  • Deflections | Answers 4 Saints

    Paul told us to test all things to see if they were from God. do they include His law? Deflections are the Greatest sin The shortest verse in the English Bible is "Jesus wept" found in John 11:35. It has only 10 letters and two words. In Luke, Jesus weeps (eklausen, meaning to sob aloud) as he enters Jerusalem. He grieves because the people rejected his offer of peace, refused to turn to God, and would soon face destruction as a consequence. In short, the devil's deflection on Matthew 5:18–19 works by convincing people that taking Yeshua’s exact words seriously is somehow a violation of his grace. It redirects the mind from humble obedience to theological technicalities that excuse setting aside the commands. Matthew 17-19 17 Do not think that I have come to abolish the Law or the Prophets. I have not come to abolish them, but to fulfill them. 18 For I tell you truly, until heaven and earth pass away, not a single jot, not a stroke of a pen, will disappear from the Law until everything is accomplished. 19 So then, whoever breaks one of the least of these commandments and teaches others to do likewise will be called least in the kingdom of heaven; but whoever practices and teaches them will be called great in the kingdom of heaven.… Prof the law was fulfilled by Yeshua: He was the only person in the entire Bible that never sinned, He showed us how to love Yehovah the creator ,He showed how to love our fellow man , He show us how to keep the Sabbath Holy, He never ate anything unclean, and He always kept all of Yehovah appointed . "It is easy to claim the name of Christ, but true discipleship is shown through obedience. Many claim to follow Him while actively living against everything He commanded." John 3:36 ("whoever does not obey the Son shall not see life, but the wrath of God remains on him") I have not come to abolish them , 1 John 3:8, which states that "whoever makes a practice of sinning is of the devil". Ecclesiastes 12:13 –– "Fear God and keep His commandments, for this is man’s all. Proverbs 28:9: " He that turneth away his ear from hearing the law, even his prayer shall be abomination. 1 John 2:4, w hich says: "Whoever says 'I know him' but does not keep his commandments is a liar, and the truth is not in that person." John 14:15 "If you love me, you will keep my commandments" Matthew 19:17 , "If you want to enter life, keep the commandments". Revelation 12:17. The text states that the dragon (identified as the devil and Satan) was angry with the woman and went to make war with the rest of her offspring—defined as those who keep God's commandments Revelation 13:7 , which states that the beast empowered by the dragon was allowed "to make war with the saints, and to overcome will be called least in the kingdom of heaven; Luke 7: 28 I tell you, among those born of women there is no one greater than John; yet the one who is least in the kingdom of God is greater than he.” Matthew 11:11 Verily I say unto you, among them that are born of women, there hath not risen a greater than John the Baptist; notwithstanding, he that is least in the Kingdom of Heaven is greater than he. (Because no one on earth has been to heaven ) The Core Connection When people deflect Scripture, they usually do not burn the Bible; instead, they remove the commands they find uncomfortable by declaring them "least" or obsolete, or they add human loopholes to bypass God's true intent (as Yeshua rebuked in Mark 7:9–13). Matthew 5:18–19 makes clear that in God's eyes, even what humans consider "least" remains fully binding. Below are the primary biblical passages that explicitly prohibit adding to, taking away from, or modifying God's word and commandments: Here is the complete, unified breakdown bringing together every point—from altering words, names, and titles to adopting pagan holidays, eating unclean, rejecting God's appointments, and profaning the Sabbath—and the explicit judgments Scripture attaches to them. The Deflection: Weaponizing Grace The core deception pits Yeshua’s salvation against his instructions—tricking believers into viewing obedience as "legalism" rather than the natural fruit of love. 1. Redefining "Fulfill" (Matt. 5:17) The Trick: Treating "fulfill" as "terminate and throw away." The Reality: In first-century Hebrew idiom, to fulfill meant to correctly interpret and live out the Torah's full intent. Yeshua came to demonstrate how to keep it, not to dismiss it. 2. False Dichotomy: "Love vs. Rules" The Trick : Framing commands as rigid legalism and "love" as abstract freedom. The Reality: Yeshua defined love through action: "If you love me, keep my commands" (John 14:15). The commands define what love looks like in practice. 3. Perverting Grace The Trick : Rebranding grace as an excuse for apathy toward God's standards. The Reality: Grace is divine empowerment (Titus 2:11–12). It cleanses the past and transforms the heart so obedience becomes a joy. 4. Theological Loopholes The Trick: Using complex technicalities to bypass Matthew 5:18–19. The Reality: It creates a state where people cite treatises to excuse setting aside the very commands Yeshua warned never to relax. The Ultimate Irony: It turns distrust of Yeshua's direct words into a false badge of "spiritual maturity," making people feel enlightened precisely because they have explained away the Sermon on the Mount.

Altering God's Word & Loss of Eternal Life Directly modifying, taking away from, or adding human commentary to the text forfeits access to eternal inheritance: Revelation 22:18–19 "If anyone adds anything to them, God will add to that person the plagues described in this scroll. And if anyone takes words away from this scroll... God will take away from that person any share in the tree of life and in the Holy City..." The Judgment: Direct assignment of written plagues and removal of one's name/share from the Tree of Life and the Heavenly City. 2. Deception, Changing Truth, and the Lake of Fire Creating false doctrines, fabricating traditions, or distorting scriptural facts places a person under the category of deception: Revelation 21:8 & Proverbs 30:6 "...and all liars—they will be consigned to the fiery lake of burning sulfur... Do not add to his words, or he will rebuke you and prove you a liar." The Judgment: Divine rebuke, public exposure as a deceiver, and final condemnation in the Lake of Fire alongside those who reject God's authority. 3. Profaning and Substituting the Sacred Names Erasing, changing, or replacing the covenant name Yehovah (יְהוָה) or the redemptive name Yeshua (יֵשׁוُעַ) with human alternatives violates the core command regarding His identity: Exodus 20:7 & Jeremiah 23:26–27 "You shall not take the name of the Lord [Yehovah] your God in vain, for the Lord will not hold him guiltless... who try to make My people forget My name..." The Judgment: Being held guilty before the heavenly court and suffering spiritual blindness for lowering His divine identity to human tradition. 4. Adopting Pagan Holidays & Mixing Worship Customs Importing pagan customs, celebrations, and cultural holidays into the worship of the Creator is explicitly condemned as adding to His word: Deuteronomy 12:30–32 "Be careful not to be ensnared... saying, 'How do these nations serve their gods? We will do likewise.' You must not worship the Lord your God in their way... do not add to it or take away from it." The Judgment: Falling into spiritual entrapment and practicing what God classifies as a detestable abomination. 5. Eating Unclean Things & Rejecting Purity Instructions Dismissing God's dietary laws in favor of personal appetite or cultural preference is identified as active rebellion against His sanctification: Isaiah 66:15–17 "For behold, the Lord will come with fire... Those who sanctify themselves... eating swine’s flesh and the abomination and the mouse, shall be consumed together, says the Lord." The Judgment: Facing direct destruction alongside the lawless at the return of the Lord. 6. Rejecting God's Appointed Times (Moedim) Substituting man-made religious calendars and holidays for the eternal appointed feasts listed in Leviticus 23 leads to divine abandonment: Leviticus 23:2, 14 & Hosea 2:11 "The appointed times of the Lord... shall be a statute forever... I will also cause all her mirth to cease, her feast days, her New Moons, her Sabbaths, and all her appointed feasts." The Judgment: Withdrawal of true spiritual insight, leaving individuals in empty, powerless religious ritual. 7. Profaning the Seventh-Day Sabbath Setting aside, altering, or declaring God's holy Sabbath done away with is highlighted as a primary trigger for divine wrath: Ezekiel 22:26, 31 "Her priests have violated My law... they have hidden their eyes from My Sabbaths, so that I am profaned among them... Therefore I have poured out My indignation on them; I have consumed them with the fire of My wrath." The Judgment: Complete loss of God's presence, exposure to spiritual deception, and direct divine indignation. Here is the complete, unified breakdown bringing together every point—from altering words, names, and titles to adopting pagan holidays, eating unclean, rejecting God's appointments, and profaning the Sabbath—and the explicit judgments Scripture attaches to them. 1.

Therefore I have poured out My indignation on them; I have consumed them with the fire of My wrath." The Judgment: Complete loss of God's presence, exposure to spiritual deception, and direct divine indignation. 1. Deuteronomy 4:2 (NKJV) "You shall not add to the word which I command you, nor take from it, that you may keep the commandments of the Lord your God which I command you." 2. Deuteronomy 12:32 (NKJV) "Whatever I command you, be careful to observe it; you shall not add to it nor take away from it." 3. Proverbs 30:5–6 (NKJV) 5 "Every word of God is pure; He is a shield to those who put their trust in Him." 6 "Do not add to His words, lest He rebuke you, and you be found a liar." 4. Matthew 5:18–19 (NKJV, modified) 18 "For assuredly, I say to you, till heaven and earth pass away, one jot or one tittle will by no means pass from the law till all is fulfilled." 19 "Whoever therefore breaks one of the least of these commandments, and teaches men so, shall be called least in the kingdom of heaven; but whoever does and teaches them, he shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven." 5. Revelation 22:18–19 (NKJV) 18 "For I testify to everyone who hears the words of the prophecy of this book: If anyone adds to these things, God will add to him the plagues that are written in this book;" 19 "and if anyone takes away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God shall take away his part from the Book of Life, from the holy city, and from the things which are written in this book." Actions & Consequences Deuteronomy 4:2 & 12:32 Adding to or taking away from divine decrees Inability to truly keep the Lord’s commandments Proverbs 30:6 Adding human thoughts or rules to God's words Divine rebuke and being found a liar Matthew 5:19 Loosening or removing the "least" command Called least in the kingdom of heaven Revelation 22:18–19 Adding to or removing text from prophetic revelation Receiving the plagues written in the book; removal from the Book of Life Jeremiah 26:2: The Command to Declare the Whole Word Without Diminishing It In Jeremiah 26:2, God explicitly commands the prophet Jeremiah to speak His message in its entirety, warning him against holding back or softening a single word to accommodate human sensitivities. Jeremiah 26:2 (NKJV) "Thus says the LORD: 'Stand in the court of the LORD’s house, and speak to all the cities of Judah, who come to worship in the LORD’s house, all the words that I command you to speak to them. Do not diminish a word.'" Key Insights from the Text "Do Not Diminish a Word": The Hebrew word used for "diminish" is gara, which means to subtract, withhold, trim down, or take away. God specifically instructs that not a single word can be removed or softened to make the message more comfortable or acceptable to the hearers. The Setting (The Temple Court): Jeremiah was sent to the very place where religious people gathered to worship. The warning was given directly to the religious leaders and worshippers who were inclined to selectively accept God's comfort while deflecting His warnings. The Purpose of Uncompromising Truth (Jeremiah 26:3): God explains why every word must be delivered without subtraction: "Perhaps everyone will listen and turn from his evil way, that I may relent concerning the calamity which I purpose to bring on them because of the evil of their doings." Trimming or diminishing God's warning deprives people of the chance to fully understand their standing and genuinely repent. Parallel Warnings Against Withholding God's Word PassageThe Command / PrincipleThe Severity Jeremiah 26:2"Do not diminish a word."Withholding truth prevents genuine repentance. Ezekiel 3:17–18The watchman must warn the wicked with God's exact words.If the watchman fails to warn them, their blood is required at his hand. Acts 20:26–27 Paul declares: "I am innocent of the blood of all men. For I have not shunned to declare to you the whole counsel of God."True faithfulness requires delivering the entire truth without omitting difficult doctrines. Scriptural Definitions of Misusing or Deflecting God's Word The Bible addresses several ways people reject, distort, or deflect Scripture rather than submitting to it: Wresting / Distortion (Strebloo): Taking Scripture out of its intended context to force a desired outcome or opinion. Substituting Human Tradition: Setting aside explicit commandments in favor of human traditions or personal rationalizations. Partial Obedience: Accepting passages that align with personal desires while ignoring or explaining away inconvenient commandments. Pharisaical Deflection: Using theological debates or legalistic technicalities to evade the underlying moral principles of God's law. Key Scriptures & Warnings Scripture Reference Concept / Action Theological Consequence / Punishment 2 Peter 3:16 Distortion ("untaught and unstable people twist [Scripture] to their own destruction")Spiritual ruin and destruction. Mark 7:8–13 Setting aside God's word for human tradition ("making the word of God of no effect")Hypocrisy; spiritual blindness and rejection by God. Revelation 22:18–19 Adding to or taking away from prophetic words Loss of share in the tree of life; receiving the plagues described. Galatians 1:8–9 Preaching a modified or perverted gospelCondemnation (Anathema / eternal separation). Matthew 7:21–23 Hearing or using Scripture without practicing obedience Rejection by Christ at final judgment ("I never knew you; depart from me"). Matthew 5:18–19 addresses the authority, permanence, and obligation of God's law, specifically warning against setting aside or misrepresenting even the smallest part of Scripture. Matthew 5:18–19 ( NKJV) 18 "For assuredly, I say to you, till heaven and earth pass away, one jot or one tittle will by no means pass from the law till all is fulfilled. 19 "Whoever therefore breaks one of the least of these commandments, and teaches men so, shall be called least in the kingdom of heaven; but whoever does and teaches them, he shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven." Breakdown & Key Definitions Permanence of Scripture ("Jot" and "Tittle"): Jot (Yod ): The smallest letter in the Hebrew alphabet. Tittle: The minute stroke or pen-mark that distinguishes similar Hebrew letters. Meaning: Jesus emphasizes that every minute detail of God's word is intentional, authoritative, and enduring. None of it can be discarded or treated as obsolete. The Act of Deflecting or Relaxing the Law: Verse 19 explicitly addresses those who "break" (Greek: luo, meaning to loosen, dissolve, set aside, or declare non-binding) the commandments and "teach men so" (leading others to minimize or deflect those instructions). The Consequences & Judgment Action / Stance Toward ScriptureDirect Consequence (Verse 19) Loosening, ignoring, or teaching others to minimize even the smallest commandment"Shall be called least in the kingdom of heaven" Practicing and teaching the fullness of God's commandments"Shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven" The Biblical Prohibition Against Adding or Removing Scripture repeatedly warns that altering God's word —whether by addition, subtraction, or reclassifying what is "least" or "greatest"—is a severe offense against divine authority. Key Scriptures on Adding and Subtracting Deuteronomy 4:2 & 12:32: "You shall not add to the word which I command you, nor take from it, that you may keep the commandments of the Lord your God..." Proverbs 30:5–6: "Every word of God is pure... Do not add to His words, lest He rebuke you, and you be found a liar." Revelation 22:18–19: "If anyone adds to these things, God will add to him the plagues that are written in this book; and if anyone takes away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God shall take away his part from the Book of Life..." How "Adding and Removing" Relates to "Least and Greatest" In Matthew 5:18–19, Yeshua bridges these concepts by declaring that not even a single "jot or tittle" (the smallest strokes of text) can be removed. Passage Action Status / Consequence Matthew 5:19 Loosening / Removing the "Least": Breaking or setting aside small commandments and teaching others to treat them as irrelevant."Called least in the kingdom of heaven" Matthew 5:19 Upholding All: Keeping and teaching both major principles and minor commands faithful to God's intent."Called great in the kingdom of heaven" Proverbs 30:6 Adding Human Doctrines: Elevating human traditions or extra-biblical rules to the level of Scripture.Rebuked by God; found to be a liar Revelation 22:19Removing / Stripping Scripture: Erasing, deleting, or outright rejecting parts of God's revealed word.Loss of share in the tree of life and holy city The Core Connection When people deflect Scripture, they usually do not burn the Bible; instead, they remove the commands they find uncomfortable by declaring them "least" or obsolete, or they add human loopholes to bypass God's true intent (as Yeshua rebuked in Mark 7:9–13). Matthew 5:18–19 makes clear that in God's eyes, even what humans consider "least" remains fully binding. Jesus on Human Tradition vs. God's Commandments In Matthew 15:1–9 and Mark 7:1–13,Yeshua directly confronts religious leaders for using human tradition to bypass, void, or deflect explicit Scripture. The Primary Passages Matthew 15:3, 6, 8–9 (NKJV) 3 "He answered and said to them, 'Why do you also transgress the commandment of God because of your tradition?'... 6 'Then he need not honor his father or mother.' Thus you have made the commandment of God of no effect by your tradition... 8 'These people draw near to Me with their mouth, and honor Me with their lips, but their heart is far from Me. 9 And in vain they worship Me, teaching as doctrines the commandments of men.'" How Deflection Works: The "Corban" Example (Mark 7:9–13) Yeshua singles out a specific practice of Deflecting to show how people legally manipulate language to void God's law: Summary of Consequences Method of Distortion Spiritual Outcome Scriptural Reference Substituting tradition for Scripture Worship becomes in vain (useless before God)Matthew 15:9 Using religious loopholes to avoid duty Transgressing God's direct commandments Matthew 15:3 Elevating human rules over divine intent Laying aside and nullifying God's wordMark 7:8, 13 The Authority and Integrity of Matthew 5:18 Matthew 5:18 stands as one of the strongest statements in Scripture regarding the absolute preservation, authority, and unchangeable nature of God's word. Matthew 5:18 (NKJV) "For assuredly, I say to you, till heaven and earth pass away, one jot or one tittle will by no means pass from the law till all is fulfilled." Core Warnings Embedded in Matthew 5:18 Warning Against Erasing "Minor" Details: By pointing to the yod (smallest letter) and tittle (smallest stroke of a pen), Yeshua warns that no detail of God’s word is irrelevant, dispensable, or open to human erasure. Warning Against Human Expiration Dates: The phrase "till heaven and earth pass away" establishes that human cultures, opinions, or changing times do not have the authority to declare God's law expired or invalid. Warning Against Partial Fulfillment: The law remains fully authoritative until "all is fulfilled." Attempting to dismiss portions of Scripture before God’s complete redemption plan is realized is a direct violation of Christ’s standard. Cross-References: The Immutable Nature of Scripture Scripture Reference Parallel Concept Consequence / Warning Isaiah 40:8 "The grass withereth, the flower fadeth: but the word of our God shall stand for ever. "Human systems perish; God's word remains permanently standing. Matthew 24:35 / Luke 21:33"Heaven and earth will pass away, but My words will by no means pass away ."Absolute guarantee that divine instruction outlasts the physical universe. Psalm 119:89 "Forever, O Lord, Your word is settled in heaven."Scripture is fixed by divine decree, beyond human alteration or deflection. Luke 16:17 "And it is easier for heaven and earth to pass away than for one tittle of the law to fail."The total reliability of Scripture; not even the smallest mark can fail to perform its purpose. The Warning Applied: Deflection vs. Submission When Matthew 5:18 is paired with verse 19, the warning becomes personal: anyone who attempts to "relax," "loosen," or deflect even the smallest part of God's word—or who teaches others that minor commands do not matter—places themselves in direct opposition to Christ’s declaration of the law's permanence. In Matthew 5:17–18, Jesus clarifies His relationship to the Old Testament, ensuring His followers understand He came neither to abolish Scripture nor to permit people to ignore its commands. Matthew 5:17–18 (NKJV) 17 "Do not think that I came to destroy the Law or the Prophets. I did not come to destroy but to fulfill. 18 For assuredly, I say to you, till heaven and earth pass away, one jot or one tittle will by no means pass from the law till all is fulfilled." Four Ways Christ Fulfills the Law and the Prophets 1. Perfect Obedience (Moral & Righteous Fulfillment): Yeshua lived a sinless life, keeping every detail of the Law—down to every "jot and tittle"—without failure (1 Peter 2:22, Hebrews 4:15). Where human tradition bypassed God’s intent, Yeshua upheld its absolute moral purity. 2. Prophetic Completion (Messianic Fulfillment): Yeshua fulfilled hundreds of Old Testament prophecies, types, and shadows regarding the Messiah—from His birth and ministry to His sacrificial death and resurrection (Luke 24:44). 3. The Ultimate Sacrifice (Sacrificial & Ceremonial Fulfillment): The ceremonial laws, animal sacrifices, and priesthood were shadows pointing forward to Christ. By offering Himself as the perfect, once-for-all sacrifice (Hebrews 10:1–10), He brought the penal demands of the ritual law to their intended completion. 4. Revealing Full Intent (Deeper Spiritual Meaning): In the rest of Matthew 5 (the "Sermon on the Mount"), Yeshua demonstrates what fulfilling the law looks like in practice. He goes beyond outward compliance to address the heart: showing that murder begins with hatred, adultery begins with lust, and partiality violates love (Matthew 5:21–48). Summary Matrix: Fulfill vs. Abolish False Assumption ("Destroy / Abolish")Biblical Realit y ("Fulfill")Scriptural Context Erasing the Old Testament commands Bringing them to their complete, intended goal Matthew 5:17 Declaring Scripture obsolete or unimportant Establishing its eternal authority and moral depth Romans 3:31 Setting aside the strict demands of God Satisfying those demands fully through Christ In Romans 10:4, Paul addresses the ultimate goal and resolution of God's law, resolving how Christ relates to the righteous demands of Scripture. Romans 10:4 (NKJV) "For Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to everyone who believes." Understanding "End" (Telos) The Greek word used here for "end" is telos. It does not mean "destruction," "abolition," or "termination," but rather: Goal or Target: The destination toward which the Law was always pointing (like the "end" of a journey). Fulfillment / Completion: The realization of the Law’s ultimate design and purpose. Consummation: The bringing of something to its intended final state. Three Key Theological Dimensions 1. Christ as the Target (The Goal of the Law): The Law was never designed to be an end in itself; it was a tutor or guardian intended to lead people to Christ by revealing God's absolute holiness and human inability to achieve perfection (Galatians 3:24). Christ is the target the Law aimed at all along. 2. Christ as Righteousness (Ending Self-Righteousness): Human beings often attempt to deflect or twist Scripture to construct their own system of merit. Romans 10:3–4 directly contrasts two ways of seeking righteousness: Human Effort / Self-Righteousness Divine Righteousness in Christ Attempting to keep the Law to earn salvation Receiving the righteousness of God as a gift through faith Lowering or distorting commands to fit human limits Relying on Christ’s total, perfect keeping of every "jot and tittle" Seeking righteousness by personal performance Receiving righteousness by believing in Christ (Romans 3:21–22) 3. Termination of the Law as a Means of Justification: While the moral truth of God's word remains eternal (Matthew 5:18), Christ ended the Law's role as a system for securing acceptance before God. Believers are no longer under the condemnation or curse of the Law (Romans 8:1, Galatians 3:13), because Christ satisfied its requirements on their behalf. The Law as "Guardrails" Against Sin The metaphor of the Law as a set of guardrails aligns closely with how Scripture describes God's commandments: they establish clear boundaries to expose danger, keep individuals from veering into sin, and protect them from destruction. The role of keeping Christ’s commandments True believers do keep His commandments. Yeshua said, “If you love me, you will keep my commandments” (John 14:15). 1 John repeatedly links knowing God, abiding in Him, and obedience as evidence of genuine faith rather than its ground. The Spirit enables the righteous requirement of the law to be fulfilled in those who walk according to the Spirit (Romans 8:4). Obedience is the fruit and necessary evidence of new life, not the condition that activates or preserves freedom from the law’s curse and condemnation. Key Scriptures: The Protective Function of the Law Psalm 119:11: "Your word I have hidden in my heart, that I might not sin against You." Guardrail Function: Internalizing Scripture acts as a direct barrier against temptation. Psalm 119:105: "Your word is a lamp to my feet and a light to my path." Guardrail Function: Defines the safe path, preventing a person from blindly straying off a cliff into sin. Galatians 3:23 : "But before faith came, we were kept under guard by the law, kept for the faith which should afterward be revealed." Guardrail Function: Paul explicitly uses military/custodial language (phroureo - to guard or hem in) to show how the Law contained and restrained human sinful nature until Christ arrived. 1 Timothy 1:8–10: " Knowing this: that the law is not made for a righteous person, but for the lawless and insubordinate, for the ungodly and for sinners..." Guardrail Function: Laws and boundaries exist precisely to restrain unruly behavior and prevent lawlessness from going unchecked. How the Guardrail Metaphor Completes the Biblical Picture Function of the Law Practical / Theological Meaning Scriptural Reference Exposing Sin (Mirror)Shows what sin is by defining absolute right and wrong Romans 3:20, 7:7 Leading to Christ (Tutor)Proves human inability to stay within boundaries, driving us to grace Galatians 3:24 Connecting Guardrails to Deflection When people deflect, remove, or relax parts of Scripture (as warned against in Matthew 5:18–19), they effectively tear down the guardrails God put in place for their protection. Removing the "least" commandment creates a gap in the fence, making it significantly easier to slide into major sin. Psalm 19 describes the warnings and rewards of God's law? Psalm 19: The Protective Value, Warnings, and Rewards of God's Law In Psalm 19:7–14, David transitions from God's revelation in creation (verses 1–6) to God's written word, providing a complete defense of Scripture's perfection and protective boundary. The Perfect Character of the Law (Verses 7–9) David uses six distinct titles and descriptions for God's word, showing how it acts as a total guide for human life: Term Used Description Practical Effect on the Soul The Law of the LORD Perfect Restores/converts the soul The Testimony of the LORD Sure Makes wise the simple The Statutes of the LORD Right Rejoices the heart The Commandment of the LORD Pure Enlightens the eyes The Fear of the LORD Clean, enduring forever Provides an unshakable foundation The Judgments of the LORD True and righteous altogether Imparts divine truth The Law as Warning and Guardrail (Verses 11–13) In verses 11–13, David explicitly describes how Scripture functions as a protective guardrail against different types of sin: 11 "Moreover by them Your servant is warned, and in keeping them there is great reward." 12 "Who can understand his errors? Cleanse me from secret faults." 13 "Keep back Your servant also from presumptuous sins; let them not have dominion over me..." Warning Against "Secret Faults" (Unintentional Sin): Scripture shines light on blind spots—sins committed in ignorance or rationalized away through self-deception. Guardrails Against "Presumptuous Sins" (Willful Sin): Presumptuous sins are intentional, high-handed rebellions (such as deflecting or deliberately ignoring a known command). David prays that the boundary of God's law holds him back so those deliberate sins do not form a habit or gain "dominion" over his life. The Ultimate Goal: Divine Acceptance (Verse 14) David concludes by bringing every thought, word, and reaction under the standard of God's word, recognizing that keeping the guardrails intact leads to true righteousness: 14 "Let the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be acceptable in Your sight, O LORD, my strength and my Redeemer."

    You claim to honor Christ by celebrating His birthday. The Heathens celebrate the Sun god's birth on December 25th, you Christians celebrate the Son of God birth on December 25th. Celebrating pagan ways , you love, God hates Jermiah 10:2 The Biblical Truth about Christ’s Birth The Satanic Ritual of Sacrificing Children (If you mix unholy with Holy it is blas·phe·my ) Every year, the priests of Ishtar would impregnate young virgins on an altar dedicated to herself and her husband*. The children were born on Christmas December 25, and the next year they were sacrificed on Easter Sunday at the sunrise service. The priests would take Ishtar's eggs and dye them in the blood of the sacrificed children. You must not worship the LORD your God the way the other nations worship their gods, for they perform for their gods every detestable act that the LORD hates. THIS Is What Jesus and the Bible Say about Christmas... Is Christmas a Christian or Pagan Holiday? Kiedy urodził się Mesjasz? Kurt Cammeron ratuje święta Pozbądź się Wielkanocy! (Pogańskie pochodzenie Wielkanocy i Bożego Narodzenia ujawnione) Część 1 z 8 Prawda czy tradycja Celebrating Jesus' Birthday Filmy świąteczne Wideo z obchodów Yule Świąteczne wideo Pat Robertson przyznaje, że Boże Narodzenie to karnel The Biblical Truth about Christ’s Birth Colossians 2:8 See to it that no one takes you captive by philosophy and empty deceit, according to human tradition, according to the elemental spirits of the world, and not according to Christ. Pagan Christmas How This Pagan Custom Got into the Church The New Schaff-Herzog Encyclopedia of Religious Knowledge explains clearly, in its article on "Christmas": "How much the date of the festival depended upon the pagan Brumalia (Dec. 25) following the Saturnalia (Dec. 17-24), and celebrating the shortest day in the year and the 'new sun,’. December 25th is not the birthday of Yeshua the true Christ! The apostles and early true Church never celebrated Christ's birthday at any time. There is no command or instruction to celebrate it in the Bible—rather, the celebration of birthdays is a pagan, not a Christian custom , believe it or not, the pagan festival with its riot and merrymaking was so popular that Christians were glad of an excuse to continue its celebration with little change in spirit and in manner. Christian preachers of the West and the Near East protested the unseemly frivolity with which Christ's birthday was celebrated, while Christians of Mesopotamia accused their Western brethren of idolatry and sun worship for adopting as Christian this pagan festival but remember, these people had grown up in pagan customs, chief of which was this idolatrous festival of December 25th. It was a festival of merrymaking, with its special spirit. They enjoyed it! They didn't want to give it up! Now this same article in the New Schaff- Herzog Encyclopedia of Religious Knowledge Explains how the recognition by Constantine of Sunday, which had been the day of pagan sun worship, and how the influence of the pagan Manichaeism, which identified the SON of God with the physical SUN, gave these pagans of the fourth century, now turning over wholesale to "Christianity," their excuse for calling their pagan festival date of December 25th (birthday of the SUN-god) the birthday of the SON of God. And that is how "Christmas" became fastened on our Western world! We may call it by another name, but it's the same old pagan sun-worshipping festival still! ."The Real Origin of Christmas but if we got Christmas from the Roman Catholics, and they got it from paganism, where did the pagans get it? Where, when, and what was its real origin? It is a chief custom of the corrupt system denounced all through Bible prophecies and teachings under the name of Babylon. And it started and originated in the original Babylon of ancient Nimrod! She claimed a full-grown evergreen tree sprang overnight from a dead tree stump, which symbolized the springing forth unto new life of the dead Nimrod. On each anniversary of his birth, she claimed, Nimrod would visit the evergreen tree and leave gifts upon it. December 25th was the birthday of Nimrod. This is the real origin of the Christmas tree. We are shocked to learn the truth—some, unfortunately, take offense at the plain truth! But God commands His faithful ministers, "Cry aloud, spare not, lift up thy voice like a trumpet, and show my people their transgression! 22 Then the Yehovah said to Moses, “Tell the Israelites this: ‘You have seen for yourselves that I have spoken to you from heaven: 23 Do not make any gods to be alongside me; do not make for yourselves gods of silver or gods of gold. Exodus 20:22 Psalm 81:12 So I let them follow their stubborn desires, living according to their own ideas. Isaiah 5:20 Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for light, and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for 1. The date of December 25 is not found in your Bible. The shepherds and sheep would not be in the fields in the winter. There is There is no verse that mentions the number of wise men. There is no mention that any of them were Kings. The wise men found the king of the Jews when he was around 2 years old. The Bible does mention not to bring an evergreen tree into your home and decorate it Mary and Joseph were not required to travel in the winter Yehovah says a lying tongue is the second on His list that He hates most. Everything about Christmas is pagan, Pat Robertson admits to the fully pagan origins of Christmas and defends celebrating the Christianized pagan holiday ● Jeremiah 10:2 Thus says the LORD, "Do not learn the way of the nations, and do not be terrified by the signs of the heavens though the nations are terrified by them; 3 For the customs of the peoples are delusion; Because it is wood cut from the forest, The work of the hands of a craftsman with a cutting tool. 4"They decorate it with silver and with gold; They fasten it with nails and with hammers So that it will not totter.… I have come to believe that nothing can be said to change one’s mind about Christmas. The music, gifts, food, and festive events outweigh the true meaning of Yeshua’s birth, this event trumps Yehovah. If you really want to celebrate His birth, then don't do it on the pagan sun god’s birthday on December 25th. This is what we find in the Bible. Proverbs 14:12 There is a way that seemeth right to a man, but the end thereof are the ways of death!" John 8:44 You belong to your father, the devil, and you want to carry out your father's desire. He was a murderer from the beginning, not holding to the truth, for there is no truth in him. When he lies, he speaks his native language, for he is a liar and the father of lies. Deuteronomy 12:31 Thou shalt not do so unto Jehovah thy God: for every abomination to Jehovah, which he hateth, have they done unto their gods; for even their sons and their daughters do they burn in the fire to their gods. ● Matthew 15:9 "In vain they do worship me, teaching for doctrines the commandments of men" John 4:23 The true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father seeketh such to worship him. He will not accept that kind of worship, even though it is intended in His honor. To Him, He says, it is offering what is abominable to Him, and therefore it honors, not Him, but false pagan gods. GOD says we must not worship Him according to the "dictates of our conscience"—a term we often hear. Does It Honor Christ? Suppose someone you love has a birthday. You want to honor that person on his or her birthday. Would you lavishly buy gifts for everyone else, trading gifts back and forth with all your other friends and loved ones, but ignore completely any gift for the one whose birthday you are honoring? Now come two arguments often used to justify Christmas observance. Many will reason this way: "But, even though the exact date of Yeshua's birth is unknown, should we not select some date to celebrate as His birthday?" The answer is positively no! Did you not notice the statement quoted from the Catholic Encyclopedia? "Sinners alone, not saints, celebrate their birthdays." The celebration of birthdays is not a Christian, but a pagan custom, observed by sinners! But many still say, "Even so—even though Christmas was a pagan custom, honoring the false sun-god, we don't observe it to honor the false god, we observe it to honor Christ." But how does GOD answer in His Word? "Take heed to thyself that thou be not snared by following them [the pagans in their customs] . . . that thou enquire not after their gods, saying, how did these nations serve their gods? even so will I do likewise? Thou shalt not do so unto the Yehovah thy God: for every abomination to the Eternal, which he hateth, have they done unto their gods" But Yeshua says plainly, "Yehovah is a spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth" (John 4:24). And what is truth? Yehovah’s Word—the Holy Bible—says Yeshua, is truth (John 17:17); and the Bible says Yehovah will not accept worship when people take a pagan custom or manner of worship and try to honor Christ with it. Again, Yeshua said: "In vain they do worship me, teaching for doctrines the commandments of men" (Matthew 15:9). Christmas observance is a tradition of men, and the commandments of Yehovah, as quoted, forbid it. Yeshua said, further, "Full well ye reject the commandment of Yehovah, that ye may keep your tradition." That is precisely what the millions are doing today. They ignore the commandment of Yehovah He commands, regarding taking the customs of the pagans and using them to honor or worship Yehovah: "Thou shalt not do so unto the Yehovah thy God." Still, most people today take that command of Yehovah lightly, or as having no validity whatsoever, and follow the tradition of men in observing Christmas. Make no mistake! Yehovah will allow you to defy and disobey Him. He will allow you to follow the crowd and the traditions of men. He will allow you to sin. But He also says there is a day of reckoning coming. As you sow, so shall you reap! Yeshua was the living Word of Yehovah in person, and the Bible is the written Word of Yehovah. And we shall be judged, for eternity, by these words! They should not be taken lightly or ignored. What Encyclopedias Say The word "Christmas" means "Mass of Christ," or, as it came to be shortened, "Christ-Mass." It came from the Roman /Catholic Church. Christmas was not among the earliest festivals of the Church In the Scriptures, no one is recorded to have kept a feast or held a great banquet on His birthday. These recognized historical authorities show Christmas was not observed by Christians for the first two or three hundred years—a period longer than the entire history of the United States as a nation! In the fifth century, the Western Church ordered it to be celebrated forever on the day of the old Roman feast of the birth of Sol, as no certain knowledge of the day of Christ's birth existed." Sol Invictus ("Unconquered Sun") was the official sun god of the later Roman Empire and a patron of soldiers. In 274 AD the Roman emperor Aurelian made it an official cult alongside the traditional Roman cults. God forbids pagan feast days idolater, a person that admires intensely and often blindly one that is not usually a subject of worship. Idolatry is the worship of an idol or cult image, being a physical image, such as a statue, Every year, the priest of Ishtar would impregnate young virgins on an altar. The children were born on Christmas and the next year they were sacrificed at the Easter Sunday sunrise service. The priest would take Ishtar’s eggs and dye them in the blood of the sacrificed children. This was observed around 2000 years before Christ was born. 'You shall not give any of your offspring to offer them to Moloch, nor shall you profane the name of your God; I am Yehovah. Leviticus 18:21 21. You must not bow down to them or worship them, for I, the Yehovah your God, am a jealous God who will not tolerate your affection for any other gods. I lay the sins of the parents upon their children; the entire family is affected by children in the third and fourth generations of those who reject me. Exodus 20: 5 Do Not Be Unequally Yoked …16 What agreement can exist between the temple of God and idols? For we are the temple of the living God. As God has said: “I will live with them and walk among them, and I will be their God, and they will be My people.” 17“Therefore come out from among them and be separate, says the Lord. Touch no unclean thing, and I will receive you.” 2 Cor 6:1717 The Sovereignty of God 1 Hear the word that the LORD speaks to you, O house of Israel. 2 This is what the LORD says: “Do not learn the ways of the nations or be terrified by the signs in the heavens, although the nations are terrified by them. 3 For the customs of the people are worthless; they cut down a tree from the forest; it is shaped with a chisel by the hands of a craftsman…4 They deck it with silver and with gold; they faste n it with nails and with hammers, that it move not. Jeremiah 10:2-4

  • Nailed to the cross | Answers 4 Saints

    Nailed To The Cross The New Covenant Bottom of the page The New Covenant The Fulfillment of the Law The New Covenant Nailed to the cross Christ Redeemed Us nailed to the cross the law of the spirit and death is hung on the cross redeeming mankind from the curse of sin and death through his death on the cross. You've perfectly summarized a core doctrine of Christianity: redemption from the curse of sin and death through Jesus' death on the cross. Let's unpack what each part of that statement means in Christian theology: "Redeeming mankind": Redeem means to "buy back " or "pay a price for something lost or forfeited." In ancient times, it could refer to buying a slave's freedom or repurchasing property. In a spiritual sense, mankind was "lost" or "enslaved" to sin and its consequences. Jesus "bought back" humanity's freedom. "From the curse of sin and death": Sin: In Christianity, sin is not merely a mistake but an active rebellion against God's holy nature and perfect will. It's disobedience and a breaking of God's law. Curse of Sin : The Bible teaches that sin brought a curse upon creation and humanity. This curse manifests as: Spiritual Death: Separation from God, which is the ultimate source of life. Physical Death : The eventual cessation of biological life. Spiritual Bondage: The inability to overcome sin's power on one's own. Condemnation : The just judgment and punishment from a holy God. The "curse" also relates to the consequences described in Genesis 3 after the Fall – toil, pain, fractured relationships, and mortality. "Through his death on the cross": This is the means by which redemption is achieved. Atonement: Jesus, being fully God and fully man, lived a perfect, sinless life. His death on the cross is understood as a substitute (vicarious) atonement. He took upon Himself the penalty and punishment for humanity's sins, satisfying the demands of divine justice. Sacrifice: His death is seen as the ultimate sacrifice, the perfect Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world. Victory: While appearing to be a defeat, the cross is also understood as the place where Jesus disarmed the powers of darkness, cancelled the legal debt of sin, and ultimately triumphed over sin and death (especially when combined with His resurrection). In essence, because of sin, humanity was under a divine curse leading to death and separation from God. Jesus, by willingly dying on the cross, paid the ultimate price, thereby redeeming those who believe in Galatians 3:12 The law, however, is not based on faith; on the contrary, “The man who does these things will live by them.” 13 Christ redeemed us from the curse of the law by becoming a curse for us. For it is written: “Cursed is everyone who is hung on a tree.” 14 He redeemed us in order that the blessing promised to Abraham would come to the Gentiles in Christ Jesus, so that by faith we might receive the promise of the Spirit. … COLOSSI ANS 2:13-15 13 You were dead because of your sins and because your sinful nature was not yet cut away. Then God made you alive with Christ, for he forgave all our sins. 14 He canceled the record of the charges against us and took it away by nailing it to the cross. New Covenant The New Covenant is a central concept in Christian theology, representing a fundamental shift in God's relationship with humanity, as promised in the Old Testament and established through Jesus Christ in the New Testament. It stands in contrast to the Old Covenant (or Mosaic Covenant), which was established with Israel through Moses at Mount Sinai, centered on the Law. Here's a breakdown of the New Covenant: 1. Old Testament Prophecies of the New Covenant The idea of a "new covenant" was first prophesied in the Old Testament, most famously in: Jeremiah 31:31-34: "Behold, the days are coming, declares the Lord, when I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel and the house of Judah, not like the covenant that I made with their fathers on the day when I took them by the hand to bring them out of the land of Egypt, my covenant that they broke, though I was their husband, declares the Lord. For this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days, declares the Lord: I will put my law within them, and I will write it on their hearts. And I will be their God, and they shall be my people. And no longer shall each one teach his neighbor and each his brother, saying, 'Know the Lord,' for they shall all know me, from the least of them to the greatest, declares the Lord. For I will forgive their iniquity, and I will remember their sin no more." Other prophets like Ezekiel also hint at a new spirit and new heart (e.g., Ezekiel 36:26-27). And I will give you a new heart, and a new spirit I will put within you. And I will remove the heart of stone from your flesh and give you a heart of flesh. And I will put my Spirit within you, and cause you to walk in my statutes and be careful to obey my rules. These prophecies highlight the perceived failures of the Old Covenant (people broke it) and hint at a more internal, trans formative covenant. 2. Establishment of the New Covenant in Christ Christians believe the New Covenant was inaugurated by Jesus Christ through His life, death, and resurrection: His Blood: Jesus explicitly links the New Covenant to His blood during the Last Supper: "This cup is the new covenant in my blood, which is poured out for many for the forgiveness of sins." (Luke 22:20; Matthew 26:28; 1 Corinthians 11:25). His sacrificial death is the basis for this new agreement. His Fulfillment of the Law: Jesus is seen as fulfilling the Old Covenant Law (Matthew 5:17), not abolishing it, but bringing it to its intended goal and perfection. He satisfied its righteous demands. His Resurrection and the Holy Spirit: The New Covenant is made effective through the power of the Holy Spirit, whom Jesus sent after His resurrection and ascension. 3. Key Characteristics of the New Covenant The New Covenant contrasts with the Old Covenant in several significant ways: Internal vs. External: The Law of the Old Covenant was primarily external, written on stone tablets. The New Covenant involves God's Law being written on the heart and mind (Jeremiah 31:33; Hebrews 8:10), implying an internal transformation and desire to obey. Forgiveness of Sins: A central promise of the New Covenant is the forgiveness of sins, where God declares, "I will remember their sin no more" (Jeremiah 31:34; Hebrews 8:12). This forgiveness is achieved through Christ's sacrifice. Direct Access to God: Under the Old Covenant, access to God was mediated through priests and rituals. Under the New Covenant, believers have direct access to God through Christ (Hebrews 4:14-16, 10:19-22). Empowerment by the Holy Spirit: Instead of relying on human effort to keep the Law (which consistently failed), the New Covenant provides the Holy Spirit to empower believers to live righteously and obey God's will (Ezekiel 36:27; Romans 8:3-4). Relationship of Grace and Faith: While the Old Covenant had elements of grace, the New Covenant is overwhelmingly characterized by grace, received through faith in Jesus Christ, rather than through perfect adherence to legalistic rituals or commands (Ephesians 2:8-9; Romans 3:21-26). Universal Scope: While the Old Covenant was primarily with the nation of Israel, the New Covenant extends to all who believe, both Jews and Gentiles, forming a "spiritual Israel" or the Church (Galatians 3:28-29; Romans 10:12). 4. Significance for Christians For Christians, the New Covenant signifies: Salvation : It's the basis for salvation and reconciliation with God. New Life: It inaugurates a new way of life characterized by an internal transformation and empowerment by the Holy Spirit. Fulfillment: I t demonstrates God's faithfulness in fulfilling His ancient promises. Foundation of the Church: It is the foundation upon which the Christian Church is built. In summary, the New Covenant, established through Jesus Christ, is understood as a superior and everlasting covenant that brings forgiveness, internal transformation, direct access to God, and empowerment by the Holy Spirit, all based on God's grace and received through faith. Gods Instructions Gods unchanging laws The Fulfillment of the Law The Fulfillment of the Law 16In the same way, let your light shine before men, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven. 17Do not think that I have come to abolish the Law or the Prophets.

    you must be grafted into Israel to be saved. If you have been baptized in Yeshua’s name, have repented, received the Holy Spirit and are living like your Savior lived, you are automatically grafted into Israel; you are a spiritual Jew. (did you know Jesus is a Jew) He answered, "I was sent only to Grafted into Israel All Israel Shall Be Saved I do not want you to be ignorant of this mystery, brothers, so that you will not be conceited: A hardening in part has come to Israel, until the full number of the Gentiles has come in. And so all Israel will be saved, as it is written: “The Deliverer will come from Zion; He will remove godlessness from Jacob. 27 And this is My covenant with them when I take away their sins.”… In the context of Romans 11, where Paul uses the analogy of the olive tree, the cultivated olive tree primarily represents God's covenant people, Israel. Here's a breakdown of the symbolism: The Root: The root of the cultivated olive tree symbolizes the foundational promises and covenants God made with the patriarchs, particularly Abraham (Romans 11:18). It represents the rich spiritual heritage and the source of blessing from God. The Natural Branches: These represent the Jewish people, who are the natural descendants of Abraham and were the original recipients of God's covenant promises. The Wild Olive Branches (Gentiles): These represent the Gentiles (non-Jewish people) who, through faith in Christ, are grafted into this existing covenant relationship. The Nourishing Root: By being grafted in, the Gentiles share in the "nourishing root" of the cultivated olive tree, meaning they partake in the spiritual blessings, salvation, and relationship with God that flow from His covenant promises. Therefore, the olive tree in Romans 11 is not just any tree; it's a specific symbol of God's chosen people and the established covenant through which blessings flow. The grafting of the Gentiles into this tree illustrates how they become part of God's people and recipients of His grace through faith in Jesus Christ, despite not being natural descendants of Abraham. 1. The Equality of Faith (Romans 10:12) This is perhaps the most direct "no difference" statement in the Bible. "For there is no difference between Jew and Gentile —the same Lord is Lord of all and richly blesses all who call on him." 2. The Unity in Christ (Galatians 3:28) This verse is often cited as the definitive statement on Christian equality across all social and ethnic boundaries. "There is neither Jew nor Gentile, neither slave nor free, nor is there male and female , for you are all one in Christ Jesus." 3. The New Humanity (Colossians 3:11) Paul explains that in the "new self," traditional worldly divisions lose their significance. "Here there is no Gentile or Jew, circumcised or uncircumcised, barbarian, Scythian, slave or free, but Christ is all, and is in all." 4. Equality in Sin and Grace (Romans 3:22–23) Paul uses the "no difference" argument to show that everyone starts on the same level playing field regarding the need for salvation. "This righteousness is given through faith in Jesus Christ to all who believe. There is no difference between Jew and Gentile, for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God." Dwanaście plemion Izraela Te następne wersety są niektórymi, których być może nie słyszałeś, musisz zostać wszczepiony w Izrael, aby zostać zbawionym. Jeśli zostałeś ochrzczony w imię Jeszuy, odpokutowałeś, otrzymałeś Ducha Świętego i żyjesz tak, jak żył twój Zbawiciel, automatycznie jesteś wszczepiony w Izrael; jesteś duchowym Żydem. (czy wiesz, że Jezus jest Żydem) Odpowiedział: „Zostałem posłany tylko do zagubionych owiec Izraela”. Mateusza 15:24 Jest 100 wersetów o byciu wszczepionym w Izrael. Imię „Izrael” oznacza „Ten, który walczy z Bogiem”. Nie walczyć z Bogiem w sensie przeciwstawiania się Bogu, ale raczej w sensie służenia i pomagania Bogu. To dzięki dwunastu synom Izraela obietnica dana jemu, jego ojcu Izaakowi i dziadkowi Abrahamowi zaczęła się zakorzeniać.Dwunastu synów Izraela to: Ruben, Symeon, Lewi, Juda, Zebulon, Issachar, Dan, Gad, Aser, Naftali, Józef i Beniamin . Powtórzonego Prawa 4:8 A któryż naród jest tak wielki, że ma ustawy i prawa tak sprawiedliwe, jak całe to Prawo, które ja wam dzisiaj kładę? Marka 1;15 Wtedy Jezus powiedział do kobiety: „Zostałem posłany tylko po to, aby pomóc zagubionym owcom Bożym — ludowi Izraela”. Galacjan 3:27 Bóg mówi 27 Albowiem wszyscy, którzy zostaliście ochrzczeni w Chrystusie, przyoblekliście się w Chrystusa. 28 29 And if you belong to Christ, then Ty są nasieniem Abrahama i dziedzicami zgodnie z obietnicą.… Efezjan 2:18-19 Albowiem przez Niego obaj mamy dostęp do Ojca w jednym Duchu. 19 Dlatego już nie jesteście cudzoziemcami i przychodniami, ale współobywatelami Lud Boży i domownicy Boga; 1 Piotra 2:10 Niegdyś nie byliście ludem, teraz jesteście ludem Bożym; kiedyś nie otrzymaliście miłosierdzia, ale teraz otrzymaliście miłosierdzie. 1 Piotra 2:9 Ale wy jesteście rodem wybranym, królewskim kapłaństwem, narodem świętym, ludem nabytym, abyście rozgłaszali cnoty tego, który was powołał z ciemności do przedziwnej swojej światłości; Efezjan 2:11 Dlatego pamiętajcie, że wy, którzy niegdyś jesteście poganami (chrześcijanami) w ciele i nazywacie się nieobrzezanymi przez tak zwane obrzezanie (dokonywane na ciele ludzkimi rękami) — 12 pamiętajcie, że w tamtym czasie byliście oddzieleni od Chrystusa, oddaleni od wspólnoty izraelskiej i obcy przymierzom obietnicy, bez nadziei i bez Boga na świecie. 13 Ale teraz w Chrystusie Jeszua wy, którzy kiedyś byliście daleko, staliście się bliscy przez krew Chrystusa.… Jesteś obywatelem Izraela, od którego wymaga się przestrzegania wszystkich instrukcji i praw Jahwe. Jesteś duchowym Żydem. Rzymian 11:23 A jeśli nie będą trwać w niewierze, zostaną wszczepieni, gdyż Bóg ma moc wszczepić ich ponownie. Rzymian 2:28 Człowiek nie jest Żydem dlatego, że jest nim na zewnątrz, ani też obrzezanie nie jest tylko zewnętrzne i fizyczne. 29 Nie, człowiek jest Żydem, ponieważ jest nim wewnętrznie, a obrzezanie jest sprawą serca, przez Ducha, a nie przez spisany kodeks. Pochwała takiego człowieka nie pochodzi od ludzi, ale od Boga. Rzymian 11:25 Nie chcę, bracia, abyście nie znali tej tajemnicy, abyście nie byli zarozumiali: Zatwardziałość przyszła po części do Izraela, aż wejdzie pełna liczba pogan. 26 I tak wszyscy Izrael będzie zbawiony, jak jest napisane: „Z Syjonu przyjdzie Wybawiciel; On usunie bezbożność z Jakuba. 27 A to jest moje przymierze z nimi, gdy zgładzę ich grzechy”. … Objawienie 21:12 Miasto miało wielki i wysoki mur z dwunastoma bramami, na których wyryto imiona dwunastu pokoleń izraelskich, a na bramach dwunastu aniołów. Objawienie 21:21 Dwanaście bram było zrobionych z pereł, każda z jednej perły, a ulice miasta były ze szczerego złota, jakby były z przezroczystego szkła. Jak właśnie przeczytałeś, do wielkiego miasta prowadzi tylko 12 bram. Wszystkie nazwy bram są hebrajskie, 12 synów Izraela. Aby wejść, musisz być wszczepiony w Izrael. Łukasza 4:43 Lecz on odpowiedział: „Muszę głosić Dobrą Nowinę o Królestwie Bożym także w innych miastach, bo po to zostałem posłany”. Piotra 2:9 Ale wy tacy nie jesteście, bo jesteście narodem wybranym. Jesteście królewskimi kapłanami, narodem świętym, własnością Boga. Dzięki temu możesz okazywać innym dobroć Boga, który powołał cię z ciemności do swojego cudownego światła. ● Powtórzonego Prawa 14:2 Zostałeś wyświęcony Jehowie, twemu Elohimowi, i wybrał cię spośród wszystkich narodów ziemi, abyś był swoim szczególnym skarbem. ● Objawienie 18:4 I usłyszałem inny głos z nieba mówiący: Wyjdźcie z niej, mój ludu, abyście nie mieli udziału w jej grzechach, abyście nie otrzymali żadnego z jej plagi. Musimy dostosować nasze umysły do umysłu Chrystusa Rzymian 12:2 Nie bierzcie wzoru z tego świata, ale przemieńcie się przez odnowienie umysłu. Wtedy będziesz mógł wypróbować i zatwierdzić, jaka jest wola Boża – Jego dobra, miła i doskonała wola. Kolosan 3:1-3 Ponieważ razem z Chrystusem powstaliście z martwych, mierzcie ku temu, co jest w niebie, gdzie Chrystus siedzi po prawicy Boga. Myśl tylko o rzeczach w niebie, nie o rzeczach na ziemi. Twoje stare grzeszne ja umarło, a twoje nowe życie jest zachowane z Chrystusem w Bogu . (Jehowa patrzy na dwie osoby, które grupują Swój wybrany lud, który nazywa Izraelem, a wszystkich innych nazywa poganami, narodami) Nie żyj tym, po co żyją ludzie. 1 Jana 2:15-16 Nie miłujcie świata ani tego, co jest na świecie. Jeśli ktoś miłuje świat, nie ma w nim miłości Ojca, ponieważ wszystko, co jest na świecie (pragnienie ciała i pożądanie oczu, arogancja wynikająca z dóbr materialnych) nie pochodzi od Ojca, ale jest ze świata. Zostaliśmy odnowieni przez Chrystusa. 2 Koryntian 5:17 Jeśli więc ktoś jest w Chrystusie, nowym jest stworzeniem; stare przeminęło; oto wszystko stało się nowe. Galacjan 2:20 Mój dawny ja został ukrzyżowany z Chrystusem. Już nie ja żyję, ale żyje we mnie Chrystus. Żyję więc w tym ziemskim ciele ufając Synowi Bożemu, który mnie umiłował i oddał za mnie samego siebie. Naśladuj Chrystusa Efezjan 5:1 Bądźcie więc naśladowcami Boga jako dzieci umiłowane. Świat cię znienawidzi. ● Jana 15:18-19 Jeśli świat was nienawidzi, pamiętajcie, że mnie pierwszy znienawidził. Świat kochałby cię jak swojego, gdybyś do niego należał, ale nie jesteś już częścią świata. Wybrałem was, abyście przyszli ze świata, więc was nienawidzi. 1 Piotra 4:4 Oczywiście twoi dawni przyjaciele są zaskoczeni, gdy już nie pogrążasz się w powodzi dzikich i niszczycielskich rzeczy, które oni robią. Więc oczerniają cię. Mateusza 5:14-16 Wy jesteście światłem świata — jak miasto na wzgórzu, którego nie da się ukryć. Nikt nie zapala lampy, a potem nie stawia jej pod koszem. Zamiast tego lampa jest umieszczona na stojaku, gdzie oświetla wszystkich w domu. W ten sam sposób niech wasze dobre uczynki zajaśnieją, aby wszyscy mogli je zobaczyć, aby wszyscy chwalili wasze niebiańskie Ojciec. Jehowa Cały Izrael będzie zbawiony Nie chcę, bracia, abyście byli nieświadomi tej tajemnicy, abyście nie byli zarozumiali: Zatwardziałość przyszła po części do Izraela, aż wejdzie pełna liczba pogan._cc781905-5cde-3194-bb3b- 136zły5cf58d_ I tak cały Izrael będzie zbawiony, jak jest napisane: „Z Syjonu przyjdzie Wybawiciel; On usunie bezbożność z Jakuba. 27 A to jest moje przymierze z nimi, gdy zgładzę ich grzechy”… Dwanaście plemion Izraela Te następne wersety są niektórymi, których być może nie słyszałeś, musisz zostać wszczepiony w Izrael, aby zostać zbawionym. Jeśli zostałeś ochrzczony w imię Jeszuy, odpokutowałeś, otrzymałeś Ducha Świętego i żyjesz tak, jak żył twój Zbawiciel, automatycznie jesteś wszczepiony w Izrael; jesteś duchowym Żydem. (czy wiesz, że Jezus jest Żydem) Odpowiedział: „Zostałem posłany tylko do zagubionych owiec Izraela”. Mateusza 15:24 Jest 100 wersetów o byciu wszczepionym w Izrael. Imię „Izrael” oznacza „Ten, który walczy z Bogiem”. Nie walczyć z Bogiem w sensie przeciwstawiania się Bogu, ale raczej w sensie służenia i pomagania Bogu. To dzięki dwunastu synom Izraela obietnica dana jemu, jego ojcu Izaakowi i dziadkowi Abrahamowi zaczęła się zakorzeniać.Dwunastu synów Izraela to: Ruben, Symeon, Lewi, Juda, Zebulon, Issachar, Dan, Gad, Aser, Naftali, Józef i Beniamin . Powtórzonego Prawa 4:8 A któryż naród jest tak wielki, że ma ustawy i prawa tak sprawiedliwe, jak całe to Prawo, które ja wam dzisiaj kładę? Marka 1;15 Wtedy Jezus powiedział do kobiety: „Zostałem posłany tylko po to, aby pomóc zagubionym owcom Bożym — ludowi Izraela”. Galacjan 3:27 Bóg mówi 27 Albowiem wszyscy, którzy zostaliście ochrzczeni w Chrystusie, przyoblekliście się w Chrystusa. 28 29 And if you belong to Christ, then Ty są nasieniem Abrahama i dziedzicami zgodnie z obietnicą.… Efezjan 2:18-19 Albowiem przez Niego obaj mamy dostęp do Ojca w jednym Duchu. 19 Dlatego już nie jesteście cudzoziemcami i przychodniami, ale współobywatelami Lud Boży i domownicy Boga; 1 Piotra 2:10 Niegdyś nie byliście ludem, teraz jesteście ludem Bożym; kiedyś nie otrzymaliście miłosierdzia, ale teraz otrzymaliście miłosierdzie. 1 Piotra 2:9 Ale wy jesteście rodem wybranym, królewskim kapłaństwem, narodem świętym, ludem nabytym, abyście rozgłaszali cnoty tego, który was powołał z ciemności do przedziwnej swojej światłości; Efezjan 2:11 Dlatego pamiętajcie, że wy, którzy niegdyś jesteście poganami (chrześcijanami) w ciele i nazywacie się nieobrzezanymi przez tak zwane obrzezanie (dokonywane na ciele ludzkimi rękami) — 12 pamiętajcie, że w tamtym czasie byliście oddzieleni od Chrystusa, oddaleni od wspólnoty izraelskiej i obcy przymierzom obietnicy, bez nadziei i bez Boga na świecie. 13 Ale teraz w Chrystusie Jeszua wy, którzy kiedyś byliście daleko, staliście się bliscy przez krew Chrystusa.… Jesteś obywatelem Izraela, od którego wymaga się przestrzegania wszystkich instrukcji i praw Jahwe. Jesteś duchowym Żydem. Rzymian 11:23 A jeśli nie będą trwać w niewierze, zostaną wszczepieni, gdyż Bóg ma moc wszczepić ich ponownie. Rzymian 2:28 Człowiek nie jest Żydem dlatego, że jest nim na zewnątrz, ani też obrzezanie nie jest tylko zewnętrzne i fizyczne. 29 Nie, człowiek jest Żydem, ponieważ jest nim wewnętrznie, a obrzezanie jest sprawą serca, przez Ducha, a nie przez spisany kodeks.

    For we will all stand before God’s judgment seat. . .. So then, each of us will give an account of himself to God” Everyone dies once than comes judgement . The Judgment Seat of Christ Heading 6 For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ, that each one may receive the things done in the body, according to what he has done, whether good or bad. Knowing, therefore, the terror of the Lord, we persuade men; but we are well known to God, and I also trust are well known in your consciences. Siedziba sądu Chrystusa List do Rzymian 14:10-12 mówi: „Wszyscy bowiem staniemy przed sądem Bożym. . .. Tak więc każdy z nas sam za siebie zda sprawę Bogu” Wielu ludzi myli Sąd Wielkiego Białego Tronu pod koniec Tysiąclecia z Sądowym Tronem Chrystusa, który ma miejsce 1000 lat wcześniej podczas Wieczerzy Weselnej Baranka w Niebie. Sądowy Tron Chrystusa jest zupełnie innym sądem, w którym zbawieni są sądzeni przez Jeszuę i nagradzani zgodnie ze swoimi uczynkami. Jana 3:36 Kto wierzy w Syna, ma życie wieczne; kto nie jest posłuszny Synowi, nie ujrzy życia, lecz gniew Boży ciąży na nim. List do Hebrajczyków 10:26-27 Bo jeśli po otrzymaniu poznania prawdy rozmyślnie grzeszymy, to już nie pozostaje dla nas ofiara za grzechy, ale tylko straszne oczekiwanie sądu i żar ognia, który pochłonie przeciwników. ● Rzymian 6:23 – Zapłatą za grzech [jest] śmierć; lecz darem Boga [jest] życie wieczne przez Jeszuę, naszego Pana. Wieczerza weselna Baranka (119 ministerstries.com) Objawienie 19:6 Wtedy usłyszałem jakby głos wielkiego tłumu, jakby szum wielu wód i jakby odgłos potężnych grzmotów, wołających: Alleluja! Bo Jehowa, nasz Elohim Wszechmogący, króluje. 7 Radujmy się i radujmy się, i oddajmy mu chwałę, bo nadeszły zaślubiny Baranka, a jego Oblubienica przygotowała się; 8 dano jej ubrać się w bisior jasny i czysty” – bo bisior to sprawiedliwe uczynki świętych 9. I rzekł anioł do mnie: „Napisz to: Błogosławieni, którzy są zaproszeni na zaślubiny wieczerza Baranka”. I powiedział do mnie: „To są prawdziwe słowa Boga”. Mateusza 25:1-13 - Wtedy podobne będzie królestwo niebieskie do dziesięciu panien, które wzięły swoje lampy i wyszły na spotkanie pana młodego. Jan 14:3 - A jeśli odejdę i przygotuję wam miejsce, przyjdę ponownie i wezmę was do siebie; abyście tam, gdzie ja jestem, wy też byli. Jan 3:29 - Ten, kto ma oblubienicę, ten jest oblubieńcem; ale przyjaciel oblubieńca, który stoi i słucha hymnu, raduje się bardzo z powodu głosu oblubieńca: ta więc radość moja jest spełniona. Objawienie 3:20 - Oto stoję u drzwi i kołaczę: jeśli kto posłyszy mój głos i drzwi otworzy, wejdę do niego i będę z nim wieczerzał, a on ze mną. Siódma Trąbka: Ogłoszenie Królestwa Objawienie 11:15,18; 15 Wtedy siódmy anioł zatrąbił: I rozległy się donośne głosy w niebie, mówiące: „Królestwa tego świata stały się królestwami Pana naszego i Jego Syna, i będzie królował na wieki wieków!” 16 A dwudziestu czterech starców, którzy zasiadali przed Jehową na swoich tronach, upadło na twarz i pokłoniło się Jehowie, 17 mówiąc: „Dziękujemy Ci, Jehowo, wszechmogący Elohimie, który jesteś i który był, i który ma przyjść, ponieważ Wziąłeś Swoją wielką moc i królowałeś. 18 Rozgniewały się narody i nadszedł Twój gniew, i pora na umarłych, aby zostali osądzeni i aby odpłacić Twoim sługom, prorokom i świętym, i tym, którzy boją się Twojego imienia, małym i wielkim, i zniszczcie tych, którzy niszczą ziemię”. Objawienie 10:7; Ale w dniach głosu siódmego anioła, kiedy zacznie trąbić, dopełni się tajemnica Boga, jak zapowiedział swoim sługom prorokom Przyjście Syna Człowieczego Następne wersety wyjaśniają, że umarli w Chrystusie powstaną pierwsi, a następnie ci, którzy pozostaną przy życiu, zostaną razem z nimi porwani w obłoki, by spotkać się z Jeszuą. Ten następny werset mówi nam, że jeśli będziemy w pierwszym zmartwychwstaniu, staniemy przed tronem sędziowskim Chrystusa. Mateusza 24:29 „Zaraz po ucisku owych dni słońce się zaćmi i księżyc nie da swego blasku; gwiazdy będą spadać z nieba, a moce niebios zostaną wstrząśnięte. 30 Wtedy znak Syna Człowieczego pojawi się na niebie i wtedy wszystkie plemiona ziemi będą lamentować i ujrzą Syna Człowieczego przychodzącego na obłokach nieba z mocą i wielką chwałą. 31 I pośle swoich aniołów z wielkim dźwiękiem trąby, i zgromadzą razem Jego wybranych z czterech stron świata, od jednego krańca nieba do drugiego. Tesaloniczan 4:15 Oświadczamy wam słowem Jehowy, że my, którzy żyjemy i pozostaniemy aż do przyjścia Jeszuy, w żaden sposób nie wyprzedzimy tych, którzy zasnęli? 16 Albowiem sam Jeszua zstąpi z nieba na głośny rozkaz, na głos archanioła i na dźwięk trąby Bożej, a zmarli w Chrystusie powstaną pierwsi. 17 Potem my, którzy pozostaniemy przy życiu, razem z nimi zostaniemy porwani w obłoki, by spotkać się z Jeszuą w powietrzu. I tak zawsze będziemy z Jeszuą. Mateusza 10:28 28 I nie bójcie się tych, którzy zabijają ciało, ale duszy zabić nie mogą; ale raczej bójcie się tego, który może i duszę i ciało zatracić w piekle. Dlatego pocieszajcie się nawzajem tymi słowami. 1 Koryntian 15:51-52, 51 Ale pozwólcie, że ujawnię wam cudowną tajemnicę. Nie wszyscy umrzemy, ale wszyscy zostaniemy przemienieni! 52 Stanie się to za chwilę, w mgnieniu oka, kiedy zabrzmi ostatnia trąba. Gdy zabrzmi trąba, ci, którzy umarli, powstaną do życia wiecznego. I my, którzy żyjemy, również zostaniemy przemienieni. Objawienie 20:4 I widziałem trony, i siedzieli na nich, i dano im sąd; i widziałem dusze ściętych za świadectwo Jeszuy i za słowo Jehowy, którzy nie oddawali pokłonu bestia, ani jego obraz, ani nie przyjęli jego znamienia na czołach ani na rękach; żyli i królowali z Jeszuą przez tysiąc lat. 5 Ale pozostali z umarłych nie ożyli, aż się dopełniło tysiąc lat. To jest pierwsze zmartwychwstanie. 6 Błogosławiony i święty, który ma udział w pierwszym zmartwychwstaniu; nad takimi druga śmierć nie ma władzy, ale będą kapłanami Boga i Chrystusa i będą z nim królować tysiąc lat. 2 Koryntian 5:10 mówi nam: „Wszyscy musimy stanąć przed tronem sędziowskim Jeszuy, aby każdy z nas otrzymał zapłatę za uczynki dokonane w ciele, czy to dobre, czy złe”. W kontekście jasne jest, że oba fragmenty odnoszą się do Izraela, a nie do niewierzących. Tron sędziowski Jeszuy obejmuje zatem wierzących, którzy składają Jeszui sprawozdanie ze swojego życia. To nie jest kwestia zbawienia. Podsumowując: „Błogosławiony mąż, który wytrwa w próbie, bo gdy wytrzyma próbę, otrzyma wieniec życia, obiecany przez Boga tym, którzy Go miłują”. Objawienie 22:14 Błogosławieni, którzy wypełniają Jego przykazania, aby mieli prawo do drzewa życia i aby mogli wejść przez bramy do miasta. ● Mateusza 21:21 Nie każdy, kto do mnie mówi: „Panie, Panie”, wejdzie do królestwa niebieskiego, lecz tylko ten, kto pełni wolę mojego Ojca w niebie. Błogosławiony i święty, który ma udział w pierwszym zmartwychwstaniu; nad takimi druga śmierć nie ma władzy, ale będą kapłanami Boga i Chrystusa i będą z nim królować tysiąc lat. 1 Jana 5:27 I dał mu władzę wykonywania sądu, ponieważ jest Synem Człowieczym. 28 Nie dziwcie się temu, bo nadchodzi godzina, kiedy wszyscy, którzy są w grobach, usłyszą Jego głos 29 i wyjdą ci, którzy dobrze czynili, aby zmartwychwstać do życia, a ci, którzy źle czynili, aby zmartwychwstać osąd.… Dzieje Apostolskie 16:30 Potem ich wyprowadził i zapytał: „Panowie, co mam czynić, abym był zbawiony?”31 Odpowiedzieli: „Uwierz w Jeszuę Mesjasza, a będziesz zbawiony, ty i twój dom”. , „Uwierz w Jeszuę Mesjasza, a będziesz zbawiony, ty i twój dom”. 32 Wtedy opowiedzieli jemu i wszystkim, którzy byli w jego domu, słowo Jezusa. 33 I wziął je tej samej godziny w nocy i obmył ich rany. I natychmiast on i cała jego rodzina zostali ochrzczeni. 34 A wprowadziwszy ich do swego domu, postawił przed nimi jedzenie; i radował się, uwierzywszy w Boga z całym swoim domem. Mateusza 19:15 A gdy włożył na nie ręce, odszedł stamtąd. 16 Właśnie wtedy pewien człowiek podszedł do Jeszui i zapytał: „Nauczycielu, co dobrego mam czynić, aby otrzymać życie wieczne?” 17 „Dlaczego Mnie pytacie o dobro?” Jeszua odpowiedział: „Jest tylko Jeden, który jest dobry. Jeśli chcesz wejść do życia, przestrzegaj przykazań”. Dzieje Apostolskie 2:37 Gdy ludzie to usłyszeli, poruszyli się do głębi serca i zapytali Piotra i innych apostołów: „Bracia, co mamy czynić?” 38 Piotr odpowiedział: „Nawróćcie się i niech każdy z was da się ochrzcić w imię Jezusa Chrystusa na odpuszczenie grzechów waszych, a otrzymacie dar Ducha Świętego… Jana 3:3 Odpowiedział mu Jezus: Zaprawdę, zaprawdę, powiadam ci, jeśli się ktoś nie narodzi na nowo, nie może ujrzeć królestwa Bożego. Galacjan 1:9 Jak powiedzieliśmy przedtem, tak teraz jeszcze raz mówię: Jeśli wam ktoś głosi ewangelię różną od tej, którą przyjęliście, niech będzie pod Bożym przekleństwem! 10 Czy teraz szukam aprobaty ludzi czy Boga? A może staram się zadowolić mężczyzn? Gdybym nadal próbował zadowolić ludzi, nie byłbym sługą Jeszuy. ● Micheasza 4:2 Wiele narodów przyjdzie i powie: „Chodźcie, wstąpmy na górę Jahwe i do domu Boga Jakuba, aby nas nauczył dróg swoich i abyśmy chodzili Jego „Albowiem z Syjonu wyjdzie Prawo, słowo Jehowy z Jerozolimy. 3 On będzie sądził między wieloma narodami i wyda wyroki potężnym narodom dalekim. Wtedy przekują swoje miecze na lemiesze, a swoje włócznie na lemiesze. sierpy; naród przeciw narodowi nie podniesie miecza i już nigdy nie będą się zaprawiać do wojny. Pierwsze Zmartwychwstanie i 1000-letnie panowanie Świętych na ziemi. Werset 4: I widziałem trony, i siedzieli na nich, i dano im sąd; i widziałem dusze tych, którzy zostali ścięci za świadectwo Jeszuy i za słowo Boże, i którzy nie oddawali czci Bogu bestia (Antychryst), ani jego obraz, ani nie przyjęli jego znamienia na czołach ani na rękach; żyli i królowali z Chrystusem przez tysiąc lat. Objawienie 20:7 A gdy się skończy tysiąc lat, szatan zostanie wypuszczony ze swego więzienia,8 I wyjdzie, aby zwieść narody, które są na czterech stronach ziemi, Goga i Magoga, i zgromadzić je razem, aby bitwa, której liczba jest jak piasek morski. 9 I wyruszyli na szerokość ziemi, i otoczyli obóz świętych, i miasto umiłowane, a ogień zstąpił z nieba od Boga i pochłonął ich Nowe Niebo i Nowa Ziemia Objawienie 21:1 Potem ujrzałem „nowe niebo i nową ziemię”, bo pierwsze niebo i pierwsza ziemia przeminęły i morza już nie ma. 2 Widziałem Święte Miasto, nowe Jeruzalem, zstępujące z nieba od Boga, przygotowane jak oblubienica pięknie ubrana dla swego męża. 3 I usłyszałem donośny głos mówiący od tronu: „Patrz! Mieszkanie Boga jest teraz wśród ludzi, a On zamieszka z nimi. Będą Jego ludem, a sam Bóg będzie z nimi i będzie ich Bogiem. 4 „Otrze z ich oczu wszelką łzę. Nie będzie już śmierci'[b] ani żałoby, ani płaczu, ani bólu, ponieważ stary porządek rzeczy przeminął”5. Ten, który siedział na tronie, powiedział: „Czynię wszystko nowe!” Potem powiedział: „Zapisz to, bo te słowa są godne zaufania i prawdziwe”6. Rzekł do mnie: „Stało się. Jestem Alfą i Omegą, Początkiem i Końcem. Spragnionemu dam darmo wodę ze źródła wody życia. 7 Zwycięzcy odziedziczą to wszystko i będę ich Bogiem, a oni będą moimi dzieci. 8 Ale tchórze, niewierzący, podli, zabójcy, rozpustnicy, uprawiający sztuki magiczne, bałwochwalcy i wszyscy kłamcy — zostaną wrzuceni do ognistego jeziora gorejącej siarki. To jest druga śmierć”. Nowe Jeruzalem, Oblubienica Baranka Objawienie 21:9 Przyszedł jeden z siedmiu aniołów, którzy mieli siedem czasz pełnych siedmiu plag ostatecznych, i rzekł do mnie: Chodź, pokażę ci oblubienicę, małżonkę Baranka. Ducha na wielką i wysoką górę i pokazał mi miasto święte Jeruzalem, zstępujące z nieba od Boga. 11 Świecił chwałą Bożą, a jego blask był jak drogocenny klejnot, jak jaspis, czysty jak kryształ. 12 Miało ono wielki i wysoki mur z dwunastoma bramami i dwunastoma aniołami u bram. Na bramach były wypisane imiona dwunastu plemion Izraela. 13 Były trzy bramy od wschodu, trzy od północy, trzy od południa i trzy od zachodu. 14 Mur miasta miał dwanaście fundamentów, a na nich imiona dwunastu apostołów Baranka. 15 Anioł, który ze mną rozmawiał, miał złoty pręt mierniczy do mierzenia miasta, jego bram i murów. 16 Miasto było rozplanowane na planie kwadratu, byle było szerokie. Zmierzył miasto laską i stwierdził, że ma 12 000 stadionów długości, a jego szerokość i wysokość są równie długie. 17 Anioł zmierzył mur miarą ludzką i miał on grubość 144 łokci. 18 Ściana była zrobiona z jaspisu, a miasto ze szczerego złota, czystego jak szkło. 19 Fundamenty murów miejskich były ozdobione wszelkimi drogocennymi kamieniami. Pierwszym fundamentem był jaspis, drugi szafir, trzeci agat, czwarty szmaragd, 20 piąty onyks, szósty rubin, siódmy chryzolit, ósmy beryl, dziewiąty topaz, dziesiąta turkus, jedenasty hiacynt, dwunasty ametyst. 21 Dwanaście bram było to dwanaście pereł, a każda brama była zrobiona z jednej perły. Wielka ulica miasta była ze złota, czystego jak przezroczyste szkło. 22 Nie widziałem świątyni w mieście, bo Pan Bóg wszechmogący i Lambare jego świątynia. 23 Miasto nie potrzebuje słońca ani księżyca, aby mu świeciły, bo oświeca je chwała Boża, a jego lampą jest Baranek. 24 Narody będą chodzić w jego świetle, a królowie ziemi wniosą do niego swoją wspaniałość. 25 W żadnym dniu jego bramy nie będą zamknięte, bo nie będzie tam nocy. 26 Wniesiona zostanie do niego chwała i cześć narodów. 27 Nie wejdzie do niego nic nieczystego ani nikt, kto dopuszcza się haniebnych lub podstępnych czynów, tylko ci, których imiona są zapisane w księdze życia Baranka.

    "Do you want to believe what the Bible says or what you have been taught it says? I can prove it The Final Verdict "The cross was never meant to be a place where the Law died; it was the place where the Penalty was paid so that you could finally be empowered to obey. If you come to the cross but flee from the Commandments, you haven't been saved —you've just been comforted in your rebellion."You’re like a convict handed a full pardon who chooses to stay locked up just for the free meals." Stop turning back. The same Yeshua who bled for you is the same God who wrote the Commandments with His own finger. "You cannot have the King without His Commandments. Choose the whole Truth, or you have nothing at all." Betrayal of God Names matters 12 tribes of Israel Hej, Christianie, masz problem, gdzie jest o tym mowa w Piśmie Świętym? Chrystus urodził się 25 grudnia. Że umarł w Wielki Piątek i zmartwychwstał w Niedzielę Wielkanocną? Sabat został zmieniony na dzień zmartwychwstania i można nad nim pracować? Prawo i Chrystus przybity do drzewa? Że chrześcijanie są wymienieni w nowym przymierzu? Że nie musisz żyć tak, jak żył Chrystus? Możesz dotknąć i zjeść każde nieczyste mięso? To w porządku, aby świętować Boże Narodzenie, Wielkanoc i Halloween? Że nie trzeba być wszczepionym w Izrael, aby być zbawionym? Kiedy chrześcijanie umierają, idą do nieba? Raz zapisane zawsze zapisane? Chrzest jest tylko symboliczny? Stary Testmate jest dla Żydów? Chrześcijanie zostaną porwani, a Żydzi zostaną pozostawieni? Nikt nie może przestać praktykować grzechu. 9. The Legal Contradiction You claim the blood of Yeshua washed away your sins. But 1 John 233:4 says sin is the breaking of the Law. The Confrontation: "How can you celebrate being saved from your sins while simultaneously bragging that you don't have to keep the Law? If the Law is gone, then sin no longer exists, and you didn't even need a Savior. Read 1 John 3:4." The Verse: "Whosoever committeth sin transgresseth also the law: for sin is the transgression of the law." The Shock: "If you refuse to keep the Commandments, you are saying, 'I want to be forgiven for breaking the rules, but I reserve the right to keep breaking them.' That isn't faith; that is a legal insult to the Judge. You are asking for a pardon while holding the weapon you used to commit the crime." The "Love" Deception Most people say, "I don't need the Commandments; I just love God." The Confrontation: "You claim to love the Creator, but you refuse to listen to how He wants to be loved. The Bible doesn't let you define love your way. Read 1 John 5:3." The Verse: "For this is the love of God, that we keep his commandments: and his commandments are not grievous." The Shock: "If you turn away when confronted by the Commandments, you are proving that you don't actually love God—you love the feeling of being forgiven. You love yourself, not the Creator." The "Narrow Gate" vs. The "Wide Cross" People want a "Wide Cross" that accepts everyone regardless of their rebellion. But Yeshua described a Narrow Gate. The Confrontation: "Modern religion has invented a broad path where you can confess Messiah with your lips but live like the rest of the world. But the real Yeshua didn't offer a frictionless road. Read Matthew 7:13-14." The Verse: "Enter by the narrow gate; for wide is the gate and broad is the way that leads to destruction, and there are many who go in by it. Because narrow is the gate and difficult is the way which leads to life, and there are few who find it." The Shock: "The Gate is narrow because the Commandments are the boundary. If you turn around when you see the requirements of the Sabbath, the Dietary Laws, and the Appointed Times, you are choosing the Wide Road. You are essentially saying the price of following the real Yeshua is too high. You would rather have a comfortable lie than a difficult Truth." The "Great Disconnect" (The Hypocrisy of the Covenant) This is the "Great Disconnect" of modern Christianity. People treat the cross like a drive-through window for mercy, but they treat the Commandments like a wall they refuse to climb. The Confrontation: "You want the benefits of a King without honoring His jurisdiction. You claim the protection of the Blood of the Covenant, but you flatly reject the Terms of the Covenant. You cannot sign a legal contract, claim the inheritance, and then tear up the stipulations. Read Hebrews 10:29." The Verse: " Of how much worse punishment, do you suppose, will he be thought worthy who has trampled the Son of God underfoot, counted the blood of the covenant by which he was sanctified a common thing, and insulted the Spirit of grace?" The Shock: "If you are delivering this as a 'Shock and Awe' message, you have to expose the hypocrisy of wanting the Blood of the Covenant while rejecting the Terms of the Covenant. To take His blood for your cleansing while calling His Sabbath or His dietary instructions 'done away with' is to treat His sacrifice as a cheap license for lawlessness. You aren't honoring the Savior; you are treating the ultimate cosmic execution as a get-out-of-jail-free card so you can keep running your own life." . The Cowardice of the Partial Convert "You are willing to walk to the cross because it feels like a gift, but you turn your back the moment you see the Commandments. You want a Savior, but you refuse a Lord." The Confrontation: "You have a selective faith that only accepts the parts of God that give you comfort while fleeing from the parts that demand your submission. You want the security of His sacrifice, but you are too terrified to let Him govern your schedule, your plate, or your lifestyle. Read Luke 6:46." The Verse: "But why do you call Me ‘Lord, Lord,’ and do not do the things which I say?" The Shock: "A partial conversion is nothing more than spiritual cowardice. It is the mindset of a person who wants the crown but despises the crown's authority. True conversion requires a total surrender of your self-will. If you only obey God when it aligns with what you already wanted to do, you aren't serving the King—you are still serving yourself." The Proof of Love In John 14:15, Yeshua directly links love to action, removing all room for emotional sentimentality or lip service. The Confrontation: "You can weep at the altar, raise your hands during the worship songs, and tell anyone who will listen how much you love Jesus. But the Messiah Himself does not measure your love by your goosebumps or your tears. He measures it by your track record of obedience. Read John 14:15." The Verse: "If ye love me, keep my commandments." The Shock: "To claim you love Him while walking in open defiance of His Torah—ignoring His Sabbath, His Dietary Laws, and His Appointed Times—is a profound delusion. You are treating the King of Kings like a casual boyfriend whom you can sweet-talk while completely ignoring his boundaries and expectations. True love isn't an emotion you feel; it is a legal, actionable commitment to submit to His authority." Testing Your Profession In 1 John 2:4, the Scripture sets an absolute, uncompromising standard for anyone who claims to belong to the Almighty, emphasizing that lip service without a changed life is a falsehood. The Confrontation: "You tell people you have a personal relationship with the Creator. You check the box on your social media profile, wear the jewelry, and claim to 'know' Him. But the Bible has a brutal, single-sentence test to determine if you are telling the truth or telling a lie. Read 1 John 2:4." The Verse: "He that saith, 'I know him,' and keepeth not his commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in him." The Shock: "This isn't a suggestion; it's a legal verdict from the Word of God. According to the Apostle John, if you boast about knowing the Savior but refuse to guard His Torah—His Sabbath, His Dietary Laws, and His Appointed Times—the Bible doesn't call you a 'growing Christian' or a 'believer under grace.' It calls you a liar. If your profession of faith doesn't alter your lifestyle, your calendar, and your obedience, your testimony is nothing but a fraudulent presentation to the world." The Distinction (Stumble vs. Betrayal) You have to know the difference between a servant who trips on the path and a rebel who walks off it. The Confrontation: "Many people excuse their lifelong disregard for God's instructions by saying, 'Nobody's perfect, we all stumble.' But there is a massive legal difference between a soldier who falls in the mud during battle and a deserter who runs to the enemy's camp. Read Proverbs 24:16." The Verse: "For a righteous man may fall seven times and rise again, but the wicked shall fall into calamity." The Shock: "A stumble is a mistake made while trying to stay on the narrow path, followed by immediate repentance (Teshuvah). Betrayal is the intentional decision to walk away from the path because you prefer your own way over His. Bottom Line: Betrayal is knowing the Master’s house rules and choosing to treat them as optional. When you know the Sabbath, the Dietary Laws, and the Appointed Times are His standard, yet you deliberately choose to treat them as suggestions, you aren't stumbling—you are walking in open revolt." The Reality of False Conversion: Just Getting Wet True salvation demands a total legal surrender: absolute repentance, a dedication to obedience, and the execution of baptism. If you go through these motions without a radical change of mind and direction, you are simply getting wet. The Confrontation: "People treat baptism like a magical ritual that automatically punches their ticket to heaven, regardless of how they live afterward. But water cannot wash away a rebellious heart. You walk out of the water just as lost as you went in, because an unrepented record of debt cannot be canceled. Read Acts 5:32." The Verse: " And we are His witnesses to these things, and so also is the Holy Spirit whom God has given to those who obey Him." The Shock: "To legally belong to the Creator, you must receive His Holy Spirit and actively walk in His Truth. But here is the hard line: God will never give His Holy Spirit to those who choose to live in disobedience. If your lifestyle still rejects the Sabbath, the Dietary Laws, and His Appointed Times, you are operating without the Spirit of Christ. You haven't been born again; you just went for a swim while holding onto your sins." The Execution of Spiritual Blindness Without the indwelling of the Spirit, a devastating spiritual sentence is carried out against you. The Confrontation: "You think you can reject the Master's instructions and still have spiritual clarity. But the moment you walk away from His Torah, a legal judgment takes place in your mind. You are stripped of your discernment, leaving you completely vulnerable. Read Isaiah 29:10." The Verse: "For the Lord has poured out on you the spirit of deep sleep, and has closed your eyes, the prophets; and He has covered your heads, the seers." The Shock: "Without the indwelling of the Spirit, a devastating spiritual sentence is carried out against you: The Standard of True Alignment True alignment with the Almighty cannot be faked, bartered, or replaced by a pastoral ritual. It requires a two-part structural reality. The Confrontation: "Many believe that a regular church attendance record, a title, or a recommendation from a pastor gives them legal standing before the throne. But the Judge does not accept human credentials or forged paperwork. Read John 4:24." The Verse: "God is Spirit, and those who worship Him must worship in spirit and truth." The Shock: "True alignment requires a two-part structural reality: An Internal Transformation executed strictly by the Holy Spirit. An Unwavering Commitment to worship Him in Spirit and in absolute, uncompromised Truth. Without both, you are standing in a courtroom trying to present a fraudulent contract to the Judge. You cannot bring the 'spirit' of emotional worship while throwing out the 'truth' of His Commandments, nor can you bring cold ritual without the Spirit. If you lack either one, the contract is null and void, and you are legally exposed before the Court." The Resurrection: The "True" Hope In the Hebrew mindset, the reward isn't "going to heaven" as a disembodied soul. The reward is the Resurrection of the Body at the end of the age. The Confrontation: "Modern religion has invented a sentimental, unbiblical fairy tale about floating off to heaven on a cloud the moment you die. This pagan view of a disembodied afterlife completely bypasses the central hope of the scriptures: the physical resurrection from the dead. Read John 3:13 and Acts 2:34." The Verses: * Yeshua’s Fact: "No one has ascended to heaven but He who came down from heaven, that is, the Son of Man who is in heaven." (John 3:13) David’s Fact: "For David did not ascend into the heavens..." (Acts 2:34) The Shock: "The Biblical Timeline is clear: when a person dies, they return to the dust—entering a state of sleep in Sheol—where they remain until they are awakened by the Master at the 'Last Trumpet.' By replacing the Resurrection with an instant escape-to-heaven philosophy, you strip the return of Messiah of its ultimate power. You don't go to Him in the sky forever; He comes down here to awaken His saints from the dirt, conquer death, and establish His physical Kingdom on the earth." The "Thief on the Cross" Objection This is the verse most often used by the carnal mind to "prove" that people go to heaven immediately when they die, bypassing the resurrection. The Confrontation: "People point to the thief on the cross as a get-out-of-jail-free card for an instant escape to heaven. They use one sentence to wipe out the entire biblical timeline of the resurrection. But they are completely missing the grammatical and historical reality of the text. Read Luke 23:43." The Verses: * The Thief's Request: "Lord, remember me when You come into Your kingdom." (Luke 23:42) Yeshua's Response: "And Jesus said to him, 'Assuredly, I say to you, today you will be with Me in Paradise.'" (Luke 23:43) The Shock: " The original Greek text had no punctuation or commas. Where a translator places the comma completely changes the meaning: Interpretation A (Traditional): 'Truly I tell you, today you will be with me...' Interpretation B (Hebrew Context): 'Truly I tell you today, you will be with me in paradise.' The absolute proof is that Yeshua Himself did not go to Paradise or heaven that afternoon. He went into the heart of the earth for three days and three nights. Three days later, He told Mary Magdalene in John 20:17, 'Do not cling to Me, for I have not yet ascended to My Father.' If the Master Himself hadn't gone to heaven yet, the thief wasn't there either. Yeshua was giving a solemn promise on that specific day of crucifixion that the thief would ultimately have a place in the future, physical Kingdom at the resurrection." The "Truth Only" Summary According to the literal text, when a person dies, they "rest" or "sleep" in the grave (Sheol). They remain there, unconscious of the passage of time, until the Resurrection at the return of Yeshua. The Confrontation: " Stop looking for an escape hatch into a disembodied, spiritualized ether. The Almighty created man from the dirt of the ground, and His ultimate plan has always been a physical, earthly inheritance. The focus of the end times is not about us going up to live with Him—it is about Him coming down to live with us. Read Revelation 21:3." The Verse: " And I heard a loud voice from heaven saying, ‘Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men, and He will dwell with them, and they shall be His people. God Himself will be with them and be their God.’" The Shock: "The 'True' destination for the righteous is not a distant heaven, but a restored Earth where the Master sets up His throne. You are not going to spend eternity floating away from the physical creation; you are going to be resurrected into an incorruptible body to rule and reign right here on the ground. To cling to the traditional 'heavenly reward' is to fundamentally misunderstand the destination of the Narrow Road." To address the "true rapture" using the Truth Only approach, we must distinguish between the popular modern "Left Behind" theory and what is actually written in the original Greek and Hebrew manuscripts. The Confrontation: " Modern church culture has fed you a comforting fairy tale of a secret, silent escape pod designed to snatch you away before things get difficult. You’ve been trained to look for a backdoor out of tribulation instead of preparing your house to endure it. Read 1 Thessalonians 4:17." The Verse: "Then we who are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And so we shall always be with the Lord." The Shock: "The word 'Rapture' does not even appear in your English Bible. It comes from the Latin rapio, translating the Greek harpazo (to snatch or seize). But the modern church has completely twisted the mechanics, the timing, and the purpose of this event to fit a narrative that the ancient prophets and apostles never taught." 1. The Timeline: Pre-Tribulation vs. Post-Tribulation The most common modern teaching suggests that believers disappear before a time of trouble. However, if we look at the literal words of Yeshua, the sequence is completely reversed. The Verse (Matthew 24:29-31): "Immediately after the tribulation of those days... they will see the Son of Man coming on the clouds of heaven with power and great glory. And He will send His angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they will gather together His elect from the four winds..." The Shock: "In the literal words of the Messiah Himself, the 'gathering'—what you call the Rapture—happens after the tribulation, not before. The modern church is prepping people for an escape that isn't coming, leaving an entire generation completely unequipped to stand firm in the face of the enemy." 2. The "One Taken, One Left" Misconception Many people use Matthew 24:40 ("two men will be in the field; one will be taken and one left") to describe a secret vanishing act of the righteous. But in a Hebrew context, being 'taken' is a death sentence. The Verse (Matthew 24:38-39): "For as in the days before the flood, they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noah entered the ark, and did not know until the flood came and took them all away, so also will the coming of the Son of Man be." The Shock: "Go back to the pattern of Noah's day. The ones 'taken' were not the righteous flying away to safety—the ones 'taken' were the wicked who were swept away by the judgment of the flood to their destruction! The ones 'left behind' were Noah and his family, the righteous who remained on the ground to inherit the cleansed earth. You are actively praying for the wrong outcome." 3. The Historical Origin of the Secret Escape If this secret, pre-tribulation flight plan isn't in the literal words of Scripture, where did it come from? The Fact: "This doctrine was virtually unknown for the first 1,800 years of Church history. It was popularized around 1830 AD by John Nelson Darby, who developed a system called 'Dispensationalism.' It became cement in the American mind when it was printed in the study footnotes of the Scofield Reference Bible in 1909. You are risking your spiritual survival on a 19th-century human invention that was cross-referenced into your margins." 4. The Hebrew Concept: The Royal Meeting In the ancient world, when a King or a Bridegroom approached a city, the citizens did not run out to meet him so they could escape with him back to his home. They went out to escort him into their territory. The Verse (Matthew 25:6): "And at midnight a cry was heard: ‘Behold, the bridegroom is coming; go out to meet him!’" The Shock: " In 1 Thessalonians 4:17, the Greek word for 'meet' is apantesis. In ancient custom, and in every other New Testament usage (like the Parable of the Ten Virgins), apantesis means going out to greet an arriving dignitary and immediately turning around to escort him back to where he was heading. The 'Rapture' is not a flight away to heaven for seven years; it is a glorious, royal welcome in the air to meet the arriving King, Yeshua, as He descends to execute judgment and establish His permanent Kingdom right here on E arth."

Bo zabrzmi trąba, umarli powstaną niezniszczalni, a my zostaniemy przemienieni. 53 To, co zniszczalne, musi przyodziać się w niezniszczalność, a to, co śmiertelne, w nieśmiertelność. 54 Gdy to, co zniszczalne, przyodzieje się w to, co niezniszczalne, a to, co śmiertelne, w nieśmiertelność, wtedy spełni się słowo napisane: „Zwycięstwo pochłonęło śmierć”. 2 Koryntian 5:8 Wiemy bowiem, że jeśli nasz ziemski dom, ten namiot, ulegnie zniszczeniu, otrzymamy budowlę od Boga, dom nieuczyniony rękami, wieczny w niebie. 2 Bo w tym wzdychamy, usilnie pragnąc przyodziać się w nasze mieszkanie, które jest z nieba, 3 jeśli rzeczywiście, przyodziani, nie okażemy się nadzy. 4 Bo my, którzy jesteśmy w tym namiocie, wzdychamy, będąc obciążeni, nie dlatego, że chcemy być nadzy, ale przyodziani, aby życie pochłonęło śmiertelność. 5 A tym, który nas do tego właśnie przygotował, jest Bóg, który również dał nam jako gwarancję Ducha. 6 Dlatego zawsze jesteśmy ufni, wiedząc, że przebywając w ciele, jesteśmy oddaleni od Pana. 7 Bo postępujemy wiarą, a nie widzeniem. 8 Jesteśmy pewni, tak, raczej zadowoleni z tego, że jesteśmy nieobecni w ciele i jesteśmy obecni u Pana. 9 Dlatego naszym celem, czy to obecnym, czy nieobecnym, jest to, aby Mu się podobać. 10 Wszyscy bowiem musimy stanąć przed tronem sędziowskim Chrystusa, aby każdy otrzymał to, co czynił w ciele, zgodnie z tym, co czynił, czy to dobrze, czy źle. 11 Znając tedy strach Pana, przekonujemy ludzi; ale jesteśmy dobrze znani Bogu i ufam również, że jest dobrze znana w waszych sumieniach. Piąta pieczęć: Krzyk męczenników Objawienie 6:9 Kiedy otworzył piątą pieczęć, ujrzałem pod ołtarzem dusze zabitych za słowo Boże i za świadectwo, które złożyli10. donośnym głosem, mówiąc: „Dokąd, Panie, święty i prawdziwy, będziesz sądził i pomścił krew naszą na mieszkańcach ziemi?” 11 I dano każdemu z nich białą szatę; i powiedziano im, aby jeszcze trochę odpoczęli, aż dopełni się zarówno liczba ich współsług, jak i ich braci, którzy mieli zostać zabici tak jak oni? A duch powróci do Boga Kaznodziei 12:5 Bo człowiek pójdzie do swojego domu, który trwa na wieki, podczas gdy ludzie przepełnieni smutkiem będą chodzić po ulicach. 6 Pamiętaj o Nim, zanim srebrna lina życia zostanie zerwana, a złote naczynie zmiażdżone. Pamiętajcie o Nim, zanim garnek przy studni się stłucze, a koło przy wodopoju zmiażdży. 7 Wtedy proch powróci do ziemi, tak jak był. A duch powróci do Boga, który go dał Rodzaju 2:7 Wtedy PAN Bóg ulepił człowieka z prochu ziemi. Tchnął tchnienie życia w nozdrza tego człowieka, a człowiek stał się żywą osobą. Job 27:3 3 Przez cały czas jest we mnie mój oddech i duch Boży w moich nozdrzach; Job 33:4 4 Duch Boży mnie stworzył, a tchnienie Wszechmocnego ożywiło mnie. Kaznodziei Salomona 12:7 7 Wtedy powróci proch do ziemi, tak jak był, a duch powróci do Boga, który go dał. 1 Koryntian 2:11 Bo któż wie, co jest w człowieku, oprócz ducha człowieczego, który w nim jest? tak i spraw Bożych nikt nie zna, tylko Duch Boży. Ezechiela 37:5-6 Tak powiedział Pan BÓG do tych kości; Oto wprowadzę w was tchnienie i ożyjecie. 6 I włożę na was ścięgna, i uczynię z was ciało, i okryję was skórą, i tchnę w was tchnienie, a będziecie żyli; i poznacie, że Ja jestem Pan. Kto wstąpił do nieba? W Biblii są cztery sytuacje, w których wydaje się, że ludzie poszli do Nieba; Eliasz, Łazarz i Złodziej na krzyżu i nieobecni w ciele obecnym z Jehową. 2Krl 2:11 I stało się, gdy tak rozmawiali i rozmawiali, że nagle pojawił się rydwan ognisty z rumakami ognistymi i rozdzielił ich obu; a Eliasz wśród wichru wstąpił do nieba. Jana 3:13 Nikt nie wstąpił do nieba, tylko Ten, który z nieba zstąpił, to jest Syn Człowieczy, który jest w niebie. 2 Kronik 21:12 I przyszedł do niego list od proroka Eliasza tej treści: (około 10 lat później ten list dowodzi, że on (Eliasz) nie został wzięty do nieba) Tak mówi Panie, Boże twojego ojca Dawida: Ponieważ nie chodziłeś drogami Jehoszafat, twój ojciec, albo na sposób Asy, króla judzkiego, Bogacz i Łazarz ● Ew. Łukasza 16:19-23 „Był pewien bogaty człowiek, który był ubrany w purpurę i bisior i codziennie wystawnie się bawił. 20 A pewien żebrak, imieniem Łazarz, pełen wrzodów, leżał u jego wrót, 21 pragnąc nasycić się okruchami, które spadły ze stołu bogacza. Co więcej, psy przychodziły i lizały jego wrzody. 22 I stało się, że żebrak umarł i został zaniesiony przez aniołów łono Abrahama. Bogacz również umarł i został pochowany. 23 A będąc w mękach w Hadesie, podniósł oczy i ujrzał z daleka Abrahama i Łazarza na jego łonie. Łukasza 16:29 Odpowiedział mu Abraham: „Mają Mojżesza i proroków; niech ich usłyszą”. 30 A on rzekł: „Nie, ojcze Abrahamie; ale jeśli ktoś z umarłych pójdzie do nich, upamiętają się'”. 31 A on mu rzekł: „Jeżeli Mojżesza i proroków nie słuchają, to choćby ktoś z martwych powstał, nie uwierzą”. Złodziej na krzyżu Łukasza 23:39-42 Wtedy rzekł do Jezusa: „Panie, wspomnij na mnie, gdy przyjdziesz do swego królestwa.”43 A Jezus mu rzekł: „Zaprawdę, powiadam ci, dzisiaj będziesz Ja w raju”. Pamiętaj o tym Pisma hebrajskie nie miały przecinków. Mówi „raj”, a nie niebo. Złodziej powiedział: „Pamiętaj o mnie, gdy przyjdziesz do swego królestwa”. Jana 20:17 Rzekł do niej Jeszua: „Nie zatrzymuj mnie, bo jeszcze nie wstąpiłem do Ojca mego; ale idźcie do Moich braci i powiedzcie im: „Wstępuję do Ojca mego i Ojca waszego oraz do Boga mego i Boga waszego”. Bo jak Jonasz był trzy dni i trzy noce we wnętrznościach wielkiej ryby, tak Syn Człowieczy będzie trzy dni i trzy noce w sercu ziemi. nieobecny w ciele obecnym u Jahwe. Pewność Zmartwychwstania 2 Koryntian 5:8 Wiemy bowiem, że jeśli nasz ziemski dom, ten namiot, zostanie zniszczony, otrzymamy budowlę od Boga, dom nieuczyniony rękami, wieczny w niebie. 2 Bo w tym wzdychamy, usilnie pragnąc przyodziać się w nasze mieszkanie, które jest z nieba, 3 jeśli rzeczywiście, przyodziani, nie okażemy się nadzy. 4 Albowiem my, którzy jesteśmy w tym namiocie, wzdychamy, obciążeni, nie dlatego, że chcemy być nadzy, ale przyodziani, aby życie pochłonęło śmiertelność. 5 A tym, który nas do tego właśnie przygotował, jest Bóg, który również dał nam jako gwarancję Ducha. 6 Dlatego zawsze jesteśmy ufni, wiedząc, że przebywając w ciele, jesteśmy oddaleni od Pana. 7 Bo postępujemy wiarą, a nie widzeniem. 8 Jesteśmy pewni, tak, raczej zadowoleni z tego, że jesteśmy nieobecni w ciele i jesteśmy obecni u Pana. 9 Dlatego naszym celem, czy to obecnym, czy nieobecnym, jest to, aby Mu się podobać. 10 Wszyscy bowiem musimy stanąć przed tronem sędziowskim Chrystusa, aby każdy otrzymał to, co czynił w ciele, zgodnie z tym, co czynił, czy to dobrze, czy źle. 11 Znając tedy strach Pana, przekonujemy ludzi; ale jesteśmy dobrze znani Bogu i ufam, że dobrze znani są także wasze sumienia.

Zaprawdę, powiadam wam, nie zostanie tu kamień na kamieniu, który by nie został rozwalony”. Znaki czasu i koniec wieku 3 A gdy siedział na Górze Oliwnej, podeszli do Niego uczniowie na osobności i pytali: „Powiedz nam, kiedy to się stanie? A jaki będzie znak Twego przyjścia i końca wieku?” 4 A Jezus odpowiadając, rzekł im: „Uważajcie, żeby was nikt nie zwiódł. 5 Albowiem wielu przyjdzie pod moim imieniem, mówiąc: Ja jestem Mesjaszem, i wielu zwiodą. 6 I usłyszycie o wojnach i pogłoskach wojennych.

The Man of Lawlessness 2 Concerning the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ and our being gathered to him, we ask you, brothers and sisters, 2 not to become easily unsettled or alarmed by the teaching allegedly from us—whether by a prophecy or by word of mouth or by letter—asserting that the day of the Lord has already come. 3 Don’t let anyone deceive you in any way, for that day will not come until the rebellion occurs and the man of lawlessness is revealed, the man doomed to destruction. 4 He will oppose and will exalt himself over everything that is called God or is worshiped, so that he sets himself up in God’s temple, proclaiming himself to be God. The Coming of the Lord 13 But we do not want you to be uninformed, brothers, about those who are asleep, that you may not grieve as others do who have no hope. 14 For since we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so, through Jesus, God will bring with him those who have fallen asleep. 15 For this we declare to you by a word from the Lord,d that we who are alive, who are left until the coming of the Lord, will not precede those who have fallen asleep. 16 For the Lord himself will descend from heaven with a cry of command, with the voice of an archangel, and with the sound of the trumpet of God. And the dead in Christ will rise first. 17 Then we who are alive, who are left, will be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air, and so in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet; for the trumpet will sound, and the dead will be raised imperishable, and we will be changed.1 Corinthians 15:52 At the last Trumpets the Seventh trumpet. on the east of Trumpets Matthew 24:1–51 Jesus Foretells Destruction of the Temple 24 Jesus left the temple and was going away when his disciples came to point out to him the buildings of the temple. 2 But he answered them, “You see all these, do you not? Truly, I say to you, there will not be left here one stone upon another that will not be thrown down.” Signs of the End of the Age 3 As he sat on the Mount of Olives, the disciples came to him privately, saying, “Tell us, when will these things be, and what will be the sign of your coming and of the end of the age?” 4 And Jesus answered them, a “See that no one leads you astray. 5 For many will come in my name, saying, ‘I am the Christ,’ and they will lead many astray. 6 And you will hear of wars and rumors of wars. See that you d are not be alarmed, for this must take place, but the end is not yet. 7 For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom, and there will be famines and earthquakes in various places. 8 All these are but the beginning of the birth pains. 9 “Then they will deliver you up to tribulation and put you to death, and you will be hated by all nations for my name’s sake. 10 And then many will fall away1 and betray one another and hate one another. 11 And many false prophets will arise and lead many astray. 12 And because lawlessness will be increased, the love of many will grow cold. 13 But the one who endures to the end will be saved. 14 And this gospel of the kingdom 15 “So when you see the abomination of desolation spoken of by the prophet Daniel, standing in the holy place (let the reader understand), 16 then let those who are in Judea flee to the mountains. 17 Let the one who is on the housetop not go down to take what is in his house, 18 and let the one who is in the field not turn back to take his cloak. 19 And b alas for women who are pregnant and for those who are nursing infants in those days! 20 Pray that your flight may not be in winter or on a Sabbath. 21 For then there will be great tribulation, such as has not been from the beginning of the world until now, no, and never will be. 22 And if those days had not been cut short, no human being would be saved. But for the sake of the elect, those days will be cut short. 23 then if anyone says to you, ‘Look, here is the Christ!’ or ‘There he is!’ do not believe it. 24 For false Christs and false prophets will arise and perform great signs and wonders, so as to lead astray, if possible, even the elect. 25 See, I have told you beforehand. 26 So, if they say to you, ‘Look, he is in the wilderness,’ do not go out. If they say, ‘Look, he is in the inner rooms,’ do not believe it. 27 For as the lightning comes from the east and shines as far as the west, so will be the coming of the Son of Man. 28 Wherever the corpse is, there the vultures will gather. The Coming of the Son of Man 29 “Immediately after the tribulation of those days the sun will be darkened, and the moon will not give its light, and the stars will fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens will be shaken. 30 Then will appear in heaven the sign of the Son of Man, and then t all the tribes of the earth will mourn, and they will see the Son of Man coming on the clouds of heaven with power and great glory. 31 And we will send out his angels with a loud trumpet call, and they will gather his elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other. The Man of Lawlessness 2 Concerning the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ and our being gathered to him, we ask you, brothers and sisters, 2 not to become easily u nsettled or alarmed by the teaching allegedly from us—whether by a prophecy or by word of mouth or by letter—asserting that the day of the Lord has already come. 3 Don’t let anyone deceive you in any way, for that day will not come until the rebellion occurs and the man of lawlessness is revealed , the man doomed to destruction. 4 He will oppose and will exalt himself over everything that is called God or is worshiped, so that he sets himself up in God’s temple, proclaiming himself to be God.

    God’s Promises to Those Who Keep His Commands God will reveal Himself to us. “He that hath my commandments, and keepeth them, he it is that loveth me: and he that loveth me shall be loved of my Father, and I will love him, and will manifest myself to him” (John 14:21 ). God will dwell with us. “If a man love me, he will keep my words: and my Father will love him, and we will come unto him, and make our abode with him” (John 14:23 ). We will abide in God’s love and our joy will be full. “If ye keep my commandments, ye shall abide in my love; even as I have kept my Father’s commandments, and abide in his love. These things have I spoken unto you, that my joy might remain in you, and that your joy might be full” (John 15:10–11 ). We will know that we know and love God. “And hereby we do know that we know him, if we keep his commandments. . . . Whoso keepeth his word, in him verily is the love of God perfected: hereby know we that we are in him” (I John 2:3 , 5 ). “If ye love me, keep my commandments ” (John 14:15 ). We will show love to God’s children. “By this we know that we love the children of God, when we love God, and keep his commandments” (I John 5:2 ). We will be friends of Christ. “Ye are my friends, if ye do whatsoever I command you” (John 15:14 ). Our prayers will be answered. “And whatsoever we ask, we receive of him, because we keep his commandments, and do those things that are pleasing in his sight” (I John 3:22 ). We will be disciples. “A new commandment I give unto you, That ye love one another; as I have loved you, that ye also love one another. By this shall all men know that ye are my disciples, if ye have love one to another ” (John 13:34–35 ). Remember: “For it is God which worketh in you both to will and to do of his good pleasure ” (Philippians 2:13 ). Living a life of obedience to God is not found by striving or trying harder, but rather by abiding in Christ. God is the One that works in you to will and to do His good pleasure. In I Thessalonians Chapter 5, after a list of important commands such as “Pray without ceasing,” “In every thing give thanks,” and “Quench not the Spirit,” we find this verse: “Faithful is he that calleth you, who also will do it” (verse 24). Praise God that He does not just give us these commands, but He also does them in and through us! The only way we are faithful is be The Hand: Representing action.
