  1. Muslims believe that Jesus was a wise Prophet— nothing more......Allah had NO  “ Son”....

    Jesus was “ a” Son Of god.....not “ THE” Son Of God......

    one little article of speech— the difference between Heaven and Hell ...

     a “ Muslim”, like anybody else, has to be like “ Lydia” from the Bible......God  “ opened her heart “ to not only “ hear” the Gospel, but BELIEVE it..... 

    “ Nobody can come to Jesus lest the Spirit draw him”

    if I had a Muslim friend, I would pray for them.....no different than I pray for many of my UNsaved friends....

    They've known for years about the capabilities of what a website could erupt into.   They've had these examples for years.   It's just odd how they all came together at once and enacted one of their laws.   Keeping Trump himself off of them.   Why couldn't this happened during any other tragedy where there is communication passed by usage of mobile sites?   This was done specifically to shut down Trump.

     

    Correct. It “was” done to shut down Trump.....the same way you would put tape over a Lying, Big Mouth Lout, shouting “ FIRE” in a crowded movie theatre.....yep......it was done to silence a delusional , dangerous Baboon—- GOD Bless Them ! 

  3. Hell will be chock- full of “ good” men.....” moral” men.....the “ Good Neighbor Sam” Type......

    What a man might see in another man as “ good”, God sees as one that is “ DEAD ....Dead in Trespasses and Sins” 

    “ Good” ain’t gonna get you nowhere . “Ye are to be PERFECT, even as your Father in Heaven is Perfect” . THAT is the Standard and you can’t keep it .....

    Nobody is even “ close” to being “ perfect”, but if you you Trust Jesus to Save you , He will “ Consider “ you as being perfect .... because Of The Cross , if you are a Believer, Jesus gets your sins and you get HIS Perfection....This could all be called “ Christianity 101”

    That is not what I said. I do not think that people who disagree with me hate me. 

    But before I go I will ask. Why do you want me to use the ignore this topic button? Do you all dislike what I say so much that you don't even what to me to take part in the thread? I mean if that is so then I think I really need to know. Then I can decided what to do about this. 

     

    Don't leave.....there are too few voices of Sanity left these days.....your voice is precious .....we can’t give ground to those who think that the Earth is flat and that Elvis shot Kennedy.....these people actually exists....what we see in here at times are their intellectual cousins —— they can NOT be allowed to win.....

    What some people try to do, I believe, is change the definition of "repent." When Jesus used the word, I believe he was telling us to turn from sin. But some Christians seem to define "repent" as: Turn to God, and then sin as much as you want. When Jesus told us to repent, I think he was telling us to turn from our sin.

     

    One “ turns to God” as a Lost Sinner who MUST have a Savior to obtain Eternal Life.....this side of the Cross, we do this by Trusting in  The Gospel  ......just like in the example of  “ Lydia, the Seller Of Purple” , God had to “ open her heart” to not only “ hear” , but BELIEVE that Gospel . This proves what Jesus said..... “ No man can come to the Father , lest the Spirit draw him”

    The man who truly turns to God with a   Contrite Heart and Trusts in the Gospel Of 1Cor15:1-4 to Save Him WILL “ Sin as much as he wants!” What many weak, confused “Believers” ( ?) fail to see ,( mainly because of decades of Poor Teaching ) , is that along with the Complete Forgiveness Of Sins one receives when he RESTS in the Gospel Gospel , this man also receives a” NEW HEART” which has made him  “ NEW CREATION...... one with New Desires .... “ NEW WANTS!”

      God never takes away Anybody’s Freedom. He has no desire to spend Eternity with a bunch of Robots....I am a “ Free Man in Christ”. I do what I want .With my New Heart, My “ Wants” line-up with God’s “Wants” now......Sin has about as much appeal for me now that I have been made a New Creation as sticking my hand in a hornet’s nest. Why would I “ want” to do that ? 

      God bless us all in the understanding of these things....

    Do you think the Lord favors sin?

     

    The Lord HATES Sin .Thats why He gave us the Cure. Grace.

    Here is the Plan.....

    Hear the Gospel.... Believe the Gospel.....REST in that Gospel....that “ Rest” spurs Love .....Love is the “Engine” that drives the “ turning from Sin” and it is the Engine that brings about the Obedience That God is looking for .....a Natural Obedience That comes from the heart.....

    Try RESTING in Paul’s Gospel Of 1Cor 15:1-4..... You might be amazed how after you do that.....everything else falls into place....

    Hebrews 3 and 4 informs us that if we do Not Rest in the Gospel, we will be charged with “Disobedience and UNbelief”.....Serious stuff....best look into it....God Bless...

    From that time Jesus began to preach, saying, "Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand." Matthew 4:17 RSV

     

    Did you ever consider that by using the word “ repent” here that Jesus was saying “ Turn” .......as in “ TURN TO GOD”

    That makes sense, because if you “ turn to God” as the Publican did, Jesus says that will Save you...

    on the other hand—taken the the way that “ you” want it to mean—-nobody Repented as seriously as Judas did ....you think his “ repentance” got him saved? Had his repentance involved Turning to God, he would be in Heaven right now.....Judas never turned to God—- he Turned to a hang- man’s Noose. That’s why he is in Hell right now.....those that fail to “ Turn to God” ( The True Repentance for Salvation ) will find themselves with Judas—- along with  anybody else that thought that “ repenting Of Sins” is the Way to get to Heaven ..

         Its a False, Perverted Gospel That makes such a claim—- try the True Gospel Of Grace Plus Nothing In 1 cor 5:1-4  .....

      Believe That alone.....that will get Gods Spirit in you , and following That.....the type of Repentance that you are talking about ( guilt, sorrow, remorse for Sin) will occur naturally in your life as part of God’s to “ Transform you into the Image Of His Son”

    God bless

    Matthew 4:17 is a simple command: Repent (of our sin). When we do, life clears up. But few want to repent.

    Repenting Of Sin is a good Thing . It  will make you a  more Moral person....there is Certainly nothing Wrong with that ....However, Let me assure you—- Hell will be replete  with “ Moral” People....

    If the Bible says “ repent of sins”..... by all means.....  Do it ! 

    If the Bible ever says “ Repent Of Sins in order to be Saved—- do THaT too!

    The Problem is the Bible NEVER says that.If you can find where it does  in the KJV .....provide the Verse and I will give you or anybody else in here $1000...

     MY BIBLE says the Way to get Saved is to Simply Believe in Paul’s Gospel —— Given to Him personally by Jesus Christ.This Gospel That God will JUDGE YOU BY ( NOT your ability to Repent) can be found in 1Cor15:1-4 ....

    If and  when you discover this verse that can Save you, make sure you don’t ADD to It or you will “ Fall from Grace” ( Gal5)

    Also , make sure you REST in IT and nothing else  for your Salvation, lest God  declare you guilty if “ Disobedience”and “ UNBELIEF”...

    In closing....PREACH another Gospel ....one that God declares “ False” and “ Perverted” and you will find yourself “ Accursed”—- damned for Eternity....

    The PERVERTED Gospel  most  promoted these days would be THIS ONE—- “ Sure, Jesus died   for your sins , but once you know “ that” , you must Reoent of  all of your sins  before you die , or you will go to Hell”...

    Another popular PERVERTED Gospel says, “ Jesus died for your Sins, but not the “ Willful” ones”......This False, Perverted “Gospel” stems from a confused “ take” on Hebrews 10, where the True “,Willful” Sin being addressed is the Sin Of UNBELIEF .....The Jews of that day had heard the True Gospel Of Jesus Being the “ONE TIME SACRIFICE” for Sin......They Rejected That Truth and proved it by continuing to offer their worthless animal Sacrifices at the Temple That was still open for business......a “ Business” made obsolete by the Sacrifice Of Jesus on the Cross....God Bless.....

    “ And it is HE that GIFTED some to be Apostles, Prophets........and others to be TEACERS” eph4:11..... 

  11. This is a Response of Mine to a Man who thinks it is wrong to go to God- Given Teachers ....That's not the point of the following .....there’s just some good stuff in here that I thought somebody might enjoy or need to hear. I mean....who doesn’t want to get rich? Right? 


    So you believe the lie that believers who sin will lose rewards, not their salvation.

    This is the most ridiculous made-up doctrine I’ve heard; your own false doctrine teaches that everyone sins every day! Meaning that NO ONE will ever get any rewards.

    So what is the point of a judgment seat of rewards if It’s impossible to issue such rewards since no one ever becomes sinless according to your doctrine?



    ———————————————————————————————-


    .....you claim you have “ No Teacher”—- Man, does it show !

    We are not Rewarded on the basis of “ sinning or NOT Sinning”......
    “ IF” one has rested in Paul’s Gospel Of Grace Plus Nothing and thereby qualified himself for the “ Bema” Seat Of Christ, Sins are neither here nor there .....God , 100% due to His Love and Grace For Believers in His Son, has taken all of our sins and cast them into the “ deepest depths of the Ocean” and as He Promised , He will “ Remember Them NO MORE” . It’s a shame you and some others here in the Forum lack the Necessary FAITH to actually BELIEVE that.Yes, it’s a shame—- a DAMNED Shame! Literally.
    Here ya go, Mr, “ need no Bible teaching “......it works like this....pull up a chair....it’s called “ Christianity 101.....

    At the “ Reward Throne Of Jesus” ( The BEMA SEAT ) Believers will be rewarded for their Works.....not Works Of “ Good Deeds” like when you helped that “ little old lady to cross the street”—- nothing wrong with that , but it ain't what we are talking about here ....
    We are talking about “Works Of FAITH!” Like the FAITH showed by those that watched their Children being killed or eaten alive by Lions in the Roman Arenas......just for the “kicks”of the audience ......Others for the FAITH they showed when they refused to renounce their Faith in Jesus and were then hung up, set on Fire and used as Lamps for Nero’s Gardens......these Heroes Of Faith “ died without obtaining all Of the Good Promises Of God —- These Earliest and most Faithful Of Believers— these “Martyrs” are going to receive the biggest “Crowns” at the Reward Seat Of Jesus.Does That Sound about Right to you ? In your opinion, those who threw away their Cigarettes or smashed those wicked “ Madonna” albums would be first in line probably....
    Another group that will receive large “ Crowns” at the Bema Seat will be “ Soul Winners”—— Only Those That Preached Paul’s Gospel Of Grace plus Nothing will be Eligible.....those that Taught “ Jesus Saves. Period.”......... Not those who preached “ Jesus Saves..... BUT!” It will be all of those that actually Believed the Lyrics Of “ Nothing But The Blood Of Jesus” for Salvation —- NOT the Hypocrites that mouthed it but not fir ONE SECOND actually Believed it.The Preacher That was used by God to rescue 1000 Souls will receive a larger Crown than the man who rescued 100 Souls.
    Jesus talked about using your money ( your Treasure) to build Rewards in Heaven.You do that in the following manner: 
    If you give from your Heart ....if you “ Share in All Things” to that man or to that Ministry that “ delivered to you the Gospel” ( as Commanded to do in Gal 6:6 —- you don't hear that one preached often, do you?) you will share in that Preacher’s Reward in Heaven . The man that gives 90% of his income to promote the Gospel will get a bigger Reward ( Crown) at the Bema Seat . Makes sense , doesn’t it ? If you give because you mistakenly think that you “ HAVE” to give in order to “Get Saved “ or “ Stay Saved” or if you “ Tithe” because you have been under the Threat Of going to Hell if you “ DON’T” Tithe ....... keep your money in your pocket....You are wasting it....God is looking for “ Cheerful” Givers only......A Truly Saved man can NOT be HELD BACK from sharing his money with the man that delivered the Gospel That was responsible for Saving his Soul from an Eternity in Hell....
    It has been reported that Charles Wesley ( coulda been John ) did things backwards when it came to “ Building Treasure in Heaven”——- he kept 10% of his income for himself and gave 90% to the things of God. Now you tell me—— who will get the biggest Reward when Jesus is passing them out, come Judgement Day? Mr. Wesley or Joe Shmoe who gave maybe 1% ? 
    Anyway.....this is how it works.....NOTHING to do with SIN or the LACK Thereof.....that Issue was put to Rest for All BELIEVERS at the CROSS. 2000+ years ago....
    Let me ask you, Mr. UNTEACHABLE....By Chance, were you “ TAUGHT” anything today , or are you still more content being “ Stiff -Necked”......You are in my prayers .....May God bless the rest of us in the understanding of these things.....

    No disrespect intended, but.....I don’t  think that I am the “only” one that by passes these types of giant  Scripture Walls.....I already have a Bible....  I know what’s in it.... we are more interested in what you “ Think!”....... just saying...

  14.  

     

     They seem to be condemning anyone who says that being saved will result in a changed life calling that salvation by works.

    Simply absurd .The whole “POINT” of Christianity , which I have mentioned many times ,is For a Person to Turn to God as a Lost Sinner ,putting his Entire Trust in the Shed Blood Of Jesus to Save them and then God will put His Holy Spirit in them to TRANSFORM them into “The IMAGE of His SON”. Why would I “ Condemn” people whose lives have been changed?

    Just at the place that I used to work, I have seen hard, rough, hateful men that were Transformed into kind, meek men.....it was a delight to see these transformations.Paul says in Gal.6:15, that the ONLY THING THAT MATTERS is “ being Transformed into a New Creation.....and you presume I’m gonna  “ CONDEMN” that? I am sure you did not mean to hurl insults my way, but consider what you are accusing me of.....

    The only  thing that I would  “ condemn” are the Ignorant , self-Righteous Religious “ Fruit Inspectors”   That use their role as “Inspectors” to become threatening bullies that want to grab a Fruit Tree  ( a saved person ) by  the throat and yell, “CHANGE, DAMN YOU,CHANGE!..... People would never “ think” of getting real fruit from a real tree in this manner....

     Peer Pressure in Churches can manufacture a “ change” in a person that will do nothing but make a person a Phony .....A Newbie ACTS in a certain changed manner to get the SPYS off their Keisters .....

    Any type Of  Positive , Moral Change is good, but God ain’t looking for “ Change” ( something anyone can outwardly do) ....God is looking for TRANSFORMATION.....the Creation of an actual NEW BEING, with a NEW Heart......the “ Fruit” will occur naturally ......and as in my own personal case.....90% of my changes were on the “ inside of the cup” that naturally showed up on the “ outside of the cup” .....it took a very long time for my Natural Fruit to manifest itself and it was 99% stuff that was important to God and invisible to the Judgmental Goons   In the Church.

     To sum up......God  ain’t  interested in “ Spiritual Imitation” , that would be “ religion. God is insterested in Spiritual FRUITION , “ that” would be Christianity ....

    God is the only One that can be in control of my Transformation ...I can’t do it and I refuse to be a phony about what I am....for better or worse ......

    I do what I can do....I practice Faith ( like Paul said, we finish this Walk the same way we started it— Faith! ) and in turn , I let God do what only HE can do .....Transform my HEART ....

     A” changed Life” stemming from will- Power  and peer  pressure is what I am against....

     A “ changed life” stemming from a New Heart? That’s what God wants and that’s all that I try to promote ....

    When  a person says that the Changed Life is what “ Gets” you Saved and also says that the Changed Life is what  “ keeps” you Saved.....that is when you cross the line into Legalism.If one goes beyond “ Nothing But The Blood” for Salvation......they are straying into Legalism and  you will “ Fall from Grace” as a result....some say that equals Damnation and others say it does not .....you decide....

      lol.....I feel like I am rambling ....sorry.....maybe somebody needs to hear all of this ....God Bless.....

    “ Babes” lack the Faith to REST in the Gospel Of Grace.......they constantly strive to “ Add” to it with  “ do do” this or “don’t” do that.....it even sounds babyish— a bunch of “ do do” 

     The most Mature Believers are those that Understand this Wisdom...”Love God and  live as you please”. When you mess up— and you WILL ‘ mess up “— you BOLDLY approach God at the “ Throne Of Grace” and+do the same things with your Sins that God does—- you put them on the Cross! You LEAVE then their. Then you Forget about them ....just like HE does.....

     The above approach is for  “ meat  eaters” only......Babes are preoccupied with “taste not, touch not”...... what a bore ! What a lack of Faith it reveals ! Babes spend their time criticizing the mature.....they think the mature are just looking for ways to “ sin and get away with it”

     Therein lies the Secret they never get....Knowing I can do what I “want “—- Knowing I can Sin and never be damned for it  makes me want to sin LESS , not more.....God has changed my “ Wants”.....to UNDERSTAND this, you have to LIVE it....Being a “ Free Man in Christ” is to have a diet completely devoid of Milk......The” Freedom” to be a Slave to God.

  16. Sorry....May have accidentally sent this rwo Times....

     

    The “ confusion” that I am attempting to address is the 

    Perverted Doctrine That says that the Way to  Heaven  is by Law-Keeping........ “ Christ is THE END of THE LAW for Righteous”.....

    Some think that to “ Repent” means that you have to grit your  teeth , summon up all of your determination and Will Power and finally make up your mind to “ Stop Sinning” ( become Perfect ) from a certain point, forward....that is an impossibility .

     God has provided  a “ Loop Hole” because you DO have “ to be Perfect” to go to Heaven.....That “ way of escape” of Trying constantly to make yourself “ Worthy” is Found In 1 Cor15:1-4.....

      No more “ TRYING “ to be Saved .....no more carrying around that HUGE BURDEN of Trying ( and FAILING ) to be “ Good Enough” all of the time!  If you will put your Total Faith in just TWO THINGS — Jesus died for your Sins and Rose from the Grave — God will CONSIDER you as somebody who NEVER sinned .....even though in reality your Sins were as deep as Scarlet, and any attempts you made to live a “ Sinless Life” were a Cruel Joke —- a joke straight from Hell....You don’t become “ fit for Heaven”  by being a Moral person ,  a person that is “ good enough” . If you choose to take THAT route.....you aren’t even going by the correct “ Play Book” ....

     God  is not interested in your Pitiful attempts at “ perfection”...... He doesn’t Need it,,,,,He’s surrounded by it.......He has The Holy Spirit and Jesus Himself right beside Him and a Billion Angels That never miss a beat......

         Nope. God is not looking for Moral, “good neighbor Sam” types or those Foolish ones that think they can keep 613 Commandments 24/7  to Reward with Eternal Life.He is looking for those who are “ Dead in Trespasses and Sin” ( everybody) and KNOW It and Turn to Him ( Repentance ) and Put their TOTAL FAITH  in His Son to Save them....

    So what  do “ You”: have to do? How do you perform the Actual Will Of God ? As a matter of fact....what exactly “ IS” that so - called  “ Will Of God?”...... I am happy you asked.....

    The Will Of The Father is that we simply “Believe on the One that He sent”

    When it comes to your Salvation , abandon your attempts to try to “ be worthy”. We are “MADE WORTHY” by simply Believing Paul’s Gospel ( Given to Him personally by Jesus)  Of Pure  Grace! 

    “ The Righteous shall LIVE by FAITH” 

       “ Jesus Paid it All!” 

     

      Isn’t this “ GOOD NEWS?”    You’ d better Believe it !Literally.O

    Was king David confused when he asked God to cleanse him and blot and his transgressions{SINS} He had no peace or joy while he was in backsliding.

    Psalms51 kjv

    1 {To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David, when Nathan the prophet came unto him, after he had gone in to Bathsheba.} Have mercy upon me, O God, according to thy lovingkindness: according unto the multitude of thy tender mercies blot out my transgressions. 2 Wash me throughly from mine iniquity, and cleanse me from my sin. 3 For I acknowledge my transgressions: and my sin is ever before me. 4 Against thee, thee only, have I sinned, and done this evil in thy sight: that thou mightest be justified when thou speakest, and be clear when thou judgest. 5 Behold, I was shapen in iniquity; and in sin did my mother conceive me.
    6 Behold, thou desirest truth in the inward parts: and in the hidden part thou shalt make me to know wisdom. 7 Purge me with hyssop, and I shall be clean: wash me, and I shall be whiter than snow. 8 Make me to hear joy and gladness; that the bones which thou hast broken may rejoice. 9 Hide thy face from my sins, and blot out all mine iniquities.
    10 Create in me a clean heart, O God; and renew a right spirit within me. 11 Cast me not away from thy presence; and take not thy holy spirit from me. 12 Restore unto me the joy of thy salvation; and uphold me with thy free spirit. 13 Then will I teach transgressors thy ways; and sinners shall be converted unto thee.
    14 Deliver me from bloodguiltiness, O God, thou God of my salvation: and my tongue shall sing aloud of thy righteousness. 15 O Lord, open thou my lips; and my mouth shall shew forth thy praise. 16 For thou desirest not sacrifice; else would I give it: thou delightest not in burnt offering. 17 The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit: a broken and a contrite heart, O God, thou wilt not despise.
    18 Do good in thy good pleasure unto Zion: build thou the walls of Jerusalem. 19 Then shalt thou be pleased with the sacrifices of righteousness, with burnt offering and whole burnt offering: then shall they offer bullocks upon thine altar.

    GRACE  PLUS  NOTHING  ---  SAYS  WHO 

    JOHN 1:17  for the law was given by moses ---BUT  GRACE  AND  TRUTH  CAME  BY  JESUS  CHRIST---

    1 CORINTHIANS 3:9  for we are laborers together with  GOD  you are  GODS  husbandry you are  GODS  building

    --3:10-- according to the grace of  GOD  which is given unto me as a wise masterbuilder I have laid the foundation and another buildeth thereon but let every man take heed how he buildeth thereupon 

     

    *******1 JOHN 1:4  I  HAVE  NO  GREATER  JOY  THAN  TO  HEAR  THAT  MY  CHILDREN  WALK  IN  TRUTH*******

    MATTHEW 7:15  BEWARE  OF  FALSE  PROPHETS  WHICH  COME  TO  YOU  IN  SHEEPS  CLOTHING  BUT  INWARDLY  THEY  ARE  RAVENING  WOLVES  

     

    TITUS 2:11  for the grace of  GOD  that bringeth salvation hath appeared unto all men   --2:12-- teaching us that denying ungodliness and worldly lusts we should live sberly righteously and godly --IN  THIS  PRESENT  WORLD--

     

    LOVING  THE  LORD  JESUS  CHRIST 

     

    Ephesians 2:8-9

    GRACE alone means that God Loves, Forgives, and Saves us not because if who we are or what we do —- it’s what “ HE” did and our Faith in that and that alone..In a Nutshell—— “ Nothing But The Blood” For Salvation.....

    Two Things Save us —- Christ’s Blood and our Faith in that Blood.End Of Story..
