Jesus Loves You. Jesus Is Our Friend.

Jesus is our Friend

Many Christians are always Depressed. They do not understand that Jesus is our Friend. Jesus is our Best Friend. We just need to reach out to him in prayer. Jesus Loves You, is not just a fun to sing Christian Children’s song it is the Truth.

Proverbs 18:24 “…there is a friend that sticketh closer than a brother.”

You are never alone. Jesus is always with you. Everyone may leave you during the toughest times, but Jesus will be there Carrying you.

You may be really suffering right now. JESUS LOVES YOU. He will help you. He will Comfort you.  You just need to Accept his Comforting.

You may be homeless, living on the streets. Addicted to Drugs, Alcohol or something else.

Where ever you are at right now in life, no matter if you are sitting in an alley getting your fix on or in another bad situation Jesus Loves You and wants to Save you from yourself. (Jesus will Save you right now, if you ask him to.) Jesus is the Only one who can Clean You Up.

Philippians 4:13 “I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me.”

Mark 9:23 “Jesus said unto him, If thou canst believe, all things are possible to him that believeth.”

Jesus will pull you up out of any gutter you many find yourself in. A gutter can be a rut you are in. Your Christian Life stalled out because you, have lost your faith…

If you are going through something Bad in your Life. Jesus can help you. He will Comfort you. He will take away your pain.

Maybe you are dealing with bad news…
You could be suffering because your child just died…

Life is very tough. Blaming Jesus is some people’s 1st reaction to terrible things that happen. A child dying is impossible to deal with without Jesus.

One thing you can know every child that dies is with Jesus. People have lost all the will to live because of the loss of their child… For other reasons.

The answer is not to give up. Pray, Cry Out to Jesus.

“Jesus I am hurting so much right now I have lost my will to live. Please help me right now Jesus. I do not know what to do….”

There are times we have to Lean on the Love of Jesus.

Jesus Loves You SO MUCH… HE DIED FOR YOU. He paid the Penalty for All of your Sins.

Romans 5:6 For when we were yet without strength, in due time Christ died for the ungodly.
7 For scarcely for a righteous man will one die: yet peradventure for a good man some would even dare to die.
8 But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.
9 Much more then, being now justified by his blood, we shall be saved from wrath through him.
10 For if, when we were enemies, we were reconciled to God by the death of his Son, much more, being reconciled, we shall be saved by his life.

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:

Jesus Loves You so much he Died to Save you. Just pray and ask Jesus to Save you if you have not. Believe on Jesus Death, Burial and Resurrection as the only payment for your Sins. You can do nothing to Save yourself.

If you are Saved than you know you can trust Jesus to help you, to Comfort you.

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

Many men, women, even children have sacrificed their lives to Save another person’s Life. This is the Greatest Love any Person can show, Dying to Save someone.

We all face our own mortality. Maybe you have just heard, you or someone you love has a sickness that could lead to death. Turn this over to Jesus. Jesus Loves You.

All Sorrow, all Grief turn over to Jesus.

Isaiah 53:3 “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.”

Grief is Deep Sorrow, a painful feeling often caused by suffering a great loss.

Jesus is always there for you when you need him. When you are feeling pain, are full of Grief, Jesus is right there with you.

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

Jesus hath borne our Griefs, and carried our Sorrows.
Wow!!!

Jesus understands all of our Pain. When the Bible says Jesus hath borne our Griefs and carried our Sorrows that means Jesus will take away your Pain and all of your Sorrows if you let him.

Jesus takes our Griefs and carries our Sorrows because he Loves us. Jesus Loves You.

Myself, I deal with grief by closing myself off to the entire world. I pray… I cry… I read the Bible…

I listen to music. A great song of hope is:

What a Friend we have in Jesus
By Joseph M. Scriven, 1855

What a friend we have in Jesus,
All our sins and griefs to bear!
What a privilege to carry
Everything to God in prayer!
Oh, what peace we often forfeit,
Oh, what needless pain we bear,
All because we do not carry
Everything to God in prayer!

Have we trials and temptations?
Is there trouble anywhere?
We should never be discouraged—
Take it to the Lord in prayer.
Can we find a friend so faithful,
Who will all our sorrows share?
Jesus knows our every weakness;
Take it to the Lord in prayer.

Are we weak and heavy-laden,
Cumbered with a load of care?
Precious Savior, still our refuge—
Take it to the Lord in prayer.
Do thy friends despise, forsake thee?
Take it to the Lord in prayer!
In His arms He’ll take and shield thee,
Thou wilt find a solace there.

Blessed Savior, Thou hast promised
Thou wilt all our burdens bear;
May we ever, Lord, be bringing
All to Thee in earnest prayer.
Soon in glory bright, unclouded,
There will be no need for prayer—
Rapture, praise, and endless worship
Will be our sweet portion there.
Amen.

God Bless You.

Jesus Loves You.

“…Yea, Hath God Said…”

Satan has completely Destroyed The “Christian” Church. Pastors every service say: “…Yea, Hath God Said…” They do this when they Question and Correct the Word of God.

Satan started off questioning God’s Word. “YEA, HATH GOD SAID?” His Counterfeit “Christian” Churches question God’s Word daily. They Twist the meaning of the Bible just like their god Satan.

“Christian” Churches are nothing more than Social Clubs. Places to be Entertained. Some Churches have Hollywood Level Music / Singing Productions.  They even call these Productions Shows.  Excuse me Singing in Church is not a Show! If it is a Show it is not Christian and you are not in a Church.  God is not in these Churches.

Counterfeit Christian Churches go from one extreme to another.

From Night Clubs to Legalistic. Neither Preach the Truth of God’s Word. Both attract crowds who want to get to Heaven their own way.

Christians are Lazy and ignorant of the Bible.

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.

Yes, Christians you can apply Hosea’s condemnation of God’s people being Destroyed directly to the Christian Church. Because just like the children of Israel the “Christian” Church has rejected God. Has rejected God’s Word.

Lack of knowledge is exactly what I see everyday from “Christians.”

I cannot even have an intelligent conversation in person or online with “Christians.” Because they completely lack any knowledge of God’s Word.

What I get is ignorant statements: “Jesus rejected the Gentiles…” “2 Chronicles 7:14 is for the USA. Christians need to Repent of their Sins and return to God…” “The Jewish Nation of Israel has been replaced by the Christian Church.”

Today’s Christian Church:

Hosea 4:7 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.

Hosea 4:6-11Is the current state of today’s Christianity. It is a Christianity that has rejected Jesus for the god’s of this world. It is a Counterfeit Christianity. It is not the Christianity Jesus and his Apostle’s gave us. The SINS of Christianity mimic the SINS of this Satanic World.

The Heart of this Counterfeit Christianity is Black Full of Sin.

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

True Christianity is Biblical, Loves God’s Word.

Everyday when I witness to people, “Christians,” (The Lost Religious people.) will argue with me. They use tired unbiblical arguments they have learned from False Teachers.

They take scriptures out of context, when they even use the scriptures. Most of what they say to me are questions, based on their False Beliefs:

“You think you can go to Heaven if you have unrepentant sin… Really?”

Like Satan they question God’s Word.

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?”

Every False Teaching starts with Questioning God’s Word.

The problem is almost everyone is too lazy to read and study the Bible. People are told from their youth that the Bible is impossible to understand. “You must trust what you hear in your Church.” “Never question the Pastor.”

Most people will not read the Bible let alone study it. They will read books written by False Teachers though. Watch them on TV.

When they Argue with me they think they are Authorities on God, on Christianity. They are so Arrogant. When I expose them for their lack of Bible knowledge they Swear at me and Viciously Attack me Personally.

These are the Hypocrites that fill our Churches.

They just play Church, falsely thinking of themselves as spiritual because they listen to Contemporary Christian Music and go to Church every Sunday. They think they can correct everyone they disagree with. They instantly become Vile when they are made to look ignorant.

Do not be like these Lost Counterfeit “Christians.”

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.”

Many things People / Churches Base their Faith on are not found in the Bible:

Praying to the Dead. Praying to Mary. Sacraments. Repent of Sin to be Saved. Turn From Sin to be Saved. Forsake Sin to Be Saved. Give Your Life To Jesus to be Saved.

Surrender your Life to Jesus – I Surrender All. Being Saved Means to Have a Relationship with Jesus. All of these trite sayings are unbiblical and will Save No One.

Let’s look at Sacraments:

The 7 Sacraments 1) Baptism 2) Confirmation 3) Eucharist 4) Penance 5) Anointing of the sick 6) Holy Orders 7) Matrimony

Guess what Jesus / God did not give us 7 or any number of Sacraments.

Baptism as a Sacrament is infant Baptism, to take away original Sin. This is not found in the Bible anywhere.

Confirmation Is done at different ages by different Denominations and Faiths. Catholic’s, Jews, and many Protestant Churches have Confirmations for children between 12-17 years old. It is a celebration of becoming a man or a woman. It is suppose to strengthen their Faith. Again not in the Bible.

Eucharist is the wafer (Catholic’s and other Faith’s) that becomes the actual literal flesh of Jesus. At Mass, every Catholic service the Priest puts this wafer or Jesus flesh into everyone’s mouth…. Not remotely Biblical.

Penance
noun
1. voluntary self-punishment inflicted as an outward expression of repentance for having done wrong:”he had done public penance for those hasty words”
2. a sacrament in which a member of the Church confesses sins to a priest and is given absolution.
verb
1. impose a penance on:

Penance is not Biblical.

Anointing of the sick. The Bible does not have any Sacraments. Making this a Sacrament is not Biblical.

Holy Orders Again not in the Bible.

Matrimony The Bible does not have any Sacraments. Making this a Sacrament is not Biblical.

All Catholic and most non Catholic Churches like the Methodists, and the Lutherans have Sacraments as part of their faith.

You must ask yourself before you adopt what any Church teaches: “What does the Bible say?”

If the Bible does not teach it than do not Believe it. Do not Do it.

The Lie taught in Baptist Churches, actually almost all Churches teach this Lie:

“Repent of your Sins to be Saved.” Said other ways: “You have to Forsake all Sin to be Saved.” “Turn from your Sins to be Saved.”

The Bible does not teach this. You will not find this in the Bible.

What did Jesus Teach about how to be Saved:

This is what Jesus told Nicodemus when he was confused about how to be Born Again, how to be Saved.

John 3:9 Nicodemus answered and said unto him, How can these things be?
10 Jesus answered and said unto him, Art thou a master of Israel, and knowest not these things?
11 Verily, verily, I say unto thee, We speak that we do know, and testify that we have seen; and ye receive not our witness.
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.
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.

What did Jesus’s Disciples teach:

Galatians 1:2 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.
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.

The Gospel came from Jesus, not from Paul or any other man.

The Gospel: 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:

Jesus taught to be Saved you must believe the Gospel Only.
The Gospel is believing that Jesus Died, was Buried and Rose again to pay for the Sins of the World.

Notice Jesus did not say to Repent of Sins, to Forsake Sin, to Turn from Sin to be Saved.

Please Believe the Gospel Only. Please ask Jesus to Save you right now if you have not.

Hell Is Real.

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

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

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

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

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

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

Is 100% Biblical. 

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

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

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

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

Hell in the book of Revelation.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

How does Jesus Save a person from their Sins?

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

To Save From Hell is Part of the Gospel.

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

The Gospel:

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

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

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

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

Saved from the Wrath of God. Saved from Hell.

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

Jesus Took Our Deserved Punishment.

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

The Gospel in Isaiah.

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

5 But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed.

6 All we like sheep have gone astray; we have turned every one to his own way; and the LORD hath laid on him the iniquity of us all.

7 He was oppressed, and he was afflicted, yet he opened not his mouth: he is brought as a lamb to the slaughter, and as a sheep before her shearers is dumb, so he openeth not his mouth.

8 He was taken from prison and from judgment: and who shall declare his generation? For he was cut off out of the land of the living: for the transgression of my people was he stricken. 

9 And he made his grave with the wicked, and with the rich in his death; because he had done no violence, neither was any deceit in his mouth. 

10 Yet it pleased the LORD to bruise him; he hath put him to grief: when thou shalt make his soul an offering for sin, he shall see his seed, he shall prolong his days, and the pleasure of the LORD shall prosper in his hand. 

11 He shall see of the travail of his soul, and shall be satisfied: by his knowledge shall my righteous servant justify many; for he shall bear their iniquities. 

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Jesus Saves from Hell. From The Wrath of God.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Beware of False Teachers.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

A complete explanation of the Gospel.

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

Jesus Thank You. I Owe You Everything.

Can You Say, Jesus, Thank You. I Owe You Everything. And Mean It?

Everyday Life can be very busy. We might start to Neglect our Christian Responsibilities. At First we would be Excited and Happy to go to Church. We would volunteer for everything possible.  As time passes going to Church feels like a chore. We stop volunteering. We Stop saying: Jesus, Thank You. I Owe You Everything.

Everyone I Pray you will have a Blessed, Joyous, Day, Week, Weekend, Year.

Let’s Be Thankful For Jesus Everyday.

12 With a strong hand, and with a stretched out arm: for his mercy endureth for ever.

13 To him which divided the Red sea into parts: for his mercy endureth for ever: 14 And made Israel to pass through the midst of it: for his mercy endureth for ever:

15 But overthrew Pharaoh and his host in the Red sea: for his mercy endureth for ever.

1 Corinthians 15:50 Now this I say, brethren, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God; neither doth corruption inherit incorruption.

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

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

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

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

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

56 The sting of death is sin; and the strength of sin is the law.

57 But thanks be to God, which giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.

58 Therefore, my beloved brethren, be ye stedfast, unmovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, forasmuch as ye know that your labour is not in vain in the Lord. 

If you are a Christian You should be Thankful For Our Lord Jesus Christ. 

Holidays cause depression. Thanksgiving. Christmas. Easter. Birthdays. New Year’s.

Traditional events shared with Family and Friends bring tears and crying.

People we Loved have Died.  We miss them. We think back on the Happy Times we Shared with them and cry because they are no longer with us.

You might be completely ALONE, with no one to share your Life with.

These days have not always been full of Joy and Happiness which gives us bad memories.

How do we prevent depression? How do we Enjoy Days that Everyone Else is Celebrating?

Live everyday being Thankful for Jesus. Knowing how much Jesus suffered for us will put everything into perspective.

With Jesus In You, You can Be Happy. You Should Be Happy.

Jesus suffered more in his 33 year life than any other person. Jesus watched as his Disciples ran away from him. Judas B with a Kiss. He saw Peter Deny him. On the Cross God the Father left him alone to suffer bleed and die.  Yet Jesus endured all of this and more. He rose from the Grave to Save mankind from the penalty of their Sins. 

Jesus Is Always There For You. He Will Never Leave You.

Romans 8:38 For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come, 39 Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.

True Joy is spending time with Jesus. Rejoice, Praise Jesus for your Salvation.

The Greatest Joy in Life is Being Saved. Knowing You Will Be Going to Heaven to be with Jesus.

Habakkuk 3:18 “Yet I will rejoice in the LORD, I will joy in the God of my salvation.”

Philippians 4:4 “Rejoice in the Lord alway: and again I say, Rejoice.”

Psalms 46:1…God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble.
2 Therefore will not we fear, though the earth be removed, and though the mountains be carried into the midst of the sea;
3 Though the waters thereof roar and be troubled, though the mountains shake with the swelling thereof. Selah.
4 There is a river, the streams whereof shall make glad the city of God, the holy place of the tabernacles of the most High.
5 God is in the midst of her; she shall not be moved: God shall help her, and that right early.

I am Thankful everyday for Jesus.

Jesus Suffered, Bled and Died for me…. He took my place, Dying for All of my Sins. He Paid The Price for All of my Sins.

Jesus has a purpose for me so I am Thankful for my Salvation and that Jesus wants to use me.

If you do Cry, and are Sad, know that Jesus Cried in the Bible. He Cried for Lazaras, for Jerusalem. 

Luke 19:41 And when he was come near, he beheld the city, and wept over it,

42 Saying, If thou hadst known, even thou, at least in this thy day, the things which belong unto thy peace! but now they are hid from thine eyes.

43 For the days shall come upon thee, that thine enemies shall cast a trench about thee, and compass thee round, and keep thee in on every side,

44 And shall lay thee even with the ground, and thy children within thee; and they shall not leave in thee one stone upon another; because thou knewest not the time of thy visitation.

45 And he went into the temple, and began to cast out them that sold therein, and them that bought;

46 Saying unto them, It is written, My house is the house of prayer: but ye have made it a den of thieves.

47 And he taught daily in the temple. But the chief priests and the scribes and the chief of the people sought to destroy him,

48 And could not find what they might do: for all the people were very attentive to hear him.

Jesus cried when Lazarus died. 

John 11:32 Then when Mary was come where Jesus was, and saw him, she fell down at his feet, saying unto him, Lord, if thou hadst been here, my brother had not died.

33 When Jesus therefore saw her weeping, and the Jews also weeping which came with her, he groaned in the spirit, and was troubled,

34 And said, Where have ye laid him? They said unto him, Lord, come and see.

35 Jesus wept.

36 Then said the Jews, Behold how he loved him!

37 And some of them said, Could not this man, which opened the eyes of the blind, have caused that even this man should not have died?

38 Jesus therefore again groaning in himself cometh to the grave. It was a cave, and a stone lay upon it.

39 Jesus said, Take ye away the stone. Martha, the sister of him that was dead, saith unto him, Lord, by this time he stinketh: for he hath been dead four days.

40 Jesus saith unto her, Said I not unto thee, that, if thou wouldest believe, thou shouldest see the glory of God?

41 Then they took away the stone from the place where the dead was laid. And Jesus lifted up his eyes, and said, Father, I thank thee that thou hast heard me. 42 And I knew that thou hearest me always: but because of the people which stand by I said it, that they may believe that thou hast sent me.

43 And when he thus had spoken, he cried with a loud voice, Lazarus, come forth. 44 And he that was dead came forth, bound hand and foot with graveclothes: and his face was bound about with a napkin. Jesus saith unto them, Loose him, and let him go.

45 Then many of the Jews which came to Mary, and had seen the things which Jesus did, believed on him.

46 But some of them went their ways to the Pharisees, and told them what things Jesus had done.  

Jesus Loves Everyone of Us. He Cries for us. Jesus Wept for Lazarus. Jesus Loved Lazarus. 

Yes, it is OK to be Sad, to Cry. But do not be consumed by your Grief, your Sorrow.

In the Bible Jesus was full of sorrow. He cried. But he did not let his sorrow, his tears, control him. He quickly moved on from crying and sorrow and went back to his work.

Jesus Life was full of suffering. Jesus suffered for us.

Isaiah 53:3 “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.”

Being Emotional is Normal. Put everything into perspective. Do not let sorrow control you.

Jesus suffering gave us Salvation. Understand that Jesus Rose from the Dead which completed his Atonement for all of our Sins.

Jesus Resurrection is Joyous.

Everything that causes us to suffer in this Life has a purpose. All of our suffering will be Turned into Joy. We will spend Eternity in Heaven with Jesus.

The Bible Tells us to Rejoice. So Please always Rejoice and be Thankful. Enjoy Everyday.

Luke 10:20 “Notwithstanding in this rejoice not, that the spirits are subject unto you; but rather rejoice, because your names are written in heaven.”

Psalms 97:12 “Rejoice in the LORD, ye righteous; and give thanks at the remembrance of his holiness.”

1 Peter 1:8 “Whom having not seen, ye love; in whom, though now ye see him not, yet believing, ye rejoice with joy unspeakable and full of glory:”

Philippians 4:4 Rejoice in the Lord alway: and again I say, Rejoice.

5 Let your moderation be known unto all men. The Lord is at hand.

6 Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God.

7 And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.

8 Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things. 9 Those things, which ye have both learned, and received, and heard, and seen in me, do: and the God of peace shall be with you.

Our Lives are suppose to full of Joy because of Jesus. Jesus Thank You, I Owe You Everything.

Please Believe and Share the Gospel.

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:

Willful Sin? Explaining Hebrews Chapter 10.

Willful Sin? You cannot Sin Accidently. Read Hebrews Chapter 10. 

Think about yourself. Your Sins. Many Sins we commit we have to work up to doing them. We dream about Sinning. We do not accidently Sin. All Sin is Willful Sin. A well known Truth. “Shelly accidently got Pregnant.” The Dad and Mom say, “Son Shelly is Pregnant because she had Sex. Sex is an intentional act, not an accident.”

Willful Sin? Salvation Explained.

Ephesians 1:12 That we should be to the praise of his glory, who first trusted in Christ.
13 In whom ye also [trusted], after that ye heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation: in whom also after that ye believed, ye were sealed with that holy Spirit of promise,

Ephesians 1:12,13 clearly explains how to be Saved. Salvation = Eternal Life. Sealed with the Holy Spirit of promise is Eternal Security.

(“…who first trusted in Christ.”) Trust = Faith

Salvation happens as soon as a person Trusts, puts their Faith in Jesus only to Save them. Willful Sin Does Not Take Away Your Salvation.

Faith / Trust / Belief in the Gospel = Saved from Hell. The Book of Romans has the most Salvation verses in it. Romans does not Say you will Go to Hell for Willful Sin. Romans Chapters 3, 5, and 10 are very Powerful. It is Essential for the Soul Winner to Memorize these Chapters.

Romans 3:22 Even the righteousness of God which is by faith of Jesus Christ unto all and upon all them that believe: for there is no difference:
23 For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;
24 Being justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus:
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.

The Gospel.

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:

Sealed = Eternal Life = Eternal Security = You can never Lose your Salvation.

Ephesians 4:30 “And grieve not the holy Spirit of God, whereby ye are sealed unto the day of redemption.”

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.”

1 John 5:9 If we receive the witness of men, the witness of God is greater: for this is the witness of God which he hath testified of his Son.
10 He that believeth on the Son of God hath the witness in himself: he that believeth not God hath made him a liar; because he believeth not the record that God gave of his Son.
11 And this is the record, that God hath given to us eternal life, and this life is in his Son.
12 He that hath the Son hath life; and he that hath not the Son of God hath not life.
13 These things have I written unto you that believe on the name of the Son of God; that ye may know that ye have eternal life, and that ye may believe on the name of the Son of God.

Salvation is Eternal, Never Ending. Eternal Life Means Willful Sin will Not Take Away Your Salvation.

Numerous False Teachers: Pastor’s, Evangelists, Writers, and people in general. Teach that a Christian can lose their Salvation. They Claim they do not commit Willful Sin. They are Liars. Every Sin we commit is Willful Sin. These Counterfeit Christians, Mock OSAS, Once Saved Always Saved. They Deny Eternal Security.

Believe what the Bible teaches. Not people who twist the Scriptures. The Bible does not contradict itself.

Hebrews 10:26 is a popular verse False Teachers use. It is their Willful Sin Text verse. To Falsely teach that a Christian can Lose their Salvation.

Hebrews 10:26 “For if we sin wilfully after that we have received the knowledge of the truth, there remaineth no more sacrifice for sins,”

This verse, this passage Does Not say a Saved person has Lost, or can Lose their Salvation. By committing Willful Sin.

Paul is saying: I have told you it is a Sin to continue with Temple sacrifices. If we wilfully Sin. (Keep going to the Temple. For animal sacrifices. After I have told you not to.) There remaineth no more Sacrifice for Sins.  The continued Temple sacrifices Mocked Jesus one time Blood Atonement for Sins. There is No More Sacrifices for Sin. Because Jesus Already made the One and Only Needed Blood Sacrifice. For All of the Sins of the World.

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

Hebrews Chapter 10 teaches Jesus is the only Sacrifice for Sins. His Sacrifice was a One time Only Sacrifice. To Eternally Pay for All of the Sins of the World. Thus the Temple Sacrifices for Sin, is Not an Actual Sacrifice for Sins.

To continue with the Temple sacrifices was willfully Sinning against God. This Act was Denying Jesus Blood Atonement.

Never base any doctrine on only one verse. Willful Sin is not unforgivable. The only way to understand the Bible is by understanding the context of the verse(s) you are studying.

The purpose of Hebrews Chapter 10 is to Stop Believing Jews from continuing in the temple ritual. Jesus Fulfilled this already. In his Incarnation, his Life, and his Blood Atonement. It is Wrong to continue with an elaborate system of rituals. Which spoke of the coming Savior. Foretold his future Death on the Cross, His Burial, and His Resurrection to Save mankind. After Jesus already Fulfilled this.

Still performing these rituals is saying, that Jesus was not the Messiah. And His Death was Not Valid. Doing so was WILLFUL SIN. There is no more Sacrifice for Sin. Jesus already made the Only Eternal Life Saving Sacrifice for Sin.

Continuing with the Foreshadowing Temple Sacrifices after Jesus Blood Atonement was WILLFUL SIN. This practice Denied and Disowned Jesus. It Destroyed the Faith of Those who Persisted in it.  

Further Explanation of Hebrews Chapter 10 and of Willful Sin. 

Hebrews 10 is teaching that the Law Foreshadowed Jesus coming Salvation. His coming Sacrifice for Sin, for all Sin. It teaches Jesus one sacrifice for Sin was enough to pay for the Sins of the Whole World. That to Continue with Temple sacrifices was to deny Jesus Saving Blood Atonement.  

Hebrews 10:1 For the law having a shadow of good things to come, and not the very image of the things, can never with those sacrifices which they offered year by year continually make the comers thereunto perfect.

2 For then would they not have ceased to be offered? because that the worshippers once purged should have had no more conscience of sins.

3 But in those sacrifices there is a remembrance again made of sins every year.

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

5 Wherefore when he cometh into the world, he saith, Sacrifice and offering thou wouldest not, but a body hast thou prepared me:

6 In burnt offerings and sacrifices for sin thou hast had no pleasure.

7 Then said I, Lo, I come (in the volume of the book it is written of me,) to do thy will, O God.

8 Above when he said, Sacrifice and offering and burnt offerings and offering for sin thou wouldest not, neither hadst pleasure therein; which are offered by the law;

9 Then said he, Lo, I come to do thy will, O God. He taketh away the first, that he may establish the second.

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

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

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

By continuing in the Jewish temple ritual, these Jews were committing Sin. Every time they participated in an animal sacrifice. They were saying that Jesus Died in Vain. This really is “Trampling” Him under foot. Regarding His Blood, His Death on the Cross, as “Unclean”. This is “Violently Insulting” the Spirit who testifies to Him and to the Validity of His Atonement.

Hebrews 10:19 Having therefore, brethren, boldness to enter into the holiest by the blood of Jesus,
20 By a new and living way, which he hath consecrated for us, through the veil, that is to say, his flesh;
21 And having an high priest over the house of God;
22 Let us draw near with a true heart in full assurance of faith, having our hearts sprinkled from an evil conscience, and our bodies washed with pure water.
23 Let us hold fast the profession of our faith without wavering; (for he is faithful that promised;)
24 And let us consider one another to provoke unto love and to good works:
25 Not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as the manner of some is; but exhorting one another: and so much the more, as ye see the day approaching.

26 For if we sin wilfully after that we have received the knowledge of the truth, there remaineth no more sacrifice for sins,

27 But a certain fearful looking for of judgment and fiery indignation, which shall devour the adversaries.
28 He that despised Moses’ law died without mercy under two or three witnesses:
29 Of how much sorer punishment, suppose ye, shall he be thought worthy, who hath trodden under foot the Son of God, and hath counted the blood of the covenant, wherewith he was sanctified, an unholy thing, and hath done despite unto the Spirit of grace?
30 For we know him that hath said, Vengeance belongeth unto me, I will recompense, saith the Lord. And again, The Lord shall judge his people.

31 It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God.

32 But call to remembrance the former days, in which, after ye were illuminated, ye endured a great fight of afflictions;
33 Partly, whilst ye were made a gazingstock both by reproaches and afflictions; and partly, whilst ye became companions of them that were so used.
34 For ye had compassion of me in my bonds, and took joyfully the spoiling of your goods, knowing in yourselves that ye have in heaven a better and an enduring substance.
35 Cast not away therefore your confidence, which hath great recompence of reward.
36 For ye have need of patience, that, after ye have done the will of God, ye might receive the promise.
37 For yet a little while, and he that shall come will come, and will not tarry.
38 Now the just shall live by faith: but if any man draw back, my soul shall have no pleasure in him.
39 But we are not of them who draw back unto perdition; but of them that believe to the saving of the soul.

Paul was dealing with Jewish believers who wanted to return to the Law to avoid persecution. The passage then is two-fold.

First to deal with Apostasy (10:19-25). Second to provide Encouragement to Grow Spiritually (10:32-39).

It is not Apostasy towards Judaism, it is Apostasy from Jesus Christ. Apostasy away from The Lord Jesus Christ who is the Final and only Saving Sacrifice.

Paul warns: Willful Sin, is a Presumptuous Sin Like in:

Numbers 15:30 But the soul that doeth [ought] presumptuously, [whether he be] born in the land, or a stranger, the same reproacheth the LORD; and that soul shall be cut off from among his people.
31 Because he hath despised the word of the LORD, and hath broken his commandment, that soul shall utterly be cut off; his iniquity [shall be] upon him.

Understanding that presumptuous sins had no sacrifice is critical to understanding the text at hand.

The Law of Moses had sacrifices for any number of Sins outlined in Leviticus. 

If the sin was presumptuous, done intentionally, there was no sacrifice. The individual was now under the direct judgment of God Almighty.

“…but a fearful expectation of judgment, and fiery indignation which will devour the adversaries.” – Heb. 10:27.  Jews and Gentile would have been well acquainted with the Levitical law stated. They would have known that Physical Death not Eternal Damnation was the punishment.

Judgment, Fiery indignation, is a picture of a Jealous God. God was forced, because of His Holiness, to deal with his children severely (Heb. 12:6).

We are held secure by the power and promises of God (John 10:28). The judgment in view cannot be Hell / the Lake of Fire.

The judgment is physical death not Eternal Damnation. The promises of the Law were never Eternal Salvation. Keeping the Law was to assure God’s continued Blessing in their Life. Law Keeping was not a Contract to Heaven.

In fact, noticeably absent in all the warnings is Hell / the Lake of Fire. There is a thought among Christians that God’s Love will override his justice. That his Love will override his holiness in dealing with His people. However, there are many examples where God dealt with His people severely.

Numbers 11:1 And when the people complained, it displeased the Lord: and the Lord heard it; and his anger was kindled; and the fire of the Lord burnt among them, and consumed them that were in the uttermost parts of the camp. 2 And the people cried unto Moses; and when Moses prayed unto the Lord, the fire was quenched. 3 And he called the name of the place Taberah: because the fire of the Lord burnt among them.

Ananias and Sapphira were put to death for their Sin. (Acts 5:1-11).

Acts 5:4 Whiles it remained, was it not thine own? and after it was sold, was it not in thine own power? why hast thou conceived this thing in thine heart? thou hast not lied unto men, but unto God. 5 And Ananias hearing these words fell down, and gave up the ghost: and great fear came on all them that heard these things.

These are examples of physical death as the Judgment of God.

An example from the Old Testament and an example from the New Testament. Notice the Judgment against them was only physical Death. There was no sentence of Eternal Damnation.

All too often, Christians immediately think of Fire and / or udgment in anger as speaking of Hell. This would be akin to believing that every time blood was spoken of in scripture, it was Christ’s blood.

Christians Judged: (see Rom. 14:10-12; 1 Cor. 3:11-15; 2 Cor. 5;10) This may or may not be a time of rejoicing for that individual at the Judgment Seat of Christ. It will not be a Judgment that ends in Eternal Damnation. Jesus Judgment at the Judgment Seat of Christ is not a Judgment on Sins. It is a judgment on Christian Service. Again all Judgment by God in the Bible is not for Eternal Damnation.

The indignation spoken of in Hebrews Chapter 10 is Not for Eternal Condemnation. It is to cause a Saved Sinner to change their conduct. This is an expression of God’s Love.

Hebrews 12:5 And ye have forgotten the exhortation which speaketh unto you as unto children, My son, despise not thou the chastening of the Lord, nor faint when thou art rebuked of him:

6 For whom the Lord loveth he chasteneth, and scourgeth every son whom he receiveth. 7 If ye endure chastening, God dealeth with you as with sons; for what son is he whom the father chasteneth not?

8 But if ye be without chastisement, whereof all are partakers, then are ye bastards, and not sons.

9 Furthermore we have had fathers of our flesh which corrected us, and we gave them reverence: shall we not much rather be in subjection unto the Father of spirits, and live? 10 For they verily for a few days chastened us after their own pleasure; but he for our profit, that we might be partakers of his holiness.

11 Now no chastening for the present seemeth to be joyous, but grievous: nevertheless afterward it yieldeth the peaceable fruit of righteousness unto them which are exercised thereby.

In Conclusion.

Hebrews 10:26-27 is not a warning against Loss of Salvation. Neither is it discussing Unbelievers, Hellfire, and Persistent Sin.

This passage is to believers that were leaving Jesus for Judaism to avoid persecution. While they thought persecution from man was bad. Paul makes them aware that God dealing with them could be just as bad or even more severe.

Paul is imploring them to recognize the significance and the power of Jesus in their lives. He is attempting to motivate them to grow to maturity.

The Gospel Of Jesus Christ.

The Gospel of Jesus Christ is the Power of God.

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.”

Christians do not be Afraid to share the Gospel. Proudly Share the Gospel of Jesus Christ.

Satan Twists God’s Word. Denies the True Gospel. Invents his own False Gospel.

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

Most people trust the most important decision in their life to other people. The Gospel of Jesus Christ is the Power of God unto Salvation.

The Bible clearly explains Salvation:

Romans 1:15 So, as much as in me is, I am ready to preach the gospel to you that are at Rome also.

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.

17 For therein is the righteousness of God revealed from faith to faith: as it is written, The just shall live by faith.

The Gospel:

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

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

The Bible warns against Believing Another Gospel.

Galatians 1:6 I marvel that ye are so soon removed from him that called you into the grace of Christ unto another gospel:

7 Which is not another; but there be some that trouble you, and would pervert the gospel of Christ.

8 But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel unto you than that which we have preached unto you, let him be accursed.

9 As we said before, so say I now again, If any man preach any other gospel unto you than that ye have received, let him be accursed.

Most Churches teach that Jesus never Taught / Preached the Gospel. That we cannot follow Jesus’s Teachings. They reject the Gospel’s, Matthew, Mark, Luke and John. Putting them in the Old Testament.

According to them. We can only take Salvation passages from some of Apostle Paul’s books. They even deny parts of Paul’s books. Because of their Dispensationalist False Doctrine. They reject Romans chapter 10 and the entire book of Hebrews. Saying they apply only to the Jews.

Jesus did teach the Gospel:

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

Verse 22 is the Gospel plain and Clear.

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

More verses:

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

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

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

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

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

John 2:19 Jesus answered and said unto them, Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up.

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

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

The Bible is Clear: Jesus Taught the Gospel.

Mark 1:1 makes this Perfectly Clear:

Mark 1:1 The beginning of the gospel of Jesus Christ, the Son of God; 2 As it is written in the prophets, Behold, I send my messenger before thy face, which shall prepare thy way before thee. 3 The voice of one crying in the wilderness, Prepare ye the way of the Lord, make his paths straight.

Jesus taught to be Saved All a person has to do is to Believe in him.

Jewish people knew the Scriptures foretold of the coming Messiah. Who would Save them from their Sins.

When Jesus said to Believe on me to have Eternal Life. They understood he was the promised Messiah. That would Save them from the Penalty of all of their Sins.

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

The Scriptures that foretold the Gospel, Jesus the coming Messiah:

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

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

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

Immanuel: “God with us.”

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

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

7 Of the increase of his government and peace there shall be no end, upon the throne of David, and upon his kingdom, to order it, and to establish it with judgment and with justice from henceforth even for ever. The zeal of the LORD of hosts will perform this.

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

Isaiah 53:1 Who hath believed our report? and to whom is the arm of the Lord revealed?
2 For he shall grow up before him as a tender plant, and as a root out of a dry ground: he hath no form nor comeliness; and when we shall see him, there is no beauty that we should desire him.
3 He is despised and rejected of men; a man of sorrows, and acquainted with grief: and we hid as it were our faces from him; he was despised, and we esteemed him not.
4 Surely he hath borne our griefs, and carried our sorrows: yet we did esteem him stricken, smitten of God, and afflicted.

5 But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed.

6 All we like sheep have gone astray; we have turned every one to his own way; and the Lord hath laid on him the iniquity of us all.
7 He was oppressed, and he was afflicted, yet he opened not his mouth: he is brought as a lamb to the slaughter, and as a sheep before her shearers is dumb, so he openeth not his mouth.
8 He was taken from prison and from judgment: and who shall declare his generation? for he was cut off out of the land of the living: for the transgression of my people was he stricken.
9 And he made his grave with the wicked, and with the rich in his death; because he had done no violence, neither was any deceit in his mouth.

10 Yet it pleased the Lord to bruise him; he hath put him to grief: when thou shalt make his soul an offering for sin, he shall see his seed, he shall prolong his days, and the pleasure of the Lord shall prosper in his hand. 11 He shall see of the travail of his soul, and shall be satisfied: by his knowledge shall my righteous servant justify many; for he shall bear their iniquities.

12 Therefore will I divide him a portion with the great, and he shall divide the spoil with the strong; because he hath poured out his soul unto death: and he was numbered with the transgressors; and he bare the sin of many, and made intercession for the transgressors.

Old Testament Believers Believed The Gospel of Jesus Christ.

Animal sacrifices Saved No One:

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

The Old Testament sacrifices. Pointed towards the One Sacrifice that Jesus would make on the Cross to bring Eternal Salvation.

Like New Testament Believers. Old Testament Believers were Justified by Grace through Faith in the Lord Jesus Christ the coming Messiah.

Abraham

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

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

You must understand that there is Only One True Gospel. In Galatians 3 God preached the Gospel to Abraham.

Dispensationalism’s Biggest Lie is there are Many Different Gospel’s. 

These False Teachers Teach Multiple plans of Salvation, Multiple Gospel’s. The Bible says there is Only One True Gospel. There is Only One plan of Salvation for All of Humanity. Abraham put his Faith in Jesus Christ Only to Save him.

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

Fools Despise Wisdom And Instruction.

Fools Despise Wisdom And Instruction. This is a Bible Truth. It applies to both Saved and Lost people.

Proverbs 1:7 “The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge: but fools despise wisdom and instruction.”

This verse and the entire Chapter is very powerful. Why is the Fear of the Lord the beginning of knowledge? Matthew chapter 10 has the answer:

Matthew 10:24 The disciple is not above his master, nor the servant above his lord.

25 It is enough for the disciple that he be as his master, and the servant as his lord. If they have called the master of the house Beelzebub, how much more shall they call them of his household?

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

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

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

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

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

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

32 Whosoever therefore shall confess me before men, him will I confess also before my Father which is in heaven.

33 But whosoever shall deny me before men, him will I also deny before my Father which is in heaven.

A person has the beginning of knowledge when they realize they are a Lost Sinner that deserves to go to Hell, and understands that only God has the power to Save them or to throw them into Hell.

This is what the Fear of the Lord is and why it is good.

What does it mean to deny Jesus before men? It is to deny that Jesus is the only way to Heaven. Denying Jesus is to REJECT HIM, it is to DENY HE IS GOD. Many Churches / Religions Deny that Jesus is God. They teach Jesus was just another prophet sent by God. Others say to get to Heaven you need Jesus plus: Church membership, Water Baptism, Repent of Sin, Forsake Sin, Turn From Your Sins, Keeping the Sabbath…

People who do not believe on Jesus only to Save them. They deny the Bible.

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.”

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

Do you understand? Jesus is saying he is the only way to Heaven. You have to Believe on Him Only to be Saved: “He that believeth on me hath everlasting life.” It cannot get any clearer than this verse. Jesus did not say “Being Saved is a process with many steps…” “You have to Repent of all of your Sins.” “You must Forsake and Turn from all of your Sins.” To be Saved.

Jesus said: “He that believeth on me hath everlasting life.” This is immediate Salvation for just Believing on Jesus. Hath Everlasting Life means exactly that. You are Saved as soon as you Believe on Jesus.This is not an isolated teaching. The Bible says this over and over and over again.

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

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

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

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

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.

It could not be any more clear that Jesus is the only way to Heaven:

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.

Believeth in him… Believeth on him is not Condemned. These are Jesus own words. He does not add anything to Salvation. Believe in me only is what Jesus repeated countless times.

Believing on Jesus means you Believe he is the promised Messiah who died for the Sins of the World. To Believe the Gospel: Jesus Died, was Buried and Rose again to pay the penalty for all the Sins of the world. 

It is important to note that Jesus proclaimed that he was the promised Messiah. The people knew to Believe in Jesus meant to Believe he is the Promised Messiah. So to Believe on Him was to Believe that Jesus came to Die for the Sins of the World.

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.”

Again the fear of the Lord is what opens people’s eyes for their need for Salvation.

Proverbs 1:7 The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge: but fools despise wisdom and instruction.

8 My son, hear the instruction of thy father, and forsake not the law of thy mother:

9 For they shall be an ornament of grace unto thy head, and chains about thy neck.

10 My son, if sinners entice thee, consent thou not.

11 If they say, Come with us, let us lay wait for blood, let us lurk privily for the innocent without cause:

12 Let us swallow them up alive as the grave; and whole, as those that go down into the pit:

13 We shall find all precious substance, we shall fill our houses with spoil:

14 Cast in thy lot among us; let us all have one purse:

15 My son, walk not thou in the way with them; refrain thy foot from their path:

16 For their feet run to evil, and make haste to shed blood.

17 Surely in vain the net is spread in the sight of any bird.

18 And they lay wait for their own blood; they lurk privily for their own lives.

19 So are the ways of every one that is greedy of gain; which taketh away the life of the owners thereof.

The second part is that Fools despise instruction. And they are: running after EVIL. They are GREEDY for Wealth. Not caring who they hurt to get it.

I encounter these people often in my life, in person and online. These are the “Christians” that make unbiblical statements who post unbiblical posts online / on social media. They attack me personally for pointing out that what they said or posted is not Biblical.

Usually they start with making Sarcastic comments. Than they get more aggressive and attack me personally: “You think you are better than me.” “You think you know everything.” “It is not Christian to go around correcting other Christians.” (Excuse me if you are posting things online, commenting online than people have the right to either agree or disagree with what you have said.)

It is important to understand that Sarcasm is not being witty. This is the definition of Sarcasm:

Sarcasm: “The use of irony to mock or convey contempt.” Here are some sarcasm examples:

That mustard stain really compliments your blonde hair.

Just great! (When someone runs into you)
Love this weather. (When the weather is actually horrible)

Oh, he’s the best. (Talking about someone who actually annoys you.)

Everyone has someone in their life—possibly a boss, colleague, friend or parent who loves sarcastic, passive aggressive, barbed modes of communication. The underlining truth is that Sarcastic people have hate, contempt for the person they are being Sarcastic to. This has no place in Christianity.

It is essential to understand that just because a person says they are Saved, are a Christian does not mean it is true. In truth many are:

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.”

This is why people who are supposed to be a Christian suddenly start swearing at you and attacking you with the worst language you have ever heard. Oh yes these people have Jekyll and Hide personalities. They can act the part but as soon as they are challenged for their False Christianity they change instantly into the most vile attack dogs.

Experiencing this is shocking especially when you have had a long time relationship with this person or group of people. Suddenly everything you thought you knew about them is false. They are not who they claimed to be. This is so common online because it is easier to hide who you are. It does not just happen online though. I have been face to face with extreme hostility from people who claimed to be my Brothers and Sisters in Christ for up to 30 or more years. Everything is good until you question them. They hate to be questioned on their false beliefs.

This False Christianity comes directly from Satan.

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.”

2nd Corinthians 11:12 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.

Satan is a Liar who easily deceives people who are looking for an excuse to make themselves part of their own Salvation. These people actively attack the word of God while claiming to believe it.

Satan of old, has not changed his methods:

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?

2 And the woman said unto the serpent, We may eat of the fruit of the trees of the garden:

3 But of the fruit of the tree which is in the midst of the garden, God hath said, Ye shall not eat of it, neither shall ye touch it, lest ye die.

4 And the serpent said unto the woman, Ye shall not surely die:

5 For God doth know that in the day ye eat thereof, then your eyes shall be opened, and ye shall be as gods, knowing good and evil.

2nd Corinthians 2:11 “Lest Satan should get an advantage of us: for we are not ignorant of his devices.”

2nd Corinthians 11:3 But I fear, lest by any means, as the serpent beguiled Eve through his subtilty, so your minds should be corrupted from the simplicity that is in Christ.

4 For if he that cometh preacheth another Jesus, whom we have not preached, or if ye receive another spirit, which ye have not received, or another gospel, which ye have not accepted, ye might well bear with him.

Satan is always lying in wait to prevent people from accepting the Simple Gospel of Salvation. He is a roaring Lion:

1st Peter 5:8 “Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour:”

If you have not please ask Jesus to Save you right now:

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

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

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

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

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

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

Do not trust people just because they claim to be a Christian. Study the Bible and know what you believe so you can avoid Fake Christianity Fake Christians.

Christmas. Jesus Was Born To Save The World.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Salvation is clearly explained in the Bible:

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

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

We are Saved by believing the Gospel only.

The Gospel of Jesus Christ is the Power of God.

The Gospel:

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

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

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

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

Jesus did teach the Gospel:

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

Verse 22 is the Gospel plain and Clear.

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

More verses:

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

The Scriptures that foretold the coming Messiah:

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Old Testament Believers were not saved by animal sacrifices:

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

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

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

Abraham:

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

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

You must understand that there is only one true Gospel.

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

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

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

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

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

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

Judas Betrayed Jesus With A Kiss. Betrayal is Costly.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Yes, Jesus knew Judas would Betray him.

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

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

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

Judas’s Betrayal Deeply Hurt Jesus.

Betrayal, The Costs:

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Judas Rejected and Betrayed Jesus for money.

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

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

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

“What will you give me…”

Judas Greed: “What will you give me…”

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

The Answer for Betrayal is Not to Let them Win.

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

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

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

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

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

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

I told her that did not make her a Christian.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Jesus said to FEAR NOT!!!!

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

A Cashless Society is not even Implied. It just says you Cannot Buy or Sell without the Mark of the Beast 666. So Cash Can Be Used.

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

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

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

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

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

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

God Protects his people from Satan:

During the Great Tribulation Satan is in Total Control. It is Hell On The Earth!!!! Millions of People are Murdered By Satan!!!!

Christians will not be on the Earth During the Great Tribulation. If You are Saved You will be Taken Up Into the Air in the Rapture Before the Great Tribulation Happens. The Bible is 100% Clear about this!!!

The Rapture is Happy Comforting Words!!!!

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Jesus Suffered Bled and Died for the whole world. He did not Save us to allow us to go through the Hell of the Great Tribulation.

2nd Thessalonians 2:1 Now we beseech you, brethren, by the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, and [by] our gathering together unto him,
2 That ye be not soon shaken in mind, or be troubled, neither by spirit, nor by word, nor by letter as from us, as that the day of Christ is at hand.
3 Let no man deceive you by any means: for [that day shall not come], except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition;
4 Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God.
5 Remember ye not, that, when I was yet with you, I told you these things?
6 And now ye know what withholdeth that he might be revealed in his time.
7 For the mystery of iniquity doth already work: only he who now letteth [will let], until he be taken out of the way.
8 And then shall that Wicked be revealed, whom the Lord shall consume with the spirit of his mouth, and shall destroy with the brightness of his coming:
9 [Even him], whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders,
10 And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved.
11 And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie:
12 That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness.
13 But we are bound to give thanks alway to God for you, brethren beloved of the Lord, because God hath from the beginning chosen you to salvation through sanctification of the Spirit and belief of the truth:
14 Whereunto he called you by our gospel, to the obtaining of the glory of our Lord Jesus Christ.
15 Therefore, brethren, stand fast, and hold the traditions which ye have been taught, whether by word, or our epistle.
16 Now our Lord Jesus Christ himself, and God, even our Father, which hath loved us, and hath given [us] everlasting consolation and good hope through grace,
17 Comfort your hearts, and stablish you in every good word and work.

The Above Passage Tells Christians to have Comfort in their Hearts because they will be Gathered Up to Be With Jesus Before The Great Tribulation. To Believe that Christians will be On the Earth During the Great Tribulation is to Call God A LIAR, it is to DENY The Bible.

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

To be Saved from Hell: Believe on Jesus Only to Save You. Please Ask Jesus to Save You Right Now.

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

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