Make Sure No One Deceives You

The primary gospel message being taught and accepted in the USA today, and perhaps throughout the world, is a diluted and altered “gospel” created in the minds of humans who remove Scriptures from their biblical context, and who twist them to teach what they do not say if taught in the correct biblical context, while they also ignore all the Scriptures that teach what they choose not to believe. And this is being done deliberately, from the top down, for the purpose to deceive and to lead people away from true faith.

Now, not everyone who believes the lies are those who are willfully trying to deceive people and to turn them away from genuine faith in the Lord Jesus, but many are. There are multitudes of people who are malicious, morally unclean, deceivers, manipulators, opportunists, liars, and the untrustworthy, who are egocentric, who fake their Christianity for the sole purpose to deceive the unsuspecting and the naïve with their half-truth lies. And they and their false gospel message are rapidly multiplying and deceiving.

So, what are the lies which they are spreading in the name of Jesus Christ, and in the name of the gospel of our salvation? The liars have reduced the message of the gospel to a mere profession (confession) of faith in Jesus Christ, but with no biblical requirements that we must put sin to death in our lives and that we must walk in obedience to our Lord and to his commands, in lifestyle (in practice), for us to be of genuine faith which saves and which assures us of eternal life with God. For they call that “works salvation.”

But the gospel message taught by Jesus, and by his New Testament apostles, teach us that faith which saves puts sin to death, by the Spirit, and it obeys God and his commandments, in practice. For the faith to believe in Christ is not of our own doing, not of the will of the flesh, but it is gifted to us by God. And it is persuaded of God as to his holiness and righteousness, and of our sinfulness, and of God’s requirement that we deny self, die to sin (not just once, but daily), and that we walk (in conduct, in practice) in obedience to his commands in holy living, or we don’t have life with him.

For the whole purpose of Jesus’ death and resurrection was to put our sins to death with him, and to rise from the dead victorious over our sins, so that, by biblical God-gifted faith in Jesus Christ we will now die to sin and live for God in walks of surrender to his will, in submission to his Lordship, and in obedience to his commands in holy living. Our lives are no longer to be our own, for we were bought back for God (redeemed by the blood of Christ) so that we will now honor God with our lives in walks of obedience to our Lord.

Therefore, please be aware that if sin is what you practice, and not obedience to the Lord and to his commands, in holy living, that you do not know God, and you are not in a relationship with Jesus Christ, and you do not have salvation from sin nor the hope of eternal life with God. For it is the one who practices righteousness who is righteous in the eyes of the Lord. And the one who practices sin (deliberately and habitually) is of the devil, not a child of God. Anyone who does not practice righteousness is not of God, nor the one who deliberately sins against others, and does not love.

“Come to Me all you who thirst; come to waters.
Listen to Me, and eat what’s good today,
And your soul will delight in richest of fare.
Give ear to Me, and you will live.
I have made an eternal covenant with you.
Wash in the blood of the Lamb.”

Seek the Lord while He may be found; call on Him.
Let the wicked forsake his way, in truth.
Let him turn to the Lord, and he will receive mercy.
Freely, God pardons him.
“For My thoughts are not your thoughts,
Nor are your ways My ways,”
declares the Lord, our God.

“My word that goes out of My mouth is truthful.
It will not return to Me unfulfilled.
My word will accomplish all that I desire,
And achieve the goal I intend.
You will go in joy and be led forth in peace.
The mountains will burst into song… before you,
And all of the trees clap their hands.”

Amen! I grew up in a house hold that taught (and the church I grew up in too) that mere confession that Jesus is Lord is enough for salvation. After that, if you decide you want to be Hitler, then that's okay because you're still saved. The Lord guided me to truth and while at first it was difficult to understand, I eventually accepted because there was just too much overwhelming evidence in scripture that opposed the view that I was raised in. When I started to debate my parents, I was met with the same argument. That this is works based salvation and when I pointed out that saving faith shows a difference in the way you act as we are called to be more Christ-like everyday, and that is is PROOF of our saving faith, I was met with being called self-righteous.

But it even goes deeper to that. Where righteousness isn't just turning from sin, but it's a desire to change your heart in total. That means letting go of hate because, "Whoever hates his brother is a murderer, and you know that no murderer has eternal life abiding in him." 1 John 3:15 and also the requirement to forgive others because, "But if you do not forgive men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses."- Matthew 6:15.

It is a long road, it is a struggle but that is literally the ENTIRE point of sending the holy spirit. So that we aren't trying to do this alone, but we have a help and a guide to convict us and keep pointing us in the right direction.
