I can understand why religious people are much more concerned with being part of a church than finding the very truth for themselves. We need family. We need support. We need love! Who wants to take a path that results in loneliness and isolation? What is in them? Weakness, longing, fear, and compromise, because of THE NEED FOR THOSE THINGS.. Jesus knew the path he chose would lead to a most painful and in a sense, humiliating death! Although the very opposite of Blasphemy is True of Him! In fact he loved God LIKE NONE OTHER!. “But that the world may know that I love the Father; and as the Father gave me commandment, even so I do. Arise, let us go hence.” Can anyone today follow Jesus? The righteous perisheth, and no man layeth to heart: The churches have been taken over and even started secretly by secret societies. These secret societies in fact worship the chief enemy of God, satan the devil! |
Blessed and holy [is] he that hath part in the first resurrection: on such the second death hath no power,
but they shall be priests of God and of Christ, and shall reign with him a thousand years.
in which the earth will be brought back to the gardenlike state of perfection as was in Eden. They will rule as both Kings and priests with him, chosen by God from among mankind for this very special service. Their selection and choosing began
with the ministry of Jesus and ends with the sealing of their final number, which is 144,000.
have sealed the servants of our God in their foreheads. And I heard the number of them which were sealed: [and there were] sealed an hundred [and] forty [and] four thousand of all the tribes of the children of Israel. Rev. 7:3,4.
now , the timing of the first resurrection and prove it by scripture.
Psa 115:16 The heaven, [even] the heavens, [are] the LORD’S: but the earth hath he given to the children of men.
There are many who believe their loved ones are immediately raised to heaven upon their death. The bible teaches something entirely different.
Ecc 9:5 For the living know that they shall die: but the dead know not any thing.
The hope of living and reigning with Christ in heaven was obviously non-existant before his first coming. That is why those of the Kingdom are greater than even all of the prophets before them.. they will reign with Christ.
Luk 7:28 For I say unto you, Among those that are born of women there is not a greater prophet than John the Baptist: but he that is least in the kingdom of God is greater than he.
Jesus makes it plain in these words that no man has yet assended into heaven…
Jhn 3:13 And no man hath ascended up to heaven, but he that came down from heaven, [even] the Son of man which is in heaven.
This is still the case, as the first resurrection has not yet occured which we can see by scripture.
When will it occur?
For this we say unto you by the word of the Lord, that we which are alive [and] remain unto the coming of the Lord shall not prevent them which are asleep. For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first: Then we which are alive [and] remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord. Wherefore comfort one another with these words.1Th 4:15-18
When will the Lord descend with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, with the trump of God?
Mat 24:29 Immediately after the tribulation of those days shall the sun be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken: And then shall appear the sign of the
Son of man in heaven: and then shall all the tribes of the earth mourn, and they shall see the Son of man coming in the clouds of heaven with power and great glory. And he shall send his angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they shall
gather together his elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other.
Armageddon is soon to follow.
And he gathered them together into a place called in the Hebrew tongue Armageddon. Rev. 16:16.
These ones of the first resurrection will be with Christ and take part in this battle of Armageddon. They are promised by Christ in the book of Revelation…
And he that overcometh, and keepeth my works unto the end, to him will I give power over the nations:And he shall rule them with a rod of iron; as the vessels of a potter shall they be broken to shivers: even as I received of my Father.Rev 2:27
While Babylon is destroyed by her lovers, the nations of this earth who fight against Christ at his coming will be destroyed directly by him, and those of the first resurrection.
Rev. 17:14 These shall make war with the Lamb, and the Lamb shall overcome them; for he is Lord of lords and King of kings:
and they [that are] with him called, and chosen, and faithful.
Trinity?
Jesus said..
Everyone who will say a word against The Son of Man, it will be forgiven him, but whoever will speak against The Spirit of Holiness, it will not be forgiven.
But God’s Spirit is not a ghost or a spirit entity!
His Spirit is everywhere
David said there is no place where he could escape from God’s Spirit.
It is the Spirit of the truth and Jesus said
Everyone who is on the side of the truth listens to my voice
People who love the lie are not with Jesus, but with satan!
In fact the people who sin against the Holy Spirit are sinning against the Truth!
They hate reality and therefore lie and sin against the Spirit of the truth!
People who speak against Jesus might be listening to lies and therefor speak against Jesus blindly, and as Jesus said if you were blind you would have no sin.
But sinning against the very Spirit of the Truth is another matter.
They are not blind but WILLFUL liars!!
That is what Jesus warned the hypocrites who said he was demon possessed although they saw his many miracles
The Son is subject to the Father and learned obedience to the Father by the things he suffered
It is impossible for God to lie.
But the Devil is the father of the lie and a murderer!!
And God sees through all of your lies!
But those who have sinned against the Spirit do not care
In fact they know what they are doing and will continue to do it that they might reap the reward of everlasting destruction.
Too bad for them!
They deserve it!
This word is not found anywhere in the Holy Scriptures. It is a doctrine of men. Seeking to hold on to Babylonian ideas of triune gods, it was solidified into Catholic doctrine at the Nicene council held in 325 .
Isn’t it clear by these words of Jesus?
Mat 24:36 But of that day and hour knoweth no [man], no, not the angels of heaven, but my Father only.
In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
This is the correct translation
John is here making reference to the account in Genesis.
In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.
The word for God is Elohim here which is the plural of El.
And God said, Let us make man in our image
They shall perish; but thou remainest; and they all shall wax old as doth a garment;
Yes, Paul is saying that it was Jesus who laid the foundations of the earth without question.
The name Jehovah in Hebrew is Yod He Waw He These hebrew letters are .
Each letter is a word. Put in each letter one at a time in google translate.
The translation is “The God and God”
The Father and the Son.
This is why Moses says the Israelites said they did not know God’s name. They did not understand the name! But even Abraham knew the name. He even names a place Jehovah-Jireh. YHWH Provides, after God provided a ram for Abraham to sacrifice in place of his son.
So God provides another clue in understanding this name. He says I will be which I will be.
Which is the word for word translation of the Hebrew words. אֶ הְ יֶה אֲשֶׁ ר אֶ הְ יֶה
The immortality of the soul?
If this was the case, what did Jesus die for? In fact the scriptures teach of Jesus that…….He alone possess immortality.
1 Tim. 6: 15& 16 the King of kings and Lord of lords,
who alone possesses immortality and dwells in unapproachable light,
Yes the soul can die…
Behold, all souls are mine; as the soul of the father, so also the soul
of the son is mine: the soul that sinneth, it shall die.Eze 18:4
Mat 10:28 And fear not them which kill the body, but are not able to kill the soul:
but rather fear him which is able to destroy both soul and body in hell.
Then what is Hell?
Hell is the Greek word for Sheol in the hebrew tongue. Sheol is the grave. Examine these words of scripture.
For You will not abandon my soul to Sheol;
Nor will You allow Your Holy One to undergo decay.
Psalm 16:10
Act 2:27 Because thou wilt not leave my soul in hell, neither wilt thou suffer thine Holy One to see corruption.
Did David go to hell? Yes! Or, No, but he did die and was laid in a grave.
Sheol (ùàåì) is the Hebrew language word denoting the “abode of the dead”; the “underworld“, “the common grave of
mankind” or “pit”.
The lake of fire denotes total and everlasting destruction.The second death This is how these words of Revelation can be
understood.
Rev 20:14 And death and hell were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death.
Ecclesiastes 9:5 For the living know that they will die, but the dead know nothing; they have no further reward, and even their name is forgotten.
In the sweat of thy face shalt thou eat bread, till thou return unto the ground; for out of it wast thou taken: for dust thou art, and unto dust shalt thou return. Genesis 3:19
For that which befalleth the sons of men befalleth beasts; even one thing befalleth them: as the one dieth, so dieth the other; yea, they have all one breath; so that a man hath no preeminence above a beast: for all is vanity. All go unto one place; all are of the dust, and all turn to dust again. Ecclesiastes 3:19,20
And this is why Christ died to pay for our sin which brought forth DEATH!
And yes, the dead are actually DEAD!
