          Beloveds, we must clear up the lie that when the Lord told Joshua he would have good success through obeying the Law, that this was meant for Christians today. The Lord told this to Joshua that in obeying the Old Covenant of the Law God would give him success in conquering certain lands and taking these lands for the nation of Israel: Joshua 1: 5 There shall not any man be able to stand before thee all the days of thy life: as I was with Moses, so I will be with thee: I will not fail thee, nor forsake thee. 6 Be strong and of a good courage: for unto this people shalt thou divide for an inheritance the land, which I sware unto their fathers to give them.
          
          
          
          Also in keeping the Old Covenant of the Law, (which is all they had from God), he would not face the wrath of God and die as Aaron and Moses did for their disobedience to God in not keeping the Old Covenant of the Law: Num. 27: 12 And the LORD said unto Moses, Get thee up into this mount Abarim, and see the land which I have given unto the children of Israel. 13 And when thou hast seen it, thou also shalt be gathered unto thy people, as Aaron thy brother was gathered. 14 For ye rebelled against my commandment in the desert of Zin, in the strife of the congregation, to sanctify me at the water before their eyes: that is the water of Meribah in Kadesh in the wilderness of Zin.
          
          Moses never preached that the Old Covenant of the Law would make anyone permanently righteous in the sight of God. Here is the truth, preached by our Saviour Jesus Christ: Jhn 5:46 For had ye believed Moses, ye would have believed me: for he wrote of me.
          
           Luk 24:44 And he said unto them, These are the words which I spake unto you, while I was yet with you, that all things must be fulfilled, which were written in the law of Moses, and in the prophets, and in the psalms, concerning me.

          Gal 2:21 I do not frustrate the grace of God: for if righteousness come by the law, THEN CHRIST IS DEAD IN VAIN.
          
          See Galatians 3, which explains God’s purposes for the Law; and how Jesus Christ has delivered us from it for all time. Feel free to study on your own the numerous verses that fully declare that Jesus Christ is the eternal Saviour and final sole source of eternal salvation for all time for all who believe in Him. See John 14:6.

          

          Anyone willfully claiming salvation based on keeping the Old Covenant of the Law and/ or combining it with the New Covenant of Jesus Christ, or anything else is not considered a Christian according to the Bible.

          
          Gal 2:21 I do not frustrate the grace of God: for if righteousness come by the law, THEN CHRIST IS DEAD IN VAIN.

          
          Gal 3:10 For as many as are of the works of the law are under the CURSE: for it is written, CURSED is every one that continueth not in all things which are written in the book of the law to do them. 11 But that NO MAN is justified by the law in the sight of God, it is evident: for, The just shall live by faith.

          1Ti. 1:5 Now the end of the commandment is charity out of a pure heart, and of a good conscience, and of faith unfeigned:6 From which some having swerved have turned aside unto vain jangling;
          7 Desiring to be teachers of the law; understanding neither what they say, nor whereof they affirm.

          1Ti 1:9 Knowing this, that the law is not made for a righteous man, but for the lawless and disobedient, for the ungodly and for sinners, for unholy and profane, for murderers of fathers and murderers of mothers, for manslayers, 10 For whoremongers, for them that defile themselves with mankind, for menstealers, for liars, for perjured persons, and if there be any other thing that is contrary to sound doctrine; 11 According to the glorious gospel of the blessed God, which was committed to my trust.

          John 14:6 Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.

    STUDIES IN HEBREWS

    CHAPTER 12 VS 4-5

     

    Brothers and sisters, let us both Jew and gentile as the holy family of God our Father, made one through God the Son Jesus Christ give Him our love, blessings, thanks and praise offerings, for He is good and His mercy, love and truth, endures forever.

     

    One day I went bargain shopping, and while I was in the store, a young Asian woman desperately asked me if I was a Christian. I answered yes, and she fell into me so happy. She was from Japan and had come to see America on the fly having heard so much about it. My city was the last leg of her journey to see before going back home that day.

     

    She said she became desperately lonely for other Christians, and felt spiritually wizened, dried up like she was starving spiritually, but would be o.k. if she could just fellowship with one Christian. It was early afternoon when I met her at the store. We fellowshipped and prayed together until we were interrupted by the store’s closing bell that rang that evening, and she rushed off feeling refreshed to catch her flight back home.

     

    I didn’t get the chance to shop the bargains and the sale was done, because God had a better reason for me to be at that store that day. The young woman and I looked nothing like each other physically, but we are the true spiritual family of God our Father, His people of all nations in this present evil world and the future world of God, united as one in the body and blood of God His Son Jesus Christ.

     

    Although I have worshipped with Christians from many nations, I had never thought of Japan as having any established Christian churches, how wrong I was! We always need our God, and we need our brothers and sisters in Christ too as He has given us one to another. Our walk as Christians cannot be fully expressed apart from relationship with God and His people.


    Jesus Christ has built the only church that will last for all eternity: 1Co 3:16

    Know ye not that ye are the temple of God, and that the Spirit of God dwelleth in you?

    1Co 3:17If any man defile the temple of God, him shall God destroy; for the temple of God is holy, which temple ye are.

     

     

    CHRIST’S ONE SACRIFICE ONCE FOR ALL

    Heb 8:10

    For this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days, saith the Lord; I will put my laws into their mind, and write them in their hearts: and I will be to them a God, and they shall be to me a people:

    11 And they shall not teach every man his neighbour, and every man his brother, saying, Know the Lord: for all shall know me, from the least to the greatest.

    Heb 8:12 For I will be merciful to their unrighteousness, and their sins and

     their iniquities will I remember no more.

    The fact that all of our sins past, present, and future, are permanently forgiven, dearly beloveds, is something that some new believers and even some who have been saved a long time-even in the pulpit struggle with, not knowing God nor His power , but only rudimentary that somehow Jesus Saved them and in error believing that somehow and/or in some way it is up to them to keep themselves saved thereafter or be lost.

     

    Now, we know, brethren, all of us start out ignorant- spiritual babies and some among us remain babies, even some in the pulpit a long time. These spiritual babies left to their own, adlib their own ideas of the gospel. Some Christians get angry when they meet an ignorant believer, or ignorant pastor/teacher whom they discover didn’t understand the full message of salvation. Initially I got angry too. I repented when I read in the scriptures, which makes it obvious, that with the exception of the apostles/prophets, none of us automatically know the gospel, it has to be taught. Therefore, God assigned pastors, teachers, elders and the body general to teach believers. Those taught are to continue to study, live, obey the scriptures, share it with other believers even as they received and also in the world.

     

     

    I heard a pastor say that there are some churches where the New Covenant is neither taught nor mentioned. This is tantamount to sending children out into the wilderness without any means or knowledge of how to survive. In another sense it is like sending soldiers to war without training/combat skills, nor weapons to fight a well armed highly trained adversary.

     

    The scriptures and here Paul at the get go of the Book of Hebrews teaches us of the great unlimited power of Jesus Christ by which His atonement saves all who believe forever apart from any works of the flesh.

    THE POWER AND AUTHORITY OF JESUS CHRIST

     

    Heb 1:2 Hath in these last days spoken unto us by his Son, whom he hath appointed heir of all things, by whom also he made the worlds;

    Heb 1:3 Who being the brightness of his glory, and the express image of his person, and upholding all things by the word of his power, when he had by himself purged our sins, sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on high;c

    Rev 1:8 The power of Lord Jesus Christ is equal to that of God the Father, seeing that Jesus is God the Son of God. Every breath that we take, our allotted time of life to be on earth is through God the Son Jesus Christ, by the will of God the Father. Everything that exists has been created by the power of Jesus and maintained by Him whether flesh, spirit or the universe. Therefore, dearly beloveds, we understand His power, that it is unlimited, not bound by time, distance, nor space.

    The ignorant aka spiritual baby frets, not understanding forgiveness is permanent. They omit the New Covenant entirely to look past it for ways to get back in God’s favor each time he or she sins. Rather than turning away from any sin in repentance to do God’s will as evidence of their love and trust in Him the ignorant believers work is never done. Like the priests under the mosaic law their lives are fraught with fear as they work constantly to keep short accounts confessing sins so they will not lose their salvation and/or fellowship with God.

     

    They share their ignorance too in witnessing, telling people to confess all their sins or they cannot be saved, not knowing that the all powerful Saviour/HIGH PRIEST Jesus Christ already knows all the sins a person will commit in their entire lives. Therefore, what the penitent person confesses after they hear the gospel is that they believe Jesus is the Saviour who died to pay for their sins and rose again and that He forgives the sins of all who believe in Him. This is the simple eternal truth of the New Covenant with its guarantee from God:  Heb 8:12 For I will be merciful to their unrighteousness, and their sins and

     their iniquities will I remember no more.

     

     

    JESUS TEACHES US THAT BOTH HIS BODY AND BLOOD WAS NECESSARY TO MAKE AND COMPLETE THE ATONEMENT.

     

     

    The New Covenant is an absolute, eternal unchanging blood covenant, is finished for all time, Jesus Christ its Word, Saviour, Mediator, High Priest, HEAD OF THE CHURCH, and Absolute Supreme Standard. He is the absolute gospel with all of His doctrines, principals, and boundaries which are rooted, ratified, unchanging, and set for all time, by and in the will of God the Father. Holy brethren, we know that we must keep this fresh and not let it slip. This is all a part of our spiritual food, eat it all.

    CURSED ARE ALL WHO ADD TO OR TAKE AWAY FROM THIS NEW COVENANT:  Gal 1:8-9.

     

    We know, dearly beloveds, without a doubt that God always tells the truth. In fact, He is truth, and it is impossible for God to lie. Therefore, we know absolutely that we can have complete confidence and competence in learning, sharing, and living His word. Let us gather often at our Lord’s table for He lives in us and is our spiritual food wherein we shall be comforted, strengthened, and greatly aided in Him, in the indwelling presence of God our Father, and God our Holy Spirit. 


    Attend many Bible studies everywhere you can, not just our little group, hold Bible studies, interactive Bible studies are important too and we should not neglect them, read Bible studies in blogs, listen to them on audio, iPod, radio, tv broadcasts, satellite, short wave from other countries etc. Let be mindful to get our full reward by sharing the gospel at every opportunity, and doing all the good works that we can especially in ministering to the saints, the needy, and the sick.

     

    We, saints (G40 hagios), don’t need any degrees nor an advanced degree to interpret/ understand the scriptures, it is opened only to believers without cost and never natural men without the Spirit. Jesus made disciples from uneducated men and some who were well educated: Act 4:13.  Note, we only found out Luke was a physician because Paul mentioned it: Col 4:14.  Luke used his profession to treat others, not to weaponize it to rank himself above/superior to his brothers and sisters in Christ. Paul was a very learned man, and we know how he valued it: Phl 3:8. Regardless, of what level of knowledge we possess in the world, our work as Christians is to exalt God, not ourselves: 1Co 8:1; 1Co 13:2.

     

     

    I state this with love, saints (G40 hagios), anyone is free to attend any religious school of their choice, and men may require such; but that is never, never a commandment nor requirement of God for His people. No one has any authority from God to promote themselves above Christians based on mere human works. Scriptures interpret scripture without error or contradiction within the whole context of scripture.

     

    We turn to the Lord’s table, where Paul continues to reteach and warn these Hebrew believers the gospel that they had once known but allowed to slip away due to failure of ongoing study. Brothers and sisters, we know that it’s important for us to connect, to comprehend that we are a part of the long line of Christians that must continue in same path that God laid out for them. So, we don’t see this as just stuff that happened to people a long time ago, or merely an interesting read.

     

    Let us, holy people, recall the apostle and our brother Paul has taught us, that tribulation, and persecution are never punishment from God. Therefore, we can never see persecutions/tribulations as being sent as chastisement or punishment from God.

     

    Some might say what about Job. Job was not punished, God allowed him to be severely tested to a certain degree, afterwards he was found faithful, and God rewarded him on earth and in heaven. This has been the pattern throughout scriptures. God is with us even in us through it all and is our victory and will reward us for our faithfulness and trust in Him.

     

    What is the chastisement of God then if it is not punishment? First of all, holy brethren, you, me, us, know that we have to dump any notion that God’s people are free to live however they want, as if no one is in charge of the body as a whole. We know that all who hold an office and the body general have been purchased and are owned by Lord Jesus Christ and made the children of God through Him. Our Salvation and inheritance is permanent as a gift and can never be lost. However, as believers we understand that we are all accountable and responsible to God and one another to align with His will and His Word, out of love and trust in Him: Jhn 14:21; Jhn 14:24.

     

    We fully understand chastisement as God’s way, not to punish us but to correct/discipline us out of love to help and keep us set on His straight path. God will not allow any believer to live sinfully, which hurts themselves, and the body: 1Co 6:19What? know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost which is in you, which ye have of God, and ye are not your own?

    1Co 6:20 For ye are bought with a price: therefore glorify God in your body, and in your spirit, which are God's.

     

     

    Heb 12:1…"let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which doth so easily beset us”, 

    We are all in the same race as the Saints (G40 hagios), who came before us. The message is the same to/for all of us- keep on running and put off every weight and sin which the flesh attracts and adheres to with ease.

    Perhaps some might argue that God knows we are but flesh and expects that we will sin from time to time. Some might say it’s impossible to live without sinning. Even so, the real issue is that we are commanded by God never to continue or practice any sin.

     

    In a sense Paul follows up and addresses such assumptions in this manner:  Heb 12: 4Ye have not yet resisted unto blood, striving against sin

    Paul is forthright, not concerned about hurting the feelings of those who might deal with their sins delicately. Certainly, God knows we will all sin from time to time after salvation. Dealing with our sins especially those that are pleasurable can be very uncomfortable, disturbing, troubling, even appalling. However, the process of doing it, no matter how painful it seems to us, does not require us to die as those who have died under terrible persecutions, and trials, who still overcame their sins and remained faithful out of love and trust in God.

    Saying no to continuing in any sin leads to victory, saying yes leads to death: Rom 8:13

    For if ye live after the flesh, ye shall die: but if ye through the Spirit do mortify the deeds of the body, ye shall live.

    See Romans chapter 8.

     

    Raise your hand, brethren, if you have ever avoided these verses because it scared even confused you: 1Jo 3:6

    Whosoever abideth in him sinneth not: whosoever sinneth hath not seen him, neither known him.

    1Jo 5:18 We know that whosoever is born of God sinneth not; but he that is begotten of God keepeth himself, and that wicked one toucheth him not.

    I raised both of mine, until in study I understood that Christians do not have to practice any sin, and that any sin I commit I can’t blame on the devil. See, if we could blame the devil for our sins, God would have to abolish hell, and that is never going to happen. God has given us many ways to not be trapped in sins: an indwelling God who guides, guards, convicts, allows or restrains us; a new Conscience that restrains/convicts/filters acceptable from unacceptable, a new heart of love that hurts us to hurt God; a new mind like that of Christ with knowledge and the power of self -examination/self-control all through the Word of God, there is more. In addition to all of this God has a fail- safe in place for all of us.

    Some, who do not know God nor His power might say in error that since we still sin after being saved, we are still sinners who need to continually confess our sins to stay saved and in fellowship with God. Again, when we hear someone say this, we know they do not know God nor comprehend His power, in addition this error entirely omits the New Covenant esp. Heb 8:12.

     

    Love and truth forever, serola

    STUDIES IN HEBREWS

    CHAPTER 12 VS  3

    Brothers and sisters, holy family of God, priests under our eternal High Priest Jesus Christ, Saviour, Mediator, Deliverer and great Shepherd of the flock of God- both Jew and gentile made one in Him; let us come bringing to Him our offerings of sweet sacrifices of love, praises, thanks, and blessings, for He is worthy.

     

    Much love, peace and blessings to you holy brothers and sisters, whom God our Father has received as His very own dear children, through faith in God the Son of God Jesus Christ His only begotten Son. 

    From the moment we believed in the atonement of Lord Jesus, the Holy Ghost witnessed, (Eph 1:13; 1Jo 5:10), before God the Father that we are His and sealed us unto the day of redemption. Therefore, in the mouths of Lord Jesus, (Mat 10:32), and the Holy Ghost believers are confirmed before God our Father, for in the mouth of two faithful witnesses is a thing proven true before Him.

    Knowing who we are in Christ, dearly beloveds, let us speak as the spiritual oracles of God in the world and not as natural men and women any longer:  Jhn 4:241Pe 4:11. We are in the world, but no longer of this temporal world. We belong to the eternal kingdom of God.

     

    Let us get a full reward by sharing the gospel in the world and also within the body of Christ, along with any good works as we have the opportunity. Let’s keep in remembrance that although a multitude of believers know the word through being taught it and living it, there are some new and old believers-even some in the pulpit a long time that do not know it: Rom 10:14-15; Rom 10:17

    So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.

     

    Be wary of those who in error utilize the teachings of mere men, or themselves alone to verify, prove, and/or interpret scripture. These are those, without the Spirit, who are intellectually religious and love to debate/dispute with others to show their superior intellectual acumen:

    1Co 2:14-16 But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned. 1Co 1:18-23.

     

    CHRIST’S SACRIFICE ONCE FOR ALL

     

    THIS IS THE NEW COVENANT OF JESUS CHRIST

    Heb 8:10

    For this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days, saith the Lord; I will put my laws into their mind, and write them in their hearts: and I will be to them a God, and they shall be to me a people:

    11 And they shall not teach every man his neighbour, and every man his brother, saying, Know the Lord: for all shall know me, from the least to the greatest.

    Heb 8:12 For I will be merciful to their unrighteousness, and their sins and

     their iniquities will I remember no more.


     Never addressing apostates here, holy brethren, but we know that there are spiritual infants and/or the ignorant in Christ amongst us that run to 1 John 1: 9 in error to confess sins each time they sin as those under the Mosaic Law, dismissing entirely the New Covenant, knowing not the power of God, nor understanding eternal PERMANENT forgiveness OF ALL SINS FOREVER gained by Christ’s sacrifice of His sinless body AND BLOOD FOR WHOMSOEVER WILL BELIEVE IN HIM.

     

    JESUS TEACHES US THAT BOTH HIS BODY AND BLOOD WAS NECESSARY TO MAKE AND COMPLETE THE ATONEMENT.

     

    For this is my blood of the new testament, which is shed for many for the remission of sins. SEE Mat 26:26-28; Act 20:28;

    Heb 9:12; Heb 13:12;  Rev 1:5.

     

     

    The New Covenant is a blood covenant, is finished for all time, Jesus Christ its Word and Absolute Supreme Standard. He is the gospel with all of His doctrines, principals, and boundaries which are rooted, ratified, unchanging, and set for all time, by and in the will of God the Father.

    CURSED ARE ALL WHO ADD TO OR TAKE AWAY FROM THIS NEW COVENANT:  Gal 1:8-9.


    Now we know, saints (G40 hagios), that there are some who in ignorance “plead the blood”, and/or “confess their sins” after being saved to restore fellowship, or get right with God again, or to get saved again and again each time they sin by their confessions.

     

    We know most certainly this is gross ignorance seeing that our eternal Saviour and High Priest alone can atone for sins. Sins can absolutely only be forgiven by His body and blood offered once by Him, absolutely no one else has any authority from God or power to use His blood or get their sins forgiven by their own righteousness or works.

     

    When Jesus said “IT IS FINISHED” it really means just that for all eternity.

     

    God has given the church all the gifts to put the body on the same page, preaching and teaching the same truth. We need all the gifts and when any of them are left out it hurts the body. Ignorance in the body occurs if there are no teachers or if the teachers are incompetent teachers. Thanks be to God, although all of us are ignorant at some point in our faith, we do not have to stay that way.

     

    The Bible is over abundant in teaching us how God commands us to live after salvation in daily repentance towards God and holiness: see Romans chapter 8; Rom 13:12; Eph 4:22-24; Col 3:10; 1Pe 1:15-16; Heb 12:14.

    The New Covenant, dearly beloveds, can be shocking to the long time ignorant who might even be in the pulpit. Some of them might initially be defensive thinking in error that no one can be perfect in the scriptures or in any spiritual matter.  However, the many mature amongst us know absolutely that God perfects us through being taught the gospel and living the Word out of love and trust in Him: 2Ti 3:16-17. Let us be gracious whenever we find any who can benefit from hearing the gospel, just as we ourselves have also received. 

    Dearly beloveds, I give our God thanks for you, and for your patience in this study. We know that God forbids the cherry picking of the gospel, we must share the whole gospel just as Jesus did and commands us also. We return to the study confident in Lord Jesus, that the inerrant scriptures interpret scriptures, backs up, validates and proves scripture without error, within the whole context of scripture. All who bring interpretations of scriptures that contradict the inerrant truth of scripture are never, never acceptable to God and His church.

    Heb 12:3For consider him that

    endured such contradiction of sinners against himself, 

    lest ye be wearied and faint in your minds.

    Endured: to remain i.e. abide, not recede or flee; to persevere under misfortunes and trials to hold fast to one's faith in Christ; to endure, bear bravely and calmly ill treatments.

    Wearied: To tire, to grow weary, be weary.

    Faint: to weaken, exhaust; to be enfeebled through exhaustion, to grow weak, grow weary, be tired out; to despond, become faint hearted.

     

    God our Father has given us our Lord Jesus as the supreme example of love, humility, service, trust, and faith under fiery persecutions such as no other human being ever faced. We must meditate, thoroughly deliberate, keep in remembrance that despite the temptation by the adversary, the mockery, threats, blasphemy, stalking, envy of Him for His power, rebellion against Him and numerous plots to kill him by wicked religious leaders, along with other unbelieving Jews and gentiles, betrayal by one of His own, abandoned by His disciples and finally put to death unjustly to bear the sins of His enemies on the cross, Jesus remained faithful and finished His race always looking ahead to see His Father's pleased face at the end.

     

    God required His Son’s humility before exaltation and a crown of thorns before a crown of gold. Lord Jesus knew all of This before the beginning, but still voluntarily chose to come and save us because He loved us even though we were His enemies and not worth the dirt under his sandals. He experienced all the hardships, difficulties and even death that people have to face so that He would know from His own experience how to help all who will believe in Him as only a faithful eternal High Priest can.

     

    Jesus, again, dearly beloveds, was not forced to endure against His will. He did so voluntarily out of love and trust in God and for all men even His enemies. Jesus stayed focused on doing God His Father’s will, knowing God always wins it was just a matter of time, God's timing.

     

    It is important for us all to keep focused that persecution is not punishment from God: Act 14:22; 2Ti 3:12; 1Jo 3:13.

    Lord Jesus Instructs us: Luk 6:22; Jhn 16:33;

    Jhn 15:18If the world hate you, ye know that it hated me before it hated you.

    Jhn 15:19 If ye were of the world, the world would love his own: but because ye are not of the world, but I have chosen you out of the world, therefore the world hateth you.

    Jhn 15:20Remember the word that I said unto you, The servant is not greater than his lord. If they have persecuted me, they will also persecute you; if they have kept my saying, they will keep yours also.

     

    We understand, therefore, the nature of persecution, dearly beloveds, and that God allows us to be tested, tried, and proven and will bring us through it, for Jesus is our victory. God our Father, our God the Son of God Jesus Christ, our God the Holy Ghost is in our spirits, we are not alone. God is always there with each of us every step of the way. Let us run this race seeing our God waiting for us at the end. We, all the people of God have a divine appointment where we will all meet dressed in white with palm branches in our hands beholding and adoring God our Saviour Jesus in the presence of God our Father and God our Holy Ghost, and the angels. 

     

    Jesus preached the whole gospel never a sugar coated, warm and fuzzy, touchy-feely, wishy-washy pack of lies. He trusted in God His Father knowing God always wins. No matter how big and bad the enemy seems, no matter what they do or how many they might be God always wins. No man, devil, nor any creature nor anything can ever beat our Almighty, All Powerful, Invincible, Indestructible God: Rev 20:10.

    STUDIES IN HEBREWS

    CHAPTER 12 VS 1-2

    Brothers and sisters, let us thank and praise our Father God for His everlasting mercy and love, who has given us His Son our Saviour and Lord, so that we can have fellowship with Him and one another as the holy family of priests under our   Saviour and High Priest Jesus Christ Mediator of the New Covenant.

    We know absolutely, dearly beloveds, that Lord Jesus finished His work, praise His Name. His atonement is forever done, wherein we are delivered through faith in Him from the power of darkness, and the kingdom of the devil: Col 1:13;  Act 26:18.

     

    We gratefully and rightfully acknowledge that our Saviour paid in full to God His Father for all of our sins, past, present and future. We know that it is gross error to see Christ’s atonement as merely an exchange or substitution for this is found nowhere in the absolute inerrant scriptures.

    Those who claim in error that Christ’s atonement is an exchange or substitution do not know the scriptures nor the power of God. This error robs Lord Jesus of the honor, praise, and worship due Him for His mercy/love in voluntarily sacrificing Himself to pay in full to God His Father for ALL of our sins. 

    Seeing the atonement of Christ in error as merely an exchange or substitutionary wrongfully exalts sinners who see themselves as so precious and minimizes God as so needy of them that He gave His only biological Son Jesus to save them. While it is true that God so loved the world that He gave His only biological Son, His love never kept Him from seeing the truth that we were sinners, even enemies of God not one of us worthy on our own merits of His mercy and grace; for God needs no one, He is totally sufficient in and of Himself.

     

    Those in error become arrogant, proud wrongfully seeing God as so needy of them He had to save them. True worship of God the creator and Maker of all flesh is lost as such persons elevate themselves instead of the only Saviour worthy of all worship, honor, glory, and praise.

     

    THIS IS THE NEW COVENANT OF JESUS CHRIST

    Heb 8:10

    For this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days, saith the Lord; I will put my laws into their mind, and write them in their hearts: and I will be to them a God, and they shall be to me a people:

    11 And they shall not teach every man his neighbour, and every man his brother, saying, Know the Lord: for all shall know mefrom the least to the greatest.

    Heb 8:12 For I will be merciful to their unrighteousness, and their sins and

     their iniquities will I remember no more.

     

     Mat 26:28

    For this is my blood of the new testament, which is shed for many for the remission of sins.

     

     

    God through Paul has spelled out to all believers for all time the absolute and only kind of faith that can please God in blunt explicit, exhaustive, exclusive and absolute eternal terms. Furthermore, those of faith must also trust that God will never do them harm, but good, always resting confidently in the truth of His love, mercy, kindness and goodness, knowing that He is a rewarder of all who come to him. NO ONE CAN PLEASE GOD WITHOUT THIS KIND OF FAITH.

     

    Without faith in God all of our knowledge of Him is worthless and we have no valid claim of belonging to Him.

     

     

    Heb 11:6 But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.

     

     

     

    Dearly beloveds let us go into the study again to eat and drink into Christ our Lord who will always feed us well and cause us to be strengthened/comforted in His word. We confidently look to inerrant scripture within the context of scripture to validate and give us the correct interpretation of scripture. the Bible ensures us that the very Christ who redeemed us has given us the ability to comprehend and have full and complete knowledge and faith in Him

     

    End notes on Heb. Chapter 11: Paul, dearly beloveds, could have simply told these Hebrew believers that we all have trials, so none of them should be surprised and quoted a few verses of scriptures and left it at that. However, he does not.

     

    They had gone through great trials, but still loved one another and had lovingly, gladly, shared what they had with Paul when he was in need in bonds. Paul thoroughly takes them through time to expound meticulously on the many trials that God’s people have faced. He wanted to connect them to understand- to see themselves as a part of the continuum of that long line of suffering faithful and to understand/grasp/ to see that they were not alone in their sufferings, and neither are we.

    He does not paint a fairy tale life for those who choose to believe in Jesus and live holy lives under the New Covenant in this present evil world.

    We leave Heb. Chapter 11 with the understanding that our trials are not punishment from God for sins, but due to being righteous in an evil world that hates God and His people. Our suffering has a purpose, is part of God’s plan, allowed by Him, is not in vain for Jesus is in us through it all with God our Father and God the Holy Spirit who will cause us to prevail and have victory in it out of love, faith, and trust in Him.

     

    1Pe 4:12 Beloved, think it not strange concerning the fiery trial which is to try you, as though some strange thing happened unto you: 13 But rejoice, inasmuch as ye are partakers of Christ's sufferings; that, when his glory shall be revealed, ye may be glad also with exceeding joy.

    I.Fiery trial: a burning

    A. the burning by which metals are roasted and reduced.

    B. by a figure drawn from a refiners fire.

    i.calamities or trials that test the character.

     

     Strange:  unusual; to surprise, shock or astonish by the strangeness and novelty of a thing. 

     

    Eph 6:16 Above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked.

     

    Leaving chapter 11 of Hebrews we cannot fail to understand the only kind of faith that pleases God.

     

    Heb 12:1Wherefore seeing we also are compassed about with so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which doth so easily beset us, and let us run with patience the race that is set before us,

     

    Patience: steadfastness, constancy, endurance; in the NT the characteristic of a man, or woman who is not swerved from his deliberate purpose and his loyalty to faith and devoutness by even the greatest trials and sufferings; patiently, and steadfastly; a patient, steadfast waiting for; a patient enduring, sustaining, perseverance, derived from facing trials resting in trusting a faithful God  Luk 8:15;  Luk 21:19: Rom 5:3

    Ro 5: 3 And not only so, but we glory in tribulations also: knowing that tribulation 

    worketh patience; 4And patience, experience; and experience, hope

     

    Glory: joy, rejoice in an absolute sense without any form of shame. Rom 5:5

     

    Paul had been given the full gospel completely by revelation personally received from Lord Jesus Christ:  Eph 3:3;  Gal 1:12. Although Paul had the full power and authority of an apostle, he never failed to present himself as a brother, and servant leader to the church. He does not come to them as a scholar wanting perpetual students to honor and glorify himself, but as a loving teacher who wants his students to grow up to maturity and go forward to glorify God by living godly lives privately, publicly, while sharing the message in the world.

    We note that Paul includes himself along with everyone of us in declaring that the race we are running, holy brethren, is set by God for us. It is not impossible to run this race because we see clearly from God’s record that we have an overwhelming number of witnesses that have done so out of faith in God to please Him, and so can we.

     

    Therefore, none of us have any excuse. God empowers and commands us to lay aside, put off every distraction, every type of sin that easily causes us to lose sight of God’s eternal perspective, if we allow it to do so. Call to remembrance, holy people, this world is only temporary, will never be permanent. During the course of our allotted time only what we do for Christ will last for all eternity.

     

    Carrying out God’s will does not mean living like an ascetic, neglecting our earthly duties to our families and not caring about our fellow men in the world, not enjoying any earthly pleasures. However, it does mean not allowing besetting sins or the pressures of life to deter us from following after our faithful Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. Despite all of these things we never put God on the back burner, but keep Him as the Head and First in all matters, while living godly lives in this present evil world:

     

    Heb12:2 Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our 

    faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God.

     

    It is Lord Jesus the Faithful and True One, Son of God who in order to bring salvation to the lost and dying world ran His race set by God, keeping His eyes on His Father. He ran it with joy knowing He would bring many sons and daughters to glory. The wicked tried to shame Him, He wouldn’t stop running, the devil tried to trip Him up by tempting Him, Jesus wouldn’t stop running, the nation sent Him to death Jesus kept on running, death tried to hold Him in its grip, but early one Sunday morning Jesus rose to life again from the grave, forever having finished His race, having abolished death and holding the keys of hell and death with all power and authority and having brought forth His Eternal New Covenant.

     

    Therefore, brothers and sisters, I am fully persuaded, convicted and convinced that all the people of God through the power of our Saviour and Lord Jesus Christ know: Rom 8:37Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us.

     

     

    Phl 1:6 Being confident of this very thing, that he which hath begun a good work in you will perform it until the day of Jesus Christ:

     

     Phl4:13I can do all things through Christ 

    which strengtheneth me.

    STUDIES IN HEBREWS

    CHAPTER 12

    Brothers and sisters let us, the holy family of God, give our sweet sacrifices of praises, blessings, and love offerings to our Triune God of power, love, truth and mercy for His everlasting salvation, who has made us priests under our High Priest and Lord, God the Son of God Jesus Christ.

    Holy brothers and sisters, much love and peace to you always, I give our God thanks for you, and for your fellowship in this study. May our God of everlasting power and eternal life bless you mightily in body and spirit in resting confidently in Him in rightly dividing His word:

     2Ti 2:15 Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.

     

     

    2Ti 3:16 All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: 17 That the man of God may be perfect, throughly furnished unto all good works.

    Therefore, do not allow anyone to teach you anything about God exclusively from books written by mere men. Some books can be helpful but never, never as the sole source of understanding the Bible.

     

    We know brethren, there can be no unity in the church apart from the absolute truth of the Bible- finished in the New Covenant of God the Son of God Jesus  Christ. Every Christian is commanded by God to Study and know the Bible for themselves after we are taught it by pastors, elders, teachers. Let us also attend many Bible studies, hold Bible studies, interactive Bible studies promote more rapid spiritual growth.

     

    With the exceptions of the apostles that Christ opened up the Bible to ensure their ministry in establishing the church:Luk 24:45, God commands that it be taught to believers who must habitually keep studying it also on their own to live by it as well as to aid other believers and to share it with the lost. Therefore, we should not assume that Christians know it automatically.

     

    Sadly, amongst the many mature Christians, we will find those who are ignorant of scripture, not just new believers, but some in the pulpit many years.

     

    There is no need to hunt for the ignorant for they are obvious in their speaking, writings, and teachings. There are many examples of ignorance. Most certainly, when anyone tells the Christians welcome to the church, instead of church welcome to the building- then we know the person has no knowledge that the church is the people of God not the building they gather in to worship.  Other indicators are usage of special lingo and terms about Christ's atonement as "substitutionary". They may also teach that salvation can be lost permanently or temporarily i.e. "backsliding", having no understanding of Christ's absolute promise of eternal salvation, eternal life, His indwelling, and promise of never leaving nor abandoning the believer.  

     

    We also know that someone is ignorant when we hear them preach that only certain books of the Bible were written to/for Christians and the rest only to/for the Jews when the Bible makes it abundantly clear: Rom 15:4 For whatsoever things were written aforetime were written for our learning

    that we through patience and comfort of the scriptures might have hope.

    Again, and again, dearly beloveds, we know that the Bible makes it clear that the Word of God is the spiritual food for the whole of the church and is absolutely necessary for every believer to grow to maturity and live lives pleasing to God. We are the Lamb's sheep with swords, coming in peace, however, well able to defend the gospel and protect the flock.  

     

    We know, dearly beloveds, that the Bible is not a read once and forget it book. Neither has God appointed nor commanded any so-called spiritual elites, gurus, pundits, experts or scholars that the body general must depend upon alone to know the Bible. The Bible is for all Christians to be taught and come to know God for themselves, no special training is necessary nor commanded by God. Without the Holy Spirit given through faith in Lord Jesus no one can understand nor obey the scriptures: 1Co 2:14


     

    We recall, again, holy people, that Paul had previously taught these Hebrew believers the scriptures and afterwards they had in ignorance laid it aside and went on with their lives-spiraling into spiritual decline, having no teachers, no guidance under trials, and having grown impatient, tired of trials, not wanting to wait any longer for God to reward them. 

     

    We note how gracious Paul is, not rebuking them, but reteaching them and finding them highly receptive to go forward retaining and living the word.   Let us be gracious too should we find any ignorant amongst us.

     

    The Holy Spirit speaks out to all flashing spiritual neon signs from the beginning, middle and end of this book and the whole of scripture that all of our knowledge and works are worthless to God without faith that works by love: Heb 11:6

    But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.

     

     

    Brethren, find laid out chapter 12 of Hebrews to study personally on our own that the Word of God would minister to our personal needs. Let us take time to carefully dine upon, feast upon, meditate, reflect, looking to apply the word in living daily out of trust in our Lord, to please Him above all.

    We know that God our Father, God our Saviour, and God our Holy Spirit is always right there in and with us working together to help us understand the word, to comfort and to guide us into all righteousness, for His glory and our good.

     

     

     Heb 12:1Wherefore seeing we also are compassed about with so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which doth so easily beset us, and let us run with patience the race that is set before us,

    Heb 12:2 Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God.

    Heb 12:3For consider him that

    endured such contradiction of sinners against himself, 

    lest ye be wearied and faint in your minds. 4Ye have not yet resisted unto blood, striving against sin. 5 And ye have forgotten the exhortation which speaketh unto you as unto children, My son, despise not thou the chastening of the Lord, nor faint when thou art rebuked of him: 6For whom the Lord loveth he chasteneth, and scourgeth every son whom he receiveth.

     

    7If ye endure chastening, God dealeth with you as with sons; for what son is he whom the father chasteneth not?

    8 But if ye be without chastisement, whereof all are partakers, then are ye bastards, and not sons.

    9 Furthermore we have had fathers of our flesh which corrected us, and we gave them reverence: shall we not much rather be in subjection unto the Father of spirits, and live? 10 For they verily for a few days chastened us after their own pleasure; but he for our profit, that we might be partakers of his holines.

    Heb 12:11 Now no chastening for the present seemeth to be joyous, but grievous: nevertheless afterward it yieldeth the peaceable fruit of righteousness unto them which are exercised thereby. 12 Wherefore lift up the hands which hang down, and the feeble knees;

    13And make straight paths for your feet, lest that which is lame be turned out of the way; but let it rather be healed.

    14 Follow peace with all men, and holiness, without which no man shall see the Lord:

    15 Looking diligently lest any man fail of the grace of God; lest any root of bitterness springing up trouble you, and thereby many be defiled;

    16 Lest there be any fornicator, or profane person, as Esau, who for one morsel of meat sold his birthright. 17 For ye know how that afterward, when he would have inherited the blessing, he was rejected: for he found no place of repentance, though he sought it carefully with tears. 18 For ye are not come unto the mount that might be touched, and that burned with fire, nor unto blackness, and darkness, and tempest,

    19 And the sound of a trumpet, and the voice of words; which voice they that heard intreated that the word should not be spoken to them any more:

    20 (For they could not endure that which was commanded, And if so much as a beast touch the mountain, it shall be stoned, or thrust through with a dart:

    21 And so terrible was the sight, that Moses said, I exceedingly fear and quake:)

    22 But ye are come unto mount Sion, and unto the city of the living God, the heavenly Jerusalem, and to an innumerable company of angels, 23 To the general assembly and church of the firstborn, which are written in heaven, and to God the Judge of all, and to the spirits of just men made perfect,

    24 And to Jesus the mediator of the new covenant, and to the blood of sprinkling, that speaketh better things than that of Abel.

    25 See that ye refuse not him that speaketh. For if they escaped not who refused him that spake on earth, much more shall not we escape, if we turn away from him that speaketh from heaven:

    26 Whose voice then shook the earth: but now he hath promised, saying, Yet once more I shake not the earth only, but also heaven.

    27 And this word, Yet once more, signifieth the removing of those things that are shaken, as of things that are made, that those things which cannot be shaken may remain.

    28 Wherefore we receiving a kingdom which cannot be moved, let us have grace, whereby we may serve God acceptably with reverence and godly fear:

    29 For our God is a consuming fire.

    STUDIES IN HEBREWS

    CHAPTER 11 VS  35-40

     

    Brothers and sisters, much love, peace, power (Jhn 1:12But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name),

    and blessings to you in the wonderful Name of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, God the Son of God, High Priest, Mediator, and Head of the church His body, the royal priesthood of all believers, whom He has made His living temple to indwell with Himself, and God our Father, and God our Holy Spirit.

    In earlier chapters Paul revealed that most of Israel under the Mosaic Law did not enter into the kingdom for although they received the promises, they chose not to BELIEVE it, and therefore could not enter into it.

     

    All thanks and praises be to our Triune God, our Guard and our Guide into all truth in Him. It is not acceptable to God to just receive His gospel, He commands that those who receive it believe and obey it also.

    As we continue spiritually dining on the Word in this study, dearly beloveds, in this new year let us also keep in remembrance aways the absolute authority, and unchanging eternal New Covenant of Jesus Christ: Christ's Sacrifice Once for All

     

    Heb 10:16This is the covenant that I will make with them after those days, saith the Lord, I will put my laws into their hearts, and in their minds will I write them;

    17And their sins and iniquities will I remember no more.

    18Now where remission of these is, there is no more offering for sin.   Isa 43:25;  Jer 31:34;  Psa 103:12.

     

     

    Holy brethren, we know how greatly God is offended by blasphemy against His gospel message of grace and truth that He sent down with the Holy Ghost - guarantee of His absolute truth/eternal power, that He declares:  Mat 12:32And 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. 

     

    Blasphemeth: to vilify; specially, to speak impiously:—(speak) blaspheme(-er, -mously, -my), defame, rail on, revile, slander: 2Pe 2:12; 1Co 12:3; Gal 1:8-9; 1Ti 4:1 -2.

     

    Speaking lies: speaking (teaching) falsely, speaking lies-mendacious, i.e. promulgating erroneous Christian doctrine:—speaking lies.

    Remember, the heretic rejects the inerrant absolute truth of the Bible to pervert the gospel to deceive and turn people away from God to themselves.

    Rev 22:19

    And if any man shall take away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God 

    shall take away his part out of the book of life, and out of the holy city, and from the things which are written in this book.

     

    Gal6:7Be not deceived; God is not 

    mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap.

    I.Mocked: to turn up the nose or sneer at

    II.to deride.

     


    Brothers and sisters, Paul continues to take these Hebrew believers, and us too, holy brethren, on a journey of understanding of faith-that God allows/commands that our faith be tested, tried, and proven through sufferings/persecutions/trials.

    Our brother and apostle Peter encourages us all:  (See this whole chapter) 1Pe 1:7

    That the trial of your faith, being much more precious than of gold that perisheth, though it be tried with fire, might be found unto praise and honour and glory

    at the appearing of Jesus Christ:

     

     

    Heb 11:35 Women received their dead raised to life again: dearly beloveds, God is not silent about godly women. Here we find women who did not lead an army to battle as Deborah did- see judges 4. However, we see the power of faith revealed that dwells in the heart and spirit of the believer who takes God at His word without wavering or doubting resulting in the receiving of loved ones from the dead to life.

    AND OTHERS

     

     

    And others were tortured, not accepting deliverance; that they might obtain a better resurrection: 

    Heb 11:36 And others had trial of cruel mockings and scourgings, yea, moreover of bonds and imprisonment:Unchecked Copy Box 

    Heb 11:37 They were stoned, they were sawn asunder, were tempted, were slain with the sword: they wandered about in sheepskins and goatskins; being destitute, afflicted, tormented; Unchecked Copy Box 

    Heb 11:38 (Of whom the world was not worthy:) they wandered in deserts, and in mountains, and in dens and caves of the earth.

    Dearly beloveds, we have an abundance of sermons about mighty men in battle fighting victoriously in faith for the Lord, and rightly so. However, God commands, that these others not be left out, who were not delivered, some lost everything, were killed, tortured, devalued/brutalized as human beings, some had to run for their lives, were tempted in it-this too is normative in the lives of believers as God allows, however not to all.

     

    What does God have to say about these saints (G40 hagios)?

      

    Heb 11:39 And these all, having obtained a good report through faith, received not the promise:  

    Dearly beloveds, we see that our God concluded them too in His record of the faithful. This message is for us too, not just the saints (G40 hagios) of old. There are times, dearly beloveds, when we have to fight and there are times God gives us the wisdom to know when we have to flee or even to die. Nevertheless, all of these remained faithful, although the promise of the New Messianic Covenant was to be manifested in the future, not to the faithful of the past, nor those under the Mosaic Law.

     

    Heb 11:40 God having provided some better thing for us, that they without us 

    should not be made perfect.

    We know that Christ delivered the saints of old that had died and were kept waiting for Him in the bosom of Abraham. Christ died bodily, but His spirit did not die. In fact immediately after Christ's bodily death/atoning work on the cross He descended into the lower parts of earth with all power and authority having the keys of death and hell taken back from the devil, and released/freed these faithful believers, along with the faithful thief on the cross, wherein they had been held captive in death:  Psa 49:15;  Hos 13:14; Jhn 11:25; Mat 27:50-53; 2Co 5:8; 2Ti 1:10.

     

    Brothers and sisters, we know that God from the beginning made His promise of permanent salvation and eternal forgiveness of ALL sins through the eternal power of the future Messiah to come to all the seed not just the Jews:

     Jhn3:15That whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have eternal life.

    Jhn 3:16For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not

    perish, but have everlasting life..

     

    Gen 26:4; Hos 2:23Isa 56:7; Mar 11:17; Rom 3:29; Rom 9:25; Gal 3:8.

     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;

     

    Why do some say in error that the New Covenant is not for the whole world but saves only those whom God has predetermined to be elected, and everybody else will be lost?

     

    We know, brethren, that this is a gross misinterpretation of:1Pe 1:2

    Elect according to the foreknowledge of God the Father, through sanctification of the Spirit, unto obedience and sprinkling of the blood of Jesus Christ: Grace unto you, and peace, be multiplied.

    Those who believe in error that Christ’s atonement is limited do not know God, neither His unlimited eternal power, nor that His New Covenant is absolute, cannot be changed, abolished, or annulled-not even by God Himself as this is what God intended and is for all who will believe in Him for all time.

    Scripture without error validates, proves, and interprets scripture within the whole context of scripture completely within the whole context of both the O.T and also within the whole of the final, finished and complete New Covenant of Jesus Christ.



     

     

    Through the inerrant scriptures we can easily answer the question of who are the elect?-Whomsoever believes in Jesus Christ. Christ is not bound by time, distance, nor space. He created it and controls it, for we know one day He will cause it to cease.

     

    At the moment one believes in Lord Jesus Christ, by the power of His atonement in which He paid for all of our sins forever-He blots out, removes, demolishes, purges, destroys absolutely/completely away All sins of the believer past, present, and future for all time as though they never happened, this is clearly declared absolutely in His New Covenant as well as the O.T. Therefore, this means absolutely that all who come to God through faith in Him are the elect- so say His inerrant New Covenant, in full agreement with the many O.T verses:  Isa 1:18

    Come now, and let us reason together, saith the LORD: though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they be red like crimson, they shall be as wool. See Jer 31: 34.

    The New Covenant of Jesus Christ can never be nullified, abolished or changed in any way or manner for all eternity-not even by God Himself, for that is His intent that it is a forever covenant. Jesus is His eternally living High Priest forever and unchanging: Heb 7:21;

    Gal 3:17.

    Brothers and sisters, we know that this does not mean that Christians are free to live lives of sinfulness as we did before being saved, for the scriptures gives an overabundance on how believers are to live after salvation according to the Spirit not the flesh. This takes time, our ongoing study, and practice/living which is aided by the church as a whole not just the pastors, elders and teachers.

    God’s Word is our spiritual food. Let us keep in remembrance, dearly beloveds, that man cannot live on bread only, but by every word that comes from the mouth of God.

    Love and truth forever, serola
