Message 34
"But I certify you, brethren, that the gospel which was preached of me is not after man. For I neither received it of man, neither was I taught it, but by the revelation of Jesus Christ."
(Galatians 1:11-12 KJV)
Flesh and blood cannot bring true salvation, ascending into heaven. But the Son of God descending from heaven. has appeared to His Elect, by His Word and Holy Spirit, washing them in His own Blood, making them kings and priests to the glory of the Father. Full and complete salvation, forgiveness of sins and remission from past transgressions. God is a jealous God, and will not tolerate any other gods before him. The lust of the eyes, the lusts of the flesh, the pride of life, is abomination to God. For God is a Holy Spirit and in Jesus Christ is no sin or corruptible thing. There is therefore no condemnation to the Elect who are in Christ Jesus, for they walk not after the course of the world or the lusts of the flesh. But they walk and have their essence in the Spirit of Life in Christ. They follow not after vanity or pretense of faith. They are not as the hypocrites who cannot cease from sin.
But the Elect, chosen of God before the foundation of the world, God fore-ordained by His loving kindness and tender mercies, that the gospel of Jesus Christ should shine upon the people who sat in darkness and without hope, until Jesus came and destroyed the captor's stronghold and freed the prisoners from the bondage of sin and death. They rejoice at the Light and confess and repent of their sins that were hidden. ONCE I WAS BLIND, BUT NOW I SEE!
