Question posited on Facebook: “Why are there so many Christian denominations?”

Christian response,

Christian denominations exist because Satan is an incredibly astute military tactician and routinely employs the tactic of “divide and conquer.” Satan has infused narcissism-pride-arrogance-covetousness into what was once a STRONG – UNIFIED body of believers in the First-Century Church and over the years Satan has fractured them into bickering factions of denominations/divisions/religions/sects/cults arguing over worship style, Church architecture, carpet color, music, dress, Gifts, baptism, grace, faith, security, tongues, the Trinity…this is why Christianity in America has quietly allowed godless, atheistic, secular humanistic, communists who murder babies in their mommy’s womb and care nothing for life from the womb to the tomb, who espouse sodomy in our streets and directly attack God and His Marriage Covenant between one-man and one-woman and our posterity who murders themselves in gender confusion orchestrated by Satan himself; this is how a super-majority of communists now occupy our House-Senate-Oval Office. This is why America is dying in the name of Karl Marx. This is why America’s schools are graduating millions upon millions of godless, atheistic secular humanists who hate God, America, our Constitutional Republic and the freedoms our fathers have fought and died for. This is why God has walked away from our apostasy.

Atheist mocks God as a failure for Abraham’s faithfulness concerning Isaac as a sacrifice: “The greatest personal failing in the Bible has to be Abraham almost killing his son, Isaac, because God told him to. Abraham did not think for himself, or question God’s authority. As I read the story, the message is blind faith can have disastrous consequences. What say you?”

Christian response,

Abraham believed God and knew that if Isaac was to be offered that God would raise Isaac from the dead as Isaac is the son of promise through Sarah not Ishmael through Hagar. God provides us the scenario involving Abraham and Isaac for a purpose.

Abraham was commanded to take his only begotten son (John 3:16 as Jesus is the “only begotten Son”) to a mountain (Mt. Moriah which is Mt. Golgotha where Messiah Jesus was crucified) and offer Isaac as a burnt offering unto the Lord. It was a three-day journey for Abraham and in Abraham’s mind his son was essentially dead as Jesus was dead (in body) in the tomb for three-days as the Father observed this horror over that time. Isaac was to carry the wood for his own sacrifice up the mountain just as Jesus carried His cross up Mt. Golgotha.

While Abraham was preparing the foundation upon which he would sacrifice his son, Isaac asked his father concerning the sacrifice that they now had the wood and were prepared to make the offering but Isaac inquired of his father, where is the lamb for the sacrifice and Abraham responded that God Himself would provide the sacrifice…again…God “HIMSELF” (some translations say that God will provide the lamb) would provide the sacrifice, this is eternally relevant.

As Abraham placed his only begotten son upon the altar of sacrifice and prepared to kill his son in obedience to God’s will, an angel of the Lord stopped Abraham and commended him for his great faith and Abraham looked up and in the nearby shrubbery was a ram (not a lamb) that was taken and sacrificed in place of Isaac…(it would be Jesus that is the “Lamb of God” who would come to take away the sins of the World – John 1:29) — study the foundation of the Jewish shofar (rams horn) having originated or having found significance among the Hebrew Tribes from this scenario.

Note: MEME suggests Isaac’s sacrifice was for sin, this is in error, this was a burnt offering as a test of Abraham’s faithfulness.

How did America the Beautiful become the Land of Marx and Lenin?

Interestingly enough, you will find that the current societal, ideological, political, divide in America has its roots in men like John Dewey (Father of modern education) and Rousseau (1880/1900’s) both of whom were Progressives-Marxists that lit the fire of progressive-socialism in our Nation and targeted America’s educational system. Dewey loathed individualism and insisted that the collective mindset must be taught in the schools throughout America as Dewey envisioned a collective-proletariat citizenry in America’s future. America’s societal elite, hungry for narcissistic power and control, advocated for Progressivism-Socialism-Marxism. This destructive ideology permeated several Presidential administrations, our House/Senate/Scotus while the Soviet KGB/GRU after WWII targeted Hollywood and our education system with Lenin, Marxist ideology (McCarthyism with Director Hoover – Red Scare).

Then, in 1962, the secular humanists/progressives in America’s educational system successfully booted Jesus and the Bible out of schools via Engel v. Vitale (1962) supported by radical atheist, Madalyn Murray O’Hair and immediately infused Darwinian Evolutionary Theory into the Biological Sciences in the classrooms (1963) along with Marx, Lenin, revisionist history into the Humanities and these became a demonic catalyst that eventually and methodically transformed America’s youth from grade schools to graduate schools into God hating, nihilistic-secular humanistic-atheistic-communists and today we have at least two-generations of what Lenin refers to as “useful idiots” of the proletariat e.g. Millennial and Gen-Z men and women and these are flooding the voting booths and the streets in BLM and ANTIFA and Hollywood and our print media and our social media and our Wall Street and our Federal-State-County-Local governments, our school-boards, our teacher’s unions, and these communists are raising children and educating them into Marx, Lenin, Critical Race Theory, anti-American, God-hating communists and this is why our Nation is choking on the blood of murdered human life from the womb to the tomb and our children murder themselves in confusion and hopelessness as they’re unable to differentiate between little boys and little girls nor do they know what bathroom to use.

This is why demonically led Communists are in our Oval Office, a super-majority in our House and Senate and have positions of authority in our SCOTUS, our State Houses as well. We are a society of abortionists, sodomites, atheists, secular humanists, traitors, communists, narcissists, and we’ve no one to blame but our own pathetic cowardliness and unfaithfulness and apostasy. God is angry with everyone of us. Void another Civil War to put the Democrats, once again, in their place and put a check on their demonic desires for power and control, America as we knew it, is done! Communist Democrats in America have sold the United States, our children, our wealth, our Bill of Rights, to the Devil, to the Communist Chinese, to the Globalists, we’ve crossed the tipping-point, it’s now or never. DO NOT SURRENDER YOUR WEAPONS TO THIS COMMUNIST GOVERNMENT!

Question concerning Christians and their prayer for forgiveness: “If it’s true that Jesus died for our sins, why do we always pray to God for forgiveness of our sins…?”

Christian response,

Christian’s pray for forgiveness of sin not to reestablish our salvation as we are secure in the Holy Spirit by faith in Jesus via Covenant with God the Father, forever (John 10:28-30), but the Christian walks daily in the process of sanctification and is in-tune with the Holy Spirit (Galatians 5:16); when we disobey God’s will for our life by word, thought, deed, we are immediately grieved and therefore quick to apologize to our Father much like we would if we wronged our best friend on this Earth; we don’t apologize because we’re fearful of losing our positional relationship but we apologize because we do NOT want anything interrupting our intimacy with our God Whom we love more than anyone or anything existing in Time or Eternity (Luke 10:27).

The Christian that has entered into relationship with God the Father by grace through faith in the Son, Jesus Christ, having received the indwelling Holy Spirit as Guarantor of that relationship (Ephesians 1:13-14) intuitively knows that our peace, our intimacy, our assurance, our personal relationship with God is the most precious GIFT one can receive (Romans 5:1); therefore, the Christian wants NOTHING interrupting that intimacy as the love of God makes life worth living.

A spiritually lost and deceived Jew mocks Jesus as Messiah: “What is the added value of believing in Jesus as a way to ‘life’ if this way already existed?”

Christian response,

There is no life without Jesus as your Lord. The Torah does NOT provide life nor atonement but only condemnation through a Law that defines sin and condemns the soul to Hell (Romans 3:20; Galatians 2:16) as the Law mandates perfection (James 2:10) and you’re a sinner by nature (Romans 3:23) and you’ve already violated the Law and you are under its condemnation and curse (Galatians 3:10). It is Jesus, alone, that is worthy to make atonement for sin as Jesus entered the World through the hypostatic union fully God and fully man (Philippians 2:8) and circumvented the sin-nature via the seed of the woman (Genesis 3:15), a sin-nature that plagues all of mankind born of the seed of Adam (Romans 5:12); therefore, Jesus, alone, kept the Law in absolute perfection (Matthew 5:17; John 8:46) and walked to the horrors of a Roman Crucifixion and shed His innocent blood as payment for your sin and offers you HIS perfection in place of your imperfection IF you will trust-believe in Jesus as your Lord and Mediator for sin (John 3:16-18; 2 Corinthians 5:21); otherwise, you will die in your sin and you will not be named among the Jewish remnant nor will you enter the Kingdom of God (John 8:24; Isaiah 10:22; Romans 9:27).

Has the Seventh-Day Adventist Church and other Sabbatarian sects become divisive “cults” and legalists clothed in Christianity? Please allow me to explain?

Repeatedly, I observe SDA insisting that Christianity fails to worship on the Sabbath and there is a distinct condemnative tone that accompanies this allegation. Jesus never infused the 4th-Commandment (ceremonial law) into the New Covenant as Jesus IS the Sabbath’s rest and the Sabbath’s fulfillment for the one who trusts in Him as Lord (Hebrews 4). The Sabbath Day was not given to anyone as an edict until Moses (Exodus 16) and the Sabbath was then codified at Sinai (Exodus 20), some 2500-years subsequent to the creation narrative in Genesis and Day-Seven’s rest. Elohim did NOT give the Sabbath Day command to Adam, Enoch, Moses, Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, NOT ONCE nor does God chastise any Gentile from Adam forward for disobeying the Sabbath but He does hold the Gentile culpable for violating the nine-moral Laws of the Decalogue and the Moral Law of Conscience (Romans 2:15).

It’s also noteworthy that the Jerusalem Council in Acts 15 did not burden the Gentiles with the Torah or the Sabbath in the New Testament Church as the Gospel was received with great joy among the Gentiles in the First-Century. Jesus did infuse the other nine-“moral laws” of the Decalogue into the New Covenant via His Earthly ministry but the Sabbath IS Jesus in type (Colossians 2:16) and Jesus provides the faithful a “rest” from the arduous and condemnative Law of “sin and death” that only defined sin void atonement (Romans 3:20; Romans 8:3); therefore, the SDA member and other Sabbatarian’s violate Scripture when they suggest or demand that a Christian must rest or worship on Saturday and these groups unfortunately morph into a legalist cult seeking dissension among the brethren in their OBSESSION with a Day in lieu of true substance; that is, Christ crucified and Him victorious over sin for one who believes; this divisive legalism is evil (Romans 14).

It is becoming readily apparent that SDA and other Sabbatarian sects’ verge on the title of “Christian cult;” therefore, please check yourself and your Church’s doctrine. If you are in Christ, you are free to worship and “rest” any day or every day, including Saturday and-or Sunday, to honor our Lord as you are NOT under Law but under GRACE (Romans 6:14) in Jesus as Lord; NO ONE possesses the authority or the divine right to chastise a Christian in this matter; therefore, PLEASE stop with the condemnation of Sunday as the Lord’s Day?

Romans 14 (ESV), It is written…

As for the one who is weak in faith, welcome him, but not to quarrel over opinions. 2 One person believes he may eat anything, while the weak person eats only vegetables. 3 Let not the one who eats despise the one who abstains, and let not the one who abstains pass judgment on the one who eats, for God has welcomed him. 4 Who are you to pass judgment on the servant of another? It is before his own master[a] that he stands or falls. And he will be upheld, for the Lord is able to make him stand. 5 One person esteems one day as better than another, while another esteems all days alike. Each one should be fully convinced in his own mind. 6 The one who observes the day, observes it in honor of the Lord. The one who eats, eats in honor of the Lord, since he gives thanks to God, while the one who abstains, abstains in honor of the Lord and gives thanks to God. 7 For none of us lives to himself, and none of us dies to himself. 8 For if we live, we live to the Lord, and if we die, we die to the Lord. So then, whether we live or whether we die, we are the Lord’s. 9 For to this end Christ died and lived again, that he might be Lord both of the dead and of the living.10 Why do you pass judgment on your brother? Or you, why do you despise your brother? For we will all stand before the judgment seat of God; 11 for it is written,“As I live, says the Lord, every knee shall bow to me, and every tongue shall confess to God.” 12 So then each of us will give an account of himself to God.

Atheist mocks God’s Judgment: “There is no evidence that would lead a thinking person to conclude that we are judged by God after we die. So why believe it?”

Christian response,

All that we see in this World finds its foundational origin in the Spiritual and much of our government is patterned after the form of Government articulated within the Scriptures and our government codifies laws with the intent to protect the citizenry via the Bill of Rights in our Constitution. One of the purposes for God’s Law (the Law of Conscience) is the sustainability of the human species as that Law acts as a bulwark against narcissism, hedonism, moral relativism, that would ultimately lead to the extinction of human kind through violence. God’s Laws will also play a vital role in Judgment as these Laws written upon our heart by our Creator will ensure equity with due process at Judgment in Eternity, everyone will be “without excuse” (Romans 1:18-32).

Man’s jurisprudence involves the codification of laws, enforcement, prosecution, judgment, punishment, as a deterrent to dangerous and destructive behavior and it’s no different in God’s Government as God’s Laws seek the very same end. Jesus is both our Judge and Attorney. For those who believe in Jesus as Lord, He has removed His black robe, exited the bench and taken our position as the guilty party in front of the bench and agreed to pay our debt to God the Father for us via a Roman Cross; that is, Jesus has paid our sin-debt in full through the shedding of His innocent blood. The sin-debt of mankind is cancelled via Covenant for everyone who believes with a sincere heart that Jesus Christ is Lord and that He died to pay their sin-debt and that Jesus was resurrected from the dead for their justification (Romans 10:9-10).

For those who reject Jesus as Lord, He will be Judge and prosecutor and you will pay your own sin-debt to God and ultimately lose both body and soul in Hell because your unrepentant sin and its destructiveness will not be permitted to enter the Kingdom subsequent to the death of your body in Time (Revelation 21:27); so then, in God’s jurisdiction and in His jurisprudence, mankind has been provided a pardon from sin i.e. death in Hell and given Eternal Life through faith in Jesus’ sacrifice via Covenant – or – mankind can choose to pay his own sin-debt with his own soul and his own resurrected body of corruption that will ultimately cease to exist in the Lake of Fire subsequent to adjudication (Revelation 20:11-15); ultimately, the choice is ours to make. God pleads with every man and woman to choose “life” by trusting in the selfless love of the Son, Jesus Christ, who died to pay our sin-debt. Doubting God’s Judgment is not wise or prudent.

Theological critic mocks the temptation of Jesus by the Evil One: “If Christians insist that Jesus is God, how is it possible for the Devil to take God to a very high mountain and show God all the kingdoms of the World when God is the creator of the kingdoms of the world and all that lies therein?” Matthew 4:8 & Luke 4:5

Christian response,

The Evil One formerly held a position of great authority in the throne room of God the Father (Ezekiel 28:11-17) and the relationship between the Son and this cherub angel was one of former intimacy as said angel was a special anointed creation of God. Our entire creation narrative in Time is the resultant of this anointed cherub angel’s rebellion in the Kingdom and that destructive sin having been extricated from the Kingdom (Luke 10:18) and this Earth having been created by the Son for cause with rapidity (Genesis 1; John 1; Colossians 1; Hebrews 1) and the Evil One, his demonic minions, placed here as a war between the Son and the Evil One was declared in Genesis 3:15 and the strategy the Father would use to defeat the Evil One was pictured in Genesis 3:21 (a gospel of grace involving selfless love not man’s works) and this war ultimately came to fruition 4000-years later at Mt. Golgotha with the words shouted by the Son, Jesus Christ, “It is finished.”

The relationship between the Son and the Evil One is not fully known to humanity but it’s safe to say that in Eternity there was mutual love and respect between the two until iniquity was found in the angel of light; therefore, the pride and lofty spirit of the fallen anointed angel having met with Jesus before the culmination of the war between them and then taking Jesus for a last temptation before Messiah’s ministry of victory over this fallen angel is not unusual and both Jesus and the fallen cherub angel are truly spiritual beings and neither is constrained by Time or physics; therefore, Messiah and the Evil One could have chosen any “high place” on Earth or the 2nd or 3rd Heaven to discuss alternatives to the coming battle involving death, Hell, the grave…why do you mock and disparage the power of God and His Holy Spirit?

Question on FB concerning Adam and law: “Which law had been transgressed that required the death of humanity? Since where there is no law, there is no transgression.”

Christian response, (I apologize for the length of the narrative)

The moral law or law of conscience (Romans 2:15) has been extant from the creation of the angels. The moral law was created in response to the necessity for free will among God’s created beings; free will being essential for love and relationship with our Creator to manifest with purity and authenticity. God created the moral law and infused same into mankind as we are created in His spiritual image and have received certain communicable attributes from our Creator; this was done primarily for two-reasons:

1) The Moral Law of Conscience acts a bulwark against unrestrained narcissism, hedonism, moral relativism, thereby ensuring the sustainability of human kind as God works through creation via the Son “to destroy the works of the Devil” (1 John 3:8b) which is accomplished via the Gospel ordained “before the beginning of Time” (2 Timothy 1:9-10).

2) The Moral Law of Conscience is of necessity in order that God’s Judgment in Time and in Eternity can manifest with equity, due process; therefore, all of mankind will be “without excuse” (Romans 1:18-32).

Not only was Adam infused with God’s Moral Law of Conscience, but Adam received a Law directly from His Creator to not compromise with evil and the ramifications of same, should Adam disobey, were clearly articulated. Adam relented to the enticement of his wife, Eve, and sought the knowledge of evil in lieu of obedience to God’s Law; therefore, spiritual death, a chasm between God and man, manifest immediately and physiological death manifest in due time.

Adam’s rejection of God’s Covenant of Sustenance and Provision manifest in a curse upon the human genome and nature thereby setting forth the introduction of the Son born of the seed of the woman (virgin) who would do battle with the originator of evil (Genesis 3:15) and the strategy used to destroy the works of the Evil One was pictured in Genesis 3:21 (A Gospel of grace not works). The following Scripture within the Canon, as inspired by the Holy Spirit, simply details this cosmic war between good and evil having been placed within the Realm of Time as God set-apart a people group to be His sign-post or historical and eschatological marker identifying where God is positioned in the framework of Time by observing this chosen people-group and their historical station in Time from moment to moment.

Finally, it is important to remember that mankind was created to live eternally and it is sin, rebellion, rejection of God, that has resulted in death of the human species, why? God the Father has ordained the Kingdom as inhospitable to sin; therefore, mankind’s sin will not be permitted to enter the Kingdom (Revelation 21:27); in fact, this is the causation for the creation narrative as sin was introduced into the Kingdom by a rebellious cherub angel necessitating the extrication of sin and the sin-bearer from the Kingdom and a repository for the Evil One on this Earth as God deals with him and his sin partially constrained by Time and physics. It is the foolishness of man that suggests God will wink at our sin and permit our entrance into the Kingdom void repentance and atonement as God Himself suffered and died to provide atonement via His selfless and eternal love.
