Peace in Christ.

Again, whosoever believes into the Son should not perish (the mortal body not dying from this earth ) but shall have an age-lasting life.

Think about Caleb (meaning “faithful”) who continued to live in the desert (while the unbelievers died off in the desert). He continued to live to enter into the Promised Land.

We shall live in this mortal body which shall be kept alive by our faith in Him.

The just shall live by faith.

By our faith in Him, we are kept mortally alive without perishing from this earth through this present evil age (an age-lasting life) unto what I like to call the “event horizon”: until the moment at the last trump that we are changed from mortal to immortal.

Then the saying comes into play: where o death is your victory? We will have them completely have circumvented death through our faith in Jesus Christ who already mortally died in our place so that we do not have to mortally die.

The “death” we experience now is to die to sin….the power of the cross of Jesus which shall keep our mortal bodies alive in this present evil age.

John 3:16-17
(16) For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life (AGE-LASTING life).

It is THIS WORLD that through Him might be saved. The salvation is now….not after we ‘die and go to heaven”. Dying = perishing.

(17) For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved.

If we forget the LORD our God (our Judge) and walk after other “gods” (other judges) and serve them and worship them, the we shall perish in our mortal bodies from this earth.

The other “gods” are the church handwritings of ordinances/dogmas that are being used to self-govern and self-judge as well as judging others with. They are patterned after the outside world’s (who do not profess to know God) documents.

The handwritings of men are being served and worshipped rather than doing serving and worshipping the true God by the doing of His commandments that are written upon our hearts.

The kingdom/government of God is within us and does not come by the outward observation (keeping) of man’s handwritings: their church constitutions, church by-laws, church statements of faith, etc.

Deu 8:19-20 KJV
(19) And it shall be, if thou do at all forget the LORD thy God, and walk after other gods, and serve them, and worship them, I testify against you this day that ye shall surely perish.


The people of this world around us are being mortally destroyed before our faces.

The world and its lust are perishing as there is no age-lasting life among the outside world. We also shall likewise mortally perish like them if we are not obedient unto His voice.

(20) As the nations which the LORD destroyeth before your face, so shall ye perish; because ye would not be obedient unto the voice of the LORD your God.

Again, don’t let a man deceive you into the worshipping of his church organization’s handwritings which are patterned after the “rudiments” of the world….their founding principles (their constitutions, etc). The "tradition of men"= the transmissions of men (their passed-down church handwritings).

Col 2:8-10 KJV
(8) Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition of men, after the rudiments of the world, and not after Christ.
(9) For in him dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead bodily.
(10) And ye are complete in him, which is the head of all principality and power:


Do not be deceived and turn aside and serve other gods (the church handwritings of men’s teachings and commandments) and serve and worship them.

Deu 11:16-18 KJV
(16) Take heed to yourselves, that your heart be not deceived, and ye turn aside, and serve other gods, and worship them;

We shall then perish quickly from off the good land (earth) which He is giving us to rule.

(17) And then the LORD'S wrath be kindled against you, and he shut up the heaven, that there be no rain, and that the land yield not her fruit; and lest ye perish quickly from off the good land which the LORD giveth you.
(18) Therefore shall ye lay up these my words in your heart and in your soul, and bind them for a sign upon your hand, that they may be as frontlets between your eyes
.

The church handwriting of ordinances is the “abomination of desolation” that we are to flee from. It should not be found in our places of worship. There is no “eternal”….age-lasting life in that church as they are all perishing from this earth in His judgment.

Mar 13:14 KJV
(14) But when ye shall see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, standing where it ought not, (let him that readeth understand,) then let them that be in Judaea flee to the mountains:


They will hate you for leaving their churches….but he that shall endure unto the end of this age, the same shall be saved.

Mar 13:13 KJV
(13) And ye shall be hated of all men for my name's sake: but he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved.
