DINNER WITH JESUS CHRIST
Brothers and sisters, much love, blessings and peace to you in the name of God our Father, God the Son of God Jesus Christ, and God the Holy Ghost. I thank our God for you all. You are in my prayers early and often, that our Great Shepherd Jesus Christ would root you in Him and fill you with all the riches of His love, truth, wisdom and strength for He cares deeply for you, me, us forever. I pray Lord Jesus will send healing, help, and comfort to those who are sick, or bereaved. I pray that God will grant the clarity of His wisdom for any in trouble and/or having to make difficult decisions, even so resting in the comfort and strength of the Holy Ghost trusting in God our Father’s love and truth regardless of situation, circumstances or conditions, for His love never fails and His truth endures forever. Lord Jesus for any not seeing any way out I beseech you in their behalf that you will give them your sure guidance, and show them the way that they should go. Lord Jesus continually lift them up let them not stumble, but give them the victory and the relief/release that they may be refreshed and strengthened in you.
Some claiming to know the gospels teach the lie that God has no need of priests anymore, but we know the absolute truth from scripture the book of Hebrews among other books that clearly teach the eternal absolute truth that God has ordained an eternal High Priest in our Saviour Jesus Christ God the Son of God anointed by God the Father: Heb 4:14
Seeing then that we have a great high priest, that is passed into the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold fast our profession. Heb 4:15 - For we have not an high priest which cannot be touched with the feeling of our infirmities; but was in all points tempted like as we are, yet without sin.Heb 4:16 - Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need. Through Jesus Christ God declares that all of His people are priests although all do not have the same office: 1Pe 2:9 - But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people; that ye should shew forth the praises of him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvellous light: New believers initially know little but that they are saved through Christ’s atonement. It is over the course of time that the believer through servant officers, teachers, mature believers, receives teachings, studies, lives, shares what is taught and comes to understand the word and arrives at maturity- having a comprehensive understanding of the New Covenant within the context of both the Old and New Covenants. God through Christ has established the permanent identity of His people. Brothers and sisters, let us priests give continual offerings of fervent love, praises and thank offerings to God our Father through Jesus Christ our Saviour, great High Priest, Mediator, omnipotent, omniscient, omnipresent Potentate, invincible in power, and mighty in love and mercy for He is worthy. Therefore, holy brethren let us always continue to assemble together as God commands, yet let us look no more to temples made by the hands of men for God Has declared: 1Co 3:16 - Know ye not that ye are the temple of God, and that the Spirit of God dwelleth in you?1Co 3:17 - If any man defile the temple of God, him shall God destroy; for the temple of God is holy, which temple ye are. 1Co 6:19; Act 7:48 - Howbeit the most High dwelleth not in temples made with hands; as saith the prophet, Act 17:24 - God that made the world and all things therein, seeing that he is Lord of heaven and earth, dwelleth not in temples made with hands;
Holy brethren, I pray that we shall always remember who we are as priests under our Eternal absolute High Priest, Jesus Christ, serving as His representatives and ambassadors on earth, therefore let us all act accordingly knowing that everything we do reflects on Him for the good or otherwise.
We know that God is absolute eternal love and truth, He is a discerner of the intents and motives of the heart.
The Levitical Aaronic high priest under the Law had to accept whatever was offered by the people. He had no way of knowing what was in the hearts or minds of the givers. He didn’t know whether they gave willingly or begrudgingly. He didn’t know if the people gave out of love cheerfully or out of fear of punishment by God if they failed to give. He had no way of knowing if what the people gave was from honest labor, or from thievery or some other illicit act. He had to accept what the people gave on face value and all of it went into the treasury. The Levitical priesthood is done away in Christ, God the Son of God whom God the Father has anointed as the Eternal absolute High Priest of the New Covenant after the order of Melchizedek. Because Jesus is fully man and fully God, equal with God the Father and also omnipotent, omniscient, and omnipresent He is able to know what is in the hearts, minds intents and purposes of His people when they give or do any works dedicated to Him. No works or offerings of any kind not given to Jesus out of love and trust in Him is accepted. This is why God warns in 13 chapter of Corinthians vs 1 that we can have gifts, give all our money to the poor, even give our bodies to be burned etc., but without charity or agape love we are nothing to Him, we have no relationship nor kinship with Him.
Most certainly as we return to our study, dearly beloveds, in every sense we look at a scene of two mourners one whom John our brother and apostle reveals as the repentant Mary who had set at Jesus’s feet intensely attentive to His teachings the few times He was in her home, who believed in Him realizing the great sacrifice that Christ would give of His life, in love, worship, and mourning anointed his feet with the valuable ointment knowing that Christ was the true value beyond all treasures of the present evil world. The other mourner, Judas Iscariot heard Jesus’ preaching publicly and privately, saw all the miracles, received the love and encouragement from the God Man, received all the warnings to turn him away from betrayal, knew the price of everything and the value of nothing. Judas saw Jesus as worthless, Jesus’ death as the cruel end of the gravy train and easy money that he stole from the money bag, his hopes of a cushy position and power under the ministry of Jesus evaporated. Judas Iscariot who had lived, slept and ate in the presence Jesus during His entire ministry on earth, still didn’t believe in Him and never called Jesus Lord. Likely, Judas thought when Mary appeared with her precious ointment, he would gain possession of it and secure a final windfall from stealing from it. He mourned the loss of it and seems to have gone over the edge at the loss of this last hope of financial gain when he saw Mary putting all of her ointment on Jesus. 4Then saith one of his disciples, Judas Iscariot, Simon's son, which should betray him,
5 Why was not this ointment sold for three hundred pence, and given to the poor? 6 This he said, not that he cared for the poor; but because he was a thief, and had the bag, and bare what was put therein. 7Then said Jesus, Let her alone: against the day of my burying hath she kept this.
8 For the poor always ye have with you; but me ye have not always.
Jesus is protective of Mary, and reveals that her anointings of Him were not random acts out of the blue. Instead, Jesus revealed she heard the gospel and believed. she understood Him as Man and God, His mission, message and the meaning of His coming death and had obtained her ointment in advance for the sole purpose to lavish it upon Him it in love, worship and gratitude for the world changing sacrifice He would give of His life to pay in full for the sins of the world to save all who believe in Him.
Some would have been outraged at Judas knowing he was a thief who was going to betray them Some would have called Judas every bad name in the book to display their utter disgust at this dog who’d bite the hand that fed him. Some might have become physical and thrown the ingrate, sneaky thief Judas out of the house. However, Jesus does none of that. Jesus is always in control, and here we get a deep understanding of our Lord as Good, Great Shepherd, who protects and lauds the repentant Mary and rebukes yet still offers Judas Iscariot as it were the last chance to stir up in him some type of human feeling of love for Him, that he might miss Him or long for Him after His passing. We cannot fail to note the great love patience, long suffering, and mercy of Lord Jesus in His dealing with Judas Iscariot. John gives us the final rendition of the Story of Mary and her precious ointment here, reminding us that repentance is more than a word or a one time event, and that those who hear and believe the gospel are led by God in repentance to love and show gratitude to the Saviour that made heaven possible for all who believe in Him. We must look further at Judas Iscariot this evil man and what the Bible means by the horrific occurrence that satan entered him. Stay tuned.
Love and truth forever, serola

DINNER WITH JESUS CHRIST
Brothers and sisters, we know that we
can do nothing without Jesus. We can’t even know God without Jesus or know
Jesus unless He reveals Himself and the Father to us through faith in His name.
The Bible clearly teaches that No one can know God on the basis of human
effort, intellect, or obtaining a degree, denominations, institutions,
organizations, doctrines of men, or works of any kind or manner whatsoever.
When the gospel is preached and over time when one is taught- it is Jesus who opens
up the scriptures-God giving all men a measure of faith in believing; the goodness of
God leading men to repentance, albeit not all are willing to receive the
truth: Rom 2:4; Rom 12:3; Eph 1:18; Mat 11:27 All
things are delivered unto
me of my Father: and no man knoweth the Son, but the Father; neither knoweth any man the Father, save the Son, and he to whomsoever the Son will reveal him. Luk 24:45; Eph 1:18; Heb 8:11 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. Dearly beloveds, as we sit together at
the Lord’s table to be fed and nourished of Him through His word, in the presence
of God our Father, the Holy Ghost our teacher helps us to learn of Him and to
reveal His will directly, and through the gifts of the Holy Spirit, to the
church that we might grow over time from milk to the maturity of the meat of the Word-
established and stable in faith, service, living and sharing the word to
encourage one another and to witness it in this present evil world. Dearly
beloveds we know that the Study of
evil people can cause some to shudder, feel uncomfortable, or even not want to
think about evil people. Some may think it is rude, impolite or even hateful to
describe another human being as evil. However, God commands you, me, us, to faithfully
uphold comprehensively the eternal truth of the whole Word of God whether men
agree with it or not is irrelevant. God commands us all to fully understand
comprehensively both good and evil: The
Bible teaches: Heb
5:14 - But strong meat belongeth
to them that are of full age, even those who by reason of use have their
senses exercised to discern both good and evil.
God commands that His people be taught the word of God to grow from milk to
meat in our understanding of His eternal, absolute, inerrant truth. We know,
holy brethren, that we don’t have to reinvent the wheel for God has taught and
laid out in His word explicitly, exhaustively, exclusively, absolutely
throughout scriptures from the beginning to end clearly teaching us and providing
many examples of the evil fruit of the impenitent unbelieving natural
depraved/corrupt hearts and minds of those without/devoid of the Spirit as well
as the good fruit of the penitent spiritual believer- Spirit filled having good
hearts and minds who trust and obey God, through whom they bear the eternal
good fruit of the Spirit: Luk 6:43. We know that
Judas didn’t believe anything that Jesus continually taught. Jesus had taught
His disciples that He came to die yet would rise again in victory. Judas
knowing that Christ would die and therefore, his meal ticket would be lost didn’t
believe Jesus would rise again in victory from the grave. Therefore, seeing the
loss of his meal ticket, and a cushy position in an earthly kingdom he would
cut his losses and get the last bit of money possible from Jesus by betraying
Him. Some might say didn’t the other disciples want to know what was the payoff
for serving the Lord? Jesus found nothing wrong with His disciples’ request to
know what rewards they would receive on earth and in heaven by serving Him. Jesus
reveals to them and to us also the rewards He delights and has prepared to
richly reward all who love and obey Him in heaven and on earth: Mar 10:30; Heb 11:6 - But without faith it
is impossible to please him: for hethat cometh to
God must believe that he is, and that he
is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him. We are
commanded to understand evil from God’s perspective: Judas was there only for
the money and power. Judas cared nothing for the kingdom of God, and would not
have even consented to be a disciple without the opportunity for great gain. Dearly
beloveds we know that there are some even now like Judas who serve God only for
gain, and would never serve Him without it. To be clear God doesn’t teach it is
evil to be rich or have money, it teaches that it is evil for this to be the
only reason one serves God. See 1Ti 6 that
addresses these issues and there are many more teachings on this elsewhere in
scripture. Now scriptures go even further, one can have many good works, even
sacrifice their lives and still be an impenitent unbeliever whose works mean
nothing to God. To some this might seem incredulous, shocking, puzzling, cruel
and perhaps lead some to think that the scriptures are conflicting with itself.
After all, doesn’t the Bible teach God won’t forget our good works? And what about a good tree cannot bear corrupt fruit directly From the mouth of our Lord Jesus Christ? We will of
necessity need to understand this from God’s perspective, the only perspective
that counts. The Word of God is inerrant, absolute truth and never contradicts
itself in any way or manner whatsoever. stay tuned. Love and truth forever, serola

DINNER WITH JESUS CHRIST
Brothers and sisters, much
love, peace and blessings in the name of God the Father who has bestowed upon
us and all who believe and obey Jesus Christ, God the Son of God and raised Him
up above the highest heavens, and all principalities and powers, giving Him
every honor and praise and a name above every name in heaven and earth: Phl
2:9 - Wherefore God also hath highly
exalted him, and given him a name which is
above every name:
Phl
2:10 - That at the name of
Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in
earth, and things under the earth; Phl
2:11 - And that every tongue should
confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the
glory of God the Father. The Bible takes us back in time, and we
remember that Jesus wants us to remember what Mary had done for Him, which is her
act of worship in thanks and understanding that He would sacrifice His life on
the cross to pay IN FULL
for the sins of all who believe in Him. She understood the Man God, His death,
His mission and His message to the whole world. Jesus wants you, me, us to remember
Him also in this same heart felt intense deeply personal way in faith without
doubting: The solemn remembrance of the Lord’s communion supper reminds us that
we should participate in understanding of our Christ’s sacrifice of His sinless
body and blood that brought forth the new testament that could not have been
brought forth without His body and blood Heb
9:17 - For a testament is of
force after men are dead: otherwise it is
of no strength at
all while the testator liveth. Christ’s blood: Heb
9:22 - And almost all
things are by the law purged with blood; and without shedding
of blood is no remission. We know and understand therefore that
the gospel of the New Covenant of Jesus Christ is absolute, eternal, explicit,
exhaustive, exclusive, complete/final and finished forever: Jhn 14:6 - Jesus saith unto
him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no
man cometh unto the Father, but by me. God
has no alternatives, no plan bs, multiple choices, compromises, deals, excuses,
exceptions to being saved other than through faith in Christ. Jesus is equal with
Father: Phl 2:6.
Jesus is to be worshipped just as the Father is Worshipped: Jhn 5: 23That
all men should honour the Son, even as they honour the Father.
He that honoureth not the Son honoureth not the Father which hath sent him. In our study of Judas Iscariot, the image of evil
people as somehow being detectable by their looking nefarious, shady, manner of
speech etc is dispelled. The Bible warns that even the devil can appear as an
angel of light. Dearly beloveds, we know from scripture that Jesus knew Judas
was a thief; knew he was going to betray Him, knew he was a devil. Nevertheless,
and despite knowing all this about Judas Iscariot, Jesus never withdrew His
love from Judas. Jesus never publicly exposed him to the disciples, except at
the last supper, although
the other disciples did not understand this. Again saints (G40 hagios) we
know from scripture that over the entire course of His earthly ministry Jesus
gave Judas the same love, the same truth, the same gospel and the same power as
all the other disciples. Jesus even washed Judas’ feet the same as He washed
the other disciples’ feet. Jesus even gave Judas the money bag even though He
knew Judas was a thief. The Bible tells us: Mat
5:45; Mat
5:46; 2Pe
3:9The Lord is not slack concerning
his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that
any should perish, but that all should
come to repentance. Oh the great faithfulness,
mercy and love of the Son of God to all who trust in Him! Judas Iscariot looked like a regular
person, he lived, ate, with the other disciples who did not suspect what he
was, he fooled them, but never Lord Jesus who said of Him: Jhn 6:70
Jesus answered them, Have not I chosen you twelve, and one of you is a devil?
71 He spake of
Judas Iscariot the son of Simon: for he it
was that should betray him, being one of the
twelve.While the repentant Mary was anointing Lord Jesus with her costly
ointment, in worship and thankfulness of His coming sacrifice of Himself, we
recall what Judas Iscariot said: Jhn 12:5Why was not this ointment sold for
three hundred pence, and given to the poor? 6This he
said, not that he cared for the
poor; but because he was a
thief, and had the bag, and bare what was put
therein.Holy people, we can see the evidence of his greed and anger in that he
had calculated already the sum of money he had lost the opportunity to steal,
and never had any intention of sharing or giving any of it to the poor. Even
today among true believers there are those who even though they may attend
church services, and fellowship with other Christians speaking
churchianity and bragging on their so-called
good deeds for a long time, it is on a mere social level and/or for worldly
gain, remaining unbelievers to the end, to their damnation. While it is
possible to fool men God declares in His Word:2Ti 2:19Nevertheless the
foundation of God standeth sure, having this seal, The Lord knoweth them that are his, And, let every one that nameth the name of Christ depart from iniquity. love and truth forever, serola

New Testament Christians can never lose their salvation
Scriptures
absolutely interpret, teaches, corrects, confirms/validates, backs up, proves,
and defends Scriptures absolutely
without error nor
contradiction of any kind nor in any manner within the whole context of both the New and Old
Testaments. We know that it is blasphemy against the Holy Ghost to teach
unrepentantly that Christians can sin and fall away, because The New Covenant of Jesus Christ
teaches that all who believe in the final finished atonement of Jesus Christ are
forgiven of all sins
past present and future, made a new creature joined with-made one with Christ
who lives in the believer with God the Father and sealed with the Holy Ghost.
Under the New Covenant God
Himself declares
that He will no more
forever keep any
record of the believers’ sins, nor any remembrance of them forever: Heb 8:12 - For I
will be merciful to
their unrighteousness, and their sins and their iniquities will
I remember no more.Heb 10:17 - And their sins and iniquities will
I remember no more.Taught
directly, absolutely
from the mouth of the Saviour Jesus Christ, Mediator, High Priest, Sower of the
New Covenant: Mat
7:18 - A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit.Incorruption
of the believer confirmed: Scripture interprets and proves scripture: 1Jo
3:9 - Whosoever is
born of God doth not commit sin; for his seed remaineth in him: and he cannot sin, because he
is born of God.By seed this means Jesus Christ is the
seed.The seed, again meaning Jesus Christ Himself, who is incorruptible and
lives in every believer with God the Father and sealed by the Holy Ghost who
also lives in the believer.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.Anyone
who unrepentantly teaches the lie that Christians can fall away is a heretic
and calling God for whom it is impossible to lie a liar. Rom 3:4 - God
forbid: yea, let God be true, but every man a
liar; as it is written, That thou mightest be justified in thy sayings, and mightest
overcome when thou art judged.The absolute eternal truth is that it is impossible for
God to lie, deceive, make mistakes or contradict Himself in any way or manner whatsoever.
Therefore the heretic commits the unpardonable sin: BLASPHEMY AGAINST THE HOLY GHOST: Mat
12:32 - And whosoever speaketh a
word against the Son of man, it shall be
forgiven him: but whosoever speaketh against the Holy Ghost, it
shall not be
forgiven him, neither in this world, neither in the world to
come. 1Jo
5:10 - He
that believeth on the Son of
God hath the witness in himself: he
that believeth not God hath made him a
liar; because he believeth not the record that God gave of his Son.
Thank
God we believe and have His record of His Son Jesus: Heb
9:12 - Neither by the blood of
goats and calves, but by his own blood he entered
in once into the holy place, having obtained eternal redemption for
us.Tit 3:10 - A
man that is an heretick after the first and second admonition reject;
Tit 3:11 - Knowing that he
that is such is subverted, and sinneth, being condemned
of himself.The agenda of the heretic who is evil in perverting scripture is to
turn people away from God by in vain trying to undermine the eternal truth,
power and authority of the New Covenant established forever through the sinless
Blood of Jesus Christ. God never condemns His people. God condemns the heretic
liar who is an unrepentant unbeliever: Jhn
3:18 - He
that believeth on him is not condemned: but he
that believeth not is
condemned already, because he
hath not believed in the name of the only
begotten Son of God. Anyone
unrepentantly claiming to have found scriptures that contradict the promises of
the eternal truth and Blood of the New Covenant is of the devil, because it is
absolutely impossible for God to lie, deceive, make mistakes or contradict
Himself.The
bottom line is that Lord Jesus defends His gospel teaching us that anyone
claiming to be saved who falls away shows proof positive that he came not from
God, but from the devil in the first place: Mat
13:38 - The field is the world; the good seed are the children of
the kingdom; but the tares are the children of
the wicked one; Mat
13:39 - The enemy that sowed them is the devil; the harvest is the
end of the world; and the reapers are the
angels. Mat
13:40 - As therefore the tares are gathered and burned in
the fire; so shall it be in the end of this world.
Mat 13:41 - The Son of
man shall send forth his angels, and they shall gather out
of his kingdom all things that offend, an d them
which do iniquity; Mat 13:42 - And shall
cast them into a furnace of fire: there shall
be wailing and gnashing of teeth.Mat 13:43 - Then shall the righteous shine
forth as the sun in the kingdom of their Father. Who hath ears to
hear, let him hear. love and truth forever, serola

THE NEW COVENANT TEACHES CHRISTIANS CANT LOSE THEIR SALVATION
Brothers
and sisters, thanks be to God that He has given us His Word so that we can know
and understand the absolute truth and great love that He has given us through
the atonement of His Son, Jesus Christ God the Son of God with invincible
power. I love you so much, thankful to have met some of you during times I have
been witnessing, and thank God for your patience with me as we dine together at
the Lords table. I thank God for your intercessory prayers and pray often for
you, dearly beloveds that your faith shall stand unwavering through the
understanding and knowledge of God so that rivers of living water shall flow
out of your bellies and that when you speak, your words with authority shall flow
out and be even as the oracles of God: Jhn 7:38 - He
that believeth on me, as the scripture hath said, out
of his belly shall
flow rivers of living water.1Pe 4:11 - If any
man speak, let him speak as the oracles of God; if any
man minister, let him do it as of the ability which God giveth: that God in all
things may be glorified through Jesus Christ, to
whom be praise and dominion for ever and
ever. Amen. Lord Jesus keep us your people in remembrance that we are in
the world but not of this present evil world. Through faith in you and the will of God our Father we are made even
according to scripture: 1Co 3:16 - Know
ye not that ye are the temple of God, and that the Spirit of
God dwelleth in you?1Co 3:17 - If any
man defile the temple of
God, him shall God destroy; for the temple of
God is holy, which temple ye are.
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.
Brothers and sisters, when we study evil, the devil, Judas Iscariot who
betrayed Jesus, or evil people in general, invariably some teach in error that those
who were once saved can lose their salvation by deliberately turning away,
rejecting God. This false interpretation comes up amongst believers due to faulty-
misinterpretation of scripture, failure to understand the New Covenant of Jesus
Christ within the context of both covenants and the scriptures as a whole or
just plain ignorance due to lack of teaching. However, we know that the righteous
will believe the truth/receive correction, but the wicked never will, no matter
how long or often they hear the truth. Whether
or not a Christian can lose their salvation can only be answered by the
scriptures from the standpoint of faith. God commands His people to be
faithful: 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.Those
who come to God are commanded by Him to believe the eternal inerrant truth that it is impossible For God to
lie, deceive, make mistakes, or contradict Himself.The
scriptures alone can and will correctly conclude and without contradiction answer the question
whether or not a Christian can lose their salvation. We know that throughout the whole of scripture God
defines the natural world as temporal or temporary. God defines His Kingdom-the
kingdom of God as eternal, everlasting, and unshakeable throughout the whole of
scripture. We know that there is not one word in the whole of scripture that defines or
characterizes the kingdom of God as temporary in any manner or way whatsoever.ALL
the promises of God are yea and amen, not maybe: 2Co 1:20 - For all the promises of
God in him are yea, and in him Amen, unto the
glory of God by us. Therefore, according to the New Covenant of
Jesus Christ: … I will forgive their
iniquity, and I will remember their sin no more. Isa 43:25 - I, even I, am he that
blotteth out thy
transgressions for mine own sake, and will not remember thy
sins.Jer 31:34 - And they
shall teach no more every man his neighbour, and every
man his brother, saying, Know the
LORD: for they shall all know me, from the least of
them unto the greatest of them, saith the
LORD: for I will forgive their
iniquity, and I will remember their sin no more. Isa 43:25 - I, even I, am he that
blotteth out thy
transgressions for mine own sake, and will not remember thy sins. Psa 103:11 - For as the
heaven is high above the earth, so great is
his mercy toward them that fear him.Psa 103:12 - As far as the
east is from the west, so far hath he
removed our transgressions from us. Mic 7:19 - He will turn
again, he will have compassion upon us; he will subdue our
iniquities; and thou wilt cast all their sins into the depths of
the sea.Heb 10:17 - And their sins and iniquities will
I remember no more.
Through faith in Jesus Christ the spiritually dead believer is
born- again spiritually alive forever, made one in Him and sealed by the Holy
Ghost. There is no biblical teachings, not even one word in the Bible that
states the born-again believer can be separated from God or made unborn. The
Bible clearly teaches that nothing can separate the believer from God and no
man or creature can pluck the believer from His hand. There is only one sin
that is unforgiveable by God: When any person unrepentantly
refuses to believe the truth of God that person is calling the God for whom it
is impossible to lie, a liar. This is the unpardonable sin- BLASPHEMY AGAINST
THE HOLY GHOST: Mat 12:32 - And whosoever speaketh a
word against the Son of man, it shall be
forgiven him: but whosoever speaketh against the Holy Ghost, it
shall not be
forgiven him, neither in this world, neither in the world to
come. No born again believer can ever
commit this sin:God
anointed and Sealed Lord Jesus and God anoints and seals all believers forever Jhn 6:27; 2Co 1:21-24. All believers have eternal salvation and
eternal life. Again, there is not one word in the Bible that refers to eternal
salvation or eternal life as temporal or temporary. Temporal or temporary in
the Bible refers solely to the natural world never to the kingdom of God which
is referred to as eternal throughout the whole of scripture.Jesus
is absolute, exhaustive/explicit in His teaching: Jesus is the Sower, who only
sows good seed: Mat
13:37-43, Mat 7:18- A
good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can a
corrupt tree bring forth good fruit. 1Jo 3:5 - And ye
know that he was manifested to take
away our sins; and in him is no sin. 1Jo 3:5 - And ye
know that he was manifested to take away our sins; and in him is no sin. 1Jo 3:9 - Whosoever is
born of God doth not commit
sin; for his seed remaineth in him: and he
cannot sin, because he is born of God.By seed this
means Jesus
Christ is the seed.The
seed, again meaning Jesus Christ Himself, who is incorruptible and lives in every believer
with God the Father and sealed by the Holy Ghost who also lives in the believer:Col 1:13 - Who hath delivered us from the power of
darkness, and hath translated us into the kingdom of
his dear Son: Col 1:14 - In whom we have redemption through his blood, even the forgiveness of
sins: Eph 4:30 - And grieve not the holy Spirit of
God, whereby ye are sealed unto the day of redemption.Heb 10:18 - Now where remission of
these is, there is no more offering for sin. Jde 1:24 - Now unto him that is able to keep you from falling, and to
present you faultless before
the presence of his glory with exceeding joy, We
know from scripture that God is in control and never permits anyone claiming to
be His to run amok sinning without repentance, doing and living whatever way
they want in opposition to His commands:
God is calling all men to Him, no one is arbitrarily left out: 2Pe 3:9 - The Lord is not slack concerning
his promise, as some men count slackness; but is
longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that
all should come to repentance.God
tries, proves, tests and lovingly disciplines all that come to Him: Heb 12:7 - If ye
endure chastening, God dealeth with you as with
sons; for what son is he whom the
father chasteneth not? 1Co 11:32 - But when we
are judged, we are chastened of the Lord, that we should not be
condemned with the world.Heb 12:8 - But if ye
be without chastisement, whereof all are partakers, then are
ye bastards, and not sons.
Reference here Jesus’ parable: Mat 13:47-50.
Some believe in error that these following verses teach the born-again believer
can fall away and we shall look at some of them within the context of the whole
of scripture: Mat 24:12 - And because iniquity shall
abound, the love of many shall wax cold. This verse is
about unbelievers in the world. This is the fruit that only Christians bear: Gal 5:22 - But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith,
2Ti
1:7;Mar 13:13 - And ye shall be hated of all men for my name's sake: but he that shall endure unto the end, the
same shall be saved. Believers correctly interpret this as
a promise and assurance that they shall endure and be saved unto the end. To
the unbeliever, or ignorant, it is a threat which they in error interpret that
somehow on their own they have to struggle to stay saved unto the end.Heb
6:4 - For it is impossible for those who were
once enlightened, and have tasted of the heavenly gift, and were
made partakers of the Holy Ghost, Heb 6:5 - And have
tasted the good word of God, and the powers of
the world to come,Heb 6:6 - If they
shall fall away, to renew them again unto repentance; seeing
they crucify to themselves the Son of God afresh, and put him to
an open shame.Heb
6:7 - For the earth which drinketh in the
rain that cometh oft upon it, and bringeth
forth herbs meet for
them by whom it is dressed, receiveth blessing from God:Heb 6:8 - But that which beareth thorns and briers is rejected, and is nigh unto
cursing; whose end is to be burned.The
scriptures never teaches that Christians can turn away from God and end up in
hell. It clearly shows the difference between the Good and the evil after
understanding the scriptures is evidenced in the fruit each bear. The scriptures
cannot be broken, scripture interprets scripture: Mat 7:18 - A good tree cannot bring
forth evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree bring
forth good fruit.Mat 7:19 - Every tree that
bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the
fire.Mat 7:20 - Wherefore by their fruits ye
shall know them.All
the promises of God are yes and Amen. The new creation has the mind of Christ, is
sealed by the Holy Ghost and obeys God out of love and trust in Him not fear of
punishment. We know there are those who claim in error that through their
personal experience that they know someone or people who were once devout
Christians who fell away, or that the Bible teaches an authentic Christian can
fall away. However, the Bible is of no private interpretation.Mat 12:36 - But I say unto
you, That every idle word that men shall speak, they shall give account thereof in the
day of judgment.Mat 12:37 - For by thy words thou shalt be justified, and by thy words thou shalt be condemned.We know
and God makes it absolutely clear, His commands are commands not suggestions,
optional, nor polite requests. We know, saints (G40 hagios), the kingdom of God
is a theocracy fully under God’s control, not a democracy open to the will and
rule of mere men. God
commands that the whole gospel be believed without exception, and accepts
no in betweeners, half in and half outers-those believing a part but never the
whole gospel of Jesus Christ. Ecumenism is forbidden by God as well as
fellowship with any who unrepentantly rejects the whole of scripture.COME OUT FROM
AMONGST THEM: Co 6:14 - Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for what fellowship hath
righteousness with unrighteousness? and what communion hath
light with darkness? 2Co 6:15 - And what concord hath
Christ with Belial? or what part hath he that
believeth with an infidel?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.2Co 6:17 - Wherefore come
out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord, and touch not the
unclean thing; and I will receive you,2Co 6:18 - And will be a
Father unto you, and ye shall
be my sons and daughters, saith the
Lord Almighty. love and truth forever, serola
