SALVATION IS FOREVER (2)

 


“Salvation is forever. You don’t get it, and l0se it, and hopefully get it back again; it is forever.” (John MacArthur, Bible teacher and author)

As for the d€vil, he wishes a believer can l0se their salvation, that’s why he brings temptations to introduce sin to the physical experience of believers.

He wishes that by making you fall into sin, he has succeeded in making you l0se your salvation.

Do you see his mal€volent game now?

So he tempts you into str!fe, wr@th, lust, pride, greed, envy, partiality, impure thoughts, and all manner of works of the flesh to tackle and trip you mentally or emotionally into thinking or feeling that you have lost your exclusive “saved” status.

But that’s a f00l’s game. He is totally wrong.

He uses f@lse friends and f@lse believers to accomplish this s@d!stic endeavor. But do you know what Christ said about those who cause others to stumble or s!n? It’s most h0rrible and t€rrible; you should research it—if you care to know.

The d€vil also uses false teaching/doctrine to cast aspersions on the perfect Work of Christ.

Thus, f@lse teachers, f@lse friends and f@lse believers are all indirectly working for S@tan, who is the father of all f@lsehoods and l!es.

They all seek to undermine the Sacrifice of Christ. 

They actually seek to erode the assurance of salvation and the joy of salvation in a believer. 

False teaching is a tool in the hands of S@tan.

The problem is that most people who ‘go to church’, ‘answered an altar call’ or recited a ‘sinner’s prayer’ and thus who presume that they are same are not saved, thus one must personally, honestly evaluate themselves to be sure that they are truly saved. 

As Paul would admonish believers in the Early Church: “make sure/certain your election (by God to salvation)” and “examine yourselves to see whether you are in the faith, or don’t you know that Christ dwells in you?”

Believers must seek to understand the truth of the Gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ.

The truth will make you free from the machinations and manipulations of the d€vil and his f@lsehood.

The devil is a li@r. F@lse preachers peddle l!es.

Christ is the Truth. Know Christ. Know the truth. 

“We are saved by Grace (God’s gift/act in Christ’s work) through Faith (God’s work in the heart of man by His Spirit/Word); and this is not of ourselves. It is the gift of God, not of works (human efforts to fulfill all the Holy Laws of Holy God), lest any man should boast.” (Paul the apostle of Christ to the Gentile world, by the inspiration of the Spirit to believers in Galatia, a region in central Asia Minor, namely, modern Turkey; parentheses mine).

We are blessed and saved by Almighty God.

Praise and honor be to the glory of His Grace.

THE ETHICAL BEAST

Image
A beast is an animal, especially a large or dangerous four-footed one. A wild animal. A beast is also a domestic animal, especially a bovine (meaning, relating to cattle) farm animal. Basic dictionary definitions. So, cattle are beasts.  A lion is a beast.  An eagle is a beast. A serpent is a beast.  Yes, a serpent. Let’s talk about that. Especially as Christ used it as some sort of behavioral reference and exemplar for us. He pointedly said: “Be wise as the serpent.” Oops!  “But,” He continued, “be harmless as the dove.” Okies! A serpent is a large snake. A snake, as studied and described by Science (Biology), is a reptile without limbs, voice, external ears, or eyelids, that has only one functional lung, and a long, slender body.  What are some evolutionary traits of the snake?  Stay with me. I know we don’t like snakes. But we are getting somewhere.  We’re learning something.  Snakes have a keen sense of smell, temperature and touch but generally poor eyesight (except night snakes

WHY TRUTH?

Image
  The following are questions that I have been curiously asked by some of the people who have read or heard what I write or say, over the years: “Why are you saying these things?” “Why are you sharing (biblical but unconventional) truths?  “Are you a pastor?” Let me break them down them into different possible thought processes that have generated them: In other words:  Who gave you the authority to say these things?  What (moral, spiritual or positional) right or ranking do you really have to speak publicly about them?  Are you holy, righteous or anointed enough to say things that obviously challenge (albeit in a non-confrontational way) the religious status quo? Or, are you just trying to rock the boat? Are you chasing clout or seeking cheap publicity? But do you not know or realize that it can ‘spoil market for’ (metaphorical colloquialism for: impede or jeopardize the economic prospects or viability of) many ‘pastors and churches’ and as a matter of fact the entire commercialized r

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
