Among the stellar emotional needs of humanistic psychology are unconditional acceptance, unconditional self-regard, unconditional self-acceptance, and unconditional love. The meaning of the word unconditional is “without conditions or reservations; absolute.”1 The practical extension of the theories of unconditional love is a permissive attitude and a morally nonrestrictive atmosphere. That means no conditions or restrictions in child rearing, counseling, and other human relationships. Since the parent or counselor is to be giving unconditional love, it must be an absolute love, unrestricted by human feelings or failings, since the very meaning of the word is “absolute.” But, if there is any absolute when it comes to love, it is that human love is limited. It is not what it was originally created to be, even in the best of people and circumstances, except when Jesus Himself is loving in and through a person.

Adler and Maslow considered these “unconditionals” to be basic human needs, essential to a person’s sense of wellbeing. They taught that people need to be loved and accepted unconditionally—without any conditions of performance. Thus their followers teach that parents must love and accept their children unconditionally. Moreover, they encourage all people to love and accept themselves unconditionally.

Adler, Maslow, Rogers and others believed that a human being will find answers to his own dilemmas and naturally blossom into his best self in an atmosphere of unconditional love and acceptance, by which they meant a permissive, unstructured atmosphere. Nevertheless, as much as they would like to think that they themselves loved their clients unconditionally, the truth of the matter is this: people are not able to love unconditionally.

The Myth of Unconditional Love

Unconditional love is a myth. That is because the human is naturally self-biased and the human heart is so deceitful that one can fool himself into thinking that he is loving unconditionally, when in fact he has all kinds of conditions. For instance, what kind of unconditional love and unconditional positive regard is at work when the client can no longer pay for services and therapy is discontinued? Furthermore, even the most nondirective counselors express approval or disapproval in subtle, if not direct, ways.2

The idea of people improving their life in an atmosphere of unconditional love is founded on the premise that people are born good and that their natural inclination to goodness is thwarted by their environment (mainly parents). In such a system, self is the victim of society but finds salvation, freedom, and fulfillment through unconditional self-love and self-acceptance. Unconditional love cannot be based upon performance or it wouldn’t be unconditional. Therefore, it must be based on the intrinsic worth of the person. Paul Brownback, in his book The Danger of Self-Love, explains it this way:

. . . by unconditional love we are speaking of love on the basis of being rather than doing. One implication of this teaching is the place of grandeur that it gives to the human being. I am lovable just because I am human; therefore being human, in and of itself, regardless of what I do with my humanness, must have some sort of independent value or worth. It is by itself a sufficient claim to respect and esteem.3

Thus, according to these self theories, everyone is born with the right to receive unconditional love and unconditional acceptance throughout his entire life, no matter what!

Pastors assigned to shepherd God’s flocks, should have been alert to the subtleties of deception that would turn a believer’s eyes from God to self. But alas, rather than warning the sheep, many of the shepherds have joined the psychologists and embrace their teachings of unconditional love and unconditional acceptance.

A Misunderstanding of God’s Love

The basis for their eager embrace is a misunderstanding of the love of God which passes knowledge. They equate unconditional love and acceptance with the fact that God’s love is vast, unfathomable, and unmerited. Then they follow that with the idea that if God loves and accepts people unconditionally, they should also love and accept themselves unconditionally. While this may sound like a logical progression, there are some serious problems with the basic assumptions. Therefore, we must address the question: Is God’s love unconditional? Are there any conditions that must be met to become a recipient of His love?

Paul prayed that the believers in Ephesus would be able to comprehend the breadth, length, depth and height of God’s love. He desired that they know the love of Christ, which surpasses knowledge, so that they would be filled with the fullness of God (Ephesians 3:16-19). The wide expanse of God’s love has been the theme of the gospel throughout the ages, for to know His love is to know Him. Therefore, any consideration of His love is highly important and must be based upon His revelation of Himself rather than upon the imagination of men.

Love According to Secular Humanism

Ever since the rise of secular humanism in this country and especially since the establishment of humanistic psychology, the popular, “relevant” term to describe God’s love has been unconditional. The thrust of this word in humanistic psychology has been both to give and to expect unconditional love from one another with no strings attached. While unconditional love and acceptance supposedly promote change and growth, they make no requirements. But God, who is love, requires and produces radical change—new life—and He enables His children to grow in righteousness.

In humanistic psychology, parents and society are always the culprits. Since they believe that every person is born with intrinsic worth and innate goodness, psychologists contend that one main reason people experience emotional and behavioral problems is because they have not received unconditional love from their parents. Following that thesis, Christians have come to believe that the best kind of love is unconditional love. It is the highest love secular humanists know. It is touted as a love that makes no demands for performance, good behavior, or the like. It has also been associated with a kind of permissiveness, since it makes no demands and has no conditions, even though the promoters of the unconditional love jargon would say that unconditional love does not have to dispense with discipline.

God’s Love Revealed through Scripture

Because the concept of unconditional love permeates society and because it is often thought of as the highest form of human love, it is natural for a Christian to use this term to describe God. After all, His love is far greater than any human love imaginable. God’s love for humanity is so great that “He gave His only begotten Son that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life” (John 3:16). Oh, the magnitude of the cost! We cannot even fathom His love even though our very breath depends upon it! His love indeed reaches to the heights and depths. Nevertheless, is God’s love truly unconditional?

God’s love is available to human beings by grace alone. There is nothing anyone can do to earn that love. There is no good work that is either demanded or even possible. Does that make God’s love unconditional? Because unconditional love is absolute and without any conditions whatsoever, all men would be saved if God’s love were unconditional. But that would be universalism. That would nullify the need for Christ’s sacrificial death and God’s condition of salvation by grace through faith.

We must also ask, does God’s love apply to the person who has sinned against the Holy Spirit by refusing to receive His grace throughout his lifetime and who is destined for hell? God chooses upon whom He will place His love and the benefits of his love. Did Jesus ever imply that God’s love is unconditional? He said to His disciples:

He that hath my commandments, and keepeth them, he it is that loveth me: and he that loveth me shall be loved of my Father, and I will love him, and will manifest myself to him (John 14:21).

One might argue, however, that the story of the prodigal son proves unconditional love. It indeed illustrates the vastness of God’s love, forgiveness and longsuffering. However, the son repented. If he had had a prosperous evil life he may never have repented. And while the father would have waited and hoped, he would not have extended his love. After all, he did not go out searching for him to support his folly. Up to a point this seems to indicate unconditional love, and yet, God is not waiting in ignorance, not knowing what those for whom His son died might be doing. He knows, and there comes a time when those who have refused his offer of love and forgiveness die and face the judgment. It is difficult enough to understand God’s love without adding the term unconditional which is loaded with secular, humanistic, psychological connotations. The story of the prodigal son teaches grace, forgiveness and mercy—but unconditional love? No!

While God loves with a greater love than humans can comprehend, His holiness and justice also must be taken into consideration. Therefore the term unconditional love is inadequate for defining God. It does not account for God’s reaction to pompous men who devise plans against Him and His anointed. The psalmist goes so far as to say:

He that sitteth in the heavens shall laugh: the Lord shall have them in derision. Then shall he speak to them in his wrath, and vex them in his sore displeasure (Psalm 2:4-5).

And what about Lot’s wife as she turned to look at the smoldering cities? Or what about Jesus’ words to the cities that refused to repent?

Woe unto thee, Chorazin! woe unto thee, Bethsaida! for if the mighty works, which were done in you, had been done in Tyre and Sidon, they would have repented long ago in sackcloth and ashes. But I say unto you, It shall be more tolerable for Tyre and Sidon at the day of judgment, than for you. And thou, Capernaum, which art exalted unto heaven, shalt be brought down to hell . . . . it shall be more tolerable for the land of Sodom in the day of judgment, than for thee (Matthew 11:21-24).

Does that sound like unconditional love?

But perhaps one could say that God’s love for the Christian is unconditional since the Christian partakes of His love and grace through faith. Wouldn’t it be better to say that the conditions have been met? Jesus met the first condition, to wash away the sin that God hates. The believer meets the second condition by grace through faith. Or, perhaps it would be better to say that God’s love extended to a person is conditioned by His plan to give eternal life to those who believe on His Son. The conditions of God’s love are resident within Himself.

There is a strong temptation to use vocabulary that is popular in society in order to make Christianity sound relevant. Christians have something far better than what the world offers, but in expressing that good news they confuse people by using words that are already loaded with humanistic connotations and systems of thought. It would be better not to use the expression unconditional love when describing God’s love. There are plenty of other good words.

In this was manifested the love of God toward us, because that God sent his only begotten Son into the world, that we might live through 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. . . .
And we have known and believed the love that God hath to us. God is love; and he that dwelleth in love dwelleth in God, and God in him (1 John 4:9, 10, 16).

The incomprehensible magnitude of God’s love surpasses any concept of love devised by humanistic psychologists. The doctrine of unconditional love is a myth that glorifies man rather than God.

Unconditional Acceptance? [podcast]

Wolves Who Wield Twisted Swords “These were more noble than those in Thessalonica, in that they received the word with all readiness of mind, and searched the scriptures daily, whether those things were so.” Acts 17:11 What many today do is confuse unconditional love with God-given free will and they erroneously equate unconditional love with unconditional acceptance, which is a lie. Even though He’s “not willing that any should perish,” God will love us all the way into hell if we choose not to turn back to Him (2 Peter 3:9). Any person who does not meet His conditions will […]

Suffering Saints and the Savior

Remember how both Job and Paul were allowed to suffer at the hands of Satan? (Job 1-2; 2 Corinthians 12:7-10). God’s grace was sufficient and soared when Job and Paul were made weak, in self! What an amazing God we serve! “And lest I should be exalted above measure through the abundance of the revelations, there was given to me a thorn in the flesh, the messenger of Satan to buffet me, lest I should be exalted above measure. 8 For this thing I besought the Lord thrice, that it might depart from me. 9 And he said unto me, […]

TORAH Keepers Slammed

The value in Torah is that it pointed to, it prefigured the coming Messiah – Jesus Christ. It also established by God says is sin. It could not save. It is utterly inferior to the New Covenant brought by the Messiah. Read Hebrews 8-10.

TORAH KEEPING ANTICHRISTS EXPOSED! Christ’s apostle Paul warned Titus and us of many judaizer devils! Nothing has changed! Expose them!

NOTHING is more antichrist than rebels who pretend to keep the whole law or even attempt to (for righteousness) – instead of truly repenting and receiving the only One who ever perfectly kept the law and then nailed it to the cross! Jesus Christ! (Colossians 2:14-19) Galatians!

(podcasts linked below on this topic at bottom of this post)

Those still seeking to earn their own salvation via law keeping are outside of Christ’s kingdom and being called by Him to truly repent and believe upon Him – He who paid the full price for their sins on the cross (John 19:30). You are fully guilty in His holy eyes and He yet fully paid the only price that could have been paid to make you one with Him and the Father. You owe a debt you cannot pay. He paid a debt He did not owe. That’s how much Jesus loves you. Those who deny Christ by saying no to His offer and instead seeking to work for their own salvation, are doomed in sin, now and forever.

Gaebelein complains rightly:

“A judaistic Christianity which, with a profession of Grace and the Gospel, attempts to keep the law and fosters legal righteousness is a greater abomination in the eyes of God than professing Israel in the past, worshipping idols.”

Jesus came to “fulfil” the law which means to expire the law (Matthew 5:17-18)…. by perfectly keeping it, nailing it to the cross, and taking it out of the way so His new creatures can walk by the Spirit, by grace to fulfill all righteousness (Romans 8:2-4; Colossians 2:14-19).

MESSAGE RECEIVED:

“Why you understand the word “fulfil” to mean to expire is baffling, it is plain and clear in Greek.”

REPLY:

The law is expired “FOR RIGHTEOUSNESS” and not completely. The law reveals to us how sinful we are (Gal 3:24; Rom 5:20). The law establishes what God require (Romans 7:12) Law simply means instruction. Law does a lot more than expose sin. It arouses sin and causes sin to INCREASE. Rom 7:5; 5:20

Trying to keep the law to be right with God is a farce. “Keeping Torah” is a scam.

It’s time for you to repent and get into the LORD’s NEW Testament which replaced the old and is infinitely superior to the old (Heb 8-10). Moses, the law, cannot save you. Only Jesus can. 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, in that it was weak through the flesh, 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

We are saved by, espoused to, and committed to Christ, not the law (John 1:17; Romans 10:4; 2 Corinthians 11:2; Galatians 2:20-21). The law is perfect and yet makes no one righteous (Romans 3:28; 7:12; 10:4; Galatians 2:16, etc.). The law reveals just how wicked we are – in order to bring us to Christ (Romans 7; Galatians 3:24). Jesus nailed the ordinances of the law to the cross, taking it away, out of our way (Colossians 2:14-19). The New Covenant, ratified in the very blood of the Messiah, is all about Jesus, our “first love” and not law keeping (Romans 10:4; Revelation 2:4-5). Our worship is to Him. Read Romans 3:31; 8:2-4 closely. Pour over it prayerfully. Those who are born again into Christ, walking in the Spirit, will not fulfill the lusts of the flesh but rather the righteousness the law demands but never afforded the ability to perform until Christ came! (John 1:17) Christ’s New Testament disciples are full of His Holy Spirit and don’t walk around everyday trying to “keep Torah” as the Hebrew roots cult would lead one to believe. No, they love Jesus who saved them and walk in the power of His Holy Spirit, by the Word of God and fruitfully please God through the crucified life (Luke 9:23-24; John 15; 2 Corinthians 4:10-12; Galatians 2:20-21). The believer, walking out the daily cross – crucified life – is raised up and divinely enabled, by God’s enabling grace, the operational power of God, to fulfill all righteousness (Romans 8:3-4; 12-14; Galatians 5:14-24).

The law makes no one righteous but only convicts and reveals just how sinful we are and how much we need Christ – not more attempted law-keeping! (Romans 3:28; 7; Galatians 2:16; 3:24)

“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

Note: Those working to earn salvation do not have saving grace – are not saved.

“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.” Ephesians 2:8-9

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

Men are “justified by faith” and kept “by faith.”

“Justified by faith”

“Therefore we conclude that a man is JUSTIFIED BY FAITH without the deeds of the law.” Romans 3:28

“Kept by faith”

“Who are KEPT by the power of God THROUGH FAITH unto salvation ready to be revealed in the last time.” 1 Peter 1:5

Justified by faith but sanctified by law keeping????

NOT. “The just (those justified by God) shall live by faith.”

Born again New Testament disciples are saved by grace through faith. They are saved, justified, and sanctified by faith. They live by faith and not by law or law keeping. See Hebrews 11:6.

“For therein is the righteousness of God revealed from faith to faith (not law to law): as it is written, The just shall live by faith (not law keeping).” Romans 1:17

“But that no man is justified by the law in the sight of God, it is evident: for, The just shall live BY FAITH.” Galatians 3:11

“Now the just shall live by faith: but if any man draw back (go back to law keeping), my soul shall have no pleasure in him.” Hebrews 10:38

“Cut Off”

TODAY, MAY God “cut off” every vile devil who seeks to bring God’s people back under the curse and yoke of the law, in Jesus’ name (Galatians!).

“I would they were even cut off which trouble you.” Galatians 5:12

ONLY Messiah kept the law perfectly….. no other man ever did…. only MESSIAH can save, not law…. “For whosoever shall keep the whole law, and yet offend in one point, he is guilty of all.” James 2:10

Only Jesus kept the law perfectly and then nailed it to the cross and “took it out of the way.” (Colossians 2:14-19) Law-keeping can’t save anyone. The Law simply reveals to us just how wicked we are (Romans 7). If law, law-keeping could save us, why did God send and allow His only begotten Son to be crucified for our sins? Have you ever read Galatians 2:16, 21? What about Romans 10:4? How Does God Justify a Person?

Breaking just 1 commandment makes us guilty of breaking the whole law – James 2:10.

Fake Jews?

The Holy Spirit through Paul tells us who the true and false jews are – “For he is not a Jew, which is one outwardly; 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

E. F. Kevan says:

“Paul saw that circumcision for justification was not the innocent little rite that the unthinking man might assume it to be. To undergo circumcision was to seek to be justified by a legalistic method of law-keeping, and thus to deny the very foundations of grace.”

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 only reason people are running around claiming they are going to “keep torah” is because they do not know and have up till now rejected Christ! The Jewish Messiah has already come and is the only one ever to perfectly keep torah – then he nailed it to the cross and took it away!!!

“Blotting out the handwriting of ordinances that was against us, which was contrary to us, and took it out of the way, nailing it to his cross;” Colossians 2:14

“For there are MANY unruly and vain talkers and deceivers, specially they of the circumcision (judaizers):” Titus 1:10

TORAH Turbulence Silenced with God’s Word

Recently, after times of severely, mercilessly blasting Judaizers a dear sister weighed in with the following (Galatians 2:4-5). This sister gets it!!! Anna Lisa writes:

“People who call themselves ‘Torah observant’ are actually anti-Christs (you’re right), because they are in actuality DENYING the TRUE and PERFECT work that ONLY CHRIST has fulfilled!”

Christ Has Set Us Free

In this passage below, being circumcised = being under the law, any part of it, such as keeping a sabbath day, etc. Law or grace? Each must choose between Moses (OT) and Jesus (NT). You are either under the law or under grace but not both. If you are antichrist enough to think you can be justified by your own laugh keeping, good luck dupe – because you are personally accountable to keep it all perfectly from birth thill the end of your life. And if you fail in just 1 point of the whole law, you are guilty of breaking it all before a holy God (James 2:10). Read carefully:

“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

Law vs Grace

Wondering Just What “Judaizing” Means?

Here it is in the words of Christ’s apostle Paul:

“And that because of false brethren unawares brought in, who came in privily (secretly) to spy out our liberty which we have in Christ Jesus, that they might bring us into bondage: 5 To whom we gave place by subjection, no, not for an hour; that the truth of the gospel might continue with you.” Galatians 2:4-5

Judaizers are those who seek to move saved people away from Christ and back under law! There is nothing in New Testament Scripture rebuked more severely than this antichrist evil. Paul didn’t give them even an hour of his time!

BEWARE OF THE CHRIST-DENYING TORAH KEEPING DEVILS:

JUST IN:

“What part of “I AM YHWH I change not” or Yeshivah sayaing “I have not come to do away with the law/torah but to fill it utterly full” or “not even the smallest part of the law/torah will pass away until it is ALL utterly brought into being” don’t you understand?”

REPLY:

WHAT part of “It is Finished” do you not understand? (John 19:30) SHOW US ALL where Jesus or His apostles ever even 1 time instructed NEW Testament saints to keep any certain day???? You are not saved. You are trusting in your own futile ability to keep the whole law perfectly and in utter need of repentance before it’s too late.

MAKE NO MISTAKE: The vain attempt of law-keeping for righteousness is the highest insult to the Almighty who sent His only begotten Son to die for our sins! (Galatians 2:21) Torah-Keeping Judaizing Devils Busted and Exposed as Hell Bound Frauds!!!

You are not good. “There is none righteous, no, not one.” (Romans 3:10). You have personally sinned against a holy God in many ways and are fully guilty. God isn’t concerned about how good you think you are but rather that you would honor how good he is – that He would crucify His only begotten Son for our sins! And, He calls you to repent and believe on the LORD Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins – before it’s too late. Judgment Day is on the way. Are you ready to make peace with God?

AMENNNN sister. The truth, when it owns us, inoculates us from heresies like this – which are soul damning.

Another one below…. Notice how this demonic witch below says that our salvation depends on knowing the Hebrew and Greek languages, 2 dead languages. Wow. In other words, the devil is speaking through her and saying that we really don’t have God’s Word. That He lied to us by not keeping His Word to preserve His Word to us in our own language (Psalms 12:6-7). She mentions nothing of Christ’s sacrifice which plainly proves she doesn’t know Him who paid the full price for the sins of the whole world on that cross! (John 19:30)

MESSAGE RECEIVED:

“The Pesach sacrifice of Messiah is finished, your interpretation is warped and not scriptural also in revelations it speaks of those following the laws/torah of Moses and of the lamb/Messiah please read the word and study out the languages for your salvation depends on it and you will answer for the blood of those who you lead away from the truth.”

REPLY:

Please show us all WHERE O WHERE is the all-elusive Bible verse in the NEW Testament Scriptures that instructs NEWWWW Testament saints saved by grace through faith to keep any certain day? Did the Almighty somehow forget to tell us something He wanted us to know? …. No. Repent. You are a hell bound judaizer.

More ….

There are LOTS of judaizers in our midst saints. They trust their own ability to keep the whole law, all the time, perfectly. In this, they’ve rejected perfect, one-time sacrifice of Christ on the cross (John 19:30; Colossians 1:14, etc.). These are antichrists which means they put something, anything in place of Christ. They vainly believe that Jesus was not enough to save and redeem them but rather that we have to help God out by keeping the Old law.

WHY did Jesus ever bother coming if men could be justified by their own futile attempt at law keeping or trying to keep the whole law? James 2:10 anybody?

“I do not frustrate the grace of God: for if righteousness come by the law, then Christ is dead in vain.” Galatians 2:21

If they don’t believe that Christ’s sacrifice was enough to redeem fully, they are not saved by grace (lost souls) but vainly believe keeping Torah (books of Moses) is going to save them. By rejecting Christ for law-keeping they have blasphemously denied Christ, the only Savior (John 1:17). PLEASE SHARE this post.

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!

The righteousness demanded by the law was not fulfilled under the law other than by Christ himself – who then took it away when He nailed it to the cross! (Colossians 2:14-19)

“For what the law could not do, in that it was weak through the flesh, 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 8:3-4

BEWARE of the judaizing snakes of the Hebrew Roots (HR) movement.

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.

ARE YOU A LAW-KEEPER/TORAH-KEEPER OR A CHRIST-KEEPER? (COLOSSIANS 2:14-19)

Some speak of sabbath, shalom, law-keeping, Torah, obedience to Moses’ law, etc. above Christ. RUN!

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

They are still under Moses and not under Jesus.

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

The Hebrew Roots (HR) movement is false, it’s a cloaked judaizing system designed by Satan to bring NEW Testament saints saved by grace back under the law… Galatians.

YES THE WHOLE 66 BOOK CANON OF THE BIBLE IS FOR US AND YET, IT REVEALS THAT A NEW COVENANT SUPERSEDED THE OLD ONE. THE BOOK OF HEBREWS REVEALS TO US THAT A “BETTER COVENANT” WITH “BETTER PROMISES” MADE THE OLD COVENANT OBSOLETE “FOR RIGHTEOUSNESS” (HEBREWS 7:22; 8:6; ROMANS 10:4). THE FAITH OF THE NEWWWW TESTAMENT SAINT, SAVED BY GRACE, IS NOT SET UPON TRYING TO KEEP THE LAW (“KEEPING TORAH”) BUT RATHER SET UPON THE ONLY ONE TO EVER KEPT THE LAW PERFECTLY – THEN HE, CHRIST, NAILED IT TO THE CROSS AND “TOOK IT OUT OF THE WAY” (COLOSSIANS 2:14-19). IT’S OVER SO REPENT AND GET OVER IT, NOW! THE INFINITELY INFERIOR OLD covenant WAS A MERE SHADOW OF THE INFINITELY SUPERIOR NEW TESTAMENT THAT WAS TO COME AND HAS COME WITH CHRIST! (HEBREWS 10:1) BEWARE OF THE DEMONIC JUDAIZING DEVILS IN OUR MIDST. THEY ARE SNAKES!

THOSE WHO TOUT “KEEP TORAH” MEAN TO SAY “YOU HAVE TO KEEP THE LAW TO BE RIGHTEOUS” AND ARE ANTICHRISTS….. THEY OPENLY DENY THE FULL SUFFICIENCY OF THE ONE, PERFECT SACRIFICE OF THE SON OF GOD WHO AS HE BLED ON CALVARY’S CRUEL CROSS CRIED “IT IS FINISHED” WHICH MEANS THAT THE PRICE FOR MANKIND’S SIN IS “PAID IN FULL” (JOHN 19:30).

Sabbath Keeping Devils Slammed | Judaizers Exposed

RECENTLY: WHENEVER I OFTEN RECEIVE EMAILS FROM TORAH-KEEPING DEVILS, I UNLOAD ON THEM, CALLING THEM TO REPENT AND GET SAVED.

Just replied to yet another Christ-denying Torah keeper who typically blames everything outside his cultish realm of beliefs on the catholic church. Here’s today’s response:

It’s time for you to cease making excuses for your damnable unbelief. When you really repent, you will trust Christ and Christ alone. And that has nothing to do with the antichrist catholic church. You’ve been duped into blaming everything that doesn’t agree with your false beliefs on the catholic church, just like the SDA (seventh day Adventist) cult does.

Torah Keepers vs New Testament Saints Saved by Grace

“But if ye bite and devour one another, take heed that ye be not consumed one of another.” Galatians 5:15 The nastiest emails received by this ministry is not from rebuked calvinists or eternal security heretics, or those who argue to defend fake “bibles”, but rather from those who trust their own supposed law-keeping ability instead of Christ. “For whosoever shall keep the whole law, and yet offend in one point, he is guilty of all.” James 2:10 If you’ve ever lied, one time, you are a guilty sinner. The same goes for using God’s name in vain, lusting (adultery), […]

Our Glorious Inheritance in Christ vs Messianic Antichrists [podcast] “For whosoever shall keep the whole law, and yet offend in one point, he is guilty of all.” James 2:10 So, if you have ever, even 1 time, lied, you are guilty of breaking the whole law and going to hell.

Beware of the Hebrew Roots Judaizing Snakes! [podcast]

BEWARE of the Judaizing snakes of the Hebrew Roots (HR) movement. Are YOU a law-keeper/Torah-keeper OR a Christ-keeper? (Colossians 2:14-19) Some speak of sabbath, shalom, law-keeping, Torah, obedience to Moses’ law, etc above Christ. RUN! God’s people are “justified by faith” in Jesus, not law (Romans 5:1, etc.). The problem is not with the types and shadows given us in Scripture of the Messiah who was to come. No, the issue here is with those who would bring you back under the law. LOTS of Judaizers in our midst saints…. vainly believing that Jesus was not enough to save and […]

Are New Testament Believers Under the Old Testament Law? [podcast]

Sabbath and Law-Keeping Devils Exposed [podcast] “And by him all that believe are justified from all things, from which ye could not be justified by the law of Moses.” Acts 13:39 BEWARE OF THE CHRIST-DENYING TORAH KEEPING DEVILS Gaebelein complains rightly: “A judaistic Christianity which, with a profession of Grace and the Gospel, attempts to keep the law and fosters legal righteousness is a greater abomination in the eyes of God than professing Israel in the past, worshipping idols.” You are either under Grace, Christ or under law/Moses (John 1:17). You must choose and it can’t be both. If you’ve […]

Abiding

What is our Highest Priority as we see Christ’s Return Nearing? [podcast]

What’s most important?

How do we want Christ to find us when He splits the eastern sky?

“And Jesus said unto him, No man, having put his hand to the plough, and looking back, is fit for the kingdom of God.” Luke 9:62

“Now the just shall live by faith: but if any man draw back, my soul shall have no pleasure in him.” Hebrews 10:38

“Therefore, my beloved brethren, be ye stedfast, unmoveable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, forasmuch as ye know that your labour is not in vain in the Lord.” 1 Corinthians 15:58

“And he said unto them, How is it that ye sought me? wist ye not that I must be about my Father’s business?” Luke 2:49

“And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come.” Matthew 24:14

“Say not ye, There are yet four months, and then cometh harvest? behold, I say unto you, Lift up your eyes, and look on the fields; for they are white already to harvest. 36 And he that reapeth receiveth wages, and gathereth fruit unto life eternal: that both he that soweth and he that reapeth may rejoice together. 37 And herein is that saying true, One soweth, and another reapeth. 38 I sent you to reap that whereon ye bestowed no labour: other men laboured, and ye are entered into their labours.” John 4:35-38

In light of the end time events transpiring before our eyes we are keeping our:

Eyes to Jesus (Luke 21:28; Colossians 3:1-4; Hebrews 12:1-3).
Hand to the plough of His work (Luke 9:62).

“…Work out your own salvation with fear and trembling. 13 For it is God which worketh in you both to will and to do of his good pleasure.” Philippians 2:12-13

“All we can do is not look left or right but keep our eyes on Jesus. He’s coming soon! This is becoming a time when people’s hearts will fail them for fear! Luke 21:26. Because our world is definitely being shaken. Our foundation needs to be built on Christ, not sinking sand (Matthew 7:24-27). Or we will fall. Building our house means not just hearing God’s Word but obeying Him. Build your life on the Word of God! Then when these things come to pass you will not fall.” Karen Cochran

“The kingdoms of this world are become the kingdoms of our Lord, and of his Christ; and he shall reign for ever and ever.” Revelation 11:15

Here’s one of the responses given to this man in that conversation:

“Nothing of this offends me. Just iron sharpening iron concerning sound doctrine (Titus 2:1). ‘But speak thou the things which become sound doctrine’ (Titus 2:1). 2 Peter 1:3-4 informs us that ‘ALL things that pertain unto life and godliness’ are found in God’s Word, in His ‘exceeding great and precious promises.’ Why then do we resort to using extra biblical symbolism, especially that which is out of a known pagan, blasphemous religion? Certainly the Holy Spirit is not behind such. If we are truly in Christ’s service, we should use Christ’s Word and not something contrary to it (Colossians 3:16; 2 Timothy 3:15-17). Do we not mislead when we do such?

There is no such thing as a Christian psychologist. Such must be denounced, and will be, unless we are still walking in the flesh and not the Spirit. Jesus taught against using titles (Matthew 23:8-12). Nothing Christian about Psychology. Title Touters safeguardyoursoul.com

Paul denounced….

“For we are the circumcision, which worship God in the spirit, and rejoice in Christ Jesus, and have no confidence in the flesh. 4 Though I might also have confidence in the flesh. If any other man thinketh that he hath whereof he might trust in the flesh, I more: 5 circumcised the eighth day, of the stock of Israel, of the tribe of Benjamin, an Hebrew of the Hebrews; as touching the law, a Pharisee; 6concerning zeal, persecuting the church; touching the righteousness which is in the law, blameless. 7 But what things were gain to me, those I counted loss for Christ. 8 Yea doubtless, and I count all things but loss for the excellency of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord: for whom I have suffered the loss of all things, and do count them but dung, that I may win Christ, 9 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; 11 if by any means I might attain unto the resurrection of the dead.” Philippians 3:3-11

Salvation, ministry, is all about Jesus Christ, not us.

“That no flesh should glory in his presence. 30 But of him are ye in Christ Jesus, who of God is made unto us wisdom, and righteousness, and sanctification, and redemption: 31 That, according as it is written, He that glorieth, let him glory in the Lord.” 1 Corinthians 1:29-31

“And I, brethren, when I came to you, came not with excellency of speech or of wisdom, declaring unto you the testimony of God. 2 For I determined not to know any thing among you, save Jesus Christ, and him crucified. 3 And I was with you in weakness, and in fear, and in much trembling. 4 And my speech and my preaching was not with enticing words of man’s wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power: 5 That your faith should not stand in the wisdom of men, but in the power of God.” 1 Corinthians 2:1-5

Asking the LORD to strip you and build you from the ground up – HIS way and no other. Ask Him to remove every trace, every iota of flesh, of deceit, of evil (2 Corinthians 7:1).

“See, I have this day set thee over the nations and over the kingdoms, to root out, and to pull down, and to destroy, and to throw down, to build, and to plant.” Jeremiah 1:10

“Sow to yourselves in righteousness, reap in mercy; break up your fallow ground: for it is time to seek the LORD, till he come and rain righteousness upon you.” Hosea 10:12

Stripped and Sanctified with Travis Bryan III [podcast]

WHO continues to get stronger and stronger? – “from strength to strength” ….

“They go from strength to strength, every one of them in Zion appeareth before God.’ Psalms 84:7

Those who appear, go before the LORD in private prayer will be increased in divine power!

The Love of Many Shall Wax Cold [podcast]

YOU know when you are listening to a wolf when He only speaks of God’s love for us but never about God’s command that we love Him – and if we don’t, we are going to hell. Beware. The LORD’s been 100% faithful to us and yet He requires our faithfulness to Him or hell awaits (Matthew 22:37-40). If someone’s love toward God’s people has waxed cold, it’s only because their love for the LORD first waxed cold (Matthew 24:10-14). Today is the best day to repent and return to the LORD. “And then shall many be offended, and shall […]

“See, I have this day set thee over the nations and over the kingdoms, to root out, and to pull down, and to destroy, and to throw down, to build, and to plant.” Jeremiah 1:10 “God allowed Job to be stripped. I was also thinking of Jeremiah 1:10. God uses what Satan meant to harm us for His good. Providence. Romans 8:28. As we know he did in Joseph’s life. I could be wrong but in this title is Satan getting credit for stripping us?” Karen Cochran Why Did God allow Job to Suffer, to be Tested? Job’s Suffering, Testing […]

The Lure and Peril of Titles and Taintings!

TODAY, many cross-less, self-serving wolves tout their great calling from God to be prophet, prophetess, bishop, apostle, etc. True disciples of Jesus proclaim they are undeservingly saved by the blood of Jesus and merely HIS servants. Kingdom echelon? If there is any echelon in Christ’s kingdom, perhaps this is it, right? …. “But he that is greatest among you shall be your SERVANT.” (Matthew 23:11) ALL who call themselves “apostle” or “prophet” are self-promoting. Most if not all today who claim to be prophets are frauds. Apostle and prophet are functions to serve God and OTHERS in and not for […]

Self-Appointed Title Touters

EXCUSE me WOLF, “apostle” or “prophet” are NOT titles to be used to promote yourself! Repent sinner! Title touters are completely SELF-centered and need to repent, lay down their lives, be crucified with Christ, and follow Jesus (Matthew 23:8-12). Are those who use titles not broadcasting their pride for all to see? Does Using Titles Draw Attention to Mere Men While Stealing Glory from Jesus Christ? JESUS CHRIST is the only Celebrity in Heaven. The last time a phony “celebrity” self-actualized, the LORD booted that devil! (Ezekiel 28:12-12-19; Luke 10:18) The fact that you dare call yourself an apostle or […]
