STUDIES
IN HEBREWS CHAPTER
13 VS 15-16 MORE PEOPLE WILL BELIEVE IN JESUS CHRIST AND GO TO HEAVEN THAN THOSE WHO WILL REJECT HIM AND GO INTO THE LAKE OF FIRE
Mat 7:13Enter
ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the
gate, and broad is the way, that
leadeth to destruction, and many there
be which go in thereat:
Mat 7:14Because strait is the
gate, and narrow is the
way, which leadeth unto life, and few there
be that find it.
Some
interpret the above verses to mean in error that Jesus teaches that most people
will go into the lake of fire and not be saved. However, the scriptures make it
clear that a false doctrine has been made out of these few verses.
Jesus
was addressing unbelieving Jews of the flesh, who boasted of being righteous
based merely on human genetics, along with those who claimed to be righteous on
the basis of said faith with no evidence of love and obedience towards God. See
Mat 8.
It
is blasphemous to willfully teach that Lord Jesus came to die on the cross, to
leave most people lost and condemned to the lake of fire. The children of the
devil sneak in amongst the saints in vain to pervert God’s word and turn the
good news into bad news that salvation is unachievable for most persons so most
will die in the lake of fire: Luk 6:45.
However, we know the eternal absolute truth is
that salvation is the free gift of God to all that believe in His Son the only
Saviour Jesus Christ: Salvation is forever un-earnable; un-buyable;
un-repayable; un-returnable; un-changeable-irreversible.
The
everlasting absolute truth, therefore, is that there will be too many people to
count that will believe and enter into heaven. See and believe the truth of the
inerrant absolute authority of scripture in the verses below, and many more
than I can put here.
Mat 8:11And I
say unto you, That many shall come from the
east and west, and shall sit
down with Abraham, and Isaac, and Jacob, in the
kingdom of heaven.
Rev 7:9
After this
I
beheld, and, lo, a
great multitude, which no man could number, of all nations, and kindreds, and people, and tongues, stood before the
throne, and before the Lamb, clothed with
white robes, and palms in their hands;
God
commands us to test all teachings by scripture. It cannot be said often enough
that scripture interprets/teaches scripture, proves, authenticates, and backs
up scripture within the context of the whole of scripture from beginning to end
without error AND WITHOUT ANY CONTRADICTIONS WHATSOEVER.
Those
who unrepentantly reject the absolute truth and authority of the Bible are the
enemies of God, wicked, evil, children of the devil, whom God will destroy
along with the devil their father in the eternal lake of burning fire.
Brothers
and sisters, the holy family of God our Father, and priests under Lord Jesus
Christ our Great High Priest, Saviour/Mediator, Author of the everlasting New
Covenant, let us continually pour out fervent love, blessings and thank
offerings to Him always, for He is worthy.
Dearly
beloveds, I love you and thank our God and Father for you all. You are on my
heart and often in my prayers, that whether you be in peace, or troubled, that God
our Father would keep your faith strong and yielding only to the will of our
Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, that you will be able to pass all your tests and
trials to glorify Him out of love and trust in Him.
I
covet your prayers and am thankful for your fellowship with me in this study,
now in the final chapter verse by verse. Certainly, we can study God’s word
over and over as we should and as He commands. God commands us to study the
Word so that we can achieve the UNITY in the whole body that can only be
accomplished from unity in the Bible.
Let
us say repeatedly, brothers and sisters, that God commands us all to share the
gospel in the world, so that all who hear and believe will be saved. Let us share the word with other
believers too for there are always some new, and some saved many years even in
the pulpit, who may not know it because they never heard it or might have a
faulty understanding of it.
We
know, brethren, God doesn’t get angry with people because they do not know or
have a faulty understanding of scripture and we should not be angry either, but
gracious in sharing the good news with them. We don’t automatically know the
scriptures it is to be taught as God commands.
We
don’t have to hunt for the ignorant, it is evident by what they say
consistently in error, that they do not know the scriptures or have faulty
understanding of the Christian doctrine. The righteous will gladly receive the
truth, but the wicked never will.
The
apostles and prophets were given the word by revelation of God in Christ to
teach and spread the gospel; the rest of the people would know it through their
teaching, as God commanded. Then the learned would continue to study, live it,
witness, and also aid other believers to know it too. The whole church, not
just the pastors and teachers are commanded by God to share the gospel in this
way.
God
our Father, dearly beloveds, takes us in His bosom to the Lord’s table, where
the Holy Ghost has laid out a spiritual feast for us in the Word, our life and
spiritual food, whom God our Father glorifies and exalts above every name in
heaven and in earth forever:
Phl
2:10That at the name of Jesus every knee should
bow, of things in heaven, and things in
earth, and things under the earth;
Holy
brethren, we cannot fail to appreciate how Paul, the apostle keeps our hearts
and minds focused like a laser beam, not on himself, but on the absolute truth that God our Father
has set His Son Jesus Christ as the Head of the church and the Eternal Standard for righteousness/faith, and
obedience through the Son’s everlasting complete perfect atonement.
Heb
13:15 - By him therefore let
us offer the sacrifice of praise to God continually, that
is, the fruit of our lips giving
thanks to his name.
Under
the Law, brothers and sisters, we know that only the priests-males only, could enter
the Levitical tabernacle to do service unto God, while only the High Priest
could enter the holy of holies, but once a year.
The
common people remained outside as God would kill any non-Levite who tried to
enter to do service. All the Levitical priest sacrifices was about cleansing
their own sins and helping sinners each time, and as many times they sinned, often
for the same sins, to avoid punishment and curses and to be restored back to
God’s favor-until the next sin.
The
duties of the Levitical High Priests and the priests under him were exacting,
rigorous, had to be
perfect, no
mistakes allowed, or adlibbing-God would kill any priest, including the High
Priest who did not carry out their duty perfectly. Imagine the terror
that the Levitical priesthood had in serving God in the earthly tabernacle: Lev
10:1-2; Lev
10:9; Num
4:15; Exo
28:35.
However,
thanks and praises to God, for in the New Covenant of Jesus Christ, our sinless
Messiah took away our sins through faith in Him. God the Father, God the Son
Jesus Christ, with God the Holy Ghost enters into every and all believers making
them His living tabernacle. He aids them to do His service and dwells forever
in them through the perfect
atonement of His Son Jesus Christ.
Under
the New Covenant, All believers have equal access to God through the Son. The sacrifices
offered by every believer, male and female priests under the New Covenant High
Priest Jesus Christ are
not to get any sins forgiven, nor to restore fellowship, but are offerings of love, peace, and
thanks to Him in eternal devotion and gratitude for the forgiveness of all sins
forever, none of which are remembered by God on account of the perfect atoning work of the Son
of God, who has made us all new creatures in Him, with eternal life and
the hope of His kingdom to come.
Therefore,
believers under the New Covenant, enter into God’s presence with rejoicing and boldness,
without any fear of being destroyed, seeing that they are forever delivered from the wrath
of God, whom they reverence with holy fear in love, trust and obedience,
because He has perfectly finished our work through God the Son Jesus Christ: 1Th 1:10.
Where
is the New Covenant tabernacle? Perhaps
the hardest thing for some to grasp is that although believers meet locally in
buildings for communal worship/fellowship and services particular to the body
of Christ it’s just a building made with the hands of men. God will not return
to take any building to heaven, only His people. It is the people of God alone
whom He has made holy and in whom He dwells forever:
1Co
3:16
Know ye not that ye
are the temple of God, and that the
Spirit of God dwelleth in you?
2Co
6:16
And what agreement hath
the temple of God with idols? for ye are the
temple of the living God; as God hath
said, I will dwell in them, and walk in them;
and I will be their God, and they shall
be my people.
1Pe
2:5
Ye also, as lively stones, are
built up a spiritual house, an
holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices, acceptable to
God by Jesus Christ.
There
are those who in error believe that Christians after salvation are to identify
themselves as “saved sinners”, misinterpreting: 1Ti 1:15
This is a
faithful saying, and worthy of
all acceptation, that Christ Jesus came into the
world to save sinners; of whom I am chief.
Rightly
interpreted within the context of scripture Paul declares that Jesus saved
someone like Him who had been a terrible destructive sinner, showing that
salvation is for everyone who believes in Jesus, regardless of how big or
terrible a sinner they might be. This is backed up throughout the scriptures: Isa 1:18; Psa 103:12;
Isa 43:25;
Jer 31:34;Jhn 6:37;
Heb
8:12.
Jhn 3:16
For God so loved the
world, that he gave his only
begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
1Ti 2:4
Who will have all men to be
saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the
truth.
Scriptures
absolutely interprets/teaches/proves/validates scriptures within the whole context of
scripture Old and New Testaments without error nor contradiction whatsoever of
any kind.
Of
course, there are those ignorant persons who in error misinterpret scripture to
claim only the elect can be saved, and everyone else will be lost. The aforementioned
verses are sufficient to show the truth that salvation is not given by God arbitrarily
to some and not to others. The absolute truth forever is that it is given
freely to all that believe on Jesus Christ. All who believe God’s record of His
Son Jesus Christ are received as His elect.
Through
Lord Jesus Christ every believer belongs to God and one another. Our worship of
Him is not limited to the local church or any specific location, for God is in
us and with us everywhere we go. We can choose to live lives of prayer and
service wherever we go: Heb 10:25
Not forsaking the assembling of
ourselves together, as the manner of
some is; but exhorting one another: and so
much the more, as ye see the day approaching.
Heb
13:16 - But to do
good and to communicate forget not: for with
such sacrifices God is well pleased.
We
know, saints (G40 hagios) there is no justification for neglecting to help
others as we are able. None of us can justify ourselves before God by living
selfishly looking out only for ourselves, or narrowly associating only with our
own little group that thinks or looks just like us in some way.
There is no such model for the church
in all of the Bible, for God is love-amply demonstrated
in His people throughout the scripture in their sharing and loving one another and
all men spiritually and practically.
In
an earlier verse Paul had encouraged these Hebrew believers not to forget to
entertain strangers:
Here,
Paul encourages these Hebrew believers, and us also that our loving God expects
us to show the evidence of
our love in caring
for and helping those in need of practical help, especially the household of
faith as we are able: Gal
6:10
As we
have therefore opportunity, let us
do good unto all men, especially unto them
who are of the household of faith. James says that
comforting talk to the needy is worthless without also providing practical help
to those in need: Jas 2:16.
God
teaches us how He wants us to please Him. We know how, there is no need for us to reinvent the wheel,
because Christ is our supreme example of doing good, being righteous. We also
have the record of those who followed after His example faithfully and we can
do the same.
Paul’s
exhortation “to forget not” reminds us that faith is to not only be believed in
but also to be lived out in good works demonstrating our love for God, one
another and all men through our aiding those in need as we are able. We know we
truly please God our Father when we show our love by our works out of love and
trust in Him.
Love and truth forever,

STUDIES
IN HEBREWS
CHAPTER
13 VS 13-14
MORE PEOPLE WILL BELIEVE IN JESUS CHRIST AND GO TO HEAVEN THAN THOSE WHO WILL REJECT HIM AND GO INTO THE LAKE OF FIRE
Mat 7:13Enter
ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the
gate, and broad is the way, that
leadeth to destruction, and many there
be which go in thereat:
Mat 7:14Because strait is the
gate, and narrow is the
way, which leadeth unto life, and few there
be that find it.
Some
interpret the above verses to mean in error that Jesus teaches that most people
will go into the lake of fire and not be saved. However, the scriptures make it
clear that a false doctrine has been made out of these few verses.
Jesus
was addressing unbelieving Jews of the flesh, who boasted of being righteous based
merely on human genetics, along with those who claimed to be righteous on the
basis of said faith with no evidence of love and obedience towards God. See Mat 8.
It
is blasphemous to willfully teach that Lord Jesus came to die on the cross, to
leave most people lost and condemned to the lake of fire. The children of the
devil sneak in amongst the saints in vain to pervert God’s word and turn the
good news into bad news that salvation is unachievable for most persons so most
will die in the lake of fire: Luk 6:45.
However, we know the eternal absolute truth is that salvation is the free gift of
God to all that believe in His Son the only Saviour Jesus Christ: Salvation is
forever un-earnable; un-buyable; un-repayable; un-returnable; un-changeable-irreversible.
The
everlasting absolute truth therefore, is that there will be too many people to
count that will believe and enter into heaven. See and believe the truth of the inerrant absolute
authority of scripture in the verses below, and many more than I can put
here.
Mat 8:11And I
say unto you, That many shall come from the
east and west, and shall sit
down with Abraham, and Isaac, and Jacob, in the kingdom of
heaven.
Rev 7:9
After this
I
beheld, and, lo, a
great multitude, which no man could number, of all nations, and kindreds, and people, and tongues, stood before the
throne, and before the Lamb, clothed with white robes, and palms in their hands;
God
commands us to test all teachings by scripture. It cannot be said often enough
that scripture interprets scripture, proves, authenticates, and backs up
scripture within the context of the whole of scripture from beginning to end WITHOUT ERROR AND WITHOUT CONTRADICTIONS IN ANY WAY OR MANNER WHATSOEVER.
Those
who unrepentantly reject the ABSOLUTE TRUTH AND AUTHORITY of the Bible are the
enemies of God, wicked, evil, children of the devil, whom God will destroy
along with the devil their father in the eternal lake of burning fire.
Brothers
and sisters, let us give the sweet sacrifices of our love, praises, thanks, and
blessings to God our Father, who is our wisdom, peace, and blessings in Him
forever. Much love to you, dearly beloveds, and joy in God our Saviour Jesus
Christ and the hope of God our Holy Spirit.
Although
many saints of every nation (G40hagios) continue to go through suffering much
trials and tribulations on this present evil earth, Jesus our Lord comforts us
knowing that these present sufferings are but light afflictions not worthy to
be compared to the glory that shall be revealed in us forever in His kingdom: Rom 8:17-18; 1Co 12:26.
Phl 1:28
And in nothing terrified by your
adversaries: which is to
them an evident token of perdition, but to you of
salvation, and that of God.
1Th 3:4
For verily, when we
were with you, we told you before that we should suffer tribulation; even as it
came to pass, and ye know. 5 Which is a manifest token of
the righteous judgment of God, that ye may be counted
worthy of the kingdom of
God, for which ye also suffer:
Brothers
and sisters, we understand that God has a purpose in allowing us to suffer. We
have no need to be afraid, but to rejoice that we are found worthy by God to
suffer even as His Son Jesus Christ suffered for us:
Phl 1:29For unto
you it is given in the behalf of
Christ, not only to
believe on him, but also to suffer for his
sake;
2Th 1:7And to
you who are
troubled rest with us, when the
Lord Jesus shall be revealed from heaven with his mighty angels,
2Th 1:8In flaming fire taking vengeance on them
that know not God, and that obey not the
gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ:
Brothers
and sisters, let us resist the temptation to cherry pick the gospel to only
teach what is comfortable. The truth is that even in the parts of the gospel
that appear difficult to hear, the good news continues eternally in this
absolute truth, speak it with me holy brethren: GOD ALWAYS WINS FOR HE IS FOREVER ABSOLUTELY ALL
POWERFUL, UNCONQUERABLE; INVINCIBLE; NONE CAN DEFEAT HIM NONE CAN HINDER HIS UNSTOPPABLE
WILL AND ALL OF HIS DETERMINED PURPOSES SHALL COME TO PASS.
Thanks, brothers and sisters, for your continued patience in this study with me. We know that patience is necessary and has its own work. Although many know and
understand the New Covenant of Jesus Christ, let us keep in mind that God commands us all to continue
to study/live it and share it in the world and with those who do not know it or have a faulty
understanding of it.
THERE
IS NO UNITY OUTSIDE OF THE WHOLE INERRANT TRUTH OF THE BIBLE.
We
rest in complete assurance in the testimony of God about His Son Jesus Christ.
We cannot fail to note Paul the apostle’s relentless, meticulous drilling,
hammering, and nailing, the proof of the love and truth of the finished work of Christ into
our spirits, hearts and minds. This is how Paul taught, and we should take care
and patience to follow His example, that we too will glorify God and make Him
fully known by His power and according to His Sovereign will.
God
has given us our daily Bread, His Son Jesus Christ, our spiritual nurturer and nourishment,
with the Holy Ghost ever leading and teaching us the ABSOLUTE TRUTH in what great
salvation has been wrought through the atonement of the Son of God, by the will
of the Father.
Brothers
and sisters, we know that at the conclusion of the yearly Levitical atonement
the decomposing bodies and blood of the sacrificed animals were removed out of
the camp while the nation remained within knowing this same ritual would be
repeated yearly as God commanded.
However,
we find believers under
grace are all commanded by God to go to Jesus outside the camp, whose atoning
body and blood retains the eternal power to wash away all sins from them that
believe and obey Him forever and ever.
Again,
God commands us to go out to His Son Jesus Christ understanding that His
atonement was neither substitutionary, nor an exchange. It is true Lord Jesus
died for our sins, but, again, holy brethren, never as a substitute or an
exchange. The Bible makes it clear teaching Christ’s atoning sacrifice, ransomed,
bought, purchased, us from God in full to take our sins away by His atoning
body and blood: 1Co
7:23; 1Co
7:23; Act
20:28; Hos
13:14; Mat
20:28.
We
have no need nor command from God to know Greek or Aramaic because from
beginning to end of the inerrant Bible and even in the world, the words ransom,
purchase, bought is defined as something that is paid for, and the purchaser
becomes the owner of that thing(s) outright. WE ARE NOT OUR OWN BUT OWNED/PURCHASED
TO GOD BY LORD JESUS CHRIST: 1Co 6:19-20. Therefore, holy brethren, we understand comprehensively that Nobody shall advance nor enter the kingdom of God by mere human works/efforts, attained degrees or advanced degrees nor merely human works of any kind, nor through any man made doctrines of error.
In all of scripture there is not one
word that describes the atoning body and blood of Lord Jesus Christ as ONLY OR
MERELY an exchange or substitution. Seeing the atonement in
error as a substitution or exchange totally minimalizes the magnitude of Christ’s great eternal atoning work and power.
Heb
13:13 - Let us go
forth therefore unto him without the
camp, bearing his reproach.
Holy
people, in every way of love and truth we go to Jesus clothed in only what He
has given us. Nothing-no works of our own has any value in His Kingdom. Nothing
from the camp under the Law is permitted by God to go into the New Covenant of
Jesus Christ, although we retain knowledge of it for our learning.
We
go to Jesus bearing His reproach knowing that: Rom 15:3 - For even Christ pleased not himself; but, as it
is written, The reproaches of them that
reproached thee fell on me.
We
go to Jesus, OUTSIDE THE
CAMP who never sinned, but paid in full- took away our punishment shame,
guilt, all sins forever by washing us in His eternal sinless, incorruptible
blood. We gladly go to Jesus bearing His reproach armed with His absolùte eternal love and truth knowing that we go into a world that hates Him and hates and persecutes us because we belong to Him. Even so we gladly rejoice for the great blessing to suffer as He suffered for us and to partner with God in bringing the light of His salvation through the only Saviour Jesus Christ into a lost and dying world, so that all who believe in Him will be saved forever. We go to Jesus outside the camp, with hearts overflowing with love and gratitude to Him, who first loved us and called us out of darkness forever into His marvelous unquenchable light.
Brothers
and sisters, understand this, please understand this. We go to Jesus rooted in
Him the TRUE VINE BY THE WILL AND COMMAND OF GOD THE FATHER: Jhn 15:5. WITHOUT FAITH IN JESUS CHRIST ALONE, ME, YOU, US, CAN DO NOTHING TO ENTER HEAVEN.
Again
God commands all peoples to come to Jesus on the basis of faith in Him not by
our works. God is not politely requesting us to maybe consider going to Jesus
Christ His Son Author of the New Covenant, or maybe not now or ever. GOD HAS NO FRENEMIES: Mat 12:30
He
that is not with me is against me; and he
that gathereth not with me scattereth abroad.
Heb
13:14 - For here have
we no continuing city, but we seek one to come.
The
Bible, holy brethren, tells us clearly, plainly that God is patient and long suffering desiring that ALL men should be saved; yet God has set a day to destroy the earth plus its
works including the wicked:
KJ21But
the Day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night, in 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. The Bibles teaches that Nobody, no created being in heaven nor on earth knows when this day will come, they are lying against the truth of the Bible if they claim they do. But the Bible makes it clear what we are all to be doing while we await the return of our Lord Jesus Christ. Jesus was never and is not a created being He always exists with God the Father as God the Son. Jesus declared in His earthly ministry that only the Father knew when the end would come: Mt 24: 36-41. Jesus is EQUAL with God, however He restrained His right and power as God the Son in order to fulfill His ministry and atoning work on earth to bring forth salvation under the eternal New Covenant: Phil 2:6-7.
Christ risen from the dead forever having finished His work, sits in the full authority that He had prior to coming to earth being One with the Father as both God the Son and sinless Man He shares the same knowledge/power and authority of God, and receives equal worship with God. It's important to note that even on earth as a man Jesus never ceased to be God and never lost His right to be worshipped by the will and command of God the Father. Feel free holy brethren to study further the many instances where Jesus receives rightful EQUAL worship with the Father.
Think
about the sight, dearly beloveds, of God in action and power, having taken His
children to heaven, then returning to earth to destroy the wicked in the lake of fire, along with great mansions, nice houses, shanties, luxury apartment buildings, and slums, tents, the little red school houses, great majestic capitol buildings, along with gambling casinos and houses of ill
repute, great citadels of secular learning and religious schools, every city
great and small, every mountain, the ocean until the whole were utterly
destroyed as even all the stars of heaven, with the sun and moon.
We
know from God’s Word that He does not stop to save the records of those who had
perfect church attendance; made the dean’s lists or records of academic
achievements; nor records from the criminal courts of cases won or lost. God will burn up all of these too.
There
are no plan b’s, alternatives, or multiple choices; God commands all men to believe
and obey God the Son of God Jesus Christ, while one is alive, and the Door is
open.
Dearly
beloveds again, God has been explicit, He has set a termination date for this
present evil world: Mal 4:1
For,
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.
All
praise, thanks and blessings to our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ who gives the
free gift of salvation to all who believe in Him, not by works of righteousness
that we have done. let none delay going to Jesus, cleansed forever, dressed in His robes of righteousness, priests, under His High Priesthood, dearly loved children of every nation, and color, men and women.
There is room for all although not all have the same office, but ALL are EQUAL IN CHRIST. There is room for every believer, the blind, halt, disabled, and the fit and healthy. There is room for the rich, those with money, and those who have none, for the educated and those who are not, all are welcome to come to Jesus who indwells His people with God the Father and seals them with the Holy Ghost making all one in God. There is room for the little sinners, there is room for the big sinners and anything in between, for Jesus forgives, mine, your, ours all of our sins forever washed away, no longer remembered by God because of the precious sinless incorruptible blood of His Son Lord Jesus Christ, who freely paid to ransom us forever by His power. Love and truth forever, serola

The
everlasting truth is that there will be too many people to count that will
believe and enter into heaven. See and believe the truth of the verses below,
and many more than I can put here.
Mat
8:11And I say unto
you, That many shall
come from the east and west, and shall sit
down with Abraham, and Isaac, and Jacob, in the
kingdom of heaven.
Rev
7:9
After this
I
beheld, and, lo, a
great multitude, which no man could number, of all nations, and kindreds, and people, and tongues, stood before the
throne, and before the Lamb, clothed with
white robes, and palms in their hands;
God
commands us to test all teachings by scripture. It cannot be said often enough
that scripture interprets scripture, proves, authenticates, and backs up
scripture within the context of the whole of scripture from beginning to end
without error.
We,
dearly beloveds, sometimes make mistakes in interpreting scripture, certainly. However,
God is not angry at us for making a mistake. The righteous will gladly receive correction,
but the wicked apostates never will.
God’s
promise to Abraham: Gen
13:16
And
I will make thy
seed as the dust of the earth: so that if a
man can number the dust of the earth, then shall
thy seed also be numbered.
Gen
16:10And the angel of the
LORD said unto her, I will multiply thy seed exceedingly, that it shall not
be numbered for multitude.
Brothers and sisters, what a great
blessing we have from God our Father, who has given us everything we need in
His only begotten Son, Lord Jesus Christ. Our Eldest Brother, the firstborn of
the brethren, the firstborn of every creature, the firstborn from the dead, (Col
1:18); the Supreme example of a faithful Son
in His love and trust for God our Father. In everything and in every way, Jesus
chose to please Him. We too can emulate Him gladly in loving obedience to God
our Father through the indwelling Spirit: Jhn
8:29.
The proud and rebellious see obedience
to God as weakness. The self- enchanted seek only to please themselves because
they are lovers only of themselves and not God.
But we know, holy brethren, that all
who love God the Father seek to glorify Him who is forever worthy of our obedience
and praise. Through the love and obedience of One, we are made as one in God,
whether Jew, gentile, male or female, our sins forever exorcised circumcised in
the true circumcision of the heart, not of the flesh.
With joyful hearts, let us the holy
family of God our Father and Priests under our eternal High Priest Jesus Christ
pour out liberal offerings of the sweet elixir of our love, blessings, and thanks
to Him continually, for He is worthy: Col
2:10-15.
1Jo 4:18:There is no fear in love; but perfect love casteth out fear:
because fear hath torment.
He that feareth is not
made perfect in love.
Taking
a look back, again, at the Levitical priesthood, while some were faithful,
nevertheless by the time of the earthly ministry of Jesus Christ it was a
corrupted ministry. We know it was, because Lord Jesus revealed they had become
a den of thieves fleecing the sheep, no
longer feeding the sheep, even stealing the houses of poor widows: Mar
11:17; Mat
23:14.
Lord
Jesus, Himself being a Jew totally destroys salvation based on genetic i.e.
“Jewish roots" in His condemnation of unbelieving Jews that also wanted to
kill Him: Mat
3:9; Jhn
8:44. None of the apostles lived by the Law
or Jewish customs any longer after they received Christ: Gal
2:14.
Currently
there is no functioning Levitical High Priest or priesthood in existence today
in Israel or anywhere else in the world. When anyone comes to tempt believers
to find their “Jewish roots”, let them boldly always declare IN CHRIST THERE IS
NO DIFFERENCE.
Christ
has shredded any ideology or doctrine to the nth degree that mixes the
Levitical priesthood under the Law with His ministry of grace under His eternal
New Covenant. We therefore have zero
basis to ever seek to be made righteous through the Levitical Priesthood or the
law of Moses.
The
Bible gives the comprehensive understanding of the New Covenant from the
beginning through both the New Covenant and the Old Covenant without error.
There
is no salvation through genetics, or from being passed down through being a
descendant of a line of pastors, or
religious people, membership in institutions, organizations, denominations followers
of teachers of false
ideologies
based upon private interpretation of scripture. let us Boldy declare this everlasting truth of
God as He commands:
Act 4:12 Neither is
there salvation in any other: for there
is none other name under heaven given among men,
whereby we must be
saved.
There
is no salvation through academic performance, nor are there scholarships/internships
to heaven. People are free to attend any school that they choose, however, it is neither a command nor requirement of God for salvation, nor believers.
God
the Father has closed down the Law and the Levitical Priesthood for
righteousness, although the nation had been baptized unto Moses in the Red Sea,
sanctified by the sprinkling of animal blood and made the first church in the
wilderness:
Many
of us, brothers and sisters, know these things, but we must keep in mind that
there are always some new believers or some old who never heard or have a
faulty understanding of these things and therefore can greatly benefit from
hearing the eternal truth of the whole gospel message.
Blood
passed down through merely human genetics is mixed or diluted by being
comingled with many different combinations of different persons over time. Due
to this fragmentation/mixed genetic material degrades over time, it cannot be
used to trace one’s origins to the seminal ancestors, although it might
indicate certain groups or geographical ancestry.
NOT
SO WITH THE SINLESS INCORRUPTIBLE BLOOD OF CHRIST for it completely retains the
exact same original DNA from Jesus Christ eternally incorruptible, unchanging unmixed/undiluted,
impervious to time and the absolute sole source of eternal salvation and life: Act 13:35Wherefore he saith also in another psalm,
Thou shalt not suffer thine Holy
One to see corruption.
Act
13:36For David, after he had
served his own generation by the will of God, fell on
sleep, and was
laid unto his fathers, and saw corruption:
Act 13:37But he, whom God raised
again, saw no corruption.
We
love our dear believing Jewish brethren and the unsaved Jewish people as God has not cast- off unbelieving Israel; however, we understand comprehensively from the beginning of scripture
that Lord Jesus appears not as a Jew but as God the Son. Jesus came as a Jew to
earth to deliver the Jews under the Law and open up the door of salvation to
both Jew and gentile- all mankind out of every nation that would believe in
Him, as God intended from the beginning:
Gal
3:8.
Heb
13:12 - Wherefore Jesus also, that he
might sanctify the people with his
own blood, suffered without the gate.
God
the Son of God Jesus Christ sanctified-set apart the people outside the camp or
gate of the nation of Israel, signifying that His perfect sinless sacrifice of
His incorruptible blood met all of God’s requirement for the atonement-payment
for all sins- finished for all time the need to ever offer any further
sacrifices: Act 13:39
And by him all that
believe are justified from all things, from which ye
could not be justified by the law of Moses.
1Pe 1:23Being born
again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, by the word of
God, which liveth and abideth for ever.
Through
the complete washing of the sinless incorruptible blood of Jesus Christ all
sins of the believer past, present, and future are forgiven forever. By Jesus
Christ the believer, whether Jew or gentile, is delivered from the wrath of God, the penalty, power, guilt,
punishment of sin, the inborn sin nature, and death itself is abolished making
the believer an entirely new spiritual creature in Him: 2Ti
1:10; 2Co
5:17; Gal
6:15; Col
1:13.
Scripture clearly refutes John Mcauther's absolutely false teaching that Christ's blood rotted after it was shed on the cross. I do not know this man, but I pray for him and pray you will join me, that God would bring him to repent/accept the correction of the truth of the Bible, because we know that God will not negotiate nor compromise His eternal truth of the gospel. Please dear John, there is no shame, no condemnation in making a mistake in interpretation of scripture, but there is everlasting condemnation for anyone who willfully falsely claims that the sinless blood of Jesus Christ corrupted.
WHEN
OUR SAVIOUR AND LORD JESUS CHRIST DECLARED IT IS FINISHED-IT IS FINISHED
FOREVER.
Love
and truth forever, serola
