Eternal LIFE is only Given to those who are born again , whose Faith was and is in JESUS CHRIST .
These things i write unto you that you may KNOW you have eternal life and that ye may BELIEVE on JESUS CHRIST .
Without the SPIRIT no lamb WOULD endure unto the end .
The Christian scriptures were written by, and for those chosen for a role in heaven....that of “kings and priests” with Jesus Christ at the helm. (Rev 20:6) These are promised a “first resurrection”.
What are kings without subjects? And what role do priests play without sinners for whom to interceded and to guide in their worship? The redeemed human race has to be reconciled with God, because sin separated them from him, necessitating the role of Jesus as “mediator” because no sinful humans can approach God directly. Our prayers must be directed to the Father, “through” his Christ.
To assume that all “Christians” are ‘elected’ to go to heaven, does not fit in with what the Kingdom of God is all about.
What is God’s kingdom Amigo? And what purpose does it serve? What is the “good news” about it that we are instructed to tell others? (Matt 24:14; Matt 28:19-20)
Let us heed the SPIRIT and not the flesh .
Every word written is for our good and works good unto the hearer and doer of them .
The SPIRIT is our guide . For it is HE who works in us that which is WELL PLEASING unto GOD .
The thing is , many are following another jesus . one that accepts sins
one that came to serve their own lustful hearts desire
One that even denies the dire need to have BELIEVED on JESUS CHRIST .
And that other jesus wont be captilzed , for as you know , ITS NOT JESUS CHRIST and thus IT CANNOT save them
I have to agree with you here.....but the false Jesus is not a recent invention.....he was created very early in the history of the ancient “church”. Jesus himself, as well as the apostles, foretold that an apostasy would take over the church and corrupt it, just as the Pharisees had corrupted Judaism. (Matt 13:24-30; 36-42. “the wheat and the weeds”)
Paul said that it was “already at work” toward the end of the first century. (2 Thess 2:1-8)
If Christianity was corrupted all those centuries ago, then what is accepted today as genuine “Christianity”....is not the real thing, and what is accepted as truth, is satanic lies created by the devil in a fake or counterfeit “Christianity” that serves no one but the one who created it. It is designed to present a different God to the one Jesus preached, and a different Jesus to the one that the Bible speaks about.
Red flags should have been raised centuries ago...not just now, but the early church became so powerful and so corrupt that anyone challenging its authority was silenced, just as Jesus was silenced.
History teaches us so many things if we allow it to.
“Those who do not learn from the errors of the past, are doomed to repeat them”....we know this for a fact.
So in this world, where we now stand at the brink of the “harvest” and the “reapers” are poised to gather the “weeds”......where do we stand as individuals in God’s eyes? Have we been duped by the great pretender and accepted the counterfeit “hook, line and sinker”? Or are we alert to the sign of the times when Jesus foretold that God would appoint a “faithful and wise slave” to lead his true worshippers out of that confused rabble that calls itself “Christianity”, and into a new pen of truth, that to the majority looks like “a den of iniquity”. (John 15:18-21) How did Jesus appear to the majority of Jews? He was there to guide “the lost sheep” into a new pen, but as he foretold, a relative “few” were attracted to it....most stuck to the comfortable lies that they had accepted from childhood, instead of embracing what appeared to the masses to be “an uncomfortable truth”...an apostasy! This is our biggest test. We have to choose where we stand on all those issues relating to God’s kingdom and who is chosen to rule in it. We can’t all have “the heavenly calling” (Heb 3:1) as all “saints” and no one to rule or to guide in worship, would be pointless.
Paul addressed his first letter to the Corinthians.....
“Paul, called to be an apostle of Christ Jesus by God’s will, and Sosʹthe·nes our brother, 2 to the congregation of God that is in Corinth, to you who have been sanctified in union with Christ Jesus, called to be saints” together with all those everywhere who are calling on the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, their Lord and ours:
3 May you have undeserved kindness and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.”
Do you see a distinction between those who are called “saints” “TOGETHER WITH all those everywhere who care calling on the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, THEIR LORD AND OURS”.
So not all Christians are chosen to be “saints”.....these are “the elect” or the “chosen ones”. What are they chosen for? Rulership and priesthood for those who are also saved, but who live live on earth, where God placed humankind in the first place. God never rescinded his first purpose. (Isaiah 55:11) It will still become a reality.
Revelation 21:2-4 will see its fulfillment. The Kingdom will rule “men”...humans on earth.
Now put those hands up and let all who name the name of Christ depart from inquity .
Heed the Spirit , stay in the bible , be in prayer and endure faithful unto the end .
If that which ye have heard shall remain in you then ye shall continue in the Son and in the Father .
But if one takes off from believing the true gospel and takes hold
upon what is known as the inclusive social many path to GOD lie , THEY WILL FALL from their own steadfastness .
It is true if one comes out they were never truly of us . It is true that all apostles also warned and knew
we must continue in HIM to the end . Reminding the church about that is a GOOD thing
as are all the reminders in the bible . Ye are saved by grace , through FAITH IN JESUS CHRIST .
THIS IS the GIFT OF GOD . now raise those hands cause its LORD praising time .
As foretold, “the church” has strayed into so many sects and denominations, all teaching different things but still claiming to be “the body of Christ”....yet NO “body” can exist dismembered.
1 Cor 1:10 must apply to the genuine disciples of Christ.....
“Now I urge you, brothers, through the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that you should all speak in agreement and that there should be no divisions among you, but that you may be completely united in the same mind and in the same line of thought.”
The Holy Spirit unites Christians....it does not divide them....but the truth does. The separating of the “wheat from the weeds” who have been left to grow in the same “field”, is taking place as we speak. When Christ manifests as judge of all of us, he will know which is which, even if we do not. There is going to be some very shocked “Christians” who were never “drawn” by the Father because they loved the lies and denied the truth. (Matthew 7:21-23; John 6:44, 65; 2 Thess 2:9-12)
This is decision time......and the end is so close.....love of God has to include love of the truth.....so what is the truth? We must decide that in our own hearts.
