Bad Theological Advice Corrected

Bad theological advice corrected: “The best theological advice I ever got was acknowledging we are ALL hypocrites.”

Christian response,

The “best” theological advice you can receive is the knowledge that you’re a sinner (Romans 3:23) headed to death in Hell (Revelation 20:11-15) because God the Father is NOT going to permit your destructive, unrepentant sin to enter His Kingdom subsequent to the death of your body in Time (Revelation 21:27) – but – God the Father did not leave you in that hopeless condition but interceded on YOUR behalf by sending the Son, Jesus Christ (John 3:16-18), Who is God (Philippians 2:8; John 1; Colossians 2:9) to pay your sin-debt for you…a debt you could NOT pay (John 14:6) and by repenting of your sin (Luke 13:3) and believing in/confessing Jesus as your God and Mediator for your sin (Romans 10:9-10; 1 Timothy 2:5), you can receive forgiveness of sin and find life in Eternity with God, forever (John 11:25). This is the Good News of what God has done for you and it is the very best advice any man, woman or child can receive within the Realm of Time.

Salvation-atonement for sin by obedience to the Law or by Grace through faith in Jesus?

False doctrine of “works salvation” espoused on FB, once again: “We cannot find in the Bible that man can be saved to eternal life without obedience to the Law of Yahweh.”

Christian response,

If obedience to the Law was the standard by which man achieved righteousness with the Father through atonement for sin, all of mankind would be destined to die in Hell because all of mankind is under the condemnation of sin (Romans 5:12-18) for we are all sinners (Romans 3:23) and to violate one-jot or one-tittle of the Law is to violate the whole Law (James 2:10); therefore, the Law cannot save you as it only condemns you via the knowledge of sin (Romans 3:20) void atonement and as sinners, we require an Intercessor who is perfect, sinless, righteous, before God the Father to pay our sin-debt for us (Romans 8:3-4). His Name is Jesus Christ and ONLY by grace (unmerited favor unattainable by human effort) through faith-believing in Jesus as your God and Mediator for your sin will you find atonement for sin and life in Eternity (John 3:16-18; John 14:6).

Your works of obedience are relevant SUBSEQUENT to your confession of Jesus as Lord and receiving the indwelling Holy Spirit as your Seal and Guarantor of relationship with God the Father (Ephesians 1:13-14; Ephesians 2:8-9). Until you have entered into a relationship with the Father by belief-faith in the shed blood of the Son, Jesus Christ, your works of attempted obedience are as a smelly, filthy, bloody, menstrual cloth in the nose of our Holy God (Isaiah 64:6). It is your works of obedience subsequent to your salvation that affirm and validate your confession of Jesus as Lord as true, authentic and it is your desire for obedience to God’s will that substantiates your positioning as “born again” by the Spirit of God (John 3) dwelling within you (Ephesians 1:13-14; John 14:16) as He, the Holy Spirit, walks you in the process of sanctification until your departure from this life within the Realm of Time.

You cannot be saved, your sin will NOT be forgiven, by seeking obedience to a Law or edict or Day or Tradition or Mass but ONLY by grace through faith in the completed work of Jesus Christ at Golgotha (Acts

4:12; Ephesians 2:8-9; John 14:6). “I do not nullify the grace of God, for if righteousness comes through the Law, then Christ died needlessly.” Galatians 2:21 (NASB)

Can we keep the 10- Commandments and believe in Jesus as Lord and Savior at the same time?”

Theological question on FB:“Can we keep the 10 commandments and believe in Jesus as Lord and savior [at] the same time..?”

Christian response,

You can certainly seek obedience to the Commandments but you’ll never keep them in perfection due to the encumbrance of the sin-nature integral with your decaying flesh (Romans 3:23; Romans 7); but yes, there is nothing wrong with seeking to obey the Commandments as a Christian as long as you’re aware that you cannot find righteousness or atonement or salvation through attempting to keep the Law as the Law only defines sin void any form of atonement (Galatians 2:16); the Law only condemns and cannot save (Romans 3:20).

It is ONLY by repenting of sin (Luke 13:3) and trusting-believing in Jesus Christ as your God and Mediator for your sin (Romans 10:9-10) that one finds righteousness (a right standing) with God the Father (John 14:6) and atonement for our sin through the shed-blood of Messiah Jesus (Matthew 26:28) thereby permitting us access to the Kingdom subsequent to the death of our body in Time (John 3:16-18). Messiah’s blood atonement and faith in same for the forgiveness of our sin is essential as nothing impure is permitted to enter the Kingdom of God (Revelation 21:27).

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

Abortion Advocate mocks Christianity: a response…

Abortion advocate mocks Christianity, a response:

Dear Atheist-Abortionist-LGBTQ advocate,

Christianity does not forbid prevention of fertilization (contraception) or sex-education when its curriculum is properly oriented for the age group receiving it. Christians demand that you Democrat Communists stop murdering babies in the womb and stop celebrating your sexual perversion in our streets, stop burning our municipalities, stop seeking to de-fund our police, thereby bringing God’s wrath upon our Nation as a whole resulting in mass confusion and the suffering of our posterity. Please, take your Democrat-Communist-abortion-sexual perversity and manic liberalism into the closet where it belongs or leave our Nation and harass someone else as America can only survive with Jesus as our King; so then, go to a Nation or Country that advocates your insanity…we’re sick and tired of your unsustainable worldview and practices that are destroying our posterity and our future.

Atheist mocks the Living God – a Christian response…

Atheist mocks the Living God/a response: “So, what happened then? Did the Jesus God come along and knock off the original Dreamtime God and take over, did he? Well, may you blindly trumpet your God as being the one and only true God but the facts clearly contradict your ill-fated stance. If I were you I would be chucking the Bible in the fire, smear some ochre on my face and start dancing around the fire waving a boomerang.

Christian response,

There was nothing to knock off as there has never been a God other than the true God, the Creator of the Heavens and the Earth, life i.e. Elohim/I AM and it was not until His purpose for Time through His Messiah came to fruition that He identified Himself and separated Himself from the gods of mankind’s imagination. God the Father, from before the creation of Time (2 Timothy 1:9-10), has been focused upon His angles, His relationship with them in the Kingdom. You and I are necessary refuse of a struggle between the forces of good v. evil, a war that was initiated before the beginning of Time, that captures God’s attention and His motives concerning all of Eternity.

When God knew the time was right, He introduced Himself to one (Moses, Exodus 3:14) who would lead His people out of 400-years of bondage and into a Land promised to Abraham, Isaac and Jacob through whom He would bless every family of the Earth through atonement for sin and life in Eternity to all who believe (Genesis 12:3; John 3:16). It would be through Messiah Yeshua that God the Father would destroy the works of the devil (1 John 3:8b) through sacrificial love not arbitrary power (Genesis 3:21; 2 Corinthians 5:21) and demonstrate to His faithful angelic creation the horrors of sin and rebellion and the beauty and peace found in righteousness and obedience (John 14:27; Romans 5:1) so that a repeat of the rebellion that initiated our creation would be thwarted by experiential relevance.

Atheists: Satan’s tool, dangerous fool?

Considering the extant empirical evidence for the reality of our Creator confronting our senses 24/7/365 and then to interact with human beings that are willfully and obstinately blind to said evidence yet trust fully in crazy inferences and laughable suppositions espoused by men and women foolishly touting the impossible theory of evolution, abiogenesis, descent with modification; I ask you, is this not the most absurd and unreasonable and illogical worldview imaginable to the coherent and discerning mind? The Scriptures clearly define the atheist as a “fool,” a liar and “without excuse” (Romans 1:18-32) but how is it that so many men and women choose to live in wilful rejection of what they intuitively know to be truth?

Is the atheist’s rejection of God’s authority, dominion and sovereignty over our Creation in response to an obsession with aberrant lust and an addiction to their genitalia and same-sex perversity? I find it true that an overwhelming number of LGBTQ participants are atheists. Is it an attempt at appeasing a guilty conscience for having participated in a criminal conspiracy to murder a baby in the womb via abortion? Is aberrant lust freed by an ideology of moral relativism at the root of the facade of atheism? Finally, why does the lie of atheism thoroughly permeate the demonic ideologies of Infanticide, Darwinism, Communism, Socialism, Humanism, Secularism, Nihilism, LGBTQ, the Democrat Party of the United States? Does the lie of atheism permeate these demonic ideologies because they’re rooted in the same evil god, Satan (John 8:44)?

[BTW atheist, the atoning blood of Jesus Christ also covers the sin of LGBTQ and abortion if you’ll repent and ask Him for forgiveness and believe in Him as your Lord (John 3:16-18).]

What motivates men and women to surrender to Satan’s will for their life and deny the love and mercy and grace of our loving God in Jesus Christ as Lord? What motivates a man or woman to choose death in Hell when the path to life and peace with God in Eternity is only a breath away by confessing and believing in Jesus as Lord? If the atheist truly did not “believe,” why do they spend so much time and exert so much effort in arguing about God’s nonexistence? Inquiring minds want to know…

Grand-Pa, why did America die?

Though it’s not a mystery to the Christian, one possessing at least a modicum of moral and ethical discernment must look at the constituency and representatives of the Democrat-Communist-Progressive-Islamic Party of the United States and wonder – WHY – is this Party inundated with atheists; humanists; moral relativists; Darwinist’; secularists; those who advocate for the mutilation of babies in the womb and fight to maintain unconstitutional Roe/73; the unashamed presence of LGBTQ promoted and celebrated in our morally sick society; boisterous Communists-Islamist’ traitors to America serving in our Government; pedophiles serving in our Government; Marxist sympathizers supporting radical organizations like Black Lives Matter, ANTIFA, Southern Poverty Law Center, People for the American Way i.e. Globalists-Marxists-Traitors; espousing the destruction of America’s Constitutional Republic; the de-funding of America’s law enforcement; the destruction of America’s suburbs with forced low-income housing; the ruination of America’s capitalistic economy through infusion of socialistic-communistic socioeconomic strategies; the Green New Deal that will bankrupt America; socialized medicine that will bankrupt America’s economy and destroy the quality of America’s medical institutions; open borders that will result in a raped economy, drug wars, drug deaths, disease and rob American low-wage earners of much needed employment; demands to repeal the 2nd-Amendment and leave the American citizen defenseless while de-funding law enforcement; restrictions on the First-Amendment – free speech that is, conservative speech; the division of American culture into tribalism-race-ethnicity-sexual orientation; the extinction of America’s White middle class; the hatred for God and Christianity and the Church; the destruction of the American family unit the bedrock of a sustainable American society…

I ask you, how can the presence of the Democrat-Communist Party in America be anything other than God’s wrath upon the American people as the presence of Satan and his demons are in our midst via the Democrat Party……. is this not undeniable to those with wisdom and discernment? 

Is the Democrat-Communist Party the resultant of America’s mutilation of 61-million babies in the womb subsequent to SCOTUS affirming unconstitutional Roe v. Wade (1973)?

Is the presence of the demonic Democrat Communist Party in America the final chapter in America’s status as a dominant economic and military power?

Is Obergefell v. Hodges (2015) confirmation that God the Father, God the Son, God the Holy Spirit, have walked away from our Nation and left us to choke on the blood on the innocent children mutilated under our watch while unconscionable sexual immorality is celebrated in our streets while our youth murder themselves in transsexual confusion?

Is America dying in apostasy? As a Christian, I say YES…there is no doubt that the presence of the godless atheist in such numbers throughout our society is the tell-tale sign that God has had enough of our bloodshed and sexual immorality and apostasy and rejection of His Son, Jesus Christ!

If you think God exists, Prove It!

Debate Challenge presented on forum: If you think God exists, prove it. I’m not sure what to believe. I have a very rational mind, and I need proof of something to believe in it. So, try to sway me towards one side or the other.

Christian response,

An Eternal Truth: God the Father has given you His written word in the form of a Canon of Scripture and preserved it down through History so that mankind can know Him personally; love Him intimately; live with Him eternally. If you reject God’s letter of love to you so that you can find life in His Son, Jesus Christ, by grace through faith, you will die in your sin and lose both body and soul in Hell (John 8:24; Revelation 20:11-15; Matthew 10:28). To know God’s reality you must possess a heart willing to believe and seek God; otherwise, He will remain an enigma to you and you’ll live and die in futility (Matthew 16:26).

“Christianity is the only coherent worldview with corresponding truth that defines origin-meaning-morality-destiny and directly answers with logical consistency, empirical adequacy, experiential relevance.” (Ravi Zacharias) There is ONE God and ONE Mediator for sin, Jesus Christ-Yeshua (1 Timothy 2:5).

“There are honest doubters and dishonest doubters. An honest doubter is willing to search out the truth and live by the results; a dishonest doubter doesn’t want to know the truth. He can’t find God for the same reason a thief can’t find a policeman.” Adrian Rogers

Three-forms of evidence validating our Creator, Jesus Christ-Yeshua…

1) Nature

2) The Incarnation of God in Time

3) The Written Covenant between God and Mankind

1) Empirical – Preliminary – Substantive – Observable Evidence = Nature

The Universe, encompassing the Sun-Moon-Stars-Earth, descending downward to the complex human genome (life), all provide empirical, preliminary, substantive, observable, evidence for design in Nature and therefore mandate a Designer (Isaiah 66:1; Acts 7:49).

The Holy Spirit has clearly articulated that anyone who denies these empirical, supernatural, inexplicable, forms of Nature as testimony relevant to our Creator’s validity will be “without excuse” when they stand in the Judgment before Jesus Christ-Yeshua in Eternity (Romans 1:18-32; Revelation 20:11-15). It is the preliminary evidence of Nature that confronts mankind daily/nightly and is so designed as to draw all men and women to seek knowledge of God and find life in His Name, Jesus Christ-Yeshua.

God has so uniquely created and ordained Nature as testimony and evidence relevant to Himself that He has nullified mankind’s ability to define origin of matter or understand the supernatural Universe He has placed before us (Ecclesiastes 3:11). Origin of matter will, until the end of Time, remain a mystery to mankind as man is cognitively constrained by Time and The Curse; all that is visible and invisible to the human eye in Nature was established, created, by elements from the invisible Spiritual World; therefore, the genesis of our Creation will forever remain an enigma, a mystery, to the mind of man. Anyone seeking Truth, void a personal bias against the validity of our Creator, can easily apprehend and discern the supernatural design of creation mandating a supernatural Creator.

“By faith we understand that the worlds were prepared by the word of God, so that what is seen was not made out of things which are visible.” Hebrews 11:3 (NASB)

“He has made everything appropriate in its time. He has also set eternity in their heart, yet so that man will not find out the work which God has done from the beginning even to the end.” Ecclesiastes 3:11 (NASB)

2) The Incarnate, Living Word of God, Jesus Christ-Yeshua

There exists no greater or more popular historical figure than Jesus Christ-Yeshua. The Atheist who rejects the historicity of Jesus simply rejects the overwhelming evidence for His validity readily accessible-available in Biblical and extra-Biblical as well as non-Christian, archeological, sources.

Our Creator did not leave His Human creation to wonder or ponder about the one-true-God and His Plan and purposes for Time and Eternity, but God left the Spiritual Realm some 2019-years ago, He divided history, and entered the Realm of Time in the flesh through a virgin birth that was essential to establish Him as Messiah who would selflessly give Himself to save mankind from death in sin and death in Hell (Philippians 2:5-11; Matthew 1:23).

During the 33.5-years of His Earthly sojourn, Jesus fulfilled over 300-Messianic prophecies as articulated in the Covenant of Law extending from the Genesis to The Book of Malachi. The statistical chances of

1 person fulfilling 8 prophecies: 1 in 100,000,000,000,000,000;

1 person fulfilling 48 prophecies: 1 chance in 10 to the 157th power;

1 person fulfilling 300+ prophecies: Only Jesus!

In the Gospel of John, Chapter 14 v. 6, Jesus *said to him, “I am the way, and the truth, and the life; no one comes to the Father but through Me.”

Anyone contemplating the Deity of Jesus Christ in light of the previous Scripture (John 14:6) must come to ONE of only three-conclusions concerning Jesus Christ. Jesus is either a…

1. liar.

2. lunatic.

3. Lord

Every human being born subsequent to 33-AD and having attained an age of reason with sufficient cognitive acuity to discern the moral law as written upon our heart by our Creator (Romans 2:15) will have to choose between these three-options seeing that their eternal destiny will depend solely upon which option they choose.

3) The written word of God, the Holy Bible

God the Father has not only provided Nature/the Universe and the Son, Jesus Christ-Yeshua as testimony of His validity, power, dominion, but God has also provided a written “Covenant of Grace” (Matthew 26:28) to His human creation through the Holy Spirit. God the Holy Spirit meticulously, supernaturally, moved through the inner-man of 40-men of antiquity, holy men set-apart specifically for the purpose of penning on parchment the Plan and purposes of our Creator; a journey of 1400-to-1600-years, three-continents, three-languages, explaining in detail our origin, our purpose and meaning, God’s moral law and God’s Plan for the destiny of Time and Eternity.

For those who scoff at the integrity of God’s written word and thereby call the Holy Spirit a liar, understand that the very same Creator who initiated visible matter from the unseen Spiritual World and used same to create this vast supernatural Universe and gave you the breath of life, this very same Creator is abundantly capable and qualified to provide you and provide me with the EXACT words He desires we have so that we can know Him, His Plan and purposes for Time and our individual lives. Irrespective of councils of men and theologians, critics, scholars, all of the efforts of men concerning advocating for or disparaging the Holy Scriptures, know that the Bible remains the best-selling Book in History and that God’s word will NEVER fade away (Matthew 24:35).

Conclusion

Our Creator has provided Human KIND with three-undeniable-forms of evidence relevant to His validity, reality, power, dominion, Deity…

1) Nature.

2) Jesus Christ, the Incarnate Living Word of God.

3) A written covenant, the Holy Scriptures.

Anyone who desires to know God intimately, personally, will find Him and enter into a relationship with Him if they will seek Him with their whole heart…He will be found by them (Jeremiah 29:11-13). God will NOT entertain or commune with a heart that does not truly desire to know Him but He is faithful to make His abode with anyone willing to come to Him in faith and believe that He is true.

“But without faith it is impossible to please Him, for he who comes to God must believe that He is, and that He is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him.” Hebrews 11:6 (NKJV)

The Arrogance of Atheism

The pride and arrogance of an Atheist who is headed to Hell for cause: “According to your own holy book, God does murder, theist. As I’ve just shown you, God does murder, and is not the saint you think he is. To murder is to deliberately kill a human being. God did this on a huge scale, in Noah’s Ark. What part do you not get? …what a hypocrite God must be to judge humans who have killed humans, but he gets a free pass, even though he has killed on a far greater scale than any human! Not only a murderer, but your God is a hypocrite too! And yet you claim God is oh-so-perfect…”


Christian response in reality,

God cannot murder what is His and God’s judgments are righteous and for cause in His holiness. God is not a hypocrite…He makes the law and the rules in accordance to His will and no one judges Him or His actions for He is the God of all living. He sees and knows far beyond our human intellect and reason as He is omniscient and omnipotent and omnipresent. God is perfect in holiness and righteousness and you are but a spirit encapsulated within decaying, sinful, flesh and without God’s intercession through the appearing of Jesus Christ in Time, you would be fodder for the fires of Hell. God does NOT need you; in fact, you’re refuse of an infinitely more relevant cosmic event that is causation for your creation and the creation of Time. God has had pity on you and in His mercy and grace God has given you an opportunity to find eternal life in His Son, Jesus Christ, by grace through faith in Jesus as your Lord…God was not required to do this and could have just as easily allowed you to die without hope or recourse but He’s given His all to provide you mercy because it brings Him glory and furthers His reasons for having Created Time, matter, this Universe, your genome. God does NOT need you, atheist…and in your atheism you are repulsive and wicked to God and you are His enemy…you’re not nearly as relevant and important as you might think! You are rotting away in your sinful flesh by the moment (James 4:14).


You atheists think WAY too much of yourselves as if you are owed something by God not understanding that you’re dying flesh and God holds your next breath in His hands and could extinguish your life instantaneously as you, in your atheism and pride and rebellion, are His enemy and you are an ally of His nemesis, Satan and Satan’s minions. You boast in your arrogance and lack of knowledge as if your words actually have value in the Court of Heaven but you’re fleshly, sinful, filth and unless you repent of your sin and sincerely believe in the Son, Jesus Christ, as your God and Mediator for your sin, you will die in sin and lose everything in Hell, both body and soul (Revelation 20:11-15; Matthew 10:28). God has made a Way (John 14:6) for you to find life and purpose in the Kingdom but if you reject it or think yourself too good for God; hey, you will reap what you sow and Eternity will NOT miss you (Galatians 6:7-8). 

How were people saved before Christ?

Theological question posited on Reddit forum: “How were people saved before Christ? If Adam & Eve were the first human beings alive, and have known God. Then why are there indigenous people spread all over the world worshiping other gods? I do not understand. How did that come to be? How did they come account to worshiping other gods? How are they judged before Christ came down to save us? How are people (not from Israel) judged when they die before Christ? when worshiping other gods based on culture. I am confused. I feel for them for having not knowing. Somebody help me understand.”

Christian response,

  1. From Eden forward, mankind has intuitively known that God, a Creator, exists (Romans 1:18-32) and for this reason mankind groped for God and fashioned Him into images represent by birds, four-footed animals, celestial bodies, men, women, trees, rocks. It was not until the true and LIVING God introduced Himself to Abraham, Isaac and Jacob and later to Moses as “I AM” (Exodus 3:14) that mankind found the One true God, the Creator of Heaven and Earth and all life, Elohim. Today, those ignorant of the Gospel of Jesus Christ and the Canon of Scripture continue to grope for God seeking Him in animals and trees and even in Darwinian Evolution through demonic abiogenesis and descent with modification. Jesus commanded the Church to take the Gospel to the ends of the Earth (Matthew 28:19) but there remains those in remote areas who have not yet heard.
  2. From Adam forward, mankind has always found righteousness (a right standing) with God the Father by “faith” (see Hebrews 11). Before the Covenant of Law and the Sinai Commandments, all of mankind operated under the Law of Conscience (Romans 2:15); that is, the moral law as written upon our heart by our Creator. Faith was and is the “key” to finding righteousness with God the Father from Adam to Abraham, Moses to Jesus (Covenant of Law), from Jesus (Covenant of Grace) to the end of Messiah’s Millennial Reign…faith is KEY.

The difference being, from Adam to Abraham, Moses to Jesus’ Crucifixion (those in the Old Testament), though mankind found righteousness (a right standing) with God the Father by faith, alone, there was no atonement for sin available and the Scripture tells us that sin having not been atoned for cannot enter the Kingdom of God (Revelation 21:27). Even in the Covenant of Law and the blood sacrifices performed with animals, the blood of animals did NOT provide lasting regenerative atonement for sin (see Hebrews 10); therefore, those who died having expressed faith in God before the Crucifixion of Messiah Jesus, their disembodied spirit/soul was relegated to a region Messiah Jesus and King David refer to as Sheol/Paradise (Luke 16; Psalm 16:10, also “Hades” in Greek). These Old Testament saints awaited Messiah’s atonement for sin in the region of Sheol-Paradise and the Scriptures tell us that when Messiah died upon the Cross and His body laid in the tomb, Messiah, in Spirit, entered Sheol-Paradise (1 Peter 3:18-20; Ephesians 4:8-10) and preached liberty to the Old Testament saints captive there and took them into the Kingdom of God. Messiah’s atonement for sin is the ONLY acceptable sacrifice for our sin and God the Father will NOT permit unrepentant sin to enter His Kingdom subsequent to the death of the body in Time (Revelation 21:27); therefore it was necessary for these Old Testament saints to wait for Messiah’s atonement before entering the Kingdom.

Today, in the Covenant of Grace established in Messiah’s blood (Matthew 26:28), everyone who dies having believed in Jesus Christ as God and Savior and Mediator for their sin, at the time of their death they are escorted instantaneously into the presence of our Lord (2 Corinthians 5:8).

3. Salvation is not exclusively for Israel; in fact, because of Israel’s disobedience and rejection of Messiah Jesus, Israel is under God’s judgment and only a remnant of Israel will be saved in the last days (Isaiah 10:22; Romans 9:27). The Gospel of Jesus Christ was taken from the children of Israel who rejected it and the Gospel was given to the Gentiles to proselytize the World with the “Good News” of Jesus as Lord for the mediation of sin.

Today, everyone, Jew or Gentile, who is willing to humble them self before God the Father and repent of their sin and sincerely believe in their heart, confess with their mouth, Jesus Christ as the God who died to pay their sin-debt (Romans 10:9-10), that person so believing and confessing is saved by grace through faith in Jesus and they are secure in the Father through the indwelling Holy Spirit, forever (Ephesians 1:13-14; John 20:28-30).
