My precious wife lives with Mr. Trouble and only she could mount up with wings like an eagle to deal with the rascal.
Holland has just paid us a visit (Hello my brother Jord). And to Lazarus & Hillsage & Marty Monster & MkGal know this: there are indications that across this little globe of ours individuals are reaching out for higher ground. Yes, dear ones, we cry for Him!
Something I wrote in another forum a few years ago, also addressing the false gospel of UR. You might do will to pay attention to it. Separating the body and blood from salvation (who is Christ) is nothing to be proud of...
Romans 3:24
being
justified freely by HIS GRACE through the
redemption that is
IN Christ Jesus
A growing heresy in these last days, and surely a division of the gospel, is the subtle deception that seeks to remove the payment from Christ. Proclaiming that those who are perishing already have redemption (the act of being saved from sin) outside of Christ; even though they reject Christ and want nothing to do with Him. The spirit behind this stronghold comes with a vicious tenacity, filled with deceit, looking to divide Christ from what he gave us on Calvary. This is a false grace that seeks to remove "the power of God" from the Grace of God. A division of the Gospel that proclaims the only thing missing from being born again is the “resurrection”. In this subtle deception they separate Jesus from what He gave on Calvary.
And what exactly did Jesus give us on Calvary? He gave Himself, His body and blood!! John chapter 6 is loaded with nuggets that refute the teaching that the body and blood are separate from Eternal Life (Jesus Christ).
John 6:27
Do not labor for the food which perishes, but for the food which endures to everlasting life, which the Son of Man will give you, because God the Father has set His seal on Him.”
Jesus is referring to Himself given to the world at Calvary. God GAVE his Son for the life of the world!!
John 6:32
Then Jesus said to them, “Most assuredly, I say to you, Moses did not give you the bread from heaven, but My Father gives you the true bread from heaven.
Jesus is the bread, therefore He is the sacrifice that gives LIFE TO THE WORLD!! Because he gave his flesh the veil of the temple was torn open allowing anyone, if they so choose, to partake (believe) and receive LIFE.
John 6:47-51
Most assuredly, I say to you, he who believes a in Me has everlasting life. 48 I am the bread of life. 49 Your fathers ate the manna in the wilderness, and are dead. 50 This is the bread which comes down from heaven, that one may eat of it and not die. 51 I am the living bread which came down from heaven. If anyone eats of this bread, he will live forever; and the bread that I shall give is My flesh, which I shall give for the life of the world.”
Here we see that it's IMPOSSIBLE to partake of the body and blood (crucified with Christ and forgiveness) without believing in Christ!! He is the sacrifice therefore He the PAYMENT for SIN!! When we believe In Him we partake of His body and blood, and at that moment we are crucified with Christ, receive forgiveness of sins, and are raised to LIFE!!
John 6:53-54
Then Jesus said to them, “Most assuredly, I say to you, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink His blood, you have no life in you. 54 Whoever eats My flesh and drinks My blood has eternal life, and I will raise him up at the last day.
58 This is the bread which came down from heaven—not as your fathers ate the manna, and are dead. He who eats this bread will live forever.”
There’s an evil stronghold that longs to divide the Gospel in the name of eternal life. They will often cherry pick these verses proclaiming that eternal life is separate from the body and blood of Christ, but John chapter 6 proves they are only heaping sins upon themselves for dividing the Gospel. Unless a person believes in the Lord Jesus Christ they have not partaken of the BREAD of LIFE and the BLOOD of FORGIVENESS therefore they have NO LIFE IN THEM!! Thus they have REJECTED the PAYMENT for their sins. And if they are so prideful as to die in their unbelief? They will surely DIE IN THEIR SINS!!
Why are so many on a quest to divide the gospel? Because the enemy is at work, and the offense of the cross makes it easy for the flesh to adapt to his plan. The cross is offending to Satan and the flesh, thus providing a strong temptation for the intellect of man. A temptation that will surely caress the flesh, until that prideful intellect has been laid to rest at the cross. Because ONLY at the cross do we find the POWER and WISDOM of Christ! The LIFE of the Son of God revealed with a MIGHTY POWER through the BODY and BLOOD of CHRIST!! This is our REDEEMER, our MESSIAH, our COUNSELOR, our HOPE, our FORGIVENESS, our LIFE…. THE PERFECT PASSOVER!!
