FALSE SENSE OF ETERNAL SECURITY

 

 

Does walking an aisle in response to an “altar call” automatically mean a person is saved?

Does repeating or reciting a “sinner’s prayer” bestow eternal life to anyone who does so?

*******

Any preacher that assures a soul of salvation…

Because they responded to an “altar call”…

Or repeated a ‘prayer’ recital after them…

May be toying with the eternal fate of souls…

By offering them a false sense of “salvation”…

Without them hearing the true gospel of Christ.

Without them seeing their real need of a Savior.

Without them truly putting their faith in Jesus.

Without God’s birthing of saving faith in them.

Without the working of the Spirit in their heart.

Without sowing the message of Christ in them.

Without the mighty work of the Cross of Christ.

Without Christ’s death, burial and resurrection.

Without the opening of the eye to see Jesus.

Without genuine work of repentance from sin.

Without truly surrendering to the Lord Jesus.

Without the revelation of God’s love and grace.

*******

One of the falsehoods of the last days…

Will be false salvation or false conversions…

Which are direct products of false gospels.

Most assuredly, as foretold by Christ…

“For there shall arise false Christs and false prophets…”

Yes, false Christianity and false proclamations or professions of Christianity…

False pastors, false churches, false Christians.

*******

Beware of a false sense of eternal security.

“Make certain your election…”

If you must play with anything…

If you will be unsure about anything…

If we’re unbothered about anything…

Certainly not our own priceless soul.

Certainly not our eternal destination.

Surely not the salvation of our souls.

Surely not our knowledge of Christ.

Definitely not our relationship with God. 

No, no, no!

STOP!

*******

Oh, my soul, be you not an eternal fool…

When it is time for the Lord to recall you…

Out of this passing time into permanent timelessness.

Selah!

Use this time to make peace or union with God.

Humble yourself in your lifetime to know God.

Empty yourself of the pride of life to learn Christ.

Make sure you’re aligning yourself to the Lord.

Assume not. Presume not.

Think. Rethink.

*******

“Therefore, my brothers and sisters, make every effort to confirm your calling and election. For if you do these things, you will never stumble.” (NIV)

“Therefore, believers, be all the more diligent to make certain about His calling and choosing you [be sure that your behavior reflects and confirms your relationship with God]; for by doing these things [actively developing these virtues], you will never stumble [in your spiritual growth and will live a life that leads others away from sin].” (AMP)

“Test yourselves to discover whether you are true believers: put your own selves under examination. Or do you not know that Jesus Christ is within you, unless you are insincere?” (WNT)

“Try your own selves, whether ye are in the faith; prove your own selves. Or know ye not as to your own selves, that Jesus Christ is in you? unless indeed ye be reprobate.” (ASV)

To God be the glory.

DESTROY THIS TEMPLE

Image
  "Destroy this sanctuary, and in three days I will raise it up."   The words of the Lord Jesus to the dangerous and conniving religious leaders of His day who sought to kill Him and thus to silence the Truth of Yahweh (YHWH). He said this in reply to their demand for a miraculous sign in query of the authority He had to chase the money changers and merchandise sellers from the Temple just after He had cleared the Temple of these economic profiteering activities in the (falsely) religious space.  This same Christ who is the Truth gave His Word and Spirit of Truth to His Apostles who, as He had done, also bore witness to the Truth even with their lives and passed the same Truth down to the Church, which is the Body of Christ, who is the Only Head of His One Body. Selah. To be clear, we don't need to chase any religious merchant from their self-owned religious centres or overturn any tables. We only need to "bear witness to The Truth" and "earnestly contend f

WORSHIP!

  What is Worship? Worship is reverential adoration and devotion. It is the deeply embedded heart attitude and habitual practice of holding highest regard, giving supreme adulation, paying unparalleled homage, rendering foremost service or according topmost dedication to someone or something.  Human beings were designed to worship. This means, we are all naturally wired to be devoted to something or someone we reckon or perceive to be most grandiose or to be the greatest Thing or Being worthy of our keenest attention, truest affection, deepest love and highest loyalty.

SCRIPTURE IS INERRANT AND SUFFICIENT

Image
  The Holy Scripture is inerrant and sufficient. Inerrant simply means incapable of being wrong. Sufficient of course means enough or adequate. To deny the inerrancy of Scripture is to call into question and cast doubt on the God revealed in the Scripture, on Christ who died, rose and is coming back as Judge and King, and on man’s salvation from eternal damnation which is solely based on the Cross and Work of Christ, the Word of God.  Scripture is either true or the God of the Bible, who is the God of love and righteousness, mercy and justice, grace and truth, revealed by and in the Lord Jesus Christ as “Our Father who is in Heaven” is not real but a fable or figment of man's imagination.  The Bible is the absolute truth of God. Albeit misunderstood and misused by so many in the false profession and practice of Christian religion for inglorious purposes and transient benefits, the Bible is essentially about the Gospel of Christ, which is the power of God unto salvation to everyone
