God's Grace isn't a licence to sin


God's Grace isn't a licence to sin There is a terrible wicked teaching in today's accepted Christianity that actually turns the true Jesus Christ and His True Grace away from sinners!

Today's professed Christianity has turned the teaching about God's grace into lasciviousness, which in reality gives its members through deception permission to continue to commit sin without shame or sorrow. This wicked teaching creates a false grace that permits sinners after baptism to continue in their sins, Jude 4.
These opening statements is about a false grace that is commonly taught and accepted in the world's Christianity. First, this is a grace that is believed to be given by Christ, based on no shame or no sorrow of one's sins, and no sense of obligation to Christ's command to repent of breaking God's 10 commandments, by changing one's heart and conduct to obey God's law. These church people believe, that there is no law keeping needed in order to be accepted by Christ for justification, and to receive His true grace and salvation. This is the worldwide believed and accepted false Grace, a grace given to sin. These teachers and church going people completely rule out the new covenant that states that God's law must be written in their hearts and minds, Heb. 8:10.

Secondly, There is yet another deception of this false grace given to sin, that is taught by other groups of people known as the Churches of God, and Churches of Christ, who believe they have received grace but it is a grace given as the unmerited or undeserving favor from God. In other words, they believe that God's grace is given to them, not based on anything they can do to merit or deserve His favor. This means that a sinner's repentance followed with the fruit of his obedience to God's law, the 10 commandments, along with his faith in Jesus Christ as savior are not merits deserving of God's approval. Yet repentance is one of the hardest and most difficult things for a sinner to do. Neither do these false teachers believe a believer's obedience to God's 10 commandments and faith in Jesus Christ are attributes of merit deserving God's approval and favor.

These false teachers believe there is nothing sinners can do or need to do for merit, or good works and deeds to be deserving of God's approval to receive forgiveness and His Grace, even though Scripture teaches to the contrary. But then people don't follow Scripture for their salvation. The disciples asked the question in Acts 2:37-38 after hearing the gospel message, "---Men and brethren what shall we do?" This was followed with the answer. In verse 38, "Then Peter said into them, repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sin, and you shall receive the gift of the Holy Spirit." Study also Rom. 2:13.

These false teachers and pastors also believe that a repentant sinner could never grow to maturity, perfection, or total completeness without sin, without spot or blemish, even with Christ living in them through His power and grace that would help prevent them from continuing to be sinners. They believe that they will continue to sin, live in darkness, as long as they are living in the flesh. This is denyng God's Spirit and denying that Jesus Christ is living in them through His Spirit. They believe they will continue to break God's commandments, and that it is impossible for Christ to live in them without breaking His commandments, and by this false grace, are denying the power of God and His magnificent grace that should be dwelling in them, if they have truly repented.

So by accepting this grace to sin, they believe they receive God's grace, even though it is a grace of the flesh of human power that has none of God's Power to help them to stopping sinning and so they will continue to sin, continue to break God's Ten Commandments, until they believe they will be changed to spirit at the resurrection. This is their belief and it is deception. They base their belief and understanding on their false interpreting of such Scriptures as Rom. 7:1-25, Rom. 14:1-23, Eph. 2:8, I John 1:5-10 and other such Scriptures. If these church people believe this about God's Grace and that Christ's Word teaches this, that a Christ filled person is both a saint and a sinner, then they must ask the question of just how do they differ from the common sinner on the streets, who confess they are sinners and not saints?

This false grace of today's Christianity, and this false grace that permits sin in all the professing Christian churches by its lack of power to overcome sin, are the twin heads of the same beast of a terrible, soul-destroying, abomination of deception that is flowing out from the synagogues of Satan, called Christian churches. This false teaching about Grace has become main stream, Christian deception, and a stumbling block to the people of professing Christian Churches of God, that hinders spiritual conversion.

People who don't study God's Word and are not proving all things, are willingly submitting themselves to religious deception and confusion by the way of their ministers. They are giving their minds over to their minister, his lawless tapes and books and deceptive messages, rather than studying God's Word, to really see what it says about grace, in regard to salvation and are like sheep being led to the slaughter. WOE BE UNTO PREACHERS and to their flocks, who are turning the grace of God to sin and lasciviousness, meaning no obligation to obey God and His law. This is along with a false teaching of all the professing Christian Churches of God, that a sinner cannot become a non-sinning saint. All of this denys Christ's power, and does despite to the spirit of God's grace, Jude 4, 10, 16, I Peter 4:17-18, Gal. 2:17-18, Heb. 10:26-29. God says in Heb. 10:26 "For if you continue to sin wilfully after receiving the knowlege of the truth there remains no more sacrifice for sin."

Grace, as it is believed and received today by mainstream religion, is taught as being a no-fault or nothing one has to do "to receive His grace," a grace of God's unmerited or undeserved favor, a grace that nothing can be done to please and to receive God's pleasing favor. This watered down grace, or grace to sin, appeals greatly to people's iniquitous ways, lawless nature, shameless conduct, guilt-free living, sinful but free of law-keeping lifestyles, whereas, man is the god over his own life. This "grace to sin" is a product of Satan and man's human nature, which is the fruit of eating from the knowledge of the "tree of good and evil," that God commanded man not to eat. This is forbidden fruit that is pleasing to man's eyes. It is the way of death and destruction, and nobody seemingly questions its path of destruction all because of its wide spread teaching, acceptance and fruit, that appears to look good and desirable to man. There is a way that seems right (good), but will end in death, Pro. 14:12.

This false, grace teaching which is a grace given to sin, has been accepted by today's Christianity- -lock, stock and barrel, and is being accepted by numbers of people in the Churches, professing to know Jesus Christ, as being the way of God's grace. The worst part of this teaching is that it sears people's consciences against real repentance, and people through this teaching, cannot recognize a need to grow in God's grace, and this leaves them unable to really think for themselves about their life and understanding Christ's true Gospel. This "grace to sin" is a deeply entrenched doctrine of Satan, and is in all of Christianity, Mat. 7:21-23, that will carry its believers not to life, but to their death, Romans 6:23. Today's grace as it is taught, is not amazing grace, but amazing deception, a soul-destroying error, giving license to sin, based on a false repentance, or no repentance, that is perpetuated by Satan's spirit and his church's influence, not by God's Holy Spirit.

These ministers and teachers have made The Ten Commandments of God of no affect by this false grace, because it gives church people permission to sin to either break, water down or compromise any one or all of God's commandments, without shame or remorse. This false teaching has been established as accepted tradition, and accepted teaching among professed Christian people of today's Christian community, Mat. 15:3-9. The penalty for sin (breaking God's Commandments) is death-eternal death. Christ's giving of His life fulfilled that judgment of death for anyone breaking God's law, and for everyone who believes and accepts this in faith, as His good news. This good news is for every sinner who repents and asks for forgiveness of breaking God's law, meaning the breaking of any one of His Ten Commandments and accepts in faith Christ's sacrifice.

Christ then grants to that person forgiveness of his sins, and gives His Spirit and salvation to him. This believer now stands justified before God. The fulfillment of the penalty of the law of breaking God's commandments, has been justified by Christ's death as payment and not by anything else, and certainly not by one's commandment keeping. Commandment keeping cannot justify sin because if there could have been a law given that could justify sin, why would Jesus Christ have had to die? Gal. 3:21. Commandment keeping is required by Christ in order for Him to accept you for the remission of ones's sins, Rom. 2:13.

God's grace is His favor of mercy, forgiveness, justification, and salvation given with the gift of God's Holy Spirit, for a continual Godly influence, to help man obey God. This is all given, based on man meeting God's requirements of repentance and faith. Genuine repentance is being broken up, remorseful, contrite-crushed in spirit, over one's breaking God's Ten Commandments- His laws of love to be followed with obedience to His law. Through this repentance and faith, a sinner receives God's grace, and is converted to a whole-hearted, loving desire through the power of God's Spirit to obey God and all of His Ten Commandments. By growing in this grace, which is maturing spiritually- becoming perfect in Christ, God's Commandments will be written in the converted person's heart, and will establish the love of God in a believer's life.

This is the reason Paul said in Romans 2:12-13...." As many as have sinned in the law, shall be judged by the law and the doers of the law shall be justified." Meaning there must be repentance with a changed heart, and with a loving desire to obey God's commandments, to be accepted for God's grace. However, this repentance and obedience does not forgive your sins, only Christ's suffering and shed blood forgives one's sins--justifies one before God, which is what Paul is saying in Romans 3:20, 28...The deeds of the law does not forgive sin to make one justified, only faith in the sacrifice of Christ forgives sins, and justifies, but only is this true if one is first repentant, and desires to be a doer of the law-obeying God's Ten Commandments. If this is not taught, ministers will teach error by giving professed Christians and the Churches of God people a "grace" that gives permission to continue in sin, or as a watered down grace, that looks over the breaking or compromising God's commandments.

What is the fruit of church people following this grace to sin?

This is the fruit or the sins that ministers commit in their lives, that bear the fruit of a grace given to sin. They cause the members to stumble at the law (Mal. 2:8) by their example of breaking or compromising God's commandments, by breaking God's Sabbath- by working on the Sabbath, or asking and paying someone to work for them on the Sabbath, or doing their own pleasure on God's Sabbath, which all profanes God's Sabbath. They teach church people to continue in their adultery and idolatry of serving their fornicating mates, and looking to men or minsters as their authority and masters (Mr.), and to be their spiritual leaders rather than teach brethren to look to Christ as Master, Lord and Authority in their lives. These ministers create as an image of God in their authority by the way of a church organization and fellowship, and the church's submission to it as the appointed government of God, at the expense of not worshipping the true Christ, Christ's teaching and His doctrine.

These same ministers lead people to accept minister's covetousness and covetous lifestyle, who use God's tithes hypocritically to feed themselves (stealing), and do not feed the sheep with food that is edifying, inspiring and producing spiritual growth in the body, and are not preaching the Gospel of Jesus Christ. All these sins are sins not to be questioned by the lowly sheep as members of the body of Christ. Study Malachi.

There is more: Ministers lead church members to look over their sins of fornication and adultery, divorce and remarriage, by their sanctioning of these sins professed to be with Christ's authority, and in some cases doing this by their own examples of adultery, which teaches a grace given to sin, and takes God's name in vain. Church people accept certain "special self-professed to be God's appointed spiritual leaders," and their sins of pride and they, both minister and members, gloat over it without shame, or guilt. All of this is commandment breaking, and as if that was not enough evil, they also are teaching heresies such as twisting and teaching a compromise about repentance, teaching a stop-growth or spiritual abortion concerning the born again doctrine.

They are teaching a perverted Gospel by adding to the Gospel, by saying there must be submission to church government which they add to the gospel of Christ in order for members to be saved, and they teach a false or watered down grace, creating a grace to sin, with no real change to obey God. Today's churches of professed Christians do not love God because they are not spiritually from the heart, submitting to Jesus Christ by not submitting to obedience to His Ten Commandments, I John 5:3, and are not standing up for God's commandments in their entirety, and thereby do not have Christ living in them. Many sincere "good people" who God calls His sheep, are being led to the slaughter by their pastor-goat. Woe be unto these ministers and the naive, deceived, sheep that follow such.

Is commandment keeping then necessary for receiving God's grace and for salvation? Yes, absolutely it is! It is proof of your repentance, and all the Bible proves it! If anyone is breaking or transgressing any one of God's Ten Commandments, he still has the judgment of God and His penalty of His law over one's head--this person is still under the law-- the authority of the law. If this is not true, why did Paul in I Cor. 5:1-7 correct the church, and then instruct the church to disfellowship a member who was transgressing the 7th commandment? It was to help him come to his senses and repent! Why did Paul say in I Cor. 7:19, what is really important and matters the most is the keeping of God's Commandments, meaning God's Ten Commandments. Why did Paul in writing to the churches of God in Galatia, Gal. 5:19-21, say if any of them were manifesting the works of the flesh, which were manifestations of God's Ten Commandments being transgressed, they would not be in God's Kingdom? Again, he said the same thing to the Corinthian Church, I Cor. 6:8-10. "Christian" churches today in the world, and also the Churches of God, all have form and show, but in many, many of them, they are void of God's true grace.

IF GRACE ALONE WITHOUT REPENTANCE TO GOD'S LAW IS ALL THAT IS REQUIRED, WHY DID JOHN WRITE SO MUCH ABOUT THE KEEPING OF THE TEN COMMANDMENTS? I John 5:2-3 states..." We know we love the children of God, when we keep His commandments. " If faith alone, without the obedience to God's Ten Commandments is all that is required, why did James write to the Brethren and say ...If you are transgressing any one of the Ten Commandments, any point of His royal law, you stand guilty before God and shall be judged by His law, James 2:10-11. James goes on to say that by man's works (keeping God's laws) a man is justified and not by faith only, James 2:24. If a person is breaking any one of The Ten Commandments, he is a sinner headed for God's judgment and needs to repent of breaking them, and that includes the keeping of God's 7th Day, Sabbath (Saturday) commandment, and not the keeping of man's Sunday, the 1st day of the week, Satan's counterfeit day.

ANY PREACHER THAT TEACHES THE RECEIVING OF GRACE WITHOUT REPENTANCE OF BREAKING GOD'S TEN COMMANDMENTS, HAS PUT HIMSELF IN AN ADVERSARIAL POSITION AGAINST CHRIST AND HIS WORD. Any minister teaching any compromising of any one of God's 10 commandments has become a stumbling block before Christ and His leading of His church. Any person who has followed any preacher along this wide destructive trail, will end up in the same way, in opposition to Christ at His return. WOE BE UNTO YOU BOTH, BECAUSE GOD'S LAW UNDER CHRIST, WILL JUDGE YOU GUILTY IN HIS JUDGMENT, JUDE 4, 14-16. Christ's word says, "How much worse will be the punishment-God' s judgment on all who take the blood of Christ lightly, and does despite-insult- offense, to the Spirit of God's grace," Heb. 10:29!

No Blood-No Remission!!

No Blood-No Remission!!
There are a lot of people today who try to add to the
finished work of Jesus Christ. There are those who say
that one must be baptized or join the church, or hold
out faithful to the end, in order to be saved. There
are those who get people to say they believe in Christ
and then say that they are saved. There is more to
being saved than just a simple profession. There must
be a conviction of sin and an acceptance by faith in
the shed blood of Jesus Christ. Many people are
deceived by Satan into believing that they are saved
when they are not really born again.

The Bible is clear in the fact that it is only through
faith in the shed blood of the Lord Jesus Christ, in
His complete and perfect sacrifice, that alone is the
way people are saved.

Redeemed Through Blood

As the scripture says, "...we have redemption through
His blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the
riches of his grace" (Eph. 1:7). To be redeemed means
to be bought back. The price has been paid and it is
through the blood of Jesus Christ.

Peter reminds us of this when he says, "Forasmuch as
ye know that ye were not redeemed with corruptible
things, as silver and gold... But with the precious
blood of Christ, as of a lamb without blemish and
without spot:" (1 Peter 1:18-19).

Justified by Blood

To be justified means to be declared free. We know the
Bible teaches that all are sinners. all have sinned
and come short of the glory of God, there is none
righteous, no, not one. No one deserves to be saved
because of his goodness, but thank God, Jesus Christ
died for sinners, shed His precious blood because of
His love for us. The scripture says, "Much more then,
being now justified by his blood, we shall be saved
from wrath through him." (Rom. 5:9). the word
justified literally means "just as if I had never
sinned." The blood of Jesus Christ is what has paid
for our sins.

Washed in His Blood

There are some who believe that WATER baptism washes
away sins. This is not scriptural. The Bible says,
"Unto him that loved us, and washed us from our sins
in his own blood" (Rev. 1:5). When one hears the Word,
the Holy Spirit takes the word and convicts or sin, of
righteousness, of judgment and works godly sorrow
which brings repentance and faith; faith in the shed
blood of the Lord Jesus Christ. Our sins are washed
away in His blood.

Made Nigh by Blood

Man is alienated from God, strangers from the covenant
of promise, no hope without God in the world! "But now
in Christ Jesus ye who sometimes were far off are made
nigh by the blood of Christ" (Eph. 2:13). Jesus broke
down the middle wall of partition and makes the way
possible for us to enter into the very presence of God
because He has sprinkled His blood on the mercy seat
as an atonement for our sins. Therefore, we are made
nigh by His blood.

Sanctified by Blood

The word sanctify means set apart from our sins, set
apart from the world through the blood of Jesus
Christ. As Paul says, "Wherefore Jesus also, that he
might sanctify the people with his own blood, suffered
without the gate" (Heb. 13:12). Jesus was crucified
outside the city of Jerusalem on that old hill called
Calvary in order that we might be set apart from our
sins. He shed His own blood on that cross. What can
make me whole again, nothing but the blood of Jesus?
What can wash away my sins, nothing but the blood of
Jesus? We are sanctified by His blood.

Peace through Blood

Man is at odds with God. We have sinned against Him.
We have been alienated from Him, but thank God through
the blood of Jesus Christ, we can have peace with Him.
Paul says, "And, having made peace through the blood
of his cross, by him to reconcile all things unto
himself" (Col. 1:20).

Cleansed through Blood

God's children are redeemed through the blood and
justified through the blood, washed in His blood, made
high by the blood, sanctified by the blood, and have
peace through the blood and daily we are cleansed by
the blood of Jesus. We plead the blood of Jesus. For
John says, "If we walk in the light, as he is in the
light, we have fellowship one with another, and the
blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all
sin" (1 John 1:7). In other words, we stay in
fellowship with Jesus Christ our Saviour by daily
trusting in the cleansing blood. "if we confess our
sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins,
and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness" (verse 9).
This means that the daily walk of the children of God
are cleansed by the blood of Jesus.

Conscience Purged by Blood

When one understands the real meaning of being
forgiven our sins, and having the Spirit of God living
within us as children of God, one will want to live
for Jesus. The Holy Spirit puts that desire in our
heart and Paul reminds us that it wasn't the blood of
goats and calves, but by His own blood He has obtained
eternal redemption for us and says, "how much more
shall the blood of Christ, who through the eternal
Spirit offered himself without spot to God, purge your
conscience from dead works to serve the living God?"
(Heb. 9:14).

Just think of it, Christ died for my sins. Jesus shed
His precious blood, gave His all that I might be saved
from the guilt and penalty and finally from the
presence of sin. I owe Him everything I am.

Bought with a Price

I do not belong to myself. If you are saved you do not
belong to yourself. you are bought by the precious
blood of Jesus Christ. This should, and will cause us
to want to live for Him. As Paul says, "Ye are not
your own? for ye are bought with a price: therefore
glorify God in your body, and in your spirit, which
are God's" (I Cor. 6:19-20).

What can wash away my sins, nothing but the blood of
Jesus? What can make me whole again, nothing but the
blood of Jesus? So, there is no remission outside the
blood of Jesus. You cannot mix blood and water, or
blood and church membership, or blood and works, or
any other thing, simply through faith in the blood of
Jesus Christ do we have remission of our sins. Praise
God for salvation by grace through faith in the
finished work of Christ! If you have not received Him
by faith, why not today? catcmo2006

Real Christians Do not Sin.


Real Christians Do not Sin:
We are living in the midnight hour of the last days. Paul spoke of perilous
times, when men in the Church would be ?lovers of self? . Men of influence in
the church would no longer be under the headship of Christ, but have their own
agenda and lead a multitude astray.

In the book of Revelations Jesus revealed that the last day ?visible Church?
would be as the Church of Laodicians. What began in the book of Acts as the
Church of God, 2000 years later has become the ?Church of the people?

Today much of the preaching in Churches is, void of scripture and when it is
quoted the interpretation is so abstract that most sit in pews close and seal
their Bibles and fall into the trap of following the thoughts and opinion of
men, rather than the doctrines of Christ.

The faithful studiers of God's Word are becoming an endangered species. Most
have given up the Word to become ?cassette tape junkies? followers of men, which
in turn produce the Church of the Laodicians.

God's Church was commissioned with a promise that ?the gates of Hell would not
prevail against it and to go into all the world and preach the gospel to every
creature?. The Church was called to "convert the world" but today "the world has
converted the church".

There is a religion preached today called "the New Thing" A modern Christianity
for a modern world. An enlightened religion for an enlightened people, but it is
false; it's a "Hybrid".

This "Hybrid Christianity" looks the same, it smells the same, but it cannot
produce life.

This new religion preaches the pleasures of this world rather than the pleasures
of the next world. It preaches that you can be a Christian and not give up the
world. It teaches that you can be a Christian but still continue to commit sins.
A hybrid Christianity that cannot produce life. It is false, because real
Christians do not sin.

To be truly "born again" the Bible teaches you must be "born of the Spirit"; you
must squeeze through the strait gate into the narrow way. Jesus said that ?we
must lose our lives to gain eternal life?. Surely this means nothing less than
what it says.

If you want God's blessing in this life and go to Heaven, you must repent and
give your whole life to God, and walk in His narrow way. You must not only give
up all sin, but you must also give up the world. Only on these conditions will
He come into your heart and you will know that He has accepted you. You will
know you have been "born again" from that moment on. He will take control of
your life and make you a new person. You will have the witness of the Spirit
that you are His and have victory over sin. You will have peace in your heart
and power to live a Holy life.

What kind of Church do you fellowship at? Is your Pastor or Elder a messenger of
God or a man with his own agenda ? Why don't you ask your Pastor whether "real
Christians sin" and quote 1John 3:8 and then wait for his response!

"He that commiteth sin is of the devil; for the devil sinneth from the
beginning. For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that he might destroy
the works of the devil."

The most likely response you will get will be something like this. The scripture
really says, "He that practices sin is of the devil". Meaning that if you
"habitually sin" you are of the devil.

Let me ask you - How many times did Adam ?practice sin? before he was cast out
of the garden? How many times did Lucifer "practice sin" in Heaven before he was
cast out? Tell me, how many times do you "practice lying" before you am a liar?
How many times do you "practice murder" before you are a murderer? How many
times do you "practice sin" before you am a sinner?

The answer is obvious - ONCE.

We all know that the Bible says that all liars and all murderers shall have
their part in the Lake of Fire.

Adam Clarke comments on 1John 3:8 as follows: ?He that commiteth sin is of the
devil". Hear this also, ye who plead for Baal, and cannot bear the thought of
that doctrine that states believers are to be saved from all sin in this life.
?He who commiteth sin" is a child of the devil and shows that he has still the
nature of the devil in him "for the devil sinneth from the beginning" - he was
the father of sin, brought sin into the world, and maintains sin in the world by
living in the hearts of his own children, and thus leading them to transgression
and persuading others that they cannot be saved from their sins in this life,
that he may secure a continual residence in their heart. He knows that if he has
a place there throughout eternity. ?For this purpose" For this very end, with
this very design, was Jesus manifested in the flesh "that he might destroy",
that he might loose the bonds of sin, and dissolve the power, influence, and
connection of sin.

John in his first epistle assures us that only two entities exist the Church and
the world. The Church of Jesus Christ consists of all believers who have been
taken out of the world and are standing for Christ and His word. The other is
the "world system" which we must live in, but are not to be part of because it
is under the power of Satan? ?And we know that we are of God, and the whole
world lieth in wickedness." (1John 5:19) Satan is the god of this world.
Christians live in the world but do not depend on the world.

Christian, you must die to the world before God can send you into the world.
Before you can go out and preach the Gospel, you must have the "Pentecostal
experience" whereby one is cleansed from all sin and given power to be a "living
epistle?. Obviously any church that teaches that you can sin and partake of this
world and still go to Heaven is a tool of Satan. Satan wants people to believe
that they can sin and go to Heaven. He doesn't care how many Church services you
attend or how many people you preach to, as long as you continue to sin.

Satan knows the truth that if you continue to chose to sin, you will meet him at
the judgment and make your bed with him in an eternal Hell, because sinners do
not enter a Holy Heaven. But I can hear your cry? "If we say that we have no
sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us." (1John 1:8) It is man's
pride and self-justification that causes him to misrepresent the Scripture!

Is John saying that if we sin the truth is in us? If so then the more sin we
practice, the more truth we would have? Surely this is not the case. If one
would read the preceding verse.. "But if we walk in the light, as he is in the
light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his
Son cleanseth us from all sin"...If the blood cleanses ALL sin, how much sin is
left? The confusion lies in the fact that there are two kinds of sin. One our
personal sins requiring PARDON and the other "inbred sin or carnality that
remains subsequent to regeneration that needs PURGING.

The messengers of Satan are pushing the same old 6000-year lie, "you can disobey
God yet not surely die." Adam and Eve discovered the truth in the Garden of
Eden. They practiced sin once and they were banished. The greatest of all
creation, Lucifer practical sin once and he was banished from heaven.

Any church that teaches you can sin and enjoy the world and still go to heaven
is not the church of Jesus Christ, but the church of Satan.

I receive many comments especially from "professing Christians" maybe even you
are thinking "he thinks he's better than anybody else.?

No, I don't think I'm better ?for all have sinned and come short of the glory of
God" but the Christ I serve must be eminently better for He has not only
pardoned my sins but delivered me from sin and the world.."What shall we say
then? Shall we continue in sin that grace may abound? God forbid. How shall we
that are dead to sin, live any longer therein? But now being made free from sin,
and become servants to God, ye have your fruit unto holiness, and the end
everlasting life." (Romans 6:1-2,22).

If you have not been delivered from sin and the world, you have not received the
genuine "New Birth? experience. You cannot call yourself a Christian and live
like the world.

Will you be a part of Christ's Holy Bride?

Has Jesus forgiven your sins and delivered you from sin and the world?

Did you squeeze through the strait gate on to the narrow way, the way of
Holiness without sin before the Lord? catcmo2006

THE LAW OF ADULTERY

THE LAW OF ADULTERYIn many Churches this seems to be the origin of the devil's second marriage doctrine that sends souls to hellfire .

Preachers allowing second marriage are saying, God's rule for marriage is a joke, and we have the real truth of this subject.

The second marriage doctrine sends souls to hellfire LEV 20:10 The man who commits adultery and stays with another mans wife both that man, and the woman shall be put to death, and go to hell-fire.

God is not a Pimp, or in the Pimping business.

All divorced and remarried people with a living first mate, claim that God gave them their second wife or husband are whores, and whoremongers.

When you divorce your future lack of sexual intercourse is not an interest with God.

He will not give you a new sex partner, so you will go to church, pay Him tithes, and serve Him.

MAT 19:8 Divorce entered the world with Adam, and Eve after they broke God's law.

The divorce law as the menstruation law is valid today, though a large percentage of female church members ignore both.

The New Testament divorce law from the Apostle Paul is for all men, and women regardless of a conversion to Christ Jesus.

The divorce law is a warning from a loving God to save mans eternal soul.

The divorce law when obeyed will keep church social communities free of sin, and sexual diseases.

Those ignoring the divorce law, and remarry are failures, losers, anti-Christ, and socially corrupt.

Common-law marriage known as (shacking up), is rejected by God as a legitimate marriage.

Only common people rebelling against God's laws practice Common-law marriage.

Common people in remarriage have fallen below God's uncommon standard of decency, and integrity.

Leaving a sinful sex partner is the same as circumcising your mind from its filthy lust of the flesh.

LEV 20:10 The man who commits adultery and stays with another mans wife both that man, and the woman shall be put to death, and go to hell-fire.

HEB 13:8 God does not change neighbor, he has just added grace for the penitent sex fiend by telling him to stop.

JER 23:10 The land is full of adulterers.

The sin of second marriage makes God's Holy Prophets, and Preachers shout "Do not divorce, and remarry or go to hell."

DEU 24:1, MAT 19:7 Adulterous sex maniacs harden their minds, and will not obey God.

It was a weak minded man named Moses, not God who said, "Divorce is acceptable".

MAL 2:16 No matter how plausible your reason may seem sinner God still says, "I hate putting away" or divorce.

God still hates divorce so why do you love it?

MAR 7:21 Adulteries, and divorce start first in the minds of lust crazed men, and women listening to Satan.

LUK 16:18 Whosoever puts away his wife, and marries another commits the sin of adultery.

Gods divorce prohibition for man will not get clearer than that.

MAR 10:12 A woman commits adultery when she puts away her husband, and marries another.

Second marriage makes the divorced wife a common whore.

1CO 7:11 For sex, and eternal security she must leave her second, etc. husband, and remain unmarried or be reconciled with her first husband.

If her first husband will not take her back, she must live life free from sexual intercourse until his death.

HEB 13:4 Marriage is honorable but whoremongers, and adulterers God will judge.

Sex sinners remarried hate God because He labels them as evil devils.

PRO 20:20, JOB 24:15 Sex sinners (second married) say, "I have done no wrong".

The eye of the adulterer in unforgiven waits for sunset, they say "No one will see me", wrong God does.

1CO 6:9 Adulterers will not inherit the kingdom of God.

Hell is heaven's junk yard for the remarried sex-fiends, and others in unforgiven sin.

DEU 23:2 God also has labeled children from an adulterous second marriage, or unmarried parents as bastards.

ROM 7:3 When an unconverted or converted woman marries a second time with a living mate, she is an adulteress or whore.

If her first husband dies, she is freed from the above labels, and can remarry.

A woman could live forty years with mate number two, but only when her first mate dies does God's grace release her from the curse of the divorced woman.

Not many remarried women thank God for the second mate death, as a blessing.

MAT 19:10, 1CO 7:28 Some say, "to marry is bad."

Listen Pastor, and other Instruction Ministers caught in the second marriage trap.

For you or your flock to return to God, you and they must separate from the second marriage sin in your church.

Preachers in a second marriage have no biblical loop-hole for deliverance. Only by separation from mate number two, etc. can they be saved.

2TH 2:7,10 Christ Jesus shall come in flaming fire, to take vengeance on them that know not God, and that obey not his gospel (of remarriage).

MAT 5:32 Whoever shall put away (divorce) his wife saving for fornication, (idol worshipping) causes her to commit adultery.

HOS 4:13 Sexual fornication is when UNMARRIED people engage in sexual intercourse.

1CO 5:1 A married woman having sex with an unmarried man, causes him to commit adultery not fornication.

Do not let the semantics of the divorce law detract you from its truth, and the deadly penalty of sex by divorce.

1CO 7:38 He that gives his daughter in marriage will not be damned, but he that keeps her single is wiser.

1CO 7:9 But if she must play the whore get her a husband, because fornication will damn her soul forever.

ROM 7:4 Unmarried Saints dead to the sin choose to marry Christ Jesus, and remain single.

Not once did Jesus, the Apostles or any other saint in the bible, teach that marrying twice with a living mate was acceptable with God.

1995 Edition of Jerusalem Post.

HUSBAND JAILED 32 YEARS, FOR REFUSING TO DIVORCE HIS WIFE, DIES.
This man who spent 32 years in prison for refusing to divorce his wife, has gone to his grave without changing his mind.
Yehia Avraham died in 1995 at age 80, obeying Gods marriage law.

Ora frequently declared her hatred for her husband, in the decades she spent trying to divorce him.

Mrs. Avraham filed for divorce in 1955, but her husband, an Orthodox Jew refused.

Yehia Avraham, age 80, died obeying God's law by not divorcing her.

Would you to the same for God?

In today?s lifestyle of free sex, divorce rates are skyrocketing, the death of this GREAT MAN Yehia Avraham is hardly noticed.

Think of the joy our LORD got from the testimony of Yehia's life.

His refusal to obey Satan saved not only him, but his hateful wife from the sin of remarriage.

The tiny land of Israel, where God wanted no divorce, has tens of thousands of divorce yearly.

The true meaning of being BORN AGAIN

The true meaning of being BORN AGAIN JESUS ANSWERED, VERILY, VERILY, I SAY UNTO THEE, EXCEPT A MAN BE BORN OF WATER AND OF THE SPIRIT, HE CANNOT ENTER INTO THE KINGDOM OF GOD-Jn 3:5.
Note in 1 Jn 5:6,8-THIS IS HE THAT CAME BY WATER AND BLOOD, EVEN JESUS CHRIST?AND THERE ARE THREE THAT BEAR WITNESS IN EARTH, THE SPIRIT, AND THE WATER, AND THE BLOOD: AND THESE THREE AGREE IN ONE. Again, Jesus makes it clear. A new birth must take place; indeed, born of water and of the Spirit. Jn 3:6-THAT WHICH IS BORN OF THE FLESH IS FLESH; AND THAT WHICH IS BORN OF THE SPIRIT IS SPIRIT. Clearly, Jesus is showing us that there are two births. The first birth is of the flesh. This is what we call our birthday. Yet a second birth must take place, or we cannot see the kingdom of heaven.

The Scriptures show us in Mt 7:22-MANY WILL SAY TO ME IN THAT DAY, LORD, LORD, HAVE WE NOT PROPHESIED IN THY NAME? AND IN THY NAME HAVE CAST OUT DEVILS? AND IN THY NAME DONE MANY WONDERFUL WORKS? All these people seem to think they are saved or (if you will) born-again. How many are there? It seems to indicate: many, many, many. God?s Word shows us there is yet another condition on entering heaven. Mt 7:21-NOT EVERY ONE THAT SAITH UNTO ME LORD, LORD, (not everyone that calls on the Lord) SHALL ENTER INTO THE KINGDOM OF HEAVEN; BUT HE THAT DOETH THE WILL OF MY FATHER WHICH IS IN HEAVEN. Thus, there must be a time in our life when we decide to stop doing our own will, and we start doing the will of God. There must be a time in our life when we repent. There must be a time in our life when we are born of the spirit or born-again. So how many are truly born-again and enter heaven? Mt 7:14- FEW THERE BE THAT FIND IT. Jesus tells us many, many, many, people think they are saved; yet only a few really are. Only a few deny themselves, and pick up their cross, and follow Jesus. Only a few have fruits that reflect a life of doing the will of God. In Mt 7:13, we see that many go to destruction. Thus, in one chapter alone, God?s Word clearly shows us that many people will perish. God said unto many, I NEVER KNEW YOU: DEPART FROM ME YE THAT WORK INIQUITY-ref Mt 7:21-23. Again, we see in Mt 7:13, that many enter a wide gate and broad way, but it leads to destruction, to hell. The way of eternal life is a strait gate and narrow way. FEW THERE BE THAT FIND IT-Mt 7:14. Gal 4:27-THE DESOLATE HATH MANY MORE CHILDREN THAN SHE WHICH HATH AN HUSBAND. There are many more followers of Satan, than there are followers of Jesus.
Can you hear? Jesus said these words in Mt 18:3-EXCEPT YE BE CONVERTED, AND BECOME AS LITTLE CHILDREN, YE SHALL NOT ENTER INTO THE KINGDOM OF HEAVEN. Thus we have another condition on entering heaven. You (1) must be converted, and (2) you must become as little children. When you are born the second time, born of the Spirit, a conversion takes place in your attitude. By faith you begin to overcome all things. Your attitude changes. You begin to love the Word of God. You begin to hate sin and every evil way. You become converted from doing your will, to doing the will of God, and you must become as little children. In other words, your attitude must become childlike. You begin receiving correction as a little child from the Word of God. You quit striving about the Word of God. You quit being contentious regarding the Word of God, and receive God?s Word in a humble, meek, childlike attitude. You begin to let Jesus reign over you. Whatever you do should be compared with the Word of God. Few people will allow God?s Word to reign over them. They want their own way. They perish. You must be born-again. You must be converted. You must become as a little child, who receives correction from his parents gladly and willingly. You must do God?s will, or perish.
Some incorrectly think "to be converted" means to convert from (not believing in Jesus) to (believing in Jesus). Many believe in Jesus in their thoughts or mind, but they do not trust in Him or believe and trust in all the Bible. He is in their head but not in their heart. They know "of Him" but they do not personally "know Him." They are at best only lukewarm. They have little or no true commitment to Jesus.
Some may think it is being converted from something like Hinduism to Christianity. Wrong. Being converted is putting off the old man and putting on the new man. Many people profess that they are Christians, but they have never been converted to the new man. Many will perish at the judgment, perhaps claiming these words, "I am a Christian."
Just saying you are a Christian does not save you or convert you or cause you to be born-again.
When a person truly becomes converted there should be evidence of good fruit coming forth that is in harmony with the Gospel and a childlikeness toward receiving correction from the Word of God.
Acts 3:19-REPENT YE THEREFORE, AND BE CONVERTED, THAT YOUR SINS MAY BE BLOTTED OUT, WHEN THE TIMES OF REFRESHING SHALL COME FROM THE PRESENCE OF THE LORD. Note, it says REPENT?AND BE CONVERTED. There is no conversion without repentance. Many name the name of Jesus and confess He is their Lord and Savior, but they have never repented of their sins. They have never
repented of doing their own will. Grace does not reign through sin. Repentance leads to conversion.
Jn 1:12,13-BUT AS MANY AS RECEIVED HIM, TO THEM GAVE HE POWER TO BECOME THE SONS OF GOD, EVEN TO THEM THAT BELIEVE ON HIS NAME. Note, it did not say "accept Him" but rather "receive Him." We may define the word "believe", as a total uncompromising commitment of love, submission, obedience, and trust. Repent and receive Jesus Christ. Without repentance and without Jesus Christ, you are still in your sins. Verse13-WHICH WERE BORN, NOT OF BLOOD, NOR OF THE WILL OF THE FLESH, NOR THE WILL OF MAN, BUT OF GOD. Have you really been born-again?
1 Pe 1:23-BEING BORN AGAIN, NOT OF CORRUPTIBLE SEED, BUT OF INCORRUPTIBLE, BY THE WORD OF GOD, WHICH LIVETH AND ABIDETH FOREVER. Again, we see a new birth comes from the "Word of God, which liveth." Jesus is the Word of God-ref Jn 1:1,14. Jesus lives.
1 Jn 2:29-IF YE KNOW THAT HE IS RIGHTEOUS, YE KNOW THAT EVERY ONE THAT DOETH RIGHTEOUSNESS IS BORN OF HIM. Again, we see a new birth takes place. You must be born-again. Note the first part of this verse, "IF YE KNOW THAT HE IS RIGHTEOUS." Many people do not know that God is righteous. Neither do they understand the judgments of a righteous God. Know this, GOD IS GREATLY TO BE FEARED IN THE ASSEMBLY OF THE SAINTS-Ps 89:7.
1 Jn 3:8-10-HE THAT COMMITTETH SIN IS OF THE DEVIL: FOR THE DEVIL SINNETH FROM THE BEGINNING. FOR THIS PURPOSE THE SON OF GOD WAS MANIFESTED, THAT HE MIGHT DESTROY THE WORKS OF THE DEVIL. 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. IN THIS THE CHILDREN OF GOD ARE MANIFEST (OR MADE KNOWN), AND THE CHILDREN OF THE DEVIL: WHOSOEVER DOETH NOT RIGHTEOUSNESS IS NOT OF GOD, NEITHER HE THAT LOVETH NOT HIS BROTHER. Again, we see the new birth twice. If you are living in sin, you are not born of God. If you are not doing God?s will, that which is right in the eyes of God, you are not of God. You are not born-again. You are not saved. If you do not love your brother, you are not of God. Does your fruit testify you are of God or of the devil?
1 Jn 5:18-WE KNOW. Note these words, "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.
1 Jn 5:17-ALL UNRIGHTEOUSNESS IS SIN. Again, we see the words: BORN OF GOD. A new birth must take place in your life. We know by a person's fruits, if they are born of God.
1 Pe 2:2-AS NEWBORN BABES, DESIRE (or crave or cry for) THE SINCERE "MILK OF THE WORD" THAT YE MAY GROW THEREBY: Verse 3-IF SO BE YE HAVE TASTED THAT THE LORD IS GRACIOUS. Again, we see a new birth taking place. We also see that those who are a newborn babe, who have tasted that the Lord is gracious: they desire, they crave, they cry for, they want, they seek God?s Word, just as a newborn baby cries out for milk. In the same way, the newborn Christian desires and craves the sincere milk of the Word. He doesn?t desire vain jangling, but he desires God?s pure and holy Word. For by God?s Word, he may grow. FAITH COMETH BY HEARING AND HEARING BY THE WORD. Lots of vain jangling is pleasing to the ears of the unconverted. Vain janglings do not produce faith or help us to grow. Are you crying out for God?s Word, or do you prefer preaching that is pleasing to your flesh? In whatever church you may attend, do you know more about the preacher?s family than you do about God? Is your heart really right with God? Are you deceiving yourself? Are you truly born-again?
Mt 9:16,17-NO MAN PUTTETH A PIECE OF "NEW" CLOTH UNTO AN "OLD GARMENT," FOR THAT WHICH IS PUT IN TO FILL IT UP TAKETH FROM THE GARMENT, AND THE RENT IS MADE WORSE. NEITHER DO MEN PUT "NEW" WINE INTO OLD BOTTLES: ELSE THE BOTTLES BREAK, AND THE WINE RUNNETH OUT, AND THE BOTTLES PERISH: BUT THEY PUT NEW WINE INTO NEW BOTTLES, AND BOTH ARE PRESERVED. Lk 5:39-NO MAN ALSO HAVING DRUNK OLD WINE, STRAIGHTWAY DESIRETH NEW: FOR HE SAITH, THE OLD IS BETTER. God does not put the Holy Spirit into a person that is still living in sin. They must repent, else the rent is made worse. One does not put the Holy Spirit into someone who is an old bottle, living in their old ways and has not repented, else the wine runneth out, and the bottles perish. But the Holy Spirit is put into new bottles, that is, a sinner who has repented, and both are preserved. No man having drunk of the pleasures of sin, straightway desires new ways, (God?s ways), for he saith the old is better. Is sin deceiving you? Are your ears dull of hearing? Are your hearts waxed gross? Know this, WITHOUT HOLINESS, NO ONE WILL SEE THE LORD. You must be born-again. You must be converted. You must become as a little child before Almighty God, and have the attitude, "Not my will, but Thine be done." Are you really walking with God?
Jn 5:24-VERILY, VERILY, I SAY UNTO YOU, HE THAT HEARETH "MY" WORD, AND BELIEVETH ON HIM THAT SENT ME, HATH EVERLASTING LIFE, AND SHALL NOT COME INTO CONDEMNATION; BUT IS PASSED FROM DEATH UNTO LIFE. Again, we see the results of the new birth, that is, being passed from death unto life.
2 Cor 5:17-THEREFORE "IF" ANY MAN BE IN CHRIST (or be born-again), HE IS A NEW CREATURE: OLD THINGS ARE PASSED AWAY; BEHOLD, "ALL" THINGS ARE BECOME NEW. Many claim salvation through Jesus Christ, but the old things have never passed away. True repentance never took place. But for those few that are "in Christ", all things are become new.
Gal 6:15-FOR "IN CHRIST JESUS" NEITHER CIRCUMCISION AVAILETH ANYTHING, NOR UNCIRCUMCISION, BUT A "NEW CREATURE." The new birth produces a new creature. All things are become new. If you are not a new creature, you are not born-again. Have you been converted to a new creature?
Gal 3:26,27-FOR YE ARE ALL THE CHILDREN OF GOD BY FAITH IN CHRIST JESUS. FOR AS MANY OF YOU AS HAVE BEEN BAPTIZED INTO CHRIST "HAVE PUT ON CHRIST."
We are to repent of sin. Ro 6:1-10-WHAT SHALL WE SAY THEN? SHALL WE CONTINUE IN SIN, THAT GRACE MAY ABOUND? GOD FORBID. HOW SHALL WE, THAT ARE DEAD TO SIN, LIVE ANY LONGER THEREIN? KNOW YE NOT, THAT SO MANY OF US "AS WERE" BAPTIZED INTO JESUS CHRIST WERE BAPTIZED INTO HIS DEATH?
THEREFORE WE ARE BURIED WITH HIM BY BAPTISM INTO DEATH: THAT LIKE AS CHRIST WAS RAISED UP FROM THE DEAD BY THE GLORY OF THE FATHER, EVEN SO WE ALSO SHOULD WALK IN NEWNESS OF LIFE. FOR IF WE HAVE BEEN PLANTED "TOGETHER" IN THE LIKENESS OF "HIS" DEATH, WE SHALL BE ALSO IN THE LIKENESS OF "HIS" RESURRECTION: KNOWING THIS, THAT OUR OLD MAN IS CRUCIFIED WITH HIM, THAT THE BODY OF SIN MIGHT BE DESTROYED, THAT HENCEFORTH WE SHOULD NOT "SERVE" SIN. To be born-again means (note the words): our old man, our old ways, the way we were going, is crucified. We repent. We should not serve sin any longer. FOR HE THAT IS DEAD IS FREED FROM SIN. NOW "IF" WE BE DEAD WITH CHRIST, WE BELIEVE THAT WE SHALL ALSO LIVE WITH HIM: KNOWING THAT CHRIST BEING RAISED FROM THE DEAD DIETH NO MORE; DEATH HATH NO MORE DOMINION OVER HIM. FOR IN THAT HE DIED, HE DIED UNTO SIN ONCE: BUT IN THAT HE LIVETH HE LIVETH UNTO GOD. The new birth produces a new life that lives unto God. Very few people have had their old man crucified, and few people are living unto God. How is it then that many claim they are saved? They are claiming they are saved because of ignorance of God's Word. Their knowledge of salvation is not based on truth and examining oneself truthfully in light of the Word of God. It is based, often-times, on their emotions and the lies they hear in their head from the devil. It is sometimes based on what their preacher tells them, or someone else in the church, instead of on truth. Jesus told many people and many religious leaders, clearly, that they were not of God, but they refused to believe Him. Only after they died and perished to hell, did they understand they were wrong; but then it was too late.
Repent, and believe the Gospel. Put away deceit.
Eph 4:22-24-PUT OFF CONCERNING THE FORMER CONVERSATION, THE OLD MAN, WHICH IS CORRUPT ACCORDING TO THE "DECEITFUL LUSTS;" AND BE RENEWED IN THE SPIRIT OF YOUR MIND; AND THAT YE PUT ON THE NEW MAN, WHICH AFTER GOD IS CREATED IN RIGHTEOUSNESS AND TRUE HOLINESS. The old man (the old worldly ways) must be put off. They must be crucified. Our worldly ways are corrupt in the eyes of a holy God. Then, we must put on the new man: new ways, new thinking, living according to the Word of God. A born-again person has put off the old man, and has put on the new, because he has repented of the ways of the world, and now lives according to the ways of God. Many people may think the new Christian is "beside himself." They may think he is crazy. Relatives may disown him. Indeed, many of his friends will probably desert him, if he lives for God as he ought. He could get fired from his job. He could lose everything he has, but he will gain Christ. Are you willing to pay the price God requires of you? The spirit of your mind needs to be renewed.
Col 3:9,10-LIE NOT ONE TO ANOTHER, SEEING THAT YE HAVE PUT OFF THE OLD MAN WITH HIS DEEDS; AND HAVE PUT ON THE NEW MAN, WHICH IS RENEWED IN KNOWLEDGE AFTER THE IMAGE OF HIM THAT CREATED HIM. Again, we see put off the old man, put on the new man. We must repent from the ways of the world, the ways we have been living. We are to put on the new man, that is, God?s ways. We must be born-again. We must be converted. Our mind needs to be renewed. We need to study God?s Word diligently and be renewed in knowledge. We are to put away lying and deceit.
Eph 2:2,3-WHEREIN IN TIME PAST YE WALKED ACCORDING TO THE COURSE OF THIS WORLD, ACCORDING TO THE PRINCE OF THE POWER OF THE AIR, THE SPIRIT THAT NOW WORKETH IN THE CHILDREN OF DISOBEDIENCE: AMONG WHOM ALSO WE "ALL" HAD OUR CONVERSATION IN TIMES PAST IN THE LUSTS OF OUR FLESH, FULFILLING THE DESIRES OF THE FLESH AND OF THE MIND; AND WERE "BY NATURE" THE CHILDREN OF WRATH, EVEN AS OTHERS. Note, in times past, when we were not born-again, we walked according to the course of this world...fulfilling the desires of the flesh and of the mind. This is the way of the world. This is the way most people walk and desire to walk. However, to be born-again, we must repent, and begin walking by faith. We are to begin doing what is pleasing in the sight of God. Few people have truly denied themselves and are walking in the ways of God. Few there be. Few people are truly born-again, although many say and think they are.
Ro 12:2-BE NOT CONFORMED TO THIS WORLD: BUT BE YE TRANSFORMED BY THE RENEWING OF YOUR MIND, THAT YE MAY "PROVE" WHAT IS THAT GOOD, AND ACCEPTABLE, AND PREFECT, WILL OF GOD. We are not to walk according to the course of this world. We are not to be conformed to this world. We are to be transformed. We must be converted. We must be born-again. We must repent. We must begin to do the will of God. We must do these things, or we will surely perish. We need our mind renewed by God?s Word. We need to hear and study God?s Word, and "do it."
1 Cor 2:12-NOW WE HAVE RECEIVED NOT THE SPIRIT OF THE WORLD, BUT THE SPIRIT WHICH IS OF GOD; THAT WE MIGHT KNOW THE THINGS THAT ARE FREELY GIVEN TO US OF GOD.
1 Jn 4:13-HEREBY KNOW WE THAT WE DWELL IN HIM, AND HE IN US, BECAUSE HE HATH GIVEN US OF HIS SPIRIT.
Ro 8:9-NOW IF ANY MAN HAVE NOT THE SPIRIT OF CHRIST, HE IS NONE OF HIS. How might we know if we are following the spirit of the world, or following the Spirit of God? It is written, WHEREFORE BY THEIR FRUITS YE SHALL KNOW THEM-Mt 7:20. Note God?s Word, IF ANY MAN HAVE NOT THE SPIRIT OF CHRIST, HE IS NONE OF HIS.
2 Pe 1:4-WHEREBY ARE GIVEN UNTO US EXCEEDING GREAT AND PRECIOUS PROMISES: THAT BY THESE YE MIGHT BE PARTAKERS OF THE DIVINE NATURE, HAVING ESCAPED THE CORRUPTION THAT IS IN THE WORLD THROUGH LUST.
1 Jn 3:1-BEHOLD, WHAT MANNER OF LOVE THE FATHER HATH BESTOWED UPON US, THAT WE SHOULD BE CALLED THE SONS OF GOD: THEREFORE THE WORLD KNOWETH US NOT, BECAUSE IT KNEW HIM NOT. The world did not know or understand Jesus when He was upon the earth. They crucified Him. It is the same today. Many preach about a person named Jesus, but they do not know Him. They do not understand Him. Most today follow another Jesus, but they do not know this.
Those few people that truly follow the Jesus of the Bible and obey His Word are also not known or understood by the world, just as Jesus was not known or understood by the world.
Jesus put it this way, IF THE WORLD HATE YOU, YE KNOW THAT IT HATED ME BEFORE IT HATED YOU. 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. REMEMBER 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. BUT ALL THESE THINGS WILL THEY DO UNTO YOU FOR MY NAME'S SAKE, BECAUSE THEY KNOW NOT HIM THAT SENT ME.
IF I HAD NOT COME AND SPOKEN UNTO THEM, THEY HAD NOT HAD SIN: BUT NOW THEY HAVE NO CLOAK FOR THEIR SIN. HE THAT HATETH ME HATETH MY FATHER ALSO. IF I HAD NOT DONE AMONG THEM THE WORKS WHICH NONE OTHER MAN DID, THEY HAD NOT HAD SIN: BUT NOW HAVE THEY BOTH SEEN AND HATED BOTH ME AND MY FATHER. BUT THIS COMETH TO PASS, THAT THE WORD MIGHT BE FULFILLED THAT IS WRITTEN IN THEIR LAW, THEY HATED ME WITHOUT A CAUSE-Jn 15:18-25.
Have you repented? Have you been converted? Are you one of the majority that think they are saved, but are not? Have you become as a little child to God?s correction? Are you allowing Jesus Christ (His Word) to reign over you? Have you become a new creature? Have you been baptized into Christ, and have you been buried in the water after repentance? Do you have the answer of a good conscience before God? Has your old man been crucified? Are you living unto God? Have you put off the old man? Have you been renewed in the spirit of your mind? Have you put on the new man? Have you stopped walking according to the course of this world and the desires of your flesh and your mind? Have you been transformed? Have you been begotten of God? Do you really have God?s Spirit? Do not go by feelings. Judge yourself by the Word of God. Most "feel" they are saved, but they will perish to hell. Examine yourself by the Word of God to see if ye be in the faith.
Have you truly been born-again? It is written in Acts 2:38-REPENT, AND BE BAPTIZED EVERY ONE OF YOU. It is written in Mk 16:16-HE THAT BELIEVETH AND IS BAPTIZED SHALL BE SAVED; BUT HE THAT BELIEVETH NOT SHALL BE DAMNED. Did you at some time in the past ask Jesus to be your Savior and even get baptized, but then went back into willful sin and rebellion against God? It is written, NO ONE WHO CONTINUES TO SIN HAS EITHER SEEN HIM OR KNOWN HIM-1 Jn 3:6 NIV. Repent, and be baptized.
Have you truly been born-again and been faithful? Are you really doing the will of God or your own will?

CAN JUDGE.

WE CAN JUDGEIf judging people is wrong, how can we obey Romans
16:17-18? II Corinthians 6:17? II Timothy 3:5-6? I
John 4:1?

Lev 19:15 Ye shall do no unrighteousness in judgment:
thou shalt not respect the person of the poor, nor
honour the person of the mighty: [but] in
righteousness shalt thou judge thy neighbour.

"Judge not according to the appearance, but judge
righteous judgment." (John 7:24). Here our Lord
commands that we are to "judge righteous judgment,"
which is judgment based upon the Word of God. If
judgment is made upon any other basis, other than the
Word of God, it is a violation of Matt. 7:1. Webster's
Dictionary says that a judge is "one who declares the
law." The faithful Christian must discern of judge on
the basis of God's inspired law, the Bible.

I. It Is Right To Practice Biblical Judgment

One of the most misused verses in the Bible is, "Judge
not, that ye be not judged." (Matt. 7:1). Every
Scripture verse should be read in its context, if we
are to properly understand the true meaning. In vs.2-5
of this same chapter it is evident that v.1 is
referring to hypocritical judgment. A brother who has
a beam in his own eye should not be judging the
brother who may have a mote in his eye. The lesson is
plain, you cannot judge another for his sin if you are
guilty of the same sin. catcmo2006

YOU ARE HELL BOUND IF YOU ARE NOT FILLED WITH THE HOLY SPIRIT

YOU ARE HELL BOUND IF YOU ARE NOT FILLED WITH THE HOLY SPIRIT
Have you done what God has commanded to receive God's Holy Spirit, and if you have, are you now being led by that Spirit of God or by the flesh?

If you do not have God's Holy Spirit and are not being led by God's Holy Spirit, then don't expect to be saved, and be in the resurrection of God's saints to receive eternal life, because you are not one of Christ's saints. Rom. 8:9 "---Now if any man have not the spirit of Christ he is none of His."

There is no salvation, no eternal life, and no one to be resurrected to eternal life without having received the gift of God's Holy Spirit. In Romans 8:9 Jesus Christ says through Paul, "--- If any man have not the Spirit of Christ, he is none of His." Verse 11 also says, "The Spirit that raised Jesus from the dead will also quicken (make alive or resurrect) your mortal bodies by the Holy Spirit that dwells in you." Paul continues in verse 14, "For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God." The Scripture is very clear about receiving the Holy Spirit of God and being led by God's Spirit as being all essential for receiving salvation, and growing in God's Love, and that no one can inherit or be resurrected to eternal life without it.

The question then is, how does one receive the gift of God's Holy Spirit -- the Spirit of life with power that can influence and enable one to produce the fruit of love, joy, peace, patience, gentleness, goodness, faith, meekness, and self-control, Gal. 5:22, in their life to the point of being born of God now, (I John 4:7), and be called the son of God now, Rom. 8:14? If God's Spirit can dwell in a person that Christ says must dwell in him in order for that person to bear the fruit of His Spirit, then that person should want to know how he can receive God's Holy Spirit to be assured of eternal life in God's Kingdom, and to know without any question that he will be in that first resurrection.

In today's professed Christian world there are millions of confessed Christians who believe they have received the Holy Spirit of God, but who have instead received an unholy spirit through the worship of a false christ that has been raised up in their church. This is true because today's Christians have never done what they need to do to receive the Holy Spirit of God through the teachings of the real and true Jesus Christ.

Jesus Christ was "SENT TO BLESS PEOPLE IN TURNING EVERYONE FROM HIS SINS," Acts 3:26. This is not turning everyone to a way to continue in their sins as is widely taught through the false spirits of today's worshipped false christs, but turning the heart of a sinner from sin, to a heart that desires to obey God's commandments, which is the fruit of true repentance. This repentance of one's sins must take place in order for Jesus Christ to accept a person for His Grace, which is God's favor granted to receive Christ's forgiveness of a person's sins, and to be granted the gift of God's Holy Spirit, and the gift of salvation. People desirous of eternal life are commanded to repent, which is the changing of the heart from sin, I John 3:4, to obedience to God's law to be converted in their mind and heart.

Conversion changes the heart and mind from fleshly mindedness to spiritual mindedness, which can only be done through the help of God's Spirit working in a heart that greatly desires to be obedient to God's spiritual law of love, which are His 10 commandments. This repentance and becoming converted, all must be carried out that your sins may be blotted out, Acts 3:19.

Acts 3:19 says "Repent you therefore, and be converted that your sins mey be blotted out, when the times of refreshing shall come from the presence of the Lord."
Any sinner that repents of his sins (breaking God's law), must change his sinful behavior to be accepted by Jesus Christ. The sinner then is commanded to be baptized in the Name of Jesus Christ, and must in FAITH believe and accept Christ's sacrifice to justify his sins. Upon these actions and works he can be assured by God's promise that he will be forgiven of his sins, and will by God's promise receive the gift of God's Holy Spirit, through the laying on of hands, Acts 2:38, Acts 8:17, 19:6.

Jesus Christ does command a sinner's repentance and obedience to God's law, to be doers of His 10 commandments as requirements of His Gospel in order to be accepted for His forgiveness and to be justified by Him, Rom. 2:13. Please read this sentence again, because people reading our articles and due to their lack of God's Spirit in them to give them spiritual understanding, believe this writer is preaching that the keeping of the commandments is what forgives a person and justifies his sins. No where can anyone find in any of our articles where we preach and teach that the keeping of God's 10 commandments is what forgives and justifies one's sins. Yet people continue to write us telling us that this is what we are teaching, which is a lie and accusing us falsely. Jesus Christ warns about the fate and judgment coming to such accusing people in II Peter 2:9-12.

However, this writer does teach that there must be a repentance of breaking God's 10 commandments and obedience to the keeping of God's commandments in order for Jesus Christ to accept you for His forgiveness, His justification of your sins and giving you the gifts of His Holy Spirit and salvation. This verse 13 in Rom. 2 is never quoted by all the false teachers in their teaching of error about God's Grace. They teach contrary to God's Word, that the doing of the law is not required to be accepted by Jesus Christ. Paul clearly says in verse 13, "For not the hearers of the law are just before God, but the doers of the law shall be justified." Paul here makes it emphatically clear it is the doers of the law, meaning the keepers of God's 10 commandments, who Jesus Christ will accept for His Grace, forgiveness and justification of one's sins.

The gift of God's Holy Spirit is given as a token of the power and influence from God to a repentant person, that will enable that person to become totally converted so he can worship God in spirit and truth, John 4:24. This enabling power will help one to obey His law in its true spiritual intent, and will instruct that person to see the need to live and be led daily by the power of God's Holy Spirit.

To worship God in spirit and truth is to obey all ten, (not just nine) of His commandments. This is exercising our love to God with all one's heart, and is exercising one's love to one's neighbor and loving them as we should love ourselves, Mat. 22:37-40. This is also exercising one's faith to believe that God knows what is all important in one's life, and a person will trust Him in all of His promises, and in all He commands, Gal. 5:14-21-25, II Pet. 1:1-4, Heb. 11:13, John 15:10. This can only be accomplished through the power of God's indwelling, authentic, Holy Spirit working in true believers which all of today's professing Christianity denies and rejects because of their having accepting one of or many of the false spirits in today's accepted false Christianity.

Today's false Christianity in reality denies having receiving God's Spirit and power by teaching and admitting that they, as professed Christians, cannot keep God's commandments and that no one can receive enough power through the gift of God's Spirit to obey the ten commandments. They say and teach this in order to justify their sins of disobedience and their denying and lacking God's Spirit of power to do so, so they go about teaching that Christians are not required to obey God's commandments, to be accepted by Christ.

This is not only a total rejection of Jesus Christ as one's Savior, it is an out and out, clear denial of the power, influence, and possession of God's Holy Spirit dwelling in their life, II Tim. 3:5. They know that the false spirit that they have received from Satan cannot help them keep God's commandments, because it has come from Satan, so they will put down anyone that is righteous, who keeps and teaches the keeping of God's commandments and call them a legalist and a Pharisee. They know neither the meaning of legalist or the works of a Pharisee. God through Timothy has foretold that this would be the way it would be, that today's professed Christians "would have a form of Christianity, but deny the power thereof: from such turn away." But today's confessing Christians and their false ministers are content in their warm cocoon of a church fellowship of sin and don't want to be disturbed!

This false, lying teaching of today's Christian preachers that no commandment keeping is necessary to be accepted for Christ's grace is from Satan, himself, John 8:43-47, and is an affront and hatred against Jesus Christ, His message, His death and His shed blood, and the purpose of Him giving God's Holy Spirit. This also is making manifest who are the seed of Satan, the devil and who are truly of Jesus Christ, I John 3:8-10. This heresy and false, lying teaching is an open acknowledgment and confession that they, "today's Christians," do not have God's Holy Spirit dwelling in them, and cannot know and even recognize its power and fruit in others, nor do they know how one receives God's Spirit.

These false Christians are not converted to true Christianity and are not living by God's law of love, and instead are living by the flesh and a false love created in their churches. Neither one of these, a spirit of following the flesh, or the spirit of their false love is the fruit and manifestation of the true Spirit of God. These are some of the false spirits manisfested and working in the churches of today's Christianity, that produces rebellion against God, against God's law, and is a sure sign and proof one has not received the true Holy Spirit of God, Rom. 8:7.

Anyone living by the flesh is none of His, Romans 8:9 . "To be fleshly minded is death but to be spiritually minded is life," Romans 8:6. "The fleshly mind is enmity (hateful) against God, for it is not subject to the law of God (God's ten commandments) neither indeed can be," Romans 8:7. "For if you live after the flesh, you shall die: but if you through the Spirit do mortify the deeds of the body, you shall live. For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God," Romans 8:13-14. How much clearer can Christ make it about the need to receive God's Spirit?

The fleshly minded person will not submit or subject himself to God's law, or else he tries to minimize God's Ten Commandments, by teaching they are not important in teaching God's love and in receiving salvation. They teach also that it is impossible to keep God's commandments, and that obeying God's law is legalism, as if true believers are teaching that law-keeping is the only requirement to receiving salvation, and that commandment keeping is against what Christ commands. Some go so far in their hatred or hostility against Christ that they teach Jesus Christ did away with The Ten Commandments at His death, an absolute lie, even though Christ plainly said He came not (in life or death) to abolish (do-away) the law-the 10 commandments, statutes, and judgments, but to fulfill, Mat. 5:17.

Jesus Christ also said a number of times in His teaching, and inspired to be said that one must keep the commandments, meaning the 10 commandments in order to receive eternal life, Mat. 5:19-22; Mat.7:23 (where Christ speaks out against iniquity, people working against commandment keeping); Mat. 19:17-19, Mark 10:17-19. Today's Christianity is a ministry and membership of the flesh, and not of the spirit, because they are not taught the truth about the receiving of God's Holy Spirit, and that the Holy Spirit of God cannot be received by a hostile, fleshly minded, person, that is against obeying The Ten Commandments of Jesus Christ, Gal. 5:14-26, Gal. 2:17-18. Christ said all things are possible through Him, yes even keeping the 10 commandments, Mark 10:17-26. Paul said that "I can do all things through Jesus Christ who strengthens me," Phil. 4:13 But today's confessing Christians deny God's Spirit and deny Jesus Christ who could strengthen them to do the impossible in their minds, and that is to keep God's 10 commandments.

False Christians of today's Christianity also use a perverted teaching of Romans the 7th chapter to deny the power of having received God's Spirit, to overcome their on-going sins, and so compromise their sins and live their life by the ways of the flesh. They teach by this chapter that Paul as a Christian, lived by the flesh and was fleshly minded, and was dominated by his fleshly desires and sins, even though Paul stated in Romans 8:6 that to be fleshly minded is death. What Paul is showing in this 7th chapter is how the fleshly mind and spiritual mind works. The keys to understanding Romans 7 is found in verse 5, 18, and 25, where Paul said, verse 5, "When we were in the flesh" meaning before he and the Roman saint's conversion, and having received God's Spirit.

Paul then proceeds to explain how the fleshly mind works in a carnal minded person and how it worked in him before his conversion, and how it even works now in a person who lives either by quenching the Spirit of God, or lives without the Spirit of God, verse 18. In verse 25, Paul gives thanks that he lives by the Spirit, which is the mind and Spirit of Christ living in him, and not by the law of sin, meaning the power and authority of sin over his life, through the ways of the flesh.

The way of the flesh is the way of sin, and as long as a person lives this fleshly, unrepentant way of life, sin has priority and authority over one's life. Paul goes on to say that the law, (that is trying to obey the law) is weak through the flesh, by those who are determined to live by the flesh, Romans 8:3. But those walking-living by the spirit can fulfill the righteousness of the law, meaning, they can keep God's Ten Commandments and overcome the breaking of those commandments, verse 4. God says in verse 6, "To be fleshly minded is death, but to be spiritually minded is life and peace."

Any person whose life's concerns and thoughts is mainly on the flesh, is laying up treasures on this earth. Any person whose main communication and fellowship with others involves the flesh -- the physical, will reap the fruit of the flesh, Phil. 3:18-21. Anyone whose whole life revolves around the flesh, where the things of the flesh comes first in his life, is proof, one does not have the Holy Spirit, and is not being led by the Spirit. By their fruit you shall know them, Mat. 7:20-21.

Christ says, "Seek first His Kingdom and His righteousness (seeking the spiritual things first) and all these things, the physical necessities of life, shall be added (provided for you)," Mat. 6:33. Any person who does not daily put God first, by daily studying His Word, by digesting and assimilating His Word into his heart and mind, and who is not daily on his knees praying for His help, to be spiritually minded, and to be spirit led, is not being led by the Spirit of God, but by the flesh. This person either does not have the Holy Spirit of God, or is greatly quenching the working of the Spirit that could come to be in his life.

Satan and his messengers (ministers), along with the media are working overtime feverishly to keep people's minds on the flesh and fleshly pursuits. All that is put before you on televison, ministers with all of their shows of how their god, (people's money), has blessed them along with all of their fake healings proves this to be true. This with all of the media, TV, soap operas, sports with all of their commercials, all the videos, all that is in books and magazines uncovering the nakedness of the flesh of people, proves where people's minds are kept on the pursuit of the flesh and lust of the flesh. There is no time left in people's life for God, Jesus Christ and pursuing the opportunity for eternal life. Satan knows this mindset of man and will continue his evil work of displaying all the desires, lusts of the flesh as being all important, to keep you out of God's Kingdom.

What is the conversation of people today? It is all about things of the flesh. Satan and his ministers desire to keep from believers this vital information of how one receives God's Spirit and how one is led by God's Holy Spirit to gain eternal life by him keeping their minds all involved with things of the flesh. Man's lust and the pursuit of the flesh deceives man of how he can receive God's Spirit. The pursuit of the things of the flesh can even cause the quenching of the development of God's Holy Spirit in those who have been given the earnest of the Spirit, and can blind the mind of how one receives more of God's Spirit. Everyone must ask himself, am I being led by the Spirit of God, or by my own flesh and all its fleshly desires through the deception of a false spirit that I have accepted as being God's Spirit from Jesus Christ???

Our loving and merciful Savior set aside His Holy Feast Day of the year called Pentecost, Acts 2:1-17, to remind and help people understand about the giving and receiving of God's Holy Spirit. This Holy Day makes God real in a person's life through the giving of the power of His Holy Spirit. But this Holy Day is not even recognized and kept in today's accepted Christianity. Its importance is nearly all forgotten and lost. WHAT A SHAME! What a missed opportunity in learning about salvation, to worship God in Spirit and truth, and how one receives the Holy Spirit to be assured of salvation, and to be resurrected into His everlasting Kingdom.

Learn, hear, and heed what the Spirit is saying to the churches in Rev. 2 and 3! Some in these churches were not being led by the Spirit of God, but by the flesh, and needed to repent and overcome the sin of being led by the flesh. Have you done what God has commanded to receive God's Holy Spirit, and if you have, are you now being led by that Spirit of God or by the flesh? If you do not have God's Holy Spirit and are not being led by God's Holy Spirit, then don't expect to be saved, and be in the resurrection of God's saints to receive eternal life, because you are not one of Christ's saints. Rom. 8:9 "---Now if any man have not the spirit of Christ he is none of His."

Jesus Christ says He going to reject all those who think they know Him by their own works, them thinking they are doing many seemingly mighty wonderful works and by them calling Him Lord, Lord, but Christ is going to say to them, "I never knew you: depart from me, you that work iniquity," Mat.7:21,23 catcmo2006

Ye are of [your] father the devil IF you are still sinning.

Ye are of [your] father the devil IF you are still sinning.
sinner n : a person who sins (without repenting) [syn: evildoer]

I am a "SINNER SAVED BY GRACE" !

You are saying that you are an evil doer that is not saved and filled with the Holy Spirit. You are also saying that you are not born again free from sin.

When you are not born again you are a sinner still commiting ongoing sin with out not turning 100% away from it.

2 Cor 5:17-THEREFORE "IF" ANY MAN BE IN CHRIST (or be born-again), HE IS A NEW CREATURE: OLD THINGS ARE PASSED AWAY; BEHOLD, "ALL" THINGS ARE BECOME NEW. Many claim salvation through Jesus Christ, but the old things have never passed away. True repentance never took place. But for those few that are "in Christ", all things are become new.

1 Jn 3:8-10-HE THAT COMMITTETH SIN IS OF THE DEVIL: FOR THE DEVIL SINNETH FROM THE BEGINNING. FOR THIS PURPOSE THE SON OF GOD WAS MANIFESTED, THAT HE MIGHT DESTROY THE WORKS OF THE DEVIL. 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. IN THIS THE CHILDREN OF GOD ARE MANIFEST (OR MADE KNOWN), AND THE CHILDREN OF THE DEVIL: WHOSOEVER DOETH NOT RIGHTEOUSNESS IS NOT OF GOD, NEITHER HE THAT LOVETH NOT HIS BROTHER.

If you are living in sin, you are not born of God. If you are not doing Gods will, that which is right in the eyes of God, you are not of God. You are not born-again. You are not saved. If you do not love your brother, you are not of God. Does your fruit testify you are of God or of the devil?

1 Jn 5:18-WE KNOW. Note these words, "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.
1 Jn 5:17-ALL UNRIGHTEOUSNESS IS SIN. Again, we see the words: BORN OF GOD. A new birth must take place in your life. We know by a person's fruits, if they are born of God.

God does not put the Holy Spirit into a person that is still living in sin. They must repent, else the rent is made worse. One does not put the Holy Spirit into someone who is an old bottle, living in their old ways and has not repented, else the wine runneth out, and the bottles perish. But the Holy Spirit is put into new bottles, that is, a sinner who has repented, and both are preserved. No man having drunk of the pleasures of sin, straightway desires new ways, (God?s ways), for he saith the old is better. Is sin deceiving you? Are your ears dull of hearing? Are your hearts waxed gross? Know this, WITHOUT HOLINESS, NO ONE WILL SEE THE LORD. You must be born-again. You must be converted. You must become as a little child before Almighty God, and have the attitude, "Not my will, but Thine be done." Are you really walking with God?
Jn 5:24-VERILY, VERILY, I SAY UNTO YOU, HE THAT HEARETH "MY" WORD, AND BELIEVETH ON HIM THAT SENT ME, HATH EVERLASTING LIFE, AND SHALL NOT COME INTO CONDEMNATION; BUT IS PASSED FROM DEATH UNTO LIFE.

When you become born again the blood of Jesus Christ remits all sin from you Thefore you are sinless. IN Jesus there is NO DARKNESS For John says, "If we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from ALL sin" (1 John 1:7).Therefore is you are in Jesus Sin cannot be in your life at all. God is Holy. Heaven is Holy.

"THE WAGES OF SIN is death; but the GIFT OF GOD IS
eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord" (Romans
6:23).

REPENT MISINFORMED SINNER SAVED BY GRACE!

1 Jn 5:18-WE KNOW. Note these words, "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.

1 Jn 3:8-10-HE THAT COMMITTETH SIN IS OF THE DEVIL: FOR THE DEVIL SINNETH FROM THE BEGINNING. FOR THIS PURPOSE THE SON OF GOD WAS MANIFESTED, THAT HE MIGHT DESTROY THE WORKS OF THE DEVIL. 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. IN THIS THE CHILDREN OF GOD ARE MANIFEST (OR MADE KNOWN), AND THE CHILDREN OF THE DEVIL: WHOSOEVER DOETH NOT RIGHTEOUSNESS IS NOT OF GOD, NEITHER HE THAT LOVETH NOT HIS BROTHER.

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

Acts 3:19-REPENT YE THEREFORE, AND BE CONVERTED, THAT YOUR SINS MAY BE BLOTTED OUT, WHEN THE TIMES OF REFRESHING SHALL COME FROM THE PRESENCE OF THE LORD.

Mt 18:3-EXCEPT YE BE CONVERTED, AND BECOME AS LITTLE CHILDREN, YE SHALL NOT ENTER INTO THE KINGDOM OF HEAVEN.

I LOVE YOU MIS INFORMED CHRISTIAN That is why I tell you the 100% unsuppressed unadulterated truth in love. Grace does not reign through sin. If you think it does, then you have been lied to by evil spirits that are in false ministers and you are being led by satan along with the spirrit of error to do evil to the saints that trully belong to God.Ro 6:1-10-WHAT SHALL WE SAY THEN? SHALL WE CONTINUE IN SIN, THAT GRACE MAY ABOUND? GOD FORBID. HOW SHALL WE, THAT ARE DEAD TO SIN, LIVE ANY LONGER THEREIN? KNOW YE NOT, THAT SO MANY OF US "AS WERE" BAPTIZED INTO JESUS CHRIST WERE BAPTIZED INTO HIS DEATH? THEREFORE WE ARE BURIED WITH HIM BY BAPTISM INTO DEATH: THAT LIKE AS CHRIST WAS RAISED UP FROM THE DEAD BY THE GLORY OF THE FATHER, EVEN SO WE ALSO SHOULD WALK IN NEWNESS OF LIFE. FOR IF WE HAVE BEEN PLANTED "TOGETHER" IN THE LIKENESS OF "HIS" DEATH, WE SHALL BE ALSO IN THE LIKENESS OF "HIS" RESURRECTION: KNOWING THIS, THAT OUR OLD MAN IS CRUCIFIED WITH HIM, THAT THE BODY OF SIN MIGHT BE DESTROYED, THAT HENCEFORTH WE SHOULD NOT "SERVE" SIN.

Acts 3:19-REPENT YE THEREFORE, AND BE CONVERTED, THAT YOUR SINS MAY BE BLOTTED OUT, WHEN THE TIMES OF REFRESHING SHALL COME FROM THE PRESENCE OF THE LORD. catcmo2006

Judge, To Expose Error, & To Call Names?

Judge, To Expose Error, & To Call Names? Many today believe that it is wrong to expose error and to name names.
Liberals have always seemed to believe this, but in recent times it has been widely espoused by evangelicals and charismatics. Now we are seeing the same fatal error being declared by those who profess to be Bible believing fundamentalists. Those who are faithful in exposing error according to the Bible
are now being widely denounced, and are accused of being unloving and unkind. In
this tract we intend to present the teaching of the Bible on this vital subject.

I. It Is Right To Practice Biblical Judgment

One of the most misused verses in the Bible is, "Judge not, that ye be not
judged." (Matt. 7:1). Every Scripture verse should be read in its context, if we
are to properly understand the true meaning. In vs.2-5 of this same chapter it
is evident that v.1 is referring to hypocritical judgment. A brother who has a
beam in his own eye should not be judging the brother who may have a mote in his
eye. The lesson is plain, you cannot judge another for his sin if you are guilty
of the same sin.

Those who cling to "Judge not, that ye be not judged," to condemn those who
expose error should read the entire chapter. Jesus said, "Beware of false
prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing..." (v.15). How can we know
false prophets unless we judge them by the Word of God? If we know the false
prophets, how can we fail to warn the sheep of these "ravening wolves?" All
through the Bible we find proof that they should be identified and exposed.

"Ye shall know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of
thistles? Even so every good tree bringeth forth good fruit; but a corrupt tree
bringeth forth evil fruit" (vs.16,17). Did the Lord mean that we could not judge
the tree (person), by the fruit of their life and doctrine? Certainly not, for
you cannot know without judging. All judgment should be on the basis of Bible
teaching, not according to whims or prejudices.

"Judge not according to the appearance, but judge righteous judgment." (John
7:24). Here our Lord commands that we are to "judge righteous judgment," which
is judgment based upon the Word of God. If judgment is made upon any other
basis, other than the Word of God, it is a violation of Matt. 7:1. Webster's
Dictionary says that a judge is "one who declares the law." The faithful
Christian must discern of judge on the basis of God's inspired law, the Bible.

A fornicator is described in I Cor. 5:1-13. Paul "judged" (v.3) the man even
though he was absent, and he told the Church at Corinth that they were to
"judge" (v.12) those that were within. The Greek word for "judge" is the same
here as in Matt. 7:1. Paul did not violate "judge not, that ye be not judged,"
in judging the man, nor in instructing the Church to judge also. All of this
judgment was according to the Word of God.

A person who is able to discern between good and evil, has at least one of the
major marks of spiritual maturity. "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." (Heb. 5:14). W.E. vine says of the meaning of
discern, "a distinguishing, a clear discrimination, discerning, judging; is
translated 'discerning' in I Cor. 12:10 of discerning spirits, judging by
evience whether they are evil or of God." Strong also agrees that it means to
judge.

Those who are unwilling or incapable of discerning or judging between good and
evil are in this manner revealing either their disobedience or their immaturity.

II. It Is Right To Expose False Teachers

False teachers are free to spread their poisonous doctrines today because there
is a conspiracy of silence among many Bible believers. Wolves in sheep's
clothing are thus enabled to ravage the flock, thereby destroying many.

John the Baptist called the Pharisees and Sadducees (the religious leaders of
his day) "a generation of vipers" (snakes) (Matt. 3:7). Today, he would be
accused of being unloving, unkind, and unchristian.

Jesus said to the religious Pharisees, "O generation of vipers, how can ye,
being evil, speak good things? for out of the abundance of the heart the mouth
speaketh" (Matt. 12:34). To many evangelicals and some fundamentalists, this
would be unacceptable language today, but it is biblical language and it came
from the mouth of the Son of God.

Standing face to face with these false teachers, Jesus Christ the son of God,
called them "hypocrites, " "blind guides," "blind," "whited sepulchres,"
"serpents," and "ye generation of vipers" (Matt. 23:23-34). Yet, we are told
today that we are to fellowship with men whose doctrines are just as
unscriptural as those of the Pharisees. Some who say they are Bible believing
Christians insist on working with Roman Catholics and other assorted heretics.
Yet, according to many, we are not supposed to rebuke them for their compromise.

Near the beginning of His ministry, "Jesus went up to Jerusalem, and found in
the temple those that sold oxen and sheep and doves, and the changers of money
sitting: And when he had made a scourge of small cords, he drove them all out of
the temple, and the sheep, and the oxen; and poured out the changers' money, and
overthrew the tables; And said unto them that sold doves, Take these things
hence; make not my Father's house an house of merchandise" (John 2:13-16). Our
Saviour is presented today as one who was meek, lowly, kind, and loving, even to
false teachers, but this is entirely false. When dealing with false teachers and
prophets, His words were sharp and His actions plain.

Near the end of His public ministry, Christ found it necessary to cleanse the
temple once again. The exposure of false doctrines and practices is a never
ending job. At that time He said, "Is it not written, My house shall be called
of all nations the house of prayer? but ye have made it a den of thieves" (Mark
11:17). Is it any different today? The thieves come into the house of God, and
rob God's people of the Bible and peddle their perverted Bibles instead. At the
same time this den of thieves rob the people off the doctrine of separation and
the doctrine of sanctification. Then you can hardly tell God's people from the
people of the world. In all honesty, should not these thieves (false teachers)
be exposed?

In our day these false teachers have come into the churches with their books,
literature, movies, psychology, and seminars, and have turned the Father's house
into a den of thieves. It is time that men of God stand up and expose their
errors for all to see.

The Bible Admonishes Us To Expose Error

We are to TRY them. "Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits,
whether they be of God; because many false prophets are gone out into the world"
(I John 4:1). All doctrine and teachers are to be tried according to the Word of
God. "To the law and to the testimony: if they speak not according to this word,
it is because there is no light in them" (Isa. 8:20). Every message, messenger,
and method is to be judged according to the Word of God. The church at Ephesus
was commended because they had "tried them which say they are apostles, and are
not, and hast fund them liars" (Rev. 2:2). The church at Pergamos was rebuked
because they tolerated those that held "the doctrine of Balaam," and "the
doctrine of the Nicolaitanes, which thing I hate" (Rev. 2:14,15). It is never
right to tolerate false teachers, but they are to be tried by the Word of God,
and exposed. Of course those who want to disobey the Word of God will seek by
every means to avoid this teaching.

We are to MARK them and AVOID them. "Now I beseech you, brethren, mark them
which cause divisions and offences contrary to the doctrine which ye have
learned; and avoid them" (Rom. 16:17). Those whose conduct and teaching
contradicts the Word of God are to be marked and to be avoided. This requires
discernment and judgment in the light of the Bible. The ecumenicalists, new
evangelicals, and compromising fundamentalists will resist any effort to obey
this Scripture. They cannot be marked and avoided, unless they are judged
according to the Word of God.

We are to REBUKE them. "Wherefore rebuke them sharply, that they may be sound in
the faith" (Titus 1:13). This was written to Titus, because there were those
going from house to house and subverting whole houses with false doctrine
(v.10-16). Oral Roberts, Robert Schuller, Jimmy Swaggart, Pat Robertson, and
others are subverting whole houses with their false doctrine today. Are we to
sit silently by, while they do this, without rebuking and admonishing people to
avoid their teaching? No, the faithful servant of the Lord is to be "Holding
fast the faithful word as he hath been taught, that he may be able by sound
doctrine both to exhort and to convince the gainsayers" (Titus 1:9).

We are to have NO FELLOWSHIP with them. "And have no fellowship with the
unfruitful works of darkness, but rather reprove them" (Eph. 5:11). Reprove
means to censure, condemn, find fault, rebuke, and to refute. How can we obey
this Scripture unless we try them by the Word of God?

We are to WITHDRAW from them. "Now we command you, brethren, in the name of the
Lord Jesus Christ, that ye withdraw yourselves from every brother that walketh
disorderly, and not after the tradition which ye received of us" (II Thess.
3:6). We are to withdraw from those whose doctrine and conduct does not conform
to the Word of God. The context clearly shows that obedience to sound doctrine
is what Paul has in mind, for he says, "if any man obey not our word by this
epistle, note that man and have no company with him, that he may be ashamed.
Yet, count him not as an enemy, but admonish him as a brother" (II Thess.
3:14-15). Paul admonished Timothy to "withdraw thyself" from those who "consent
not to wholesome words...and to the doctrine which is according to godliness" (1Tim. 6:3-5).

We are to TURN AWAY from them. Concerning the last days, he says that some will
have "a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away"
for such people are "never able to come to the knowledge of the truth" (II Tim.
3:5,7). How can we turn away from them if we do not identify them, and this
requires that their message be compared to the Word of God. It is the business
of the true preacher to: "Preach the word; be instant in season, out of season;
reprove, rebuke, exhort with all longsuffering and doctrine" (II Tim. 4:2). This
is usually an unpopular and thankless task but it is the duty of the God-called
man.

We are NOT to RECEIVE them into our house. "If there come any unto you, and
bring not this doctrine, receive him not into your house, neither bid him God
speed: For he that biddeth him God speed is partaker of his evil deeds" (II John
10,11). There is no doubt about who John is speaking about, it is "Whosoever
transgresseth, and abideth not in the doctrine of Christ..." (v.9). By radio,
TV, and literature, false prophets are brought into the homes of many Christians
today. Brethren, this ought not to be!

We are to REJECT HERETICS. "A man that is an heretick after the first and second
admonition reject" (Titus 3:10). We should reject those who deny redemption by
the blood of Christ. There are many who deny this or some other doctrine of the
Word of God. If they will not respond to being admonished, then they are to be
rejected.

We are to look out for those who preach another gospel. Paul warned about those
who preached "another Jesus...another spirit...or another gospel" (II Cor.
11:4). How can we know them unless we judge their Jesus, their spirit, and their
gospel by the Word of God? Paul called such preachers "false apostles, deceitful
workers, transforming themselves into the apostles of Christ" (II Cor. 11:13).
He explains in v.14-15 that these preachers are the ministers of Satan. The
God-called man must be just as faithful today in exposing the ministers of
Satan.

Paul warned the Galatians about those who "pervert the gospel of Christ." He
also said, "if any man preach any other gospel unto you than that ye have
received, let him be accursed." (See Gal. 1:6-9). Multitudes today are preaching
a perverted gospel. Those who teach salvation by baptism, or by works, are
teaching a perverted gospel. Those who preach a salvation that you can lose, are
preaching a perverted gospel. The charismatics, Catholics, many evangelicals,
and many fundamentalists (?) are preaching a perverted gospel. Yet, we are
supposed to cooperate with them in evangelism and Christian work, according to
many today. If we fail to expose these false prophets, then we have betrayed
Christ and His gospel.

We are to SEPARATE from them. "Wherefore come out from among them, and be ye
separate, saith the Lord, and touch not the unclean thing; and I will receive
you" (II Cor. 6:17). This makes it plain. God's people are to come out of
apostasy and religious error. How can any Bible believer remain in the National
Council or World Council of Churches? How can they remain in the Southern
Baptist Convention, or any of the other apostate organizations? How can they
remain among compromising evangelicals and wishy-washy fundamentalists?

III. It is Right To Name Names

Many mistakenly believe that it is wrong to expose error and to name the guilty
teachers; but they are wrong according to the Bible.

Paul named Peter publicly. Peter was guilty of unscriptural practice. "But when
Peter was come to Antioch, I withstood him to the face, because he was to be
blamed...But when I saw that they walked not uprightly according to the truth of
the gospel, I said unto Peter before them all, If thou, being a Jew, livest
after the manner of Gentiles, and not as do the Jews, why compellest thou the
Gentiles to live as do the Jews?" (Gal. 2:11-14). The whole issue revolved
around salvation by the law or by grace. When the integrity and purity of the
gospel is at stake, then we have no choice when it comes to the matter of
exposing error and naming names.

Paul named Demas for loving the world. "For Demas hath forsaken me, having loved
this present world" (II Tim. 4:10). Those who forsake the cause of Christ for
worldly living and pleasures should be name and exposed.

Paul named Hymenaeus and Alexander. Paul told Timothy to "war a good warfare;
Holding faith, and a good conscience; which some having put away concerning
faith have made shipwreck: Of whom is Hymenaesus and Alexander; whom I have
delivered unto Satan, that they may learn not to blaspheme" (I Tim. 1:18-20).
God's true servants should war a good warfare, and name those who have departed
from the faith that was once delivered to the saints. Paul is not here
discussing the faith of salvation but the faith as a system of doctrine. These
men had made shipwreck of it and Paul exposed them and called their names.

Paul named Hymenaeus and Philetus. He told Timothy to "study" that he might be
able to "rightly" divide "the word of truth. But shun profane and vain
babblings: for they will increase unto more ungodliness. And their word will eat
as doth a canker: of whom is Hymenaeus and Philetus; Who concerning the truth
have erred, saying that the resurrection is past already; and overthrow the
faith of some" (II Tim. 2:15-18). False doctrine overthrows the faith of some,
so those who are proclaiming it must be exposed.

Paul named Alexander the coppersmith. "Alexander the coppersmith did me much
evil: the Lord reward him according to his works:Of whom be thou ware also; for
he hath greatly withstood our words" (II Tim. 4:14-15). It is clear that this is
not a personality problem, but a doctrinal problem. Alexander had withstood the
words and doctrine of Paul. He was an enemy to the truth. Godly pastors face the
same problem every day. They stand and proclaim the truth, then their members go
home and hear this truth disputed by radio and TV preachers. Often times these
false prophets are sending their publications into the homes of members of true
churches. Then the man of God is suppose to keep his mouth shut, according to
many. Only a coward will be silent when the truth of the Bible is under attack.

John name Diotrephes. "I wrote unto the church; but Diotrephes, who loveth to
have the preeminence among them, recieveth us not" (III John 9). He related how
this man had prated against him "with malicious words" (v.10). He further said,
"Beloved, follow not that which is evil but that which is good. He that doeth
good is of God, but he that doeth evil hath not seen God" (v.11). It is not
wrong to name those whose doctrine and practice is contrary to the Word of God.

In fact, the whole Bible abounds in examples of false prophets being named and
exposed. All this modern day talk about love, used as an excuse for not exposing
error, is not really biblical love but is really sloppy agape.

Moses called the name of Balaam. (See Num. 22-25). Peter exposed "the way of
Balaam... who loved the wages of unrighteousness" (II Pet. 2:15). Balaam was a
prophet that was in the work for money, just like some of the TV false prophets
today. They beg for money and live like kings, while multitudes of innocent
people send them their hard earned money. They are always building colleges,
hospitals, TV networks satellites, and amusement parks that have a water slide
for Jesus. And then we are suppose to keep our mouth shut about these religious
charlatans. How can we be silent and be true to God?

Jude exposed "the error of Balaam" (Jude 11). John exposed "the doctrine of
Balaam, who taught Balac to cast a stumblingblock before the children of Israel,
to eat things sacrificed unto idols, and to commit fornication" (Rev. 2:14).
This gets right to the heart of the matter, concerning the doctrine of
separation. Balaam never did curse Israel even though he wanted the wages that
he was offered to do so. The men of Israel committed "whoredom with the
daughters of Moab...and bowed down to their gods" (Num. 25:1,2). Why did they do
this? Because Balaam taught Balac how to break down the barrier of separation
between the Moabites and the Israelites. We know this to be so because it is
plainly stated in Rev. 2:14 and Num. 31:16. This sin resulted in 24,000 men of
Israel dying under the judgment of God.

False teachers are breaking down the barrier of separation between God's people
and false religion. There is too little preaching and teaching on the doctrine
of separation. Balaam breached the doctrine of personal separation by causing
the men of Israel to commit fornication with the Moabite women. He breached the
doctrine of ecclesiastical separation by causing the men of Israel to bow down
to Baal. This brought a curse upon Israel. Until we get back to teaching the
truth about personal and ecclesiastical separation, we can expect the continued
widespread havoc that we have today.

It seems to be believed by many that some people are too high and mighty to be
name or exposed. Men in high places, pastors of large churches, and those with
great radio of TV audiences, are supposedly above criticism. Whatever they may
do or say, no matter how contrary to the Bible it may be, is supposedly all
right. Nothing could be further from the truth.

Nathan identified the man. There was a man in a very high place who was a secret
adulterer. Surely this man who held the highest office in the land could not be
rebuked by a lowly unpopular prophet. Nathan went right into the presence of
David, revealed the sin in a parable form, and then told the enraged David,
"Thou art the man" (II Sam. 12:7).

Hanani name king Jehoshaphat. In many ways Jehoshaphat was a good king, but he
mistakenly forgot to practice religious separation. He caused his son to marry
wicked king Ahab's daughter. (See II Cron. 18:1; 21:1-6). He made an alliance
with Ahab and went to the battle of Ramoth-gilead with him (II Chron. 18).
Hanani "said to King Jehoshaphat, Shouldest thou help the ungodly, and love them
that hate the Lord?" (II Chron. 19:2). We have a question for those who insist
on working with charismatics, Catholics, and members of the National Council of
Churches, "Shouldest thou help the ungodly, and love them that hate the Lord?"

Yes, it is right to expose error and to name those who are in error. It is right
to "earnestly contend for the faith which was once delivered unto the saints"
(Jude 3). It was once delivered and it has never been recalled for revision. We
had better beware of "false teacher...who privily shall bring in damnable
heresies" (II Pet. 2:1). Faithful messengers will warn the sheep of these
heretics, and identify them by name. It is not enough to broadly hint of their
identity, for the young lambs will not understand and will be destroyed by the
wolves.
