Salvation – Righteousness with our Creator. How?

Salvation, a “right standing” with our Creator is attained by:
1) Works, keeping laws, rules?
2) Works, keeping laws, rules + faith?
3) Faith alone?

What is the Biblical Truth?

Works, keeping laws, obeying rules, play no role in salvation.

Christian works, the production of divine fruit (Galatians 5:16-23), manifest SUBSEQUENT salvation and are the resultant of the anointing of the indwelling Holy Spirit working through the “new creation” (the new person) in Jesus (John 15:8; Galatians 5:16-23; 2 Corinthians 5:17).

Works or striving to keep laws for righteousness, a right standing with the Father, are theologically equivalent to the odor of a bloody menstrual cloth in the nose of the Father (Isaiah 64:6); the “work of God” that opens the door to salvation is “to believe in the One the Father has sent into the World” to provide blood atonement for your sin (John 6:29); that is, believe with a sincere heart that Jesus is our Messiah who died to pay your sin-debt owed the Father, a debt you cannot pay yourself through striving after obedience to laws, rules, customs, days, traditions (John 14:6). Salvation being a divine gift of “grace” (unmerited favor you cannot earn) through faith (trusting-believing that Jesus is Messiah).

Works, fruit, SUBSEQUENT salvation are a sign of legitimate saving faith (James 2:17-26) but those works/fruit are NOT causative (Ephesians 2:8-9; Galatians 2:16). Works, in the pursuit of righteousness-salvation, do not honor the Father lest they’re performed through you by the indwelling Holy Spirit which can only manifest subsequent salvation as the Spirit is the Guarantor and Seal of New Covenant relationship given to all who believe Jesus is Messiah (Ephesians 1:13-14).

Now to the one who works, his wage is not credited as a favor, but as what is due. 5 But to the one who does not work, but believes in Him who justifies the ungodly, his faith is credited as righteousness,

Biker Gang Activity – Effectively Castrating the Bane of any Civil Society

Biker Gang Activity – Effectively Castrating the Bane of any civil society

If the United States Federal Government, the FBI, DEA, ATF, HSI; If a State Law Enforcement entity, Department of Public Safety, Highway Patrol, desires to SHUT DOWN Biker Gang criminal activity, the most expedient solution is employing “illegal motor vehicle noise” as lawful probable cause for a STOP and INVESTIGATE, cite the LOUD biker for violations of State Muffler Law, State Law which mirrors the protective intent of CFR 40 Part 205; then, impound the offending vehicle and maintain custody of the illegally equipped motorcycle until such time arrangements are made to return the noncompliant vehicle to an OEM, Factory Installed, legal, condition i.e., a factory installed, quiet, safe, muffler system that is properly labeled and affixed to said motorcycle.

Biker Gangs in the United States, and Biker Gangs around the World, worship at the throne of narcissism which is under girded and exemplified primarily by their illegal motorcycle NOISE accompanied by a silly façade of false bravado, vulgarity, hedonism, arrogance. Motorcycle NOISE is the GOD of the Biker Gang member, take that away, humble the Biker Gang Member by arrest and impounding their god, you will essentially castrate the Biker Gang’s raison d’etre.

Lee County Traffic Noise abuse and related fatalities…

Dear Governor Ron DeSantis and Lee County Commissioners, 

Why does Lee County, Florida allow our most innocent in Cape Coral, Fort Myers, Pine Island, to be audibly abused, harassed, their daily quality of life destroyed, their health and welfare compromised, by aggressive, illegally LOUD, motorcycles, trucks, automobiles, like those in the following videos, a mere sampling, of what I have recorded recently?

If Lee County’s Sheriff’s Department, the Cape Coral and Fort Myers PD, would actually enforce Florida’s State Law requiring the relatively quiet, safe, legal, factory-installed muffler and use illegal motor vehicle NOISE as probable cause for a vehicle stop and investigate, Lee County could cut their serious accidents and fatalities by 50% via stopping the aggressive driving behavior which is overwhelmingly accompanied by illegal vehicular NOISE.

If you have any questions, if you need someone capable of initiating a motor vehicle NOISE enforcement program, I can help you, but something needs to be done, NOW!

7) Illegally equipped motorcycles, Downtown, Fort Myers: https://youtube.com/shorts/NltWUKj9VbM

It would also be in the best interest of Lee County if the Commissioners would STOP allowing Cape Coral’s, Fort Myers’, Mayors from prostituting themselves and prostituting their Law Enforcement Agencies with the illegally LOUD Biker Cult[ure] via motorcycle “Bike Nights,” Rallies, flagrant vehicular NOISE abuse in the Downtown streets of Fort Myers; this, for revenue garnered via tax revenue. Our Sheriff, these Mayors, are openly flaunting Florida’s Muffler Statute that requires the OEM, quiet, safe, legal, factory-installed muffler.

Why do you Commissioners do nothing to counter this abuse of the citizenry, our children, the elderly, our handicapped, our families, as these illegally LOUD motorcycle thugs, LOUD auto and truck thugs, operate unencumbered in YOUR areas of responsibility?

Recently, subsequent my report of illegally loud, illegally equipped, police motorcycles forwarded to Lee County’s Legal Department, Lee County’s own Police Motorcycle Detail was warned to return their illegally loud, Cobra aftermarket exhaust equipped motorcycles back to OEM-factory installed condition in compliance with Florida’s State muffler law. That embarrassing fiasco can be seen here: https://rickeyholtsclaw.com/2022/05/03/lee-county-floridas-legal-department-does-the-right-thing/

This following paragraph from Section 293 is very important as it restricts using any non-original equipment which can increase noise limits on cars or other vehicles:

  (5) NOISE ABATEMENT EQUIPMENT MODIFICATIONS.— Florida State Law 

“(a) No person shall modify the exhaust system of a motor vehicle or any other noise-abatement device of a motor vehicle operated or to be operated upon the highways of this state in such a manner that the noise emitted by the motor vehicle is above that emitted by the vehicle as originally manufactured.”  

This makes it illegal to use any aftermarket modifications louder than ones your vehicle is manufactured with. All devices producing excessive exhaust noise are not legal. There are exceptions which include emergency vehicles, vehicles used in races or similar events, agricultural equipment, and test vehicles.

If you have any questions about the vehicular NOISE abuse in your jurisdiction, please see my article on this subject at: https://rickeyholtsclaw.com/2016/03/10/the-truth-about-loud-motorcycles-the-police-wont-or-cant-tell-you/

Thank you,

Why did Jesus say He does not know the day/hour of His return but only the Father?

Theological question: “Since Jesus is God why didn’t he know the time of His coming as put [stated] in Matthew 24:36.”

Consider this,

The Day of the Second Advent is fluid, wholly dependent upon free will choices made by human men and women in authority and those to whom the Gospel is given; that is, there is a certain specified, ordained, number of redeemed in Jesus that must be attained before the 2nd-Advent. The Father, as the Administrator of the Trinity, decides when that number of redeemed has been fulfilled.

Know that the Holy Spirit has told us there was one-third of the angelic creation that followed Lucifer/Satan in the Great Rebellion, that Rebellion being causation for the Creation Narrative. As physics will testify, our World, our atmosphere, hates a vacuum; that is, remove a certain volume of fluid from a particular entity and all of nature seeks to fill that void; no difference concerning the “void” left in the Spiritual Realm by those who allied with Satan’s covetousness resulting in their banishment from the Kingdom; that void will be replaced, restored, in number, a specific number, and the 2nd-Advent, the initiation of the Millennial Kingdom, will NOT manifest until said number has been attained; that is, until such “Time” a corresponding number of human kind responds to the Gospel and is prepared to enter the Kingdom for service, the end will not manifest and the Father will determine when that specific number has been attained; by divine authority, that number remains the sole property of the Father while the Son and the Spirit respect the Father’s discernment as the Administrator of all things concerning Time and Eternity and the New Jerusalem, order, holiness, peace.

1) Father – Administrator
2) Jesus – Son, Creator, Warrior, Messiah, Judge
3) Holy Spirit – Logistics

Satan’s rebellion and its horrific aftermath, having been played-out within the Realm of Time for the previous 6000-years, will be completely righted, corrected, healed, made whole, holiness – order restored, by the Father’s divine plan we know as “The Gospel” which was ordained as Elohim’s battle strategy “before Time began” (2 Timothy 1:8-9); in fact, the primary reason Jesus entered the temporary Realm of Time was “to destroy the works of the Devil” (1 John 3:8).

Destroying Satan’s works includes restoring all that Satan has destroyed and stolen, that one-third of the rebellious angelic creation will be restored by redeemed human kind, though redeemed humanity will not be angelic in origin, those restored through the Gospel will be dedicated resurrected servants of Jesus our Messiah in the New Jerusalem thereby closely duplicating the responsibilities of the angelic creation that chose via free will to leave their assigned responsibilities in the Kingdom; again, that specific number of redeemed subject to free will choices made within the Realm of Time belongs to the Father, the divine Administrator of Heaven, Earth, the eternal Kingdom. The Son and the Spirit honor and respect the Father’s eschatological will.

How do I establish a relationship with God?

How do I establish a relationship with God?

You build and nurture a “good relationship” with Elohim first by trusting in Jesus as your Messiah and receiving the indwelling Holy Spirit who is the divine conduit between mankind and the Father through Jesus (John 3; Ephesians 1:13-14; John 14:16).

Once a divine relationship with the Father is established through faith in Jesus (John 6:29; 14:16), you walk daily in obedience to the Holy Spirit’s leadership via daily Christian sanctification (Galatians 5:16) or “setting apart” yourself from the World’s desires to those desires of the Father for your life; that is, as a Christian, the objective is to produce divine fruit (Galatians 5:16-23) that glorifies the Father and demonstrates to the World that you are a faithful disciple of Jesus (John 15:8); this is the foundation of a healthy, eternal, relationship with Elohim (Genesis 1:1).

Prayer, thankfulness, intimacy, learning of Elohim’s divine will through a study of His written word, trusting, alone time, with Elohim is KEY to a divine relationship.

Why does Satan have access to Elohim according to the Book of Job?

Why does Satan have access to Elohim in the Kingdom; this, according to the Book of Job?

The entire creation narrative is rooted in Satan’s rebellion that manifest before Time began; in fact, the Gospel of Jesus our Messiah as the battle strategy to defeat Satan finds its origin in the Spiritual Realm “before Time began” (2 Timothy 1:8-9) and that war between Elohim and Satan was formally declared in Genesis 3:15 as a struggle between a Messiah who would enter Time via the seed of the woman (not man) and do battle with Satan as the Messiah would crush Satan’s head while Satan would bruise Messiah’s heal; this divine-spiritual war was concluded at Golgotha with Jesus victorious over the works of Satan e.g. death-Hell-the grave; in fact, the primary reason Jesus entered the Realm of Time/physics was “to destroy the works of Satan” (1 John 3:8b) via the Gospel which was first pictured for us in Genesis 3:21; this, demonstrating that Elohim, Himself, would shed innocent blood to clothe human kind in a gifted, imputed, robe of righteousness (animal skins) while Elohim simultaneously demonstrated that He would reject self-righteousness or works for righteousness as payment for sin; this, as Elohim rejected Adam’s futile attempt to cover his own sin and nakedness by the works of his hands via the application of fig leaves.

The Holy Spirit makes the effort to demonstrate for us the wartime relationship that exists between Elohim and Satan through the Book of Job in the Old Testament. Currently, Elohim and Satan are battling for the spirit of mankind and Elohim is employing the works of Satan as a sifter of righteousness and an exposer of the unrighteous. Satan is currently performing Elohim’s will as a sifter of wheat and tares. This war between Elohim and Satan will ultimately demonstrate to the two-thirds of the faithful angelic creation the necessity for obedience and honor concerning their relationship with Elohim and that same war between Elohim and Satan will ultimately be seen as a divine bulwark against rebellion in the New Jerusalem concerning redeemed mankind as mankind will have the historical knowledge of 6000-years of pure horror resulting from disobedience and compromise with evil and the Evil One; this being of necessity as free will exists throughout eternity in the New Jerusalem. The current war between Elohim and Satan that permeates this World and our soul will ultimately be a divine deterrence concerning future rebellion in the New Jerusalem where free will exists by necessity. Obedience to Elohim is eternally superior to sacrifice.

For this reason, Satan, a tool of Elohim concerning eternal righteousness in the Kingdom, has access to Elohim just as the leadership of warring factions in this World have access to one another concerning wartime negotiations; ultimately, Elohim will use Satan’s captivity during the Millennial Kingdom to prove once and for all time that Satan is the author of all suffering and death and horror; this, underscored by Satan’s release at the culmination of the Millennial Kingdom where rebellion via war is once again initiated by Satan; through this stark example of cause and effect, the two-thirds of the angelic hosts who have been observing Elohim’s battle with Satan over the previous 6000-years of human history will concur with Elohim that their former leader, Lucifer-Satan, a rebellious cherub angel, does indeed deserve punishment in Hell, eternally, (Revelation 20:10) and Elohim will be glorified by the angelic and redeemed humanity for His patience, wisdom, as Elohim will have successfully defeated Satan not by the sword but through Elohim’s own selfless love demonstrated through Messiah at Golgotha.

Why Jesus as the only acceptable atonement for sin?

Why Jesus as the atoning sacrifice for the sin of humanity?

Jesus is the ONLY One who can pay for the sin of humanity as Jesus is the ONLY One who meets the divine criteria for acceptable sacrifice for sin, sinlessness…void spot or blemish or wrinkle. This “sinless blood atonement” was first pictured for us in Genesis 3:21 as Elohim, Himself, shed innocent blood to cover the sin of Adam and Eve while Elohim rejected Adam’s attempt to cover his own sin by the works of his hands, fig leaves. Jesus is the spotless, sinless, Lamb of Elohim who was slain “before the foundation of the World” (Revelation 13:8). The war between Jesus and Satan was openly declared by the Holy Spirit in Genesis 3:15 as our Messiah would enter Time through the seed of a virgin woman absent the seed of man which passes the Adamic sin-nature (Romans 5:12).

Jesus entered Time “to destroy the works of Satan” (1 John 3:8b) and this plan was ordained before Genesis 1:1. The entirety of Biblical eschatology is predicated upon Elohim’s response to Satan’s great rebellion in the Kingdom; in fact, the Genesis creation narrative is a response to Satan’s rebellion as our Heavens and Earth are a temporary repository for the Great Kingdom War as Elohim restores holiness and peace to His own Heavenly Kingdom.

Our entire existence, causation for same, is predicated upon WAR!

Elohim’s selfless love observed at Golgotha is the divine response to Satan’s rebellion and Elohim’s plan for victory over evil. Elohim has displayed His divine LOVE for His created beings by giving Himself on the alter through suffering and death…this unfathomable sacrifice by Elohim will be THE eternal defining memory of our Creator’s faithfulness that will endure throughout Eternity as we dwell with Him in the New Jerusalem…worthy is the Lamb.

~1 Peter 1: 19 ~ Lamb slain before the foundation of the world. ~ Revelation 13:8~ Lamb that was slain from the creation of the world.

Vance & Hines Exhaust Manufacturing – Lawlessness and abuse defined…

Vance and Hines Exhaust Manufacturer – Lawlessness and abuse defined!

Vance and Hines is a horrible, subversive, company producing non-compliant “not for road use” illegally loud exhausts for the LOUD motorcycle cult[ure] and markets these dangerous NOISE makers for street-use motorcycles destroying daily quality of life while recklessly endangering the health and welfare of our most vulnerable. Vance and Hines is but one of numerous aftermarket exhaust manufacturers who mock the protective intent of the Code of Federal Regulations 40CFR Part 205. Vance and Hines exists in our society due to enforcement impotency on the part of the US EPA and State Governments, inept Attorney General representatives at the Federal and State level; this, as America’s most innocent are bullied by the LOUD biker cult[ure] daily and nightly completely void intervention by a failing, compromised, law enforcement community and America’s mayors; mayors who prostitute themselves with the LOUD biker cult[ure] via illegal biker rallies around the United States.

The Eternal Destination of those having died in body?

The Eternal Destination of those having died in body?

When one dies in body, they’re relegated to one of two destinations depending upon the personal choices made while constrained by Time and physics (Luke 16; 2 Corinthians 5:8).

1) Those who honor God the Father by trusting, believing, that the Son, Jesus our Messiah, died for them (John 6:29; John 3) and thereby paid the divine price for sin, death, and that by trusting in Jesus’ blood atonement they are saved by grace (unmerited favor) through faith…this person is instantaneously translated into the Spiritual Realm and into the presence of our Creator, fully conscious, keenly aware, awaiting the resurrection of the righteous and the reality of the New Jerusalem.

2) Those who die in body having rejected Jesus as Messiah are instantaneously relegated to the spiritual region/abode/realm of Sheol/Hades – Torments, fully aware and conscious, awaiting the resurrection of the condemned (John 5:29), the Great White Throne Judgment (Rev 20:11-15), where they will receive a resurrected body of corruption and stand before Jesus for adjudication concerning “works” done in the body (Ephesians 2:8-9; Galatians 2:16) during their time on Earth. These rebellious individuals will be adjudicated guilty of sin and consequently refused entrance into the Kingdom (Rev 21:27; 20;11-15) where they will ultimately suffer the “second death” in Hell…a point in eschatology running concurrently with the destruction of the current Heavens and Earth by fire (Rev 20-22).

2 Corinthians 5:8 We are confident, yes, well pleased rather to be absent from the body and to be present with the Lord.
