To Be Saved, Biblical Bible Salvation: What Does It Mean To Believe On / In Jesus?

Belief In Jesus. To Believe On Jesus is How a Person is Saved. This is Biblical Bible Salvation. When You Understand who Jesus is. Who the Biblical Jesus is.

The Problem Confusion on the Belief In / On Jesus, starts Immediately in the Bible. In the Garden of Eden and it has Continued until today.

There are Huge Major Controversies about what Belief In / On Jesus Means, (Is) for Salvation. I will Clear this All up Biblically, All of the Confusion, in this Message.

**** NOTE **** This will be a Long Message. It has to be to do Justice to the Topic and to Give a Complete Readable Clear Conclusive Biblical Explanation. People (Actually, Dishonest Trolls, that Do the Work of Satan. Counterfeit Christians who Demand that I explain every word I say with the Bible.) Demand that I Go into Great Detail than when I do they say: “I am not going to Read that Novel…” These Lying Frauds Demand Detailed Explanations but when I give them what they are requesting they refuse to read what I have written. These Devils Don’t care about the Truth. They All have Rejected the Truth Long ago. They just want to Tear Down the Truth so they can Push their False Gospel of Works.

**** Please Don’t Ignore the Truth. Please take the time to read this entire Salvation Message. This Salvation Message is the Most Important Message on Salvation You can Ever Read. ****

The Top Salvation Issue is Belief In / Belief On Jesus Himself. The Belief in the Bible. Belief in what Jesus says in the Bible.

People Get Easily Confused Because they Expect to Hear the Truth in Church. Sadly they are Taught Lies in Most Churches. Their Family and Friends Repeat the False Gospel they were taught too, so it is Understandable why People are Confused about Salvation.

God IS NOT the Author of Confusion.

1st Corinthians 14:33 For God is not the author of confusion, but of peace, as in all churches of the saints.

Satan, Lucifer, the Devil is the Author of Confusion.

To Be Clear I have to go over the Fight against the Truth of Jesus, the Belief In / On Jesus. The Origin of this Fight:

Genesis 3:1 Now the serpent was more subtil than any beast of the field which the Lord God had made. And he said unto the woman, Yea, hath God said, Ye shall not eat of every tree of the garden?

Jesus was Attacked by Satan from the Very Beginning of the Human Race. Satan Lied to Eve in the Garden of Eden. Satan the Liar, called Jesus a Liar.

Questioning the Truth of Jesus Words is What All False Counterfeit Christians and Churches do.

They make People Doubt, Question what the Bible is Clearly Saying. Like Satan they Add to Jesus Words and Subtract, Omit Words that Jesus said. They Openly Call Jesus a Liar.

By Doing this they make themselves God.

Almost Every “Christian” Church on the Earth says: “Belief On / In Jesus Alone will Not Save You.”

They Openly Mock the Suggestion that You are Saved by Believing On / In Jesus Only to Save You.

What the Bible Says on Salvation:

Acts 16:30 “…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 entire passage:

Acts 16:25 And at midnight Paul and Silas prayed, and sang praises unto God: and the prisoners heard them. 26 And suddenly there was a great earthquake, so that the foundations of the prison were shaken: and immediately all the doors were opened, and every one’s bands were loosed. 27 And the keeper of the prison awaking out of his sleep, and seeing the prison doors open, he drew out his sword, and would have killed himself, supposing that the prisoners had been fled. 28 But Paul cried with a loud voice, saying, Do thyself no harm: for we are all here. 29 Then he called for a light, and sprang in, and came trembling, and fell down before Paul and Silas, 30 And brought them out, and said, Sirs, what must I do to be saved? 31 And they said, Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved, and thy house. 32 And they spake unto him the word of the Lord, and to all that were in his house.

Acts 16:30 “…Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved…”

This Message Will Explain what it means to Believe On In the Lord Jesus Christ.

Explaining Acts 16:30:

The Jailer he Asked how to Be Saved. The Answer was: Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ.

To Be Saved You Need to Understand what it means to Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ.

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

Paul told him the Words of Jesus…

He Explained to him who Jesus was and what his Ministry was. Basically a summary of the Gospel’s. What he and Jesus other Disciples have been Preaching. What Paul was Jailed for Preaching.

Satan, False Counterfeit Churches All Add Works to Salvation, or Just Omit Jesus Own Words on Salvation to Keep People from Being Saved. To Confuse people. To Confuse the Truth of the Gospel.

God is Not the Author of Confusion, which means False Churches, Counterfeit Churches are Deliberately Twisting the Scriptures to Teach a False Gospel that is Not Taught in the Bible.

Understand A Lie is A Lie Not Only when You Tell Something that is Not True. A Lie is Also A Lie when you Tell Half Truths, Omit the Whole Truth. Like Say: “Belief in the Gospel Only to Be Saved, means that You Do Not have to Believe that Jesus is God…”

Satan is the Author of Confusion. He is a Liar:

John 8:44 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.

The entire passage:

John 8:39 They answered and said unto him, Abraham is our father. Jesus saith unto them, If ye were Abraham’s children, ye would do the works of Abraham. 40 But now ye seek to kill me, a man that hath told you the truth, which I have heard of God: this did not Abraham. 41 Ye do the deeds of your father. Then said they to him, We be not born of fornication; we have one Father, even God. 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.

Jesus was Crucified because he Said he was God, the Promised Messiah.

We are Saved by Believing In, On Jesus Only, by Believing the Entire 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:

False Teachers, Counterfeit Christianity, Ignore: “…if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain.”

Here in Verse 2 Paul is calling Everyone’s attention to his Prior Preaching on Salvation. There is No Doubt that Paul and All of the Disciples Taught the Basic Long Established Truths: Jesus is God, Jesus was Virgin Born, Salvation is Eternal Life, etc… Jesus Taught, Preached All of this in the Bible, during his Ministry.

You cannot be Saved if You Deny these Truths and other Essential Truths that Jesus Taught / Preached. Paul and All of Jesus Disciples Taught / Preached the same Truth, the same Gospel Message.

To Be Saved a Person must be Taught, hear the Word of God Preached over time. Preaching takes place over time.

This Means there are many Things that a Person Must Believe about Jesus to be Saved. You cannot just give a person a few Bible Verses and tell them that they are Saved if they Believe them Only.

Countless People who Claim to Believe the Gospel Only for their Salvation will say: “I Don’t Believe Jesus is God.” “I Don’t Believe in Eternal Life.” “You have to be Baptized to Be Saved. ETC…”

People Add Works to the Gospel and they Deny Essential Facts concerning Jesus and the Gospel and Claim they are Saved. This All Happens because they were taught a False Gospel.

Thousands of these People Have NEVER HEARD THE BIBLE TAUGHT / PREACHED A DAY IN THEIR LIVES. Many of them read False “Christian” Tracts, Books and Believed them. Or they grew up in, went to a False Counterfeit Christian Church. Thus they have Never Heard the Bible Preached. A False Message is a False Gospel. Hearing Only Part of the Gospel, Not Hearing the Biblical Gospel Preached, Taught Completely is Not the Hearing the Message of the Gospel.

1st Corinthians 1:21 For after that in the wisdom of God the world by wisdom knew not God, it pleased God by the foolishness of preaching to save them that believe.

We Are SAVED Through the Preaching of the Word of God.

Belief in the Gospel is 100% how we are Saved. With the Understanding of the Teaching the Preaching that Jesus did in the Gospels.

You Have to Believe In / On the Biblical Jesus to Be Saved.

The Bible Tells us Warns us of False Gospel’s, False Christ’s. Repeatedly Jesus Warns us about these False Prophets that Teach a False Gospel, a False Jesus.

In the 4 Gospels we can read Jesus words he Taught. Jesus Directly taught these words to his Disciples to the Apostle Paul too.

What Jesus taught in the Bible in the 4 Gospels is Essential for us to Believe for our Salvation, to be Saved.

The Word of God from Genesis to Revelation is ALL Jesus Words spoken by himself to us written down by men he chose to do so in the Bible.

Jesus makes it Clear in the Gospels what the Essential Beliefs are for Salvation. (Believe In, Believe On Jesus to be Saved.)

Believe In Jesus, Believe On Jesus Clearly Means to Believe what He Taught / Preached about Himself.

Jesus said He was God in the Flesh. Jesus said he was Virgin Born. Jesus taught Salvation is Eternal Life. Jesus said we are Saved by Believing his Words, by Believing what the Scriptures said about him. What this means is what the Old Testament said about him. Jesus taught the Complete, Entire Gospel Contrary to what Ignorant people believe. Jesus being the Savior of the World is Taught in the Old Testament, Not just in the New Testament.

Everything that the New Testament Teaches about Salvation is also Taught in the Old Testament.

Jesus was Crucified because he Claimed to be the Promised Messiah / that he was God in the Flesh.

So if You want to Understand How to Be Saved you Need to Understand Exactly what Jesus Preached and Taught which I am in the Process of Explaining in this Message.

Any Honest Person who Reads this Entire Message will see that Everything I am saying is Firmly Established in the Bible and is Not my own Independent Teaching.

Every True Christian Church Believes what I am including below. Everything I am saying is Well Established Church Doctrine. It is just Summarized and Explained in Plain Language to make it Easy for people with a Grade School Education to Understand.

1st Corinthians 14:33 For God is not the author of confusion, but of peace, as in all churches of the saints.

James 3:14 But if ye have bitter envying and strife in your hearts, glory not, and lie not against the truth. 15 This wisdom descendeth not from above, but is earthly, sensual, devilish. 16 For where envying and strife is, there is confusion and every evil work. 17 But the wisdom that is from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, and easy to be intreated, full of mercy and good fruits, without partiality, and without hypocrisy. 18 And the fruit of righteousness is sown in peace of them that make peace.

To Be Saved a Person Does Not Need to be a Bible Scholar. But they Do Need to know what Jesus Taught. They Need to Understand what Jesus Preached.

Belief, to Believe has to Based on Jesus on what Jesus Preached and Taught in the Gospels, in the Bible.

Counterfeit Christians, Counterfeit Evangelists and Churches they are Pushing Salvation without Preaching, without Teaching. As if a Person who is Ignorant of the Bible, of Jesus Ministry can Somehow be Saved with Complete Ignorance of the Scriptures. That is NOT WHAT JESUS TAUGHT!!!!

Jesus Ministry Lasted for 3 ½ years for a Good Reason. He Preached Continuously Quoting the Scriptures. He Declared that he was the Promised Messiah. He performed Numerous Miracles to Establish himself as the Promised Messiah, God in the Flesh.

Too Many So-Called “Christian” Evangelists will spend 10 minutes with a Person and Get them to Say a Prayer and they will Declare that Presto they are Saved.

Many False Counterfeit Christian Evangelists / Churches Do this!!!! Where is the Preaching!!!!

Preaching is Required for a Person to Be Saved!!!! The Bible is Very Clear on this.

1st Corinthians 1:21 For after that in the wisdom of God the world by wisdom knew not God, it pleased God by the foolishness of preaching to save them that believe.

Preaching! Preaching! Preaching!!!!

Christianity 101 You must Believe Everything Below to Be Saved.

There is NOT ONE LEGITIMATE CHRISTIAN CHURCH THAT WILL DENY JESUS / THE BIBLE HAS ESTABLISHED THE BELOW CORE BELIEFS THAT ARE ESSENTIAL FOR SALVATION.

For Example: If Jesus had a human Father than Jesus could Not Save us. Jesus could Not Save us if he was Not God in the Flesh. These (The Virgin Birth and Jesus Deity / Jesus is God in the Flesh) are just two Examples from Christianity 101 of why there are Essential Biblical Beliefs for a Person to Be Saved. Jesus Himself Established All of these in the New Testament and in the Old Testament.

Many False Teachers / Counterfeit Christianity, will Claim that these Essential Beliefs are All or in Part Just False Catholic Teachings that are Not All True and even if True are Not Essential to a Person’s Salvation. Only a Lost Biblically Ignorant Person would Believe their Lies.

Christianity 101:

Jesus Virgin Birth:

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

Matthew 1:23 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.

John 1:1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. 2 The same was in the beginning with God. 3 All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made. 4 In him was life; and the life was the light of men. 5 And the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not. 6 There was a man sent from God, whose name was John. 7 The same came for a witness, to bear witness of the Light, that all men through him might believe. 8 He was not that Light, but was sent to bear witness of that Light. 9 That was the true Light, which lighteth every man that cometh into the world. 10 He was in the world, and the world was made by him, and the world knew him not. 11 He came unto his own, and his own received him not. 12 But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name: 13 Which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God. 14 And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth.

The Deity of Jesus Christ, Jesus is God in the Flesh:

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

Titus 2:13 Looking for that blessed hope, and the glorious appearing of the great God and our Saviour Jesus Christ; 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. 15 These things speak, and exhort, and rebuke with all authority. Let no man despise thee.

1st John 5:20 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.

The Trinity / There is 1 God in 3 Persons: God the Father, God the Son (Jesus), and God the Holy Spirit / the Holy Ghost:

Matthew 3:16 And Jesus, when he was baptized, went up straightway out of the water: and, lo, the heavens were opened unto him, and he saw the Spirit of God descending like a dove, and lighting upon him: 17 And lo a voice from heaven, saying, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.

John 14:23 Jesus answered and said unto him, If a man love me, he will keep my words: and my Father will love him, and we will come unto him, and make our abode with him. 24 He that loveth me not keepeth not my sayings: and the word which ye hear is not mine, but the Father’s which sent me. 25 These things have I spoken unto you, being yet present with you. 26 But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you. 27 Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth, give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid. 28 Ye have heard how I said unto you, I go away, and come again unto you. If ye loved me, ye would rejoice, because I said, I go unto the Father: for my Father is greater than I. 29 And now I have told you before it come to pass, that, when it is come to pass, ye might believe. 30 Hereafter I will not talk much with you: for the prince of this world cometh, and hath nothing in me. 31 But that the world may know that I love the Father; and as the Father gave me commandment, even so I do. Arise, let us go hence.

The Bible is the Inerrant Word of God:

Psalms 12:6 The words of the Lord are pure words: as silver tried in a furnace of earth, purified seven times. 7 Thou shalt keep them, O Lord, thou shalt preserve them from this generation for ever.

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.

Psalms 18:28 For thou wilt light my candle: the Lord my God will enlighten my darkness. 29 For by thee I have run through a troop; and by my God have I leaped over a wall. 30 As for God, his way is perfect: the word of the Lord is tried: he is a buckler to all those that trust in him. 31 For who is God save the Lord? or who is a rock save our God? 32 It is God that girdeth me with strength, and maketh my way perfect. 33 He maketh my feet like hinds’ feet, and setteth me upon my high places. 34 He teacheth my hands to war, so that a bow of steel is broken by mine arms. 35 Thou hast also given me the shield of thy salvation: and thy right hand hath holden me up, and thy gentleness hath made me great. 36 Thou hast enlarged my steps under me, that my feet did not slip.

**** The above passages in Proverbs 30 and in Psalms 18 are telling us to Trust in the Scriptures and if we Do God will Protect us. Psalms 18 is Establishing that God’s Word is a candle a light that will show us the way. If we Believe and follow God’s Word God will Bless us and give us the ability to Accomplish Everything he has Directed us to do.

****Note**** John Chapter 5, as do other Chapters in the Bible, Establishes All the Essential Points of Christianity 101. The Bible is Highly Repetitive and Some Passages Speak to Jesus Deity / Virgin Birth, Eternal Salvation, the Authority of the Belief in the Scriptures to Save You, The Gospel.

John 5:14 Afterward Jesus findeth him in the temple, and said unto him, Behold, thou art made whole: sin no more, lest a worse thing come unto thee. 15 The man departed, and told the Jews that it was Jesus, which had made him whole. 16 And therefore did the Jews persecute Jesus, and sought to slay him, because he had done these things on the sabbath day. 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. 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. 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. 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 Direct Reference to Jesus Preaching, that they would have known and heard:

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.

**** When Reading the Bible there are countless cross-references to other Scriptures that are clear from the text that you are reading like the above passage.

**** It is Essential to read the Bible Completely, Continually to be able to understand it for yourself.

25 Verily, verily, I say unto you, The hour is coming, and now is, when the dead shall hear the voice of the Son of God: and they that hear shall live. 26 For as the Father hath life in himself; so hath he given to the Son to have life in himself; 27 And hath given him authority to execute judgment also, because he is the Son of man. 28 Marvel not at this: for the hour is coming, in the which all that are in the graves shall hear his voice, 29 And shall come forth; they that have done good, unto the resurrection of life; and they that have done evil, unto the resurrection of damnation. 30 I can of mine own self do nothing: as I hear, I judge: and my judgment is just; because I seek not mine own will, but the will of the Father which hath sent me. 31 If I bear witness of myself, my witness is not true. 32 There is another that beareth witness of me; and I know that the witness which he witnesseth of me is true. 33 Ye sent unto John, and he bare witness unto the truth. 34 But I receive not testimony from man: but these things I say, that ye might be saved. 35 He was a burning and a shining light: and ye were willing for a season to rejoice in his light. 36 But I have greater witness than that of John: for the works which the Father hath given me to finish, the same works that I do, bear witness of me, that the Father hath sent me. 37 And the Father himself, which hath sent me, hath borne witness of me. Ye have neither heard his voice at any time, nor seen his shape. 38 And ye have not his word abiding in you: for whom he hath sent, him ye believe not. 39 Search the scriptures; for in them ye think ye have eternal life: and they are they which testify of me. 40 And ye will not come to me, that ye might have life. 41 I receive not honour from men. 42 But I know you, that ye have not the love of God in you. 43 I am come in my Father’s name, and ye receive me not: if another shall come in his own name, him ye will receive. 44 How can ye believe, which receive honour one of another, and seek not the honour that cometh from God only? 45 Do not think that I will accuse you to the Father: there is one that accuseth you, even Moses, in whom ye trust. 46 For had ye believed Moses, ye would have believed me: for he wrote of me. 47 But if ye believe not his writings, how shall ye believe my words?

Salvation is Not Hard, or Difficult to Understand when You Believe the Bible, read it for Yourself. Salvation is Not by Works. We cannot Work our Way to Heaven. Salvation in and of itself is Not a Process.

Salvation Does Require Knowledge of the Scriptures: Again “…it pleased God by the foolishness of preaching to save them that believe.”

Jesus Preached for 3 ½ years and he performed Many Miracles to Prove that he was indeed God the Promised Messiah.

1st Corinthians 1:10 Now I beseech you, brethren, by the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that ye all speak the same thing, and that there be no divisions among you; but that ye be perfectly joined together in the same mind and in the same judgment. 11 For it hath been declared unto me of you, my brethren, by them which are of the house of Chloe, that there are contentions among you. 12 Now this I say, that every one of you saith, I am of Paul; and I of Apollos; and I of Cephas; and I of Christ. 13 Is Christ divided? was Paul crucified for you? or were ye baptized in the name of Paul? 14 I thank God that I baptized none of you, but Crispus and Gaius; 15 Lest any should say that I had baptized in mine own name. 16 And I baptized also the household of Stephanas: besides, I know not whether I baptized any other. 17 For Christ sent me not to baptize, but to preach the gospel: not with wisdom of words, lest the cross of Christ should be made of none effect. 18 For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is the power of God. 19 For it is written, I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, and will bring to nothing the understanding of the prudent. 20 Where is the wise? where is the scribe? where is the disputer of this world? hath not God made foolish the wisdom of this world? 21 For after that in the wisdom of God the world by wisdom knew not God, it pleased God by the foolishness of preaching to save them that believe. 22 For the Jews require a sign, and the Greeks seek after wisdom: 23 But we preach Christ crucified, unto the Jews a stumblingblock, and unto the Greeks foolishness; 24 But unto them which are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of God, and the wisdom of God. 25 Because the foolishness of God is wiser than men; and the weakness of God is stronger than men. 26 For ye see your calling, brethren, how that not many wise men after the flesh, not many mighty, not many noble, are called: 27 But God hath chosen the foolish things of the world to confound the wise; and God hath chosen the weak things of the world to confound the things which are mighty; 28 And base things of the world, and things which are despised, hath God chosen, yea, and things which are not, to bring to nought things that are: 29 That no flesh should glory in his presence. 30 But of him are ye in Christ Jesus, who of God is made unto us wisdom, and righteousness, and sanctification, and redemption: 31 That, according as it is written, He that glorieth, let him glory in the Lord.

Belief In / On Jesus Requires You to Believe in the Biblical Jesus. People are Believing In / On a False Jesus.

Please Beware of Blindly Believing People who Just Say Believe On Jesus. Believe In Jesus. That Message Does Nothing at All to Define Jesus. What Jesus are they telling You About???

If it is Just Left open ended without Definition that is Not a Salvation Message.

Jesus warned against False Prophets, False Anti-Christ’s. About False Christ’s.

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

Mark 12:38 And he said unto them in his doctrine, Beware of the scribes, which love to go in long clothing, and love salutations in the marketplaces, 39 And the chief seats in the synagogues, and the uppermost rooms at feasts: 40 Which devour widows’ houses, and for a pretence make long prayers: these shall receive greater damnation.

Acts 20:28 Take heed therefore unto yourselves, and to all the flock, over the which the Holy Ghost hath made you overseers, to feed the church of God, which he hath purchased with his own blood. 29 For I know this, that after my departing shall grievous wolves enter in among you, not sparing the flock. 30 Also of your own selves shall men arise, speaking perverse things, to draw away disciples after them. 31 Therefore watch, and remember, that by the space of three years I ceased not to warn every one night and day with tears. 32 And now, brethren, I commend you to God, and to the word of his grace, which is able to build you up, and to give you an inheritance among all them which are sanctified. 33 I have coveted no man’s silver, or gold, or apparel. 34 Yea, ye yourselves know, that these hands have ministered unto my necessities, and to them that were with me. 35 I have shewed you all things, how that so labouring ye ought to support the weak, and to remember the words of the Lord Jesus, how he said, It is more blessed to give than to receive. 36 And when he had thus spoken, he kneeled down, and prayed with them all.

To Be Saved You Must Believe In / On the Biblical Jesus. The Jesus in John Chapter 10:

John 10:1 Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that entereth not by the door into the sheepfold, but climbeth up some other way, the same is a thief and a robber. 2 But he that entereth in by the door is the shepherd of the sheep. 3 To him the porter openeth; and the sheep hear his voice: and he calleth his own sheep by name, and leadeth them out. 4 And when he putteth forth his own sheep, he goeth before them, and the sheep follow him: for they know his voice. 5 And a stranger will they not follow, but will flee from him: for they know not the voice of strangers. 6 This parable spake Jesus unto them: but they understood not what things they were which he spake unto them. 7 Then said Jesus unto them again, Verily, verily, I say unto you, I am the door of the sheep. 8 All that ever came before me are thieves and robbers: but the sheep did not hear them. 9 I am the door: by me if any man enter in, he shall be saved, and shall go in and out, and find pasture. 10 The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly. 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. 14 I am the good shepherd, and know my sheep, and am known of mine. 15 As the Father knoweth me, even so know I the Father: and I lay down my life for the sheep. 16 And other sheep I have, which are not of this fold: them also I must bring, and they shall hear my voice; and there shall be one fold, and one shepherd. 17 Therefore doth my Father love me, because I lay down my life, that I might take it again. 18 No man taketh it from me, but I lay it down of myself. I have power to lay it down, and I have power to take it again. This commandment have I received of my Father. 19 There was a division therefore again among the Jews for these sayings. 20 And many of them said, He hath a devil, and is mad; why hear ye him? 21 Others said, These are not the words of him that hath a devil. Can a devil open the eyes of the blind? 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.

Salvation is Easy when You Understand who Jesus is Biblically in the Bible. The Jesus of the Bible. Not the made up False Jesus’s from False Churches, False Religions.

Jesus is God in the Flesh, Born of the Virgin Mary who Gives Eternal Life to Everyone who Believes In / On him Only For Salvation.

Beware of False Teachers that Teach it is Works to Ask Jesus to Save You. That if You Pray and Ask Jesus to Save You that it is a False Salvation.

They will Falsely Tell You that the Thief on the Cross who Asked Jesus to Save Him was Given a Special Unique Salvation that Does Not Apply to You.

The Bible Says that there is Only One Gospel, Only One Way to Be Saved For Everyone:

Galatians 6:1 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. 10 For do I now persuade men, or God? or do I seek to please men? for if I yet pleased men, I should not be the servant of Christ. 11 But I certify you, brethren, that the gospel which was preached of me is not after man. 12 For I neither received it of man, neither was I taught it, but by the revelation of Jesus Christ.

Beware of Anyone, Any Church that Teaches more than One Way to Be Saved in the Bible. From Genesis to Revelation there has Always Only Been One Way to Be Saved.

Belief In The ENTIRE Gospel, On / In Jesus is The Only Bible Way to Be Saved.

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

Asking to Be Saved is Biblical:

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 to Be Saved and it was Clear he knew who Jesus was. Jesus Immediately Answered him: “To day shalt thou be with me in paradise.”

Salvation Happens Immediately when you have Asked Jesus to Save You, Because You have Believed In / On him.

You Do Not have to Ever Doubt Your Salvation.

A Quick Review:

To Be Saved You have to Believe On / In the Biblical Jesus. Understand that Jesus is God. Born of the Virgin Mary. (Mary is Not a Virgin Now she was a Virgin when Jesus was Born. The Bible Clearly Tells us Jesus had Brothers and Sisters.)

Jesus Died, was Buried, and Rose from the Dead to Give us Eternal Life. Jesus Died for All of the Sins of the World. The Word of God is the Final Authority, not man, and Tells us the Truth Concerning Jesus and Salvation. Salvation is 100% Jesus. You cannot do Anything to Add to Jesus Sacrifice for Salvation. Salvation is Jesus Only Plus Nothing Else.

You are Not Saved if You Deny that Salvation is Eternal Life.

Asking to Be Saved is Biblical.

We Are Saved by the Bible, by the Preaching of the Word of God.

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.

Scholar? Christian Scholar? Beware of Blindly Believing Anyone. Do Not Be Smug / Arrogant. The Bible is the Final Authority for Christians.

Walk Away From Smug / Arrogant People if you can. Below is How to Deal with them Biblically when you have to.

Often A Person Becomes Instantly Smug / Arrogant when they Realize You are Right and they are Wrong. They Typically Will Not Admit that they are Wrong though. But You know they Realize they are Wrong because of their Smug / Arrogant Response.

Their Response: “OK, I Get Your Point. We are Both Right.”

These Geniuses Say the Most Impossible, Ignorant things.

An Answer to a Legitimate Question is Either Correct (Right) or Incorrect (Wrong) Period. There is No In-Between. Water is Wet. If you say Water is Dry you are Wrong. At this point just Walk away.

The Best Way to Deal with a Smug / Arrogant Person that You have to Be Around:

When You cannot just walk away.

At Work, Church, Home, etc…

Do Not Interact with them when You Do Not Have to. Avoid them as much as You Possibly can. When You are Forced to Put them in their Place.

If it is an Issue at Work: Pull out the Work Manual / Work Procedures. Every Job has Documentation on how you are supposed to do your Job.

If they do not accept it. Make them call over the Person who is the Next Highest over you Both to Confirm that you are Right. You Do not want to be the seen as the One who Needs Supervision.

Being Right is: Not the Same thing as being Arrogant.

Being Right 1,000 times out of 1,000 just makes you Right, it Does Not make you Arrogant. A thin skinned person who is Wrong will Call You Arrogant just because they are Constantly Wrong and You are always Right.

The Reason You are Always Right in these Situations is if You Do Not know the Right Answer You will Say: “I Do Not Know the Answer. I will Find the Correct Answer though.”

It is Foolish to Answer a Question that You Do Not know the Answer to for Sure. There are many ways to Find the Correct Answer without Doubt.

An Arrogant Person:

An Arrogant Person is the Person who makes a Point of Letting Everyone Know when they are Right about Something and Someone Else is Wrong. 

When Someone Belittles someone for Being Wrong when they are Right that is Being Arrogant. Using words like:

“You are Stupid.”

“My 8 Year Old Sister knows this…”

This is how Arrogant People Talk.

A Smug Person

Being Smug is Something Arrogant People are. They Walk Around with a Superior Know It All, Attitude that you can Clearly see.

Being Smug is Also:

Rubbing it in when they are Right. This is Often Bizarre Because they Do this Even when No One Said that they were Wrong.

See I know what I am Talking about.” “I Solved this.” “I Fixed this.” “I Did this.” They are Way too Proud of just doing their Job Correctly.

You might say: “Did I say you were Wrong?”

Their Reply “No”

Your Reply “Good. I am Happy You are Having a Good Day at Work.”

Do Not Be Sarcastic. That is how an Arrogant, a Rude Person Replies. Just Be Happy for them. The Less You interact with them the Better.

Everything I said Above can be applied to anyone’s Circumstances.

In Life: at School, at Work, with Friends and Family, etc…, you have to Deal with Smug / Arrogant People.

Be Humble. When Someone is Always Rude and Arrogant that is who they are. That is Not You, who You are. You Need to Keep from Losing your Temper which is what they want You to do.

A Humble Person will Ignore, the Ignorant, Rude, Smug, Arrogant People they are around as much as they can.

There is a time and a place to Deal with them. Privately, if You Can. Sometimes you have to Immediately Set them Straight with the Truth when they Really Get Carried away with themselves.

How You Should React to them:

1st Corinthians 13:4 Charity suffereth long, and is kind; charity envieth not; charity vaunteth not itself, is not puffed up, 5 Doth not behave itself unseemly, seeketh not her own, is not easily provoked, thinketh no evil; 6 Rejoiceth not in iniquity, but rejoiceth in the truth; 7 Beareth all things, believeth all things, hopeth all things, endureth all things.

2nd Timothy 2:23 But foolish and unlearned questions avoid, knowing that they do gender strifes. 24 And the servant of the Lord must not strive; but be gentle unto all men, apt to teach, patient,

Titus 3:2 To speak evil of no man, to be no brawlers, but gentle, shewing all meekness unto all men. 3 For we ourselves also were sometimes foolish, disobedient, deceived, serving divers lusts and pleasures, living in malice and envy, hateful, and hating one another. 4 But after that the kindness and love of God our Saviour toward man appeared, 5 Not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to his mercy he saved us, by the washing of regeneration, and renewing of the Holy Ghost; 6 Which he shed on us abundantly through Jesus Christ our Saviour; 7 That being justified by his grace, we should be made heirs according to the hope of eternal life. 8 This is a faithful saying, and these things I will that thou affirm constantly, that they which have believed in God might be careful to maintain good works. These things are good and profitable unto men. 9 But avoid foolish questions, and genealogies, and contentions, and strivings about the law; for they are unprofitable and vain. 10 A man that is an heretick after the first and second admonition reject; 11 Knowing that he that is such is subverted, and sinneth, being condemned of himself.

The Above Passage Titus 3:2-11 Is the Very Best Possible Complete Answer on to how to Deal with Smug, Arrogant, People who are Causing Trouble.

Scholarship is a Lie:

1st Corinthians 1:19 For it is written, I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, and will bring to nothing the understanding of the prudent. 20 Where is the wise? where is the scribe? where is the disputer of this world? hath not God made foolish the wisdom of this world? 21 For after that in the wisdom of God the world by wisdom knew not God, it pleased God by the foolishness of preaching to save them that believe.

1st Corinthians 3:18 Let no man deceive himself. If any man among you seemeth to be wise in this world, let him become a fool, that he may be wise. 19 For the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God. For it is written, He taketh the wise in their own craftiness. 20 And again, The Lord knoweth the thoughts of the wise, that they are vain. 21 Therefore let no man glory in men. For all things are yours; 22 Whether Paul, or Apollos, or Cephas, or the world, or life, or death, or things present, or things to come; all are yours; 23 And ye are Christ’s; and Christ is God’s.

Please Do Not Be Delusional, Boastful of your Education, your “Intelligence.”

1st Corinthians 3:18 Let no man deceive himself. If any man among you seemeth to be wise in this world, let him become a fool, that he may be wise. 19 For the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God.

1st Corinthians 3:18-19 is a Warning to People, Especially to Christians.

The Warning is: Do Not Think that Being Educated by a College, any University makes you Intelligent, Wise. God Calls this FOOLISHNESS.

The Wisdom of this World is Satanic Propaganda:

The Excessive Pride Some People have when they talk about their Education makes me Sick.

I am Highly Educated. But I am Thankful, NOT ARROGANT about it. I am Happy to have gotten a Military Education in Advanced Electronics. I am not Boastful about it.

(When I Received my Education in the Navy Only 10% of Recruits Qualified for the Schools I completed through their ASVAB Test Scores. Only 20% of the People who started the Schools successfully completed the Schools. I Do Not Tell People this unless they ask about the Requirements to go to the Schools and what Scores a person had to get to pass the Schools.)

Disrespected By Arrogant College Educated People:

Men and Women with 2, 4, 6, 8 year degrees actually Mock me and laugh at me:

You do not have a College Education, how did you get the Job you have…”

The People who have said things like this to me, and even worse things, Most of them, have never worked one day of their life in their Degree Field.

They get a Liberal Arts Degree, or: Philosophy, Psychology, Geology, Spanish, English, Literature, etc…, Degrees that are Not marketable. Or Degrees that require follow up education, they cannot afford, they have to have before they can get a job.

These people are working at Starbucks, a Gym, at Grocery Stores, at Gas Stations, at Fast Food Restaurants, etc…, some for minimum wage. Their ages are: 24, 27, in their 30’s, 40’s even older. They have huge Chips on their Shoulders because of their “Education.”

It is Impossible in Life to Not Come Across these Rude, Arrogant, Smug People.

At Social Gatherings They Always have to Tell you in their First Conversation with You that They Went to MIT, Stanford, College, whichever college they went to.

They Ask You: “What College did You Go to?”

You Reply: “I am in the Navy I work in Advanced Electronics, in the Aviation Field.”

They Reply: “OK, so You have No College. You should have Just said that. I Did Not Ask You what your Job was…”

YES They are That Rude and Short with People. They Do Not Want to Associate with People who they Think are Below them. People without a College Degree they have No Time For. They Give You a Smug Look and Walk Away.

This Type of Arrogant / Smug / Rude Person Hates the Military. They DO NOT RESPECT A MILITARY CAREER / EDUCATION.

Technical School / Military Education Man Dating a Woman with a College Degree:

I have Dated Women like I mentioned above from meeting them in Church / a Social Event. College Educated Women without a Job and Long away from the time they went to College, especially with Children, they have to Date who they can Find. They really cannot Ignore a man they are Attracted to even if that man Doesn’t have a College Degree. They Need a Guy to Buy them Lunch Dinner whatever they can get from Dating a man who is Making Money. This is just the Reality of it.

Countless Women have Never worked any job in their life after they found out they couldn’t get a job with their Degree. Or they couldn’t get more than minimum wage, or much more than minimum wage.

You will find them at Social Gatherings, at Church, really everywhere. They are the Experts online (Males too.) who brag about how Intelligent they are…

Men Do this too, Live off of Welfare After college just like the Women do I am talking about. They Find a way to Cling to College Educated Women who like having them around. Sometimes it is an Age Gap Relationship a 24 year old man and a 50 year old woman or older. This is Called having a Sugar Mamma / Sugar Mommy.

Yes there are also Sugar Daddy’s. There are a Lot of Different things like this going on for Young men and Young women to have a person Twice or even more than Twice their Age Pay to support them. Sometimes they get Married which is an Age Gap Marriage. 

These Women are the Man in the Relationship. You can Find out about them online by Typing Women who want FBoys. In short Thousands of College Educated Women will Seek Out College Educated, Stay at Home Men, to Be the Woman in the Relationship. The Woman is Dominate, while the Man is Submissive and will Take Care of All of her Desires. 

****Note**** There are Thousands of Men and Women that Get College Educations that they Never use and Find Men and Women who will Pay their Way plus they take All of the Money they Can Get off of Welfare.

Dating Arrogant / Smug Women who are like this is a Task.

It is Impossible, so I stopped dating Women like this. They Hated me for the Income I made.

Typical Comments I have Gotten:

It is Beyond me how you make so much Money, without a College Degree. I spent over 6 years in College and I found out even if I worked 10 years in my Field I would Not make over $40,000.00 a year. So, I decided it was Not Worth it to even try to get a job…”

“I have tried for 4 years to get a job above minimum wage in my Degree Field. You didn’t EVEN Go to College and You make a lot more than I thought I could make with my College Degree. That is NOT RIGHT. THE BEST I CAN DO (Best Money she can Make.) IS WORK AS A WAITRESS!!!” 

Millions of Men and Women with a College degree are Living off of Welfare, having Never Worked 1 day at a Job. They refuse to Work for the pay they can get. They are Angry and Full of Pride. “My Degree is Worthless…”

They Live off of Other People’s Taxes. Yet they themselves Feel Superior to the TaxPayers paying for their Welfare. The Single Mothers have Kids. They are Living off of the Welfare system. And off of the money they get from their Kids Dads… 

I have personally known Dozens of women like this. Housing Projects all across the USA are Filled with Women just like this. College Educated Women. The Stereotype is that this type of Living is Only for uneducated women of Color. No College Women of all Races Live like this. 

Beyond the comments I have mentioned, the Daily Behavior, Disdain these Women showed me was Rude, Sarcastic, Very Vocal, Toxic, etc…,

I cannot properly express it here. I do not know why they thought they could keep behaving like this towards me without me breaking up with them… None of them wanted to Break-Up with me. I guess they have known other men that would stay with them while being treated like this.

You Do Not Need a College Education to Get a High Paying Job:

With Several Years of Military Education and with my Military Experience I was hired by Top Technology Manufacturers for jobs that Required, a Master’s Degree.

Going to a Trade School is much more Valuable than having Most College Degrees.

Many times an Employer will pay for your Trade School. Men and Women can check Trade Schools out and Discover that they can Interview with an Employer and wind up having the Employer pay their Entire Trade School Bill as long as they successfully complete the training and work for them for a minimum amount of time. It is different with each Employer, 4 years is typical. You can find these offers by going to Job Fairs, while you are in High School. Many times you need to be under 30 years old to get these type of Employer paid offers.

Having a College Degree is Not an Indication of Intelligence, of Income level.

If you are a Christian I would not go to College:

Christian Colleges are NO Different than Secular Colleges. They are one and the same. Actually they are worse because they push Counterfeit Christianity.

If you are a Christian then the World, will Not Listen to what you have to Say Because they Mock, Laugh at, Hate Jesus / Christians.

John 15:18 If the world hate you, ye know that it hated me before it hated you. 19 If ye were of the world, the world would love his own: but because ye are not of the world, but I have chosen you out of the world, therefore the world hateth you. 20 Remember the word that I said unto you, The servant is not greater than his lord. If they have persecuted me, they will also persecute you; if they have kept my saying, they will keep yours also. 21 But all these things will they do unto you for my name’s sake, because they know not him that sent me. 22 If I had not come and spoken unto them, they had not had sin: but now they have no cloke for their sin. 23 He that hateth me hateth my Father also. 24 If I had not done among them the works which none other man did, they had not had sin: but now have they both seen and hated both me and my Father.

1st Corinthians 1:18 For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is the power of God.

Colossians 2:8 Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition of men, after the rudiments of the world, and not after Christ.

It is Arrogant to put Scholar Next to Your name. A Scholar is supposed to be an Expert in their Field. “The Authority” on a Subject.

No one is an Expert, a Scholar at Anything.

There are Experienced Professionals in All Fields which is far different from being an Expert, a Scholar.

The difference between an Experienced Professional and a Scholar is a Scholar is Supposed to KNOW EVERYTHING in their Profession.

A Scholar is: “Without Peer in their Profession” “What they say Cannot be Questioned” “They have Infinite Knowledge and Expertise in their Profession” etc…

Yes, this is the True Definition of a Scholar. You will realize people who call themselves Scholars believe the Dictionary Definition of Scholar if you try to have a conversation with one.

People Today think they are Scholars because of the Internet:

Keyboard Warriors will do a Google, an Internet, search and think that what they Find is the Undisputed Truth.

This is a Funny, an Ignorant Belief especially since if you take the time to look through enough pages of results you will find a lot of differences of opinion on the subject you are researching.

If You are a Christian Watch Your Behavior Everywhere. Do Not Be an Arrogant X-Rated Jerk at Anytime.

The Truth is, “Christians,” (People who CLAIM to be Christians) are No Better at being Civil online, even at times in person, then anyone else.

In Today’s world of Internet Keyboard Experts, it is Nearly Impossible to have an Adult Conversation with Anyone who Disagrees with You.

People Just want One-Way Conversations.

They ONLY want Positive comments to what they say. They Cannot Handle it when someone Disagrees with Them. They Lose Their Minds when someone is Critical of what They are Saying. They will TELL YOU OFF, if you write something they Disagree with. Then they will Block you so you cannot reply to their Unhinged Rant. They have to have the LAST WORD.

****Note**** The Internet, TV, is Not Safe for Children. Parents Need to put a Filter on their Children’s Internet Devices, the Internet is X-Rated. Parents Be Parents. Supervise Your Children at All times. If you are Not there, with them, have a Trustworthy Adult Always with them to Protect and Supervise Your Children. No Excuses!!!!

Do Not Waste Your Life. Satan wants to Cause People to Waste Their Lives. Please Do Not Waste Your Life:

Some Ways People Waste their Lives:

1: Fighting Useless Fights of All Types. Physical Fights. Verbal Fights. Internal Fights. Fighting on the Internet.

James 4:1 From whence come wars and fightings among you? come they not hence, even of your lusts that war in your members? 2 Ye lust, and have not: ye kill, and desire to have, and cannot obtain: ye fight and war, yet ye have not, because ye ask not. 3 Ye ask, and receive not, because ye ask amiss, that ye may consume it upon your lusts. 4 Ye adulterers and adulteresses, know ye not that the friendship of the world is enmity with God? whosoever therefore will be a friend of the world is the enemy of God. 5 Do ye think that the scripture saith in vain, The spirit that dwelleth in us lusteth to envy? 6 But he giveth more grace. Wherefore he saith, God resisteth the proud, but giveth grace unto the humble. 7 Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you. 8 Draw nigh to God, and he will draw nigh to you. Cleanse your hands, ye sinners; and purify your hearts, ye double minded. 9 Be afflicted, and mourn, and weep: let your laughter be turned to mourning, and your joy to heaviness. 10 Humble yourselves in the sight of the Lord, and he shall lift you up.

1st Peter 5:8 Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour: 9 Whom resist stedfast in the faith, knowing that the same afflictions are accomplished in your brethren that are in the world. 10 But the God of all grace, who hath called us unto his eternal glory by Christ Jesus, after that ye have suffered a while, make you perfect, stablish, strengthen, settle you. 11 To him be glory and dominion for ever and ever. Amen.

John 10:10 The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly.

2: On A Worthless Education

Jesus Disciples they were Not College Educated. They Received their Jewish / Christian Education from their Parents and from Jesus.

Acts 4:13 Now when they saw the boldness of Peter and John, and perceived that they were unlearned and ignorant men, they marvelled; and they took knowledge of them, that they had been with Jesus.

It is important to Recognize that in Acts 4:13 the Slanted, Slanderous, Opinion of the Sadducees and the Pharisee’s is the Opinion in this verse. They are Arrogant and are Highly Proud of their “College Educations.” They each had Many Years of Formal Jewish Religious Education that Today would be Validated with College Degrees.

Simply Put Peter and John were Not Rabbi’s by their Standards so to them they were, “Unlearned and Ignorant Men.” This is Far from the Truth though. They like all of the other Disciples had been taught the Scriptures from their Youth. When Jesus Called them to be his Disciples they were All Looking for the Promised Messiah. They were Educated, All of them. They had the Best Possible College Degrees being Taught by Jesus for 3 and a half years.

A Christian Pastor, Evangelist, Preacher Doesn’t Need to Go to a Christian College to be Qualified for their Positions in a Church.

It is Best to have a Pastor that Has Not Been to a Christian College.

3: Lusting.

Matthew 5:28 – But I say unto you, That whosoever looketh on a woman to lust after her hath committed adultery with her already in his heart.

Galatians 5:16 – This I say then, Walk in the Spirit, and ye shall not fulfil the lust of the flesh.

1 Corinthians 6:18 – Flee fornication. Every sin that a man doeth is without the body; but he that committeth fornication sinneth against his own body.

1 John 2:16 – For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world.

Lusting is a Strong Overwhelming Obsession. Lust is an All Consuming Desire that People Waste their Lives on.

How To Be Saved:

Believe the Gospel Only to Be Saved:

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

Acts 16:27 And the keeper of the prison awaking out of his sleep, and seeing the prison doors open, he drew out his sword, and would have killed himself, supposing that the prisoners had been fled. 28 But Paul cried with a loud voice, saying, Do thyself no harm: for we are all here. 29 Then he called for a light, and sprang in, and came trembling, and fell down before Paul and Silas, 30 And brought them out, and said, Sirs, what must I do to be saved? 31 And they said, Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved, and thy house.

1st Corinthians 15:1-4, The Gospel, Has A Warning: “Unless Ye Have Believed In Vain.” What Does Believing In Vain Mean?

“Unless Ye Have Believed In Vain.” What Does Believing In Vain Mean?

Biblical Christian Salvation is to Believe The Gospel Only to be Saved. If You Add Anything to, or Subtract Anything from the Gospel (1st Corinthians 15:1-4.) You are Not Saved. Because You Have Not Believed The Gospel Only for Your 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:

What Does it mean to Believe in Vain?

A Vain Belief in the Gospel is to Add Works to the Gospel or to Subtract Something from it.

To Subtract any of the following: “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:”

If Your Belief is that You have to REPENT OF SIN to be Saved than your Belief is In Vain. It is In Vain because REPENT OF SIN is NOT PART OF THE GOSPEL.

REPENT OF SIN IS NOT IN THE BIBLE. REPENT OF SIN IS A FALSE GOSPEL.

People Go to Hell Because they would Rather Believe the Lies they Hear in their Church, on TV, on the Radio, on their Computer etc…, than to Believe what the Bible Plainly Says.

Salvation is a Personal Choice. Salvation is a Personal Decision.

Do, Not Let Your Father, Your Mother, Your Brother, Your Sister ANYONE, Drag YOU to HELL / THE LAKE OF FIRE with them.

Other Examples of what Believing In Vain is:

Your Doctor Tells you: “The, Garlic you are eating is Killing You. Stop Eating Garlic and You will Be Healed. The Only Way to Be Saved from Death is to Stop Eating Garlic Your Doctor Repeats… (Stop Trusting in Your own Works, Eating Garlic, Believe Jesus and Be Saved from Death / Hell.)

An In Vain Belief is to Not Completely Trust in Jesus Only to Save You. To Add Works to the Gospel.

In the Above Example the Patient Does Not Believe the Doctor completely. He thinks… “Well, Everyone I know Eats Garlic…, I think I am Just eating too much Garlic so what I will Do is be careful to reduce the Garlic I eat. I will eat half as much Garlic from Now On and this will Save me…”

Adding Garlic / Works to Salvation

Repent of Sin, Water Baptism, Obeying the Sabbath, Penance, Saying the Rosary, Believing You can Lose Your Salvation, Trusting in Church Membership, Trusting in the Apostle’s Creed, Trusting in anything other than the Gospel Only for Your Salvation is to Believe In Vain.

Believing In Vain From the Collins Dictionary:

in vain

Phrase

If you say that something such as someone’s deathsuffering, or effort was in vain, you mean that it was useless because it did not achieve anything.

He wants the world to know his son did not die in vain. His Son’s Life was Productive, Valuable, had Worth, etc…”

****NOTE**** In Vain, Universally means: A Useless Belief. A Useless Effort. Or Just Simply Useless.

In Vain: “There is a large hole in a tire. Trying to pump it up with air is a Useless Effort.”

Trying to Clean Dirty Laundry with Muddy Water.”

Believed In Vain, is Not Hard to Understand. Salvation is Not Hard to Understand. How to be Saved is Not a Mystery.

In Anything Other than Christianity People who only have a 3rd Grade Education level will Immediately Understand what In Vain Means when they are given an example of it.

Over and Over Again in Movies, on TV Shows, in Books, etc…, People will understand what In Vain Means from just watching TV or from Reading.

A Perfect Example of doing something IN VAIN is in the Classic Novel Great Expectations by Charles Dickens.

The main Character Pip Tries IN VAIN to Win the Love of Estella. Pip tries for Decades. In the Novel Estella is the same age as Pip, 10 years old, when they meet for the 1st time.

Pip met Estella at Miss Havisham’s home. Miss Havisham Hates Men Because on her Wedding Day her Groom Never Showed up to Marry her. She was Forever Embarrassed by him. This Caused An Undying Hatred in her for Men. She Raised Estella (She Carefully Taught, Trained Estella in Every Imaginable Way) to be Cruel to Men. Estella was taught the art of Seduction…

Estella caused Men to Fall in Love with her and then she would be Unloving, Uncaring and Cruel to them. Miss Havisham took the Greatest Pleasure in this.

Pip and Estella Grew up Together. He was Told Countless Times by Miss Havisham and by Estella that she would Never Love him, that she would Only Break his Heart… Pip wasted his Life In Vain Attempting to get Estella to Marry him to Fall in Love with him.

You might find a Publisher’s update to the Book, and Movie / Versions with a Happy Ending. In those Versions: In the Novel a Few paragraphs are added to the end that is intended to give the Novel a Happy Ending. At the end of the Movie. The Movie Versions will usually have a Brief Scene Decades later where they wind up Together. They will be middle aged…, or older.

This is One Novel I have read a few times, with the Alternate Ending Added After the Charles Dickens Ending. Titled “This is the Publishers Alternate Ending.” So you read the Entire Book and After you have read it there is a Page with the above Title followed by a Page and a half of the Alternate Ending that Does Not Fit the Novel at All. It is like Watching The James Cameron Movie Titanic All the way Through and Seeing Jack Die than have this happen:

Decades Later Jack finds Rose they meet again and Live Happily Ever After in a Very Brief 2 or 3 minute additional scene… If you buy this type of thing I deeply Question your Sanity. Seriously you saw Jack Freeze to Death and Fall Beneath the Water… You saw him Die…

There have Been Countless other Movies / Books about People Trying to Do the Impossible, Doing Something In Vain.

At the End of the Movie / Book: “My Husband Lived his Life In Vain. He was Obsessed with Finding Oil on this Land. He Bought this land for almost Nothing Because People Tried for over 20 years to Drill for Oil here and they All went Bankrupt. The Oil Rig finally Killed him after 30 years…”

The Point I am making is it is Not Hard for Hollywood to show people what In Vain means.

People have the Mental Capacity to understand what In Vain means but when they Read it in 1st Corinthians Chapter 15 they Completely (99.9%) miss the meaning of In Vain here.

Or they just Reject Every Scripture that goes against what they were taught, which is the Truth for most people I have this Conversation with.

They will say something like: “I have Believed The Gospel Only to Be Saved. But I Also Believe that you Have to Repent of Sin to Be Saved…”

If You think like this You are just Lying to Yourself.

This Behavior, way of thinking, believing, is Not an Accident it is Spiritual Blindness. This Happens with People who have Rejected the Gospel as the Only Way to Heaven.

These People will Repeatedly Say: “I Believe the Entire Gospel. I Believe Jesus Is the ONLY way to Heaven. But You will Go to Hell if you Do Not Repent of your Sins…”

REPENT OF SIN is Not part of the Gospel. REPENT OF SIN is Not in the Bible.

If You are Someone who Thinks You are Saved because You are Trusting in the REPENT OF SIN, FALSE GOSPEL, or Something Else Besides the Gospel ONLY than Your Belief is IN VAIN.

You are Trusting in Yourself to get into Heaven. You Have NEVER BELIEVED THE GOSPEL.

The Gospel:

Belief is All or Nothing.

A Breakdown of 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:

1: The Gospel has to be Received. Meaning Just Hearing the Gospel and knowing All of the Words Does Not Save You. You have to Receive it / Believe it. Received the Gospel means you heard it, You understood it and you Accepted it Completely. So Simply put to Receive the Gospel means you have Believed the Entire Gospel without Adding Anything to it.

2: Believing the Gospel is How a Person is Saved.

3: Believing In Vain means you Either Do Not Believe the Entire Gospel or You are Adding to 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;

In verse 1 the Apostle Paul is speaking to a crowd of People who are Followers of Jesus. We know this because he uses the word Brethren. Like ALL Good Preachers he Doesn’t Assume that Everyone he is speaking to is Saved, a True Follower of Jesus. The purpose for his speech is to Ensure that Everyone Present has Understood his Preaching on the Gospel.

Verse 2 makes this Clear:

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

By which also ye are saved, if: IF, IF, IF… IF is such a Huge Word!!!

Paul is Repeating his Previous Preaching to this Church . (Paul as a Missionary traveled from Church to Church. He had Previously Preached at this Church and he mentions this. Obviously he makes Sure to Always Preach the Gospel Each time. Here in 1st Corinthians 15:1-4 Paul is making it as Clear as Possible that a Person is ONLY SAVED by Believing in the Gospel ONLY. Any Other Belief is IN VAIN. To Trust in ANYTHING OTHER THAN THE Complete Gospel is an IN VAIN BELIEF, that will Not Save You.)

The IF: if you keep in memory what I preached unto you… So Paul wants them to think about his Previous Gospel Message he had Preached to them the last time he was there.

Paul warns them that they are NOT SAVED, (IF… YE HAVE BELIEVED IN VAIN. If they are NOT TRUSTING ONLY THE GOSPEL TO SAVE THEMSELVES.)

So Finally Paul Repeats the Gospel which he had Previously Preached unto them in verses 3 and 4.

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:

You have a Choice to Believe the Gospel ONLY and Be Eternally Saved or Reject the Gospel and Go to Hell / The Lake of Fire For Eternity.

Holding to any other Way to Heaven is to have Believed In Vain.

Believed In Vain is Trusting in Anything Other than the Gospel Only to Save You.

Believing in Jesus to be Saved is Not a Test of Your Faith.

False Teachers will Try to Destroy Your Belief in the Gospel to Save You by Telling You:

You Must Have Saving Faith… They Falsely Claim that You must have a Certain amount of Faith to Believe.

The Bible Does Not Teach this.

The Thief on the Cross was Saved by Simply Believing on Jesus he Asked Jesus to Save him:

Luke 23:42 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.

As soon as You Believe the Gospel Only to Save You than you are Immediately Saved.

The Thief on the Cross: “Lord, Remember Me…

Jesus: “To day shalt thou be with me in paradise.”

This is Salvation as Plain and Clear as Possible.

Notice Jesus Did Not say: “No. You Cannot Be Saved because You Never Lived a Christian Life. You Never Repented of Your Sins…

Jesus Did Not Question his Faith!!!!

The Entire Passage.

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.

Another Example:

Acts 16:27 And the keeper of the prison awaking out of his sleep, and seeing the prison doors open, he drew out his sword, and would have killed himself, supposing that the prisoners had been fled. 28 But Paul cried with a loud voice, saying, Do thyself no harm: for we are all here. 29 Then he called for a light, and sprang in, and came trembling, and fell down before Paul and Silas, 30 And brought them out, and said, Sirs, what must I do to be saved? 31 And they said, Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved, and thy house.

Salvation is Simple. It is Not a Test of Your Faith. It is Not Anything that You have Done. It is Simply Believing the Gospel Only to Be Saved. Trusting in Jesus Only to Save You.

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.

Hosea Chapter 4 Explained. Lazy “Christians” Lack Knowledge, Are Biblically Ignorant

Lack of Knowledge: “Christians” Are Lazy and Ignorant. 99% Do Not Read Their Bibles Let Alone Study Their Bibles.

Every day I make “Christians” Angry Because I call them out for being Biblically Ignorant / Illiterate. They have No Personal Bible Knowledge. They Do Not read their Bible’s and it is Painfully Obvious. They Only Know what they have Heard in Church on TV, on YouTube etc…

Hosea 4:6 My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge: because thou hast rejected knowledge, I will also reject thee, that thou shalt be no priest to me: seeing thou hast forgotten the law of thy God, I will also forget thy children.

This Verse is Very, Very, Very Powerful. It is God telling us that People who reject Knowledge God’s Word. God Will Reject. ****NOTE**** This Verse is Not about Keeping the Law. God called the Holy Scriptures the Law.

Falsely Claiming You are Ignorant, Lacking Knowledge, Will Not Keep You Out of Hell. According to God / the Bible, Mankind, each and Every Individual Person is In Either of One of Two Conditions: Saved or Lost:

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.

Condition 1) Verse 18 Is Clear: Everyone who has Not Believed on Jesus, Believed the Gospel Only for their Salvation, is Lost Going to Hell: they are CONDEMNED ALREADY!!! This is what the Bible says.

Condition 2) Verse 18: He that believeth on him is not condemned: (IS SAVED IS GOING TO HEAVEN!!!) Salvation is Belief on Jesus.

The Bible is Not Hard to UNDERSTAND. It is written in Plain Language.

Everyone has a Decision to Make: Either, Believe on Jesus and Go to Heaven or Reject Jesus and Go to Hell. Again Claiming You Are Ignorant, Lacking Knowledge Will Not Keep You Out of Hell.

The Gospel Defines Belief in Jesus: Everyone who Believes the Gospel Only for their Salvation without Adding Works to it Will Go to Heaven. (Works are Anything you Add to Salvation. Like Repent of Sin which is Not in the Bible.)

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:

There is No Excuse, No Reason to Go to Hell. People are Willfully Ignorant, they Lack Knowlege Because They Refuse to Read the Bible. They Refuse to Listen to the Truth. People Go to Hell Because they Reject The Gospel. They Reject Jesus

People Falsely Think the Word Ignorant, is a Swear Word. They Immediately become Very Angry and Hostile when their Ignorance is Revealed / Exposed, and they are called Ignorant because of the things they say.

People are Generally Very Ignorant. “Christians” are Very Ignorant and Very Easily, Triggered, Offended. It takes Nothing more than to tell them they are Wrong and that they are Biblically Ignorant / Illiterate to Set them Off. They start to Reveal their True Selves. They are Hateful. They Swear at me and even have Threatened to Kill me.

Typical Replies I have gotten Numerous Times: “I Hope You Die Alone the Most Painful Death Possible.” “Where do You Live. I will Shut You Up!

These Counterfeit Christians have Satan Living inside of them. They Hate People Who Know the Bible and who Expose them for their Lies, for their Lack of Knowledge, for being Ignorant. They Hate being Called Ignorant because it is True. and they cannot Defend themselves because they Do Not Know What they are Talking About.

Hosea 4:6 My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge: because thou hast rejected knowledge, I will also reject thee, that thou shalt be no priest to me: seeing thou hast forgotten the law of thy God, I will also forget thy children.

Hosea 4:6 Is a Go to Verse for Hell Fire and Damnation Preachers, for Many Evangelists.

Most People who Attend KJV Only IFB, Independent Fundamentalist Baptist Churches are Very Familiar with this Verse and many others like it. This verse is Familiar to a lot of Christians. But It doesn’t Do anything to Drive them to Read and Study their Bible’s Independently.

I was in IFB Baptist Churches for over 10 years. So, I am Painfully Familiar with them. Even in these Very Strict Legalistic IFB Churches Only around 10% Faithfully read their Bibles. None Properly Study their Bibles. What they call Bible Study is to Follow a Bible Commentary. There is Nothing wrong with Reading a Bible Commentary for Reference, but that is Not Bible Study.

Bible Study is:

You the Bible, the Holy Spirit of God and a Strong’s Exhaustive Bible Concordance / Cross-Reference. This is All you need and All you should use to Study the Bible. Most Bible Commentaries are Corrupt written by Lost Calvinists. People who Call themselves Bible Scholars. Noone is a Bible Scholar. A Scholar is an Expert on a Subject. Not One Person has Mastered the Bible, is an Expert on the Bible.

Jesus when he taught his Disciples, he would Often use Parables.

Jesus had to Explain his Parables because the Disciples wouldn’t understand them. Most of the time he would explain them fully. Other times he would say that he wasn’t going to explain the Parable.

Sometimes when he would teach without Parables the Disciples still would Not Understand. Often Jesus would be upset at them for Not Understanding.

Jesus was upset because they didn’t Understand because they Lacked the Faith Required to Understand. On Some things Jesus would say that it was Impossible for them to Understand because, the Human Mind just could Not Comprehend it.

Mark 9:32 But they understood not that saying, and were afraid to ask him.

I Often find Jesus 12 Disciples very Funny in a lot of ways.

They Argued a lot among themselves. Their behavior at times was very Immature. Their Fear of Jesus in the Above Verse was because they were Ashamed of being Ignorant. Ashamed for Not Knowing the things Jesus had Taught to them, the things Jesus Expected them to Know.

They Did Not want to look Ignorant to Jesus. Jesus Frequently Scolded them for Not Remembering the things that he had already taught them. And for Not Understanding things he expected them to be able to Understand.

The 12 Disciples were Fully Grown Adults, but they Often behaved like Children.

Jesus was 30 years old when he called the 12 Disciples. I Believe that All of Jesus’s Disciples were at least 30 years Old. Because Jesus did Not Start his Earthly Ministry until he was 30 years Old.

It doesn’t make any sense to me that Jesus’s Disciples would have been younger than him. Because the Reason Jesus did Not start his Earthly Ministry until he was 30 was because 29 was too Young for Jesus to be a Respected Rabbi.

30 was Obviously the correct Age for Jesus to be a Rabbi, a Teacher, that would have received the Proper Attention and Respect. Looking at the Jewish Culture at that time, it would have been hard for a man Younger than 30 to command the Respect and the Attention of the Jewish Population as an Experienced Knowledgeable Rabbi.

The ages of Jesus 12 Disciples are Not given.

The Historical information on their ages is pure Speculation. Very Bad Speculation at that, from Lost people that are Biblically Ignorant. Bible Historians are Not Christians they are purely Academics. I could Not find anything Credible on the Ages of the Disciples when they were called to be Disciples by Jesus.

I will stand by my Belief that Jesus Disciples were All at least 30 years old when Jesus called them. Jesus Called them to be Part of his Ministry. Since Jesus started his Ministry at 30 years Old, I doubt he would have Chosen Disciples that were Younger than himself because they were supposed to be Preachers, and Teachers like himself that would be Listened to.

Many Ignorant Academics have written that the Disciples were mostly a bunch of Teenagers with some being in their Early 20’s. This is a completely unfounded Insane Conclusion Not based on anything Factual.

Jesus Teaching in the Temple when he was 12 Years Old:

Luke 2:39 And when they had performed all things according to the law of the Lord, they returned into Galilee, to their own city Nazareth. 40 And the child grew, and waxed strong in spirit, filled with wisdom: and the grace of God was upon him. 41 Now his parents went to Jerusalem every year at the feast of the passover. 42 And when he was twelve years old, they went up to Jerusalem after the custom of the feast. 43 And when they had fulfilled the days, as they returned, the child Jesus tarried behind in Jerusalem; and Joseph and his mother knew not of it. 44 But they, supposing him to have been in the company, went a day’s journey; and they sought him among their kinsfolk and acquaintance. 45 And when they found him not, they turned back again to Jerusalem, seeking him. 46 And it came to pass, that after three days they found him in the temple, sitting in the midst of the doctors, both hearing them, and asking them questions. 47 And all that heard him were astonished at his understanding and answers. 48 And when they saw him, they were amazed: and his mother said unto him, Son, why hast thou thus dealt with us? behold, thy father and I have sought thee sorrowing. 49 And he said unto them, How is it that ye sought me? wist ye not that I must be about my Father’s business? 50 And they understood not the saying which he spake unto them. 51 And he went down with them, and came to Nazareth, and was subject unto them: but his mother kept all these sayings in her heart. 52 And Jesus increased in wisdom and stature, and in favour with God and man.

Here in Luke Chapter 2 Jesus was 12 years Old Teaching in the Temple.

Mary and Joseph, they were Fearful for Jesus because of his age and Obvious Knowledge and Wisdom. They Knew it would be Very Dangerous for Jesus to Keep Teaching in Public at his Young Age.

The Fact that Jesus Started his Ministry at the Age of 30 is an Indication that he couldn’t have Started his Public Ministry any Younger. Jesus wanted to Start his Public Ministry at the Age of 12 but God the Father Clearly Said No to this. Jesus was Eager to Fulfill his Earthy Ministry that is Clear.

To be Listened to by a Jewish Audience you couldn’t be a child, a teenager or in your early 20’s. A Rabbi needs to have enough age and Experience to be able to Back up what he says. Even Jesus who was 30-33 1/2 years Old during his Earthly Ministry was Questioned for being such an Authoritative Speaking Rabbi at such a Young Age.

People were Astounded at Jesus’s Teaching with the Authority that he Possessed.

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.

The Power and the Authority with which Jesus Spoke and Taught was Amazing to Behold.

It Brought a Lot of Attention to Jesus that he did not want. The Younger Jesus would have Been the more Attention he would have Stirred up and the More Controversy.

Jesus Starting his Earthly Ministry at the age of 30 was not an Arbitrary Decision by God the Father.

For the Masses to Believe the Truth and to Receive the Knowledge that Jesus had to give through his Preaching and Teaching the Ignorant Masses Needed to see Jesus as a Respectable Rabbi worth Listening to. Lack of Age means Lack of Experience and Lack of Authority to the vast Majority of People.

With Age comes Wisdom, Knowledge, and Experience. Most people give more weight to what someone says if they are Old enough to have been well Educated, and to have had some Experience in Life. It is Really Difficult to Break Through to willfully Ignorant people. The Majority of the People Jesus was trying to Reach were very Stubborn and Ignorant people.

Jesus Declares He is the Promised Messiah:

In Luke Chapter 4 Jesus Said, in the Temple, he is the Promised Messiah. Jesus spoke to Ignorant people Lacking Knowledge. He Reads from the Scriptures and Said this is Talking about me.

Jesus’s Earthly Ministry with All of his Amazing Miracles they were Done to Prove that he was the Promised Messiah from the Scriptures. Anyone who was a Witness to Jesus’s Miracles would have Realized that Jesus was the Promised Messiah because they had Learned about the Promised Messiah from the Holy Scriptures.

Being Ignorant and Lacking Knowledge is a Decision. It Happens to Lazy people who Refuse to Read and Study the Bible for themselves. Ignorant People who Refuse to Listen to the Truth.

Luke 4:16 And he came to Nazareth, where he had been brought up: and, as his custom was, he went into the synagogue on the sabbath day, and stood up for to read. 17 And there was delivered unto him the book of the prophet Esaias. And when he had opened the book, he found the place where it was written, 18 The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he hath anointed me to preach the gospel to the poor; he hath sent me to heal the brokenhearted, to preach deliverance to the captives, and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty them that are bruised, 19 To preach the acceptable year of the Lord. 20 And he closed the book, and he gave it again to the minister, and sat down. And the eyes of all them that were in the synagogue were fastened on him. 21 And he began to say unto them, This day is this scripture fulfilled in your ears. 22 And all bare him witness, and wondered at the gracious words which proceeded out of his mouth. And they said, Is not this Joseph’s son? 23 And he said unto them, Ye will surely say unto me this proverb, Physician, heal thyself: whatsoever we have heard done in Capernaum, do also here in thy country. 24 And he said, Verily I say unto you, No prophet is accepted in his own country. 25 But I tell you of a truth, many widows were in Israel in the days of Elias, when the heaven was shut up three years and six months, when great famine was throughout all the land; 26 But unto none of them was Elias sent, save unto Sarepta, a city of Sidon, unto a woman that was a widow. 27 And many lepers were in Israel in the time of Eliseus the prophet; and none of them was cleansed, saving Naaman the Syrian. 28 And all they in the synagogue, when they heard these things, were filled with wrath, 29 And rose up, and thrust him out of the city, and led him unto the brow of the hill whereon their city was built, that they might cast him down headlong. 30 But he passing through the midst of them went his way, 31 And came down to Capernaum, a city of Galilee, and taught them on the sabbath days. 32 And they were astonished at his doctrine: for his word was with power.

This Passage is Extremely Important. People Falsely Claim that Jesus was Just a common Teacher that He Wasn’t the Promised Messiah, that He Did Not Ever Say that he was the Promised Messiah. Well, Right here Jesus is Declaring Himself God The Promised Messiah.

There is Alot to Digest from this Passage. Jesus went back to his Hometown of Nazareth. He was Rejected. The People Rose up to Murder him. This Anger is From Satan.

Today, Right Now, You will see this same Hatred and Anger in Ignorant People who Hate to Hear the name of Jesus. People who Refuse to Hear the Truth. These People are Willfully Ignorant People.

The Pharisees and the Sadducee’s Attack Jesus:

The below Passage is Exposing, their Lack of Knowledge, the Ignorant Understanding they have of the Scriptures.

John 9:13 They brought to the Pharisees him that aforetime was blind. 14 And it was the sabbath day when Jesus made the clay, and opened his eyes. 15 Then again the Pharisees also asked him how he had received his sight. He said unto them, He put clay upon mine eyes, and I washed, and do see. 16 Therefore said some of the Pharisees, This man is not of God, because he keepeth not the sabbath day. Others said, How can a man that is a sinner do such miracles? And there was a division among them. 17 They say unto the blind man again, What sayest thou of him, that he hath opened thine eyes? He said, He is a prophet. 18 But the Jews did not believe concerning him, that he had been blind, and received his sight, until they called the parents of him that had received his sight. 19 And they asked them, saying, Is this your son, who ye say was born blind? how then doth he now see? 20 His parents answered them and said, We know that this is our son, and that he was born blind: 21 But by what means he now seeth, we know not; or who hath opened his eyes, we know not: he is of age; ask him: he shall speak for himself. 22 These words spake his parents, because they feared the Jews: for the Jews had agreed already, that if any man did confess that he was Christ, he should be put out of the synagogue. 23 Therefore said his parents, He is of age; ask him. 24 Then again called they the man that was blind, and said unto him, Give God the praise: we know that this man is a sinner. 25 He answered and said, Whether he be a sinner or no, I know not: one thing I know, that, whereas I was blind, now I see. 26 Then said they to him again, What did he to thee? how opened he thine eyes? 27 He answered them, I have told you already, and ye did not hear: wherefore would ye hear it again? will ye also be his disciples?

Verse 27 is Very Powerful.

The Pharisees and the Sadducee’s, the Jewish Leaders, Countless People Just Simply Refuse to Listen to Anything that Goes Against what they Already Believe. They would Rather be Ignorant then to Believe on Jesus and to accept The Truth, The Gospel.

This type of Closed Mindedness is an Epidemic Today. People who are Willfully Ignorant Refuse to Listen to the Truth because they are Know it All’s. They Hate Jesus. They Have Made up their Minds to Reject Jesus.

27 He answered them, I have told you already, and ye did not hear: wherefore would ye hear it again? will ye also be his disciples?

This Verse is so Powerful and the ones following it too. They show the Boldness of the Blind Man that Jesus Healed and his Complete Frustration with the Pharisees and the Sadducee’s. He directly Called them Out for being the Frauds and Liars that they are.

28 Then they reviled him, and said, Thou art his disciple; but we are Moses’ disciples. 29 We know that God spake unto Moses: as for this fellow, we know not from whence he is. 30 The man answered and said unto them, Why herein is a marvellous thing, that ye know not from whence he is, and yet he hath opened mine eyes. 31 Now we know that God heareth not sinners: but if any man be a worshipper of God, and doeth his will, him he heareth. 32 Since the world began was it not heard that any man opened the eyes of one that was born blind. 33 If this man were not of God, he could do nothing. 34 They answered and said unto him, Thou wast altogether born in sins, and dost thou teach us? And they cast him out.

False Teachers are from Satan. They Immediately Shut Down the Truth and Get Angry, Hostile because they DO NOT WANT PEOPLE TO HEAR THE TRUTH.

Jesus Tells the Blind Man How to Be Saved:

35 Jesus heard that they had cast him out; and when he had found him, he said unto him, Dost thou believe on the Son of God? 36 He answered and said, Who is he, Lord, that I might believe on him? 37 And Jesus said unto him, Thou hast both seen him, and it is he that talketh with thee. 38 And he said, Lord, I believe. And he worshipped him. 39 And Jesus said, For judgment I am come into this world, that they which see not might see; and that they which see might be made blind. 40 And some of the Pharisees which were with him heard these words, and said unto him, Are we blind also? 41 Jesus said unto them, If ye were blind, ye should have no sin: but now ye say, We see; therefore your sin remaineth.

Jesus Taught the Gospel to his Disciples:

Mark 9:30 And they departed thence, and passed through Galilee; and he would not that any man should know it. 31 For he taught his disciples, and said unto them, The Son of man is delivered into the hands of men, and they shall kill him; and after that he is killed, he shall rise the third day. 32 But they understood not that saying, and were afraid to ask him. 33 And he came to Capernaum: and being in the house he asked them, What was it that ye disputed among yourselves by the way? 34 But they held their peace: for by the way they had disputed among themselves, who should be the greatest. 35 And he sat down, and called the twelve, and saith unto them, If any man desire to be first, the same shall be last of all, and servant of all. 36 And he took a child, and set him in the midst of them: and when he had taken him in his arms, he said unto them, 37 Whosoever shall receive one of such children in my name, receiveth me: and whosoever shall receive me, receiveth not me, but him that sent me.

John 14:26 But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you.

Hosea Chapter 4:

Hosea 4:1 Hear the word of the Lord, ye children of Israel: for the Lord hath a controversy with the inhabitants of the land, because there is no truth, nor mercy, nor knowledge of God in the land. 2 By swearing, and lying, and killing, and stealing, and committing adultery, they break out, and blood toucheth blood. 3 Therefore shall the land mourn, and every one that dwelleth therein shall languish, with the beasts of the field, and with the fowls of heaven; yea, the fishes of the sea also shall be taken away. 4 Yet let no man strive, nor reprove another: for thy people are as they that strive with the priest. 5 Therefore shalt thou fall in the day, and the prophet also shall fall with thee in the night, and I will destroy thy mother. 6 My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge: because thou hast rejected knowledge, I will also reject thee, that thou shalt be no priest to me: seeing thou hast forgotten the law of thy God, I will also forget thy children. 7 As they were increased, so they sinned against me: therefore will I change their glory into shame. 8 They eat up the sin of my people, and they set their heart on their iniquity. 9 And there shall be, like people, like priest: and I will punish them for their ways, and reward them their doings. 10 For they shall eat, and not have enough: they shall commit whoredom, and shall not increase: because they have left off to take heed to the Lord. 11 Whoredom and wine and new wine take away the heart. 12 My people ask counsel at their stocks, and their staff declareth unto them: for the spirit of whoredoms hath caused them to err, and they have gone a whoring from under their God. 13 They sacrifice upon the tops of the mountains, and burn incense upon the hills, under oaks and poplars and elms, because the shadow thereof is good: therefore your daughters shall commit whoredom, and your spouses shall commit adultery. 14 I will not punish your daughters when they commit whoredom, nor your spouses when they commit adultery: for themselves are separated with whores, and they sacrifice with harlots: therefore the people that doth not understand shall fall. 15 Though thou, Israel, play the harlot, yet let not Judah offend; and come not ye unto Gilgal, neither go ye up to Beth-aven, nor swear, The Lord liveth. 16 For Israel slideth back as a backsliding heifer: now the Lord will feed them as a lamb in a large place. 17 Ephraim is joined to idols: let him alone. 18 Their drink is sour: they have committed whoredom continually: her rulers with shame do love, Give ye. 19 The wind hath bound her up in her wings, and they shall be ashamed because of their sacrifices.

Hosea Chapter 4 is a Warning from God about being Ignorant of the Holy Scriptures, the Bible, God’s Holy Word. In it God is Telling Everyone if You are Willfully Ignorant and You Refuse to Read and Study the Scriptures You will be Judged for it. This Warning is to Both the Saved and to the Lost. Saved People Christians are Commanded to Read and to Study the Scriptures. God Does Not Want Christians to be Ignorant.

2nd Timothy 2:15

Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.”

Beware: Most Churches Deny Teaching Works For Salvation, But They Do Teach Works.

IFB Baptists, Southern Baptists, Evangelical, Pentecostal, Church of Christ, Church of God, Calvinist Churches, and Other Churches All Teach Works Salvation, Despite the Fact they Deny Teaching Works.

They All Add Works to Salvation. They Deny Teaching Works by Falsely Claiming, what they Add to Salvation is Not Works. When I say All I am meaning Churches with these Titles do Teach Works Salvation. Some IFB Baptist Churches may be Not Teach Works. The I in IFB stands for Independent which means that IFB Independent Fundamental Baptist Churches are supposed to be 100% Independent but most are Not.

They call themselves Independent because they are Not part of the Southern Baptist Convention. They are supposed to be Independent of All other Baptist Churches. But 90+ percent of them are associated with other “Independent Churches” Like Dr. Peter S. Ruckman, Jack Hyles, others. These type of Churches all Follow the same False Teachings.

But there are some Good IFB Churches that Teach the Truth.

Jesus Plus Anything Else Is Not Salvation. It is Works, No Matter what Anyone Says.

They Falsely Deny that Repent of Sin is Works.

First): Repent of Sin is Not in the Bible.

Secondly): Repent / Repentance is Not Defined in the Bible as to Repent of Sin. Every time Repentance, to Repent is mentioned in the Bible it is always about Changing One’s mind. Repentance / Repent in the Bible is Not About Sin.

God Repents in the Bible More than Anyone Else. So, it is Absolutely Clear that Repentance / Repent does Not mean to Repent of Sin.

God Does Not Sin. It is Impossible for God to Sin.

For Example, God Repented, He Changed his mind about:

Genesis 6:5 And God saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every imagination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually. 6 And it repented the Lord that he had made man on the earth, and it grieved him at his heart. 7 And the Lord said, I will destroy man whom I have created from the face of the earth; both man, and beast, and the creeping thing, and the fowls of the air; for it repenteth me that I have made them. 8 But Noah found grace in the eyes of the Lord.

God Repented, he Changed his mind. God was Going to Kill Every Human Being on the Earth. God Changed his mind and he Saved Noah, and his Family.

Ignorant People, Lost Unsaved People, Look at the Bible and Call God an Evil Mass Murderer. What they do Not Understand is Satan caused All of the Evil on the Earth that God had to Destroy to Save his People.

The Reason for the Flood, The Reason God had to Kill off everyone except Noah and his Family:

Genesis 6:11 The earth also was corrupt before God, and the earth was filled with violence. 12 And God looked upon the earth, and, behold, it was corrupt; for all flesh had corrupted his way upon the earth. 13 And God said unto Noah, The end of all flesh is come before me; for the earth is filled with violence through them; and, behold, I will destroy them with the earth.

…all flesh had corrupted his way upon the earth.” Satan had messed with the DNA of All Flesh. Humans and Animals.

Fallen Angels had been having Sex with Women, making Babies that became Giants. The Animals Flesh was also Corrupted by Satan… Satan was trying to Destroy Adam’s seed, his descendants so Jesus could Not Ever be Born to Save the World.

God had to Destroy Satan’s Fallen Angel’s Corruption of the Human Race.

Exodus 32:13 Remember Abraham, Isaac, and Israel, thy servants, to whom thou swarest by thine own self, and saidst unto them, I will multiply your seed as the stars of heaven, and all this land that I have spoken of will I give unto your seed, and they shall inherit it for ever. 14 And the Lord repented of the evil which he thought to do unto his people.

God Changed his Mind, he Repented, he decided Not to Destroy the Nation of Israel.

Psalms 106:43 Many times did he deliver them; but they provoked him with their counsel, and were brought low for their iniquity. 44 Nevertheless he regarded their affliction, when he heard their cry: 45 And he remembered for them his covenant, and repented according to the multitude of his mercies.

Throughout the Bible God Repents, He Changes His Mind about Punishing Mankind, the Nation of Israel, for their Wickedness. Instead of Punishing them he Often shows them Mercy.

In the Bible God Repents More than anyone else. So, for Repentance / Repent to mean to Repent of Sin, that would mean that God is a Sinner. It is Impossible for God to Sin.

These Corrupt Churches Label All of their Works that they Add to Salvation as just being Obedient to God.

They Falsely say: Repent of Sin, Forsaking Sin, Making Jesus the Lord of Your Life, Surrender Your Life To Jesus, Giving your Life to Jesus, Water Baptism, Confessing Your Sins, Church Membership, etc…, None of this is Works because it is just a Normal Part of Salvation.

None of the Requirements Above are Part of Salvation in the Bible.

Salvation in the Bible:

When you Read Below How people were Saved in the Bible You will see that No one was Saved by Repenting of their Sins, By Water Baptism, by anything Other than Trusting in the Gospel Only: Jesus Death, Burial and Resurrection to Save them.

Salvation Is Only Through The Lord Jesus Christ. Jesus Plus Nothing Else:

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

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

Salvation is: Believing the Gospel Only! Plus, Nothing Else!

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

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.

 1.) Jesus Christ DIED on the Cross for All of Our Sins Past, Present and Future Sins. He Died for all the Sins of the Entire World.

2.) Jesus was BURIED. 

3.) Jesus bodily ROSE from the Dead on the 3rd day.

Galatians 1:1 Paul, an apostle, (not of men, neither by man, but by Jesus Christ, and God the Father, who raised him from the dead;) 2 And all the brethren which are with me, unto the churches of Galatia: 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.

The Salvation of the Ethiopian Eunuch:

Acts 8:26 And the angel of the Lord spake unto Philip, saying, Arise, and go toward the south unto the way that goeth down from Jerusalem unto Gaza, which is desert. 27 And he arose and went: and, behold, a man of Ethiopia, an eunuch of great authority under Candace queen of the Ethiopians, who had the charge of all her treasure, and had come to Jerusalem for to worship, 28 Was returning, and sitting in his chariot read Esaias the prophet. 29 Then the Spirit said unto Philip, Go near, and join thyself to this chariot. 30 And Philip ran thither to him, and heard him read the prophet Esaias, and said, Understandest thou what thou readest? 31 And he said, How can I, except some man should guide me? And he desired Philip that he would come up and sit with him. 32 The place of the scripture which he read was this, He was led as a sheep to the slaughter; and like a lamb dumb before his shearer, so opened he not his mouth: 33 In his humiliation his judgment was taken away: and who shall declare his generation? for his life is taken from the earth. 34 And the eunuch answered Philip, and said, I pray thee, of whom speaketh the prophet this? of himself, or of some other man? 35 Then Philip opened his mouth, and began at the same scripture, and preached unto him Jesus. 36 And as they went on their way, they came unto a certain water: and the eunuch said, See, here is water; what doth hinder me to be baptized? 37 And Philip said, If thou believest with all thine heart, thou mayest. And he answered and said, I believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God. 38 And he commanded the chariot to stand still: and they went down both into the water, both Philip and the eunuch; and he baptized him. 39 And when they were come up out of the water, the Spirit of the Lord caught away Philip, that the eunuch saw him no more: and he went on his way rejoicing.

****Notice**** The Ethiopian Eunuch was Saved from Isaiah Chapter 53. Many False Teachers Falsely Teach that in the Old Testament People were Saved by Works. This is a Lie. There is Only One Way to Be Saved in the Bible and it is Not By Works, By the Law. It is Only Through Jesus.

Isaiah 53:1 Who hath believed our report? and to whom is the arm of the Lord revealed? 2 For he shall grow up before him as a tender plant, and as a root out of a dry ground: he hath no form nor comeliness; and when we shall see him, there is no beauty that we should desire him. 3 He is despised and rejected of men; a man of sorrows, and acquainted with grief: and we hid as it were our faces from him; he was despised, and we esteemed him not. 4 Surely he hath borne our griefs, and carried our sorrows: yet we did esteem him stricken, smitten of God, and afflicted. 5 But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed. 6 All we like sheep have gone astray; we have turned every one to his own way; and the Lord hath laid on him the iniquity of us all. 7 He was oppressed, and he was afflicted, yet he opened not his mouth: he is brought as a lamb to the slaughter, and as a sheep before her shearers is dumb, so he openeth not his mouth. 8 He was taken from prison and from judgment: and who shall declare his generation? for he was cut off out of the land of the living: for the transgression of my people was he stricken. 9 And he made his grave with the wicked, and with the rich in his death; because he had done no violence, neither was any deceit in his mouth. 10 Yet it pleased the Lord to bruise him; he hath put him to grief: when thou shalt make his soul an offering for sin, he shall see his seed, he shall prolong his days, and the pleasure of the Lord shall prosper in his hand. 11 He shall see of the travail of his soul, and shall be satisfied: by his knowledge shall my righteous servant justify many; for he shall bear their iniquities. 12 Therefore will I divide him a portion with the great, and he shall divide the spoil with the strong; because he hath poured out his soul unto death: and he was numbered with the transgressors; and he bare the sin of many, and made intercession for the transgressors.

The Ethiopian Eunuch was Baptized After he Was Saved by Believing the Gospel Only. He was Not Told to Repent of his Sins to Be Saved.

The Only Place in the Bible where a Person Asked How to Be Saved:

Acts 16:25 And at midnight Paul and Silas prayed, and sang praises unto God: and the prisoners heard them. 26 And suddenly there was a great earthquake, so that the foundations of the prison were shaken: and immediately all the doors were opened, and every one’s bands were loosed. 27 And the keeper of the prison awaking out of his sleep, and seeing the prison doors open, he drew out his sword, and would have killed himself, supposing that the prisoners had been fled. 28 But Paul cried with a loud voice, saying, Do thyself no harm: for we are all here. 29 Then he called for a light, and sprang in, and came trembling, and fell down before Paul and Silas, 30 And brought them out, and said, Sirs, what must I do to be saved? 31 And they said, Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved, and thy house.

****Notice**** The Answer to What Must I Do to Be Saved was: Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ. Period. Nothing Else was Required.

The Answer was Not: You Must Repent of Your Sins to Be Saved. You must 1st Be willing to Make Jesus the Lord of your Life before you can Be Saved. You must Forsake Your Sins to Be Saved. You Must Be Baptized to Be Saved.

Salvation is the Work of Jesus Only, Plus Nothing Else:

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.

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.

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

John 6:40 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.

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

1st Corinthians 5:7 Purge out therefore the old leaven, that ye may be a new lump, as ye are unleavened. For even Christ our passover is sacrificed for us:

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.

The Law, Good Works, Has Saved Noone, At Any time In History. The Law Good Works Has Never Been The Way to Heaven. 

Since the Beginning, In the Old Testament Salvation was Through Jesus ONLY. The Entire Bible Has ONLY ONE WAY TO BE SAVED: BELIEVE ON THE LORD JESUS CHRIST.

Acts 13:38 Be it known unto you therefore, men and brethren, that through this man is preached unto you the forgiveness of sins: 39 And by him all that believe are justified from all things, from which ye could not be justified by the law of Moses.

Acts 15:7 And when there had been much disputing, Peter rose up, and said unto them, Men and brethren, ye know how that a good while ago God made choice among us, that the Gentiles by my mouth should hear the word of the gospel, and believe. 8 And God, which knoweth the hearts, bare them witness, giving them the Holy Ghost, even as he did unto us; 9 And put no difference between us and them, purifying their hearts by faith. 10 Now therefore why tempt ye God, to put a yoke upon the neck of the disciples, which neither our fathers nor we were able to bear? 11 But we believe that through the grace of the LORD Jesus Christ we shall be saved, even as they.

Romans 3:25 Whom God hath set forth to be a propitiation through faith in his blood, to declare his righteousness for the remission of sins that are past, through the forbearance of God; 26 To declare, I say, at this time his righteousness: that he might be just, and the justifier of him which believeth in Jesus. 27 Where is boasting then? It is excluded. By what law? of works? Nay: but by the law of faith. 28 Therefore we conclude that a man is justified by faith without the deeds of the law.

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.

Titus 3:5 Not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to his mercy he saved us, by the washing of regeneration, and renewing of the Holy Ghost;

Lordship Salvation: Repent of Sin to Be Saved. Is the biggest Lie Satan ever came up with.

Too many countless souls have gone to Hell because of this Horrendous False Teaching — WORKS SALVATION: “YOU MUST DO YOUR OWN PART IN SALVATION” “MUST WORK FOR YOUR SALVATION”. 

We are Saved by God’s Grace. Grace is receiving Undeserved Unmerited Favor, the Forgiveness of all of our Sins. 

2,000 years ago, Jesus died on the Cross for Every Individual Sin of the Whole World. He was Buried and He bodily Rose again on the 3rd day from the Dead for our Justification in the eyes of God The Father. 

The Bible teaches that the only way to be Eternally Saved is to Simply Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ Alone to Save us. Not by trusting in all our Self-Righteous Good Works / Religious Works / Human Self Efforts / Human Sorrows and Feelings to Save us. 

Again, Remember:

Acts 16:30 And brought them out, and said, Sirs, what must I do to be saved?31 And they said, Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved, and thy house.

The phrase Lordship Salvation sounds innocently scriptural and appears innocently biblical. So, what’s the Big Deal? 

Is it Undeserving Unmerited Grace through Simple Faith in the Blood of Jesus Christ Alone OR is it Jesus Plus Your Own Good Works for Salvation? That is the Big Deal.

Lordship Salvation / Repent of Sins / Good Works OR Jesus Only is the Question.

Salvation is: The Finished, Perfect Redemptive “Sin Purging” Work of Jesus Christ Alone through Faith Alone. Salvation is Eternal Life, Not A Temporary Gift that can be Taken Away.

You must reject the False Doctrine called Lordship Salvation. Reject All False Works Based Salvation Churches and False Teachers.

Lordship Salvation (Repent of Sin) Teaches:

You must Reform yourself, Repent of Your Sin, Prior to being Saved. That you cannot Sin Again, or you will go to Hell.

If this was True, then Nobody could be Saved. 

If you Must Never Sin Again After You Are Saved in order to Stay Saved, Again, nobody will be Saved. No matter how much you hate your Sin, it remains a part of your human nature.

So, if anyone is to be Saved, Salvation is Only Through the Finished Eternal Redemptive Work that Jesus Himself DID on the Cross and Not upon Anything Else added to it. This is What the Bible Teaches.

Today Pastors will tell you differently — Teachers will tell you differently — Evangelists will tell you differently — and Lying Spirits will tell you differently!

They All Speak Out of Both Sides of their Mouths Telling us: “It’s Grace Alone through Faith Alone…” BUT they ADD REPENT OF SIN.

REPENT OF SIN IS WORKS. NO MATTER HOW LOUDLY THEY SCREAM THAT REPENT OF SIN IS NOT WORKS.

The Lordship Salvationists Attempt to Argue away the Inherent Contradictions in their Un-Biblical False Doctrine. But the Contradictions Cannot be Explained away. 

Lordship Salvation-ism is a Dichotomy. It is Legalism. It is Roman-ism. It is impossible. It is Another Gospel.

The Bible says that Jesus Christ has always been the One True JEHOVAH God. Jesus is Eternal, The Son of God. He has Always been with God The Father and with God The Holy Spirit. We don’t even have any power to MAKE Him Lord of our life because He is the LORD.

Jesus is The Alpha and Omega:

Revelation 1:8 I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the ending, saith the Lord, which is, and which was, and which is to come, the Almighty.

Revelation 1:11 Saying, I am Alpha and Omega, the first and the last: and, What thou seest, write in a book, and send it unto the seven churches which are in Asia; unto Ephesus, and unto Smyrna, and unto Pergamos, and unto Thyatira, and unto Sardis, and unto Philadelphia, and unto Laodicea.

Revelation 21:6 And he said unto me, It is done. I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end. I will give unto him that is athirst of the fountain of the water of life freely.

Revelation 22:13 I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end, the first and the last.

John 1:1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. 2 The same was in the beginning with God. 3 All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made.

John 10:30 I and my Father are one.

Salvation is Without Works:

To Be Saved: You Must Know Jesus is The Son of God. Realize You are a Sinner that Deserves to Die and go to Hell. Feel the need for a Savior. Once you understand Jesus is the Savior of the World. You Need to Believe The Gospel Only to Save You. To Believe on Jesus As Your One and Only Savior, the Only Way to Heaven.

Once You believe the Gospel: Jesus Died was Buried and He Rose Again on the 3rd day to Pay the Penalty for All of your Sins. In a nanosecond the moment you Believe on Jesus, as your Saviour the only way to Heaven you are Immediately Saved.

You Don’t Have Salvation If You Add Anything To Jesus Only For Salvation.

To say a Saved Born-Again Believer will be Punished in Hell for Sinning, doing Wrong, is Saying that The Lord Jesus Christ is NOT the 100% All-Sufficient Savior and He is NOT 100% Good Enough to Save You from Hell without Your Help. That Jesus Blood Atonement is Not Sufficient to Save You, to Keep You Saved! 

Ignore The False Gospel that Comes from Men and Not from the Bible.

Romans 10:17 So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.

Amos 8:11 Behold, the days come, saith the Lord GOD, that I will send a famine in the land, not a famine of bread, nor a thirst for water, but of hearing the words of the LORD:

False Teachers Make Salvation Hard By Adding Impossible Requirements to Salvation.

They Use the Term Easy Believism to Mock People who Believe the Bible.

Lordship Salvationist / Repent of Sin False Churches use Terms Like Easy Believism to Say Free Grace Believers Want Salvation to Be Easy, when According to Them Salvation is Hard.

With Lordship Salvation, Repent of Sin LIARS, Salvation is Not Hard. It is Impossible. These LIARS Mock Jesus. They Openly Laugh at Jesus’ Sacrifice on the Cross Being Enough to Save You From Hell.

1st Corinthians 1:18 For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is the power of God. 19 For it is written, I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, and will bring to nothing the understanding of the prudent. 20 Where is the wise? where is the scribe? where is the disputer of this world? hath not God made foolish the wisdom of this world? 21 For after that in the wisdom of God the world by wisdom knew not God, it pleased God by the foolishness of preaching to save them that believe. 22 For the Jews require a sign, and the Greeks seek after wisdom: 23 But we preach Christ crucified, unto the Jews a stumblingblock, and unto the Greeks foolishness; 24 But unto them which are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of God, and the wisdom of God. 25 Because the foolishness of God is wiser than men; and the weakness of God is stronger than men. 26 For ye see your calling, brethren, how that not many wise men after the flesh, not many mighty, not many noble, are called: 27 But God hath chosen the foolish things of the world to confound the wise; and God hath chosen the weak things of the world to confound the things which are mighty; 28 And base things of the world, and things which are despised, hath God chosen, yea, and things which are not, to bring to nought things that are: 29 That no flesh should glory in his presence. 30 But of him are ye in Christ Jesus, who of God is made unto us wisdom, and righteousness, and sanctification, and redemption: 31 That, according as it is written, He that glorieth, let him glory in the Lord.

The Bible Says Salvation is Simple (Easy)

The Bible Warns Against Lying False Teachers who Make Salvation Impossible by Adding Works to Salvation.

2nd Corinthians 11:1 Would to God ye could bear with me a little in my folly: and indeed bear with me. 2 For I am jealous over you with godly jealousy: for I have espoused you to one husband, that I may present you as a chaste virgin to Christ. 3 But I fear, lest by any means, as the serpent beguiled Eve through his subtilty, so your minds should be corrupted from the simplicity that is in Christ. 4 For if he that cometh preacheth another Jesus, whom we have not preached, or if ye receive another spirit, which ye have not received, or another gospel, which ye have not accepted, ye might well bear with him. 5 For I suppose I was not a whit behind the very chiefest apostles. 6 But though I be rude in speech, yet not in knowledge; but we have been throughly made manifest among you in all things. 7 Have I committed an offence in abasing myself that ye might be exalted, because I have preached to you the gospel of God freely? 8 I robbed other churches, taking wages of them, to do you service. 9 And when I was present with you, and wanted, I was chargeable to no man: for that which was lacking to me the brethren which came from Macedonia supplied: and in all things I have kept myself from being burdensome unto you, and so will I keep myself. 10 As the truth of Christ is in me, no man shall stop me of this boasting in the regions of Achaia. 11 Wherefore? because I love you not? God knoweth. 12 But what I do, that I will do, that I may cut off occasion from them which desire occasion; that wherein they glory, they may be found even as we. 13 For such are false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming themselves into the apostles of Christ. 14 And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light. 15 Therefore it is no great thing if his ministers also be transformed as the ministers of righteousness; whose end shall be according to their works.

Adding Works To Salvation is a One Way Road to Hell.

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 4:4 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.

Romans 11:6 And if by grace, then is it no more of works: otherwise grace is no more grace. But if it be of works, then it is no more grace: otherwise work is no more work.

What are WORKS? 

Trusting in your self-righteous works

Trusting in your good works

Trusting in your religious works

Trusting ascended masters

Trusting Catholicism 

Trusting in your human self-efforts

The Bible Teaches that Only the Precious Shed Blood of Jesus Christ Alone is Sufficient to Save You and Me from the Eternal Torment of Hellfire. By Grace Alone through Faith Alone, Jesus Blood will Save Us and KEEP Us Cleansed and Sinless for All Eternity!

Twelve Bible Passages that Prove that Jesus Christ Alone Is The ONLY WAY TO HEAVEN:

(1) Acts 20:28 Take heed therefore unto yourselves, and to all the flock, over the which the Holy Ghost hath made you overseers, to feed the church of God, which HE HATH PURCHASED WITH HIS OWN BLOOD.

(3) Romans 5:9 Much more then, being now JUSTIFIED BY HIS BLOOD, we SHALL BE SAVED FROM WRATH THROUGH HIM.

(4) Ephesians 2:13 But NOW IN CHRIST JESUS ye who sometimes were far off are MADE NIGH BY THE BLOOD OF CHRIST.

(10) Revelation 5:9 And they sung a new song, saying, THOU ART WORTHY to take the book, and to open the seals thereof: for THOU WAST SLAIN, and HAST REDEEMED US TO GOD BY THY BLOOD out of EVERY kindred, and tongue, and people, and nation;

(11) Revelation 7:14 And I said unto him, Sir, thou knowest. And he said to me, These are they which came out of great tribulation, and have washed their robes, and made them white IN THE BLOOD OF THE LAMB.

(12) Revelation 12:11 And they overcame him BY THE BLOOD OF THE LAMB, and by the word of their testimony; and they loved not their lives unto the death.
