Jonah And Lot Are Examples of God’s Mercy

Jonah was a very complicated person.

Thousands of Sermons, Let alone Children’s Bible Lessons, have been given on the Book of Jonah. It is rich with Bible Lessons to be taught and Learned.

Jonah was a Vile Wicked Person:

Jonah 4:11 But it displeased Jonah exceedingly, and he was very angry. 2 And he prayed unto the Lord, and said, I pray thee, O Lord, was not this my saying, when I was yet in my country? Therefore I fled before unto Tarshish: for I knew that thou art a gracious God, and merciful, slow to anger, and of great kindness, and repentest thee of the evil. 3 Therefore now, O Lord, take, I beseech thee, my life from me; for it is better for me to die than to live. 4 Then said the Lord, Doest thou well to be angry?

Jonah was Displeased with and Angry at God… Wow!!!

I have seen this attitude in “Christians” for over 40 years. There is a Lot of Hate in “Christians” in Pastor’s.

I know Pastor’s that are Like Jonah. These Wicked Pastor’s do Not Want to See Everyone Saved. One example is they Hate Homosexuals. If they have anything to do with them it is Full of Hate.

News Flash Homosexuality is Not an Unforgivable Sin.

Yes Saved people can be and many are Homosexuals. Just like there are Christians caught up in Numerous Sins: Adultery, Cheating on their Wives / their Husbands, Fornication, Being Drunks, Drug Addiction, etc…, the List of Sins is extremely Long.

There are Hate Groups that Parade about as “Christians” as “Christian Churches” that attend LGBTQIA+ events Not to Try and see anyone Saved. They go to Mock, to Attack them Not to Share the Gospel.

Wicked Vile Christians:

These Wicked People (Some of them are probably Saved Like Jonah…) Do Not Want Homosexuals to Be Saved. They are Hypocrites. They discount their own Sins… They think they are Better than the Homosexuals. I have News for You. Your own Sins are Not Better than the Sin of Homosexuality. Homosexuality is a Sin like Smoking, Drinking, Sexual Sins, Drug Addiction, any Other Addiction.

I have seen these type of “Christian” Hypocrites that Get into other People’s Faces about Sin, I have seen them Smoking, doing things that they get into other people’s faces about. I Even knew a Church going closet Homosexual who was like this.

Closeted Homosexuals in numerous Baptist Churches (Not All, a portion of them.) will attend Anti-Homosexual Rallies and be one of the Biggest voices Condemning them. The History of Congress / Politicians has shown us that Many outspoken Politicians that have made it their mission to Speak out against Homosexuals are themselves Homosexuals.

Jonah Finally Does What God Told him to Do.

Jonah 3:1 And the word of the Lord came unto Jonah the second time, saying, 2 Arise, go unto Nineveh, that great city, and preach unto it the preaching that I bid thee. 3 So Jonah arose, and went unto Nineveh, according to the word of the Lord. Now Nineveh was an exceeding great city of three days’ journey. 4 And Jonah began to enter into the city a day’s journey, and he cried, and said, Yet forty days, and Nineveh shall be overthrown. 5 So the people of Nineveh believed God, and proclaimed a fast, and put on sackcloth, from the greatest of them even to the least of them. 6 For word came unto the king of Nineveh, and he arose from his throne, and he laid his robe from him, and covered him with sackcloth, and sat in ashes. 7 And he caused it to be proclaimed and published through Nineveh by the decree of the king and his nobles, saying, Let neither man nor beast, herd nor flock, taste any thing: let them not feed, nor drink water: 8 But let man and beast be covered with sackcloth, and cry mightily unto God: yea, let them turn every one from his evil way, and from the violence that is in their hands. 9 Who can tell if God will turn and repent, and turn away from his fierce anger, that we perish not? 10 And God saw their works, that they turned from their evil way; and God repented of the evil, that he had said that he would do unto them; and he did it not.

Jonah 3:9,10 are used by False Teachers to Teach the False Gospel of Repent of Sin to Be Saved. The context of Jonah 3:9,10 is very important. Please read to the end. I will explain Jonah 3:9,10 below.

Hypocrites are Everywhere. Jonah was a Huge Hypocrite.

Jonah was a very Poor Excuse for an Evangelist. He was a Bitter Judgmental Hypocrite that was Happy to see Thousands of people killed by God. He was Angry that God did Not Just Kill them. He wanted to see God Kill them. Jonah was a Blood Thirsty Psychopath.

Jonah and Lot

The Bible depiction of Jonah and Lot are very similar in one aspect. They both had the opportunity to Save a City / Cities. With Lot he was tasked with Saving The Cities On The Plain. Which included Sodom and Gomorrah.

Both Lot and Jonah had the ability to Save a City / Cities from destruction. Lot wanted to Save the lives of all the people in all the Cities on the plain. But Jonah on the other hand Hated the people of Nineveh and wanted to Watch Them All Burn like Sodom and Gomorrah did.

Saved People, Evangelist, etc…, Can Be Vile Sinners.

The Scriptures show that Jonah was Vile. Jonah was and remained a man of God… Lot is Vile as well Remember he had Sex with his two daughters.  But at least he wanted to Save Lives so I put Lot way ahead of Jonah.

Proof that God Wrote the Bible is seen in the depictions of both Jonah and Lot.

The Bible shows how Vile they Both were. (Lot had Sex with Both of his Daughters.) The Bible doesn’t cover up the Sins of Bible Saints. Yes both Lot and Jonah were Saints of God. They were imperfect but God still used them.

Lot’s Task:

Lot was tasked with having to have Saved 10 souls only his own household. His household would have been much more than 10 souls. For example Abraham’s household was in the hundreds.

Genesis 18:23 And Abraham drew near, and said, Wilt thou also destroy the righteous with the wicked? 24 Peradventure there be fifty righteous within the city: wilt thou also destroy and not spare the place for the fifty righteous that are therein?

Abraham expected that Lot would have at least 10 members of his household who were Saved. So when Abraham was able to get God to agree to spare the Cites if 10 righteous people were found he stopped thinking that Lot certainly had 10 people Saved in his household.

There is Only One True Way to Be Saved in the Bible:

Bible Salvation is Believing the Gospel Only to be Saved. No person has / will go to Hell the Lake of Fire because of Sin. Jesus died for all Sin.

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.”

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.”

Hebrews 9:13 For if the blood of bulls and of goats, and the ashes of an heifer sprinkling the unclean, sanctifieth to the purifying of the flesh:14 How much more shall the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered himself without spot to God, purge your conscience from dead works to serve the living God?15 And for this cause he is the mediator of the new testament, that by means of death, for the redemption of the transgressions that were under the first testament, they which are called might receive the promise of eternal inheritance.16 For where a testament is, there must also of necessity be the death of the testator.

A Testament is God’s contract with Mankind on how he is dealing with man in regard to Mankind’s Salvation.

God gave Israel the Law in the Old Testament.

The Testator of the Old Testament were animals like sheep.

The New Testament Testator was Jesus. Jesus death began the New Testament.

In the New Testament Salvation is defined as 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:

A person is Saved by Believing in Jesus as the only way to Heaven. Believing that Jesus death, burial and resurrection is the only possible payment for our Sins. The only way to be Saved is putting our faith in Jesus to save us.

Were Old Testament Believers Saved by Jesus Only too?

Yes.

Jesus’ Death on the Cross Gives Eternal Salvation for All Believers, whether they lived before or after him.

In both the Old and New Testament everyone is Saved By Grace, through Faith in Jesus.

The Law was given to Show all Mankind that no one could keep the Law. The Law showed us that we were Sinners in need of a Saviour.

The death of animals were the Testator of the Old Testament to show that Sin required a Blood Sacrifice.

Believers in the Old Testament were not saved by being obedient to the law of God. The Bible clearly teaches this:

Romans 3:20 “Therefore by the deeds of the law there shall no flesh be justified in his sight: for by the law is the knowledge of sin.”

We are not good enough to earn Heaven. That is true for us now, and it was also true for believers in the Old Testament.

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 Justified by Grace through Faith Alone in Jesus.

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.

Lot’s and Jonah’s tasks were the same.

Lot failed to Save 10 souls. Jonah was very successful, despite his own feelings, in Saving enough Souls that God decided to Spare Nineveh.

Jonah 3:9 Who can tell if God will turn and repent, and turn away from his fierce anger, that we perish not? 10 And God saw their works, that they turned from their evil way; and God repented of the evil, that he had said that he would do unto them; and he did it not.

Explaining Jonah 3:9,10

10 And God saw their works…

Their Works… God is Telling us here that Turning From Sins their Evil Way is Works.

I hear Countless People who push the Repent of Sin False Gospel Say that Repenting of Sin is Not Works. God Clearly says that it is Works. Repent of Sin is also called: To Forsake Sin and To Turn From Sin to be Saved.

The people of Nineveh were trusting in their Own Good Works to Save them just like every Lost person in history. The Evil way they Turned from was not Sin, it was Trusting in their own Good Works.

The people of Nineveh were Saved by Believing the Gospel Only.

Abraham was Lot’s brother and Abraham knew the Gospel so it is a given that Lot also knew the Gospel and Believed the Gospel just like Abraham.

Jonah God’s Evangelist, he obviously knew the Gospel. He was an Evangelist, a Soul Winner. If you understand the entire Bible you will see that the Gospel started in Genesis and is present throughout the whole Bible.

Jonah 3:5 “So the people of Nineveh believed God…”

Nineveh was Saved by the people in Nineveh that Believed God. The only way to be Saved is to Believe the Gospel in both the Old and New Testaments.

The people of Nineveh did not just Believe that God would destroy Nineveh (They obviously knew that God had destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah.) that fact was a given. Jonah’s Preaching showed them they were Trusting in their Own Good Works to Save themselves.

Jonah 3:5 So the people of Nineveh believed God, and proclaimed a fast, and put on sackcloth, from the greatest of them even to the least of them. 6 For word came unto the king of Nineveh, and he arose from his throne, and he laid his robe from him, and covered him with sackcloth, and sat in ashes. 7 And he caused it to be proclaimed and published through Nineveh by the decree of the king and his nobles, saying, Let neither man nor beast, herd nor flock, taste any thing: let them not feed, nor drink water: 8 But let man and beast be covered with sackcloth, and cry mightily unto God: yea, let them turn every one from his evil way, and from the violence that is in their hands. 9 Who can tell if God will turn and repent, and turn away from his fierce anger, that we perish not? 10 And God saw their works, that they turned from their evil way; and God repented of the evil, that he had said that he would do unto them; and he did it not.

FORGIVEN: JESUS FORGIVES. JESUS’ MERCIFUL FORGIVENESS

Jesus Ministry of Forgiveness

Luke 23:34 Then said Jesus, Father, forgive them; for they know not what they do. And they parted his raiment, and cast lots.

Matthew 6:9 After this manner therefore pray ye: Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name. 10 Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven. 11 Give us this day our daily bread. 12 And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors. 13 And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil: For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever. Amen. 14 For if ye forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you: 15 But if ye forgive not men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses.

Matthew 18:21 Then came Peter to him, and said, Lord, how oft shall my brother sin against me, and I forgive him? till seven times? 22 Jesus saith unto him, I say not unto thee, Until seven times: but, Until seventy times seven.

Ephesians 1:7 In whom we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of his grace;

Colossians 1:4 In whom we have redemption through his blood, even the forgiveness of sins: 15 Who is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of every creature:

Colossians 1:12 Giving thanks unto the Father, which hath made us meet to be partakers of the inheritance of the saints in light: 13 Who hath delivered us from the power of darkness, and hath translated us into the kingdom of his dear Son: 14 In whom we have redemption through his blood, even the forgiveness of sins: 15 Who is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of every creature: 16 For by him were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers: all things were created by him, and for him: 17 And he is before all things, and by him all things consist. 18 And he is the head of the body, the church: who is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead; that in all things he might have the preeminence.

Salvation = Accepting Jesus Forgiveness

Free Will Allows us to Either Accept Jesus Forgiveness or to Reject Jesus: Reject Jesus Mercy his Forgiveness.

Luke 23:34 Then said Jesus, Father, forgive them; for they know not what they do. And they parted his raiment, and cast lots. 35 And the people stood beholding. And the rulers also with them derided him, saying, He saved others; let him save himself, if he be Christ, the chosen of God. 36 And the soldiers also mocked him, coming to him, and offering him vinegar, 37 And saying, If thou be the king of the Jews, save thyself. 38 And a superscription also was written over him in letters of Greek, and Latin, and Hebrew, This Is The King Of The Jews. 39 And one of the malefactors which were hanged railed on him, saying, If thou be Christ, save thyself and us. 40 But the other answering rebuked him, saying, Dost not thou fear God, seeing thou art in the same condemnation? 41 And we indeed justly; for we receive the due reward of our deeds: but this man hath done nothing amiss. 42 And he said unto Jesus, Lord, remember me when thou comest into thy kingdom. 43 And Jesus said unto him, Verily I say unto thee, To day shalt thou be with me in paradise. 44 And it was about the sixth hour, and there was a darkness over all the earth until the ninth hour. 45 And the sun was darkened, and the veil of the temple was rent in the midst. 46 And when Jesus had cried with a loud voice, he said, Father, into thy hands I commend my spirit: and having said thus, he gave up the ghost. 47 Now when the centurion saw what was done, he glorified God, saying, Certainly this was a righteous man. 48 And all the people that came together to that sight, beholding the things which were done, smote their breasts, and returned. 49 And all his acquaintance, and the women that followed him from Galilee, stood afar off, beholding these things.

Salvation is as Simple as Asking Jesus to Save You.

Before the Thief on the Cross Asked Jesus to Save him, Jesus had already Forgiven him.

No One Goes to Hell for Sin. People Go to Hell Only Because they Reject Jesus Forgiveness, His Free Gift of Salvation.

Why do People Reject Jesus?

Because People Are Proud. They Don’t Want to Be Saved. They Don’t Want to Be Told what is Right and What is Wrong.

Judges 21:25 In those days there was no king in Israel: every man did that which was right in his own eyes.

Psalms 12:4 Who have said, With our tongue will we prevail; our lips are our own: who is lord over us?

Proverbs 14:9 Fools make a mock at sin: but among the righteous there is favour. 10 The heart knoweth his own bitterness; and a stranger doth not intermeddle with his joy. 11 The house of the wicked shall be overthrown: but the tabernacle of the upright shall flourish. 12 There is a way which seemeth right unto a man, but the end thereof are the ways of death. 13 Even in laughter the heart is sorrowful; and the end of that mirth is heaviness. 14 The backslider in heart shall be filled with his own ways: and a good man shall be satisfied from himself. 15 The simple believeth every word: but the prudent man looketh well to his going. 16 A wise man feareth, and departeth from evil: but the fool rageth, and is confident. 17 He that is soon angry dealeth foolishly: and a man of wicked devices is hated. 18 The simple inherit folly: but the prudent are crowned with knowledge.

Micah 2:1 Woe to them that devise iniquity, and work evil upon their beds! when the morning is light, they practice it, because it is in the power of their hand. 2 And they covet fields, and take them by violence; and houses, and take them away: so they oppress a man and his house, even a man and his heritage.

Job 21:13 They spend their days in wealth, and in a moment go down to the grave. 14 Therefore they say unto God, Depart from us; for we desire not the knowledge of thy ways. 15 What is the Almighty, that we should serve him? and what profit should we have, if we pray unto him? 16 Lo, their good is not in their hand: the counsel of the wicked is far from me. 17 How oft is the candle of the wicked put out! and how oft cometh their destruction upon them! God distributeth sorrows in his anger. 18 They are as stubble before the wind, and as chaff that the storm carrieth away.

The Lost Cry: Do Not Judge Me!!!

Do Not Judge Me!!! People Love to say this. They Hate Jesus / Christianity because they Do Not Want to be Held accountable for the Sins they Commit. They Love Being Wicked.

Proverbs 6:12 A naughty person, a wicked man, walketh with a froward mouth. 13 He winketh with his eyes, he speaketh with his feet, he teacheth with his fingers; 14 Frowardness is in his heart, he deviseth mischief continually; he soweth discord. 15 Therefore shall his calamity come suddenly; suddenly shall he be broken without remedy. 16 These six things doth the Lord hate: yea, seven are an abomination unto him: 17 A proud look, a lying tongue, and hands that shed innocent blood, 18 An heart that deviseth wicked imaginations, feet that be swift in running to mischief, 19 A false witness that speaketh lies, and he that soweth discord among brethren.

Proverbs 2:11 Discretion shall preserve thee, understanding shall keep thee: 12 To deliver thee from the way of the evil man, from the man that speaketh froward things; 13 Who leave the paths of uprightness, to walk in the ways of darkness; 14 Who rejoice to do evil, and delight in the frowardness of the wicked; 15 Whose ways are crooked, and they froward in their paths: 16 To deliver thee from the strange woman, even from the stranger which flattereth with her words; 17 Which forsaketh the guide of her youth, and forgetteth the covenant of her God. 18 For her house inclineth unto death, and her paths unto the dead. 19 None that go unto her return again, neither take they hold of the paths of life. 20 That thou mayest walk in the way of good men, and keep the paths of the righteous.

This Type of Person, an EVIL Woman Loves her Sin. She Denies it is Sin.

Proverbs 30:20 Such is the way of an adulterous woman; she eateth, and wipeth her mouth, and saith, I have done no wickedness.

Men and Women Love their SINS and Deny that it is Even SIN. They are Not even a Little bit Ashamed of their Sins.

God Warns us about EVIL. There are EVIL Men and Women. The above passages are a Warning. People Hate the Bible because it Tells them who they are. It tells them NOT TO SIN.

EVIL Men and Women they Love the EVIL that they do. They want to Corrupt as many people as possible.

SEX Obsession Destroys!!!

Society Worships SEX.

A Man cannot be a Man Until He Has Has SEX… This is what Society says. SEX makes a Girl a Woman according to Society… Men and Women are Driven, Controlled by SEX!!!

Children are Sexualized by Hollywood. Preteen Girls and Boys are made SEX objects in Magazines, Online, on TV, in Movies.

Lolita (1955, Pedophile SEX being Normalized is Nothing New.) is about a Man’s Obsession and Sexual affair with a 12 year old Girl. Hollywood has made several films about this Novel. And countless similar Movies with Men and even Women having Sex with young Children. Book and Film critics say Lolita is ART.

Hollywood, Books, the Media, Sell SEX!!! The message is SEX is OK, Is Amazing, with Anyone you want to have SEX with, their Age doesn’t Matter…

People in this EVIL World LOVE Their SIN. They Think Everything they Do is Right.

Luke 16:13 No servant can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon. 14 And the Pharisees also, who were covetous, heard all these things: and they derided him. 15 And he said unto them, Ye are they which justify yourselves before men; but God knoweth your hearts: for that which is highly esteemed among men is abomination in the sight of God.

Titus 1:15 Unto the pure all things are pure: but unto them that are defiled and unbelieving is nothing pure; but even their mind and conscience is defiled. 16 They profess that they know God; but in works they deny him, being abominable, and disobedient, and unto every good work reprobate.

Proverbs 16:25 There is a way that seemeth right unto a man, but the end thereof are the ways of death. 26 He that laboureth laboureth for himself; for his mouth craveth it of him. 27 An ungodly man diggeth up evil: and in his lips there is as a burning fire. 28 A froward man soweth strife: and a whisperer separateth chief friends. 29 A violent man enticeth his neighbour, and leadeth him into the way that is not good. 30 He shutteth his eyes to devise froward things: moving his lips he bringeth evil to pass.

Proverbs 21:2 Every way of a man is right in his own eyes: but the Lord pondereth the hearts. 3 To do justice and judgment is more acceptable to the Lord than sacrifice. 4 An high look, and a proud heart, and the plowing of the wicked, is sin. 5 The thoughts of the diligent tend only to plenteousness; but of every one that is hasty only to want. 6 The getting of treasures by a lying tongue is a vanity tossed to and fro of them that seek death. 7 The robbery of the wicked shall destroy them; because they refuse to do judgment. 8 The way of man is froward and strange: but as for the pure, his work is right. 9 It is better to dwell in a corner of the housetop, than with a brawling woman in a wide house. 10 The soul of the wicked desireth evil: his neighbour findeth no favour in his eyes. 11 When the scorner is punished, the simple is made wise: and when the wise is instructed, he receiveth knowledge. 12 The righteous man wisely considereth the house of the wicked: but God overthroweth the wicked for their wickedness.

Proud of Sin!!!

Isaiah 3:9 The shew of their countenance doth witness against them; and they declare their sin as Sodom, they hide it not. Woe unto their soul! for they have rewarded evil unto themselves. 10 Say ye to the righteous, that it shall be well with him: for they shall eat the fruit of their doings. 11 Woe unto the wicked! it shall be ill with him: for the reward of his hands shall be given him.

2nd Timothy 3:1 This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come. 2 For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, 3 Without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good, 4 Traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God; 5 Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away. 6 For of this sort are they which creep into houses, and lead captive silly women laden with sins, led away with divers lusts, 7 Ever learning, and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth. 8 Now as Jannes and Jambres withstood Moses, so do these also resist the truth: men of corrupt minds, reprobate concerning the faith. 9 But they shall proceed no further: for their folly shall be manifest unto all men, as theirs also was.

Wicked EVIL People:

Proverbs 28:1 The wicked flee when no man pursueth: but the righteous are bold as a lion.

1st John 5:19 And we know that we are of God, and the whole world lieth in wickedness. 20 And we know that the Son of God is come, and hath given us an understanding, that we may know him that is true, and we are in him that is true, even in his Son Jesus Christ. This is the true God, and eternal life.

Psalms 5:4 For thou art not a God that hath pleasure in wickedness: neither shall evil dwell with thee. 5 The foolish shall not stand in thy sight: thou hatest all workers of iniquity. 6 Thou shalt destroy them that speak leasing: the Lord will abhor the bloody and deceitful man.

Psalms 34:10 The young lions do lack, and suffer hunger: but they that seek the Lord shall not want any good thing. 11 Come, ye children, hearken unto me: I will teach you the fear of the Lord. 12 What man is he that desireth life, and loveth many days, that he may see good? 13 Keep thy tongue from evil, and thy lips from speaking guile. 14 Depart from evil, and do good; seek peace, and pursue it. 15 The eyes of the Lord are upon the righteous, and his ears are open unto their cry. 16 The face of the Lord is against them that do evil, to cut off the remembrance of them from the earth. 17 The righteous cry, and the Lord heareth, and delivereth them out of all their troubles. 18 The Lord is nigh unto them that are of a broken heart; and saveth such as be of a contrite spirit. 19 Many are the afflictions of the righteous: but the Lord delivereth him out of them all. 20 He keepeth all his bones: not one of them is broken. 21 Evil shall slay the wicked: and they that hate the righteous shall be desolate. 22 The Lord redeemeth the soul of his servants: and none of them that trust in him shall be desolate.

Why Do People Go To Hell?

People Go To Hell For Rejecting Jesus. They Get Mad at Being Told they Need to be Forgiven. They Hate Jesus. They Love their Sin. They Hate Being Made to Feel Guilty for their Sinful Behavior.

John 3:19 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.

John 8:42 Jesus said unto them, If God were your Father, ye would love me: for I proceeded forth and came from God; neither came I of myself, but he sent me. 43 Why do ye not understand my speech? even because ye cannot hear my word. 44 Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it. 45 And because I tell you the truth, ye believe me not. 46 Which of you convinceth me of sin? And if I say the truth, why do ye not believe me? 47 He that is of God heareth God’s words: ye therefore hear them not, because ye are not of God. 48 Then answered the Jews, and said unto him, Say we not well that thou art a Samaritan, and hast a devil? 49 Jesus answered, I have not a devil; but I honour my Father, and ye do dishonour me. 50 And I seek not mine own glory: there is one that seeketh and judgeth. 51 Verily, verily, I say unto you, If a man keep my saying, he shall never see death. 52 Then said the Jews unto him, Now we know that thou hast a devil. Abraham is dead, and the prophets; and thou sayest, If a man keep my saying, he shall never taste of death.

People who Reject Jesus Hate Jesus.

John 7:6 Then Jesus said unto them, My time is not yet come: but your time is alway ready. 7 The world cannot hate you; but me it hateth, because I testify of it, that the works thereof are evil.

To Be Saved a person has to Realize they are Lost, a Sinner that Needs to be Saved from Hell.

Jesus Preached the Forgiveness of Sin.

That he was the Savior who came to Save the World. Jesus Came to Pay the Penalty for All of the Sins of the World.

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.

John 12:44 Jesus cried and said, He that believeth on me, believeth not on me, but on him that sent me. 45 And he that seeth me seeth him that sent me. 46 I am come a light into the world, that whosoever believeth on me should not abide in darkness. 47 And if any man hear my words, and believe not, I judge him not: for I came not to judge the world, but to save the world. 48 He that rejecteth me, and receiveth not my words, hath one that judgeth him: the word that I have spoken, the same shall judge him in the last day. 49 For I have not spoken of myself; but the Father which sent me, he gave me a commandment, what I should say, and what I should speak. 50 And I know that his commandment is life everlasting: whatsoever I speak therefore, even as the Father said unto me, so I speak.

Matthew 20:28 Even as the Son of man came not to be ministered unto, but to minister, and to give his life a ransom for many.

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.

As God Jesus had the Power to Forgive Sin

Matthew 9:2 And, behold, they brought to him a man sick of the palsy, lying on a bed: and Jesus seeing their faith said unto the sick of the palsy; Son, be of good cheer; thy sins be forgiven thee. 3 And, behold, certain of the scribes said within themselves, This man blasphemeth. 4 And Jesus knowing their thoughts said, Wherefore think ye evil in your hearts? 5 For whether is easier, to say, Thy sins be forgiven thee; or to say, Arise, and walk? 6 But that ye may know that the Son of man hath power on earth to forgive sins, (then saith he to the sick of the palsy,) Arise, take up thy bed, and go unto thine house. 7 And he arose, and departed to his house. 8 But when the multitudes saw it, they marvelled, and glorified God, which had given such power unto men.

Luke 7:47 Wherefore I say unto thee, Her sins, which are many, are forgiven; for she loved much: but to whom little is forgiven, the same loveth little. 48 And he said unto her, Thy sins are forgiven. 49 And they that sat at meat with him began to say within themselves, Who is this that forgiveth sins also? 50 And he said to the woman, Thy faith hath saved thee; go in peace.

People Go to Hell Because they Refuse to Believe on Jesus Only to Save them.

John 10:22 And it was at Jerusalem the feast of the dedication, and it was winter. 23 And Jesus walked in the temple in Solomon’s porch. 24 Then came the Jews round about him, and said unto him, How long dost thou make us to doubt? If thou be the Christ, tell us plainly. 25 Jesus answered them, I told you, and ye believed not: the works that I do in my Father’s name, they bear witness of me. 26 But ye believe not, because ye are not of my sheep, as I said unto you. 27 My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me: 28 And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand. 29 My Father, which gave them me, is greater than all; and no man is able to pluck them out of my Father’s hand. 30 I and my Father are one. 31 Then the Jews took up stones again to stone him. 32 Jesus answered them, Many good works have I shewed you from my Father; for which of those works do ye stone me? 33 The Jews answered him, saying, For a good work we stone thee not; but for blasphemy; and because that thou, being a man, makest thyself God. 34 Jesus answered them, Is it not written in your law, I said, Ye are gods? 35 If he called them gods, unto whom the word of God came, and the scripture cannot be broken; 36 Say ye of him, whom the Father hath sanctified, and sent into the world, Thou blasphemest; because I said, I am the Son of God? 37 If I do not the works of my Father, believe me not. 38 But if I do, though ye believe not me, believe the works: that ye may know, and believe, that the Father is in me, and I in him. 39 Therefore they sought again to take him: but he escaped out of their hand, 40 And went away again beyond Jordan into the place where John at first baptized; and there he abode. 41 And many resorted unto him, and said, John did no miracle: but all things that John spake of this man were true. 42 And many believed on him there.

The Gospel = Love. Preach, Teach, The Love Of The Lord Jesus Christ.

The Love of Jesus

John 15:13 Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends.

This is Love. Jesus’ Love. There is No Greater Love than this.

The Gospel is the Love of Jesus 

The Gospel: Jesus Died was Buried, he Rose from the Dead on the 3rd Day to pay the Penalty for ALL the Sins of the World.

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.

Jesus Did Not Just Die for our Sins. He Bore our Sins in his own Body. He bore the Weight of All of our Sins. Rape, Murder, Lying, Stealing, etc…

Think about it. Billions of People All their Sins. Jesus Bore All their Sins in his own Body. This is Mind Boggling.

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.

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 Timothy 2:3 For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Saviour; 4 Who will have all men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth. 5 For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus; 6 Who gave himself a ransom for all, to be testified in due time.

Jesus Became Sin For Us

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.

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:

Jesus Suffered for our Sins

Jesus Sufferings were Not Only The Physical Punishment he Endured. He Bore Our Sins in HIS BODY. He Bore Our Griefs, Our Sorrows. The Weight of All of this, the Pain it Caused is Beyond Measure.

Jesus Physically Suffered more than anyone in history. Beatings, The Crown of Thorns placed on his head, Carrying his Cross, His Crucifixion being Nailed to the Cross, etc…

If you have a Conscience you will Feel the Weight of All of your Sins.

Starting from when I was a little kid, I felt Guilty, Depressed because of the things I did Wrong, because of my Sins.

If you can walk around and claim: “Oh I have Not Done Anything I feel Guilty About. I would Not Change a thing if I could.” You are the Worst type of person, Full of Pride, a Liar.

Jesus Sacrifice, His Suffering For Our Sins

1st Peter 2:21 For even hereunto were ye called: because Christ also suffered for us, leaving us an example, that ye should follow his steps: 22 Who did no sin, neither was guile found in his mouth: 23 Who, when he was reviled, reviled not again; when he suffered, he threatened not; but committed himself to him that judgeth righteously: 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. 25 For ye were as sheep going astray; but are now returned unto the Shepherd and Bishop of your souls.

Isaiah 53:4 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.

Isaiah Chapter 53 is the most Powerful Chapter in the Entire Bible.

Isaiah 53 describes Jesus, his Sufferings, his Crucifixion.

A note * Leave any Church that teaches that people in the Old Testament did not know about Jesus Christ. That they were Saved by Works. No one was Saved by Works.

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

Jesus Christ is in the Entire Bible from Genesis to Revelation. The Most Powerful Chapter in the Bible about Jesus is in the Old Testament that should tell you Something.

Isaiah 53:4 Surely he hath borne our griefs, and carried our sorrows: yet we did esteem him stricken, smitten of God, and afflicted.

Jesus Suffered Deeply by taking All of our Griefs, and our Sorrows. Our human minds cannot comprehend the Pain and Suffering Jesus Bore for us…

Beware of False Churches

I am Sick of hearing False Pastors, Preachers Say Things like: “Love, Love, Love, Puke. If you want to hear Love, Love, Love go to another Church. This Church is a Hell Fire and Damnation Preaching Church. We Don’t Sugar Coat the Bible. We Preach Hard Against Sin. We Don’t Believe in the Gospel of Love…”

For 10 years I was in Churches that said this nearly every time I went to them. These Churches, Any Church that says things like this is a False Religion that does Not Understand the Bible, Salvation.

They Openly Mock Jesus and Refuse to Preach the One True Gospel. The Gospel Only for Salvation found in 1st Corinthians 15:1-4 and in many other Verses. The Gospel is Love.

The Gospel is Love

John 3:16 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.

Salvation, the Gospel Begins and Ends with God’s Love

1st John 3:16 Hereby perceive we the love of God, because he laid down his life for us: and we ought to lay down our lives for the brethren.

Romans 5:5 And hope maketh not ashamed; because the love of God is shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy Ghost which is given unto us. 6 For when we were yet without strength, in due time Christ died for the ungodly. 8 But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us. 9 Much more then, being now justified by his blood, we shall be saved from wrath through him. 10 For if, when we were enemies, we were reconciled to God by the death of his Son, much more, being reconciled, we shall be saved by his life. 11 And not only so, but we also joy in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, by whom we have now received the atonement.

Ephesians 5:1 Be ye therefore followers of God, as dear children; 2 And walk in love, as Christ also hath loved us, and hath given himself for us an offering and a sacrifice to God for a sweetsmelling savour.

Ephesians 3:17 That Christ may dwell in your hearts by faith; that ye, being rooted and grounded in love, 18 May be able to comprehend with all saints what is the breadth, and length, and depth, and height; 19 And to know the love of Christ, which passeth knowledge, that ye might be filled with all the fulness of God.

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. 8 He that loveth not knoweth not God; for God is love. 9 In this was manifested the love of God toward us, because that God sent his only begotten Son into the world, that we might live through him. 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. 11 Beloved, if God so loved us, we ought also to love one another. 12 No man hath seen God at any time. If we love one another, God dwelleth in us, and his love is perfected in us. 13 Hereby know we that we dwell in him, and he in us, because he hath given us of his Spirit. 14 And we have seen and do testify that the Father sent the Son to be the Saviour of the world. 15 Whosoever shall confess that Jesus is the Son of God, God dwelleth in him, and he in God. 16 And we have known and believed the love that God hath to us. God is love; and he that dwelleth in love dwelleth in God, and God in him. 17 Herein is our love made perfect, that we may have boldness in the day of judgment: because as he is, so are we in this world. 18 There is no fear in love; but perfect love casteth out fear: because fear hath torment. He that feareth is not made perfect in love. 19 We love him, because he first loved us. 20 If a man say, I love God, and hateth his brother, he is a liar: for he that loveth not his brother whom he hath seen, how can he love God whom he hath not seen? 21 And this commandment have we from him, That he who loveth God love his brother also.

Believe the Gospel Only to be Saved. Please Ask 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:

Faith Without Works Is Dead = Salvation By Works?

Salvation Is By Grace Through Faith In Jesus Christ Only.

Ephesians 2:8 For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: 9 Not of works, lest any man should boast. 

We are Saved by the Grace of God Alone through Faith in Jesus Christ Alone.

Salvation
Salvation

Salvation Is NOT by WORKS. The Bible is Very, Very, Very Clear about this. Ephesians 2:9 Could Not be More Clear:

9 Not of works, lest any man should boast.

Do you see this??? NOT of Works. No One will be in Heaven Boasting about All of their Good Works.

Also read Romans Chapter 4 and you will clearly see that Salvation is Not by Works.

The Bible Clearly Shows Us Every Person Is Very Sinful.

Isaiah 64:6 But we are all as an unclean thing, and all our righteousnesses are as filthy rags; and we all do fade as a leaf; and our iniquities, like the wind, have taken us away.

Romans 7:18 For I know that in me (that is, in my flesh,) dwelleth no good thing: for to will is present with me; but how to perform that which is good I find not. 19 For the good that I would I do not: but the evil which I would not, that I do. 20 Now if I do that I would not, it is no more I that do it, but sin that dwelleth in me. 21 I find then a law, that, when I would do good, evil is present with me. 22 For I delight in the law of God after the inward man: 23 But I see another law in my members, warring against the law of my mind, and bringing me into captivity to the law of sin which is in my members. 24 O wretched man that I am! who shall deliver me from the body of this death? 25 I thank God through Jesus Christ our Lord. So then with the mind I myself serve the law of God; but with the flesh the law of sin.

Beware of False Religions, Works Based Salvation.

If you are familiar with what Baptist Works Based Churches teach (Others Denominations too. I have to call out Baptist Churches because people have the Wrong Impression on the Baptist Church. People think the Baptist Church is the Back Bone of Bible Believing, Soul Winning, Christianity. The Southern Baptist Church is praised for making up the Bible Belt in the USA. The Truth is it is hard to Find a Baptist Church that doesn’t Teach Works Salvation. They will Lie and Say, Repent of Sin is Not Works. Repent of Sin is Works. It Also is Not Found in the Bible.) you should know, if you think about it. That they constantly contradict themselves.

Be careful. Baptist Churches, other Denominations, will Lie: “This Church Believes in Salvation, by Grace through Faith in Jesus Christ Alone. Jesus is the Only Way to Heaven.”

Then in the next sentence they say: “If you have Not Truly Repented of All of your Sins then you will GO TO HELL.” “You have to have a Life Worthy of going to Heaven, Worthy of Jesus.” “If you haven’t completely Surrendered your Life to Jesus than you are Not Saved.” “Have you Given your life to Jesus? If you are Still Living your Old Life of Sin, then you haven’t Given your life to Jesus. You are Lost.”

There are dozens more catch phrases they endlessly repeat that are Unbiblical, Works Based Salvation, talking points.

They are Fruit Inspectors.

They will examine you, put you under a microscope. “What did you do for Jesus today?” “Did you tell anyone about Jesus?” “I don’t see any tracts in your pocket. Did you run out? Or don’t you pass out tracts?”

In IFB Baptist Churches especially there are many Church members who think they are the Holy Spirit of God. They ask Questions they have no right to ask. Like the Pharisees they are nothing but Hypocrites.

They are Fruit Inspectors because they teach a Works based Salvation. I don’t care how many correct Bible verses they quote. Because when it comes down to Salvation. They will tell you that you have to Repent of Sin to be Saved.

They might say, Turn From Sin, Forsake Sin, be willing to Turn from Sin… They have many False Works based Salvation things they will tell people when they are telling a person how to be Saved.

If the Bible Doesn’t Say it Don’t Believe it.

“OF SIN” they always Add to Repent. There is No place in the Bible that says to Repent of Sin. Repent of Sin is Not in the Bible.

Every verse in the Bible that says to Repent these Works based Churches will add “OF SIN” to them. I immediately say: “You added, OF SIN, to that verse.”

They will say many different things to defend themselves. “OK I get it. You just don’t understand that the definition of Repent is to Repent of Sin.” What a completely Ridiculous thing to say. The word you are defining is NEVER in the definition of that word.

When a Person, a Church, uses Scriptures to defend Repent of Sin, or any other Works based Salvation, they always Twist the Scriptures. They take verses out of context and say this is proof.

The Bible Does Not Teach We are Saved by Works.

2nd Peter 3:16 As also in all his epistles, speaking in them of these things; in which are some things hard to be understood, which they that are unlearned and unstable wrest, as they do also the other scriptures, unto their own destruction.

Jeremiah 23:36 And the burden of the Lord shall ye mention no more: for every man’s word shall be his burden; for ye have perverted the words of the living God, of the Lord of hosts our God.

If your Faith rests on anything other than the Word of God your Faith is False.

Your Faith is No Better than any other Religion Not based on the Bible.

Yes it is a Big Deal to Add, to Subtract Words from the Bible. People / Churches that do this are Not Christian. They are Cults pushing their own man made Doctrines.

The Bible Warns Us Not To Add Words To The Bible Or To Subtract Words From The Bible.

Deuteronomy 4:2 Ye shall not add unto the word which I command you, neither shall ye diminish ought from it, that ye may keep the commandments of the Lord your God which I command you.

Proverbs 30:5 Every word of God is pure: he is a shield unto them that put their trust in him. 6 Add thou not unto his words, lest he reprove thee, and thou be found a liar.

These False Churches and False Teachers, whoever they are a Liars. That is what the Bible says.

I call them Liars. They get immediately angry. They will say I am not acting like a Christian.

There Go To Reply: “Christians, Don’t call each other Liars. How can you call yourself a Christian?”

They are always on the Attack. So when you use strong Bible Replies to them, they say you are Not a Christian. You are the False Teacher… They will always get away from the conversation at hand because they cannot defend their False Doctrines. They will always shift the Conversation to You.

They try to get you to Call them a Christian. “Christians can have different opinions. Let’s Not Argue about Doctrine.” “Christians are Not supposed to Argue with each other.”

My Reply: “You are Not a Christian. You are Liar. You are a False Teacher.”

Many Works Based Salvation False Teachers run to James Chapter 2. They Love to Quote:

James 2:26 For as the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without works is dead also.

James 2:26 is NOT a Salvation verse.

The Book of James Does Not Teach Salvation.

When anyone is using single verses to try to prove what they are teaching that is always a Red Flag. A Christian Bible Teacher, Pastor will Not use Single verses to teach or defend a Doctrine.

When you read the Bible you must understand that although All Scripture was written for our Benefit. Every Bible verse doesn’t apply Doctrinally to Christians. You cannot take random verses and say that they All teach Bible Doctrine to Christians. A lot of the Bible was / is Bible Doctrine Only to the Jew, to the Nation of Israel.

2nd Timothy 3:16 All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness:

You need to understand first who is being spoken to when you read the Bible.

The Book of James was written to Saved people, to Christians. Proof:

James 1:19 Wherefore, my beloved brethren, let every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, slow to wrath:

James 2:1 My brethren, have not the faith of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Lord of glory, with respect of persons.

The word Brethren means Christians, Fellow Believers. The Fact that James Chapter 1 starts out “My Brethren” is 100% Proof James is talking to Christians. He is Not Preaching to the Lost. He is Not Instructing Christians on Evangelism, how to win the Lost.

James Chapter 2 is speaking to Christians on how they should live, about their behavior towards each other.

It teaches a person is Justified in the “SIGHT OF MAN” by the Works that they do. Do you understand. James is NOT Teaching that we can be Saved, Justified by our Works by God.

Men and Women will Look at other people and in their eyes they will Judge them by their Works. People who have a Great amount of Good Works will be seen as Good People, Justified people. This is NOT God’s View.

Eternal Salvation is Not Mentioned anywhere in James Chapter 2.

“Works” are Necessary Not For Physical Salvation. Works are Necessary for a Christian’s spiritual Life. A Christian should do Good Works because they are Saved. Not to Get Saved is the Message of James Chapter 2.

In fact, the “saving”, mentioned in James 2 is speaking of physical saving, not the spiritual Salvation of the Soul. Again Eternal Salvation, Saving from Hell is Not mentioned.

Explaining James Chapter 2.

Verses 1-13: Is about how we should treat others. We should treat everyone equally, the same. We should Not have more Respect for people based on their Wealth. We should Not look down on anyone. We should help and give to the poor Not look down on them.

James 2:14 What doth it profit, my brethren, though a man say he hath faith, and have not works? Can faith save him?

The Saving in this Verse is Not talking about Saving a Person from Hell. It is clearly (You have to read the rest of the Chapter to understand the context.) talking about Saving them from Poverty.

You can have Great Faith in Jesus and in the Bible. But just having Faith will not Feed, Cloth, provide for you. Provide what you, or anyone else, needs to survive, to live life. You have to do physical Work to have the money you need to survive to live life. To provide for others, to give to the poor.

15 If a brother or sister be naked, and destitute of daily food, 16 And one of you say unto them, Depart in peace, be ye warmed and filled; notwithstanding ye give them not those things which are needful to the body; what doth it profit?

The message here is to Provide for the Poor. Do Not have them depart without providing for them. Kind words do Not Feed and clothe them. There is NO PROFIT spiritually or in any other way for missing the opportunity to provide for the poor. The Bible teaches God will Bless you in this life and in Eternity for providing for the Poor, the Needy.

17 Even so faith, if it hath not works, is dead, being alone. 18 Yea, a man may say, Thou hast faith, and I have works: shew me thy faith without thy works, and I will shew thee my faith by my works.

These Verses are Still talking about there is NO PROFIT in Not providing for the poor. A Christian who has Faith in God will demonstrate their Faith by providing for the poor.

It takes Faith to Spend money. You are Saying God will provide for me if I don’t have savings. A Faithless person will accumulate wealth, save up for a rainy day. A person with Great Faith will Not live their life with a large bank account. They will spend their savings to help the poor. Giving to the Poor is Good Works that you will be rewarded for.

19 Thou believest that there is one God; thou doest well: the devils also believe, and tremble. 20 But wilt thou know, O vain man, that faith without works is dead?

More of the same. The Bible is very repetitious to drive home the point. James 2 is talking to Fake Proud Christians. You know the kind that are Pharisees. They are Hypocrites. They tell you how to live but they don’t do what the preach. They claim to have Great Faith but yet they do not provide for the Poor. They have large savings because they are afraid, lack the Faith Not to. They don’t show their Faith by doing Good Works.

21 Was not Abraham our father justified by works, when he had offered Isaac his son upon the altar? 22 Seest thou how faith wrought with his works, and by works was faith made perfect? 23 And the scripture was fulfilled which saith, Abraham believed God, and it was imputed unto him for righteousness: and he was called the Friend of God. 24 Ye see then how that by works a man is justified, and not by faith only.

Abraham was justified by man Not by God in this passage. James 2 is talking about how man justifies other people.

Abraham was seen by people who went with him. People discovered what Abraham did when he took Isaac up to the altar. They saw Abraham and Isaac come back. They saw his Faith. Man could see his Faith by Him taking His promised seed, which God had given him, up to the altar without bringing an animal sacrifice with him.

Romans 4:1 What shall we say then that Abraham our father, as pertaining to the flesh, hath found? 2 For if Abraham were justified by works, he hath whereof to glory; but not before God. 3 For what saith the scripture? Abraham believed God, and it was counted unto him for righteousness. 4 Now to him that worketh is the reward not reckoned of grace, but of debt.

Romans 4 clearly says Abraham was NOT JUSTIFIED BY WORKS.

25 Likewise also was not Rahab the harlot justified by works, when she had received the messengers, and had sent them out another way? 26 For as the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without works is dead also.

Rahab was justified by Man, by Joshua. He was preparing to destroy Jericho. He was told to kill every person inside the city. When Joshua learned of Rahab’s Faith which she showed by saving the lives of the spies, she was spared. Everyone in her home was spared. She was physically saved and justified by her works in front of the army of Israel.

Please do not Blindly Follow anyone. Study the Bible for yourself.

Saving Faith? What Does The Bible Say?

Faith. The Christian Faith.

Galatians 3:26 For ye are all the children of God by faith in Christ Jesus.

Salvation happens immediately when a Person puts their Faith in Jesus Only to Save them.

Bible Salvation:

Acts 16:29 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.

The Roman Jailer, Realized he was Lost. He Asked how to be Saved. The Answer was Only: “Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ.”

That is it. The end. “Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ.”

The Answer was Not: “You Must Have Enough Faith, Saving Faith.” “You Must Repent of Your Sins.” “You Must Turn From Your Sins.” “You Must Forsake Sin.” “You Must Be Baptized.” “You Must Surrender Your Life to Jesus.” “You Must Give your Life to Jesus.”

Beware of All the above Extra Biblical, Unbiblical things False Teachers teach as being Required for Salvation.

Nothing is Required for Salvation other than to have the Faith to Ask Jesus to Save You, because You Believed, the Gospel Only for your Salvation.

Yes the Roman Jailer Believed the Gospel. Paul and Silas were in Jail for Preaching the Gospel. “Believe.” Believe What? On the Lord Jesus Christ.

What was Jesus Message? Jesus Speaking:

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.

In John 3:14 Jesus is describing how Moses put a serpent on a long staff and lifted it up so that whoever looked at it would Live. It is an Illustration of how Jesus would be Lifted up on the Cross, Crucified, to give Eternal Life to Everyone who Believes on Him.

Jesus Salvation message was 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:

Again: Saving Faith?

You will Not find One passage in the Scripture that says this. Let’s Look at the Faith Jesus recognized, praised:

Luke 18:40 And Jesus stood, and commanded him to be brought unto him: and when he was come near, he asked him, 41 Saying, What wilt thou that I shall do unto thee? And he said, Lord, that I may receive my sight. 42 And Jesus said unto him, Receive thy sight: thy faith hath saved thee.

In this passage a man Believed that Jesus could heal him. He Asked Jesus to heal him. Just by Asking Jesus to Heal him was Faith enough for Jesus to Heal him.

42 …Receive thy sight: thy faith hath saved thee.

Thy Faith hath Saved thee. Over and over again in the Gospels people Asked to Be healed and Jesus healed them and he commented on their Faith. In every example their Faith equaled simply Believing that Jesus Could heal them.

Another Example:

Matthew 9:20 And, behold, a woman, which was diseased with an issue of blood twelve years, came behind him, and touched the hem of his garment: 21 For she said within herself, If I may but touch his garment, I shall be whole. 22 But Jesus turned him about, and when he saw her, he said, Daughter, be of good comfort; thy faith hath made thee whole. And the woman was made whole from that hour.

If I may but touch his garment… What type of Faith is this? It is Simply Believing in Jesus.

Let’s Just Get Real. There is Belief, And Unbelief. This is how the Bible defines Belief. It takes Faith to Believe. The Bible doesn’t teach there is a Bar, a Level of Faith that a person must have to be Saved. It is enough to Simply Ask. “Jesus Please Save me.”

Proof this is True:

Romans 10:13 For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.

More Proof:

The Thief on the Cross.

The Thief on the Cross is Proof that if anyone Asks Jesus to Save them than that is All the Faith Required to be Saved:

Luke 23:39 And one of the malefactors which were hanged railed on him, saying, If thou be Christ, save thyself and us. 40 But the other answering rebuked him, saying, Dost not thou fear God, seeing thou art in the same condemnation? 41 And we indeed justly; for we receive the due reward of our deeds: but this man hath done nothing amiss. 42 And he said unto Jesus, Lord, remember me when thou comest into thy kingdom. 43 And Jesus said unto him, Verily I say unto thee, To day shalt thou be with me in paradise.

The Thief on the Cross he realized he was Lost, a Lost Sinner. He knew he deserved his punishment. He knew he was Guilty. He obviously heard of or witnessed Jesus Ministry.

The Thief on the Cross knew Jesus was on the Cross dying for the Sins of the World.

The Thief on the Cross: 42 “And he said unto Jesus, Lord, remember me when thou comest into thy kingdom.”

That is it. The Thief on the Cross Asked Jesus to Save him and immediately Jesus Saved him.

Notice Jesus did Not Require ANYTHING from him. Jesus Did Not Say: “Sorry, you cannot Be Saved. You must be Baptized.” “Did you Repent of Your Sins?” “Did you Make me the Lord of Your Life.” “Did you Give your Life to Me?”

Salvation is having the Faith to Ask Jesus to Save you, Believing on Jesus plus Nothing else.

Review:

Does The Bible Teach: Saving Faith?

No. Saving Faith is a False Teaching by Lost Repent of Sin False Teachers.

These Heretics Do Everything they can to Make Sure as many people as Possible will go to Hell with them.

It is Not enough for them to Add Repent of Sin to the Bible, to Salvation, (Repent of Sin is Not in the Bible.) they have to Say:

“You might Not Be Saved. Do you have Saving Faith? When you Believed on Jesus, did you do it with Enough Faith?”

Their False Doctrines are Not Only for People who attend their Churches. They push it online. In Numerous publications to infect countless Christians. Yes I mean many Christians get Saved, and they are truly Saved, but then they never Study the Bible for themselves.

They buy Books, watch YouTube Videos, read articles online to get their Bible Teachings from. They are foolish enough to think if someone is a well known Pastor than what he teaches must be True.

The False Doctrine, “Saving Faith” has many Christians doubting their Salvation.

Jesus warned us about False Teachers, False Pastors:

John 10:11 I am the good shepherd: the good shepherd giveth his life for the sheep. 12 But he that is an hireling, and not the shepherd, whose own the sheep are not, seeth the wolf coming, and leaveth the sheep, and fleeth: and the wolf catcheth them, and scattereth the sheep. 13 The hireling fleeth, because he is an hireling, and careth not for the sheep.

This passage is talking about False Churches, False Pastors who are “Hirelings.”

The Bible definition of a Hireling: A labourer employed on hire for a limited time (Job 7:1; 14:6; Mark 1:20). His wages were paid as soon as his work was over “(Lev. 19:13). In the time of our Lord a day’s wage was a “penny” “(q.v.) i.e., a Roman denarius (Matt. 20:1-14).”

What Jesus is Saying is they are working to Make Money. They Do Not Care about anything but Money… The Bible Cross reference for John 10:11-13 is:

1st Peter 5:1 The elders which are among you I exhort, who am also an elder, and a witness of the sufferings of Christ, and also a partaker of the glory that shall be revealed: 2 Feed the flock of God which is among you, taking the oversight thereof, not by constraint, but willingly; not for filthy lucre, but of a ready mind; 3 Neither as being lords over God’s heritage, but being ensamples to the flock. 4 And when the chief Shepherd shall appear, ye shall receive a crown of glory that fadeth not away.

Not for Filthy Lucre, Money. Jesus is warning that there are Hirelings that Do Not Care about the Church. They are Lost False Teachers who are in the Ministry to Deceive People with their False Doctrines and to Make Money.

Another Cross Reference:

Titus 1:10 For there are many unruly and vain talkers and deceivers, specially they of the circumcision: 11 Whose mouths must be stopped, who subvert whole houses, teaching things which they ought not, for filthy lucre’s sake. 12 One of themselves, even a prophet of their own, said, The Cretians are alway liars, evil beasts, slow bellies. 13 This witness is true. Wherefore rebuke them sharply, that they may be sound in the faith; 14 Not giving heed to Jewish fables, and commandments of men, that turn from the truth. 15 Unto the pure all things are pure: but unto them that are defiled and unbelieving is nothing pure; but even their mind and conscience is defiled. 16 They profess that they know God; but in works they deny him, being abominable, and disobedient, and unto every good work reprobate.

A sure Sign of a False Pastor is their Wealth. The Christian Ministry is Not a Place to Make yourself Wealthy.

You cannot Trust anyone who is making huge Profits from their Ministry. Selling Books, Music, Videos for Profit is Not part of a Christian Ministry.

Finally:

John 20:24 But Thomas, one of the twelve, called Didymus, was not with them when Jesus came. 25 The other disciples therefore said unto him, We have seen the Lord. But he said unto them, Except I shall see in his hands the print of the nails, and put my finger into the print of the nails, and thrust my hand into his side, I will not believe. 26 And after eight days again his disciples were within, and Thomas with them: then came Jesus, the doors being shut, and stood in the midst, and said, Peace be unto you. 27 Then saith he to Thomas, reach hither thy finger, and behold my hands; and reach hither thy hand, and thrust it into my side: and be not faithless, but believing. 28 And Thomas answered and said unto him, My Lord and my God. 29 Jesus saith unto him, Thomas, because thou hast seen me, thou hast believed: blessed are they that have not seen, and yet have believed. 30 And many other signs truly did Jesus in the presence of his disciples, which are not written in this book: 31 But these are written, that ye might believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God; and that believing ye might have life through his name.

This passage is called Doubting Thomas. Thomas refused to Believe that Jesus had Rose from the Dead. He would Not take the word of the other Disciples. He had to see for himself.

So to Say Thomas Lacked Faith is an understatement.

Jesus sums up what Faith it takes for a person to be Saved. 29 Jesus saith unto him, Thomas, because thou hast seen me, thou hast believed: blessed are they that have not seen, and yet have believed.

Faith in Jesus, to Believe the Gospel without Witnessing it is All that is Required to be Saved.

Hebrews 11:1 Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.

The Faith for Salvation requires Believing on Jesus without Physically seeing him.

Hebrews 11:1 Tells us that Faith has Substance and Evidence. So the Christian Faith is Not a Blind Faith. The Bible is the Substance and the Evidence for the Christian Faith to exist.

Jesus Name Is Above Every Name

At The Name Of Jesus Every Knee Should Bow, Of Things In Heaven, And Things In Earth And Things Under The Earth

Philippines Chapter 2 Is Possibly the Most Powerful Chapter in the Entire Bible. Why? Because:

Philippines 2:9 Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name: 10 That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth; 11 And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.

Do You Understand Why? The Answer Is At The Name of Jesus Every Knee Will Bow, and Every Tongue Will Confess That Jesus Christ is Lord!!!

The Judgement Seat of Christ

Let’s Read the Entire Passage:

Philippines 2:1 If there be therefore any consolation in Christ, if any comfort of love, if any fellowship of the Spirit, if any bowels and mercies,

2 Fulfil ye my joy, that ye be likeminded, having the same love, being of one accord, of one mind.

3 Let nothing be done through strife or vainglory; but in lowliness of mind let each esteem other better than themselves.

4 Look not every man on his own things, but every man also on the things of others.

5 Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus:

6 Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God:

7 But made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men:

8 And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross.

9 Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name:

10 That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth;

11 And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.

This Passages Makes It Clear That Jesus Is God. It Gives Us Part of the Gospel: Jesus Humbled Himself. (He God, Became a human. That is too Difficult a Concept for the human brain to Handle.) Jesus was Born to Die on the Cross to Pay the Penalty for the All of the Sins of the World.

Jesus Blood Atonement, The Gospel of our Salvation, His Sacrifice on the Cross, is the Reason Why Everyone Will:

Every Knee Will Bow, and Every Tongue Will Confess That Jesus Christ is Lord!!!

This is Powerful!!!

Jesus Name

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.

Understand This, verse 18 Fits with Philippines 2:9-10.

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.”

Everyone who has Died Rejecting Jesus Free Gift Of Salvation Will On Their Knees Say: JESUS IS LORD.

JESUS IS LORD:

JESUS IS LORD Is completely Twisted and Misused by Lost Cults.

Lordship Salvation Cults Love to use the Expression: JESUS IS LORD missing completely this is the Cry that Will Happen Right Before the Lost are Thrown into the Lake of Fire.

Get This FACT STRAIGHT JESUS IS LORD!!! That is a Present Statement, A FACT. You Do NOT. You CANNOT Make Jesus YOUR LORD!!! He Already Is.

Salvation Is: Believing the Gospel Only For Salvation. It is to ACCEPT Jesus Free Gift of Salvation.

A Person Goes To Hell For Rejecting Jesus Free Gift of Salvation. No One Goes To Hell For Sin. Jesus Paid the Penalty For ALL The Sins of the World.

It is Simple. Accept Jesus Go To Heaven. Reject Jesus Go to the Lake of Fire Shouting Jesus Is Lord.

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:

Salvation the Gospel IS NOT Making Jesus The Lord of Your Life.

Repent of Sin, Turn From Sin, Surrendering Your Life To Christ, Making Jesus the Lord of Your Life Is Not The Gospel. It IS NOT how a Person is Saved!!!

Which Name Is Above All Other Names:

Malachi 1:11 For from the rising of the sun even unto the going down of the same my name shall be great among the Gentiles; and in every place incense shall be offered unto my name, and a pure offering: for my name shall be great among the heathen, saith the Lord of hosts.

Whose name do we call out to when we want to be saved? Jesus Name!  

In whose name are we sent?  In whose name do we Pray, Preach, Teach? Jesus Name!

IT IS NOT!!! Jeshua, Yeshua, Yeshuah, Yehshua, Yehshuah, YESHUA, YESHUAH, YEHSHUA, YEHSHUAH, Yeshouah,  Y’shua, Y’shuah, Jeshu, Yeshu, Yehoshua, Yehoshuah, YHVHShua, YHVHShuah, Yhvhshua, Yhwhshua, YHWHShua, YHWHShuah, Yhvhshuah, Yhwhshuah, Yahvehshua, Yahwehshua, Yahvehshuah, Yahwehshuah, Jahshua, Jahshuah, Jashua, Jashuah, Jahoshua, Jahoshuah, Jehoshua, Jehoshuah, Yashua, Yashuah, Yahshua, Yahshuah, YAHSHUA, YAHSHUAH, YASHUA, YASHUAH, Yahushua, Yahushuah, Yahoshua, Yahoshuah, Yaohushua, YAOHUSHUA, Yaohushuah,  Iahoshua, Iahoshuah, Iahushua, or Iahushuah! Or any Other Name!!!

Matt. 28:16 Then the eleven disciples went away into Galilee, into a mountain where Jesus had appointed them.

17 And when they saw him, they worshipped him: but some doubted.

18 And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth.

19 Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost:

20 Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world. Amen.

What Name have Christian Believers been Commanded to Teach and Baptize in?  The same Person whom all Power in Heaven and Earth was given to. JESUS! 

In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost, is the name of Jesus which is Christ, God’s Only begotten Son who came down from Heaven and became flesh.

In the Gospels and in the Book of Acts (Where the words of Jesus were being demonstrated by the Apostles and the early church.) and you will see every Water Baptism (After people had been Saved by Believing on Jesus.) of was done in the name of Jesus. As were All the Preaching, Teaching, Healings and Miracles.

Deuteronomy 28:10 “And all people of the earth shall see that thou art called by the name of the Lord; and they shall be afraid of thee.”

Jesus!!! Is A Swear Word. People Curse Jesus Name Continuously. Hit their finger with a Hammer… Jesus!!! is their cry.

Jesus name is the most Attacked name in Society in the World.  Why is it the most Degraded and Spat upon name around the world? Uttered as a Malignant Swear word by Millions, over and over again, every single day?  Why don’t you hear the name of another god being continually down graded, Cursed?  Why is not the name Yahweh being Cursed, consciously or unconsciously, by the worlds masses?

Because Jesus’ name is the most Precious name in Heaven and Earth, and should be Treasured above all names, as the only name behind the Person who rendered Satan powerless and Broke the chains of Sin and Death. 

Jesus is the only name where Eternal Life and Eternal Death Hang in the balance. Deny Jesus = Eternal Death Damnation. Accept Jesus = Eternal Life. Jesus is the only name we can be Saved with.

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.

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.

THERE ARE NO SUCH NAMES: YAHSHUA / Yahua / Yeshua

These names didn’t exist in biblical times and they have not existed as a genuine Hebrew name in history — until people who really didn’t understand Hebrew made them up, thinking that it somehow restored the “Yah” element (from “Yahweh”) into the Savior’s name.

While Joshua was pronounced ye-ho-shu-ah — God’s name was NEVER pronounced Yahua or the like.

A lot of people, including some Messianic Jews (Jews who believe Jesus is the Messiah), will call Jesus by a different name: Yeshua (Hebrew יֵשׁוּעַ). They say that Yeshua is the Jewish name that Jesus would have been called by those who knew him.  Some messianic and other groups say that Yeshua is Jesus’ real name and that the name “Jesus” is wrong.  Others say it is okay to use either one.  But then again, there are those who say that the word “Jesus” is pagan in origin and should not be used at all.  And if that weren’t enough, some say that “Jesus” is derived from “Zeus” and really means “hail Zeus.”  With all these possibilities is there a real answer to what was the Messiah’s real name?  Yes, there is.  It is found in the New Testament.

The New Testament was written in Greek.  If there were any original documents of the New Testament written in Hebrew, we don’t have them.  At best, some theorize that there might have been a gospel or two written in Hebrew.  If that is the case, there is no way to know.  The fact is we don’t have any Hebrew manuscripts.  We only have Greek ones from that period of time. 

Since what we do have is the Greek Manuscripts, it is from them that we need to find out what the Apostles wrote about Jesus.  In other words, we need to make a case out of what we do have–not what we don’t have.

Doing a computer search in the Greek New Testament, the word “Jesus” occurs over 900 times.  Following is a chart that lays this out.

What does the Greek actually say?

The Greek word for Jesus is Iησοῦς.  It is pronounced as “eeaysoos.”  When “eeaysoos” was transliterated into the English long ago, it became Jesus–the term we use in English today.

Some say that if we don’t pronounce Jesus’ name properly (either as Yeshua and or Eeaysoos), then we are in sin and serving a false god; but that accusation cannot be made from scripture.  It is not the pronunciation of a word that makes us Christian or not.  It is receiving the Messiah, God in flesh, by faith that makes us a Christian.  Likewise, must we say “theos” when saying “God” since that is how the word is pronounced in Greek?  Or what about when we call Jesus the “Savior” as in Phil. 3:20, must we pronounce the word as it is in Greek (sotare), or is it okay to use the English word “savior?”

The entire New Testament was written in Greek, and the word Jesus is the word that is used.  It is not the Hebrew יֵשׁוּעַ which is Yeshua.  So, it is simple.  Jesus is properly called Jesus.

  • “And she will bear a Son; and you shall call His name Jesus, for it is He who will save His people from their sins,” (Matt. 1:21).

  • “The beginning of the gospel of Jesus Christ, the Son of God,” (Mark 1:1).

  • “let it be known to all of you, and to all the people of Israel, that by the name of Jesus Christ the Nazarene, whom you crucified, whom God raised from the dead–by this name this man stands here before you in good health. 11 “He is the stone which was rejected by you, the builders, but which became the very cornerstone. 12 “And there is salvation in no one else; for there is no other name under heaven that has been given among men, by which we must be saved,” (Acts 4:10-12).

  • “Paul, a bond-servant of Christ Jesus, called as an apostle, set apart for the gospel of God,” (Rom. 1:1).

  • “But we do see Him who was made for a little while lower than the angels, namely, Jesus, because of the suffering of death crowned with glory and honor, so that by the grace of God He might taste death for everyone,” (Heb. 2:9).

  • “The Revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave Him to show to His bond-servants, the things which must shortly take place; and He sent and communicated it by His angel to His bond-servant John,” (Rev. 1:1).

As you can see, the New Testament uses “Jesus” as the name and not a Hebrew name.  For people to say that Jesus’ real name is Yashua or Yahusha or Yahushua, etc., is just a statement of pushing an agenda and not believing the New Testament text. 

False Prophets (The Religious Leaders) Forgot God’s Name:

Jeremiah 23:26 How long shall this be in the heart of the prophets that prophesy lies? yea, they are prophets of the deceit of their own heart;

27 Which think to cause my people to forget my name by their dreams which they tell every man to his neighbour, as their fathers have forgotten my name for Baal.

28 The prophet that hath a dream, let him tell a dream; and he that hath my word, let him speak my word faithfully. What is the chaff to the wheat? saith the Lord. 29 Is not my word like as a fire? saith the Lord; and like a hammer that breaketh the rock in pieces?

30 Therefore, behold, I am against the prophets, saith the Lord, that steal my words every one from his neighbour.

31 Behold, I am against the prophets, saith the Lord, that use their tongues, and say, He saith.

32 Behold, I am against them that prophesy false dreams, saith the Lord, and do tell them, and cause my people to err by their lies, and by their lightness; yet I sent them not, nor commanded them: therefore they shall not profit this people at all, saith the Lord.

Because God has given us His Book the Bible, with every scripture given by Divine inspiration, we only need to go to the Bible to find the Name Jesus which is above every other name, the only name by which people can be Saved. 

Beware of Counterfeit Christianity:

Jude 1:4 “For there are certain men crept in unawares, who were before of old ordained to this condemnation, ungodly men, turning the grace of our God into lasciviousness, and denying the only Lord God, and our Lord Jesus Christ.”

Jesus Died For All Sin.

Hebrews 10:12

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

Jesus is the ONE AND ONLY SACRIFICE FOR ALL SINS FOREVER.

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.

The Bible makes it Crystal Clear that Jesus Died for ALL SIN. ADDING ANYTHING TO JESUS BLOOD ATONEMENT IS WORKS.

Almost ALL CHURCHES Deny this Fact. People who Believe and Teach this are Falsely called Universal Salvationist.

Universal Salvation means that No One Goes to Hell.

Yes, Jesus Died For All Sin.

No, Everyone Does Not Go to Heaven.

To Be Saved A Person Has to ACCEPT Jesus FREE GIFT of Salvation.

NO ONE GOES TO HELL FOR SIN!!!

You will not Find ONE VERSE That Says a Person Goes to Hell / the Lake of Fire Because of their Sin.

PEOPLE GO TO HELL FOR REJECTING JESUS.

This is what the Bible Says:

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.

Salvation Happens as Soon as A Person BELIEVES IN JESUS. This Belief is in 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:

John 3:

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

Jesus did not come into the World to Send people to Hell. Jesus came into the World to Die For ALL SIN, so the world could 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.”

Everyone that has Believed the Gospel is Saved and will never be Condemned. Right here is Eternal Salvation. Note Salvation is not Salvation if it can be Taken Away, Lost in any way.

EVERYONE THAT HAS NOT BELIEVED ON JESUS, IS RIGHT NOW, CONDEMNED. YES THIS IS WHAT THE BIBLE TEACHES.

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.”

People do not Go to Hell for their Sins. They Go to Hell for Rejecting Jesus.

People refuse to Accept Jesus because they LOVE THEIR SIN. LOVE OF SIN KEEPS PEOPLE FROM BEING SAVED.

I have talked with countless people who have told me something like this: “I will probably get Saved when I am older. Right now I am young. I am single. I want to have all the FUN (SEX, GETTING DRUNK, DOING DRUGS, ALL MANNER OF EVIL…) I can possibly have. I do not want to be a hypocrite. People HATE CHRISTIANS BECAUSE THEY ARE ALL HYPOCRITES. If I get Saved I will not be a Hypocrite.”

“…Men Loved DARKNESS RATHER THAN LIGHT, BECAUSE THEIR DEEDS WERE EVIL.” People chose their SINS OVER JESUS.”

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

THE LOST HATE JESUS. YES THE LOST, THE UNSAVED HATE JESUS. THEY HATE HAVING THEIR SINS SEEN AND REPROVED.

When I talk with people about Jesus most immediately get MAD: “How DARE YOU Talk to me about JESUS!!! There is a separation between the Church and the State. Leave Jesus in the Church. If I wanted to hear about JESUS I would go to Church.!!!!” “JESUS FREAK SHUT UP!!! I WILL SHUT YOU UP IF YOU KEEP TALKING TO ME ABOUT JESUS!!!”

This instant HATE, ANGER, VIOLENCE, is unnatural. It is SATANIC. I can see the EVIL in their faces in their eyes.

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

What is doing Truth? Doing Truth is when a Christian lives by the Word of God. The TRUTH IS THE WORD OF GOD. Christians LOVE JESUS, they are not ashamed of their deeds because they are living according to God’s Word.

Salvation is a Free Gift offered to Everyone.

The Bible does not say to Repent of Sin. Repent of Sin is not in the Bible. Repent of Sin means to go to Heaven you have to Ask Forgiveness of every Sin you have ever committed. This is not possible and it is Working your Way to Heaven. Because Repent of Sin also means that to be Saved you have to agree Before you can Be Saved that you will not Sin. Part of their False Plan of Salvation: “Be willing to Turn from Sin.” Turning from Sin = To Not Sin.

They say willful sin is what they are talking about… As if they do not willfully have Sexual Fantasies. They willfully consume Alcohol, Smoke, Drink, Lie,

are full of Pride, are Self-Righteous, are easily Angered.

1st John 1:10

“If we say that we have not sinned, we make him a liar, and his word is not in us.”

They are Lying about NOT Sinning.

Yes this is What people who Believe in Repent of Sin teach. Just look at any Chick Tract.

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;”

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.”

In John Chapter 3 Jesus Tells us how to Be SAVED. Believe in him. Believe the Gospel. Jesus does not Say to do anything else. He does not Say to Repent of Sin, to Forsake Sin, to Turn From Sin to be Saved. He does not say you have to be Baptized to Be Saved.

To Be Saved Believe the Gospel Only. Believe Jesus Died, was Buried, and he Rose from the Dead to pay for all of your Sins. Ask Jesus to Save You. To ADD ANYTHING ELSE TO THIS IS WORKS AND IS NOT SALVATION.

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 to be Saved. If you have not please Ask Jesus to Save you right now. Trust in Jesus only to Save you. Believe the Gospel Only to be Saved.

Jesus Said, I Never Knew You: Depart from me…

The 7 Words No One Wants To Hear: I Never Knew You: Depart From Me…

Matthew Chapter 7 is twisted by False Teachers to Teach a Works based Salvation.

Matthew 7:23 “And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.”

Why did Jesus not know them? Because they were not Saved. They never Asked Jesus to Save them. They Rejected Jesus Free Gift of Salvation. They were trusting in their own Self-Righteousness to get them into Heaven.

John Chapter 10 explains their Rejection perfectly.

John 10:22 And it was at Jerusalem the feast of the dedication, and it was winter.

23 And Jesus walked in the temple in Solomon’s porch.

24 Then came the Jews round about him, and said unto him, How long dost thou make us to doubt? If thou be the Christ, tell us plainly.

Jesus did plainly say that he was the promised: Christ, the Messiah. He was daily reading in the Temple proclaiming he was the Messiah foretold in the scriptures. Jesus Preached his coming Kingdom everywhere he went. Jesus Declared himself God and King.

John Chapter 5 is a perfect example.

John 5:17 But Jesus answered them, My Father worketh hitherto, and I work.

18 Therefore the Jews sought the more to kill him, because he not only had broken the sabbath, but said also that God was his Father, making himself equal with God.

Jesus was Crucified because he Claimed to be the Christ, the Messiah foretold in the Scriptures. Verse 18 is clear the Jews sought to Kill Jesus because he said he was God.

Jesus Daily made it clear that he was God in the Flesh that came to Save the World from their Sins.

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

Right here in verse 14 Jesus is Telling the People that he would be Crucified. Moses put a serpent on a wooden stick and lifted it high so everyone could see. The people who looked upon it were Saved.

Numbers 21:7 Therefore the people came to Moses, and said, We have sinned, for we have spoken against the Lord, and against thee; pray unto the Lord, that he take away the serpents from us. And Moses prayed for the people.

8 And the Lord said unto Moses, Make thee a fiery serpent, and set it upon a pole: and it shall come to pass, that every one that is bitten, when he looketh upon it, shall live.

9 And Moses made a serpent of brass, and put it upon a pole, and it came to pass, that if a serpent had bitten any man, when he beheld the serpent of brass, he lived.

John 3:15 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.

John 3:14-18 are Jesus own words describing how he came to Save the World. Everyone who Believes in Jesus will be immediately Saved.

The Jews in Chapter 10 are the same Jews that are here in Chapter 5. Like all Unbelievers / False Teachers, from the past and from today they instantly Rejected the Truth when it was told to them. They endlessly asked Jesus to keep repeating himself. They constantly badgered Jesus with the same questions.

All throughout the Gospels. These Unbelievers and the False Religious Leaders (the Sadducees and the Pharisees) continuously demanded Jesus to submit to their Authority. They Rejected Jesus as the Messiah. Today is no different. “Christian” Churches Reject Jesus as The Savior. They add Works to the Gospel. “You must Repent of your Sins to be Saved.” “You have to be Baptized to be Saved.” “You have to speak in tongues to prove you are Saved.” And on and on and on with False Conditions to Salvation…

John 5:19 Then answered Jesus and said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, The Son can do nothing of himself, but what he seeth the Father do: for what things soever he doeth, these also doeth the Son likewise.

20 For the Father loveth the Son, and sheweth him all things that himself doeth: and he will shew him greater works than these, that ye may marvel. 21 For as the Father raiseth up the dead, and quickeneth them; even so the Son quickeneth whom he will.

Verses 19-21 Explain Jesus relationship with God the Father. Jesus is God the Son, the second member of the Holy Trinity. God is one God in 3 Person’s. We see that Jesus is equal to God the Father. Whatever God the Father does, Jesus can do too. It is important to know that God knows we can not comprehend this.

1st Timothy 3:16 “And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness: God was manifest in the flesh, justified in the Spirit, seen of angels, preached unto the Gentiles, believed on in the world, received up into glory.”

Jesus being God in the flesh is a great mystery. Our human minds can not process this. This is why Christianity is called the Christian Faith. It takes Faith to Believe this, to Believe the Bible. The Truth of the Bible is proven through Historical Facts. Jesus life, Crucifixion, and resurrection are all Historical facts.

John 5:22 For the Father judgeth no man, but hath committed all judgment unto the Son:

23 That all men should honour the Son, even as they honour the Father. He that honoureth not the Son honoureth not the Father which hath sent him.

Verses 22, 23 Jesus is saying he is God. The Jews present understood this.

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.

Verse 24 Is a Salvation, Eternal Life verse. The Bible teaches a person is Saved by Believing Jesus Words given to us in the Bible. What words in particular? In particular Believe on me, Believe in me. Jesus says this over and over and over again. Jesus’s Apostles his Disciples say this too. Salvation is Belief in Jesus Only to Save You. To Believe the Gospel to Save You.

John Chapter 3 teaches we are Saved by Believing in Jesus. Believing that Jesus came to Save the world. Jesus declared himself to be the promised Messiah. The Old Testament teaches that the Messiah would die for the Sins of the World. Just Read Isaiah 53.

Jesus opened to Isaiah 53 in the Synagogue he said these Scriptures refer to me. Jesus said that he came to fulfill these Scriptures promises. This is exactly why the Jewish Leaders sought to Kill him because Jesus claimed to be the Promised Messiah that would Die for the Sins of the World. They Rejected Jesus and went about working their way to Heaven. The Church Leaders of today are doing the same thing.

25 Jesus answered them, I told you, and ye believed not: the works that I do in my Father’s name, they bear witness of me.

Jesus’s miracles: feeding thousands of people, healing the sick, raising the Dead were done to Prove that he is God, the Promised Messiah.

26 But ye believe not, because ye are not of my sheep, as I said unto you.

27 My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me:

28 And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand.

29 My Father, which gave them me, is greater than all; and no man is able to pluck them out of my Father’s hand.

30 I and my Father are one.

Verses 26-30 Jesus is calling them out for not Believing in him. They are not his Sheep because they have not Believed in him. Jesus is again explaining that he is God who gives Eternal Life, which no one can take away from those who have Believed in him.

31 Then the Jews took up stones again to stone him.

32 Jesus answered them, Many good works have I shewed you from my Father; for which of those works do ye stone me?

33 The Jews answered him, saying, For a good work we stone thee not; but for blasphemy; and because that thou, being a man, makest thyself God.

34 Jesus answered them, Is it not written in your law, I said, Ye are gods?

35 If he called them gods, unto whom the word of God came, and the scripture cannot be broken;

36 Say ye of him, whom the Father hath sanctified, and sent into the world, Thou blasphemest; because I said, I am the Son of God?

37 If I do not the works of my Father, believe me not.

38 But if I do, though ye believe not me, believe the works: that ye may know, and believe, that the Father is in me, and I in him.

39 Therefore they sought again to take him: but he escaped out of their hand,

Verses 31-39 The Jews Intended to Stone Jesus to Death. Because he in their words is committing Blasphemy. By calling himself God / the Son of God. In verse 38 even though they want to Murder him, Jesus is pleading with them. To Believe in him because of all of the Miracles he has done. Jesus has Incredible Mercy.

Matthew Chapter 7.

Matthew 7:13 Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat:

14 Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it.

Take the Narrow Gate.
Take the Narrow Gate

People (People who claim to be Christians) do not understand verses 13 and 14. There are numerous illustrations of the Straight Narrow Path to Heaven, and the Wide Broad Path to Hell. None of these illustrations come close to getting it right. The typical illustration is the Broad Path (The way to Hell) being 3 times wider than the Narrow Path leading to Heaven. No that is not close to right. (The illustration I found above is just equal paths. That illustration is just showing that you have to make a Choice to either Accept Jesus and Go to Heaven or to Reject Jesus and Go to Hell. It shows 1 person on the Narrow Path and a lot of people on the Wide Path which is accurate.)

The Narrow Path in a more realistic Biblical illustration would be a Narrow River 3 feet wide just a stream. While the Broad Path would be the Pacific Ocean. Yes this is what Jesus is saying. Vs. 14 “…and few there be that find it.”

Few is an incredibly small number. Jesus wants Everyone to know that of the Billions of people that are Born from the Beginning of time to the End of time there will be Few people that get Saved. My Belief is that A Million or Two Million people of everyone who has ever been born will be Saved. Everyone Else Will Go to Hell / The Lake of Fire because they Rejected Jesus Free Gift of Salvation.

Most Pastors / Bible Teachers (Almost all of these people are Lost) Act like the Numbers are: (Let’s say that 10 Billion is the total number of people who will have ever lived.) out of 10 Billion People 7 Billion will go to Hell / the Lake of Fire. And 3 Billion will go to Heaven. That is not what Few means. That is still a huge number of Saved people.

Another example would be: A mother tells her son that he can open the new bag of Candy. (The Bag is marked, 500 pieces of candy.) You can have a few pieces, do not take more than 3. That is what a Few means. 3 out of 500 is a Few. As the number grows the ratio stays small like a Million or Two Million out of 10 Billion. In this case the number of a Million or Two million would be Few. Even though a Million taken by itself is a Large Number.

15 Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves.

16 Ye shall know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles?

17 Even so every good tree bringeth forth good fruit; but a corrupt tree bringeth forth evil fruit.

18 A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit.

19 Every tree that bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire.

20 Wherefore by their fruits ye shall know them.

Verses 15-20 are twisted to teach Works Salvation. The entire context is in verse 15: “Beware of False Prophets…” everything in verses 15-20 is talking about False Prophets not anyone else.

These False Teachers are Corrupt. Jesus contrasts them with a Good Tree, which is a God called Preacher / Pastor / Teacher. These Good Ministers of God will Bring forth Good Fruit, Good Works. But the False Teachers can not produce anything but Bad Fruit, Bad Works, because they are not Saved.

Verses 15-20 does not teach that people have to Do Good Works to go to Heaven. That a Person can do enough Good Works to Earn their way to Heaven. These verses are not talking about personal Salvation, about how a person is Saved. Salvation is not even mentioned. Today’s False Teachers put Salvation in these verses when Salvation is never the topic. False Teachers is the topic.

21 Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven.

Again False Teachers Twist this verse to Teach Works Salvation. They say see: “…but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven.” So you have to Work your way to Heaven. You must have enough Good Works to Go to Heaven.

This passage does not say anything about doing Good Works. It says doeth the will of my Father. Here is the Will of God the Father:

John 6:39 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.

1st Timothy 2:3 For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Saviour;

4 Who will have all men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth.

Simply put God’s Will is that Everyone would be Saved, to have Eternal Life.

Matthew 7:22 Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works?

Verse 22 completely refutes False Teachers that Teach you have to Work your way to Heaven. (Repent of Sin, be Baptized, etc.) Here they are Telling Jesus they should go to Heaven because of all of their Wonderful Works. Because of Everything Good they Did for him. You can do Nothing to Work you Way to Heaven. Salvation is 100% the Work of Jesus Alone.

Romans 4:3 For what saith the scripture? Abraham believed God, and it was counted unto him for righteousness.

4 Now to him that worketh is the reward not reckoned of grace, but of debt.

5 But to him that worketh not, but believeth on him that justifieth the ungodly, his faith is counted for righteousness.

23 And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.

Jesus reply: I NEVER KNEW YOU: DEPART FROM ME…

Jesus clearly was not impressed with their Self-Righteous Good Works. In fact Jesus called their Good Works Iniquity. It is Vile to Say to Jesus, Your Blood Atonement is not Good Enough to get me into Heaven. I will (I have to do) do Good Works to add to your Sacrifice. Jesus Your Blood Atonement is Not Good Enough…

That is the Biggest Insult you could say / do to Jesus. This is Rejecting Jesus as your Savior.

Matthew 7:24 Therefore whosoever heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them, I will liken him unto a wise man, which built his house upon a rock:

25 And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell not: for it was founded upon a rock.

26 And every one that heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them not, shall be likened unto a foolish man, which built his house upon the sand:

27 And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell: and great was the fall of it.

28 And it came to pass, when Jesus had ended these sayings, the people were astonished at his doctrine:

29 For he taught them as one having authority, and not as the scribes.

Verses 24-29 Are Jesus explaining that People who Trust in Him Only for Salvation are Wise. Everyone who Rejects Jesus is Foolish.

We are Saved by Believing the Gospel Only for our Salvation. 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:

Is The Sinner’s Prayer Biblical?

The Sinner’s Prayer is Biblical. Beware of the Repent of Sin Sinner’s Prayer.

Type The Sinner’s Prayer in a search engine like Google or Yahoo. You will Find Satan’s UnBiblical Sinner’s Prayer. Almost ALL “Christian” Tracts and Publications Publish Satan’s False Sinner’s Prayer. The Sinner’s Prayer is Biblical.

Do not Blindly Believe what you see online, in print. Always do your own research. I will show you that The Sinner’s Prayer is Biblical. Is in the Bible.

What is a Prayer? A Prayer is simply talking with Jesus / God. Jesus told people how to be Saved. He said Ask me. Believe in me.

The Woman at the Well.

John 4:10 Jesus answered and said unto her, If thou knewest the gift of God, and who it is that saith to thee, Give me to drink; thou wouldest have asked of him, and he would have given thee living water.

11 The woman saith unto him, Sir, thou hast nothing to draw with, and the well is deep: from whence then hast thou that living water?

12 Art thou greater than our father Jacob, which gave us the well, and drank thereof himself, and his children, and his cattle?

13 Jesus answered and said unto her, Whosoever drinketh of this water shall thirst again:

14 But whosoever drinketh of the water that I shall give him shall never thirst; but the water that I shall give him shall be in him a well of water springing up into everlasting life.
15 The woman saith unto him, Sir, give me this water, that I thirst not, neither come hither to draw.

Jesus told the Samaritan Woman. (The woman at the well.) If she would have Asked of him. He would have given her Living Water. Eternal Life. She did Ask Jesus. And Jesus Saved her.

This is a Sinner’s Prayer. Today the only way to talk with Jesus is through Prayer. Jesus offered Salvation and the Samaritan Woman Asked Jesus to Save her. Salvation is that Simple. What happened? She Believed in Jesus. She Believed Jesus Words. Ask Jesus to Save You and he will.

Luke 23 A Sinner’s Prayer.

Luke 23:39 And one of the malefactors which were hanged railed on him, saying, If thou be Christ, save thyself and us.
40 But the other answering rebuked him, saying, Dost not thou fear God, seeing thou art in the same condemnation?
41 And we indeed justly; for we receive the due reward of our deeds: but this man hath done nothing amiss.
42 And he said unto Jesus, Lord, remember me when thou comest into thy kingdom.
43 And Jesus said unto him, Verily I say unto thee, To day shalt thou be with me in paradise.

The Thief on the Cross. Asked Jesus to Save him. And Jesus did.

Today the only way to talk with Jesus is in Prayer. Pray and Ask Jesus to Save you. This is The Sinner’s Prayer.

Why do people, Churches say a Sinners Prayer will not Save you? Why do they say it is not in the Bible? In the Bible Jesus tells people to Ask for Salvation. We see people Asking to be Saved. Why do they deny the Sinner’s Prayer? The Answer is they are Lost. They are working for Satan.

It is a Lie. It is EVIL. When Religious People. Pastors. Evangelists. Say that you will Go to Hell. If you Ask Jesus to Save You. If you say The Sinner’s Prayer. Yes, they say this exactly. They claim Asking Jesus to Save you is a Work. They call Asking Jesus to Save you Works Salvation.

False Teacher’s Falsely Accuse people. Who Ask Jesus to Save them in a Sinner’s Prayer. Of Believing a False Gospel.

They say a Person cannot be saved by Asking Jesus to Save them. “Saying The Sinner’s Prayer. Will do nothing for a person.” “It will make Lost people think they are Saved.”

Many say this is “Easy Believism.” Easy Believism is a term made up by lordship Salvationist. They deny the Bible. And say You have to Repent of Sin. Forsake Sin. Make Jesus the Lord of your Life. Turn From Sin. Give Your Life to Jesus to be Saved. They have a lot of terms they make up that are not in the Bible.

What is 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:

We are Saved by believing the Gospel.

Verse 1 You Receive. How do you Receive something? You Accept it. Like when the mail carrier Gives You a Package. Just seeing the package does nothing. You have not Received the Package until you have Accepted it. Taken it. The people in Corinth. They heard the Gospel preached unto them. And they Accepted it. They received it. Which means they Believed it.

Look at verse 2. “By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain. What Paul Preached is recorded in Romans.

Paul wrote 1st Corinthians and Romans.

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.

Paul said which WE Preach. WE? Yes, Jesus, All of Jesus Disciples.

Dispensationalist, IFB Baptists, teach many different Gospels. They say that Paul Preached His own Gospel. Jesus Had his own Gospel. Peter Had Another Different Gospel. Right there is 3 different Gospels.

The Bible has ONLY ONE TRUE GOSPEL. Jesus and Paul warned us of False Gospel’s.

Galatians 1:3 Grace be to you and peace from God the Father, and from our Lord Jesus Christ,

4 Who gave himself for our sins, that he might deliver us from this present evil world, according to the will of God and our Father:

5 To whom be glory for ever and ever. Amen.

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.

There is only One True Gospel.

As soon as your Church. “Christians.” Start talking to you about other Gospel’s. Saying that the Bible has many different Plans of Salvation. You need to RUN. RUN from them. Do not go back to that Church.

Dr. Peter S. Ruckman admits in his Books. And in Sermons. That in the Book of Acts there were at least 7 different Gospels Preached. That is 7 different ways to be Saved. He is not alone in this False Teaching. This is what Dispensationalist Teach.

In 1st Corinthians and in Romans Paul explains how a person is Saved.

You, cannot say Paul is lying in one place. And telling the Truth in another place. Well, people say exactly that. Some deny both 1st Corinthians 15:1-4 and Romans Chapter 10. They also Deny the whole book of John.

This sounds incredible but it is the Truth. These False Teachers deny these Scriptures. Because the Word Repent is not used. Only verses that include the word Repent, are Salvation verses according to them. 

They Falsely define Repentance / Repent. They define Repent as, Repent of Sin. Repent of Sin is not in the Bible. Repentance = Belief in Jesus. Because Repentance means to Change your mind from unbelief in Jesus to Belief in Jesus.

False Teachers

Satan does not want people to Pray and Ask Jesus to Save them.

If you do not Ask Jesus to Save you than YOU ARE NOT SAVED.

It is clear that when you Believe on Jesus you are in fact Praying to Jesus. You are Saying The Sinner’s Prayer. We have many thoughts in our heads. Thinking about Believing on Jesus is not Believing on Jesus.

For example. Ask People what the Gospel is? Many people will say John 3:16. Many people will say that Jesus died for the Sins of the World.

There is not a lot of Ignorance about what the Gospel is. The majority of Lost people you ask will correctly tell you the Gospel. A big reason for this is TV and Movies Love Mocking Christian’s, Christianity. People on TV, in the Movies will Mockingly Say things like. “Yes, I know Jesus Loves Me. He Died for all of My Sins. He wants to Save me. Blah, Blah, Blah.”

Lost people do know. That Jesus, Died, was buried and he Rose from the Dead. To Save the World from their Sins. That is in their minds. In their thoughts.  Knowing the Gospel is not Believing the Gospel.

If You Believe the Gospel You will Ask Jesus to Save You.

“I Believe in Jesus.” But you Never Asked Jesus to Save You. This Does Not sound like a Person who Believes the Gospel. Who has Believed in Jesus Only to Save them.

The last example. You can Believe that Tylenol will take away your headache. That is a great Belief. But until you actually take the Tylenol you will still have your headache.

Salvation is something you have to Accept. Receive. Ask for. The Thief on the Cross Asked Jesus to Save him. The Samaritan Woman Asked Jesus to Save her. Jesus told the Samaritan Woman, if you would have ASKED.

I will Believe Jesus over anyone Else.

Jesus said ASK. Yes, Jesus said ASK to Be Saved. Everyone Saying you will Go to Hell. If You say the Sinner’s Prayer. They are Going to Hell. Do not Go to Hell Believing them.

Praying The Sinner’s Prayer is Biblical. You are doing what it Says in Romans 10:13. Romans 10:13 “For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.”

How do you call on the name of the Lord today? Well, You Pray.

Beware of False Teachers.

Hell Is Real.

Hell is Real. You Do Not Have to Go to Hell. Jesus Saves us From Hell.

Most people Laugh or get Angry. When you Warn them about Hell. Hell is Not Real in their minds. Pretending Hell is not real is No Solution. Hell Fire is Real. Hollywood daily Mocks Hell in Movies and on TV. They enjoy belittling Christian’s. They Laugh and make Hell a big Joke. Their Laughter will not keep the out of Hell.

Jude 1:23 “And others save with fear, pulling them out of the fire; hating even the garment spotted by the flesh.”

The Bible Says to Save people with Fear. The Fear of going to Hell. The Fear of Hell Saves People.

People argue with me. “Jesus is not a Fire Escape.” “Ask Jesus to Save You? Praying to Jesus will not Save You.”   

Let’s think about this. Jesus Died to Save mankind from Hell. Jesus Preached about Hell more than Heaven. Being Afraid of Going To Hell is a Good Reason to get Saved.

Is 100% Biblical. 

People get very very mad and angry when I mention Hell.

I constantly hear: “The Gospel is about Love. Not Hell.” “All YOU are trying to do, IS Scare people. Which is not sharing the Love of Jesus!”

“How Dare You! You Tell Children. That if they do not Believe the Gospel. They will go to Hell! How DARE YOU!” “I do not Believe in a God. That will Send people to Hell.” “Scaring Children. Teaching them about Hell is Wrong.”

The Bible Warns Us Not To Go To Hell. It Warns That The Lost Will Go To Hell / The Lake of Fire.

Hell in the book of Revelation.

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.

I am a Sinner. You are a Sinner. We are all Sinners.

Sinners Deserve to go to Hell. Once You realize this. Than You can look to Jesus to Save You from the Penalty of Your Sins. Jesus came to Save Sinners.

1st Timothy 1:15 “This is a faithful saying, and worthy of all acceptation, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners; of whom I am chief.”

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.”   

How does Jesus Save a person from their Sins?

Jesus Saves us from Our Sins by taking Our Place. Jesus Paid the Price for All of our Sins. He Bore God’s Wrath. Jesus Bore our Sins in his Own Body on the Cross. Jesus Saves Everyone who Believes on Him from Hell. 

To Save From Hell is Part of the Gospel.

If you do not tell people that Jesus Saves us from Hell. Than you are not Sharing the Gospel.

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:

Saved from the Wrath of God. Saved from Hell.

Salvation. Saved from God’s Wrath. Saved from his Eternal Punishment. Which is Hell / The Lake of Fire.

Jesus Took Our Deserved Punishment.

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.” 

The Gospel in Isaiah.

Isaiah 53:4 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. 

Jesus was the Only Possible Perfect Blood Sacrifice for Sins. No other Sacrifice could Pay the Price for Our Sins.

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.”

Hebrews 9:28 “So Christ was once offered to bear the sins of many; and unto them that look for him shall he appear the second time without sin unto salvation.”

Let’s look some more at what the Bible Says about Hell.

Jesus preached to the Lost about Hell. He Warned them about going to Hell if they Rejected him.

Matthew 23:33 “Ye serpents, ye generation of vipers, how can ye escape the damnation of hell?”

Matthew 5:22 “But I say unto you, That whosoever is angry with his brother without a cause shall be in danger of the judgment: and whosoever shall say to his brother, Raca, shall be in danger of the council: but whosoever shall say, Thou fool, shall be in danger of hell fire.”

Luke Chapter 16. The Rich Man In Hell And Lazarus. This Is Not a Parable. It is an actual event that Jesus Warned people about.

Luke 16:19 There was a certain rich man, which was clothed in purple and fine linen, and fared sumptuously every day:

20 And there was a certain beggar named Lazarus, which was laid at his gate, full of sores,

21 And desiring to be fed with the crumbs which fell from the rich man’s table: moreover the dogs came and licked his sores.

22 And it came to pass, that the beggar died, and was carried by the angels into Abraham’s bosom: the rich man also died, and was buried;

23 And in hell he lift up his eyes, being in torments, and seeth Abraham afar off, and Lazarus in his bosom.

24 And he cried and said, Father Abraham, have mercy on me, and send Lazarus, that he may dip the tip of his finger in water, and cool my tongue; for I am tormented in this flame.

25 But Abraham said, Son, remember that thou in thy lifetime receivedst thy good things, and likewise Lazarus evil things: but now he is comforted, and thou art tormented.

26 And beside all this, between us and you there is a great gulf fixed: so that they which would pass from hence to you cannot; neither can they pass to us, that would come from thence.

27 Then he said, I pray thee therefore, father, that thou wouldest send him to my father’s house:

28 For I have five brethren; that he may testify unto them, lest they also come into this place of torment.

29 Abraham saith unto him, They have Moses and the prophets; let them hear them.

30 And he said, Nay, father Abraham: but if one went unto them from the dead, they will repent.

31 And he said unto him, If they hear not Moses and the prophets, neither will they be persuaded, though one rose from the dead. 

People who Go to Hell. They Go to Hell. Because they have Rejected Jesus Free Gift of Salvation. If YHell was not even made for Mankind. Hell was made for the Devil and his Angels.

Matthew 25:41 “Then shall he say also unto them on the left hand, Depart from me, ye cursed, into everlasting fire, prepared for the devil and his angels:”

Jesus has the Keys of Death and of Hell. Jesus’ Sacrifice Paid for all the Sins of the World.

Revelation 1:17 And when I saw him, I fell at his feet as dead. And he laid his right hand upon me, saying unto me, Fear not; I am the first and the last:

18 I am he that liveth, and was dead; and, behold, I am alive for evermore, Amen; and have the keys of hell and of death.

Jesus Saves from Hell. From The Wrath of God.

Romans 5:6 For when we were yet without strength, in due time Christ died for the ungodly. 

7 For scarcely for a righteous man will one die: yet peradventure for a good man some would even dare to die. 

8 But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us. 

9 Much more then, being now justified by his blood, we shall be saved from wrath through him. 

10 For if, when we were enemies, we were reconciled to God by the death of his Son, much more, being reconciled, we shall be saved by his life. 

11 And not only so, but we also joy in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, by whom we have now received the atonement. 

12 Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned:

Jesus Death . We are Saved by Jesus Life. By His Resurrection.

If Jesus had not Died on the Cross. I would N We are Saved by the entire Gospel. Jesus Death, his Burial and his Resurrection. If Jesus had Not been Raised from the Dead. Than he could not have Saved us.

In the verses. We can see. That Jesus came to Save Sinners from Hell. If You do not Realize You are a Sinner. You cannot be Saved.

1st Thessalonians 1:10 “And to wait for his Son from heaven, whom he raised from the dead, even Jesus, which delivered us from the wrath to come.”

Matthew 3:7 “But when he saw many of the Pharisees and Sadducees come to his baptism, he said unto them, O generation of vipers, who hath warned you to flee from the wrath to come?”

The Wrath to come is Hell. Jesus Saves from Hell.

During the Great Tribulation. It will be Hell on Earth.  Because God pours out his Wrath on all Mankind. The Bible is full of Warnings. About people going to Hell.

Beware of False Teachers.

False Teachers will deceive Billion of people. They will drag them to Hell with them. Because of their False Gospel of Works.

Jude 4 For there are certain men crept in unawares, who were before of old ordained to this condemnation, ungodly men, turning the grace of our God into lasciviousness, and denying the only Lord God, and our Lord Jesus Christ.

5 I will therefore put you in remembrance, though ye once knew this, how that the Lord, having saved the people out of the land of Egypt, afterward destroyed them that believed not.

6 And the angels which kept not their first estate, but left their own habitation, he hath reserved in everlasting chains under darkness unto the judgment of the great day.

7 Even as Sodom and Gomorrha, and the cities about them in like manner, giving themselves over to fornication, and going after strange flesh, are set forth for an example, suffering the vengeance of eternal fire.

2nd Peter 2:1 But there were false prophets also among the people, even as there shall be false teachers among you, who privily shall bring in damnable heresies, even denying the Lord that bought them, and bring upon themselves swift destruction.

2 And many shall follow their pernicious ways; by reason of whom the way of truth shall be evil spoken of.

3 And through covetousness shall they with feigned words make merchandise of you: whose judgment now of a long time lingereth not, and their damnation slumbereth not.

4 For if God spared not the angels that sinned, but cast them down to hell, and delivered them into chains of darkness, to be reserved unto judgment;

5 And spared not the old world, but saved Noah the eighth person, a preacher of righteousness, bringing in the flood upon the world of the ungodly;

6 And turning the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah into ashes condemned them with an overthrow, making them an ensample unto those that after should live ungodly;

7 And delivered just Lot, vexed with the filthy conversation of the wicked:

8 (For that righteous man dwelling among them, in seeing and hearing, vexed his righteous soul from day to day with their unlawful deeds;)

9 The Lord knoweth how to deliver the godly out of temptations, and to reserve the unjust unto the day of judgment to be punished:

Believe on Jesus. Ask Jesus to Save you from Hell.

Romans 3:9 What then? are we better than they? No, in no wise: for we have before proved both Jews and Gentiles, that they are all under sin;

10 As it is written, There is none righteous, no, not one:

11 There is none that understandeth, there is none that seeketh after God.

12 They are all gone out of the way, they are together become unprofitable; there is none that doeth good, no, not one.

Romans 6:23 “For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.”

Romans 3:10 and 6:23 is telling the Lost they are Lost Sinners. Sinners that Deserve to Go to Hell. Death in the Bible in the context of Sin is talking about Hell. Which is the 2nd Death. The Wages of Sin is Death. Physical Death. 

Jesus offers Eternal Life to Everyone who Believes on Him. Do Not Go To Hell.

Jesus Saves from Hell. Jesus Bore our Sins in his own body. To Save us from Hell.

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:

A complete explanation of the Gospel.

The Gospel is: Jesus Died for our Sins. He Died in our Place. Bearing the Penalty for All of our Sins. Jesus Saved us from Death. The 2nd Death. Which is Hell. Jesus took our place. Jesus Saves us From Hell / The Lake of Fire. Salvation is to Believe. That Jesus Paid for all of our Sins. By his Death, Burial and Resurrection.
