Christianity v. Atheism; Light v. Darkness; Creation v. Evolution; Commonsense v. Absurdity

Christians are people who have sought answers to life’s questions and pursed those answers not in Darwin’s foolishness (Origin of the Species) but in the Canon of Scripture and Christians believe that the Scriptures are authored by Elohim, the Holy Spirit (Genesis 1:2), and that the Canon provides the who, what, where, when, why, concerning mankind’s presence within the Realm of Time and our destiny subsequent death of the body; whereas, the atheist – evolutionist believes that life evolved from nothing via a cataclysmic explosion of energy from an unknown cause and from this chaos all life, the complex human genome, and unfathomable design was formed and functions.

Christians are people who believe that life is present for cause, life has a purpose beyond 70-years of seeking to evade death of the body. Christians believe that all of creation has manifest for cause with purpose and that Elohim (Genesis 1:1) is the Author of all life, Time, matter, and Elohim has created the Worlds for a specific eschatological purpose which is expounded upon within the Canon of Scripture and demonstrated by our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.

Christians believe that obedience to the moral law written upon our heart by our Creator is the highest goal of human existence and that intimate relationship with our Creator is the epitome of all existence within Time and Eternity and this intimate relationship with our Creator is only possible by grace through faith in Jesus our Messiah believing that Jesus died to pay our sin-debt owed the Father, a debt we could never pay our self (John 3:16).

On the other hand, the atheist believes that life is defined by randomness and chaos and nihilism and that sensual pleasure, the flesh, the orgasm, narcissism, are the goals of existence; therefore, “if it feels good, do it“….”party hearty” because tomorrow we die.

For me personally, I’ll trust the Holy Spirit’s version, thank you.

Concerning those who struggle to make themselves worthy of God’s acceptance…

Concerning those who struggle to make themselves worthy of Elohim’s mercy and grace…

It is NOT you or your work or your efforts that engender acceptance by the Father but it is the work and faithfulness of Jesus and His selfless love for the Father and for YOU demonstrated at the Cross that makes you worthy, acceptable, when you trust in Jesus as your Messiah because the perfection – beauty – holiness – righteousness of Jesus is GIFTED YOU by grace (unmerited favor you cannot earn through human effort) through faith-trust-belief in Jesus as your Messiah (2 Corinthians 5:21) and the Father, by New Covenant promise, declares you “not guilty” (Hebrews 8:12) and the Father makes the affirmative decision to only see His dear Son IN YOU not your sin, not your frailty, not your wretchedness, but HIS SON’S PURITY and you are welcomed as a result of this imputed-gifted righteousness into the Family of Elohim and you subsequently belong to Him eternally, you are Elohim’s beloved child and nothing, no one, will ever snatch you out of His hand, forever (John 10:28-30). This is the truth, simplicity and veracity of the Gospel of Jesus our Messiah. Only Jesus is the Way and the Truth and the Life-eternal that paves the Path to Life in Eternity, the New Jerusalem (John 14:6).

New Covenant Salvation, Works & James’ confusing admonition – “faith without works is dead”

Religion - Christianity, , , , , , , ,
Concerning New Covenant Salvation, Works and the Apostle James’ confusing admonition…

James 2.26 “For as the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without works is dead also.”

Christian explanation,

Faith (noun) (belief – trust) that is true, confessed and sincerely placed in Messiah Jesus as our Lord engendering New Covenant relationship with the Father is not “dead” but alive, active, through the indwelling Holy Spirit and the veracity, reality, of this active faith is the production of divine fruit (Galatians 5:22-23) via the anointing and leadership of the Spirit (Galatians 5:16). Saving faith initiates behavior (fruit) that is pleasing to the Father (John 15:8) but behavior does not initiate New Covenant relationship; all things in their divine order – faith (noun) first then obedience that pleases the Father because that obedience is the resultant of the indwelling Holy Spirit who is ONLY given to those who have “believed” by faith that Jesus is Messiah (Ephesians 1:13-14).

You cannot put the cart before the horse and expect results. Faith first…obedience follows; otherwise, our work is interpreted as a “filthy garment” in Elohim’s nose (Isaiah 64:6) and our Lord Jesus will declare “Depart from me you workers of iniquity, I never knew you” if you seek the Kingdom by your own efforts and deny the work performed for you by Messiah at Golgotha (Matthew 7:21-23).

Relationship FIRST by faith (noun) in the Son, Jesus our Messiah – righteous behavior follows via the anointing of the indwelling Holy Spirit (Galatians 5:16; Ezekiel 36:27).

In Him you also trusted, after you heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation; in whom also, having believed, you were sealed with the Holy Spirit of promise, who is the guarantee of our inheritance until the redemption of the purchased possession, to the praise of His glory.

Why is the “law of conscience” in the New Covenant vastly-infinitely superior to Sinai or Moses?

Religion - Christianity, , , , , , , , , ,

Why is the “law of conscience” (Romans 2:14-15) as arbitrated by the indwelling Holy Spirit in the New Covenant vastly-infinitely superior to Sinai’s Commandments or Moses’ 603 edicts scratched upon parchment?

Discussion,

The law written upon the heart is extant concerning moral edicts that are employed by the indwelling Holy Spirit in the New Covenant to address every moral scenario confronted by the Christian, daily…every second of every day.

This is why the law as written upon the heart and arbitrated by the Holy Spirit in the New Covenant is eternally and vastly superior to Sinai or Moses’ codified-written laws as Sinai and Moses’ written code is subject to various interpretations, obfuscation, justification, rationalization, by the sin-nature but NOT SO with the law as written upon the heart and arbitrated by the indwelling Holy Spirit in the New Covenant as even the most minute of conflict concerning a daily moral encounter or scenario is immediately addressed by the Spirit within the Christian…the conscience is immediately given direction toward righteousness…there is no equivocation…there is no doubt about what is the “right thing” to do in any given moral encounter even though the individual is free to choose good or evil; in this way, the Christian learns over time that the right thing is to always choose good and honor the Father through obedience because the redeemed conscience controlled by the Spirit demands it and if and when the Christian sins by rejecting the Spirit’s guidance, their conscience becomes beleaguered; their conscience is plagued by guilt and consequently, intimacy with our Creator is disrupted until we repent of our disobedience and ask forgiveness to restore intimacy (1 John 1:9); intimacy with our Creator being the greatest gift to humanity through faith.

This intuitive work of the Spirit through the conscience of the redeemed in Jesus is why the law of conscience, extant from eternity past as an arbiter of free will, is infinitely superior to a written-codified code weakened by the sin-nature (Romans 8; 1-3).

Concerning “Perfect Faith” through works…what is the Truth?

Concerning “perfected faith” through works…what is the Truth?

Discussion,

To those legalists who mock my position of salvation by grace through faith (noun) apart from works, you’re theologically corrupted. 

No need to be “sorry”…just get your theology squared away and trust fully in Jesus and His suffering on your account for salvation, not yourself or your works. There is no “perfected faith” in humanity other than that faith which engenders New Covenant relationship with the Father by faith (noun) in the Son and the “perfection” of faith is only relevant due the Father’s grace who accepts our flawed faith as perfect faith for His eschatological purposes.  

Breaking NEWS:

The creation of the Heavens and the Earth and the complex human genome do not find their relevance in humanity but in Elohim’s perfect eschatological will concerning the defeat of Satan and the fallen angles (1 John 3:8b); humanity is but a player in that struggle via the Gospel of Jesus Christ ordained “before Time began” (2 Timothy 1:8-9); therefore, know your lowly position in the Realm of Time and concede to the Father’s eschatological imperatives lest you become haughty and arrogant and self-righteous. 

You are filthy flesh who is offered imputed perfection by grace in response to faith (noun) in the PERFECT Messiah. You can’t earn it, you don’t deserve it, but Elohim’s grace is sufficient for the one willing to “believe” and “trust” in Jesus as blood atonement for sin.  

It is the “new creation” in Messiah (2 Corinthians 5:17) that walks by the anointing of the indwelling Holy Spirit (Galatians 5:16) and allows the Spirit to work through them via the production of divine “fruit” (Galatians 5:22-23) which fulfills all law and all righteous works…this is NOT a work of the flesh but of the Spirit; a divine work that glorifies the Father, not ourselves (John 15:8).

Why the repetitive strife between Islam (Muslim World) and Israel?

Why the repetitive strife between Islam (the Muslim World) and Israel?

Islam is representative of Satan in Time and the spiritual war between Satan and Elohim that was initiated before Time was created. Islam is a product of adultery between Abraham and Hagar while the child of promise is Isaac through Sarah, not Ishmael through Hagar; therefore, the struggle between Israel (Jacob, the son of Isaac) and Ishmael’s descendants finds its genesis in unfaithfulness and strife i.e., sin. The entirety of Scripture details this war between Satan and Elohim and expounds upon why the Messiah appeared in Time; specifically, “to destroy the works of Satan” through the Gospel (1 John 3:8b), a Gospel ordained “before Time began” (2 Timothy 1:8-10).

Israel is the eschatological Land of promise through which Elohim will sum-up all things through Messiah, the Millennial Kingdom, the judgement of Satan (Revelation 20:10) and the judgment of unrepentant humanity (Revelation 20:11-15), the creation of a New Earth and New Heaven and the establishment of the New Jerusalem (Revelation 21-22); therefore, Israel will remain and will soon come under a nuclear attack initiated by the demonic coalition of Russia-China-Islam/Iran v. Jerusalem, Israel…this will initiate the 2nd-Advent of Messiah Jesus; therefore, Israel will remain irrespective of Allah’s (Satan’s) intent.

How were people in the Old Testament saved from death in Hell?

How were people in the Old Testament saved from death in Hell?

Discussion,

All of humanity, from Adam to this very day, were and are saved by “faith,” alone (Hebrews 11). Faith internalized; that is, “believing” Elohim is the One true Creator and that Elohim is faithful to do all that He has promised.

It is written,

What then shall we say that Abraham, our forefather according to the flesh, discovered in this matter? 2 If, in fact, Abraham was justified by works, he had something to boast about—but not before God. 3 What does Scripture say? “Abraham believed God, and it was credited to him as righteousness.” Romans 4:1-3 (Genesis 15:6)

Why was Messiah Jesus necessary?

Jesus’ divine incarnation, the hypostatic union of deity and humanity (Philippians 2:5-11), was essential in order that mandated sinless blood atonement be made manifest for the purification of sin (Leviticus 17:11; Hebrews 10; Matthew 26:28) thereby permitting access to the Kingdom subsequent death of the body in Time (2 Corinthians 5:8); that is, “nothing impure” will ever enter the Kingdom (Rev 21:27); therefore, those who perished in death of the body prior to Messiah’s sacrificial blood atonement, these Old Testament saints, having died in faith, awaited Messiah’s atoning sacrifice for the purification of sin while detained in Sheol-Paradise (Luke 16; Psalm 16:10). Subsequent Messiah’s blood sacrifice, these Old Testament saints were escorted out of Sheol-Paradise into the Kingdom (Ephesians 4:7-10; Luke 23:43).

Faith (noun) has always been the KEY to Elohim’s heart and personal intimacy, righteousness, with Him; this, relevant to all Old Testament and New Testament men and women having attained an age of accountability. Jesus is the divine “Door” (John 10:9-16) to the Kingdom for all who “believe” by “faith” that He, alone, is Messiah who died for the sins of the whole World (John 1:29; 1 Peter 1:18-19; 1 John 2:1-2).

Saved by faith, alone? (Romans 4:4-5)

Saved by faith, alone? (Romans 4:4-5)

Discussion,

If salvation is a reality in your life by faith, alone…works that substantiate, validated, authenticate, that saving faith will be produced through you by the indwelling Holy Spirit as “fruits of the Spirit”….it is by these fruits of the Spirit (Galatians 5:16-23) that the Father is glorified and evidence of your salvation is made manifest to the World. All law (spiritual and codified) is observed and obeyed through the production of Spiritual fruit (Galatians 5:23).

You are saved from the “second death” in Hell by faith (noun) alone….that saving faith (noun) is evidenced by faith (verb) that produces fruit as a result of the indwelling Holy Spirit who is gifted everyone who believes that Jesus is Messiah; this, by faith (noun) (Ephesians 1:13-14; Galatians 2:16).

It has been said that there exists some 1050 New Testament Commandments – what is the Christian to do concerning obedience that pleases Elohim?

Discussion,

Christians do NOT chase after letters whether those letters are etched in stone, scratched upon parchment or codified in the Old Covenant or the New Covenant…Christians don’t chase letters because the letter kills but the Spirit gives life; that is, Christians walk daily by the indwelling Holy Spirit (Galatians 5:16; John 14:26) and it is He, alone, who enlivens the “spiritual law” written upon the human heart and mates that enlivened spiritual law with the redeemed conscience, the “new creation” (2 Corinthians 5:17), and this mating of spiritual law – the redeemed conscience forms a divine catalyst whereby the Spirit produces divine “fruit” (Galatians 5:16-23) through the redeemed in Jesus and this divine fruit fulfills every moral law whether they be codified or spiritual (Galatians 5:23); in fact, you cannot remember all that Jesus taught sufficiently to apply same when confronted with the myriad of moral decisions encounter daily; this work of the Holy Spirit through the redeemed is the ONLY way a man or woman pleases the Father through daily sanctification via obedience to the Holy Spirit, an anointing, divine work, of the Spirit, the Spirit’s work through you that prepares the Father’s children for service in the New Jerusalem. If you were capable of keeping letters sufficiently to please the Father, Jesus died needlessly (Galatians 2:21). It is the Spirit who is glorified through our obedience to His guidance and leadership.

Discussion,

Conservatives – Christians clamor and fret and worry over our fallen World and the Nation of America that is leading the way to Hell yet we fail to understand that all we see is nothing more than a modernized reiteration of what has manifest in response to an angelic coup d’etat initiated by a rebellious, anointed, cherub angel, a coup d’etat waged against Elohim that is foundational to the creation of matter, Time, physics, the human genome, the Heavens and this temporary Earth as a temporary repository for that angelic coup.

America’s Democrat – Progressive Party is NOTHING new or novel within the Realm of Time as these people are the demonic seed of the Adamic and Noahic generations that were annihilated by water save eight…same people, same servitude to the pagan god of Molech (child sacrifice – abortion) and Baal (sexual immorality identified in this current generation as LGBTQAI++).

Nothing new or novel to see here people…just a hoard of demons and the demonically possessed having methodically infused America’s posterity with their wickedness and vileness celebrated as “freedom” via atheism and secular humanism and abortion and sexual perversion.

America’s enemies are the Party of Darkness i.e. Progressive-Democrats-Marxists and their attributes are insolence, rebellion, arrogance, ignorance and moral defilement and they will proliferate, procreate, until that Day; therefore, as America dies in Hell do not be dismayed, those who belong to Messiah Jesus are not yet HOME (Hebrews 13:14-16).
