Who will end up in the lake of fire, and who will end up judging with God on his throne? Most Christians don’t know the answer to these questions. Let me ask you this, what if God commanded you to do something, would you do it? If God told you to obey him would you? God has asked this before, but in this world of “New Testament Christians”, almost everyone is taught that we don’t have to obey the laws of God any more. Most ministers today teach that all you have to do (Rom.10: 9) is confess that Jesus came in the flesh and you shall be saved. They have deceived you into believing that you need no works, that you need no fruits of faith. But if this is true, then the same question persists: how will God judge the world? What if your minister convinced you that there are two Gods? One God is the father, the “mean killing machine” of the Old Testament, and the other is the “sweet loving” Jesus of the New Testament. What if the God of the old and New Testament were one and the same; what if he said, “Keep my Sabbaths”, would you? What if he said, “Keep My Feasts” because the bible says that these are the Feasts of the Lord, and not the feasts of the Jews, would you? What if he said, “Keep my Commandments and my Judgments” would you keep them or would you allow some false prophet to convince you that they are no longer valid? What if he said, “I have an Everlasting Covenant and that I shed my blood for it,” would you believe him? Can you be saved by faith only? Do works matter? In this text lesson we are by way of the bible, going to prove to you that if you have faith in God then you will bring forth fruits of that faith and works. From the Merriam Webster’s Collegiate Dictionary the definition of the word faith is; believe, trust. Now then how do you show the Lord that you believe in him? By your works, that’s how. Let’s go to the chapter in the bible that people call the faith chapter. Lets go into (Heb.11: 1-2, 7, 17, 24-26, 31, 35, 39-40) (v.1) Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. (v.2) For by it the elders obtained a good report. Now by the elder’s faith (belief) in God they obtained a good report. But how did theses elders show God that they had faith (belief) in him? Let’s take a look at some of them. (v.7) By faith Noah, being warned of God of things not seen yet, moved with fear, prepared an ark to the saving of his house; by which he condemned the world, and became heir of the righteousness, which is by faith. How did Noah prove to God that he had faith in him? By his works! Noah moved with faith and fear and began preparing the ark. (v.17) By faith Abraham, when he was tried, offered up Isaac: and he that received the promises offered up his only begotten son. Now here is the father of the faithful, and how did he show God the he had faith in him? By his works! The Lord God told Abraham to go and sacrifice his son, his only son. And Abraham’s faith was so strong that he was seconds’ way from killing his only son when the angel of the Lord stopped him, now that’s truly fruits of faith. (v.24) By faith Moses, when he was come to years, refused to be called the son of Pharaoh’s daughter; (v.25) Choosing rather to suffer affliction with the people of God, than to enjoy the pleasures of sin for a season; (v.26) Esteeming the reproach of Christ greater riches than the treasures in Egypt: for he had respect unto the recompense of the reward. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How did Moses show his faith? By his works! But through faith he chose to suffer affliction with the people of God rather than enjoy the pleasures of sin by continuing to allow himself to be called the son of Pharaoh’s daughter: esteeming the reproach of Christ greater riches than the treasures in Egypt. You see Moses knew exactly whom he was dealing with, and it’s best that you learn that the God of the Old Testament is the same God of the New Testament and his name is Jesus. (v.31) By faith the harlot Ra’-hab perished not with them that believed not, when she had received the spies with peace. The Harlot Ra’- hab showed her faith in God by her works! She hid the spies sent by Joshua, and the Lord blessed her and her family by saving them when he took down the city of Jericho. (v.35) Women received their dead raised to life again: and others were tortured, not accepting deliverance; that they might obtain a better resurrection: How strong is your faith, will you endure affliction, torture, imprisonment, stoning, and even die for the word of God? These people showed their faith in God by their works, not accepting deliverance because they were looking for a better resurrection. What’s a better resurrection? The first resurrection is a better resurrection because if you are raised in the first resurrection you will not be judged; you will be doing the judging. But all of these people we just read about showed you fruits of faith they showed you works. (v.39) And these all, having obtained a good report through faith, received not the promise: They received a good report through faith. But how did they show their faith (belief) in God? By their works, and they all died with a good report having not received the promise. (v.40) God having provided some better things for us, that they without us should not be made perfect. Everybody that has a better resurrection coming will receive it at the same time. That’s why it says that they without us will not be made perfect. Who is perfect? God is perfect. God is recreating God. That’s another lesson for another time. Lets go into (Matt. 7:21-23) (v.21) Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father, which is in heaven. You mean you must do more than call on the name of the Lord to enter into the kingdom of heaven? (Which will be set up on this earth)? (v.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? (v.23) And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity. Now this is not the harlot, the thief, or the murder, these are religious people; some had the power to cast out devils. And what did they put before the Lord? Their works! It’s obvious that their iniquity overrode their wonderful works. But they put their works on the table before the Lord, that’s what you are going to be judged by, your works!

To me it is a mystery we know in part. Of course I don't have all the answers and I agree that we know in part. But we are in a time where Jesus say in Matthew 24: 14 And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come. Now we are pretty much at the end and it time to for us to learn as a nation of people as true Christians, it's time for salvation. It may seem like I know a lot and that's because satan has deceive the whole world. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For with the heart one believes and is justified, and with the mouth one confesses and is saved. (Rom 10:9-10) ...what additional thing must one do to be saved??? Only that yowm. BUT. IF we truly believe FROM the heart......then we walk HOLY as HE IS HOLY. the tree , its branches are , THEY KNOWN by the fruit they produce. Many say they believe in JESUS and many confess his name. But as You know yowm, WHY do you call me LORD , LORD and yet DO NOT the things which I say. And what I bring next will answer the question in the opening paragraph, which said HOW will GOD JUDGE THE WORLD. By the SON of course. AND WHAT DID JESUS say will be our judge at the last day. MY WORDS will be your JUDGE. Jesus built his ministry by saying ALL who hear and DO my sayings is like a man that built his house upon as STONE. But all who heard and did not , twisted them , omitted them , OH my , that is sinking sand and they wont make it at the end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grace ALONE and ONLY BY GRACE. HOWEVER lets give the true biblical definition of Grace. FOR the grace of GOD which brings salvation has appeared, TEACHING, oh YES , TEACHING US to deny ungodliness , wordly lusts to be walking soberly, RIGHTESOUSLY and godly in this present world. AND GOD DONT WALK IN SIN NOR DARKNESS. thus let paul sum it up. IF you walk after the SPIRIT you shall NOT NOT fulfill the lusts of the flesh. And those who are CHRISTS have CRUCIFED the affections and lusts OF THE FLESH. Let none quench the SPIRIT , let none be hardened by the deciefulness of sin, let all exhort one another daily, encouraging , warning , rebuking , compassion, being grave and being serious. Cause we live in days of upmost evil and the wicked one sleeps not as many think. NO he is busy capturing all in a net of a religion of thieves and robbers INTERFIATH. A lie spawned from the upmost darkness itself, but propagandized to sound like LOVE. HE is a liar and the FATHER OF IT, so heed not his prophets nor his dark spirit . The all inclusive world peace religion is of , SATAN himself. the darkest of the dark appearing as light. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bro Tan seems to be wanting to introduce something other than the simple Gospel which Paul reiterated a number of times e.g. 1Cor 15:1-4, which will only land one up in a Galatians 1:8-9 predicament. I did not read all of what he said. IF you spotted something off. you warn and do so with hopes that bro tan will be corrected. I suppose I should go back and read it now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did not paul and the original apostels say what they did about the GENTILES. No where do we HAVE TO KEEP the feast days. SURE its a wonderful thing to do and may you be blessed in doing it. I see what you spotted yowm. I want to encourage bro tan. Let us not judge in meat , drink , holy days or Sabbath. DO it yourself and do encourage others to do it with you. But never condmen one who does eat or who does not eat , who keeps one day holy above another or who keeps all days the same. That we should not bicker and fight over. IF bro tan , in his conscious believes he should. THEN BRO TAN DO IT . And when you celebrate a feast day ask us to JOIN you in doing so. These are acts of willfull worship. Beautfiful too. But let none condmen the other for not keeping the feast days or etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
