how? HOW do we keep the Word – the NEW Testament Word? Was it by law before Jesus came? NO! So why would it be by law now? It’s by grace which Jesus brought. Keep reading in Romans 6. See Romans 6:14 – “For sin shall not have dominion over you: for ye are not under the law (which only exposed HOW very sinful we are), but under grace (divine enablement).” “The law came by Mose but grace and truth came by Jesus Christ.” (John 1:17)
“For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus hath made me free from the law of sin and death. 3 For WHAT THE LAW COULD NOT DO (Therefore was replaced), in that it was weak through the flesh (exposed how sinful we are), God sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh, and for sin, condemned sin in the flesh: 4 That the righteousness of the law might be fulfilled in us, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.” Romans 8:2-4
Only those “who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit” can fulfill God’s righteousness and His righteous requirements and this is by faith!
DID the OLD Testament Jews keep the law by the power of the law? NO! The law only exposed how sinful they are and we are. The law does not provide divine enablement (GRACE) to fulfill it. That’s why it had to be replaced.
Justification comes only through the crucified, risen Son of God and not by trying to keep the OLD law which is futility. It’s ONLY THEN that the believer – brought into Christ and delivered from the law- is granted divine enablement through grace to overcome and live obedient to the LORD NEW Testament Word. – “Who (NEW Testament born again believers) also hath made us able ministers of the NEW testament; not of the letter (old law), but of the SPIRIT: for the letter killeth, but the spirit giveth life.” (2 Corinthians 3:6)
“For we are the circumcision, which worship God in the spirit, and rejoice in Christ Jesus, and have no confidence in the flesh (by trying to keep the old law).” Philippians 3:3
Does Sheer Obedience Save or Does Jesus Save?
You are completely deceived to say I ever hinted at lawlessness which I expose daily and have for decades now. Yet, justification comes by God’s grace through our faith – not law-keeping or obedience. Jesus says that only “IF” we love Him is He pleased with our obedience to Him out of and abiding relationship (John 15). Obedience DOES NOT save anyone. Only God can save and He does that on the basis of FAITH in Christ’s perfection and not the vain attempt of law-keeping! Paul says that EVEN IF WE OBEDIENTLY GIVE OUR BODIES TO BE BURNED FOR CHRIST IT DOES NOT PLEASE GOD AND IS IN VAIN (1 Corinthians 13). IF we don’t love Him, having been regenerated and saved by GRACE, He’s not at all interested in our attempted at law-keeping or obedience. “IF ye love me keep my commandments.” (John 14:15) It’s only IF we love Him that Jesus is interested in our obedience.
Notice “IFFFF ye love me, keep my commandments.” As do so many other verses in the New Testament, this seems to infer that God wants us to know and love Him supremely, otherwise, keeping His Word is not of interest to Him (Matthew 22:37-40; John 17:3; Philippians 3:10, etc.).
Self-Righteous OR Savior Righteous?
WILL we stand before God and say “But LORD I kept or tried to keep the law”??? OR, like the humble man among the two whom Jesus said went up to pray, will we say, “God be merciful to me a sinner.” (Luke 18:13) What does it truly mean to be “poor (impoverished, completely flattened and dependent) in spirit” and therefore inherit “the kingdom of heaven”? (Matthew 5:3)
Obeying Jesus is the fruit or proof we know Him – but those works do not save us! His perfect, “finished” work of redemption on that cross saves us and nothing else! (John 19:30)
BUT what about James 2? James is speaking to believers – those already saved by divine grace through faith (Rom 5:1-2; Eph 2:8-9). Being saved by divine grace through faith is what is a priority – without which no attempt at obedience means anything because before that happens we have no relationship at all with the LORD.
The Only TRUE JEWS:
“For he is not a Jew, which is one outwardly (by blood or law-keeping); neither is that circumcision, which is outward in the flesh: 29 But he is a Jew, which is one inwardly; and circumcision is that of the heart, in the spirit, and not in the letter; whose praise is not of men, but of God.” Romans 2:28-29
The righteousness of the law is fulfilled by walking in Christ, in the Spirit and not by trying to keep the old, obsolete law. Rom. 8:2-4
The true, justified believer says like Paul in utter surrender: “I have no righteousness of mine own but am rather undone in God’s holy eyes, completely impoverished, less than the least of all sinners, and the chief of all sinners and in utter need of Christ’s imputed righteousness, the only righteousness there is in God’s eyes.”
The LORD wants to grant us a much deeper understand and that will only coming by deep study of Romans, Galatians, Colossians and Hebrews.
Intriguing Question:
“So, if we try not to murder or steal or commit adultery we need to keep ALL of it???? Oh, I see what you are saying- for justification purposes. Now, after you have been justified, what are you to do?” Suzanna
Reply:
Hi Suzanna… a thorough study of Romans helps us …. when we live in the Spirit instead of the flesh, the power of the Holy Spirit brings forth the fruit of God’s holiness which means we won’t steal, lie, lust, adulterate, covet, dishonor our parents, etc. If we do err, we can confess, repent, and move forward. See Romans 6-8. The holiness of God is fulfilled when we, as born against saints, walk in an abiding fellowship with Christ (Romans 3:31; 8:2-4, etc.). Those are still sins and repeated in the NEW Testament but keeping a certain day is not. In fact, Paul was “afraid” of the backslidden Galatians because they were counting days, months, and years important (Galatians 4:9-11).
Paul feared for New Testament believers who counted days important: “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.” (Galatians 4:9-11)
Paul was afraid for the eternal souls of those who went back under law, putting emphasis on days, months, years (Galatians 4:9-11).
Hard Questions for Seventh Dayists
- Where is the proof that any man ever kept the seventh day, except by special commandment, prior to the proclamation of the ten commandments at Mount Sinai? (Gen. 2:2, 3; Ex. 16:23-30; 20:1-17).
- If Christians are required to keep the seventh day, why do you depart from your dwelling on that day, seeing those to whom the law was given were plainly commanded not to do so? (Ex. 16:29).
- If you keep one Sabbath-the seventh day-why not keep them all, the seventh year and the year of Jubilee? Who authorized you to make distinction in favor of the seventh day? (Lev. 25 :1-22)
- If Christians are required to keep the Sabbath, how are they to live in cold climates when it is forbidden to build a fire on the Sabbath? (Ex. 35:1-3).
- Is it the duty of Christians to put to death those who desecrate the seventh day? (Num. 15:32-36). If yes, who will be the public executioner? If no, what will you do with the law? (Ex. 35:2). If you say that the penalties are abolished, I answer that the same passages that you use to establish this. prove beyond the shadow of a doubt that the law, too, is abolished. If you admit that the penalties are still in force-and the proof that they are unanswerable and invincible if the law is in force-there is not a Seventh Dayist on top of the green earth who can escape the vengeance of the broken law!
- If Christians are under obligation to observe the seventh day, why did Jesus declare that all law and prophecy hang on love instead of the Sabbath, seeing the command to keep it is the one on which you hang your everlasting all? (Matt. 22:34-40; Rom. 13:8-10).
- Why did Jesus not require the young ruler to keep the Sabbath when enumerating the commandments? (Matt. 19:16-20; Mark 10:17-22; Luke 18:18-24).
- If Christians are to keep the law of Moses-the Sabbath-why did the apostles and elders who met at Jerusalem leave it out of their address to the churches? (Acts 15 :1-29). This case finds, in some respects, a parallel in your theorizing. Judaizing teachers had gone forth declaring to the brethren that unless they would submit to circumcision and keep the law of Moses they could not be saved. The apostles said, “We gave no such commandment.”
- If Christians are required to keep the Sabbath, how are we to account for the open violation of the law by Jesus Christ, who is our example, unless by saying that the power that made the law can take it away (John 7 :22-23).
- If you keep the Sabbath because you think it was kept before the law of Moses, why do you not practice circumcision. seeing it is plainly commanded in these ages? (Gen. 17:1-14; Gal. 5:1-6).
- When did patriarch, prophet, or apostles, or anybody else, command any Gentile to keep the law of Moses? No dodging here. Proof! Proof!! Proof!!!
- Paul says the ministration of death written and engraven in stone (Ex. 20:1-17; 31:18; 32 6:15-16; 34:1-28) was done away (2 Cor. 3:1-18). When, where, and by whom was it brought back into force? Name the day, the age, the authority, and give proof from the Book! If your doctrine is true the great apostle of the Gentiles stands convicted of a mistake.
- If the early Christians kept the Sabbath day, why did they break bread on the first day of the week? (Acts 20:7).
- If Christians are to keep the Sabbath day, how do you account for the fact that the apostles preached the gospel in Jerusalem, Samaria, to Cornelius the Gentile, and to many others, without commanding a single individual to keep it? Did they, under the inspiration of the Holy Spirit fail to properly instruct their converts? (Acts 2:1-47; 8:1-40; 10:1-48 ;16:1-40).
- Is it not a fact, according to the book of Acts, that the thing done was of more importance than the day? Acts 20:7.
- Can you demonstrate that the day you keep is really the seventh day or Sabbath, coming down in regular succession from the day on which God keeps? If not, your day is no better than any other day. Admitting, for argument’s sake, that the law of Moses is still in force, and that the fourth commandment is binding on the whole human race, will you affirm that it is possible for all men to keep the same day? If so, how do you explain the fact that the traveler who starts out to go around the earth, gains, say, if going east, one hour for every thousand miles traveled, or if going west loses an hour for every thousand miles traveled? How far would he go before he lost the count? Do you not see that he would inevitably be behind or in advance? Further, how do you explain the fact that far away toward the extremes of the earth, traveling from the equator, there are periods of six months night and six months day from age to age? Do you not see that it is a geographical impossibility for all men to keep the same day, and that the Law was only intended for one people, one country, and one age?
- Do you keep the Sabbath day? No dodging, do you? Do you rest, or put in the day promulgating your doctrines? If you do not keep the day according to the Law, you do not keep it at all. If part is done away, then all is done away. Read Exodus 20:8-11; 35:1-3.

FEEDBACK:
“I have been fighting this battle SO LONG bro! Most will not even crack a Strong’s and define essential words like “repent, believe, faith, holy, righteous,” etc IN CONTEXT. If we say “grace”, they think we are saying its okay to sin. God forbid. Exactly why I started a small “assembly” for those who DO understand, or want to learn this…” Do I believe, trust, (Greek active word.. “faithing”) that what Jesus accomplished on the cross was, and IS sufficient for my peace with God, and do I “entrust” the well-being of my eternal soul to Him?” They don’t understand our “position” IN Christ versus our “practice” (walk). I was born and raised as an Orthodox Jew so I hear this ALL the time. As you said, and I will echo….”Anybody out there who has conquered sin in their PRACTICE? Can you “act holy to be holy?” Knowing and trusting your “identity IN Christ” is vital. THEN, the walk begins! I am a SAINT who will sin in this world. That DOES NOT mean that my heart doesn’t want to obey all the commandments. I cannot “perform” enough for salvation. God will judge the heart. I TRUST GOD. PERIOD.” Daniel B.

Mexico Mission Part 22

2 MORMONS OPENLY, PUBLICLY REBUKED
Just now came upon 2 young mormons trying to minister to an old man. After immediately commanding the attention of all 3, I pointed to the mormons while looking at and directly speaking to the elder man. He was informed in Spanish that those boys are peddling a false gospel, a false religion and that Jesus Christ is the only way to God and Heaven, not religion. He was also informed that those young men were “accursed” and are perpetrating a false religion, that they are falso prophetas (false prophets) and to beware. He was informed that the precious blood of Jesus will wash away all of his sins if he will repent and receive Christ.
“Beloved, when I gave all diligence to write unto you of the common salvation, it was needful for me to write unto you, and exhort you that ye should earnestly contend for the faith which was once delivered unto the saints.” Jude 3

TODAY: Upon hearing the Word spoken to him and being handed a JESUS tract, beloved Francisco immediately lit up and began to testify of how he is saved. He said he went to prison for a year and in jail he was born again and read the whole Bible through several times. He is a dear brother and took 20-30 JESUS tracts to pass out to others. Would you like to lift up Francisco in prayer?
*Francisco is excited to receive the 4 books the ministry now have in Spanish for his edification. They are being sent now. Sent and here’s the response from our brother in Christ, Francisco:
“Brother it was very nice to meet you today. Many Christians in the United States are praying for you. Here are the 4 books I promise to send you.” Francisco

“Amen. The Mexican people are a humble people, who work with their hands and heart. Praise God!” Anita Villareal
I am always so amazed by what the Lord is doing in people’s hearts in Mexico. Thank you for sharing with all of us. It’s a blessing to be part of what the Lord is doing. Team Jesus.
IF we ask God to prepare us, we might be surprised at the occasions HE turns into ministry open doors, opportunities!
Yesterday while doing some work at a local cafe, moving my head a bit to a bumpin beat in a praise song to our LORD I was listening to …. a teenager liked that and started moving his head in the same way while walking toward me …. I smiled real big at him, removed the ear plugs and we high 5’d with joy and as a result he and his friend received the spoken Word and also a JESUS tract each.
Jesus is KING!
There are no hand outs in Mexico and therefore lazy unproductive people don’t come here to get free stuff. There is no free stuff. No one here complains. They works hard, are happy, and take care of their own personal responsibilities.
God requires that people work for their own living.
“Let him that stole steal no more: but rather LET HIM LABOUR, working with his hands the thing which is good, that he may have to give to him that needeth.” Ephesians 4:28
“For even when we were with you, this we commanded you, that if any would not work, neither should he eat.” 2 Thessalonians 3:10
Also, …. For Mexico, it is unthinkable to bring in foreigners to replace their own people which would be an atrocity. Isn’t that what the devil-rat communists have done in the USA?
Your prayer for Yvonne is amazing. She was captivated by Christ’s Gospel and wants to hear more. She received the Word spoken and in print (Jesus tract).
The people of Mexico are exemplary. The manners, the etiquette, meekness, etc.
WARNING: If you dare help pray for and/or supply this ministry outreach, the direct result will be that saved souls are going to be edified, made whole, and equipped and lost souls are going to hear the preached Word of God – both in English and Spanish. If you do not like these things, please don’t give to this ministry outreach. Thank you.

Conspiracy Among the False Prophets [podcast]

The Prophesied End Times Conspiracy of False Leaders [podcast]
Birds of a Feather Truly Do Flock Together
“For MANY deceivers are entered into the world . . .” 2 John 7
So many today tell you exactly who they are when they quote absolute frauds like John Calvin, Mother Teresa, Joyce Meyer, Kenneth Hagin, Kenneth Copeland, Rick Warren, James R. White, Todd White, etc. The list is endless of false prophets who are still heralded by heretical pawns who are part of the “conspiracy” of false prophets who are against the LORD (Ezekiel 22:25-27).
Stop endorsing and quoting and esteeming mere sinful men, now! Obey God by exposing them! (Matthew 10:26-28; 23; Romans 16:17-18; Jude 3, etc.).
“Cease ye from man, whose breath is in his nostrils: for wherein is he to be accounted of?” Isaiah 2:22
“Seems so many miss the little things by not investigating for themselves. I wish they would just stick to the Bible and give honour where God hath given honour: like unto Paul, Timothy, Epaphras, John, Peter, etc. There are plenty of examples to us in the written Word without having to laud men that we truly know very little of or were written of by secular historians.” Jon Crane
The Word of God has very much to say about discernment, and one of those cardinal truths is found in Ezekiel 22:25-27 which speaks of how birds of a feather DO flock together and so that’s one way we know them by their fruits (Matthew 7:16, 20). When you see someone hanging with, colluding with a known false prophet, you know that they’re both wolves. Also we should become very familiar with 2 John 10-11. Example: The history of the roman church is to infiltrate, to send their trojan horse wolves in our midst, acting like Christians while coming to subvert. The jesuits infiltrated the protestant seminaries beginning in the 1950’s and that’s when the prophesied final great departure from the truth began (1 Timothy 4:1-2, etc.). So, when you see a preacher who isn’t exposing this antichrist cult but rather colluding with them, you know he’s antichrist. Examples of such include Billy Graham, Paul Washer, James Robison, Jonathan Roumie, Sean Feucht, etc. See Catholicism/Ecumenism category.
“Therefore rejoice, ye heavens, and ye that dwell in them. Woe to the inhabiters of the earth and of the sea! for the devil is come down unto you, having great wrath, because he knoweth that he hath but a short time.” Revelation 12:12
Beware of the bombardment, the constant delusions of the enemy, who “is come down unto you, having great wrath, because he knoweth that he hath but a short time.” (Revelation 12:12) For example: The Jesus Revolution Movie, the fake revivals such as Asbury, etc. There is a culminating “conspiracy”, a concerted effort by Satan and his human agents, to deceive the elect, wolves in sheeps’ clothing among us! Beware saints.
“For then shall be great tribulation, such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be. 22 And except those days should be shortened, there should no flesh be saved: but for the elect’s sake those days shall be shortened.” Matthew 24:21-22
Over reaction on the Bible topic of false leaders? If you can find the phrase “many true prophets” in God’s Word, show it to us. Hint: It’s not there. Yet, we are repeatedly warned of “many false prophets” who would “deceive many” and how in these last days “evil men and seducers shall wax worse and worse, deceiving, and being deceived.” (Matthew 24:11; 1 John 4:1; 2 Timothy 3:13)
“Many pastors have destroyed my vineyard, they have trodden my portion under foot, they have made my pleasant portion a desolate wilderness.” Jeremiah 12:10
WHO DID GOD TELL US IS MISLEADING HIS PEOPLE?
“For the leaders of this people cause them to err; and they that are led of them are destroyed.” Isaiah 9:16
Is false leadership, those who mislead, not the greatest threat to the body of Christ? Yes!
There is obviously little threat from external Satanists and yet those who serve the enemy within the body of Christ are strategic plants, positioned to infect those who surround them. Yet, the Holy Spirit who is the Author of the Word of God, spends volumes of time utilizing many words to warn us of the impending and guaranteed danger of these wolves who prey upon the sheep of the LORD using various messages, methods and manipulation. These “deceitful workers” work most effectively within, not without (2 Corinthians 11:13-15). They are at work in our midst–strategically, internally planted. There is a conspiracy of false prophets and false teachers united by the spirit of antichrist and purposed to malign, ever so subtly, the image of the one true God.
“There is a conspiracy of her prophets in the midst thereof, like a roaring lion ravening the prey; they have devoured souls; they have taken the treasure and precious things …” Ezekiel 22:25
Where are the “prophets” who conspire? They are strategically positioned “in the midst” of the saints of the LORD. They steal the “treasure and precious things” of the LORD by robbing His sheep of His clear and full-counsel truth which bears the abundance of His spiritual blessings in heavenly places through Jesus Christ.
According to the Holy Scriptures, false prophets are known by their affiliations. See Ezekiel 22:25-27.
According to 2 John 10-11 we will be judged with evil doers if we condone, support them in any way. Also, a major truth of discerning is found in Ezekiel 22:25-27.
Packs of wolves adorned behind the sheep’s clothing of their denomination, church building, affiliation, degree and charisma, operate in the modern church, leading people to the knowledge of a false Christ.
The antichrist spirit opposes Christ under the pretense of representing Him and leading His Church.
“There is a conspiracy of her prophets in the midst thereof, like a roaring lion ravening the prey; they have devoured souls; they have taken the treasure and precious things; they have made her many widows in the midst thereof. Her priests have violated my law, and have profaned mine holy things: they have put no difference between the holy and profane, neither have they showed difference between the unclean and the clean, and have hid their eyes from my sabbaths, and I am profaned among them. Her princes in the midst thereof are like wolves ravening the prey, to shed blood, and to destroy souls, to get dishonest gain. And her prophets have daubed them with untempered mortar, seeing vanity, and divining lies unto them, saying, Thus saith the Lord GOD, when the LORD hath not spoken.” Ezekiel 22:25-28
Note the classes of leadership listed here–prophets, priests, princes, and prophets. There were many levels of leadership involved and operating in a conspiracy against the LORD. Where are the conspiratorial false “prophets”?–“in the midst” of God’s people. What are the false prophets doing in the midst of God’s people and what have they done?
Ezekiel 22 Outline
- “ravening the prey (they see God’s people as an opportunity for self gain)” (v25)
- “have devoured souls (do not flinch to deceive and destroy precious souls)” (v25)
- “they have taken the treasure and precious things (stolen the spiritual blessing of His glorious salvation)” (v25)
- “they have made her many widows in the midst thereof (caused spiritual death)” (v25)
- “Her priests have violated my law (do not hold to and preach God’s pure Word, but rather use their position to profit themselves)” (v26)
- “have profaned mine holy thing (made common that which is holy)” (v26)
- “they have put no difference between the holy and profane (mixture)” (v26)
- “neither have they showed difference between the unclean and the clean (did not teach His people to discern)” (v26)
- “have hid their eyes from my Sabbaths (did not set the LORD and His rest apart as holy)” (v26)
- “I am profaned among them” (v26)
- “Her princes in the midst thereof are like wolves ravening the prey” (v27)
- “shed blood, and to destroy souls” (v27)
- “get dishonest gain (made merchandise of the people)” (v27)
- “her prophets have daubed them with untempered mortar (built their organizations in a way not prescribed in the Word)” (v28)
- “seeing vanity” (v28)
- “divining lies (conjuring up “words” that are not from God)” (v28)
- “saying, Thus saith the Lord GOD, when the LORD hath not spoken (using His holy name in vain for their own selfish gain)” (v28)
This enumeration of the characteristics and operating tactics of false leaders is no different today than what it was in Ezekiel’s day.
JIHAD IN THE MODERN CHURCH
There is a war raging in the church world today. It is the war for truth, which is opposed by the liars and lies of the enemy of all of God’s people, who makes war against the saints (Daniel 7:21). The enemy is greatly assisted in his cause, by those fruitless leaders who refuse to openly and continually dispense divine truth. This war goes unnoticed by most but will determine the future of the souls of countless men.
The LORD instructs all of His people, especially those in leadership, to discern and detect such lies and to “Speak thou the things which become sound doctrine.” (Titus 2:1)
The evil silence of so many in leadership who do not know nor “preach the word” is contemptible, despicable, shameful, offensive and insidious (2 Timothy 4:2). There is no doubt that these in leadership in today’s church, who do not teach the pure Word of God, are the most powerful emissaries of the evil one. If God’s people know His Word, the will not be destroyed for lack of knowledge (Psalms 17:4; Hosea 4:6).
Jihad means holy war. Those who wage such a war in the Islamic world, do so stealthily. The enemies of God, who stealthily prey upon the weak, beginning with their father the devil, are for the most part, cowardly. Do we have a well-hidden war being waged in our churches–being clandestinely waged by our very leaders? Have we not been warned that many deceivers have “crept in unawares (undetected)” who “lie in wait to deceive”? (Jude 4; Ephesians 4:14)
The Islamic terrorists seek to come within our cities and drop their undetected “dirty bombs” and kill millions of Americans. Much worse are those spiritual terrorists who hold leadership positions and yet do not “feed the church of God” and by denial are dropping their dirty bombs of error in word and lifestyle. They refuse to protect God’s people by filling them with His truth (Proverbs 30:5; Acts 20:32). These who serve themselves of the ministry are in denial and do not give protection to the people of God like true shepherds do.
“For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who hold (Gr. suppress) the truth in unrighteousness.” Romans 1:18
If our government did nothing to protect us from the physical terrorism the Islamic Jihadists who seek to inflict death and destruction on our nation, what would we say? We would be outraged, right? Doesn’t the physical threat of terrorism Muslims seek to bring on America, pale in comparison to the dangerous and deadly spiritual terrorism of false prophets and their potential to damn the very souls of men? Is not the future health of the Christian and Church being placed at stake by the refusal of leaders to diligently dispense the doctrinal truths the LORD gave us in His Word? If so, then why are we not completely outraged at such gross lack of warning or protection from our leaders, concerning the spiritual terrorism the enemy of all souls is bringing into the midst of our camps, and the gross lack of Bible teaching?
Perhaps we would fair well to place this following Bible promise on our refrigerators in order to keep us aware of the reality of such deception:
“For this I know (definitive), that after my departing SHALL (a Bible promise) grievous wolves enter in AMONG YOU, not sparing the flock.” Acts 20:29
Seeking to push from view the reality of deceivers and deception is a dangerous undertaking at best and a brazen betrayal of God and our fellow man. The fact of false prophets is a reality, especially as concerns these final days. Trying to hide this fact may just prove that we are a part of the conspiracy against the LORD and His children (Ezekiel 22:25-27).
There is a mountain of Bible passages dedicated to warning us to discern false prophets and false teachings. Like any good parent, our heavenly Father wants His beloved children to be “safe” and like Paul so do all true servant leaders (Philippians 3:1). To ignore what He told us about deceivers and false teaching is to indict the Almighty as being uncaring, un-thoughtful, and a bad parent. One must openly reject hundreds of verses to ignore the dangerous threat imposed by “grievous wolves.” (Acts 20:29) The threat posed by these wolves is severe. Eternal souls are in the balance.
It is highly regrettable far too little is said or addressed of this important biblical subject which has left God’s people at a place of great vulnerability (1 John 4:1). According to Ezekiel 44:23 and Colossians 1:28, true servants of Jesus are to “teach” His people to discern “the difference between the holy and profane, and cause them to discern between the unclean and the clean.”
In this late hour “evil men and seducers” of souls are waxing “worse and worse” and the LORD must have His obedient watchmen to teach, to warn, and to preach (Colossians 1:28; 2 Timothy 3:13).
All watchmen and disciples of Jesus are to diligently and without ceasing bring His people into remembrance of His Word and the many warnings therein (1 Timothy 4:6, 16). This is what the “good minister of Jesus Christ” does as well as nourishing them “up in the words of faith and of good doctrine.” (1 Timothy 4:6, 16)
THE GOOD SHEPHERD PROTECTS HIS SHEEP
The man who isn’t warning isn’t loving and isn’t protecting Christ’s sheep. Run from such a devil for he is part of the antichrist “conspiracy” against Christ! (Ezekiel 22:25-27) Such a man is completely unlike Christ and His prophets and apostles who repeatedly warned of false prophets and their heresies!
Jesus Christ is “the great shepherd of the sheep” and “Jesus Christ (is) the same yesterday, and today, and forever”, then is He not still deeply concerned about the protection of His people today? (Hebrews 13:8, 20)
Please realize that the LORD holds each of us responsible to take heed to what we hear and to keep our own hearts with all diligence and stay pure from all deceivers and deceptions (Deuteronomy 4:9; Proverbs 4:20-23; Luke 21:34-36; 2 Timothy 2:15, etc.).
“Keep thyself pure.” 1 Timothy 5:22
Beloved, in light of your own personal responsibility to walk and remain in the truth, let me encourage you to avoid holding your breath till you find a true under-shepherd who will do his duty by watching, overseeing, “declar(ing) unto you all the counsel of God”, and “feed(ing) the church of God.” (Acts 20:28-32) Consider prayerfully and perpetually getting into God’s Word for yourself. Devour it and let your heart be taught in His perfect ways by his Spirit.
Prayer: Heavenly Father, please forgive me for ever helping, for bidding God speed in any way to a wolf that is Your enemy. I now this moment repent and desire never to commit this sin again. Please unite my heart to fear Thy holy name LORD Jesus! Teach me to discern and to cling to You according to the lamp of Your precious Precepts! In the name of Jesus Christ. Amen.

Man’s Problem – God’s Redemptive Solution [podcast]

The Biblical Doctrine or Story of Redemption
The story of God’s creation of mankind and mankind’s descension into sin. Man chose to sin. God chose to redeem and not ditch.
Man’s Dilemma, Sin – God’s Solution – the Savior, Jesus Christ
Here’s fallen mankind’s issue—sin, sin nature:
“For I know that in me (that is, in my flesh,) dwelleth no good thing: for to will is present with me; but how to perform that which is good I find not. … O wretched man that I am! who shall deliver me from the body of this death?” Romans 7:18, 24
“The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked: who can know it?” Jeremiah 17:9
Two facts about the natural heart:
- It is deceitful above all things.
- It is desperately wicked.
Mankind’s Dilemma at and After the Fall of Adam and Eve into Sin
“And GOD saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every imagination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually.” Genesis 6:5
“And God looked upon the earth, and, behold, it was corrupt; for all flesh had corrupted his way upon the earth.” Genesis 6:12
“Lo, this only have I found, that God hath made man upright; but they have sought out many inventions.” Ecclesiastes 7:29
Sin is man’s fault, not God’s. God, knowing man could not remedy his own sinful fallen state, sent His only begotten Son (James 1:13-15).
“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. 17 For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved.” John 3:16-17
“To wit, that God was in Christ, reconciling the world unto himself … 21 For he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him.” 2 Corinthians 5:19,21
“This is a faithful saying, and worthy of all acceptation, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners; of whom I am chief.” 1 Timothy 1:15
Here’s God’s solution (as opposed to the band aid false promises of liberty from sin being peddled in the modern church world):
1. The precious blood of Jesus Christ…..
2. The crucified life thereafter, following initial salvation
Initial Salvation
“Giving thanks unto the Father, which hath made us meet to be partakers of the inheritance of the saints in light: 13 Who hath delivered us from the power of darkness, and hath translated us into the kingdom of his dear Son: 14 In whom we have redemption through his blood, even the forgiveness of sins:” Colossians 1:12-14
“Forasmuch as ye know that ye were not redeemed with corruptible things, as silver and gold, from your vain conversation received by tradition from your fathers; 19 But with the precious blood of Christ, as of a lamb without blemish and without spot:” 1 Peter 1:18-19
“Giving thanks unto the Father, which hath made us meet to be partakers of the inheritance of the saints in light: 13 Who hath delivered us from the power of darkness, and hath translated us into the kingdom of his dear Son: 14 In whom we have redemption through his blood, even the forgiveness of sins:” Colossians 1:12-14
After Initial Salvation
God’s redemption in and through Christ alone comes complete with every iota of grace needed and more to live holy AFTER being initially saved (Titus 2:11-14). Otherwise the excuse-maker, the moral coward who buys the OSAS/eternal security fairytale will die and spend eternity in hell, all the while swearing he is sealed and going to Heaven no matter what. | The Sealed Scam Exposed
Once saved, the recipient of Christ’s salvation…. the precious blood of Jesus cleanses us from all sin.
“What shall we say then? Shall we continue in sin, that grace may abound? 2 God forbid. How shall we, that are dead to sin, live any longer therein? …. For he that is dead is freed from sin.” Romans 6:1, 2, 7
Read that verse above again. Ask: WHO is “freed from sin”?
Memorize and declare daily!
“I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me.” Galatians 2:20
You cannot walk free from the sin that would separate you from God without doing your life HIS way and no other—being daily “crucified with Christ.”
Walking with Christ, living in His holiness, requires the daily cross—the crucified life.
Bible 101
The Cross Life
God did not send His only begotten Son to save, to forgive the sins of His people and then leave us on our own to overcome the sin He initially forgave us of. No. Nor did He come to die to forgive our sins initially and then give us license to live in the sins He died to “take away” from us (Matthew 1:21; John 1:29; Titus 2:11-14; Jude 4, etc.).
Anyone and everyone who dies in sin, will spend eternity in hell—separated from God who is “Holy, holy, holy” (Isaiah 6:3; Revelation 4:8). Anyone who teachers or even insinuates differently is an insidious snake and false prophet (Ezekiel 33:12-13; Romans 6:23; Galatians 5:19-21; Hebrews 12:14; 2 Peter 2:20-22; Revelation 21:8, 27, etc.).
At our initial salvation, we repent and let the LORD save us—then we must “endure to the end” of our life with Christ to be with Him in glory (Matthew 10:22; 24:13; John 15:6, etc.).
God is holy and we cannot live in sin and still be in a relationship with Him (Isaiah 6:3; Romans 6:23; Hebrews 12:14; Revelation 4:8, etc.).
How does the now saved disciple continue with Christ after being initially saved?
“But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin.” 1 John 1:7
God made full provision for our initial and final salvation (Hebrews 2:3).
In sending His only begotten Son to save you, God brought you into a relationship with Him—now and forever! When He brings you to repentance and faith in Christ, that is the beginning of your eternal relationship with Himself!
Jesus becomes our victory, the solution in our lives when we follow Him in dying “daily”—whereby He who is “the resurrection and the life” resurrects our lives “daily” in the full victory and fruitfulness He came to bring us into by His life, death, and resurrection (Luke 9:23-24; John 11:25).
Romans 6:1-7
“1 What shall we say then? Shall we continue in sin, that grace may abound?
2 God forbid. How shall we, that are dead to sin, live any longer therein?
3 Know ye not, that so many of us as were baptized into Jesus Christ were baptized into his death?
4 Therefore we are buried with him by baptism into death: that like as Christ was raised up from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life.
5 For if we have been planted together in the likeness of his death, we shall be also in the likeness of his resurrection:
6 Knowing this, that our old man is crucified with him, that the body of sin might be destroyed, that henceforth we should not serve sin.
7 For he that is dead is freed from sin.”
Here’s the foolery we must avoid—thinking God is going to raise us upward into His resurrection victory over sin and fruitful fields of blessings before we agree with Him that we must be dead and buried with Christ.
“Thou FOOL, that which thou sowest (plant) is not quickened (made alive, raised up), except it die (cross, death and burial):” 1 Corinthians 15:36
You life has to go down deep into the death and burial of Christ, with Christ… and then only will God quicken (make alive), raise up that life! And when He does, ALL of hell can’t stop what He’s going to use you to do!
Die and keep dying.
If you are dying GOD is raising you upward!
Seems like we just read that we are fools if we think God is going to resurrect us, raise us upward before we die downward. Read that verse above again.
In one sentence, what is the cross, the crucified life?
Answer: Daily surrender—daily giving your life over to the LORD, letting go and letting God (Luke 22:42; 23:46; John 3:30; 12:25, etc.).
Shall we today cry with Jesus, in His holy words, as He was dying for our sins, as He was conquering sin and death by dying (Hebrews 2:14) … “Father, into thy hands I commend my spirit” (Luke 23:46).
Sin and Satan’s reign of terror end the day you begin giving your life back to God—back to the One who made you and came and died to redeem you! ….declaring from your heart and out of your mouth as if driving a stake in the ground—that into His holy hands you are submitting your spirit, soul, body, life.
“For ye are dead, and your life is hid with Christ in God.” Colossians 3:3
Six feet under, dead and buried with Christ means sin and Satan cannot reach you—you are “HID with Christ in God.”
Because sin has taken its toll on every one of us, many of us have with both hands on our head ready to pull our hair out, been where we said with great anguish or at least thought “WHATTTT am I going to do with this evil in my life!!”
Jesus taught us that the cross is “daily”—that is, the denial, the disowning of self—so that HE and not us is ruling and reigning (Luke 9:23-24).
The constant of the cross is a necessity to abiding in Christ to the end and being fruitful to His eternal glory (John 15:1-16).
“But I KEEP under my body, and bring it into subjection: lest that by any means, when I have preached to others, I myself should be a castaway … Wherefore let him that thinketh he standeth take heed lest he fall.” 1 Corinthians 9:27; 10:12
The LORD knows the wickedness of my heart and of your heart. If I choose not to be truly “crucified with Christ” (Galatians 2:20). and therefore dwell on wickedness of any kind, He sees all the thoughts that I allow to occupy my mind that are not holy, but sinful— “evil concupiscence” (Colossians 3:5). He sees where the enemy or my own un-mortified sinful nature feeds thoughts to my mind. I have at times, not guarded my heart by casting down wicked imaginations (2 Corinthians 10:5; Proverbs 4:23). Can you relate? Yet, this must not be (Romans 8:5-8; 12:1-2; Ephesians 4:22-24).
“Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be filled.” Matthew 5:6
YOU will not be “filled” if you are not hungering and thirsting after Jesus.
“He that trusteth in his own heart is a fool: but whoso walketh wisely, he shall be delivered.” Proverbs 28:26
Here’s where it all culminates, where it ends for the righteous. The LORD is going to gather into one place His saints for eternal bliss and blessing.
“That in the dispensation of the fulness of times he might gather together in one all things in Christ, both which are in heaven, and which are on earth; even in him: 11 In whom also we have obtained an inheritance, being predestinated according to the purpose of him who worketh all things after the counsel of his own will: 12 That we should be to the praise of his glory, who first trusted in Christ. 13 In whom ye also trusted, after that ye heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation: in whom also after that ye believed, ye were sealed with that holy Spirit of promise, 14 Which is the earnest of our inheritance until the redemption of the purchased possession, unto the praise of his glory.” Ephesians 1:10-14
Now read the last two chapters in God’s Word for the details of eternal glory for the Father, Jesus, and all the saints of all ages (Revelation 21-22).
Prayer: Holy Father, in Jesus’ name, I trust You alone and not my own deceitful and wicked heart. Please anoint my life to be truly crucified with Christ. Please circumcise my heart dear LORD. Here and now I am dead and buried and my life is hid with You LORD Jesus and in God. Have all of me dear LORD Jesus. Here and now I let go and I let You God, crucify, bury, and raise up this life that is Yours and no longer mine. I am all Yours and I know You are all mine! I love You my LORD Jesus. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
