What must we do to be saved? Repent.

If your eye offends you may be struck with blindness as a final warning. The same day Lot left Sodom it rained fire and brimstone from heaven and destroyed them all including women and children. As a warning to all the ungodly who would follow thereafter. 

Now they declare their sin as Sodom and what will they do when Jesus returns? Will there be any faith on earth? Certainly there is no peace. As the wicked blaspheme the name of Jesus - the only name given among men whereby we can be saved from the wrath of God that is to come. Men’s hearts failing them for the fear of judgement. Children disobey their parents with contempt. There is more hope for a fool than a man wise in his own conceit. The tongue is an unruly evil set on the fire of hell. By swearing and committing adultery the land suffers lawlessness. The judge seeks after a bribe, the carnal man covets his neighbors wife, the pastor rules by wealth, the teacher teaches for hire, the prophet prophesies for money, and the people love to have it so. God giving them strong delusion that they may believe a lie and be damned. 

What must we do to be saved? Repent. Believe and obey the gospel of Christ that was once delivered to the saints by the apostles and holy prophets as the Holy Ghost gave them the utterance to speak in new tongues. Being justified by faith we have peace with God, the Holy Spirit being shed abroad in our hearts, we have access to the throne of grace to obtain help in perilous times of need. But a double minded man is unstable in all his ways - let not that man think he will receive a blessing from God. Tribulation, anguish and misery with fiery indignation to every one who obeys not the gospel of Christ.

THE EVIDENCE OF SALVATION IS REMISSION OF SIN

Work out your own salvation with fear and trembling. Examine yourself whether you be in the saving faith of Jesus Christ. Are your sins forgiven? Then they are gone. Sinless in Christ.
The Good news of the gospel is forgiveness of sins and knowledge of salvation is remission of sins.
Now, in this present world, the Holy Ghost teaches every man in Christ to deny ungodliness and worldly lusts. To live sober and holy in this adulterous and perverse generation of vipers.

We know Whom we have believed

We know by the scriptures that every word that proceeds out of the mouth of God is spirit and life. And that no man can come to the Father except through Jesus Christ in whom the fullness of the Godhead dwells bodily. And though Christ was the Son, yet He learned obedience through the things He suffered, the cruel mockings and contradictions of sinners. He resisted sin unto blood and endured the cross, despising the shame, even unto death. That we might be raised up together with Christ unto everlasting life.

Yes, even the devils believe and tremble.

The Word became flesh and dwelled among the people to save them from their sins. That's why they called him JESUS. He was the only begotten Son of the Father in heaven."God sending his only Son", born of a virgin and conceived by the Holy Spirit. What a marvelous and mighty God! Full of loving kindness and tender mercy, that as many as would believe on Him who was sent, should have everlasting life. He was the Light of the world, but men and women hated the Light because their deeds were evil. The Light exposed even their hearts and thoughts. Some came to the Light that they might receive forgiveness and remission of sin. But JESUS was despised and rejected among the religious leaders. His fame was great for the mighty miracles he performed and casting out devils and many who were vexed with unclean spirits. JESUS was accused of blasphemy because he said God was his Father and saying,"before Abraham was, I AM". So the religious leaders conspired how they could kill him, because they were jealous of his anointing and power to heal and cast out devils. Remember Legion? who had 2000 demons? Dwelling in the cemetery, naked and cutting himself with stones. When he saw JESUS a far way off, he ran towards him and fell down and worshipped him. Yes, even the devils believe and tremble.

"a sign that follows them that believe"

"a sign that follows them that believe"

Some of us know that the whole world lies in wickedness.
And others we know, must be saved with fear, 
hating even their garment spotted by the flesh.
Those who convert a sinner from a besetting sin (not unto death) covers a multitude of sins. But the harvest is passed into judgement, beginning in the house of the Lord where the righteous are scarcely saved, and the people are as babes in understanding, not discerning between good and evil.
These are not "babes in Christ", but seasoned sinners, who have always been at enmity against God because they are carnal, and prefer the old wine, "because they say, "the old is better". They profess they know God, but in works they are abominable, and concerning the faith: reprobate. refusing correction and despising the chastening of the Lord.  Although they had tasted of the pure word of God and received the blessing of God's Holy Spirit, they were offended when persecution and temptations arise, testing their faith and found of them fainting because they have no meat. Alas, they have no oil because they are foolish Jesters and mockers. Bastards, not sons.

The word of God is the holy seed. It is incorruptible. To be born again into the Word by the Holy  Spirit is the will of the Father.

 "No man can come to the Father except by Me", Jesus said.

Many are gathered together inside churches by "vain words and fair speeches." 
THEY THAT SEEK AFTER LYING VANITIES FORSAKE THEIR OWN MERCY.
Those inside are unable to come out because of strong delusion. FROM THE LEAST OF THEM TO THE GREATEST, THEY ARE ALL GIVEN OVER TO COVETOUSNESS. The priests rule by their means, the pastors teach for hire, and the prophets divine for money. So, they wrap it up. The best of them is sharper than a thorn hedge. Their words are smooth as butter but their tongues are full of deceit, set on the fire of hell. 
"OUR LIPS ARE OUR OWN. WHO IS LORD OVER US?"

Although the soldier of Jesus Christ may dwell among scorpions, 
"when he takes up a deadly serpent it shall not harm him". 
This is a sign that follows them that believe. In the Name of Jesus.

AWAY WITH HIM! CRUCIFY HIM!
This is the rage of the heathen who gnash with their teeth against the Christ of God and His saints. The reproach of Christ is the cross. Jesus, despising the shame, endured the cross, resisting unto blood the contradiction of sinners,
that the righteousness of the law of God might be fulfilled in us who walk not after the fleshly lusts that war against the soul, but walk after the Spirit and the kingdom and righteousness of God. WALK IN THE SPIRIT AND YOU WILL NOT FULFILL THE LUSTS OF THE FLESH. The Bread of Life is the Word of God. 

The KJV Bible is highly recommended, containing all scriptures inspired by God.

EKKLESIA, message 5

"Let us therefore fear, lest, a promise being left us of entering into his rest, any of you should seem to come short of it." (‭Hebrews‬ ‭4‬:‭1‬ KJV)
The grace that brings salvation has appeared to all men that have sinned and come short of the glory of God, "teaching us", who have been washed by the Blood, to draw close to the throne of grace where we who are new creatures in Christ can obtain help in time of need. Having access by the grace of God, "wherein we stand", if we continue in His word, "building up ourselves" in the faith of Christ, "praying in the Holy Ghost." As we are the temples of God, not by works of men, but by the Holy Spirit, "which dwells in us, unless we are reprobates who hold the truth with unclean hands. God is not mocked. "Those who sow to the flesh shall reap corruption. Break up you fallow ground and sow not among the thorns." Be not as despisers of those that are good, who are born of God are righteous, even has Christ is righteous because of the death and resurrection of the Just One, the Lamb of God whose blood was shed before the foundation of the world, manifest on the cross, The King of glory bearing the sins of us all, was crucified by wicked hands hating the Light and Perfection of Beauty. Sinless Savior. Almighty God! that as many as should believe on His glorious name, which is above all names: The WORD, JESUS, THE CHRIST OF GOD, for the remission of sin, (this is the refreshing, that is, in Jesus Christ there is no sin, but eternal life, peace and joy in the Holy Spirit, wherein we rejoice) in the Comforter and Anointing Who teaches us to deny ourselves and take up our cross and follow Him, as those who are "alive to God, reckoning ourselves dead unto sin and awakened in "newness of life" offering our bodies as living sacrifices unto God, "making no more provisions for the flesh to fulfill the lusts thereof...and not swerving from the faith giving heed to seducing spirits in ungodly men and women, teaching whom they may devour, who war against the saints and precious souls. We must be sober and vigilant. Because our adversary, the devil, goes about through the earth as prince of the power of the air, destroying precious souls through the deceitful lusts of the flesh, the pride of life and lust of the eyes. "All this will I give you, if you worship me". So many have. And many are. Because there are now so many anti-christs, we have no need for teachers of vain traditions and philosophies of cunning men. But the Spirit reveals the things and ways of God to those that are His, "a peculiar people" redeemed from all iniquity. "And you hath he quickened who were dead in trespasses and sins" (Eph. 2:1)
The Spirit of life in Christ Jesus has made me free from the bondage of sin and death", wrote the apostle Paul, who was beaten and imprisoned and "dying daily" for his testimony of "Jesus Christ and Him crucified". "I do not frustrate the grace of God" (by building up again that which was destroyed) "Awake to righteousness, and sin not!"
The pride of life is "earthy, sensual and devilish". The enemy comes in like a flood of ungodliness upon the whole world "which dwells in iniquity". "LOVE NOT THE WORLD, neither the things that are in the world". We are admonished in the Holy scriptures to flee fornication and idolatry, to live soberly (and not to foolishness or jesting), but to love God with all our strength and to hate evil, which is in the corruption of the world through lusts of the flesh without compromise.. "Hold to the One, despise the other". Take heed that no man deceive you.

"THE OLD IS BETTER"



"No man putteth new wine into old bottles; else the new wine will burst the bottles,
and be spilled, and the bottles shall perish. But new wine must be put into new bottles; 
and both are preserved. No man also having drunk old wine straightway desireth new:
for he saith, The old is better."
(‭Luke‬ ‭5‬:‭37-39‬ KJV)

We see in these words of Jesus that the sinner is not naturally inclined to salvation or taste "new wine". The wretchedness of the sinner is only acknowledged when the Holy Spirit convicts the deceitful heart of sin. When the sins are ever before the troubled soul, there is no rest or consolation in the flesh. The pleasure of sin has ceased. "Tribulation and anguish upon every soul that sins".
The grace of God brings godly sorrow to the sinner unto repentance. The convicting work of the Holy Spirit "pricks the heart" and judges the sinner, because of sin. When the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God, reveals the intentions and deceitfulness of the heart to the sinner, he is condemned. The word is manifest through prophesying.
"Have mercy upon me, O God! According to your loving kindness and tender mercy, I pray, Blot out all my sins...create in me a clean heart, O God, and renew a right spirit within me". We only pray to God. Desperately. We know that without God we can do nothing to save ourselves. The testimony of Jesus Christ is the spirit of prophesy and the evidence of His salvation is revealed by His blood "shed for many", for the remission of sins. "He whom the Son sets free is free indeed." Meditate. Memorize the holy scriptures. Make no more provision for the lusts of the flesh. So that you may be taught of The Lord to deny ungodliness and to live sober and righteous and holy in this present world by the Spirit of Christ dwelling inside. "Let the word of God dwell richly in your minds". God be with you and quicken your body in newness of life in Christ Jesus. Amen.
