SIN AND THE SECULAR WORLD

(The earth divided)

Job 1:1 - There was a man in the land of Uz, whose name was Job; and that man was perfect and upright, and one that feared God, and eschewed evil.

Mat 5:48 - Be ye therefore perfect, even as your Father which is in heaven is perfect.

Perfect meaning-I.brought to its end, finished; II.wanting nothing necessary to completeness; III.perfect; IV.that which is perfect; A.consummate human integrity and virtue; B.of men; i.full grown, adult, of full age, mature

Luk 6:40 - The disciple is not above his master: but every one that is perfect shall be as his master.

Jas 1:4 - But let patience have her perfect work, that ye may be perfect and entire, wanting nothing.

2Co 13:11 - Finally, brethren, farewell. Be perfect, be of good comfort, be of one mind, live in peace; and the God of love and peace shall be with you.

Praise God, holy people, that we can be and have everything God tells us we can be and have. God freely empowers us to receive of Him all that we need, as He continuously molds us in His righteousness.

God’s eternal and permanent division of the earth is not in any sense a division of equal kingdoms. Dearly beloveds, God has divided His all- powerful, eternal superior kingdom of righteousness in every way and sense from the inferior unrepentant evil temporal secular kingdom of men, whose ruler is the devil.

Secular nations often co-operate, and some even join together to become one. Unlike the secular divide God’s eternal spiritual divide is complete in and of itself, and will never be joined to any secular nation. This might shock those who often like to decree that this or that nation is a “Christian nation”. No secular nation ever has any agenda to put God’s plan above its own national secular interest.

Only the gospel saves. I thank God for the opportunity to witness to a lifelong catholic, who was introduced to that apostate religion as a child. Praise God she received Jesus Christ as her Saviour and turned her back on that demonic cult. Brothers and sisters, I did not nor could I save her; but God did through the gospel of the only Saviour Jesus Christ. 1Co 1:21 - For after that in the wisdom of God the world by wisdom knew not God, it pleased God by the foolishness of preaching to save them that believe.

Jde 1:23 - And others save with fear, pulling them out of the fire; hating even the garment spotted by the flesh.

Thank God for Jesus Christ. Thank God who has given us brothers and sisters in Him and for our families, friends, and all the things of earth we can enjoy, and use without abusing. However, in the midst of all this let us keep in mind we are to walk in the whole truth and love of the Bible.

Brothers and sisters, let us keep in mind that this world is only temporary in which we must in every way do the work and will of God tirelessly. I pray we will honor the gospel message by keeping it pure, and uncontaminated with any private interpretations, psychobabble; personal opinions and false doctrines of apostates spreading the doctrines of demons. And this we will do by the power of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ.

SIN AND THE SECULAR WORLD

(The earth divided)

Brothers and sisters, God created and divided the secular world into nations, which is a physical divide. However, God’s eternal spiritual divide is much more severe and final. We must pay attention and heed the eternal truth of God and cease to see the world as merely divided in the sense of a national or geo-political way. Believe God, dearly beloveds, He has divided the secular world between good and evil. This means He has also divided His righteous people from the evil people of the kingdom of the devil.

Mat 13:38 - The field is the world; the good seed are the children of the kingdom; but the tares are the children of the wicked one;

Mat 13:39 - The enemy that sowed them is the devil; the harvest is the end of the world; and the reapers are the angels

Mat 13:40 - As therefore the tares are gathered and burned in the fire; so shall it be in the end of this world.

Mat 13:49 - So shall it be at the end of the world: the angels shall come forth, and sever the wicked from among the just,

The righteous people of God’s kingdom grow unto righteousness through faith and obedience to God. The unrepentant wicked wax worse and worse though willfully and knowingly following their own wickedness and the wishes of their father the devil: 2Ti 3:13 - But evil men and seducers shall wax worse and worse, deceiving, and being deceived.

Some brothers and sisters wonder how do we know who is good and who is evil. God tells through the eternal truth of the Bible, His eternal standard of who He declares is eternally good and who He declares is eternally  evil. At the least our understanding shall wholly abide in the eternal truth that good and evil are never mixed in any way or manner whatsoever, they are eternally distinct and separated eternally for all time.

SIN AND THE SECULAR WORLD

(An autopsy of the spirit of mankind)

Luk 16:22 - And it came to pass, that the beggar died, and was carried by the angels into Abraham's bosom: the rich man also died, and was buried23 - And in hell he lift up his eyes, being in torments,…

The Bible clearly depicts that the spiritually dead arrive in hell fully conscious of the fact that they are in hell. They retain their emotions, even regret, just as when they were alive in their physical bodies and even retain the capacity to feel the pain of hell fire and thirst due to the total absence of water there.

The spiritually dead retain the same physical appearance they had in their physical bodies when they died. It is safe to say that after death people do not lose the physical appearance they had when they were alive, this is true of the righteous and the unrighteous for example: Luk 16:23 - And in hell he lift up his eyes, being in torments, and seeth Abraham afar off, and Lazarus in his bosom.

The unrepentant wicked in hell are not the children of God, but of the devil. This is because all the evil kinds of works that the devil does, evil people do also, and they do it willfully, knowingly. Jesus Christ in His own words describes all such persons:

Jhn 8:44 - Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it.

The spiritually dead are people who voluntarily chose to belong to the devil and his camp. Not even the devil can send people to hell. People wind up there because they chose to reject God’s One and only standard for righteousness and eternal life His Son and sinless Saviour Jesus Christ.

The spiritually dead in hell can see others who share their surroundings, and apparently can converse with them.

The rich man petitioned Abraham to send Lazarus to go and witness to the rich man’s brothers so that they could believe and not go to hell also. But Abraham replied:  Luk 16:31And he said unto him, If they hear not Moses and the prophets, neither will they be persuaded, though one rose from the dead. None of the prophets proclaimed themselves as being able to save people. No one can get away with worshipping any prophet, or anyone else other than the Saviour Jesus Christ. Those who do so are without excuse.

Jesus Explains the Prophecies

Luk 24:25Then he said unto them, O fools, and slow of heart to believe all that the prophets have spoken: 26Ought not Christ to have suffered these things, and to enter into his glory? 27And beginning at Moses and all the prophets, he expounded unto them in all the scriptures the things concerning himself.

All the prophets including Moses testified of Jesus Christ: Act 10: 43  To him give ALL the prophets witness, that through his name whosoever believeth in him shall receive remission of sins.

SIN AND THE SECULAR WORLD

(An autopsy of the spirit of mankind)

We have to tirelessly tell the whole gospel message, brothers and sisters. Whether people like it or not, doesn’t matter, it is absolutely vital for them to know and understand the whole gospel truth. It matters when people casually brush off the gospel message. They need to know  that they will pay the price, to face the wrath of God, and be sent to hell to await God’s final judgement in the lake of fire with the devil and all his evil followers.

The Bible carefully teaches how unrepentant hatred of God, and refusal to believe the gospel message of Jesus Christ leads to spiritual death, after the death of the physical body of unbelieving mankind. No one will ever wind up in hell accidently.

The whole of scripture is for our teaching and learning how God wants us to live, however; the whole New Covenant of Jesus Christ is the absolute-explicit exclusive, eternal, final truth, and complete standard for righteousness for all men for all time.

All are commanded to believe God, who tells all men for all time that His Son alone is the only One appointed to take away all sins of all who believe on Him. Do not add, do not take away, from His word. Do not refuse to hear Him.

Perhaps some might be fearful and worry what the members of their false church might think about them leaving, but Jesus Christ  warns and commands: Luk 12:5 - But I will forewarn you whom ye shall fear: Fear him, which after he hath killed hath power to cast into hell; yea, I say unto you, Fear him.

In God’s court of perfect justice, He is the judge, jury and executioner. All who believe in His Son and sole sinless Saviour Jesus Christ, God declares without exception eternally not guilty of sin. All, without exception, who unrepentantly reject the only source of salvation and eternal life, Jesus Christ the Son of God, are judged by God as eternally guilty of sin, and the wrath of God abides on them forever.

The spiritually dead in hell:

In Jesus Christ’s own words: Mar 9:48 - Where their worm dieth not, and the fire is not quenched.

Luk 3:17 - Whose fan is in his hand, and he will throughly purge his floor, and will gather the wheat into his garner; but the chaff he will burn with fire unquenchable.

SIN AND THE SECULAR WORLD

(An autopsy of the spirit of mankind)

Brothers and sisters, anybody UNREPENTANTLY knowingly, willingly ascribing the works of the Holy Spirit to the devil, the works of the law; men; or through denominational, organizational or institutional doctrines, etc. have blasphemed the Holy Spirit, and doomed themselves to be excluded from God’s kingdom forever.

Brothers and sisters when anybody tells anyone that in order to be saved and get into heaven, they have to become members of a certain church, denomination or anything else, besides Christ alone,  that is the devil talking and he is a liar. There is a reason fake churches need “revivals”, “holy convocations”, “solemn assemblies”, "AWAKENINGS" and many other concoctions in vain attempts to breathe life into their spiritually dead made up so called religion-AND NONE OF IT WORKS. There is no eternal life apart from Jesus Christ.

There is only one true and only Saviour Jesus Christ who alone is appointed by God the Father to offer salvation to all who believe. Anything in addition to the finished work of Jesus Christ to save people is HERESY. Let us call it what it is. Brothers and sisters say it with me IT IS HERESY.

Saints (G40 hagios), what shall those who have blasphemed the Holy Spirit ignorantly do to be saved?

Repent of your sins believe and trust in the Lord Jesus Christ ALONE for your salvation and receive His pardon and forgiveness of all your sins.

Brothers and sisters, the Bible tells us all we must know about the works of the Holy Spirit. We understand He absolutely backs up the complete inerrant truth of scripture, and those who deny His truth are blaspheming by denying Him and His work.

The unpardonable sin of blasphemy against the Holy Spirit can be summed up in this way: Heb 10:29 - Of how much sorer punishment, suppose ye, shall he be thought worthy, who hath trodden under foot the Son of God, and hath counted the blood of the covenant, wherewith he was sanctified, an unholy thing, and hath done despite unto the Spirit of grace?

Jesus Christ states that those who are against Him, are about the business of persistently, unrepentantly fueling various lies, schemes and slanders against the truth of the Holy Spirit, trying to separate people from God, getting in between people seeking God to hinder them from being saved, and trying to make merchandise of them. So we can clearly see that there is nothing passive about evil people.

A Tree Recognized by its Fruit: Mat 7:18 - A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit.

Thanks for fellowshipping with me across these pages, brethren. I pray that our great God our Father, the High and Mighty One, the Dread Awesome God of invincible absolute power, and complete eternal Sovereign Authority, will keep you, me and all of us together in continuing to love Him, one another and all men in the everlasting truth and faithfulness of the gospel of His Son our only Saviour and Lord, Jesus Christ our Eternal High Priest, Mediator, Redeemer, Deliverer, Lamb of God, Prince of Peace, Author of our salvation and great Shepherd of the flock of God. And this He will do by His everlasting power.

SIN AND THE SECULAR WORLD

(An autopsy of the spirit of mankind)

Brothers and sisters it cannot be said often enough that every Christian is in agreement with God desiring that none should perish but should come to the Lord and be saved. That being said we can never neglect the whole truth of the gospel message of our Lord Jesus Christ that there are those who knowingly, fully and willfully not only do not want to be saved, but love evil and hate the light. Furthermore, God absolutely declares that they are His enemies, and the enemies of His people.

Jesus Christ is called the Anointed One because: Act 10:38 - How God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Ghost and with power: who went about doing good, and healing all that were oppressed of the devil; for God was with him.

Jesus Christ absolutely defines blasphemy against the Holy Spirit, for all time:

The Bible is clear, all the works that Jesus Christ did in His earthly ministry was through the power of the Holy Spirit also known as the Holy Ghost. The Holy Ghost is not a thing, force, or wind, but the third Person of the Trinity, God the Holy Ghost.

All through faith in Jesus Christ also receive from God through faith in His Son, an anointing and indwelling of the Holy Spirit, the power of God to carry out the gospel message and do all of God’s work and will upon the earth.

Jo 14: 16And I will pray the Father, and he shall give you another Comforter, that he may abide with you for ever; 17Even the Spirit of truth; whom the world cannot receive, because it seeth him not, neither knoweth him: but ye know him; for he dwelleth with you, and shall be in you.

Act 1:8 - But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judaea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth.

Mt/ 12:22Then was brought unto him one possessed with a devil, blind, and dumb: and he healed him, insomuch that the blind and dumb both spake and saw. 23And all the people were amazed, and said, Is not this the son of David? 24But when the Pharisees heard it, they said, This fellow doth not cast out devils, but by Beelzebub the prince of the devils.

25And Jesus knew their thoughts, and said unto them, Every kingdom divided against itself is brought to desolation; and every city or house divided against itself shall not stand: 26And if Satan cast out Satan, he is divided against himself; how shall then his kingdom stand? 27And if I by Beelzebub cast out devils, by whom do your children cast them out? therefore they shall be your judges. 28But if I cast out devils by the Spirit of God, then the kingdom of God is come unto you. 29Or else how can one enter into a strong man's house, and spoil his goods, except he first bind the strong man? and then he will spoil his house.

30He that is not with me is against me; and he that gathereth not with me scattereth abroad.

The Unpardonable Sin

(Mark 3:28-30)

31Wherefore I say unto you, All manner of sin and blasphemy shall be forgiven unto men: but the blasphemy against the Holy Ghost shall not be forgiven unto men. 32And whosoever speaketh a word against the Son of man, it shall be forgiven him: but whosoever speaketh against the Holy Ghost, it shall not be forgiven him, neither in this world, neither in the world to come

Holy people, take heart. The Holy Spirit along with God our Father and God Jesus Christ our Saviour have taken up permanent residence in our spirits. He will help us to get His work done by His power.

SIN AND THE SECULAR WORLD

( An autopsy of the spirit of mankind)

Brothers and sisters, God has set His church, which is His people to be salt and light in the world, the same as He set Noah, then all the prophets, apostles , the people of God continuing. That means me and you all of us are to at every opportunity be prepared to present the gospel message to those God puts in our path, and even go and seek those not in our path. 

Praise God for all that do this very thing, by the power of God. Unfortunately, most unbelievers will not come to the local church to hear the gospel message, although some do. I pray we will not miss the opportunity to witness inside of the fourwalled local church too.

Holy people, God in His patience is waiting for the fullness of the gentiles and then remnant Jews to be brought in.  God is bringing people into the Ark of Salvation through preaching the gospel of Jesus Christ, while unbelieving mankind is still eating, drinking, and rejecting the blessed opportunity to escape the wrath of God to come upon all the ungodly. This autopsy is not about the godly, but the ungodly unbelieving mankind that totally rejects God, hates Him, His people and all that He stands for. So, what about the devil in all this? We will get to him, but the devil has no power to send anybody to hell, people can do that all by themselves. It gives God no pleasure to see the death of the wicked. However, the unrepentant wicked shall surely die and be turned into hell to await the final judgement of God in the Lake of fire.

Brothers and sisters some will say surely Paul the apostle committed the unpardonable sin because he wrote himself that he used to be a blasphemer: 1Ti 1:13 - Who was before a blasphemer, and a persecutor, and injurious: but I obtained mercy, because I did it ignorantly in unbelief. 

Paul did not commit the unpardonable sin, because although he used to be a blasphemer, it was in ignorance. When Paul heard and learned the truth of the gospel of Jesus Christ, he repented, became an apostle and never turned back from worshipping and following Jesus Christ.

This example of Paul, makes it abundantly clear that Lord Jesus Christ is not saying that people out of ignorance are blaspheming the Holy Spirit. The difference here is when ignorant  persons hear the truth of the gospel, they turn to God in repentance and believe on the name of Jesus Christ. But then there are those who know the truth of the gospel message which God sent down from heaven with the power of the Holy Spirit, who willfully, knowing the truth reject it and despitefully call it a lie. Some do it blatantly and publicly, some do it with subtlety. Either way they commit blasphemy against the Holy Spirit.

This is the back story or background of the physically alive, but spiritually dead on earth, and why when they die physically, they remain dead spiritually, turned into hell, to await the final judgement of God in the lake of eternal fire.

It is essential to understand this brothers and sisters, exactly what this means in the secular world, as we await the return of our great Saviour and Lord Jesus Christ. It is a great mistake to dismiss such persons and presume they are harmless to God and His people.

Gen 19:14 And Lot went out, and spake unto his sons in law, which married his daughters, and said, Up, get you out of this place; for the LORD will destroy this city. But he seemed as one that mocked unto his sons in law.

Jde 1:18 How that they told you there should be mockers in the last time, who should walk after their own ungodly lusts.

(Surely, holy people, we know that no autopsy can ever be done on those who have eternal life) Jhn 10:28 And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand.

Praise God for the multitudes of believers who worship Jesus in spirit and truth. No autopsy can ever be done on them for they will never die. The unbelieving spirit of mankind, however, has changed little.

In the time of Noah, they were eating and drinking. Noah too also ate and drank. They were marrying and giving in marriage. Noah got married too and gave his sons in marriage. But all the while, brother Noah never lost track of what God wanted him to do and kept on building the ark. But unbelieving mankind kept on eating, drinking, marrying, giving in marriage, building up and tearing down. They discounted the absolute preaching of Noah, and vexed his spirit with their distain. Noah tried and tried as he was building the ark to convince unbelieving mankind to turn to God and be saved. But you know, saints (G40 hagios), unbelieving mankind went on living just as though there was no God and no warning from God to turn to Him and live, until the very day of the flood from God came and killed them all.

I know, brethren, some say in great error that God is too “nice” to hurt people. But note what the eternal truth of the Bible says happened to the unbelieving folks who stayed behind: Gen 7:21 - And all flesh died that moved upon the earth, both of fowl, and of cattle, and of beast, and of every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth, and every man:

Note how the Bible lists man at the end of aforementioned verse. God drowned unbelieving mankind along with the creeping etc. things.

Brothers and sisters, without question there are those who cavalierly discount the absoluteness of the Bible and its eternal truth.  When anyone speaks, and teaches lies against the Holy Spirit, there is no forgiveness from God in this life or the next.

UNPARDONABLE SIN. The unpardonable sin, dearly beloveds, has nothing to do with the inborn Adamic sin nature. Mat 12:31 - Wherefore I say unto you, All manner of sin and blasphemy shall be forgiven unto men: but the blasphemy against the Holy Ghost shall not be forgiven unto men.

 Mat 12:32 - And whosoever speaketh a word against the Son of man, it shall be forgiven him: but whosoever speaketh against the Holy Ghost, it shall not be forgiven him, neither in this world, neither in the world to come.

Luk 12:10 - And whosoever shall speak a word against the Son of man, it shall be forgiven him: but unto him that blasphemeth against the Holy Ghost it shall not be forgiven.

It is a great unforgiveable evil to slander, mock, and lie on the Holy Spirit. Those who do so  show they hate God, and when they die physically, assures their doom and guarantees their place in hell.

SIN AND THE SECULAR WORLD

(An autopsy of the spirit of mankind)

Although a person cannot be convicted twice for the same crime in mankind’s criminal law. Nevertheless, many accusers can come forward and file charges against that person in mankind’s civil law due to the same or some aspect of the crime they were found not guilty of in criminal law.

Praise God, holy people, for it is the justice system of God that relentlessly pursues, and teaches mankind through allowing the penalties for sin to show that all mankind are sinners. Furthermore, God relentlessly shovels in the face of mankind the reality of the horrific epic pandemic of raging sins great and small, on the earth. God makes it absolutely possible for all mankind to see sin with a capital S.

Brothers and sisters, most of us know this, however there are some who are quite shocked to know that in the absolute, inerrant and perfect justice system of God, the sinner whom God sets free and proclaims not guilty will never again be retried by God in any manner whatsoever.

What does this mean then, dearly beloveds? This means God has made provision for all mankind through the sole true reformation of Jesus Christ, so that people no longer die for the sin of Adam, but for their own sin. Can we name this specific sin of mankind that has absolutely nothing to do with the inherited Adamic sin nature?

Jhn 3:17 - For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. 

Luk 14:23 - And the lord said unto the servant, Go out into the highways and hedges, and compel them to come in, that my house may be filled. Praise God, holy people, for the continual flow of believers into the kingdom of heaven through the gospel of Jesus Christ.

 The Great Day of the Lord

Mal 4:1For, behold, the day cometh, that shall burn as an oven; and all the proud, yea, and all that do wickedly, shall be stubble: and the day that cometh shall burn them up, saith the LORD of hosts, that it shall leave them neither root nor branch.

2Pe 3:10 - But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up.

 Rev 20:15 - And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire.

Whoa!!! Brothers and sisters, more than a few might argue how unfair it is that God would send anybody to eternal death in the lake of fire, seeing all mankind inherited their sin nature through the rebellion of Adam. Furthermore, others might argue that nobody living after Adam was alive then and had no participation in the sin of Adam. How can God blame people for Adam’s sin? Didn’t God tell us that Adam is the guilty one? Didn’t God tell us it was that Adam who brought sin and death to everybody? Rom 5:12 - Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned:

Dearly beloveds, if God is a God of justice, and He absolutely is, some might say in error that there can be no justification for ever sending anybody to eternal death in the lake of fire because of having an inherited sin nature.

Holy people, God knows all of this better than anyone could ever grasp it, as we shall surely see.

Some might say just a minute here sister, why are you leaving the devil out of this?

It is common, dearly beloveds, for mankind on earth to mistakenly think that the whole of their lives revolves solely around work, marriage if one desires, and to have fun, accumulate things/ money, then retire and enjoy the rest of their lives. It is true God does bless people to have and do these things. Nevertheless, we are never to make idols of them or anything else.

1Ti 6:7 - For we brought nothing into this world, and it is certain we can carry nothing out.

Brothers and sisters, mankind has a dangerous biblical disconnect.

For this reason, God leaves those who have been saved and forgiven of their sins through faith in the Saviour Jesus Christ on earth, to tell the world of God’s ultimate message that eternal spiritual death is preventable.

This is that while the door is still open, God’s plan is for all of mankind to be saved and receive the forgiveness of all their sins, and eternal life with Him, through faith in His Son and sole Saviour Jesus Christ. Mar 16:15 - And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature.
