Is Christianity A Religion? Is It Wrong To Be Religious? Is The USA A Christian Nation?

Christianity Is A Religion. Jesus and All of his Disciples were All Very Religious.

Counterfeit Christian Churches Love to Say: If You want Religion Go to Another Church. You will Not Find Religion in this Christian Church. We are Not Religious.” “Jesus Was Not Preaching a Religion. Christianity Is Not a Religion…”

I see People posting comments like this Every day online. These Biblically Illiterate People Obviously Have Never read the Bible.

The Bible is Clear that Christianity is a Religion:

Not all Religions are True Though. 99% of Christianity is Counterfeit Christianity. 99% of All Churches Are Counterfeit and Not Remotely Christian, you will Not find Christianity in them.

In Acts 26:5 the Apostle Paul Declares that he was Religious. That he was a Pharisee. That he Practiced OUR RELIGION:

Acts 26:5 Which knew me from the beginning, if they would testify, that after the most straitest sect of our religion I lived a Pharisee.

Galatians 1:13 For ye have heard of my conversation in time past in the Jews’ religion, how that beyond measure I persecuted the church of God, and wasted it:

14 And profited in the Jews’ religion above many my equals in mine own nation, being more exceedingly zealous of the traditions of my fathers.

15 But when it pleased God, who separated me from my mother’s womb, and called me by his grace,

16 To reveal his Son in me, that I might preach him among the heathen; immediately I conferred not with flesh and blood:

James 1:26 If any man among you seem to be religious, and bridleth not his tongue, but deceiveth his own heart, this man’s religion is vain.

James 1:27 Pure religion and undefiled before God and the Father is this, To visit the fatherless and widows in their affliction, and to keep himself unspotted from the world.

Christianity is a Religion that Teaches that Jesus became God in the Flesh. Jesus is God who became a man to Pay the Penalty for All of the sins of the Entire World.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

I have to Share the Above Truth Continuously to Fake Pastors who are Online Spewing Lies, and to All of Their Followers who do the same, that I see spreading the same Lies.

I shared what I wrote Above and what continues Below, to a Very Popular Widely Known “Christian” Religious Leader who had a Horrible Post on Twitter and on Facebook, a Few Years Ago. He posted his Self-Righteous, Sanctimonious, Unbiblical Post / Blog All over the Internet. He Replied back to me a Few times which Surprised me. Usually, Big Wigs like him Never Reply back to Criticism.

His Sermon… was that Christianity Is Not a Religion.

His Message was that Being Religious was a Sign a Person was Not Saved. He Called out Countless Churches / Pastors, Teachers, Author’s, Evangelists, etc… He Said that the USA Needed to Repent of Their Sins and Get Back to Being a Christian Nation among Many other things in His Pious, Unbiblical, Historically Untrue Hypocritical Rantings.

Repent of Sin is Not in the Bible it is a False Gospel of Works.

https://plain-talk-christian-ministries.com/2022/12/14/beware-of-the-repent-of-sin-false-gospel/

Before I include what else, I wrote back to him. I want to Say that what he Said is Pure Propaganda that I have heard hundreds of times in Baptist Churches. In IFB, Independent Fundamentalist Baptist Churches. They are KJV Only (I Only use the KJV Bible. But Guess what Most Cults Only use the KJV Bible. Having the Right Bible Doesn’t mean a Pastor, a Preacher, an Evangelist, a Church, a Group, etc…, is Not Part of a Lost Religion, is Not Just a Religious Cult.) “Bible Believers.”

I Get Sick to My Stomach Every time I hear Someone Tell me that they are a KJV Bible Believer. I Immediately Think they are Lost, part of the IFB Cult.

The ONLY Thing That Jesus and his Disciples Stressed Repeatedly was Theology: Jesus is God. God is 1 God in 3 Persons. Salvation is Eternal Life Through Jesus Only. They Pushed the Gospel: Jesus’s Death, Burial, and Resurrection from the Dead.

Jesus’s Earthly Ministry was full of Miracles to Prove that he was God, the Promised Messiah written about in the Holy Scriptures. Jesus Preached: The Gospel as the Only Way to Be Saved from Hell / The Lake of Fire, to Everyone. Salvation, to be Saved from Eternal Damnation is Jesus Only, Plus Nothing Else.

Jesus Did Not Push: IFB Baptists, Southern Baptists, Catholicism, Protestant’s. Repent of Sin, Dispensations, Dispensationalism, Calvinism or Any of the Other Unbiblical Garbage that is being Pushed Today.

So, when I hear Unbiblical Lies, Especially Lies I have heard Repeatedly in IFB Churches I cannot Ignore them.

The Conclusion of My Reply:

Please Try reading the Bible before you post Ignorant stuff like this. (I posted what I wrote above to him next. Followed by what is Below.)

Guess What Jesus was Religious.

A Religious person is a person who is very Devout in Their Faith / Their Worship of God.

FYI Prayer is Worship.

Devout Jesus instructing the Disciples on Prayer. Jesus Praying, Worshiping God the Father:

John 14:5 Thomas saith unto him, Lord, we know not whither thou goest; and how can we know the way? 6 Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me. 7 If ye had known me, ye should have known my Father also: and from henceforth ye know him, and have seen him. 8 Philip saith unto him, Lord, shew us the Father, and it sufficeth us. 9 Jesus saith unto him, Have I been so long time with you, and yet hast thou not known me, Philip? he that hath seen me hath seen the Father; and how sayest thou then, Shew us the Father? 10 Believest thou not that I am in the Father, and the Father in me? the words that I speak unto you I speak not of myself: but the Father that dwelleth in me, he doeth the works. 11 Believe me that I am in the Father, and the Father in me: or else believe me for the very works’ sake. 12 Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto my Father. 13 And whatsoever ye shall ask in my name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son. 14 If ye shall ask any thing in my name, I will do it. 15 If ye love me, keep my commandments. 16 And I will pray the Father, and he shall give you another Comforter, that he may abide with you for ever; 17 Even the Spirit of truth; whom the world cannot receive, because it seeth him not, neither knoweth him: but ye know him; for he dwelleth with you, and shall be in you. 18 I will not leave you comfortless: I will come to you. 19 Yet a little while, and the world seeth me no more; but ye see me: because I live, ye shall live also. 20 At that day ye shall know that I am in my Father, and ye in me, and I in you. 21 He that hath my commandments, and keepeth them, he it is that loveth me: and he that loveth me shall be loved of my Father, and I will love him, and will manifest myself to him. 22 Judas saith unto him, not Iscariot, Lord, how is it that thou wilt manifest thyself unto us, and not unto the world? 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.

Matthew 26:36 Then cometh Jesus with them unto a place called Gethsemane, and saith unto the disciples, Sit ye here, while I go and pray yonder. 37 And he took with him Peter and the two sons of Zebedee, and began to be sorrowful and very heavy. 38 Then saith he unto them, My soul is exceeding sorrowful, even unto death: tarry ye here, and watch with me. 39 And he went a little farther, and fell on his face, and prayed, saying, O my Father, if it be possible, let this cup pass from me: nevertheless not as I will, but as thou wilt. 40 And he cometh unto the disciples, and findeth them asleep, and saith unto Peter, What, could ye not watch with me one hour? 41 Watch and pray, that ye enter not into temptation: the spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak. 42 He went away again the second time, and prayed, saying, O my Father, if this cup may not pass away from me, except I drink it, thy will be done. 43 And he came and found them asleep again: for their eyes were heavy. 44 And he left them, and went away again, and prayed the third time, saying the same words. 45 Then cometh he to his disciples, and saith unto them, Sleep on now, and take your rest: behold, the hour is at hand, and the Son of man is betrayed into the hands of sinners. 46 Rise, let us be going: behold, he is at hand that doth betray me.

In Luke’s Account Jesus was Praying so hard his Sweat was Blood:

Luke 22:39 And he came out, and went, as he was wont, to the mount of Olives; and his disciples also followed him. 40 And when he was at the place, he said unto them, Pray that ye enter not into temptation. 41 And he was withdrawn from them about a stone’s cast, and kneeled down, and prayed, 42 Saying, Father, if thou be willing, remove this cup from me: nevertheless not my will, but thine, be done. 43 And there appeared an angel unto him from heaven, strengthening him.

44 And being in an agony he prayed more earnestly: and his sweat was as it were great drops of blood falling down to the ground.

45 And when he rose up from prayer, and was come to his disciples, he found them sleeping for sorrow, 46 And said unto them, Why sleep ye? rise and pray, lest ye enter into temptation.

You Cannot Get more Devout than Praying so Hard that your sweat is Blood.

The USA is Not a Christian Nation Now. The USA Has NEVER BEEN A CHRISTIAN NATION. Allowing The Freedom of Religion, For People to Freely Worship, to be Religious in Public is Not the Same thing as Being a Christian Nation.

The Freedom to Worship as you choose to is a Great Part of the US Constitution.

What the US Constitution Did Not Do was Declare Jesus God who Died for the Sins of the World. Define what a Christian Religion is. It Does Not Define Religion / Religious Belief in Any way. It Does Not Talk at All about Jesus, about Christianity.

The US Constitution Does Not Write Specifically About any Particular Religion / Religious Belief. It Only Allows for People to Have Freedom of Religion. This is Outstanding!!!! It is NOT A Declaration in Any Way about Christianity.

The US Constitution Protects People’s Right to Worship Anything. People are Free to Worship Hinduism, Islam, any of the Thousands of Religions / Religious Beliefs that there is.

You can Worship Tree’s. You might laugh at this but Gaia Worship the Worship of Mother Nature. Is a very Popular Religion. It is the Go-to Religion of Choice of Most Celebrities. They incorporate Gaia Mother Earth Worship into their Religions, their Religious Beliefs. See they are Polytheists they Worship Many Different Gods and Goddesses.

When you see Star Athletes and Celebrities of any Kind pointing to the Sky and Praising God Most of the Time the God that they are Praising is SATAN Not Jesus. This is the Truth. The Elites of this World Worship SATAN. They Call SATAN God. When they say God in Public on TV, they do not Freely Admit they Mean SATAN.

2nd Corinthians 4:1 Therefore seeing we have this ministry, as we have received mercy, we faint not; 2 But have renounced the hidden things of dishonesty, not walking in craftiness, nor handling the word of God deceitfully; but by manifestation of the truth commending ourselves to every man’s conscience in the sight of God. 3 But if our gospel be hid, it is hid to them that are lost:

4 In whom the god of this world hath blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine unto them.

5 For we preach not ourselves, but Christ Jesus the Lord; and ourselves your servants for Jesus’ sake. 6 For God, who commanded the light to shine out of darkness, hath shined in our hearts, to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ.

I am Sick and Tired of hearing how the USA is The Land of Freedom:

That The USA is The Nation that Saved the World twice: WW1 and WW2. The Truth is WW1 and WW2 were Wars Started by of The Global Bankers in Europe and in The USA.

European and US Banks made Billions of dollars off of WW1 and WW2. Since then, every War the USA has been a part of has been for these Global Bankers to Enrich Them.

All of These Wars were not Fought to Free people to Stop Hitler the Nazis, to Stop Communism. The US banks funded Hitler. Hitler could have done Nothing without the money from the USA and the Europeans. US Banks, US Celebrities like The Bush family, (Yes George Bush 1 and 2.) and Henry Ford were old time Nazis that supported Hitler.

If Pearl Harbor Had Not Happened the USA would Have Never even entered WW2.

It is time to Dispel the Lie of the Greatness of the USA as a Nation:

First, it is a Lie that the USA has ever been a Christian Nation. The Founders Religion was Not Christianity. The Religion of Nearly Every Founder was Free Masonry Not Christianity. 

The Founders were Amoral they were a bunch of skirt chasing, Drunks. Their Typical Meeting Places were Bars full of Prostitutes. Benjamin Franklin was a Notorious Drunk who was known for being a Drunk that was always with Prostitutes. The rest were too, Benjamin Franklin was just one of the most Recognizable men in public.

The True History of the USA is a Nation that looked at Blacks and Native Americans as Sub-Human’s that could be Murdered Legally because they were not Humans.

Blacks were considered Legal property. It was Legal to Shoot Native Americans on Sight, to Kill your own Property Black Slaves.

The USA was Built on the Blood Sweat and Tears of Slavery.

Whites were Slaves too.

Most of the People who were first brought to the USA sold themselves into Slavery (It was called Indentured Servants.) for the passage over to the New World.

White Child Slavery was widely used in the North in Manufacturing, in Textile Mills to make cloth. 

The US Railroads were built mostly by the Chinese, by Chinese Slaves.

The EVIL Inhumane Barbaric practice of Slavery completely Destroys the Myth of the USA having been a Christian Nation. 

White Slave owners were Never Brought to Court for Killing, Raping Their Slaves which many often did.

The Lie that the USA is a Christian Nation:

The US Constitution Does Not mention Jesus, Christianity. It Does Not Declare Christianity the Faith of the USA. It Does Protect, The Freedom of Religion, (The Right to Be Religious to Found and Have Churches of Any Type.), Speech, the Right to Bear arms etc…

The US Constitution has been Great for White Men. It was written with only White Men in mind.

The USA Murdered its way from the East Coast to the West Coast.

This Expansion Murdered Native Americans, Spanish, French, Mexican’s, Everyone in the way. The USA Stole Half of Mexico and Tried to Conquer Canada.

Research conducted by the “Jang Group and Geo Television Network” reveals that the United States has been at war for about 225 of the 246 years since its inception in 1776. While the number of US foreign military interventions had stood at 188 until 2017, the world superpower was found involved in 117 “partisan electoral interventions” between 1946 and 2000 or around one of every nine ballot exercises held since Second World War.

This means that the United States has been at war for more than 92 per cent of the time since its birth, making critics view that the rulers of the land found by Christopher Columbus have been addicted to the use of military might and intoxicated with their successes against weaker nations that could not defend themselves for one reason or the other. Or in other words, the United States has only been at peace for less than 20 years.

Fear Porn:

The Same People Pushing that the USA was / is a Christian Nation. That Christianity is the Religion of the USA. That 70+ percent of the USA are Religious / hold to a Particular Religion, have a Strong Religious Faith… Are the Same People Pushing WW3 is Imminent. Some Think that The Rapture is Going to Happen Very Soon. Other’s Deny the Rapture is True. But they agree in Spreading FEAR PORN.

The FEAR PORN INDUSTRY Have Been Spreading FEAR PORN Since at least the 1800’s. They Thought the US Civil War was the Great Tribulation. Then WW1 was etc…

I do Not know when the Rapture will Happen. I am 58 and since I was 8 years old, yes for 50 Years, I have heard that the Rapture will Happen Very Soon…

The Rapture Does Gets closer every minute, every second. But do not get wrapped up it in.

My Dad was in his 20’s when he first really looked into the Rapture. He died more than 60 years later, having completely rejected the Church / Christianity. When he Died his Obituary Did Not Include that he was a Christian… Because he Wasn’t. He Rejected whatever Faith he was Raised with.

When He was a Regular Church Goer, He thought he would be Raptured up well before he even turned 50 but he died in his 80’s without any Faith in Jesus, in Christianity. More than 150 years ago during the Civil War people thought they would soon be Raptured up to Heaven. All those people are now dead. Paul himself thought the Rapture would happen when he was still alive. Paul has been dead for around 2,000 years.

Believe the Bible. Believe in the Rapture but do not be Obsessed with it.

https://plain-talk-christian-ministries.com/2022/12/30/the-rapture-what-does-the-bible-say-is-the-rapture-before-the-great-seven-year-tribulation/

Countless Pastor’s for Hundreds of Years have said the Rapture was going to Happen soon and Thousands of them are Long Dead and Buried.

A very well-known Pastor wrote many books on the Rapture and in the 1980’s in one of his books he said that the Rapture would for sure happen before the year 2,000. He went further and said if the Rapture did not happen before the year 2,000 than everything he had taught and Believed about the Rapture was not True and he would have to completely question his entire Faith in Jesus.

Yes, a very Respected Pastor, Evangelist, Author said this. (His Teaching was Not Unique. It has been the Standard Teaching by Most Baptist and Evangelical Pastors for Hundreds of years.) He lived many years after 2,000 (He is Dead now though.) and did not explain if he indeed had Lost his Faith in Jesus.

According to him, and Countless other Pastor’s Alive and Dead, Jesus had to come back before the year 2,000 because of the sign of Israel becoming a Nation again mentioned in the Bible. To him, to these other Pastor’s this meant Jesus had to Rapture the Church up before the Year 2,000.

Matthew 24:34 Verily I say unto you, This generation shall not pass, till all these things be fulfilled.

So, in this opinion: This Generation written of in Matthew 24:34 had passed. Making the Bible Wrong and this Teaching of Bible prophecy Wrong. Countless Pastors have written books like he had, saying that the Rapture had to happen by a certain date because of Bible Prophecy.

The Truth is They Were Wrong they didn’t / don’t understand what Matthew 24:34 is Actually referring to.

The Bible is Correct, they just put dates out when the Bible says Not to Set Dates:

Matthew 24:36 But of that day and hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels of heaven, but my Father only.

Jesus makes it 100% Clear that Christians will Not Know when his 2nd Coming will Happen.

But Lost False Counterfeit Christianity makes Millions of Dollars Selling Books, Films, Movies about Unbiblical End of the World Events so they will Keep Spreading FEAR PORN, False Bible Prophecy.

Satan is a LIAR, and he is Behind All of the FEAR PORN:

FEARING WARS, DIEASES, FAMINE, NATUAL DIASTERS, FEARING EVERYTHING. FEARING THE GREAT TRIBULATION.

Christians will Not be on the Earth During the GREAT TRIBULATION they (I) will be Raptured off the Earth Before it happens.

Matthew 24:1 And Jesus went out, and departed from the temple: and his disciples came to him for to shew him the buildings of the temple. 2 And Jesus said unto them, See ye not all these things? verily I say unto you, There shall not be left here one stone upon another, that shall not be thrown down. 3 And as he sat upon the mount of Olives, the disciples came unto him privately, saying, Tell us, when shall these things be? and what shall be the sign of thy coming, and of the end of the world? 4 And Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that no man deceive you. 5 For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many. 6 And ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars: see that ye be not troubled: for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet. 7 For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places. 8 All these are the beginning of sorrows. 9 Then shall they deliver you up to be afflicted, and shall kill you: and ye shall be hated of all nations for my name’s sake. 10 And then shall many be offended, and shall betray one another, and shall hate one another. 11 And many false prophets shall rise, and shall deceive many. 12 And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold. 13 But he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved.

Matthew 24:13 But he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved.

This verse Matthew 24:13 is Not about Eternal Salvation. It is Not about Christians Losing their Salvation:

It is Talking about Saving Your Life from Physical Death Only. It is Not talking about Eternal Damnation in Hell / The Lake of Fire. The passage is Talking about Christians, about Saved People BEFORE!!!!! THE GREAT TRIBULATION.

AGAIN Matthew 24:13 happens BEFORE THE GREAT TRIBULATION!!!!

THE GREAT TRIBULATION is Not happening in Matthew 24:13. This time period is right before the Rapture.

Matthew 24:14 makes this Crystal Clear:

Matthew 24:14 And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come.

The Rapture will Happen ONLY After the Gospel has been Preached in ALL the World.

THE GREAT TRIBULATION happens sometime soon After Matthew 24:14. Matthew 24:13 happens Before THE GREAT TRIBULATION.

False Teachers Twist the Scriptures and use Matthew 24:13 to teach Christians will be Living on the Earth During the GREAT TRIBULATION and they will have to Endure to the End of THE GREAT TRIBULATION to Be Saved.

Jesus All throughout his Ministry is Warning about and Exposing False Teachers:

Here in Matthew Chapter 24 Jesus is Again Warning about the Lying False Teachers:

Matthew 24:23 Then if any man shall say unto you, Lo, here is Christ, or there; believe it not. 24 For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect. 25 Behold, I have told you before. 26 Wherefore if they shall say unto you, Behold, he is in the desert; go not forth: behold, he is in the secret chambers; believe it not. 27 For as the lightning cometh out of the east, and shineth even unto the west; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be. 28 For wheresoever the carcase is, there will the eagles be gathered together.

Matthew 24:32 Now learn a parable of the fig tree; When his branch is yet tender, and putteth forth leaves, ye know that summer is nigh: 33 So likewise ye, when ye shall see all these things, know that it is near, even at the doors. 34 Verily I say unto you, This generation shall not pass, till all these things be fulfilled. 35 Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my words shall not pass away. 36 But of that day and hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels of heaven, but my Father only. 37 But as the days of Noe were, so shall also the coming of the Son of man be. 38 For as in the days that were before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noe entered into the ark, 39 And knew not until the flood came, and took them all away; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be. 40 Then shall two be in the field; the one shall be taken, and the other left. 41 Two women shall be grinding at the mill; the one shall be taken, and the other left. 42 Watch therefore: for ye know not what hour your Lord doth come. 43 But know this, that if the goodman of the house had known in what watch the thief would come, he would have watched, and would not have suffered his house to be broken up. 44 Therefore be ye also ready: for in such an hour as ye think not the Son of man cometh. 45 Who then is a faithful and wise servant, whom his lord hath made ruler over his household, to give them meat in due season? 46 Blessed is that servant, whom his lord when he cometh shall find so doing. 47 Verily I say unto you, That he shall make him ruler over all his goods. 48 But and if that evil servant shall say in his heart, My lord delayeth his coming; 49 And shall begin to smite his fellowservants, and to eat and drink with the drunken; 50 The lord of that servant shall come in a day when he looketh not for him, and in an hour that he is not aware of, 51 And shall cut him asunder, and appoint him his portion with the hypocrites: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.

Jesus is Very Clear that he will Return when Christians are Not Expecting him to Return:

So, to me that means it will Happen when “Christians” have Stopped Believing in the Rapture Completely.

Like in the Days of Noah…

Be very careful with what you say. Millions of “Christians” are Long Dead who Believed and said that Jesus would be back in their lifetime. 

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.

A Person is Saved by 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.

Counterfeit Christianity. Are You Saved?

Being Saved is the most important decision in your Life. 

Are you a Counterfeit Christian? Are You Sure you are Saved? What are you trusting in to get you to Heaven?

2 Timothy 3:5 “Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away.”

The Bible is full of warnings of Counterfeit Christians. Counterfeit Churches, Counterfeit Christianity.

Tragically, in my life I have been fooled by a lot of people who claimed to be Christians that were not. These frauds, hurt me a lot.

How to spot Fake Christians? “Having a form of godliness…”

They have a form of godliness, that is Fake. They play Church. They make big shows of giving to Charity, of doing Good things. They enjoy the Praise of others.

Matthew 6:2 “Therefore when thou doest thine alms, do not sound a trumpet before thee, as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and in the streets, that they may have glory of men. Verily I say unto you, They have their reward.”

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.
41 And Jesus sat over against the treasury, and beheld how the people cast money into the treasury: and many that were rich cast in much.
42 And there came a certain poor widow, and she threw in two mites, which make a farthing.
43 And he called unto him his disciples, and saith unto them, Verily I say unto you, That this poor widow hath cast more in, than all they which have cast into the treasury:
44 For all they did cast in of their abundance; but she of her want did cast in all that she had, even all her living.

Jesus is warning us to look out for Frauds, Fake Christians.

“Christians” that always seek to be the center of attention: “Hey everybody, look at me, listen to me…” are suspect.

Christians need to be vessels used by Jesus. Not the focus that calls attention to themselves, instead of Jesus.

Back to:

2 Timothy 3:5 “Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away.”

Jesus said to TURN AWAY from FAKE CHRISTIANS. Once you discover people in your life who are Frauds. Do what Jesus says to do. Cut them completely out of your Life.

“…but denying the power thereof:” These Fake Christians are very showy they profess to Believe the Bible. They give the appearance of being Saved, even by giving the correct Bible verses that teach Salvation.

But they deny the power thereof. Meaning they do not Believe the Bible. They always add to Salvation. They add words to Salvation that are not Found in the Bible.

The most popular words added to Salvation is Repent of Sin, Turn From Sin, Forsake Sin, Surrender to God.

Repent of Sin is not in the Bible. Turn from Sin, Forsake Sin, Surrender your Life to Christ, You must have a relationship with Jesus… None of these sayings are in the Bible as being part of Salvation.

Jesus warns us to Beware of Fake Christians who seem godly but they are play acting, they are not Saved.

Nail down how everyone of your friends were Saved. Yes, I mean your friends from your Church.

Ask them: “When were you Saved.” “How were you Saved.” “If you were Standing before Jesus right now. And he Asked you, Why should I let you into Heaven. What would you Say?”

The answers you get will likely surprise you. I have gotten: “I Repented of my Sins to be Saved.” “I was raised in Church, I have always been Saved.”

Some people will become defensive and refuse to answer the question. “That is between me and Jesus!” “How dare you ask me that!”

Asking someone, especially a person who claims to be a Christian, how they were Saved is a reasonable and Biblical question.

A person is Saved by believing the Gospel. By Believing on Jesus only to Save them with nothing added.

1 Peter 3:13 And who is he that will harm you, if ye be followers of that which is good?

14 But and if ye suffer for righteousness’ sake, happy are ye: and be not afraid of their terror, neither be troubled;

15 But sanctify the Lord God in your hearts: and be ready always to give an answer to every man that asketh you a reason of the hope that is in you with meekness and fear:

16 Having a good conscience; that, whereas they speak evil of you, as of evildoers, they may be ashamed that falsely accuse your good conversation in Christ.

17 For it is better, if the will of God be so, that ye suffer for well doing, than for evil doing.

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

19 By which also he went and preached unto the spirits in prison;

20 Which sometime were disobedient, when once the longsuffering of God waited in the days of Noah, while the ark was a preparing, wherein few, that is, eight souls were saved by water.

21 The like figure whereunto even baptism doth also now save us (not the putting away of the filth of the flesh, but the answer of a good conscience toward God,) by the resurrection of Jesus Christ:

22 Who is gone into heaven, and is on the right hand of God; angels and authorities and powers being made subject unto him.

A Christian is Christ like. A true Christian will suffer for being a Christian.

Suffer? Yes. Everyday around the world even in the USA Christians are murdered for their Faith in Jesus. Christianity, is always mocked in society. TV and Films distort true Christianity. The good Christian is always a Catholic. Funny because Catholic’s are not Christians. Almost all portrayals of Catholic’s are positive.

Yes there are some Evil portrayals of Catholic Priest’s mostly because of all the real scandals they are involved with concerning Children and Nuns. The non Catholic portrayals are negative stereotypes that are not true. The Christian is the outsider that is a hypocrite, and often much worse, who is caught being a hypocrite.

In my life as a Christian. People made it their mission in life to corrupt me. People have threatened to beat me up if I would not drink with them. Sex was always offered to me. My life has been threatened. Not just talk. I have been in physical fights. Have had knives pulled on me. So yes being a true Christian comes with dangers.

Jesus in John Chapter 15 explains what a Christian is.

John 15:1 I am the true vine, and my Father is the husbandman.

2 Every branch in me that beareth not fruit he taketh away: and every branch that beareth fruit, he purgeth it, that it may bring forth more fruit.

Verse 2- Is talking about Christian’s. If you are really Saved you should be in the ministry. Yes, every Christian needs to be serving Jesus. You should be a part of at least on ministry at your Church.

Some Saved people, get Saved and they do nothing for Jesus their entire lives. God taking away their branch is symbolic of them not bearing any fruit as a Christian. These Christian’s outwardly appear just like any Lost person. Please do not be this type of Christian.

3 Now ye are clean through the word which I have spoken unto you.

4 Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, except it abide in the vine; no more can ye, except ye abide in me.

Verse 4- Christian’s need to Abide, Abide means to continue in. So to Abide in Jesus means you are continuing in the Christian Faith.

Unfortunately most Christian’s do not Abide in Jesus. Maybe they were Saved when they were Young. When they got older they forsook their Faith. Or they were Saved as an Adult. They later gave up going to Church because of meeting the “Love of their Life.” Because of this relationship they quit everything associated with being a Christian.

5 I am the vine, ye are the branches: He that abideth in me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit: for without me ye can do nothing.

6 If a man abide not in me, he is cast forth as a branch, and is withered; and men gather them, and cast them into the fire, and they are burned.

Verse 6- Does not mention Hell or Eternal Damnation because this is talking about a Christian who never served Jesus. It is foreshadowing the Judgment seat of Christ where all of our works as a Christian will be tried with fire.

7 If ye abide in me, and my words abide in you, ye shall ask what ye will, and it shall be done unto you.

8 Herein is my Father glorified, that ye bear much fruit; so shall ye be my disciples.

9 As the Father hath loved me, so have I loved you: continue ye in my love.

10 If ye keep my commandments, ye shall abide in my love; even as I have kept my Father’s commandments, and abide in his love.

11 These things have I spoken unto you, that my joy might remain in you, and that your joy might be full.

Verse 11- If you are Saved than you should always be full of Joy. The Joy of your Salvation. If you are a person who is always, unthankful, depressed, unhappy than maybe you are not Saved. Yes I seriously question your Salvation.

12 This is my commandment, That ye love one another, as I have loved you. 13 Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends.

14 Ye are my friends, if ye do whatsoever I command you.

15 Henceforth I call you not servants; for the servant knoweth not what his lord doeth: but I have called you friends; for all things that I have heard of my Father I have made known unto you.

16 Ye have not chosen me, but I have chosen you, and ordained you, that ye should go and bring forth fruit, and that your fruit should remain: that whatsoever ye shall ask of the Father in my name, he may give it you.

17 These things I command you, that ye love one another.

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.

Verses 17,18 and 19- Christian’s are suppose to Love one another and Hate the world. You can spot Fake Christian’s by how worldly they are. Outside the Church they want nothing to do with you or God. They spend their lives being a Friend to the World committing all their Sins. They are loved by the World.

This includes all the “Celebrity Christian’s.” If they are on TV, a Movie Star they are not Saved. Yes I will say this because to be cast in Films, to be a Celebrity of any kind you have to become part of their club. Yes all Celebrities are involved in Satanism. There are numerous books and videos about this. Do a little research and you will see this is true.

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.

25 But this cometh to pass, that the word might be fulfilled that is written in their law, They hated me without a cause.

26 But when the Comforter is come, whom I will send unto you from the Father, even the Spirit of truth, which proceedeth from the Father, he shall testify of me:

27 And ye also shall bear witness, because ye have been with me from the beginning.

To be Saved. Believe the Gospel. Ask Jesus to Save you.

1 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:

It is essential to know that your Spouse, your Children. Every member of your family is Saved. Make sure you tell them how you were Saved. If they do not give the correct answer on how to be Saved. You need to pray for them and tell them: “That is not how to be Saved.” “This is how to be Saved.” Show them in the Bible.

Have them read the Book of Romans and the book of John and go back to them and show them in the Bible how to be Saved.

Do not assume that everyone in your Church is Saved. Do not assume because a person says they are a Christian that they are really Saved.

Numerous people who have no Faith in Jesus. Pretend to be Christian’s. I have seen this in my life many times. Once I was at my Pastor’s home. His two daughters plus another Female told me we were not at Church. So I needed to stop being such a big Christian. “My Dad is not here for you to try and impress.”

I was trying to have a Christian conversation and they would not allow that. I realized they were not Saved. One of them offered to have Sex with me. They were pretending to be Christian’s. I left before their parents came home.

Matthew Chapter 7 tells us what will happen to people who Falsely claim they are a Christian. Many will think they are Saved. Because they were very Devout to their False Christianity.

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.

16 Ye shall know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles?
17 Even so every good tree bringeth forth good fruit; but a corrupt tree bringeth forth evil fruit.
18 A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit.
19 Every tree that bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire.
20 Wherefore by their fruits ye shall know them.
21 Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven.
22 Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works?
23 And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.
