The most amazing thing about salvation is that God sacrificed His son for the sins of all of us. . If you believe that -- You are saved. If you don't believe that , you go to eternal hell and damnation.
The Bible ( in fact the entire Bible) is hearsay. It would never be evidence in any court-- ever. Adam and Eve? You don't believe that? The old testament is written by Bedouin tribesmen from hand me down oral tales. All the books in the New testament are written 70 to 130 years after the death and resurrection of Christ.Hearsay!Pleas don't give me that "all scripture is God BREATHED." What scripture?
the Bible doesn't have first hand eyewitnesses.But all history books are hearsay.
And yet , we see the death and life of Jesus (after 30 years of age-- the story leaves out about 18 years!!) in these" hand me down" 4 level hearsay legends and we see the evidence of the death of those who believed so strongly they did not recant.
Now grant you, if I go to Kabul and praise Jesus ,the only way to salvation, and get stoned by godless moslems , that doesn't make me anything but several of these actual eyewitnesses could have recanted.
I think James, for example,was cashing in on his step brother and got caught and killed but he was painfully jealous of Jesus and wanted all to revert to the old testament Torah legalism that God had ended. He wanted to diminish Jesus as a " Savior" .But these other uneducated and unable to write anything "Disciples" died, not giving up what they saw!!
The "Bible" is not to be worshiped!! If you do-- stop. It is idolatry. The Bible is a book put together in 393 A.D.,. 360 years after Christ was raised. They left out ( at the"counsel of Hippo") the only eye witness book!! Bartholomew!! You can't make that up!! Eusabious discounted much of the process used to put the book together for Constantine .
New Testament Books which are now accepted by Christians, but which were for a time rejected, are Hebrews, James, 1 Peter, 2 Peter, 2 John, 3 John, Jude, Revelation!!
John isn't John!!( Revelation might be John -- nobody can understand that book) but Mark was not a witness!!Mark hung around with Peter maybe. Luke may have known Paul but he saw nothing. The writer of Matthew was not even born when Christ died.
Now , Paul is something. He was smitten by the Holy Spirit. His writing are really something although he contradicts himself real bad. Take for example his clear statement to all believers in Rome that the law was history and yet he reimposes the law with Women covering their head in worship and keeping their mouths shut except to address their feeble questions only to their husbands. Believe that? "WORD OF GOD" ?
The Bible has errors beyond counting. For those of you that worship the Bible as the "WORD da GOD" go now and read Matthew 1, then flip over to Luke 3:23. Which linage from David to Joseph is correct? Then ask yourself----- Joseph??? What difference does that make? God is the Father of Jesus-- right? NOT JOSEPH!! Don't tell me that is the linage of MARY!!! Does not say that!!. Come on!! Look at what Christ said on the cross in the Gospel. There are 3 different versions. Which one is the "WORD da GOD"?
We are killing our faith with pushing this non sense!!New believers are driven away. Those of us who have believed with God and His Son believe in HIM, not the hearsay book that is like worshiping BALE or Mary ( talk about a false God-- Mary was a vessel-- that is it.) Satan uses the Bible diversion to avert the real truth like the Catholics do with Mary!!
Look-- Did you know that the word "Church" is not in the original text. ? The Greek was Ekkesia. Look it up!! It means one thing! "The Called OUT"!! It does NOT mean "gathering " or "assembly". It very simple to know that. Greek has very clear words for "gathering " and "assembly" . It means BELIEVERS!!! When you see "church" it is a false insertion in the King James English Bible to install CONTROL on the "believers" not written until the 1630s!!. The origin of the word was Circe or Kirke , meaning the Pagan practice of gathering in a CIRCLE!!
Tithing??/ There is no brick building you must pay for!! There were no paid preachers!!! WAKE UP!!. It is you and the Son of God as joint heirs!!.
There is no "TITHING" in the New Testament!! In fact. Jesus would not pay the tithe (temple tax) in Matthew 17 !! Read it!! It was the "tithe" . Tithe is a lie!!! It is preached to make house payments and car payments and 401 k retirement payments off of suckers like you when you are saved already "IF YOU BELIEVE THAT JESUS IN THE SON OF GOD!! ( John 3:16) You cannot be saved by works. The money is all God's money ANYWAY!! Right? Do you pay "the temple tax"?Did you know that Christ was crucified the same week as He threw the "money changers" out of the Temple? Who were these " money changers". look at the Greek!! They were collecting the Temple tax -- The Tithe !!!! When a Jew went to pay, they did not accept the Roman coin!! They converted to silver to give to the Priests!!
Jesus said in Mathew 17 that a "king does not tax his children and we are the children of GOD"!! Stop paying these liars in the name of God!! ALL MONEY and material things BELONG TO GOD!! You do not have to pay some man or brick building as agents for God!! Wake up and believe in Jesus who SAVED YOU. You are being diverted by Satan.
You don't have to be baptized either!! None of the 12 disciples were baptized-- right? check it out ( Paul was baptized IN THE SPIRIT-- not water) . If you want to believe that eunuch on a chariot from 2000 miles south in Ethiopia was baptized in Gaza ( where there is no place to be submersed) and the Philip flew away to the clouds -- then go ahead. But this is the Devil's fable-- NOT GOD'S TRUTH!! The Thief on the cross was NOT baptized in water!!
Yes, Jesus was baptized , but that was because it was tradition for the "chief priest". You don't think He had to be baptized, do you? What a legalistic joke..
Throw off the yoke ! Break into the sun light of Jesus who saved us from sins past , present and future!!. If you don't go to Africa to save Ubangi, do you think that is a sin? Wow-- you are saved of ALL YOUR SINS!!! Obedience? Obedience to what? Give us a list!! The only command of Jesus was to love God and love thy neighbor as yourself ( get rid of that King James vernacular because he stuck " Church" in the place of "Believers")
"Sin" ? What is sin? Name them all so we know what not to do!! Sins of commission and omissions!! Don't give me a bunch of ambiguity!! Tell me if I can kill someone breaking in to my house to rape my wife. That is a sin? Can I kill a WAHHABI Sunni to keep him from killing MORE CHILDREN and innocent Americans? Get a brain. God so love us He gave his Son that who ever believes that has eternal life. Right? What are we doing with the Truth of Salvation ?
WE live in respect for our God who sent his Son to FREE US from the tyranny of LEGALISM which God sent to hell.Amen,
