Best Self-Defense Caliber?
Should our Nation go to war against itself or an invading adversary the best “caliber(s)” are those that are and will be readily available which are primarily NATO authorized; hence, 22; 9mm; 223/5.56; 308/7.62; 7.62X39; 12-gauge shot shells in slug, 00-buck, #4-buck; therefore, any weapon that you choose to build or purchase as your GO-TO weapon chambered in a caliber other than these listed and should law and order completely collapse, you’ll be searching the dead for sustenance and a weapon chambered in these calibers.
Why can some see the signs of National degradation around us and others can’t?
Someone asked: “Why is it that some of us can see what is going on in the world and others can’t?”
Answer,
Because America is dying in Progressive filth and She will be relegated to impotency concerning foreign policy and as an ally to Israel as this is Elohim’s eschatological will as no one will come to Israel’s aid when the coalition of Russia-China-Iran/Islam come against Jerusalem, Israel in a nuclear conflict…only Jesus will intercede and defend Israel in that day. America’s current spiral into immoral filth is Satan’s work and almost two-thirds of America’s populous are his servants in spiritual ignorance and self-defilement.
Is repentance necessary for salvation?
Is “repentance” necessary for salvation or does true repentance follow salvation by faith in Jesus as Messiah, alone?
Jesus emphasized the need for “repentance” but is repentance an element of salvation or does repentance manifest subsequent salvation? Can one truly “repent” lest one is born again by the Holy Spirit through faith in Jesus?
Discussion, Premise, open for debate…
If one truly “believes” that Jesus is Messiah and desires an eternal relationship with the Father through faith in Jesus, repentance is integral with faith as that saving faith will naturally lead to a life seeking obedience, a new life in Jesus that turns away from the works of the Adamic nature as the conscience is now acutely attuned to compromise with sin; this, through daily sanctification, a work of the indwelling Holy Spirit given to all who believe (Galatians 5:16; Ephesians 1:13:14).
Repentance IS part of the total salvation experience but without the indwelling Holy Spirit given ONLY to those who “believe” (Ephesians 1:13-14; John 3)…true repentance is not possible; therefore, what comes first, the chicken or the egg?
The “desire” to repent is integral with true faith in Jesus as one realizes their need for Jesus’ atonement due their sin nature, but the ability to fulfill the desire to live a holy life is only actuated or made possible “subsequent” belief; this, as true repentance, the power and anointing to truly repent, is not possible void the indwelling Holy Spirit who initiates the “new creation” in Messiah (Ephesians 1:13-14; 2 Corinthians 5:17); so then, does one have to actually verbalize or say they repent of their sin in order to be saved? I think that’s open for debate but suggesting that verbalizing or repenting in order to be saved is a theological stretch, a subtle “works doctrine,” as it’s not practically possible to truly “repent” lest one is “born again” by faith-belief and has then received the indwelling Holy Spirit as Guarantor of New Covenant with the Father; yes, one can express a “desire” or a NEED to repent but desire does not equate to true repentance.
What say YOU? Is “belief”-faith in Jesus as Messiah who died for you the KEY to salvation or must one first repent?
Must one repent and demonstrate evidence of that repentance in conjunction with faith to be saved – or – are the fruits of repentance (Galatians 5) that follows salvation, fruits of righteousness inspired by the indwelling Holy Spirit, the validation and authentication that one’s “faith” is true saving faith; after all, Jesus did say “You will know them by their fruit” (Matthew 7:15-20)?
Jewish-Israeli Theological Error, death in Hell, concerning Ezekiel 18:20-23
Eternal Jewish-Israeli Theological Error: Does Ezekiel 18:20-23 nullify or negate the precepts of Christianity, the Gospel of Jesus Christ?
Ezekiel 18,
20 The soul who sins shall die. The son shall not bear the guilt of the father, nor the father bear the guilt of the son. The righteousness of the righteous shall be upon himself, and the wickedness of the wicked shall be upon himself.
21 “But if a wicked man turns from all his sins which he has committed, keeps all My statutes, and does what is lawful and right, he shall surely live; he shall not die. 22 None of the transgressions which he has committed shall be remembered against him; because of the righteousness which he has done, he shall live. 23 Do I have any pleasure at all that the wicked should die?” says the Lord God, “and not that he should turn from his ways and live?
Christian explanation to the Jew or Israelite who trusts Ezekiel 18 for salvation from death in Hell,
You are in error concerning Ezekiel and you are headed to death in Hell in your sin concerning your rejection of Jesus. Please allow this old “Christian” to explain…
In Ezekiel 18, the prophet speaks of those who repent and place their faith in Elohim as the One true Creator; this repentance accompanied by faith is the very same process that men and men, from Adam forward, exercised to find righteousness “a right standing” with Elohim; that is, by “grace through faith” (Hebrews 11).
From the Genesis forward, human kind has initiated righteousness or “a right standing” with the Father by faith, alone…this is true also for the New Covenant established in the blood of Jesus our Messiah (Matthew 26:28)…
SO THEN, WHAT DOES CHRISTIANITY OFFER THAT THE OLD TESTAMENT AND THE LAW COVENANT DOES NOT?
The New Covenant offers eternal LIFE in the New Jerusalem with Messiah Jesus, forever, while the Hebrew Scriptures offered righteousness by faith but provided NO FORM of acceptable atonement for sin (Leviticus 17:11); therefore, those in the Old Testament who died in righteousness with Elohim via faith could NOT enter the Kingdom due their sin that had not yet received the acceptable blood atonement (Leviticus 17:11; Hebrews 8-10), blood atonement provided ONLY by faith in Messiah Jesus at Golgotha (1 Peter 1:18-19; John 14:6); therefore, these Old Testament saints were interned spiritually in Sheol-Hades/Paradise awaiting the promised Messiah (Luke 16; Psalm 16:10).
The Holy Spirit teaches that while Messiah’s body lie in state in the tomb, Messiah Jesus was very busy preaching liberty to the Old Testament captives in Sheol-Hades/Paradise and ultimately redeemed them and escorted them into the Kingdom of Elohim, a Kingdom where nothing impure is permitted to enter (Revelation 21:27), the Kingdom of Elohim where all who die in Jesus as Messiah are translated spiritually this very day (Ephesians 4:8-10; 2 Corinthians 5:8).
In conclusion,
Therefore, though the Holy Spirit via Ezekiel emphasizes salvation by faith, the message is incomplete as salvation, in the Hebrew Scriptures, was lacking acceptable atonement (Hebrews 8:7); therefore, Ezekiel does not nullify the superiority and necessity for Christianity, the Gospel, but Ezekiel simply articulates the foundation upon which Christianity is based; that is, salvation by grace through faith; this, while Christianity offers eternal life through Messiah Jesus’ atonement, something Ezekiel or Moses or the blood of animals or Torah could never provide (Hebrews 10).
What does Jesus mean by “If you love me, you will obey my commandments”?
Judaistic-Islamist-Religionist misunderstanding relevant to Messiah’s words “If you love me, you will obey my commandments.” John 14:15
What does Jesus say immediately following John 14:15?
“I will ask the Father, and he will give you another Helper, who will stay with you forever. He is the Spirit, who reveals the truth about God. The world cannot receive him, because it cannot see him or know him. But you know him, because he remains with you and is in you.”John 14:16-17
Discussion,
First of all, Jesus IS NOT advocating for or teaching a works based religion or salvation by works in John 14:15 nor is Jesus suggesting that obeying His commands engenders eternal security.
Jesus was speaking to a transitional audience that had lived under the law covenant now transitioning to the Covenant of Grace (New Covenant) and Jesus said that if these former slaves to the written code (Romans 7:6; Romans 6:14) loved Him, they would honor and obey what He has told them, taught them, during His 3.5-year Earthly ministry and in order for these former slaves serving a dead law covenant to actually obey Messiah’s message, they must first comply with the Father’s will and honor Him as Messiah (John 6:29), receive the indwelling Holy Spirit who would remind them of everything Jesus had taught over those years (John 14:26); therefore, if one desires to honor Jesus’ teaching ministry and the edicts He provided, they must first honor the Father by faith in the Son (John 6:29), receive the indwelling Holy Spirit as Guarantor of that New Covenant relationship (Ephesians 1:13-14) and walk by the Spirit in daily sanctification (Galatians 5:16) thereby allowing the Spirit to produce fruit through the redeemed conscience (Galatians 5; 2 Corinthians 5:17) of the faithful in Jesus; this obedience manifests through the spiritual law written upon the heart (Romans 8:2; Romans 2:14-15) as per New Covenant promise (Hebrews 10:16).
Jesus’ “commandments” are fulfilled by walking in obedience to the indwelling Holy Spirit during daily sanctification, sanctification manifesting subsequent salvation by faith and NOT by chasing after letters from a dead covenant of works (Hebrews 8:7) that only defines sin and demanded obedience from a sin nature that could never comply and provided no hope of atonement or life (Romans 3:20; Galatians 2:16).
It is the devil, himself, that indwells the blind legalist and hides this truth from the Judaistic – Islamist – Religionist legalist that prowls these forums seeking to enslave the servants of Messiah with cult practices (2 Corinthians 4:4).
How are the Scriptures made applicable to one’s daily life?
How are the Scriptures made applicable to one’s daily life?
The Holy Spirit is KEY to understanding the Scriptures (John 14:16-29). Much like the programming of software, you input the “word” through reading and personal study, the Holy Spirit takes that input and makes same applicable to your life and your understanding relevant to the Father’s divine will.
Void the Holy Spirit’s anointing provided only through faith in Jesus as one’s Messiah (Ephesians 1:13-14), you will NEVER truly understand the spiritual nuance of the Scriptures nor will true intimacy with the Father become a reality in your daily life (1 Corinthians 2:14).
You must take the time, you must make the effort, to input the “word” into the redeemed inner man and the Holy Spirit magnifies that input, interprets it for you and makes same applicable to every facet of your life via the daily process of sanctification (1 John 2:27; Galatians 5:16).
Israel v. Iran-Islam…what’s the truth about Islam?
Israel v. Iran-Hamas-Hezbollah-Russia-China-Anti Semitism…do not be deceived…
Do NOT be deceived, the current conflict between Israel v. Hamas-Iran-Hezbollah-Islam is a physical manifestation of the Great Kingdom War between Elohim v. Satan having manifested in the Realm of Time via Islam’s Allah.
The spiritual root of the Israel – Islam conflict is pre-Adamic, pre-Creation yet finds its current relevance in the adulterous affair between the Patriarch Abraham and a bondwoman named Hagar. Elohim’s eschatological plan and purposes were foreordained to be fulfilled through Abram (Abraham) via Abram’s wife, Sari (Sarah) via Isaac (Genesis 22:17-18); unfortunately, both Abraham and Sarah demonstrated a lack of faith in Elohim’s promises and Sarah, in a vain attempt to negate her shame due infertility, enticed her husband, Abraham, to engage in sexual intercourse with Sarah’s handmaiden, Hagar, and Sarah would then claim the child as her own. As is typical, Abraham reaped what he sowed in his sexual sin with Hagar as well as his sin of refusing to wait upon Elohim’s promises (Genesis 12:3; Genesis 18:12-15).
The tragic results of Abraham’s infidelity,
Abraham’s adulterous union with Hagar produced the “wild ass” of a man named Ishmael (Genesis 16:12) whose descendants, the Ishmaelites, would become virulent enemies of Israel’s children; Ishmael’s descendants were prophesied to be adversaries of everyone not of their Tribal affiliation and they would dwell to the east of their brethren, Jacob’s children, just as they do this very day.
Islam’s Allah, who is he?
Satan has worked through the Ishmaelites to produce a 7th-Century demon-possessed, murdering, thieving, pedophile, named Muhammad who plagiarized the Jewish Torah in hopes of convincing the Jews and Christians in Media to follow his new religion. When the Jews and Christians rejected Muhammad, the false prophet began to persecute, enslave, murder, Jews and Christians by the edge of the sword and from this demonically inspired hatred was born the Islamic Caliphate and ultimately the Crusades in response. Most recently, Allah’s demonic objectives are observable in Time via the Jewish Holocaust and the 2nd Jewish Holocaust, October 7, 2023.
Islam’s Allah is Satan masquerading as an angel of light via the Arabic moon god (2 Corinthians 11:14) and currently Islam’s number-one representative in this fallen World is the Nation of Iran.
The current state of war between Israel and Iran, Hamas-Iran, Hezbollah-Iran; the current state of anti-Israel rhetoric and unprecedented rise in antisemitism is rooted in the demonic and know that those who chant “from the river to the sea, Palestine will be free” are those who serve the Devil in his lust to declare Elohim a liar and to nullify Elohim’s unconditional covenant with Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, concerning their rights to the Land of Israel, forever (Genesis 13:14-18).
Know this with certainty,
The Land of Israel will remain viable irrespective of Allah’s demonic objectives through Iran, Russia, China and Elohim will save a “remnant” of Israel’s children through the coming Tribulation Era as this remnant will believe in Yeshua as Messiah and rule and reign with Messiah for one-thousand-years during Messiah’s Millennial Kingdom (Zechariah 12:10; Isaiah 10:22; Romans 9:27); therefore, those who side with Palestine, Iran, Hezbollah, the antisemites, side with the Devil AKA Allah and they will surely reap what they are sowing; both, in the Realm of Time and within the Realm of the Eternal.
The Who, What, Where, When, Why, How, concerning the Biblical Creation Narrative…
Biblical Cliffs Notes – The who, what, where, when, why, how, relevant to what the Holy Spirit has provided mankind in the Canon of Scripture…
1) The ONLY reason for the Genesis Creation Narrative is Elohim’s response to an unfathomable angelic rebellion in the Kingdom of Elohim.
2) Elohim’s sovereign decision to deal with the Great Kingdom War was to commission the Son, Jesus Christ (John 3:35), to take elements from the unseen Spiritual Realm and fashion those elements into matter that can be apprehended by a life-form constrained by Time and physics (Hebrews 11:3; Genesis 1:1; John 1; Hebrews 1; Colossians 1).
3) Elohim, the Father, Son, Spirit, collaborated on Day-6 of the Genesis Narrative to create the complex human genome in their spiritual image; this, for eschatological purposes going forward.
4) Subsequent Day-6 of the Creation Narrative, the rebellious participants in the Great Kingdom War were extricated from the Kingdom and placed upon this Earth (Luke 10:18) as the Kingdom War is now partially constrained by Time and physics, the leader of that rebellion placed in Eden, his physical attributes described for us through the prophet Ezekiel in Chapter 28:11+ and his spiritual attributes analogized as a crafty serpent (Genesis 3:1; Revelation 12:9; John 8:44).
5) Elohim, the Father, made the sovereign choice to ordained the Son, Jesus Christ our Messiah, as Warrior King who would do battle with the Serpent and a Declaration of War was established in Genesis 3:15 as the Messiah would enter Time through the virgin seed in order to circumvent the curse of the sin-nature passed through Adam’s genome (Romans 5:12) and the Messiah would be victorious over the Serpent by crushing the head of the Serpent but Messiah’s victory would not be without injurious ramifications i.e. the Crucifixion e.g., a bruising of Messiah’s heal (1 John 3:8b).
6) Elohim, in Genesis 3:21, provides a word picture of the divine “battle strategy” (the Gospel of Jesus Christ) that would be employed by Elohim, Himself, through the shedding of innocent blood in order to clothe sinful humanity in an imputed robe of righteousness (2 Corinthians 5:21) while rejecting the works, efforts, self-righteousness, of humanity to conceal his own sin (fig leaves).
7) From Genesis 3:21 forward, the entirety of Scripture, the Holy Spirit’s work through forty anointed men of old, is focused upon Elohim’s eschatological plan to destroy the works of the devil via selfless love; this victory accomplished by Messiah at Golgotha with the words “It is finished.”
8 ) From the Gospel of John 19:30 forward, the Holy Spirit details the purposes for the Great Commission; the New Covenant Church; the reasoning for the Time of the Great Tribulation; the purpose for the Millennial Kingdom; the necessity for the Judgment of the Devil and his angels; the necessity for the Judgment of the Condemned involving humanity; the destruction of this Earth and the Heavens – their purification by fire and the creation of a New Heaven and a New Earth and the placement of the New Jerusalem where the resurrected redeemed in Messiah Jesus will serve King Jesus, forever, in resurrected bodies fashioned after Messiah’s resurrected body (Philippians 3:21).
9) In summation, the previous 6000-years of demonically motivated horror upon this temporary Earth; the 1000-years of peace during Messiah’s Millennial Kingdom, will act as bulwark against future rebellion in the Kingdom where free will remains extant by necessity.
10) Therefore, the entirety of Scripture, the primary purpose for the existence of Time, physics, humanity, is as a response to the Great Kingdom War, this Earth as a temporary repository for a demonically led rebellion in the Kingdom of Elohim where nothing impure is permitted to enter (Revelation 21:27); this, as Elohim is currently reestablishing order, holiness, peace, to His Kingdom ravaged by the covetous desires of a charismatic rebellious cherub angel known to humankind as the Devil, Satan, the Serpent, the Evil One; this, as Elohim endeavors to maintain intimacy and volitional relationship with His faithful, beautiful, angelic creation that He loves, cherishes and adores beyond human comprehension.
Finally, by faith in Messiah Jesus as King, humankind has been granted the opportunity to ally with Elohim in the Great Kingdom War, a spiritual war that rages around us, through us (Ephesians 6); those who trust in Messiah Jesus as Lord and Savior will live eternally with Elohim in the New Jerusalem (John 14:3).
