Christmas. Jesus Was Born To Save The World.

Christmas is Biblical. Christmas is the Celebration of Jesus being Born to Save the World from their Sins.

The Bible does not command or tell us to Celebrate Christmas Jesus being Born. I know Christians who Celebrate Christmas. I know Christians who do not Celebrate Christmas. This message is not about telling people to Celebrate Christmas or not to celebrate Christmas. It is about what the Bible says about Jesus Birth.

I Praise Jesus Daily For Being Born. His Sinless Life. For Laying Down His Life To Save Me.

The Christian Biblical Celebration of Christmas is about Jesus (The mystery of God in the flesh. Jesus leaving Heaven to be born a helpless Child.) being born to Save us from our Sins.  Jesus birth is connected to his Death, Burial and Resurrection. That paid (Paid In Full) the entire Sin Debt of the Human Race. Because Jesus had to be Born a human child. He had to live a sinless life to be a worthy sacrifice.  Jesus Innocent Blood Atonement was the only way to Save Mankind from the Penalty of Sin.

Isaiah 9:6 “For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace.”

Luke 2:8 And there were in the same country shepherds abiding in the field, keeping watch over their flock by night.

9 And, lo, the angel of the Lord came upon them, and the glory of the Lord shone round about them: and they were sore afraid.

10 And the angel said unto them, Fear not: for, behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy, which shall be to all people.

11 For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Saviour, which is Christ the Lord.

12 And this shall be a sign unto you; Ye shall find the babe wrapped in swaddling clothes, lying in a manger.

13 And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God, and saying,

14 Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men.

15 And it came to pass, as the angels were gone away from them into heaven, the shepherds said one to another, Let us now go even unto Bethlehem, and see this thing which is come to pass, which the Lord hath made known unto us.

Matthew 2:1 Now when Jesus was born in Bethlehem of Judaea in the days of Herod the king, behold, there came wise men from the east to Jerusalem,

2 Saying, Where is he that is born King of the Jews? for we have seen his star in the east, and are come to worship him.

3 When Herod the king had heard these things, he was troubled, and all Jerusalem with him.

4 And when he had gathered all the chief priests and scribes of the people together, he demanded of them where Christ should be born.

5 And they said unto him, In Bethlehem of Judaea: for thus it is written by the prophet,

6 And thou Bethlehem, in the land of Juda, art not the least among the princes of Juda: for out of thee shall come a Governor, that shall rule my people Israel.

7 Then Herod, when he had privily called the wise men, enquired of them diligently what time the star appeared.

8 And he sent them to Bethlehem, and said, Go and search diligently for the young child; and when ye have found him, bring me word again, that I may come and worship him also.

9 When they had heard the king, they departed; and, lo, the star, which they saw in the east, went before them, till it came and stood over where the young child was.

10 When they saw the star, they rejoiced with exceeding great joy.

11 And when they were come into the house, they saw the young child with Mary his mother, and fell down, and worshipped him: and when they had opened their treasures, they presented unto him gifts; gold, and frankincense, and myrrh.

Luke 2:7 And she brought forth her firstborn son, and wrapped him in swaddling clothes, and laid him in a manger; because there was no room for them in the inn.

8 And there were in the same country shepherds abiding in the field, keeping watch over their flock by night.

9 And, lo, the angel of the Lord came upon them, and the glory of the Lord shone round about them: and they were sore afraid.

10 And the angel said unto them, Fear not: for, behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy, which shall be to all people.

11 For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Saviour, which is Christ the Lord.

12 And this shall be a sign unto you; Ye shall find the babe wrapped in swaddling clothes, lying in a manger.

13 And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God, and saying,

14 Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men.

15 And it came to pass, as the angels were gone away from them into heaven, the shepherds said one to another, Let us now go even unto Bethlehem, and see this thing which is come to pass, which the Lord hath made known unto us.

16 And they came with haste, and found Mary, and Joseph, and the babe lying in a manger.

17 And when they had seen it, they made known abroad the saying which was told them concerning this child.

18 And all they that heard it wondered at those things which were told them by the shepherds.

19 But Mary kept all these things, and pondered them in her heart.

20 And the shepherds returned, glorifying and praising God for all the things that they had heard and seen, as it was told unto them.

We would be Lost completely without any Hope if Jesus had not been Born.

Jesus’s Birth fulfilled God’s Promised, Bible Prophecy to Send Jesus the Saviour to Earth.

Jesus my Savior Left his throne in Heaven to be Born a Man. (A huge sacrifice. A mystery the Bible says we cannot comprehend.) So He could Save me!!!

Christmas is a time to openly Praise and Celebrate Jesus Birth before the Whole World. For six weeks or so. This is a GOOD THING TO DO. Christmas is not Santa Claus, Elves, Wreaths, Stockings, Decorated Pine Trees and all the rest. You can Celebrate Christmas without all the Secular trappings.

I am not Ashamed to Proclaim Jesus to the Whole World to Share the Gospel.

Romans 1:16 “For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.”

Salvation is clearly explained in the Bible:

2 Corinthians 11:3 But I fear, lest by any means, as the serpent beguiled Eve through his subtilty, so your minds should be corrupted from the simplicity that is in Christ.
4 For if he that cometh preacheth another Jesus, whom we have not preached, or if ye receive another spirit, which ye have not received, or another gospel, which ye have not accepted, ye might well bear with him.

The problem is that most people trust the most important decision in their life to other people.

We are Saved by believing the Gospel only.

The Gospel of Jesus Christ is the Power of God.

The Gospel:

1st Corinthians 15:1 Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand;
2 By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain.
3 For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures;
4 And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:

This is the Gospel that Jesus Preached. The Gospel Peter, Paul, James, John every Apostle and Disciple of Jesus preached.

The Bible warns of believing Another Gospel that was not preached by Jesus and his Disciples.

Many Churches teach that Jesus never taught / preached the Gospel. That we cannot follow Jesus’s Teachings. Instead of Matthew, Mark, Luke and John’s Gospel’s which we are to reject. We can only take Salvation passages and Bible Doctrine from some of the books that the Apostle Paul wrote.

Jesus did teach the Gospel:

Luke 9:18 And it came to pass, as he was alone praying, his disciples were with him: and he asked them, saying, Whom say the people that I am?
19 They answering said, John the Baptist; but some say, Elias; and others say, that one of the old prophets is risen again.
20 He said unto them, But whom say ye that I am? Peter answering said, The Christ of God.
21 And he straitly charged them, and commanded them to tell no man that thing;
22 Saying, The Son of man must suffer many things, and be rejected of the elders and chief priests and scribes, and be slain, and be raised the third day.

Verse 22 is the Gospel plain and Clear.

22 “Saying, The Son of man must suffer many things, and be rejected of the elders and chief priests and scribes, and be slain, and be raised the third day.”

More verses:

Luke 18:31 Then he took unto him the twelve, and said unto them, Behold, we go up to Jerusalem, and all things that are written by the prophets concerning the Son of man shall be accomplished.
32 For he shall be delivered unto the Gentiles, and shall be mocked, and spitefully entreated, and spitted on:
33 And they shall scourge him, and put him to death: and the third day he shall rise again.
34 And they understood none of these things: and this saying was hid from them, neither knew they the things which were spoken.

Luke 24:7 “Saying, The Son of man must be delivered into the hands of sinful men, and be crucified, and the third day rise again.”

Mark 9:31 “For he taught his disciples, and said unto them, The Son of man is delivered into the hands of men, and they shall kill him; and after that he is killed, he shall rise the third day.”

Mark 10:33 Saying, Behold, we go up to Jerusalem; and the Son of man shall be delivered unto the chief priests, and unto the scribes; and they shall condemn him to death, and shall deliver him to the Gentiles:
34 And they shall mock him, and shall scourge him, and shall spit upon him, and shall kill him: and the third day he shall rise again.

Matthew 16:21 From that time forth began Jesus to shew unto his disciples, how that he must go unto Jerusalem, and suffer many things of the elders and chief priests and scribes, and be killed, and be raised again the third day.
22 Then Peter took him, and began to rebuke him, saying, Be it far from thee, Lord: this shall not be unto thee.
23 But he turned, and said unto Peter, Get thee behind me, Satan: thou art an offence unto me: for thou savourest not the things that be of God, but those that be of men.

John 2:19 Jesus answered and said unto them, Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up.
20 Then said the Jews, Forty and six years was this temple in building, and wilt thou rear it up in three days?
21 But he spake of the temple of his body.
22 When therefore he was risen from the dead, his disciples remembered that he had said this unto them; and they believed the scripture, and the word which Jesus had said.

John 10:17 Therefore doth my Father love me, because I lay down my life, that I might take it again.
18 No man taketh it from me, but I lay it down of myself. I have power to lay it down, and I have power to take it again. This commandment have I received of my Father.

Jesus did teach the Gospel. Jesus taught to be Saved all a person had to do was to Believe in him.

The people of his day knew the Scriptures foretold of the coming Messiah that would Save them.

When Jesus told them to Believe on him to be Saved they understood he was the promised Messiah that would Save them from the penalty of all of their Sins.

John 11:23 Jesus saith unto her, Thy brother shall rise again.
24 Martha saith unto him, I know that he shall rise again in the resurrection at the last day.
25 Jesus said unto her, I am the resurrection, and the life: he that believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live:
26 And whosoever liveth and believeth in me shall never die. Believest thou this?
27 She saith unto him, Yea, Lord: I believe that thou art the Christ, the Son of God, which should come into the world.

The Scriptures that foretold the coming Messiah:

Zechariah 9:9 Rejoice greatly, O daughter of Zion; shout, O daughter of Jerusalem: behold, thy King cometh unto thee: he is just, and having salvation; lowly, and riding upon an ass, and upon a colt the foal of an ass.
10 And I will cut off the chariot from Ephraim, and the horse from Jerusalem, and the battle bow shall be cut off: and he shall speak peace unto the heathen: and his dominion shall be from sea even to sea, and from river even to the ends of the earth.
11 As for thee also, by the blood of thy covenant I have sent forth thy prisoners out of the pit wherein is no water.

Micah 5:2 “But thou, Bethlehem Ephratah, though thou be little among the thousands of Judah, yet out of thee shall he come forth unto me that is to be ruler in Israel; whose goings forth have been from of old, from everlasting.”

Isaiah 7:14 “Therefore the Lord himself shall give you a sign; Behold, a virgin shall conceive, and bear a son, and shall call his name Immanuel.”

Immanuel, meaning “God with us,” is a prophecy that announces the presence of God with his people, and which is ultimately fulfilled in the arrival of the incarnate Son of God in the womb of the virgin Mary. (Matthew 1:22,23)

Matthew 1:22 Now all this was done, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken of the Lord by the prophet, saying,

23 Behold, a virgin shall be with child, and shall bring forth a son, and they shall call his name Emmanuel, which being interpreted is, God with us.

24 Then Joseph being raised from sleep did as the angel of the Lord had bidden him, and took unto him his wife:

25 And knew her not till she had brought forth her firstborn son: and he called his name Jesus.

Isaiah 9:6 For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace.
7 Of the increase of his government and peace there shall be no end, upon the throne of David, and upon his kingdom, to order it, and to establish it with judgment and with justice from henceforth even for ever. The zeal of the LORD of hosts will perform this.

Isaiah 62:11 Behold, the LORD hath proclaimed unto the end of the world, Say ye to the daughter of Zion, Behold, thy salvation cometh; behold, his reward is with him, and his work before him.
12 And they shall call them, The holy people, The redeemed of the LORD: and thou shalt be called, Sought out, A city not forsaken.

Isaiah 53:1 Who hath believed our report? and to whom is the arm of the Lord revealed?
2 For he shall grow up before him as a tender plant, and as a root out of a dry ground: he hath no form nor comeliness; and when we shall see him, there is no beauty that we should desire him.
3 He is despised and rejected of men; a man of sorrows, and acquainted with grief: and we hid as it were our faces from him; he was despised, and we esteemed him not.
4 Surely he hath borne our griefs, and carried our sorrows: yet we did esteem him stricken, smitten of God, and afflicted.
5 But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed.
6 All we like sheep have gone astray; we have turned every one to his own way; and the Lord hath laid on him the iniquity of us all.
7 He was oppressed, and he was afflicted, yet he opened not his mouth: he is brought as a lamb to the slaughter, and as a sheep before her shearers is dumb, so he openeth not his mouth.
8 He was taken from prison and from judgment: and who shall declare his generation? for he was cut off out of the land of the living: for the transgression of my people was he stricken.
9 And he made his grave with the wicked, and with the rich in his death; because he had done no violence, neither was any deceit in his mouth.
10 Yet it pleased the Lord to bruise him; he hath put him to grief: when thou shalt make his soul an offering for sin, he shall see his seed, he shall prolong his days, and the pleasure of the Lord shall prosper in his hand.

11 He shall see of the travail of his soul, and shall be satisfied: by his knowledge shall my righteous servant justify many; for he shall bear their iniquities.
12 Therefore will I divide him a portion with the great, and he shall divide the spoil with the strong; because he hath poured out his soul unto death: and he was numbered with the transgressors; and he bare the sin of many, and made intercession for the transgressors.

The Gospel of Jesus Christ was understood and Believed by Old Testament Believers. 

Old Testament Believers were not saved by animal sacrifices:

Hebrews 10:4 “For it is not possible that the blood of bulls and of goats should take away sins.”

The Old Testament sacrifices pointed towards the one sacrifice that Jesus would make on the cross to bring Eternal Salvation.

Like New Testament believers, Old Testament believers were (SAVED) Justified by Grace through Faith in the Lord Jesus Christ the coming Messiah.

Abraham:

Genesis 15:6 “And he believed in the Lord; and he counted it to him for righteousness.”

Galatians 3:6 Even as Abraham believed God, and it was accounted to him for righteousness.
7 Know ye therefore that they which are of faith, the same are the children of Abraham.
8 And the scripture, foreseeing that God would justify the heathen through faith, preached before the gospel unto Abraham, saying, In thee shall all nations be blessed.
9 So then they which be of faith are blessed with faithful Abraham.
10 For as many as are of the works of the law are under the curse: for it is written, Cursed is every one that continueth not in all things which are written in the book of the law to do them.
11 But that no man is justified by the law in the sight of God, it is evident: for, The just shall live by faith.

You must understand that there is only one true Gospel.

The Bible here in Galatians 3 said that God preached the Gospel to Abraham.

Galatians 1:6 I marvel that ye are so soon removed from him that called you into the grace of Christ unto another gospel:
7 Which is not another; but there be some that trouble you, and would pervert the gospel of Christ.
8 But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel unto you than that which we have preached unto you, let him be accursed.
9 As we said before, so say I now again, If any man preach any other gospel unto you than that ye have received, let him be accursed.

Dispensationalism’s biggest Lie is there are many different Gospel’s. Yes they believe there are many different ways for people to be Saved. They teach multiple plans of Salvation / multiple Gospel’s. When the Bible clearly says there is only one Gospel / only one plan of Salvation for all of humanity.

Abraham was not Saved by Works. No one in the Bible is Saved by Works.

Abraham (Plus you, I, everyone in History that has been and will be Saved) was Saved by Grace Faith in Jesus Christ our Lord and Saviour.

Salvation is Simple. Read the Scriptures for yourself and Believe on Jesus only to Save you.

Judas Betrayed Jesus With A Kiss. Betrayal is Costly.

Judas Betrayed Jesus. Everyone feels the Cost of Betrayal. Betrayal is Evil, it is Costly:

All of Our Lives are Typically Full of Betrayal. Often our “Friends” and our Family Betrays us. So, the Personal Cost of Betrayal is High. Sometimes the person who Betrayed you faces a high Cost because of their Betrayal. Judas for instance committed Suicide by Hanging himself. Betrayal always Hurts Deeply. 

Satan is the Cause of All Betrayal. Satan Went into Judas’s Body to Personally Betray Jesus. Judas was a Willing Vessel of Satan’s. Satan Betrayed God in the Beginning:

Luke 22:3 Then entered Satan into Judas surnamed Iscariot, being of the number of the twelve. 4 And he went his way, and communed with the chief priests and captains, how he might betray him unto them. 5 And they were glad, and covenanted to give him money. 6 And he promised, and sought opportunity to betray him unto them in the absence of the multitude. 

This was a Massive Conspiracy Against Jesus. For Judas to Betray Jesus. This Betrayal was So Very Costly. It Cost Jesus Everything!!!! At the End of this Evil Betrayal Jesus and Judas were Both Dead!!!!

30 Pieces of Silver: The Price for Judas’s Betrayal of Jesus:

Matthew 26:15 And said unto them, What will ye give me, and I will deliver him unto you? And they covenanted with him for thirty pieces of silver.

Judas’s Complete Betrayal of Jesus in Luke Chapter 22:

Luke 22:1 Now the feast of unleavened bread drew nigh, which is called the Passover. 2 And the chief priests and scribes sought how they might kill him; for they feared the people. 3 Then entered Satan into Judas surnamed Iscariot, being of the number of the twelve. 4 And he went his way, and communed with the chief priests and captains, how he might betray him unto them. 5 And they were glad, and covenanted to give him money. 6 And he promised, and sought opportunity to betray him unto them in the absence of the multitude. 7 Then came the day of unleavened bread, when the passover must be killed. 8 And he sent Peter and John, saying, Go and prepare us the passover, that we may eat. 9 And they said unto him, Where wilt thou that we prepare? 10 And he said unto them, Behold, when ye are entered into the city, there shall a man meet you, bearing a pitcher of water; follow him into the house where he entereth in. 11 And ye shall say unto the goodman of the house, The Master saith unto thee, Where is the guestchamber, where I shall eat the passover with my disciples? 12 And he shall shew you a large upper room furnished: there make ready. 13 And they went, and found as he had said unto them: and they made ready the passover. 14 And when the hour was come, he sat down, and the twelve apostles with him. 15 And he said unto them, With desire I have desired to eat this passover with you before I suffer: 16 For I say unto you, I will not any more eat thereof, until it be fulfilled in the kingdom of God. 17 And he took the cup, and gave thanks, and said, Take this, and divide it among yourselves: 18 For I say unto you, I will not drink of the fruit of the vine, until the kingdom of God shall come. 19 And he took bread, and gave thanks, and brake it, and gave unto them, saying, This is my body which is given for you: this do in remembrance of me. 20 Likewise also the cup after supper, saying, This cup is the new testament in my blood, which is shed for you. 21 But, behold, the hand of him that betrayeth me is with me on the table. 22 And truly the Son of man goeth, as it was determined: but woe unto that man by whom he is betrayed! 23 And they began to enquire among themselves, which of them it was that should do this thing. 24 And there was also a strife among them, which of them should be accounted the greatest. 25 And he said unto them, The kings of the Gentiles exercise lordship over them; and they that exercise authority upon them are called benefactors. 26 But ye shall not be so: but he that is greatest among you, let him be as the younger; and he that is chief, as he that doth serve. 27 For whether is greater, he that sitteth at meat, or he that serveth? is not he that sitteth at meat? but I am among you as he that serveth. 28 Ye are they which have continued with me in my temptations. 29 And I appoint unto you a kingdom, as my Father hath appointed unto me; 30 That ye may eat and drink at my table in my kingdom, and sit on thrones judging the twelve tribes of Israel. 31 And the Lord said, Simon, Simon, behold, Satan hath desired to have you, that he may sift you as wheat: 32 But I have prayed for thee, that thy faith fail not: and when thou art converted, strengthen thy brethren. 33 And he said unto him, Lord, I am ready to go with thee, both into prison, and to death. 34 And he said, I tell thee, Peter, the cock shall not crow this day, before that thou shalt thrice deny that thou knowest me. 35 And he said unto them, When I sent you without purse, and scrip, and shoes, lacked ye any thing? And they said, Nothing. 36 Then said he unto them, But now, he that hath a purse, let him take it, and likewise his scrip: and he that hath no sword, let him sell his garment, and buy one. 37 For I say unto you, that this that is written must yet be accomplished in me, And he was reckoned among the transgressors: for the things concerning me have an end. 38 And they said, Lord, behold, here are two swords. And he said unto them, It is enough. 39 And he came out, and went, as he was wont, to the mount of Olives; and his disciples also followed him. 40 And when he was at the place, he said unto them, Pray that ye enter not into temptation. 41 And he was withdrawn from them about a stone’s cast, and kneeled down, and prayed, 42 Saying, Father, if thou be willing, remove this cup from me: nevertheless not my will, but thine, be done. 43 And there appeared an angel unto him from heaven, strengthening him. 44 And being in an agony he prayed more earnestly: and his sweat was as it were great drops of blood falling down to the ground. 45 And when he rose up from prayer, and was come to his disciples, he found them sleeping for sorrow, 46 And said unto them, Why sleep ye? rise and pray, lest ye enter into temptation. 47 And while he yet spake, behold a multitude, and he that was called Judas, one of the twelve, went before them, and drew near unto Jesus to kiss him. 48 But Jesus said unto him, Judas, betrayest thou the Son of man with a kiss? 49 When they which were about him saw what would follow, they said unto him, Lord, shall we smite with the sword? 50 And one of them smote the servant of the high priest, and cut off his right ear. 51 And Jesus answered and said, Suffer ye thus far. And he touched his ear, and healed him. 52 Then Jesus said unto the chief priests, and captains of the temple, and the elders, which were come to him, Be ye come out, as against a thief, with swords and staves? 53 When I was daily with you in the temple, ye stretched forth no hands against me: but this is your hour, and the power of darkness. 54 Then took they him, and led him, and brought him into the high priest’s house. And Peter followed afar off. 55 And when they had kindled a fire in the midst of the hall, and were set down together, Peter sat down among them. 56 But a certain maid beheld him as he sat by the fire, and earnestly looked upon him, and said, This man was also with him. 57 And he denied him, saying, Woman, I know him not. 58 And after a little while another saw him, and said, Thou art also of them. And Peter said, Man, I am not. 59 And about the space of one hour after another confidently affirmed, saying, Of a truth this fellow also was with him: for he is a Galilaean. 60 And Peter said, Man, I know not what thou sayest. And immediately, while he yet spake, the cock crew. 61 And the Lord turned, and looked upon Peter. And Peter remembered the word of the Lord, how he had said unto him, Before the cock crow, thou shalt deny me thrice. 62 And Peter went out, and wept bitterly. 63 And the men that held Jesus mocked him, and smote him. 64 And when they had blindfolded him, they struck him on the face, and asked him, saying, Prophesy, who is it that smote thee? 65 And many other things blasphemously spake they against him. 66 And as soon as it was day, the elders of the people and the chief priests and the scribes came together, and led him into their council, saying, 67 Art thou the Christ? tell us. And he said unto them, If I tell you, ye will not believe: 68 And if I also ask you, ye will not answer me, nor let me go. 69 Hereafter shall the Son of man sit on the right hand of the power of God. 70 Then said they all, Art thou then the Son of God? And he said unto them, Ye say that I am. 71 And they said, What need we any further witness? for we ourselves have heard of his own mouth.

Betrayal Cuts deep. Betrayal can only come from someone You Trust. Someone you are close to:

Yes, Jesus knew Judas would Betray him.

But that does not take away the Sting of Judas’s Betrayal.

Judas was a man who Jesus asked to be one of his 12 Disciples. His Betrayal was a Huge deal. Jesus depended on him. He taught him. Traveled endlessly on foot and by boat with him for 3 ½ years. These journeys were rough. Filled with thunderstorms, extreme heat and cold. They had to deal with crowds of thousands of needy people. This Life. This Ministry was hard work. Jesus had to depend on all of his Disciples.

Living and working very close to a person that long. So close that they slept on the same few feet of ground together. Multiplies the Pain of the Betrayal. Do not forget. Jesus was a flesh and blood man. He got hungry, tired, angry, cold, hot… He had deep human emotions. Jesus cried when he heard Lazarus had died.

Judas’s Betrayal Deeply Hurt Jesus.

Betrayal, The Costs:

People that are Betrayed Get Shunned by Most People. People will Automatically think the Worst of them: “There must be a Reason he or She was Betrayed. They are Not Innocent…” They Constantly Question them: “What is wrong with him or her”. (Or, you might be thinking. You can relate to all the Betrayal.)

Betrayal is the Act of a Horrible Person. It has nothing to do with, there being something wrong, with You. It is a reflection on the Person who Betrayed you. Betrayal happens because people are Evil.

Betrayal makes you Question Yourself. Why me? Am I not Worth Caring about? You Lose Faith in people. You Expect Everyone you know to Stab you in the back. There is No peace anywhere. At home, at work at Church. Because you feel like it is Impossible to Trust in anyone anymore.

Please Do Not be a Judas. Do not Betray Anyone.

Betrayal happens when someone you Trust. Takes advantage of that Trust. And does something to break that, Trust. Stealing from you. Belittling you to other people. Doing things to Deliberately Hurt you. Lying about who they really are. Telling Secrets, You Trusted them with. A cheating spouse…

Judas’s Betrayal of Jesus was Foretold in the Old Testament:

Zechariah 11:10 And I took my staff, even Beauty, and cut it asunder, that I might break my covenant which I had made with all the people.

11 And it was broken in that day: and so the poor of the flock that waited upon me knew that it was the word of the Lord.

12 And I said unto them, If ye think good, give me my price; and if not, forbear. So they weighed for my price thirty pieces of silver.

13 And the Lord said unto me, Cast it unto the potter: a goodly price that I was prised at of them. And I took the thirty pieces of silver, and cast them to the potter in the house of the Lord.

300 Prophecies were fulfilled concerning Jesus Life on the Earth as a human being:

The Bible is 100% True we know this because of all the fulfilled Bible Prophecies. The Bible has not failed in correctly predicting the future.

Judas Rejected and Betrayed Jesus for money.

Matthew 26:14 Then one of the twelve, called Judas Iscariot, went unto the chief priests,

15 And said unto them, What will ye give me, and I will deliver him unto you? And they covenanted with him for thirty pieces of silver.

16 And from that time he sought opportunity to betray him.

“What will you give me…”

Judas Greed: “What will you give me…”

1st Timothy 6:10 For the love of money is the root of all evil: which while some coveted after, they have erred from the faith, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows.

The world is full of Judas’s who Reject Jesus for Money. For the Sinful things of this world.

Mark 4:19 And the cares of this world, and the deceitfulness of riches, and the lusts of other things entering in, choke the word, and it becometh unfruitful.

We are Saved by the Word of God. People refuse to Hear the Word of God. Because the Word of God goes against their life style.

1st Timothy 6:7 For we brought nothing into this world, and it is certain we can carry nothing out. 

8 And having food and raiment let us be therewith content. 

9 But they that will be rich fall into temptation and a snare, and into many foolish and hurtful lusts, which drown men in destruction and perdition. 

10 For the love of money is the root of all evil: which while some coveted after, they have erred from the faith, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows. 

11 But thou, O man of God, flee these things; and follow after righteousness, godliness, faith, love, patience, meekness. 

12 Fight the good fight of faith, lay hold on eternal life, whereunto thou art also called, and hast professed a good profession before many witnesses.

Life is short, very short Do Not Waste Your Life:

Most Christians Waste their Lives working hard to get a High Paying job.

So, they can have a Large home. Some have more than one home. They buy many expensive things. 2 cars, boats, motorcycles, snowmobiles, everything they can dream of. Expensive vacations etc…

Their Real God is being Wealthy, having a Large Bank account This is Idolatry Money is Their Idol Their God.

Matthew 6:19 Lay not up for yourselves treasures upon earth, where moth and rust doth corrupt, and where thieves break through and steal: 

20 But lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust doth corrupt, and where thieves do not break through nor steal:

Proverbs 15:27 He that is greedy of gain troubleth his own house; but he that hateth gifts shall live.

Proverbs 23:4 Labour not to be rich: cease from thine own wisdom.

1st John 2:15 Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him.

16 For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world.

17 And the world passeth away, and the lust thereof: but he that doeth the will of God abideth for ever.

Betrayal is Always Personal. Almost Everyone has or will be Personally Betrayed:

You are Probably Thinking Right Now of how You have Been Betrayed in Your Life. I was Betrayed by My Wife:

For months a man I thought was my Friend made a Fool out of me. We went to the same Church. He came to me and said I know you could use a Friend right now. Let’s meet when we can and talk about what you are dealing with. He was a Spy. He tried to find Dirt on me for my wife. We were going through a Divorce. There was no Dirt to find. He tried to get me to do a quick online Divorce which Would Not Protect my Parental Rights.

When he could do nothing to help my wife. It Quickly became Obvious he was working for her. After she came at me with the same conversations. I went to him, and he Admitted what he was Doing. He Betrayed me by Lying to me. By helping my wife Spread Lies about me around the Church and Our Community. This is a Typical Example of Betrayal that countless people Suffer Through.

The Answer for Betrayal is Not to Let them Win.

They Win if You Do Anything Stupid. Stupid Like Losing Your Temper and Doing Something Bad Out of Anger. Violence, Revenge is Never the Answer for Betrayal. 

Jesus is our Example to Follow. Jesus did Not Get Angry. He Did Not Lose His Temper at Judas for his Betrayal of him. 

Be Like Jesus. Stay Calm in the Midst of Betrayal, All of the Forces of EVIL that Attack You. 

Everyone suffers through Betrayal in their lives. “Christians” Betray other Christians:

Just because someone tells you they are a Christian Does Not mean they are a Christian:

One Woman told me she was born into a Christian Family. And grew up in the Church. So that made her a Christian.

I told her that did not make her a Christian.

I said: “Just going to Church does not make you a Christian.” “Is their a time in your life when you Believed on Jesus as your Savior? When you Asked Jesus to Save you?”

She lost her temper: “How Dare you Question my Salvation!!!” “I do not have to Defend myself.” “My Christian Life will get me into Heaven.”

I persisted: “You Asked Jesus to Save You? You Believe the Gospel, are trusting in Jesus only to Save you?”

She shouted: “I did not have to do anything!!!”

She Never Believed the Gospel to Save Her. She Did Not Believe in Jesus Only to Save Her. She Never Asked Jesus to Save her. Her faith is in her “Christian” Family, her Lifestyle, Not in Jesus.

Do not waste your life. Do not die without Asking Jesus to Save you.

1st Corinthians 15:1 Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand;

2 By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain.

3 For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures;

4 And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:

Mark 8:36 For what shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul? 

37 Or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul?

A Cashless Society? Do Not Fear A Cashless Society The Bible Does Not Prophesize It.

If you are Saved. If You are a Christian. You are Not supposed to Fear a Cashless Society. 666 The Mark of the Beast. The Great Tribulation.

Lying Satanic People are Spreading Fear All over the Internet in Magazines, in News Papers, and in Movies. About a Cashless society. About 666 The Mark of the Beast, A Cashless Society.

Matthew 10:25 If they have called the master of the house Beelzebub, how much more shall they call them of his household?

26 Fear them not therefore: for there is nothing covered, that shall not be revealed; and hid, that shall not be known.

27 What I tell you in darkness, that speak ye in light: and what ye hear in the ear, that preach ye upon the housetops.

28 And fear not them which kill the body, but are not able to kill the soul: but rather fear him which is able to destroy both soul and body in hell.

29 Are not two sparrows sold for a farthing? and one of them shall not fall on the ground without your Father.

30 But the very hairs of your head are all numbered.

31 Fear ye not therefore, ye are of more value than many sparrows.

Jesus said to FEAR NOT!!!!

Christians are not supposed to FEAR, The Book of Revelation Which Does Not Say There Will Be A Cashless Society.

Revelation 13:13 And he doeth great wonders, so that he maketh fire come down from heaven on the earth in the sight of men,

14 And deceiveth them that dwell on the earth by the means of those miracles which he had power to do in the sight of the beast; saying to them that dwell on the earth, that they should make an image to the beast, which had the wound by a sword, and did live.

15 And he had power to give life unto the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak, and cause that as many as would not worship the image of the beast should be killed.

16 And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads:

17 And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.

18 Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number is Six hundred threescore and six.

This passage does not call for the Elimination of Cash, A Cashless Society.

Also, The Mark of the Beast 666 is not a microchip. People have an irrational fear of microchips. We are told the government wants to microchip us. So, we can be tracked. All of our information will be on this chip. This is not the Mark of the Beast.

The Mark of the Beast is a Specific NUMBER, 666. A NUMBER. Not Trillions of different numbers used to track everyone on this Earth. This Number is the Number of a Man. It is Satan’s NUMBER. 

The Mark of the Beast 666 only happens when Satan is in Control.

When Satan Is in Charge of the entire Earth. Is Satan now in Charge? This only happens 3 ½ years into the Great Tribulation. Are we in the Great Tribulation now?

If you are Saved. A Christian. You will not be around here on the Earth for the Mark of the Beast.

1st Thessalonians 4:13 But I would not have you to be ignorant, brethren, concerning them which are asleep, that ye sorrow not, even as others which have no hope. 14 For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so them also which sleep in Jesus will God bring with him. 15 For this we say unto you by the word of the Lord, that we which are alive [and] remain unto the coming of the Lord shall not prevent them which are asleep. 16 For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first: 17 Then we which are alive [and] remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord. 18 Wherefore comfort one another with these words.

God Protects his people from Satan:

1st Corinthians 15:49 And as we have borne the image of the earthy, we shall also bear the image of the heavenly.

50 Now this I say, brethren, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God; neither doth corruption inherit incorruption.

51 Behold, I shew you a mystery; We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed,

52 In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed.

53 For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality.

54 So when this corruptible shall have put on incorruption, and this mortal shall have put on immortality, then shall be brought to pass the saying that is written, Death is swallowed up in victory.

55 O death, where is thy sting? O grave, where is thy victory?

The Entire Bible is Written to Show Mankind that Jesus Loves us.

Do not Fear a Cashless Society, 666 The Mark of the Beast. Do not Fear the Great Tribulation. That is if you are SAVED. If you have not asked Jesus to Save you. You should be AFRAID. Very AFRAID.

Jesus’ Innocent Blood Was Shed For You. Pilate’s Guilt.

Barabbas – Hell or Jesus – Heaven?  Which do you Choose?  This is the Ultimate Question. God is Asking Everyone to decide.

Matthew 27:17
“Therefore when they were gathered together, Pilate said unto them, Whom will ye that I release unto you? Barabbas, or Jesus which is called Christ?”

Accept the Lord Jesus Christ as your Saviour or reject him.

Matthew 27:
15 Now at that feast the governor was wont to release unto the people a prisoner, whom they would.
16 And they had then a notable prisoner, called Barabbas.
17 Therefore when they were gathered together, Pilate said unto them, Whom will ye that I release unto you? Barabbas, or Jesus which is called Christ?
18 For he knew that for envy they had delivered him.
19 When he was set down on the judgment seat, his wife sent unto him, saying, Have thou nothing to do with that just man: for I have suffered many things this day in a dream because of him.
20 But the chief priests and elders persuaded the multitude that they should ask Barabbas, and destroy Jesus.
21 The governor answered and said unto them, Whether of the twain will ye that I release unto you? They said, Barabbas.
22 Pilate saith unto them, What shall I do then with Jesus which is called Christ? They all say unto him, Let him be crucified.
23 And the governor said, Why, what evil hath he done? But they cried out the more, saying, Let him be crucified.
24 When Pilate saw that he could prevail nothing, but that rather a tumult was made, he took water, and washed his hands before the multitude, saying, I am innocent of the blood of this just person: see ye to it.
25 Then answered all the people, and said, His blood be on us, and on our children.
26 Then released he Barabbas unto them: and when he had scourged Jesus, he delivered him to be crucified.
27 Then the soldiers of the governor took Jesus into the common hall, and gathered unto him the whole band of soldiers.
28 And they stripped him, and put on him a scarlet robe.
29 And when they had platted a crown of thorns, they put it upon his head, and a reed in his right hand: and they bowed the knee before him, and mocked him, saying, Hail, King of the Jews!
30 And they spit upon him, and took the reed, and smote him on the head.
31 And after that they had mocked him, they took the robe off from him, and put his own raiment on him, and led him away to crucify him.
32 And as they came out, they found a man of Cyrene, Simon by name: him they compelled to bear his cross.
33 And when they were come unto a place called Golgotha, that is to say, a place of a skull,
34 They gave him vinegar to drink mingled with gall: and when he had tasted thereof, he would not drink.
35 And they crucified him, and parted his garments, casting lots: that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophet, They parted my garments among them, and upon my vesture did they cast lots.
36 And sitting down they watched him there;
37 And set up over his head his accusation written, THIS IS JESUS THE KING OF THE JEWS.
38 Then were there two thieves crucified with him, one on the right hand, and another on the left.
39 And they that passed by reviled him, wagging their heads,
40 And saying, Thou that destroyest the temple, and buildest it in three days, save thyself. If thou be the Son of God, come down from the cross.
41 Likewise also the chief priests mocking him, with the scribes and elders, said,
42 He saved others; himself he cannot save. If he be the King of Israel, let him now come down from the cross, and we will believe him.
43 He trusted in God; let him deliver him now, if he will have him: for he said, I am the Son of God.
44 The thieves also, which were crucified with him, cast the same in his teeth.
45 Now from the sixth hour there was darkness over all the land unto the ninth hour.
46 And about the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, saying, Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani? that is to say, My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?
47 Some of them that stood there, when they heard that, said, This man calleth for Elias.
48 And straightway one of them ran, and took a spunge, and filled it with vinegar, and put it on a reed, and gave him to drink.
49 The rest said, Let be, let us see whether Elias will come to save him.
50 Jesus, when he had cried again with a loud voice, yielded up the ghost.
51 And, behold, the veil of the temple was rent in twain from the top to the bottom; and the earth did quake, and the rocks rent;
52 And the graves were opened; and many bodies of the saints which slept arose,
53 And came out of the graves after his resurrection, and went into the holy city, and appeared unto many.
54 Now when the centurion, and they that were with him, watching Jesus, saw the earthquake, and those things that were done, they feared greatly, saying, Truly this was the Son of God.

You must ASK YOURSELF:

Heaven or Hell / The Lake of Fire???

Barabbas? Jesus?

Who will you choose? Jesus and Eternal Life in Heaven? Barabbas and Eternal Damnation in the Lake of Fire?

You have to choose. If you do not choose Jesus you are rejecting his free gift of Salvation. For example: A Sick person can choose the cure for their sickness or reject the Cure and die. Choices have to be made in this life. Doing nothing is a Choice that will Damn you to Eternal Flames:

John 3: 14 And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of man be lifted up:

15 That whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have eternal life.

16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.

17 For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved.

18 He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.

19 And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil.

20 For every one that doeth evil hateth the light, neither cometh to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved.

21 But he that doeth truth cometh to the light, that his deeds may be made manifest, that they are wrought in God.

The Bible is clear if you refuse to Believe on Jesus (Do nothing.) you have rejected him:

Verse 18 is crystal clear: “He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.”

So will you be like the fickled Crowd who followed Jesus? Who never Believed on Jesus?

These people wanted to be part of a group of people. (Like today people want to be accepted in society, part of the cool crowd, part of the latest popular trend.) This Crowd was almost all people who had not made a decision, a choice for Jesus. They followed him to see what would happen next. They wanted to see his miracles and his confrontations with the Pharisees and Sadducee’s. They were there for the excitement, for stories to tell people.

They were healed by Jesus, fed by him, taught by him. They immediately turned on Jesus when they saw him bound and bloody by the Roman soldiers.

They shouted: Crucify him! Crucify him! Crucify him! We want Barabbas!!! Crucify Jesus!!!

Pilate did not want to make a Choice. He left it to the mob.

Pilate had the authority to free Jesus. By not freeing Jesus he REJECTED JESUS! Pilate not the mob condemned Jesus to death to be Crucified.


“I am innocent of the Blood of this just person: see ye to it said Pilate.”

Pilate was delusional thinking he could be free of the shed Blood of Jesus by leaving the decision up to the mob who had no authority to have Jesus Crucified. Pilate’s hands are bloody. He tried to clean the Blood off his hands by washing them in water.

Right now in Hell Pilate is still rubbing his hands together trying to rid them of Jesus INNOCENT BLOOD.

Jesus was Falsely accused and found INNOCENT. Pilate did not want Jesus INNOCENT BLOOD on his hands.

Pilate can never wash Jesus Blood off his hands.

Pilate had the authority to release Jesus but he Feared the Mob. Instead of doing the right thing and releasing Jesus he had Jesus Crucified on his own authority.

Pilate is guilty, he has Jesus Innocent Blood forever on his hands.


No one is Neutral. Doing nothing. Making no decision for Jesus is rejecting Jesus.


John 3:
18 He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.
19 And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil.
20 For every one that doeth evil hateth the light, neither cometh to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved.
21 But he that doeth truth cometh to the light, that his deeds may be made manifest, that they are wrought in God.

If you have not Believed on Jesus, accepted him as your Saviour, asked Jesus to Save you than you are Lost.

Barabbas is a picture of every person ever born. Barabbas was Guilty. Innocent Jesus took his place. He died for Barabbas Crimes his Sins.

Mark 15:7
“And there was one named Barabbas, which lay bound with them that had made insurrection with him, who had committed murder in the insurrection.”

Barabbas was GULITY of trying to overthrow the Roman Government. Barabbas was GUILTY of MURDER. Jesus was INNOCENT.

Jesus died in Barabbas place.
Jesus died in your place, he died in my place.
Jesus died for all the Sins of the World.
Do not Die without Jesus.
Ask Jesus to Save you right now.

Romans 10:
8 But what saith it? The word is nigh thee, even in thy mouth, and in thy heart: that is, the word of faith, which we preach;
9 That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.
10 For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.
11 For the scripture saith, Whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed.
12 For there is no difference between the Jew and the Greek: for the same Lord over all is rich unto all that call upon him.
13 For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.

The Prodigal Son

The Prodigal Son is explained many different ways.

The Prodigal Son is a Favorite Sunday School lesson. It is about Love. It is showing a Father’s unconditional Love for his Son. There are three principal characters in this story. The Father The Prodigal Son and the Brother. The Father is a Good Father who Loves both of his Son’s. The Prodigal Son’s Brother is Jealous and angry at the reception his Brother received when he returned home.

There is a lot here. As Christians we should see that we are the Prodigal Son. What Christian has not taken all that God has given to them and wasted it. The air we breath in our lungs is wasted by us. We waste it. Because we waste so much of our time on meaningless things. We get so caught up in the Affairs of the World. That we Neglect our Christian Service. Many of us Fall Deep into Sin like the Prodigal Son did. Like him we are ashamed of ourselves. Also like him we Eventually (Truthfully not all of us Return Home to God.) come back Home to God. Who is Always Happy to Welcome us back with Great Joy and Celebration.

The Prodigal Son Returns Home

Luke 15:22 But the father said to his servants, Bring forth the best robe, and put it on him; and put a ring on his hand, and shoes on his feet:

23 And bring hither the fatted calf, and kill it; and let us eat, and be merry:

24 For this my son was dead, and is alive again; he was lost, and is found. And they began to be merry.
There are man False Teachers Preaching today.

Recently a Pastor posted a message about the Prodigal Son. He said the Prodigal Son should have been Rejected and Turned Away.

Yes, He said it was Wrong to Accept any family member back. Who needed Money. It was just going to Hurt them rather than Help them.

He Preached Tough Love. He believes people looking for Help. Will Only Take Advantage of you. To help them. Will keep them from being able to stand on their own two feet.

I do not like it when Pastor’s reject what the Bible says. They say the Bible is wrong. (Most will not openly say the Bible is Wrong. Although many do.) They Twist the Scriptures. “This is what the Real Meaning Is.” “The Bible is Hard to Understand. Follow my teaching instead. I will break down the Bible for you to Understand.” Run from everyone who says things like this.

The Bible Will Not be Understood by Lost people. Who are Not Looking for The Truth. Every person who is Seeking The Truth Will Understand the Bible. In general. When a person reads the Bible with an open mind. They Will Understand what it is saying. Parts of the Bible Require Deep Study to Completely Understand.

“The Real Meaning?” God Wrote the Bible Without Hidden Meanings.

No one will completely understand everything in the Bible. Because God just has not allowed us to Understand everything. Our human minds just Cannot Comprehend some things the Bible says.

I would Never Reject a Family member. A Friend who came to me for Help.

Never Throw a person in Need Out on the street to Starve, to Steal so they can eat.

The Prodigal Son is about Mercy, Love, Compassion, and Restoration.

The Prodigal Son is also about Jealousy. The other Son who stayed home. (Who by the way was given his inheritance also.) Was Mad at his father for Welcoming his brother back.

The Bible shows us how Evil our human nature can be. Some people have No Compassion.

To have a brother Back who had Humbled himself in coming back. Should be a Joyous occasion. Not a time to be Jealous and Angry.

God’s Mercy, and Forgiveness is the point of the Prodigal Son.

We Fail God everyday. Too many Christians just Quit on God. And feel like the Prodigal at his Lowest point. Many just Wallow in the Mud. And Never come Home to Jesus’ Love and Mercy. To His open arms.

When we Fall into Sin. The answer is Not to Give Up. And Stay Living in Sin. The answer is to Flee from our Sin, to Run to Jesus.

Satan wants us to feel like we Cannot do Anything for Jesus. Because of how Sinful we have been and still are. The message of the Bible is:

“OK, you are Dirty covered in your Sins. Get Up Right Now. Stop your Ungodly Behavior. And Immediately start Serving Jesus.”

God Loves Us. This is the Simple Message of the Prodigal Son.

1st John 4:7 Beloved, let us love one another: for love is of God; and every one that loveth is born of God, and knoweth God.

10 Herein is love, not that we loved God, but that he loved us, and sent his Son to be the propitiation for our sins.

9 That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.

10 For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.

11 For the scripture saith, Whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed.

12 For there is no difference between the Jew and the Greek: for the same Lord over all is rich unto all that call upon him.

13 For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.

Heaven

Heaven is where God’s Throne is. It is a city with streets of gold. It is full of Mansions.

Hollywood Mocks Heaven. Hollywood’s version of Heaven is people sitting on clouds strumming Harps. Heaven is real so is Hell. Hell is not a party where people will be reunited with their friends. Hollywood pictures Hell as a great place where people have endless fun.

Jesus Describes Heaven

John 14:2 “In my Father’s house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you.”

Heaven is so Amazing that our human minds cannot even begin to comprehend it.

1st Corinthians 2:9  “But as it is written, Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love him.”

The context of 1st Corinthians 2:9. Is Paul telling a crowd. That what he says is from God. God’s Wisdom. Not the False Wisdom of the world. God wants us to look forward to going to Heaven.

1st Corinthians 2:6 Howbeit we speak wisdom among them that are perfect: yet not the wisdom of this world, nor of the princes of this world, that come to nought:

7 But we speak the wisdom of God in a mystery, even the hidden wisdom, which God ordained before the world unto our glory:

8 Which none of the princes of this world knew: for had they known it, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory.

9 But as it is written, Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love him.

10 But God hath revealed them unto us by his Spirit: for the Spirit searcheth all things, yea, the deep things of God.

11 For what man knoweth the things of a man, save the spirit of man which is in him? even so the things of God knoweth no man, but the Spirit of God.

12 Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the spirit which is of God; that we might know the things that are freely given to us of God.

13 Which things also we speak, not in the words which man’s wisdom teacheth, but which the Holy Ghost teacheth; comparing spiritual things with spiritual.

14 But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned.

15 But he that is spiritual judgeth all things, yet he himself is judged of no man.

16 For who hath known the mind of the Lord, that he may instruct him? But we have the mind of Christ.

The Saints in the Old Testament looked forward to Heaven.

The Bible is clear that Heaven is not a place with people sitting on clouds strumming harps. Also Heaven is not in the Clouds. Heaven is way beyond our clouds. The depiction of Heaven. In paintings, in pictures, in movies and on TV. Are Lost’s man’s depictions and are not Biblical.

Heaven is the home of countless Angels. And other Spiritual Beings. It is an active working city. With God on the Throne.

Faith in Jesus Blood Atonement Only Is The ONLY WAY TO HEAVEN For Everyone.

Hebrews 12:18 For ye are not come unto the mount that might be touched, and that burned with fire, nor unto blackness, and darkness, and tempest,

19 And the sound of a trumpet, and the voice of words; which voice they that heard intreated that the word should not be spoken to them any more:

20 (For they could not endure that which was commanded, And if so much as a beast touch the mountain, it shall be stoned, or thrust through with a dart:

21 And so terrible was the sight, that Moses said, I exceedingly fear and quake:)

22 But ye are come unto mount Sion, and unto the city of the living God, the heavenly Jerusalem, and to an innumerable company of angels,

23 To the general assembly and church of the firstborn, which are written in heaven, and to God the Judge of all, and to the spirits of just men made perfect,

24 And to Jesus the mediator of the new covenant, and to the blood of sprinkling, that speaketh better things than that of Abel.

25 See that ye refuse not him that speaketh. For if they escaped not who refused him that spake on earth, much more shall not we escape, if we turn away from him that speaketh from heaven:
26 Whose voice then shook the earth: but now he hath promised, saying, Yet once more I shake not the earth only, but also heaven.

27 And this word, Yet once more, signifieth the removing of those things that are shaken, as of things that are made, that those things which cannot be shaken may remain.

28 Wherefore we receiving a kingdom which cannot be moved, let us have grace, whereby we may serve God acceptably with reverence and godly fear:

29 For our God is a consuming fire.

Heaven for every Christian. Starts with Judgment and Tears. Yes, Tears. There will be Tears in Heaven.

Revelation 21:4 “And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away.”

People do not understand this verse. It sounds Happy. Because God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes. This verse is one of the saddest verses in the entire Bible Actually.

God has not yet wiped away people’s tears. “Shall.” Shall is a future event. People in Heaven are crying.

Let this sink in. You and I. We will be crying in Heaven. For years. Heaven is outside of time. Just think how long it will take. For Jesus to Judge the entire World. Our Lost Family Members, and Friends. The amount of time is unfathomable.

2nd Peter 3:8 “But, beloved, be not ignorant of this one thing, that one day is with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day.”

Things that will happen to every person in Heaven

Some people will be Naked. Jesus will Judge us all. People get mad. And call it perverse. That some people will get to Heaven Naked. This does not mean. That they will remain Naked in Heaven. And I do not think the Bible suggests this. God is showing their Nakedness because they did not serve him. White Robes are the Righteousness of the Saints. Nakedness is their lack of Righteousness.

Revelation 19:8 “And to her was granted that she should be arrayed in fine linen, clean and white: for the fine linen is the righteousness of saints.”

When you get to Heaven you will be Naked or Clothed because of your Righteousness. In a White Robe. You have to have lived a Righteous Christian Life to get a White Robe. The Bible makes this clear.

The Bible teaches us that Nakedness is Shameful. The Naked people in Heaven. Are Shameful. Because they did not Live for Jesus. Every Lost person will be Naked.

The following is a depiction of what will happen. When the Bride of Christ. The Church gets to Heaven:

Revelation 19:1 And after these things I heard a great voice of much people in heaven, saying, Alleluia; Salvation, and glory, and honour, and power, unto the Lord our God:

2 For true and righteous are his judgments: for he hath judged the great whore, which did corrupt the earth with her fornication, and hath avenged the blood of his servants at her hand.

3 And again they said, Alleluia. And her smoke rose up for ever and ever.

4 And the four and twenty elders and the four beasts fell down and worshipped God that sat on the throne, saying, Amen; Alleluia.

5 And a voice came out of the throne, saying, Praise our God, all ye his servants, and ye that fear him, both small and great.

6 And I heard as it were the voice of a great multitude, and as the voice of many waters, and as the voice of mighty thunderings, saying, Alleluia: for the Lord God omnipotent reigneth.

7 Let us be glad and rejoice, and give honour to him: for the marriage of the Lamb is come, and his wife hath made herself ready.

8 And to her was granted that she should be arrayed in fine linen, clean and white: for the fine linen is the righteousness of saints.

9 And he saith unto me, Write, Blessed are they which are called unto the marriage supper of the Lamb. And he saith unto me, These are the true sayings of God.

10 And I fell at his feet to worship him. And he said unto me, See thou do it not: I am thy fellowservant, and of thy brethren that have the testimony of Jesus: worship God: for the testimony of Jesus is the spirit of prophecy.

11 And I saw heaven opened, and behold a white horse; and he that sat upon him was called Faithful and True, and in righteousness he doth judge and make war.

12 His eyes were as a flame of fire, and on his head were many crowns; and he had a name written, that no man knew, but he himself.

13 And he was clothed with a vesture dipped in blood: and his name is called The Word of God.

14 And the armies which were in heaven followed him upon white horses, clothed in fine linen, white and clean.

15 And out of his mouth goeth a sharp sword, that with it he should smite the nations: and he shall rule them with a rod of iron: and he treadeth the winepress of the fierceness and wrath of Almighty God.

16 And he hath on his vesture and on his thigh a name written, King Of Kings, And Lord Of Lords.

Once a Christian dies they are immediately in Heaven with the Lord.

2nd Corinthians 5:8 We are confident, I say, and willing rather to be absent from the body, and to be present with the Lord.

9 Wherefore we labour, that, whether present or absent, we may be accepted of him.

10 For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ; that every one may receive the things done in his body, according to that he hath done, whether it be good or bad.

11 Knowing therefore the terror of the Lord, we persuade men; but we are made manifest unto God; and I trust also are made manifest in your consciences.

10 “ …that every one may receive the things done in his body, according to that he hath done, whether it be good or bad.”

11 “Knowing therefore the Terror of the Lord…”

These Words Should Terrify everyone. Jesus will show us every Bad thing we have Done AS a Christian.

TERROR, TERROR, TERROR!!!!

Hebrews 10:3 “It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God.”

God wants every person alive to understand. That when their Life on Earth is over. Jesus will Judge them. In Vivid Color. Jesus will Judge all of our Works for Jesus, our Christian Service. The Good and the Bad.

Hebrews 9:27 “And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment:”

We will cry. Because of all the time we wasted. On useless worthless pleasures. Hours watching the TV daily. Living in Sin. The missed opportunities we had to serve Jesus. To witness to people, to Share the Gospel.

We will Cry. When we see Friends and Family members Judged by Jesus. And cast into the Lake of Fire.

Revelation 20:11 And I saw a great white throne, and him that sat on it, from whose face the earth and the heaven fled away; and there was found no place for them.

12 And I saw the dead, small and great, stand before God; and the books were opened: and another book was opened, which is the book of life: and the dead were judged out of those things which were written in the books, according to their works.

13 And the sea gave up the dead which were in it; and death and hell delivered up the dead which were in them: and they were judged every man according to their works.

14 And death and hell were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death.

15 And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire.

Revelation 21:4 “And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away.”

“…the former things are passed away.” Do you understand what this really means? Everyone you knew in your life. Who went to Hell. You will not remember them.

Your memory of your Father, Mother, Brothers, Sisters, Grandparents, Aunts, and Uncles. All Family, All Friends. You knew who went to Hell / The Lake of Fire. You will not remember anything about them.

Isaiah 65:17 “For, behold, I create new heavens and a new earth: and the former shall not be remembered, nor come into mind.”

When Jesus creates the New Heavens and the New Earth we will not remember our Past. The Past will not even come into our minds.

Heaven is not about us. It is not about our past. Heaven is about Jesus. In Heaven we will have a new glorified body. An entirely new life.

Jesus is the Focus of Heaven Not us. There will be no great reunion. Where we will be hugging family members. People we lived our lives with. Lost people for hundreds of years. Have painted pictures of Heaven. And have written books about Heaven. That are Not Biblical, Not true. There are no Husbands and Wives with their Children in Heaven. The Families we had on Earth. Will not exist like that in Heaven. In Heaven we will be one big family. The Bride of Christ.  

Jesus will Judge us As soon as we get to Heaven. We will not be hugging people we knew on Earth. Having this grand family celebration. We will have glorified bodies like Jesus’s resurrected body.

We will have Joy in Heaven. Joy that the Bible does not fully explain. We will be full of Joy just being in the amazingly beautiful city of Heaven. Seeing Angels and other Spiritual Beings.  Meeting Jesus will give us the greatest possible Joy.  Our future in Heaven will be working as leaders in Jesus’s Kingdom.  Heaven is not a Lazy city. It is a very active busy city. The Bible says we will judge Angels:

1st Corinthians 6:3 “Know ye not that we shall judge angels? how much more things that pertain to this life?”

Please do not miss out on Eternal Life in Heaven.

2nd Corinthians 6:2 “(For he saith, I have heard thee in a time accepted, and in the day of salvation have I succoured thee: behold, now is the accepted time; behold, now is the day of salvation.)”

Bible Salvation.

1st Corinthians 15:1 Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand;

2 By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain.

3 For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures;

4 And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:

2nd Chronicles 7:14 Explained

The True Meaning of 2nd Chronicles 7:14.

2nd Chronicles 7:14 “If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.”

“If my people,” The only people God claims as his in the Bible are the Jews. The Nation of Israel. No other Nation. No other Religion. “Christians” Falsely claim this verse for themselves. This verse is not even a Salvation Verse.

The Context of 2nd Chronicles 7:14 is a Covenant of God with the Nation of Israel. This passage is Not a Salvation Passage.

1st Lie. My People are Christians.

2nd Lie. 2nd Chronicles 7:14 can be applied to the United States of America and other Nations.

3rd Lie. 2nd Chronicles 7:14 teaches to Repent of Sin, To Turn From Sin, To Forsake Sin to be Saved. This False Teaching is sending countless people to Hell.

The Context of 2nd Chronicles 7:14 is a Covenant of God with the Nation of Israel. This passage is not a Salvation Passage.

This Passage Does Not Say to Repent of Sin. To Forsake Sin. Or To Turn from Sin to be Saved. It Does Not promise Salvation, Eternal Life. It is Not a Salvation passage.

The Bible clearly explains Salvation.

Salvation is 100% the work of the Lord Jesus Christ:

Believe the Gospel Only for Salvation. Believe on Jesus.

1st Corinthians 15:1 Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand;

2 By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain.

3 For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures;

4 And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:

How to read the Bible with correct understanding:

When considering any scripture verse. The reader must put it into context. Who is the writer speaking to? What are the requirements? If any?

The context of 2nd Chronicles 7:14 starts in 2nd Chronicles Chapter 6.

Solomon’s “end of praying” was the prayer in 2nd Chronicles Chapter 6 for the dedication of the Temple. Notice the context. God is speaking to Israel and no one else.

2nd Chronicles 6:1 Then said Solomon, The Lord hath said that he would dwell in the thick darkness.

2 But I have built an house of habitation for thee, and a place for thy dwelling for ever.

3 And the king turned his face, and blessed the whole congregation of Israel: and all the congregation of Israel stood.

4 And he said, Blessed be the Lord God of Israel, who hath with his hands fulfilled that which he spake with his mouth to my father David, saying,

5 Since the day that I brought forth my people out of the land of Egypt I chose no city among all the tribes of Israel to build an house in, that my name might be there; neither chose I any man to be a ruler over my people Israel:

6 But I have chosen Jerusalem, that my name might be there; and have chosen David to be over my people Israel.

7 Now it was in the heart of David my father to build an house for the name of the Lord God of Israel.

8 But the Lord said to David my father, Forasmuch as it was in thine heart to build an house for my name, thou didst well in that it was in thine heart:

9 Notwithstanding thou shalt not build the house; but thy son which shall come forth out of thy loins, he shall build the house for my name.

10 The Lord therefore hath performed his word that he hath spoken: for I am risen up in the room of David my father, and am set on the throne of Israel, as the Lord promised, and have built the house for the name of the Lord God of Israel.

11 And in it have I put the ark, wherein is the covenant of the Lord, that he made with the children of Israel.

God is Speaking to the Nation of Israel in all of these verses.

“…blessed the whole congregation of Israel.” vs. 3 

“…have chosen David to be over my people Israel.” vs. 6 

“And said, O LORD God of Israel,…” vs. 14 

“…O LORD God of Israel,” vs. 16

“And if thy people Israel be put to the worse before the enemy, because they have sinned against thee; and shall return and confess thy name, and pray…” vs. 24

“…forgive the sin of thy people Israel, and bring them again unto the land which thou gavest to them and to their fathers.” vs. 25

“…they have sinned against thee; yet if they pray toward this place, and confess thy name, and turn from their sin…” vs. 26 

“…forgive the sin of thy servants, and of thy people Israel…” vs. 27 

Yet if they…turn and pray unto thee in the land of their captivity, saying, We have sinned…” vs. 37 

“If they return to thee with all their heart and with all their soul in the land of their captivity…” vs. 38 

“…forgive thy people which have sinned against thee.” vs. 39

It is Imperative that we recognize Solomon’s prayer is for the Nation of Israel ONLY, No Other Nation.

2nd Chronicles 6:14 “And said, O LORD God of Israel, there is no God like thee in the heaven, nor in the earth; which keepest covenant, and shewest mercy unto thy servants, that walk before thee with all their hearts”

God, “which keepest covenant,” refers to the Mosaic Covenant. For example, when God promises a New Covenant in Jeremiah 31:31-34, we are told that Israel was unfaithful in obeying the (Mosaic Covenant Jeremiah 31:32) but God was faithful in keeping His part of the covenant.

Jeremiah 31:31 Behold, the days come, saith the Lord, that I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel, and with the house of Judah:

32 Not according to the covenant that I made with their fathers in the day that I took them by the hand to bring them out of the land of Egypt; which my covenant they brake, although I was an husband unto them, saith the Lord:

33 But this shall be the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel; After those days, saith the Lord, I will put my law in their inward parts, and write it in their hearts; and will be their God, and they shall be my people.

34 And they shall teach no more every man his neighbour, and every man his brother, saying, Know the Lord: for they shall all know me, from the least of them unto the greatest of them, saith the Lord; for I will forgive their iniquity, and I will remember their sin no more.

Deuteronomy Chapter 6 details commands God told Israel to Obey.

Deuteronomy 6:1 Now these are the commandments, the statutes, and the judgments, which the Lord your God commanded to teach you, that ye might do them in the land whither ye go to possess it: 2 That thou mightest fear the Lord thy God, to keep all his statutes and his commandments, which I command thee, thou, and thy son, and thy son’s son, all the days of thy life; and that thy days may be prolonged.

The surrounding context of Deuteronomy 6:1-25. Is the promise of blessing and cursing. Which is dependent on the obedience or disobedience of Israel. See Deuteronomy 28:1-14 for Blessings. And 28:15-68 and for Cursings.

There is the Promise of Blessing for Israel. Not for the Salvation of their Souls. If they Followed the Commands of the Mosaic Covenant. This didn’t Require Perfection. But that a Majority of the Nation would be Sincere Followers of Jehovah God.

The Davidic Covenant which is the “Seed” Promise. Of the Abrahamic Covenant.

Found in: Genesis 12:22 “And I will make of thee a great nation, and I will bless thee, and make thy name great; and thou shalt be a blessing:”

2nd Chronicles 6:16 “Now therefore, O LORD God of Israel, keep with thy servant David my father that which thou hast promised him, saying, There shall not fail thee a man in my sight to sit upon the throne of Israel; yet so that thy children take heed to their way to walk in my law, as thou hast walked before me.”In Psalm 89, Solomon appeals to God for His mercies based on the unconditional, eternal promise of the Davidic Covenant:

Psalm 89:26 He shall cry unto me, Thou art my father, my God, and the rock of my salvation.

27 Also I will make him my firstborn, higher than the kings of the earth.

28 My mercy will I keep for him for evermore, and my covenant shall stand fast with him.

29 His seed also will I make to endure for ever, and his throne as the days of heaven.

30 If his children forsake my law, and walk not in my judgments;

31 If they break my statutes, and keep not my commandments;

32 Then will I visit their transgression with the rod, and their iniquity with stripes.

33 Nevertheless my lovingkindness will I not utterly take from him, nor suffer my faithfulness to fail.

34 My covenant will I not break, nor alter the thing that is gone out of my lips.

35 Once have I sworn by my holiness that I will not lie unto David.

36 His seed shall endure for ever, and his throne as the sun before me.

37 It shall be established for ever as the moon, and as a faithful witness in heaven. Selah.

Notice that God’s Covenant with David (vs. 35) is Eternal. (vs. 28.) Not Dependent on Israel being obedient to God. (vs. 30 – 34) And that the Throne of David will Last Forever. (vs. 36) Based on God’s Faithfulness. His Word. And His Holiness. (vs. 33-35). The Unconditional Nature of the Davidic Covenant. Is consistent with the Unconditional Nature of the Abrahamic Covenant. 

The two covenants are important for understanding 2nd Chronicles 7:14. The Mosaic Covenant was Conditional and the Davidic Covenant is Unconditional. Neither Covenant was to Save people from going to Hell. Neither was to anyone other than the Nation of Israel. The Jewish people. Both Covenants are Everlasting, they will never end.

2nd Chronicles 7:14 is for Israel. Not for any Other Nation.

“Christians” in the USA. Twist the meaning of this verse. False Teachers use 2nd Chronicles 7:14 to teach the False Gospel Repent of Sins to Be Saved. To Turn From Sin to Be Saved. And To Forsake Sin to be Saved. To Teach God has Forever Forsaken Israel.

Please Beware of False Teacher’s. Who claim God has Forever Forsaken the Jewish people. The Nation of Israel. They Falsely teach all of the Covenant’s God had with Israel now belong to Christians.

No. People in the United States of America.

God will Not Bless you as a Nation. For Turning from your Wicked Ways. But there is a promise from God of a Blessing for the USA as a Nation. In Genesis 12:3. Actually this promise applies to every Nation. God has Greatly Blessed the USA because of this.

Genesis 12:1 Now the Lord had said unto Abram, Get thee out of thy country, and from thy kindred, and from thy father’s house, unto a land that I will shew thee:

2 And I will make of thee a great nation, and I will bless thee, and make thy name great; and thou shalt be a blessing:

3 And I will bless them that bless thee, and curse him that curseth thee: and in thee shall all families of the earth be blessed.

Acts 2:38 Explained.

Acts 2:38 Does Not teach you have to Repent of your Sins to be Saved. It does Not teach that Water Baptism is Required for Salvation.

Why is there a problem with people correctly understanding Acts 2:38? It is very simple and straight forward verse.

Acts 2:38 “Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost.”

When you read Acts 2:38. Understand the Bible Definition of Repent. Is to Change your mind. Also there is No Water in Acts 2:38’s Baptism. This Baptism is the Baptism of the Holy Ghost. NO WATER.

“Repent,” (Change your mind from unbelief in Jesus to belief in Jesus.) See there is a comma after Repent. First comes Repentance. Than after the person Repents. (Believes on Jesus.) They are Baptized with the Holy Ghost. Again Acts 2:38 is not talking about Water Baptism.

Water Baptism is Not required for Salvation. A person who is Saved. Gets Baptized to tell the World that they have been Saved.

Again, Acts 2:38’s Baptism is not a WATER BAPTISM. IT IS THE BAPTISM OF THE HOLY GHOST.  This is very simple and easy to understand. After you realize there is more than one type of Baptism in the Bible. One Baptism is the Baptism of the Holy Ghost. Another is a Water Baptism. That happens after you are Saved.

It is a dangerous thing to base your Salvation on one verse in the Bible. Especially when you read things into the verse that is not there. And you have the Wrong definition for a word in the verse.

Words that you do not understand the definition of. Look in the Bible at how the word is used. That will tell you the meaning of the word.

Most “Bible Believers” instead of letting the Bible define the meaning of a word. They invent the word’s meaning. So they can create their own False Doctrines. The word Repent for example does not mean: to Turn from Sin, To Repent of Sin, To Forsake Sin. There is no place in the Bible that the Word Repent means any of these things. Yet the vast Majority of Baptist Churches teach these Lies. Actually almost all Churches teach these Lies.

God Repented in the Bible more than anyone else. This should tell you immediately that Repent has nothing to do with Sin. Because God does not Sin. Does God Turn from his Sin? No God Does not Sin. Every time God Repents. He changes his mind. Repent in the Bible means to Change your mind.

There is no place in the Bible. Where Water Baptism is a condition of Salvation.

Remember the Salvation of the Ethiopian Eunuch.

Acts 8:27 And he arose and went: and, behold, a man of Ethiopia, an eunuch of great authority under Candace queen of the Ethiopians, who had the charge of all her treasure, and had come to Jerusalem for to worship,
28 Was returning, and sitting in his chariot read Esaias the prophet.
29 Then the Spirit said unto Philip, Go near, and join thyself to this chariot.
30 And Philip ran thither to [him], and heard him read the prophet Esaias, and said, Understandest thou what thou readest?
31 And he said, How can I, except some man should guide me? And he desired Philip that he would come up and sit with him.

32 The place of the scripture which he read was this, He was led as a sheep to the slaughter; and like a lamb dumb before his shearer, so opened he not his mouth:

33 In his humiliation his judgment was taken away: and who shall declare his generation? for his life is taken from the earth.
34 And the eunuch answered Philip, and said, I pray thee, of whom speaketh the prophet this? of himself, or of some other man?
35 Then Philip opened his mouth, and began at the same scripture, and preached unto him Jesus.
36 And as they went on [their] way, they came unto a certain water: and the eunuch said, See, [here is] water; what doth hinder me to be baptized?
37 And Philip said, If thou believest with all thine heart, thou mayest. And he answered and said, I believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God.
38 And he commanded the chariot to stand still: and they went down both into the water, both Philip and the eunuch; and he baptized him.
39 And when they were come up out of the water, the Spirit of the Lord caught away Philip, that the eunuch saw him no more: and he went on his way rejoicing.

The Key verses are:

36 And as they went on [their] way, they came unto a certain water: and the eunuch said, See, [here is] water; what doth hinder me to be baptized?
37 And Philip said, If thou believest with all thine heart, thou mayest. And he answered and said, I believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God.

Question: “What doth hinder me to be baptized?” The Answer: “If thou believest with all thine heart, thou mayest.”

A person is Saved as soon as they have Believed on Jesus with their Heart. Baptism is not part of Salvation. Once a person is Saved than they get Baptized.

Baptism is a Symbol of the Death Burial and Resurrection of Jesus.

When you get Baptized you are Saying publicly that I am Saved I have believed on Jesus Death, Burial and Resurrection to Save me.

Let’s look at this more in-depth.

It is Irrefutable that Acts 2:38’s Baptism is the Baptism of the Holy Ghost. Not a Water Baptism.  Water Baptism is Not Required for Salvation. The Bible is very clear that we are Saved by Believing the Gospel Only.

1st Thessalonians 4:13 But I would not have you to be ignorant, brethren, concerning them which are asleep, that ye sorrow not, even as others which have no hope.

14 For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so them also which sleep in Jesus will God bring with him.

15 For this we say unto you by the word of the Lord, that we which are alive and remain unto the coming of the Lord shall not prevent them which are asleep.

16 For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first:

17 Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord.

18 Wherefore comfort one another with these words.

The Bible has a built-in dictionary. By comparing Scripture-with-Scripture, we can solve the puzzle. Rightly dividing (Dissecting) the Word of truth.

2nd Timothy 2:15, “Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.”

John the Baptist said his baptism, was just water. He said when Jesus comes He would baptize them with the Holy Ghost which is not a water baptism. It is a Spiritual Baptism that Saves and Seals a person.

John 1:22 Then said they unto him, Who art thou? that we may give an answer to them that sent us. What sayest thou of thyself?

23 He said, I am the voice of one crying in the wilderness, Make straight the way of the Lord, as said the prophet Esaias.

24 And they which were sent were of the Pharisees.

25 And they asked him, and said unto him, Why baptizest thou then, if thou be not that Christ, nor Elias, neither that prophet?

26 John answered them, saying, I baptize with water: but there standeth one among you, whom ye know not;

27 He it is, who coming after me is preferred before me, whose shoe’s latchet I am not worthy to unloose.

28 These things were done in Bethabara beyond Jordan, where John was baptizing.

29 The next day John seeth Jesus coming unto him, and saith, Behold the Lamb of God, which taketh away the sin of the world.

30 This is he of whom I said, After me cometh a man which is preferred before me: for he was before me.

31 And I knew him not: but that he should be made manifest to Israel, therefore am I come baptizing with water.

32 And John bare record, saying, I saw the Spirit descending from heaven like a dove, and it abode upon him.

33 And I knew him not: but he that sent me to baptize with water, the same said unto me, Upon whom thou shalt see the Spirit descending, and remaining on him, the same is he which baptizeth with the Holy Ghost.

34 And I saw, and bare record that this is the Son of God.

John 1:26 and 33 teach that John the Baptist’s Baptism was just Water. That Jesus Baptism is not a water Baptism. It is a Spiritual Baptism. The Baptism of the Holy Ghost. That Saves a Person’s Soul.

John 26 John answered them, saying, I baptize with water: but there standeth one among you, whom ye know not; LOOK JOHN’S BAPTISM WAS WATER.

John 1:33 Jesus Baptizeth with the Holy Ghost which Saves a person. When someone has Believed on Jesus they are immediately Saved and Baptized with the Holy Ghost by Jesus. This completely explains Acts 2:38 and Water Baptism.

Acts 2:38 Literally means to be born-again (by the Holy Spirit) in the name of Jesus Christ. This is what it means to be baptized with the Holy Ghost. Most people make the error of assuming that “be baptized” in Acts 2:38 must means water baptism, because that is the modern popular understanding.

My friend, your Pastor can Baptize you with water. But that won’t Save you.

You must be Baptized with the Holy Ghost. Which only Jesus Christ can do. When you Believe on Him as your Savior.  Adding water Baptism, Partial Faith in Jesus Christ, to Salvation is a False Religion. It is not the Gift of God. We are saved by completely trusting in Jesus Christ only to Save us.

Throughout the New Testament. We read that we are Saved by Believing on Jesus Christ Only.

John 6:26 Jesus answered them and said, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Ye seek me, not because ye saw the miracles, but because ye did eat of the loaves, and were filled.

27 Labour not for the meat which perisheth, but for that meat which endureth unto everlasting life, which the Son of man shall give unto you: for him hath God the Father sealed.

28 Then said they unto him, What shall we do, that we might work the works of God?

29 Jesus answered and said unto them, This is the work of God, that ye believe on him whom he hath sent.

30 They said therefore unto him, What sign shewest thou then, that we may see, and believe thee? what dost thou work?

32 Then Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Moses gave you not that bread from heaven; but my Father giveth you the true bread from heaven.

33 For the bread of God is he which cometh down from heaven, and giveth life unto the world.

34 Then said they unto him, Lord, evermore give us this bread.

35 And Jesus said unto them, I am the bread of life: he that cometh to me shall never hunger; and he that believeth on me shall never thirst.

36 But I said unto you, That ye also have seen me, and believe not.

37 All that the Father giveth me shall come to me; and him that cometh to me I will in no wise cast out.

38 For I came down from heaven, not to do mine own will, but the will of him that sent me.

39 And this is the Father’s will which hath sent me, that of all which he hath given me I should lose nothing, but should raise it up again at the last day.

40 And this is the will of him that sent me, that every one which seeth the Son, and believeth on him, may have everlasting life: and I will raise him up at the last day.

If Water Baptism were Necessary for Salvation, then it would have been Mentioned, but it is Not.

It is Ridiculous to entertain the notion. That the Bible is requiring Water Baptism for Salvation in Acts 2:38. When dozens of times we are told in the Bible that Salvation is solely by Faith Alone. Without Works.(Ephesians 2:8-10; Genesis 15:6; Isaiah 45:22; Romans 4:5-6; Galatians 3:24-26; Titus 3:5; Romans 11:6).

NEVER lift any particular text out of a passage without considering the surrounding context. The entire Bible for that matter, or else you will wrongly interpret the Bible.

Finally Acts 2:38 the Straightforward reading of this verse is: The Baptism of the Holy Ghost. Of which John the Baptist foretold. There is no Water in Acts 2:38.

Water Baptism is a Work. Just as Circumcision is a Work. For which the Apostle Peter Rebuked. The false prophets in Acts 15:1 who were requiring it for Salvation.

Acts 15:1, “And certain men which came down from Judaea taught the brethren, and said, Except ye be circumcised after the manner of Moses, ye cannot be saved.”

This Heresy is in the same boat as Water Baptism. That is, it is Human Effort (Works).

In Acts Chapter 15. Paul, the other Apostles and the Elders quickly rejected Circumcision as being required for Salvation.

Jesus Died In Our Place On The Cross, At His Feet Was Mary His Mother Crying.

Mary The Mother of Jesus was at Risk Her Entire Life, she was Very Brave.

Mary being pregnant with Jesus, without being married, was in Danger of being put to Death. Stoning was the Penalty for Fornication. Mary and Joseph were in Great Danger from King Herod. They had to Flee from Herod.

Mary was an Active part of the Ministries of Jesus. She Risked Her Life Daily. Mary was Indeed Very Brave.

Matthew 1:18 Now the birth of Jesus Christ was on this wise: When as his mother Mary was espoused to Joseph, before they came together, she was found with child of the Holy Ghost. 19 Then Joseph her husband, being a just man, and not willing to make her a publick example, was minded to put her away privily. 20 But while he thought on these things, behold, the angel of the Lord appeared unto him in a dream, saying, Joseph, thou son of David, fear not to take unto thee Mary thy wife: for that which is conceived in her is of the Holy Ghost. 21 And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name Jesus: for he shall save his people from their sins. 22 Now all this was done, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken of the Lord by the prophet, saying, 23 Behold, a virgin shall be with child, and shall bring forth a son, and they shall call his name Emmanuel, which being interpreted is, God with us. 24 Then Joseph being raised from sleep did as the angel of the Lord had bidden him, and took unto him his wife: 25 And knew her not till she had brought forth her firstborn son: and he called his name Jesus.

Mary was at the Foot of The Cross of Jesus, at his Feet. She Witnessed Jesus Suffering. Mary Watched in Agony, Jesus Dying for 3+ hours.

John 19:23 Then the soldiers, when they had crucified Jesus, took his garments, and made four parts, to every soldier a part; and also his coat: now the coat was without seam, woven from the top throughout. 24 They said therefore among themselves, Let us not rend it, but cast lots for it, whose it shall be: that the scripture might be fulfilled, which saith, They parted my raiment among them, and for my vesture they did cast lots. These things therefore the soldiers did.

25 Now there stood by the cross of Jesus his mother, and his mother’s sister, Mary the wife of Cleophas, and Mary Magdalene.

26 When Jesus therefore saw his mother, and the disciple standing by, whom he loved, he saith unto his mother, Woman, behold thy son! 27 Then saith he to the disciple, Behold thy mother! And from that hour that disciple took her unto his own home.

Mary Never Left Jesus.

Judas Betrayed Jesus. Peter Denied Jesus 3 Times. 9 of the Disciples of Jesus Fled. They Ran Away and hid, after Jesus was Taken Away in Chains in The Garden of Gethsemane. Of the 12 Disciples of Jesus Only John Stayed with Jesus the Whole time. He was with Mary the mother of Jesus, and the 2 other Mary’s at The Cross of Jesus.

Mary was a young woman. Around 16 years old when she discovered:

Luke 1:42 And she spake out with a loud voice, and said, Blessed art thou among women, and blessed is the fruit of thy womb. 43 And whence is this to me, that the mother of my Lord should come to me?44 For, lo, as soon as the voice of thy salutation sounded in mine ears, the babe leaped in my womb for joy.

45 And blessed is she that believed: for there shall be a performance of those things which were told her from the Lord.

46 And Mary said, My soul doth magnify the Lord,

47 And my spirit hath rejoiced in God my Saviour.

48 For he hath regarded the low estate of his handmaiden: for, behold, from henceforth all generations shall call me blessed.

49 For he that is mighty hath done to me great things; and holy is his name.

It is Impossible to comprehend being the mother of Jesus. Jesus was God in the flesh.

Mary became the mother of Jesus by the Holy Ghost. She carried him in her belly for 9 months or so. She Held Him in her arms.

She heard his first words. Watched his first steps…

She knew Jesus her Son was Born to Die for the Sins of the Whole World.

Mary was the only person with Jesus from His Birth to His Death, to his Burial and to his Resurrection.

Mary was Faithful to Jesus.

Being the mother of Jesus was Very Dangerous. Mary Risked being Stoned to Death by her own Family for being pregnant without being married.

King Herod Threaten her Life. Mary traveled far and wide with Jesus and Joseph under the Constant Danger of being found and Murdered.

Mary Suffered Greatly seeing Jesus’s Beaten Bloody Body. She Witnessed the Nails being Driven through the hands and feet of Jesus.

She Felt the Pain and Suffering of Jesus as the Nails were being Driven through his hands and feet.

Mary Suffered along with Jesus as he Hung Nailed on The Cross for 3 plus hours Dying…

Yes, Mary was Blessed by God. She was an Amazing woman the mother of Jesus.

Mary was not God though. She did not stay a virgin. She had Sons and Daughters with Joseph her husband.

Matthew 13:54 And when he was come into his own country, he taught them in their synagogue, insomuch that they were astonished, and said, Whence hath this man this wisdom, and these mighty works?

55 Is not this the carpenter’s son? is not his mother called Mary? and his brethren, James, and Joses, and Simon, and Judas?

56 And his sisters, are they not all with us? Whence then hath this man all these things?

57 And they were offended in him. But Jesus said unto them, A prophet is not without honour, save in his own country, and in his own house.

58 And he did not many mighty works there because of their unbelief.

Catholic Mary Worship
Jesus Died In Our Place On The Cross, At His Feet Was Mary His Mother Crying. 12

Please do not pray to Mary. Do Not Bow Down to Statues, Idols of Mary. Do Not Worship Mary.

Salvation is through Jesus only. Jesus died for the Sins of the Whole World not Mary.

1st John 2:2 “And he is the propitiation for our sins: and not for ours only, but also for the sins of the whole world.”

Hebrews 10:4 For it is not possible that the blood of bulls and of goats should take away sins. 5 Wherefore when he cometh into the world, he saith, Sacrifice and offering thou wouldest not, but a body hast thou prepared me: 6 In burnt offerings and sacrifices for sin thou hast had no pleasure. 7 Then said I, Lo, I come (in the volume of the book it is written of me,) to do thy will, O God. 8 Above when he said, Sacrifice and offering and burnt offerings and offering for sin thou wouldest not, neither hadst pleasure therein; which are offered by the law; 9 Then said he, Lo, I come to do thy will, O God. He taketh away the first, that he may establish the second.

10 By the which will we are sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all.

11 And every priest standeth daily ministering and offering oftentimes the same sacrifices, which can never take away sins:

12 But this man, after he had offered one sacrifice for sins for ever, sat down on the right hand of God;

13 From henceforth expecting till his enemies be made his footstool.

14 For by one offering he hath perfected for ever them that are sanctified.

15 Whereof the Holy Ghost also is a witness to us: for after that he had said before,

16 This is the covenant that I will make with them after those days, saith the Lord, I will put my laws into their hearts, and in their minds will I write them;

17 And their sins and iniquities will I remember no more.

18 Now where remission of these is, there is no more offering for sin.

Mary is worthy of the greatest respect, Not Worship.

This song about Mary Always makes me cry:

“Mary, Did You Know?”

Lyrics Written by Mark Lowry in 1984

Music Written by Buddy Greene in 1991

Mary, did you know
that your Baby Boy would save our sons and daughters?
Did you know
that your Baby Boy has come to make you new?
This Child that you delivered will soon deliver you.

Mary, did you know
that your Baby Boy will give sight to a blind man?
Mary, did you know
that your Baby Boy will calm the storm with His hand?
Did you know
that your Baby Boy has walked where angels trod?
When you kiss your little Baby you kissed the face of God?

Mary did you know. Ooo Ooo Ooo

The blind will see.
The deaf will hear.
The dead will live again.
The lame will leap.
The dumb will speak
The praises of The Lamb.

Mary, did you know
that your Baby Boy is Lord of all creation?
Mary, did you know
that your Baby Boy would one day rule the nations?
Did you know
that your Baby Boy is heaven’s perfect Lamb?
The sleeping Child you’re holding is the Great, I Am.

Finally, Mary the mother of Jesus was a Truly Great woman of God, but she was Only a flesh and blood woman.

Mary is Not: Queen Mother Mary of Heaven, The Virgin Mary, a Goddess. She had Sons and Daughters after Jesus was born. So, No it is a Lie that Mary remained a Virgin her whole Life. 

It is Blasphemy to Pray to the “Virgin” Mary, to Bow down to Her Idols, to Worship her. 

 Salvation is Only Through Jesus:

Jesus died for all Sin. Salvation is a Free Gift offered to Everyone.

The Bible does not say to Repent of Sin. Jesus died for all Sin. No one goes to Hell for Sin. People go to Hell for one reason only for rejecting Jesus free gift of Salvation.

John 1:29 The next day John seeth Jesus coming unto him, and saith, Behold the Lamb of God, which taketh away the sin of the world.

Revelation 1:5 And from Jesus Christ, who is the faithful witness, and the first begotten of the dead, and the prince of the kings of the earth. Unto him that loved us, and washed us from our sins in his own blood,

Matthew 1:21 And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name JESUS: for he shall save his people from their sins.

Colossians 2:14 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;

Hebrews 10:12 But this man, after he had offered one sacrifice for sins for ever, sat down on the right hand of God;

2nd Corinthians 5:15 And that he died for all, that they which live should not henceforth live unto themselves, but unto him which died for them, and rose again.

1st Peter 3:18 For Christ also hath once suffered for sins, the just for the unjust, that he might bring us to God, being put to death in the flesh, but quickened by the Spirit:

1st John 2:2 And he is the propitiation for our sins: and not for ours only, but also for the sins of the whole world.

1st John 3:5 And ye know that he was manifested to take away our sins; and in him is no sin.

1st Peter 2:24 Who his own self bare our sins in his own body on the tree, that we, being dead to sins, should live unto righteousness: by whose stripes ye were healed.

1st John 4:10 Herein is love, not that we loved God, but that he loved us, and sent his Son to be the propitiation for our sins.

Titus 2:14 Who gave himself for us, that he might redeem us from all iniquity, and purify unto himself a peculiar people, zealous of good works.   

Hebrews 1:3 Who being the brightness of his glory, and the express image of his person, and upholding all things by the word of his power, when he had by himself purged our sins, sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on high;  

2nd Corinthians 5:21 For he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him.

John 3:12 If I have told you earthly things, and ye believe not, how shall ye believe, if I tell you of heavenly things?

13 And no man hath ascended up to heaven, but he that came down from heaven, even the Son of man which is in heaven.

14 And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of man be lifted up:

15 That whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have eternal life.

16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.

17 For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved.

18 He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.

Believe on Jesus Only to be Saved. If you have not Asked Jesus to Save You, Please Ask him Right Now to Save You. Trust in Jesus Only to Save you. Believe The Gospel to be Saved:

1st Corinthians 15:1 Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand; 2 By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain. 3 For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; 4 And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:

Romans 10:8 But what saith it? The word is nigh thee, even in thy mouth, and in thy heart: that is, the word of faith, which we preach; 9 That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. 10 For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. 11 For the scripture saith, Whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed. 12 For there is no difference between the Jew and the Greek: for the same Lord over all is rich unto all that call upon him. 13 For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.

Salvation How To Be Saved.

Is there any place in the Bible where Salvation is Explained? How to Be Saved. Explained by Jesus, by John, by Paul?

Yes. Jesus says Believe on me to Be Saved. The Book of John is the Salvation Gospel. The Book of Romans is Paul explaining Salvation.

There is only one place in the Bible Where a person asks how to be Saved.

Acts 16:30 And brought them out, and said, Sirs, what must I do to be saved?

31 And they said, Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved, and thy house.

The Greatest possible Question and Answer.

Question? What must I do to be Saved?

Answer: Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved, and thy house.

If you Believe the Bible is the 100% True word of God than this is how a person is Saved, period!!!! Plus nothing else.

When you read the Bible. You need to look at the entire context of the verse you are using.

Ask the following questions. Who is speaking? Who is being spoken to? What is the context? If the context is Saved from Physical Death, from earthly things, than it is Not Salvation from Hell. Saved from Hell.

Salvation verses are to Lost people. The audience is Lost people. Some verses that are Not Salvation verses. Are when the person speaking. Is talking to an audience of people who are Saved. Obviously if the audience is a group of Saved people. The subject being spoken about is not Saved from Hell. It is typically instructions for Living Life as a Christian.

Here is the entire passage in Acts Chapter 16.

The only place in the Bible where a person clearly asks. What must I do to be Saved? And the Apostle Paul answers the question.

Acts 16:25 And at midnight Paul and Silas prayed, and sang praises unto God: and the prisoners heard them.

26 And suddenly there was a great earthquake, so that the foundations of the prison were shaken: and immediately all the doors were opened, and every one’s bands were loosed.

27 And the keeper of the prison awaking out of his sleep, and seeing the prison doors open, he drew out his sword, and would have killed himself, supposing that the prisoners had been fled.

28 But Paul cried with a loud voice, saying, Do thyself no harm: for we are all here.

29 Then he called for a light, and sprang in, and came trembling, and fell down before Paul and Silas,

30 And brought them out, and said, Sirs, what must I do to be saved?

31 And they said, Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved, and thy house.

32 And they spake unto him the word of the Lord, and to all that were in his house.

To be Saved from Hell. Believe on Jesus. In the next verse Jesus tells us how to be Saved.

John 6:47 “Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me hath everlasting life.”

Understand. This is Jesus saying, how to be Saved: “He that believeth on me hath everlasting life.”

It can not get any clearer than this verse. Jesus did not say “Being Saved is a process with many steps…” “You have to Repent of all of your Sins.” “You must Forsake and Turn from Sin.”

No Jesus said: “He that believeth on me hath everlasting life.” This is immediate Salvation for just Believing on Jesus. Hath Everlasting Life means exactly that. You are Saved as soon as you Believe on Jesus.

Believe on Jesus only to be Saved. Is Not an Isolated Teaching. The Bible says this repeatedly.

John 5:24 “Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that heareth my word, and believeth on him that sent me, hath everlasting life, and shall not come into condemnation; but is passed from death unto life.”

John 3:36 “He that believeth on the Son hath everlasting life: and he that believeth not the Son shall not see life; but the wrath of God abideth on him.”

Acts 4:12 “Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved.”

Belief in Jesus ONLY to Save you is what the Bible teaches.

John 8:24 “I said therefore unto you, that ye shall die in your sins: for if ye believe not that I am he, ye shall die in your sins.”

John 14:6 “Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.”

1st Peter 1:18 Forasmuch as ye know that ye were not redeemed with corruptible things, as silver and gold, from your vain conversation received by tradition from your fathers;

19 But with the precious blood of Christ, as of a lamb without blemish and without spot:

20 Who verily was foreordained before the foundation of the world, but was manifest in these last times for you,

21 Who by him do believe in God, that raised him up from the dead, and gave him glory; that your faith and hope might be in God.

22 Seeing ye have purified your souls in obeying the truth through the Spirit unto unfeigned love of the brethren, see that ye love one another with a pure heart fervently:

23 Being born again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, by the word of God, which liveth and abideth for ever.

24 For all flesh is as grass, and all the glory of man as the flower of grass. The grass withereth, and the flower thereof falleth away:

25 But the word of the Lord endureth for ever. And this is the word which by the gospel is preached unto you.

If you Believe on Jesus than you Believe the Gospel.

1st Corinthians 15:1 Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand;

2 By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain.

3 For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures;

4 And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:

Romans 10:8 But what saith it? The word is nigh thee, even in thy mouth, and in thy heart: that is, the word of faith, which we preach;

9 That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.

10 For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.

11 For the scripture saith, Whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed.

12 For there is no difference between the Jew and the Greek: for the same Lord over all is rich unto all that call upon him.

13 For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.

Please if you have not Asked Jesus to Save you Please Ask Jesus right now to Save you.

As soon as you Believe the Gospel. As the only way to be Saved. Than you will be immediately Saved.
