Know this about God - He Does Not like Boasting

Brothers, think of what you were when you were called. Not many of you were wise by human standards; not many were influential; not many were of noble birth. But God chose THE FOOLISH things of the world to shame the wise; God chose THE WEAK things of the world to shame the strong. He chose THE LOWLY things of this world and the DESPISED THINGS - and the things that are not--to nullify the things that are, SO THAT NO ONE MAY BOAST BEFORE HIM. (1 Cor 1:26-29)
To realize what we were, when called by God, will help us eliminate such from our lips. (To boast is a manifestation of ignorance, like pride.)

Bezalel

Jesus Does Not Always Calm the Storm at Sea for Us!

When the apostles were fearfully thinking their boat would capsize and they would drown, Jesus spoke the word, at their request:
A furious squall came up, and the waves broke over the boat, so that it was nearly swamped. Jesus was in the stern, sleeping on a cushion. The disciples woke him and said to him, "Teacher, don't you care if we drown?" He got up, rebuked the wind and said to the waves, "QUIET! BE STILL!" Then the WIND DIED DOWN AND IT WAS COMPLETELY CALM. He said to his disciples, "Why are you so afraid? Do you still have no faith?" They were terrified and asked each other, "Who is this? Even the wind and the waves obey him!" (Mark 4:37-41)

In contrast, in Acts 27 we read of another storm at sea that would not be calmed. Though scripture doesn't mention it, it is reasonable to assume Paul prayed, but there was no change in his circumstances; the storm continued to rage on, and it might have even gotten worse:

When neither sun nor stars appeared for many days and the storm continued raging, we finally gave up all hope of being saved. (Acts 27:20)
Elsewhere, scripture says, in Hezekiah's case, "God left him to test him"!
But when envoys were sent by the rulers of Babylon to ask him about the miraculous sign that had occurred in the land, GOD LEFT HIM TO TEST HIM and to know everything that was in his heart (2 Chr. 32:31).

Maybe that simple truth about how God does things, AT TIMES, will help you better understand things that have happened in your own "race" when you prayed for God's deliverance, but it didn't come.

God Broke Peter Out of Jail, but NOT Paul

Suddenly an angel of the Lord appeared and a light shone in the cell. He struck Peter on the side and woke him up. "Quick, get up!" he said, and the chains fell off Peter's wrists. Then the angel said to him, "Put on your clothes and sandals." And Peter did so. "Wrap your cloak around you and follow me," the angel told him. Peter followed him out of the prison, but he had no idea that what the angel was doing was really happening; he thought he was seeing a vision. They passed the first and second guards and came to the iron gate leading to the city. It opened for them by itself, and they went through it. When they had walked the length of one street, suddenly the angel left him. (Acts 12:7-10)
As Paul discoursed on righteousness, self-control and the judgment to come, Felix was afraid and said, "That's enough for now! You may leave. When I find it convenient, I will send for you." At the same time he was hoping that Paul would offer him a bribe, so he sent for him frequently and talked with him. WHEN TWO YEARS HAD PASSED, Felix was succeeded by Porcius Festus, but because Felix wanted to grant a favor to the Jews, HE LEFT PAUL IN PRISON. (Acts 24:25-27)
Regardless what happens - stay faithful to God. Do not expect an easy journey to heaven, especially at this time. Ponder the following substantiating Scripture verses.
... strengthening the disciples and encouraging them to remain true to the faith. "We must go through many hardships to enter the kingdom of God," they said. (Acts 14:22)
Job had the winning attitude, during his excruciating test and trial, when he declared, "Though He slay me, I will still put my trust in him...." (Job 13:15)

We Are Being TESTED

"What is mankind that you make so much of them, that you give them so much attention, that you examine them every morning and test them every moment? (Job 7:17,18)

To be Refined like Silver and Tested like Gold, includes FIERY TESTS!

This third I will bring into the fire; I WILL REFINE THEM LIKE SILVER AND TEST THEM LIKE GOLD they will call on my name and I will answer them; I will say, 'They are my people,' and they will say, 'The LORD is our God.'" (Zec 13:9)
Therefore this is what the LORD Almighty says: "See, I WILL REFINE AND TEST THEM, for what else can I do because of the sin of my people? (Jer 9:7)

Jesus is ALIVE; you have a SOUL; your DEATH is getting closer; PREPARE TO MEET GOD.

Another Bible Mystery

through whom also he [Jesus] went and preached to the spirits in prison who disobeyed long ago when God waited patiently in the days of Noah while the ark was being built. In it only a few people, eight in all, were SAVED THROUGH WATER, (1 Pet 3:19,20)
Jesus preached to the lost souls (the "spirits in prison") who perished in the Great Flood. These will remain mysteries. WE DO KNOW THE ANSWERS. Those lost souls were not annihilated, nor were they unconscious in a 'soul sleep' condition, as the Jehovah's Witnesses and SDA would wrongly say. Jesus preached to them because they could hear it.

The earliest disciples wanted to know the TIMING of an END TIME Event:

So when they met together, they asked him, "Lord, are you at this time going to restore the kingdom to Israel?" He said to them: "IT IS NOT FOR YOU TO KNOW THE TIMES OR DATES the Father has set by his own authority." (Acts 1:6,7)
**That knowledge they wanted of the future was denied them, just like it is denied to us today - though we likewise would like to know the TIMING of key end time events. We are just told to continue to follow Jesus and to serve God to the end and don't be foolish virgins.

Daniel also asked for clarification about end time events, but his request was also denied

I heard, but I did not understand. So I asked, "My lord, what will the outcome of all this be? He replied, "Go your way, Daniel, because the words are rolled up and sealed until the time of the end. (Dan. 12:8,9)

See Daniel Prayed Poem

On an aside: while we cannot know the date, we can discern the season, though many things remain hidden.

Furthermore, know that we are in a time of great deceit (Dan. 8:25), and the kings of the earth are surely intentionally concealing the occurrence and progression of certain, key end-time events. Do not expect key bible events from the Middle East to be clearly announced.

But regardless of the time, we must bring extra oil for our lamps, and we must remain alert. Certain verses indicate a longer wait.

When THE BRIDEGROOM WAS DELAYED, they all became drowsy and fell asleep. (Mt. 25:5)
But suppose that servant is wicked and says to himself, 'MY MASTER IS STAYING AWAY A LONG TIME.' (Mt. 24:28)
And HE [beast, anti-Christ, etc] WILL speak great words against the most High, and WEAR OUT THE SAINTS ... (Dan. 7:25. NASB)
This calls for PATIENT ENDURANCE on the part of the people of God who keep his commands and remain faithful to Jesus. (Rev. 14:12; 13:10)

Spiritual Truths to Keep in Mind Now

__________________________________

God's Goodness Leads to Repentance (Rom. 2:4), but WHAT DOES THAT MEAN?

ANSWER: Only by comparing scripture with scripture will we know. The book of Amos gives us these specifics:
"I gave you empty stomachs in every city and lack of bread in every town, yet you have not returned to me," declares the LORD. "I also withheld rain from you when the harvest was still three months away. I sent rain on one town, but withheld it from another. One field had rain; another had none and dried up. People staggered from town to town for water but did not get enough to drink, yet you have not returned to me," declares the LORD. "Many times I struck your gardens and vineyards, I struck them with blight and mildew. Locusts devoured your fig and olive trees, yet you have not returned to me," declares the LORD. "I sent plagues among you as I did to Egypt. I killed your young men with the sword, along with your captured horses. I filled your nostrils with the stench of your camps, yet you have not returned to me," declares the LORD. "I overthrew some of you as I overthrew Sodom and Gomorrah. You were like a burning stick snatched from the fire, yet you have not returned to me," declares the LORD. (Amos 4:6-11)
**Before the prodigal repented, he was OUT OF MONEY AND STARVING:
"When he came to his senses, he said, 'How many of my father's hired men have food to spare, and here I am starving to death! I will set out and go back to my father and say to him: Father, I have sinned against heaven and against you. I am no longer worthy to be called your son; make me like one of your hired men.' (Luke 15:17-19)

God's ways are not our ways. (Isa. 55:8,9)

Dear friends, do not be surprised at the painful trial you are suffering, as though something strange were happening to you. But rejoice that you participate in the sufferings of Christ, so that you may be overjoyed when his glory is revealed. If you are insulted because of the name of Christ, you are blessed, for the Spirit of glory and of God rests on you. (1 Pet 4:12-14)

Should we always pray for sinful people?

So DO NOT PRAY FOR THIS PEOPLE NOR OFFER ANY PLEA OR PETITION FOR THEM; do not plead with me, for I will not listen to you. (Jer 7:16)
DO NOT PRAY FOR THIS PEOPLE NOR OFFER ANY PLEA OR PETITION FOR THEM, because I will not listen when they call to me in the time of their distress. (Jer 11:14)
Then the LORD said to me, " DO NOT PRAY FOR THE WELL-BEING OF THIS PEOPLE." (Jer 14:11)

How Does God View The Unsaved?

They "Would Not Believe," Then They "Could Not Believe"

Even after Jesus had done all these miraculous signs in their presence, they still WOULD NOT BELIEVE in him. This was to fulfill the word of Isaiah the prophet: "Lord, who has believed our message and to whom has the arm of the Lord been revealed?" For this reason they COULD NOT BELIEVE, because, as Isaiah says elsewhere: "He has blinded their eyes and deadened their hearts, so they can neither see with their eyes, nor understand with their hearts, nor turn - and I would heal them." (John 12:37-40)
The foregoing passage is another blow to Calvinism.

He will punish those who do not know God and DO NOT OBEY the gospel of our Lord Jesus. They will be punished with EVERLASTING DESTRUCTION and SHUT OUT FROM THE PRESENCE OF THE LORD AND FROM THE MAJESTY OF HIS POWER on the day he comes to be glorified in his holy people and to be marveled at among all those who have believed. This includes you, because you believed our testimony to you. (2 Th 1:8-10)

WOW! John the Baptist did NOT know he himself was Elijah (who would come)

They asked him, "Then who are you? Are you Elijah?" He said, "I am NOT."... (John 1:21)
Jesus stated at one point that Elijah had already come!
The disciples asked him, "Why then do the teachers of the law say that Elijah must come first?" Jesus replied, "To be sure, Elijah comes and will restore all things. But I tell you, Elijah has already come, and they did not recognize him, but have done to him everything they wished. In the same way the Son of Man is going to suffer at their hands." Then the disciples understood that he was talking to them about John the Baptist. (Mat 17:10-13)

John the Baptist was that "Elijah" of Malachi 4:5, the one who would be coming before the day of the LORD, but he did not know it. He was Elijah IN HIS SPIRIT AND POWER.

Many of the people of Israel will he bring back to the Lord their God. And he will go on before the Lord, in the SPIRIT AND POWER of Elijah, to turn the hearts of the fathers to their children and the disobedient to the wisdom of the righteous - to make ready a people prepared for the Lord. (Luke 1:16,17)
However, John the Baptist did know that he himself was the "voice" prophesied by Isaiah:
John replied in the words of Isaiah the prophet, "I am the voice of one calling in the desert, 'Make straight the way for the Lord.' " (John 1:23)
That detail about John being the "voice" and being the forerunner of Jesus reveals Jesus' deity, when compared to Isaiah 40:3.

FREE WILL is Allowed by God, Even to One's Eternal Destruction

But whoever sacrifices a bull is like one who kills a man, and whoever offers a lamb, like one who breaks a dog's neck; whoever makes a grain offering is like one who presents pig's blood, and whoever burns memorial incense, like one who worships an idol. THEY HAVE CHOSEN THEIR OWN WAYS, and their souls delight in their abominations; so I also will choose harsh treatment for them and will bring upon them what they dread. For when I called, no one answered, when I spoke, no one listened. They did evil in my sight and CHOSE WHAT DISPLEASES ME. (Isa 66:3,4)

Find true REST for your SOUL

This is what the LORD says: "Stand at the crossroads and look; ask for the ancient paths, ask where the good way is, and walk in it, and YOU WILL FIND REST FOR YOUR SOULS. But you said, 'We will not walk in it.' (Jer 6:16)
COME TO ME, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and YOU WILL FIND REST FOR YOUR SOULS. (Mat 11:28,29)

Backsliders Return to Spiritual Death

In King Jeroboam's case, the following is the reason why he backslid:
Jeroboam thought to himself, "The kingdom will now likely revert to the house of David. If these people go up to offer sacrifices at the temple of the LORD in Jerusalem, they will again give their allegiance to their lord, Rehoboam king of Judah. THEY WILL KILL ME AND RETURN to King Rehoboam." After seeking advice, the king made two golden calves. He said to the people, "It is too much for you to go up to Jerusalem. HERE ARE YOUR GODS, O ISRAEL, WHO BROUGHT YOU UP OUT OF EGYPT." (1 Ki 12:26-28)
At that time, Jeroboam spoke the same words Aaron spoke years before about the idol (golden calf) he made!
He took what they handed him and made it into an idol cast in the shape of a calf, fashioning it with a tool. Then they said, "THESE ARE YOUR GODS, O ISRAEL, WHO BROUGHT YOU UP OUT OF EGYPT." (Exo 32:4)
Sadly, there is NO EVIDENCE that Jeroboam ever returned to God and salvation.

See Spiritual Tragedies

Many in our dark hour do not realize that the backslidden need to repent for salvation sake.

I have treasured the words of his mouth more than my daily bread (Job 23:12).

If you think lying is not that serious, carefully read
Acts 5 and the ONE LIE from Ananias and Sapphira!

Jesus' GLORY before Earth is mentioned

Isaiah said this because HE SAW JESUS' GLORY and spoke about him. (John 12:41)
...I saw the Lord seated on a throne, high and exalted, and the train of his robe filled the temple. Above him were seraphs, each with six wings: With two wings they covered their faces, with two they covered their feet, and with two they were flying. And they were calling to one another: "Holy, holy, holy is the LORD Almighty; the whole earth is full of his glory." (Isa 6:1-3)
Jesus referred to his glory here:
And now, Father, glorify me in your presence WITH THE GLORY I HAD WITH YOU BEFORE THE WORLD BEGAN. (John 17:5)
EQUAL "GLORY" is given to Jesus and the Father in heaven (Rev. 5:12-14).

To Diligently Study the Scriptures is Good, but NOT Good Enough Alone, for Salvation

You diligently study the Scriptures because you think that by them you possess eternal life. These are the Scriptures that testify about me, YET YOU REFUSE TO COME TO ME TO HAVE LIFE. (John 5:39,40)
You must go to JESUS for eternal life. He is eternal life as also shown in 1 Jn. 5:12; 1:2. Also, consider this:
Now the Bereans were of more noble character than the Thessalonians, for they RECEIVED THE MESSAGE with great eagerness and EXAMINED THE SCRIPTURES every day to see if what Paul said was true. Many of the Jews BELIEVED, as did also a number of prominent Greek women and many Greek men. (Acts 17:11,12)

Your View of Scripture is Revealing

The Bereans did more than just hear and examine the scriptures - they RECEIVED THE MESSAGE and became believers. You too must act on the truths of scripture, which point to JESUS to have salvation:
I have declared to both Jews and Greeks that they must turn to God in repentance and have faith in our Lord Jesus. (Acts 20:21)
Do not merely listen to the word, and so deceive yourselves. Do what it says. (James 1:22)

An Encouraging Passage to Remember

Therefore we do not lose heart. Though outwardly we are wasting away, yet inwardly we are being renewed day by day. For our light and momentary troubles are achieving for us an eternal glory that far outweighs them all. So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen. For what is seen is TEMPORARY, but what is unseen is ETERNAL. (2 Cor. 4:16-18)

How DARK is it spiritually at this time? What is considered "Christian" throughout the WORLD?

In 2015, 31.2% of the world was considered Christian. Just over 50% of that number was Catholic (about 1.3 billion).

Mexico is considered 95% "Christian", but is filled with Mary idolaters and witchcraft - far from being real Bible-defined Christians. The false ecumenical unity of many of these Protestant leaders with Catholicism has stumbled many.

Moreover, Calvinism dominates the largest Protestant denominations worldwide, and the Southern Baptist is the largest in the USA.

That data reflects HOW FEW REAL CHRISTIANS really exist at this dark time.

Not everyone who says to me, 'Lord, Lord,' will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only he who does the will of my Father who is in heaven. (Mat 7:21)
They claim to know God, but by their actions they deny him.... (Titus 1:16)
Remember, in Noah's day only 8 people were saved (1 Peter 3:20), and the world population then could have been (MAYBE) 2 billion because they lived so long.

This is one of the MOST TERRIFYING Truths about Judgment Day:

SPEAK AND ACT as those who are going to be judged by the law that gives freedom, because JUDGMENT WITHOUT MERCY WILL BE SHOWN TO ANYONE WHO HAS NOT BEEN MERCIFUL. Mercy triumphs over judgment! (James 2:12,13)
**In part, we show "mercy" to others by forgiving people who sin against us:
But when that servant went out, he found one of his fellow servants who owed him a hundred denarii. He grabbed him and began to choke him. 'Pay back what you owe me!' he demanded. "His fellow servant fell to his knees and begged him, 'Be patient with me, and I will pay you back.' "But he refused. Instead, he went off and had the man thrown into prison until he could pay the debt. When the other servants saw what had happened, they were greatly distressed and went and told their master everything that had happened. "Then the master called the servant in. 'You wicked servant,' he said, 'I canceled all that debt of yours because you begged me to. Shouldn't you have had mercy on your fellow servant just as I had on you?' In anger his master turned him over to the jailers to be tortured, until he should pay back all he owed. "This is how my heavenly Father will treat each of you unless you forgive your brother from your heart." (Mat 18:28-35)
IMAGINE A JUDGMENT BEFORE AN ANGRY, ALMIGHTY GOD WITH NO MERCY! Such will be case for many before ETERNAL FIRE (Rev. 20:15).

BTW, it is an act of mercy and love to warn lost people about eternal fire.

God's Forgiveness is Conditional

What makes HEAVEN REJOICE reflects the heart of God?

In the same way, I tell you, there is rejoicing in the presence of the angels of God over one sinner who repents. (Luke 15:10)

>>>The salvation of SOULS is the answer.<<<

So he got up and went to his father. But while he was still a long way off, his father saw him and was filled with compassion for him; he ran to his son, threw his arms around him and kissed him. (Luke 15:20)
Here is a wonderfully amazing truth about God and his eager willingness to receive a repentant backslider back home. The Prodigal Son was in deliberate sin for perhaps many years, but the Father was glad to have him back a changed person from when he left. Also, this is the only time the Father is ever pictured as running. He also is shown here to kiss the prodigal!

Jerusalem in Jeremiah's Day

Go up and down the streets of Jerusalem, look around and consider, SEARCH THROUGH HER SQUARES. IF YOU CAN FIND BUT ONE PERSON WHO DEALS HONESTLY AND SEEKS THE TRUTH, I WILL FORGIVE THIS CITY. Although they say, 'As surely as the LORD lives,' still they are swearing falsely." O LORD, do not your eyes look for truth? You struck them, but they felt no pain; you crushed them, but they refused correction. They made their faces harder than stone and refused to repent. I thought, "These are only the poor; they are foolish, for they do not know the way of the LORD, the requirements of their God. So I will go to the leaders and speak to them; surely they know the way of the LORD, the requirements of their God." But with one accord they too had broken off the yoke and torn off the bonds. (Jer 5:1-5)
That was Jerusalem back then, this is Jerusalem during this last generation (now):
Their bodies will lie in the street of the great city, which is FIGURATIVELY CALLED SODOM AND EGYPT, where also their Lord was crucified. (Rev 11:8)

A man is not a Jew if he is only one outwardly, nor is circumcision merely outward and physical. No, a man is a Jew if he is one inwardly; and circumcision is circumcision of the heart, by the Spirit, not by the written code. Such a man's praise is not from men, but from God. (Rom 2:28,29)

In him you were also circumcised, in the putting off of the sinful nature, not with a circumcision done by the hands of men but with the circumcision done by Christ, (Col 2:11)

Jesus is NOT a mere great prince, as viewed by some. He is the majestic KING OF KINGS:

which God will bring about in his own time - God, the blessed and only Ruler, the King of kings and Lord of lords, (1 Tim 6:15)
They will make war against the Lamb, but the Lamb will overcome them because he is Lord of lords and King of kings - and with him will be his called, chosen and faithful followers." (Rev 17:14)
On his robe and on his thigh he has this name written: KING OF KINGS AND LORD OF LORDS. (Rev 19:16)

Jesus Has Many Titles and Names

__________________________________

Jesus is called "only-begotten" several times in the Scriptures (Jn. 1:14,18; 3:16,18; 1 Jn. 4:9). This term, however, does NOT mean he was created.

The same Greek word used to describe Jesus in this way (MONOGENES) is also used in Heb. 11:17 to describe Isaac's relationship to Abraham. Please note that Isaac was NOT Abraham's only child (Gen. 25:1,2) nor was he Abraham's first child (Gen. 16:15)! However, Isaac was the unique, one-of-a-kind son of Abraham, just as the Lord Jesus is the unique, one-of-a-kind Son of God, but NOT created.

Jesus is God in the Flesh

For the time will come when MEN WILL NOT PUT UP WITH SOUND DOCTRINE. Instead, to suit their own desires, they will gather around them a great number of teachers to say what their itching ears want to hear. THEY WILL TURN THEIR EARS AWAY FROM THE TRUTH AND TURN ASIDE TO MYTHS. (2 Tim 4:3,4)
Such people perceived the truth, but they would not receive the truth - to their own harm. They will be eternally lost.

What Really "Counts"?

ANSWER: Keeping God's Commands, Faith Expressing Itself through Love and the New Creation
Circumcision is nothing and uncircumcision is nothing. KEEPING GOD'S COMMANDS IS WHAT COUNTS. (1 Cor 7:19)
For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision nor uncircumcision has any value. THE ONLY THING THAT COUNTS IS FAITH EXPRESSING ITSELF THROUGH LOVE. (Gal 5:6)
Neither circumcision nor uncircumcision means anything; WHAT COUNTS IS A NEW CREATION. (Gal 6:15)
The "new creation in Christ" is a RADICAL INWARD CHANGE from darkness to light and from death to life. Have YOU personally experienced it?

__________________________________

OSAS proponents claim both of the following points for themselves:

(1) They were a "sinner" before getting "born again" [which is biblical ], and THEN,

(2) they say they continue to be a "sinner" even after they get saved, and even say, that 'they sin all the time'. Such is not biblical for real Christians.

OSAS advocates are also not concerned in the least about sin endangering their salvation and are clueless about spiritual death.

OSAS is a POWERLESS false 'gospel' against sin's addictions, and the proponents incriminate themselves by their own confession of habitual sinning, yet with no obvious concerns.

Antinomianism -- The Carnal Christian

The Image of a Christian In Our Present-Day

In contrast, THE REAL CONVERSION TO GOD has power to set one FREE from his sin addictions (Rom. 6:18; 6:22; Jn. 8:34-36). That is why we read verses like these:
You are witnesses, and so is God, of how holy, righteous and blameless we were among you who believed. (1 Thess 2:10) Can you identify with that verse as well as the with the following passage?
No one who lives in him keeps on sinning. No one who continues to sin has either seen him or known him. Dear children, do not let anyone lead you astray. He who does what is right is righteous, just as he is righteous. He who does what is sinful is of the devil... (1 John 3:6-8)

...They perish because THEY REFUSED to love the truth
and so be saved. (2 Th 2:10)

Mt. 25:41-46 is MOST STIRRING. Compare that to Rev. 20:10 and 2 Thess. 1:9 and ponder all those verses together for a blessing.

"Won't Inherit, But Will Enter" Error

How can some teach you won't inherit God's kingdom, but will still enter God's kingdom in those sins with such clear scriptures? That false teaching is a dangerous license to sin too.

NOTE: The same ones who do not "INHERIT" God's kingdom (over their personal sins), in 1 Cor. 6:9-10 and Eph. 5:5-7, go to the lake of fire (Rev. 21:8). NOTE the overlap between those passages proving this point.

He speaks out false doctrine (OSAS, etc.) between songs and/or through song lyrics, but because of his musical abilities, he remains in that lead position and continues being a definite serious SPIRITUAL DANGER to the saints!

It is MUCH BETTER to have NO worship leader than one who is a spiritual snare. The following is an example of a dangerous religious song:

Jesus, Friend of Sinners

"Cleansed from his PAST SINS" (not future sins too)

Referring to initial salvation, that is, getting 'born again', we read:
But if anyone does not have them, he is nearsighted and blind, and has forgotten that he has been CLEANSED FROM HIS PAST SINS. (2 Pet 1:9)
ANOTHER ISSUE ARISES: Sin committed after getting "born again." Can it defile and contaminate the previously purified heart? Can it bring about spiritual death to those who have eternal life? YES, to both questions. Hence, the tempter dangles sin before us (James 1:14-16).

There is NO Pre Forgiveness of Sins [AUDIO]

Someone asked him, "Lord, are only a few people going to be saved?" He said to them, "Make every effort to enter through the narrow door, because many, I tell you, will try to enter and will not be able to." (Luke 13:23,24)
And, "If it is hard for the righteous to be saved, what will become of the ungodly and the sinner?" (1 Pet 4:18)

Therefore he [Jesus] is able to save completely those who come to God through him [Jesus alone, NOT Jesus and Mary] because he always lives to intercede for them. (Heb 7:25)

Catholics: JESUS is our intercessor - not Mary.

Jesus OR Mary

More proof that physical death is the point when one's SPIRIT leaves his physical body (beside James 2:26):

When their spirit departs, they return to the ground; on that very day their plans come to nothing. (Psa 146:4)
The physical body goes to the ground and their earthly "plans come to nothing" when they die. For the pure in heart, we likewise read:
We are confident, I say, and would prefer to be away from the body and at home with the Lord. (2 Cor 5:8)
We FLY AWAY at death:
The length of our days is seventy years-- or eighty, if we have the strength; yet their span is but trouble and sorrow, for they quickly pass, and WE FLY AWAY. (Psa 90:10)

The worst kind of danger is spiritual danger because that can harm you throughout ETERNITY.

Such a danger makes sinful temptation and false doctrine infinitely DEADLY.

BE ON GUARD ESPECIALLY FOR SPIRITUAL DANGERS, (without also neglecting the physical dangers as well). We are living in perilous times, especially since the "war on the saints" is getting closer by the day.

Jesus is now ALMIGHTY

That truth, though often hated and denied, is confirmed in multiple ways:

1. Jesus himself testified to it twice:

Then Jesus came to them and said, "All authority [or power] in heaven and on earth has been given to me." (Mat 28:18)
"I am the Alpha and the Omega," says the Lord God, "who is, and who was, and who is to come, the Almighty." (Rev 1:8)

2. Scripture logic proves the same about Rev. 1:8 being Jesus:

Finally, Jesus is "eternal life" (1 Jn. 1:2) and is described in Rev. 1:8 as "who is, and who was, and who is to come".

Mary was referred to in OT scripture before she was born:

Therefore the Lord himself will give you a sign: THE VIRGIN will be with child and will give birth to a son, and will call him Immanuel. (Isa 7:14)
That verse does NOT say that Mary was sinless or that she was sovereign, omnipotent, the refuge of sinners, etc. like Catholics claim her to be. It just says the "VIRGIN" will be with child. (Afterwards, she had other children - Mt. 1:25; 13:55,56.)

IF everything were as it appears to be, we would not be told to TEST everything and to TEST everyone:

TEST EVERYTHING. Hold on to the good. (1 Thess 5:21)
Dear friends, do not believe every spirit, but TEST THE SPIRITS TO SEE WHETHER THEY ARE FROM GOD, because many false prophets have gone out into the world. (1 John 4:1)

**We live in world FULL OF DECEIT and the worst type of deceit is spiritual. **We TEST things with SCRIPTURE to identify the counterfeits and to KNOW the truth of God upon which we are commanded to act.

Keep Away From Them

To actually ENTER God's kingdom, you must die an "OVERCOMER".

Getting "born again" is the important START, but that is only the beginning: you must CONTINUE to the END in order to enter Paradise (Mt. 10:22; Heb. 3:14; Rev. 2:10,11; Gal. 6:8,9). Sadly, many fall away between the two points - that is, between initial and final salvation.

The following is just one verse of many that speaks to this harsh reality.

They believe FOR A WHILE, but in the time of testing they fall away. (Lk. 8:13)
The term "overcomer" implies that there must be things to overcome, and scripture mentions our spiritual battle, fight and struggle, which we must face, all while being persecuted for holy living. Various things are now involved.
In fact, everyone who wants to live a godly life in Christ Jesus will be persecuted, (2 Tim. 3:12)
