@@timjones6637 Yes the thief on the cross who died alongside Jesus went to paradise by faith. What one needs to understand is that he was under the Old Covenant. The New Covenant had not yet been established because Jesus Christ had not yet died. The thief on the cross couldn’t get baptized into Jesus Christ’s death because the New Covenant gospel had not yet been established and declared. The apostle Peter preached the New Covenant gospel for the first time in Acts Chapter 2. Baptism in the name of Jesus Christ is how we get baptized into the death of Jesus Christ. If we don’t get baptized then it shows we either don’t have faith in the gospel or we have been deceived by “another gospel” that the apostle Paul warned about. We must be born again and water and Spirit under the New Covenant. The thief on the cross couldn’t experience either because Jesus had not yet died, resurrected, and ascended into heaven. Notice how Jesus commanded the apostles to begin to preach the New Covenant gospel message after they were filled with the Holy Spirit. That happened after Jesus died! Luke 24:46-49 KJVS And said unto them, Thus it is written, and thus it behoved Christ to suffer, and to rise from the dead the third day: [47] And that repentance and remission of sins should be preached in his name among all nations, beginning at Jerusalem. [48] And ye are witnesses of these things. [49] And, behold, I send the promise of my Father upon you: but tarry ye in the city of Jerusalem, until ye be endued with power from on high. Peter then obeys the command of Jesus after he was filled with the Holy Spirit on the day of Pentecost. Acts 2:38 KJVS Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost. Baptism in the name of Jesus Christ under the New Covenant is how we are baptized into the death of Jesus Christ by faith. Baptism is a step of faith! Romans 6:3-4 KJVS Know ye not, that so many of us as were baptized into Jesus Christ were baptized into his death? [4] Therefore we are buried with him by baptism into death: that like as Christ was raised up from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life.

Focus your attention on God and read His Word. Worship and praise Him and get your mind centered on Him. If it was an image that you purposely saw and caused you to sin, then you must repent and look to God for grace to overcome. Don’t allow the enemy to bring guilt, shame, and condemnation.

@@upclosepersonal I mean no disrespect but your comment reveals your ignorance of the Scriptures. Water baptism is in the name of Jesus Christ just like Jesus commanded. Why do you remove water baptism in the name of the Father, Son, and Holy Ghost (Jesus Christ) from the great commission? The New Covenant gospel could not get any clearer than it’s presented by Jesus in the gospel of Matthew, Mark, and Luke. If you say that Jesus is not referring to water baptism in those instances then you are totally deceived. If you say that Jesus is referring to water baptism in those instances then you are ignorant and not rightly dividing the Word when you turn to Acts 2:38 when Peter actually obeys Jesus’ command for the very first time. Baptism in the name of Jesus Christ is 💯 percent referring to water baptism and it is for the remission of sins where the blood of Jesus is applied to our lives in faith. Do you want me to break it down for you? You’re obviously not taking the time to watch the entire series and hear the entire matter, considering the fact that you could be wrong. Allow God to speak to you through His Word. Open your eyes to the clear understanding of Scripture outside of popular tradition. Matthew 28:18-19 KJVS And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth. [19] Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: Mark 16:15-17 KJVS And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature. [16] He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned. [17] And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues; Luke 24:46-49 KJVS And said unto them, Thus it is written, and thus it behoved Christ to suffer, and to rise from the dead the third day: [47] And that repentance and remission of sins should be preached in his name among all nations, beginning at Jerusalem. [48] And ye are witnesses of these things. [49] And, behold, I send the promise of my Father upon you: but tarry ye in the city of Jerusalem, until ye be endued with power from on high. Now guess what? The apostles wait in Jerusalem and the book of Acts picks up after Jesus ascended. What does Peter do after he was filled with the Spirit (power from on high)? He preaches the exact same gospel Jesus told him to preach and baptism in the name of Jesus Christ is water baptism as Jesus commanded. Acts 2:38 KJVS Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost. Couldn’t get any clearer for those who haven’t been blinded by tradition. The truth can set us free if we allow it. I came out of the lies you are believing. I used to also believe one is saved and filled with the Spirit by just professing Jesus as Lord and “asking him into my heart.” Boy was I deceived! Now I’m born again and set free from bondage to sin. God wants to do the same for you but you must believe the gospel as Jesus and the apostles taught.

@@ShatteringFalseFoundations If water baptism was needed, why did the thief on the cross? Not the baptism, to be saved. He just believed it's not would've should've. Could've he didn't. You're the one who doesn't see things for what they are. Baptism, water baptism is water baptism, but thief did not have water baptism. They see the exception. Jesus makes exceptions now. Some can't believe it not be water baptize, and some have to explain the thief on the cross if it's a must water baptism. He was not water baptized. There's no way around the scripture, my friend.

Pull up my video series that I’ve already shared and see that there is a video all about why the thief on the cross didn’t need to be baptized. It’s very simple to understand. The thief didn’t die under the New Covenant. He died under the Old Covenant because Jesus had not yet died and so he couldn’t have been baptized into Jesus’ death like Romans 6 talks about. Romans 6:3-4 KJVS Know ye not, that so many of us as were baptized into Jesus Christ were baptized into his death?

Hey there, glad to hear you tune in to my teachings often! I hope they have been a blessing to you. It's a busy time for me right now so I haven't been able to dedicate any time for more videos but that season will come again in the fall, Lord willing. Here's what we believe: About God: There is One true God in heaven and earth Who has chosen to reveal Himself to His creation. Jesus is that One true God who came, manifest in flesh, to purchase the salvation of all mankind. [John 1:1, 14] About the Bible: The Bible is the inspired and infallible Word of God. We firmly believe that, "All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness:" [2 Timothy 3:16] About Sin: All men are sinners in need of a Savior. The Scripture says, "For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God." [Romans 3:23] Men cannot redeem themselves by their own good works. It took the sacrifice of God's sinless lamb to pay the price for our sin and to give us forgiveness. Christ's blood was freely shed on the cross so that men might be forgiven for their sinful ways. The Bible bears witness to this when it states, "For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord." [Romans 6:23] About Salvation: The Bible is clear concerning the plan of salvation. Jesus said, "Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God." [John 3:5] To obey this men must do the following: Men are to have faith in the death, burial, and resurrection of the Messiah Jesus (understanding his identity as God incarnate); repent by turning from one's sinful life and turning to God believing that He will recreate one into the image of Christ; be baptized by immersion in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins [See Acts 4:12]; receive, without exception, the gift of the Holy Ghost, which is clearly seen in Scripture to have been evidenced by the speaking of other tongues as the Spirit of God gave the utterance. [See Acts 2:38] About Christian Living: A born again believer should strive to live holy, righteously, and soberly. The apostle Peter declares, "But as he which hath called you is holy, so be ye holy in all manner of conversation." [1 Peter 1:15] We are called to live our testimony in word, deed, lifestyle, attitude, and relationships by reaching out to others with the love of Jesus Christ. [See Colossians 3:17] As such, we view all human life as being equally created in God's image and thereby being equally of value. We recognize the marital covenant of a man and a woman as being a God-ordained union, and the family as God's ordained channel for sustaining relationships and faith. About Spiritual Gifts: We believe and have witnessed that God's spiritual gifts are still available to the church today. These would include: The Word of Wisdom; Word of Knowledge; Discerning of Spirits; Gift of Faith; Working of Miracles; Gift of Healing; Gift of Prophecy; Gift of Diverse Tongues; Gift of Interpretation of Tongues. [1 Corinthians 12:8-10] About Prophecy: We believe that many of the prophecies of the Bible were fulfilled by 70 AD. We also believe that there are still some which are yet to be fulfilled. Some of these include Jesus coming again to gather His church and to bring judgment to the rebellious of this world. This will usher in an eternal rest and reward for those who have been faithful to Jesus, and an eternal judgment against the devil, the fallen angels, and disobedient and wicked man [Revelation 21:7-8]. I am a Post-Millennialist so I believe that Jesus is currently reigning from the throne of David right now and will do so UNTIL all enemies are put under His feet. The thousand years of Revelation 20 is symbolic of this church/kingdom age that we are currently in. I have done quite a few videos that can be watched on this subject at the following link (the first 5 especially): kzbin.info/aero/PLo_7oh9llbNbANkmzYC6Ju3-2y2PQ5-2s I believe John Calvin was a mistaken theologian who taught many unbiblical doctrines and didn't understand the gospel of Jesus Christ.

He had many beliefs that I believe were unbiblical but don't feel the need to list. Divorce and remarriage is a huge topic. It would require a lengthy explanation so I will share a link to the best writing that I've read to date on that subject.

Hope it was helpful. God bless you in your continued studies and seeking of the truth. The truth is all that matters in the end. Peace to you.

These are all good questions. We are born spiritually alive and without a sin hardened heart. Just like Adam was in the garden. I believe this is what Paul was referring to in Romans when he said he was alive without the law once. Romans 7:9-10 KJVS For I was alive without the law once: but when the commandment came, sin revived, and I died. [10] And the commandment, which was ordained to life, I found to be unto death. Having a good and upright nature does not mean one is incapable of doing evil just like someone whose nature has been corrupted by sin can still make good choices and do good deeds. Adam was created good and upright, yet capable of making choices that would be sinful. He was innocent until he made a choice to sin and become guilty. All children follow in Adam’s footsteps because they are drawn away of their own lusts and enticed. James 1:13-15 KJVS Let no man say when he is tempted, I am tempted of God: for God cannot be tempted with evil, neither tempteth he any man: [14] But every man is tempted, when he is drawn away of his own lust, and enticed. [15] Then when lust hath conceived, it bringeth forth sin: and sin, when it is finished, bringeth forth death. The union with God (being spiritually alive) is the state in which God forms man in the womb. This state does not take away our free will also given to us by God. It is possible for man to live without sin as Jesus showed us, yet all others choose to sin and come short of the glory of God. Why this happens is not because it is impossible for a child to not sin. A child sins because they choose to sin.

@@ShatteringFalseFoundations Thanks for answering - though, you did not provide a biblical answer why we sin. James 1:13-15 shows how we sin - we are enticed by our lust and once we give in, we sin. Jesus was enticed the same way - yet he did not give in - that’s why he is sinless. What your answer neglects is that we have “lust” and that’s why we give in when we get enticed; hence, we all sin. I agree with you that Adam and Eve for created good - in fact “very good” but not perfect - since they were made in the image of God, they could sin (choose to sin). Once they were deceived, they did sin. Why did they have to be deceived? Why did the Serpent need to take the blame? You are indirectly saying that we all have this “lust” inside us - that would include Adam and Eve. However, we are created “good” - so where does this lust come from in your opinion? It looks like this lust is the culprit of our sins. You are saying we all can “not sin” by our nature (post fall) - yet we all do sin. I’m just trying to make sense of this.

​@@M.R.-for-Jesus When you find the Scripture that point blank states the "why" without requiring any deep study or rightly dividing of the Word, please do share. Many times the intricate details of the "why" are not meant to be fully understood or make sense since many things are spiritually discerned. I personally see the "why" in James 1:13-15 when compared with other passages of Scripture. The "how" is connected with the "why." Why did Lucifer sin? Because he was elevated with pride. He used his will and because of that he and 1/3 of the angels rebelled and fell. But most of the angels chose to not follow after satan. It obviously wasn't something God caused to happen in satan. God didn't place pride within satan and 1/3 of the angels and leave it out of the others. It was something that happened within him and it involved his will. But let me point out some inconsistencies in your response that may help you make better "sense" of this subject. You conclude from James 1:13-15 that it only shows "how" we sin to which you then said, "we are enticed by our lust and once we give in, we sin. Jesus was enticed the same way - yet he did not give in - that's why he is sinless." I agree with this statement! One must recognize with this statement that all men have lust (desire), even Jesus. Jesus was enticed in the same way as us, yet he never sinned. So having lust in and of itself is not sinful. However, your very next statement then contradicts what you just got done saying about lust. You then say, "What your answer neglects is that we have "lust" and that's why we give in when we get enticed; hence, we all sin." There is a fine detail here that needs to be understood. You just got done saying that we are enticed by our "lust" just like Jesus. This means that Jesus had the same "lust" that would have provided him with temptation. So it seems as though you are viewing "lust" as something we can "give into" in one instance, but then in the next instance you are viewing lust as something we "have" as if it's a part of us which causes us to give into it and sin. I don't believe this is the case. Jesus had the same "lust" that all other human beings have. He was tempted in all points as us yet without sin. Referring to Jesus: Hebrews 4:15 KJVS For we have not an high priest which cannot be touched with the feeling of our infirmities; but was in all points tempted like as we are, yet without sin. In order for someone to be able to be tempted in all points as us, they had to have the desire for whatever it was that was offered. We need to understand the biblical definition of what "lust" is referring to so that we don't view "lust" as a purely evil thing that man "has." "Lust" is simply referring to "desire, craving, or longing." We can lust after good things or we can lust after evil things (lust after the spirit or lust after the flesh). Temptation arises when man is faced with a lust (desire) for evil things. When one gives into that desire of evil, that is when sin arises. It all goes back to a choice involving man's will and knowledge of good and evil. One needs to also recognize that without the law, sin is dead. Adam and Eve couldn't sin until they received a law or command. Babies can't sin until they know something. So we can't begin to answer the "why" on this subject without considering what is said regarding the "law." Romans 7:1-12 KJVS Know ye not, brethren, (for I speak to them that know the law,) how that the law hath dominion over a man as long as he liveth? [2] For the woman which hath an husband is bound by the law to her husband so long as he liveth; but if the husband be dead, she is loosed from the law of her husband. [3] So then if, while her husband liveth, she be married to another man, she shall be called an adulteress: but if her husband be dead, she is free from that law; so that she is no adulteress, though she be married to another man. [4] Wherefore, my brethren, ye also are become dead to the law by the body of Christ; that ye should be married to another, even to him who is raised from the dead, that we should bring forth fruit unto God. [5] For when we were in the flesh, the motions of sins, which were by the law, did work in our members to bring forth fruit unto death. [6] But now we are delivered from the law, that being dead wherein we were held; that we should serve in newness of spirit, and not in the oldness of the letter. [7] What shall we say then? Is the law sin? God forbid. Nay, I had not known sin, but by the law: for I had not known lust, except the law had said, Thou shalt not covet. [8] But sin, taking occasion by the commandment, wrought in me all manner of concupiscence. For without the law sin was dead. [9] For I was alive without the law once: but when the commandment came, sin revived, and I died. [10] And the commandment, which was ordained to life, I found to be unto death. [11] For sin, taking occasion by the commandment, deceived me, and by it slew me. [12] Wherefore the law is holy, and the commandment holy, and just, and good. Lust always involves a choice of man's will as we can learn from looking to the Scriptures. Galatians 5:16 KJVS This I say then, Walk in the Spirit, and ye shall not fulfil the lust of the flesh. 2 Peter 1:4 KJVS Whereby are given unto us exceeding great and precious promises: that by these ye might be partakers of the divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust. 1 John 2:15-17 KJVS Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him. [16] For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world. [17] And the world passeth away, and the lust thereof: but he that doeth the will of God abideth for ever. This then brings up another point you made that needs to be corrected by the Scriptures. You asked why Adam and Eve needed to be deceived. However, Adam was not deceived. Eve was deceived but Adam was not deceived. Adam was given a clear command by God and he chose to disobey God. Eve had heard about what God had said through Adam. This is why satan working through the serpent could say "hath God said." Eve only had learned that through Adam while Adam had heard it directly from God and so he was without excuse. I believe there is a difference between deception and temptation. Adam was tempted but he wasn't deceived. He knew very well what he was doing by going against a clear command of God. 1 Timothy 2:13-14 KJVS For Adam was first formed, then Eve. [14] And Adam was not deceived, but the woman being deceived was in the transgression. You then made a statement saying that I am "indirectly saying that we all have this lust inside us - that would include Adam and Eve." Actually that's not what I'm saying. I don't believe lust is something "inside" of us as if it's a substance or force that causes one to behave a certain way. Lust is a desire or longing that one can choose to act upon or not. I believe Adam and Eve were created with a lust for the good things in paradise. But through satan's fall from heaven a dark force arose through his sin that impacted God's perfect creation that goes against the law of God. Once Adam received a clear command from God, satan's forces began working. A baby born into this world mirrors the same with regards to that child being innocent until they come to know good and evil. God's law and the devil are polar opposites. Two different kingdoms. So long story short, we all sin simply because we choose to sin (we choose to give into temptation (lust of the flesh, lust of the eyes, and the pride of life - all things that go against God's law) not because we were created with any force that forces us to sin (to give into temptation) but because we are weak through the mind/flesh. Romans 8:3 KJVS For what the law could not do, in that it was weak through the flesh, God sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh, and for sin, condemned sin in the flesh: The main foundational question on this subject is why did only 1/3 of the angels rebel? All of the others made the right choice. Angels don't have the "flesh" to deal with, yet 1/3 of them fell. If angels without "flesh" can choose to follow one who was lifted up with pride, then how much more so man with flesh and all of it's temptations that have arisen through sin? Awesome subject that would make for a great podcast.

@@ShatteringFalseFoundations Thanks for your lengthy answer. Of note, I don’t believe in your statement that 1/3 of the angels were swept down with Satan prior to Adam and Eve. Looking at Revelation 12, reading it closely in context, war broke out and Satan and his angels were swept down after the male child was caught up - after Jesus’ resurrection. However, this is besides this topic. I agree that Adam was not deceived - this was my humanistic writing. My bad. You say “I don't believe lust is something "inside" of us as if it's a substance or force that causes one to behave a certain way. Lust is a desire or longing that one can choose to act upon or not.” I guess this statement makes no sense to me because a desire is something we have and act upon. How do I choose a desire? I can give in or resist a desire, but do I choose it? I think a have 3 choices on a desire - I can give in, I can resist actively, or I can suppress it. How do I choose a desire or choose not to have a desire? Isn’t a desire an unconscious “force”? I don’t actively choose to have a desire, but I do choose what I do with it. If I make the wrong choice, then I sin. So where is the desire coming from? You say “But through satan's fall from heaven a dark force arose through his sin that impacted God's perfect creation that goes against the law of God. Once Adam received a clear command from God, satan's forces began working.” First of all, God’s creation was NOT perfect - it was very good. If it had been perfect, then no sin would have arisen! Only God is perfect! A created thing cannot be perfect. The Bible says nothing about Satan’s force on Adam and the world before Adam sinned except his deception on Eve. Adam and Eve chose to disobey God’s command. Thereafter, all was spiraling down. Children are innocent - yes - which means they are not guilty! That does not mean they are “very good” as Adam was prior to the fall. You say children “they come to know good and evil.” How? The fruit of the tree of knowledge of good and evil opened Adam and Eve’s eyes? How does this happen to children? I mean “evil” was in this world before Adam and Eve sinned - Satan fell in the heavenly realm but had access to the garden. Satan went against God’s commend by telling Eve the opposite what God said - prior of Eve eating from the fruit. So, could Adam and Eve “not not” sin because they did not have that “knowledge” yet? I don’t think so, they CHOSE to sin. This sin brought death to humans. What is death? I know you separate them into components according to your concepts (Christian concepts). The Bible does not clearly delineate physical and spiritual death. We must extrapolate that through Scripture as you do. You say Adam’s sin brought “spiritual” death but is banishment from the garden brought physical death (cut off from the tree of life). What if his sin brought “physical” death through getting banished and being cut off from the tree of life. Consequently, we are all cut off that tree and experience physical death - which is a consequence of the sin. However, the NT makes it clear, the wages of sin is death while the forgiveness of it brings life. Life vs death, i.e., eternal life vs eternal death (second death per Revelation). That death is eternal separation from God. Yes, when Adam sinned and was banished, he was also separated from the presence of God’s abode on earth. He was guilty of his sin; hence, he was on the track of eternal death (unless he repents). Consequently, Adam’s sin caused contingent eternal death and physical death (contingent because he may repent). Physical death was transferred to all humanity (because we do not have access to the tree of life). However, we are also separated from God because we do not have access to God’s abode (Garden of Eden) - though temporary abodes were given by God (tabernacle, temple, then us as believers when we accept the Gospel - the church and individual Christ-followers are the temple of God - 1 Cor 3:16; 6:19). Unless we repent, we are separated from God (you can call this Spiritual life). Babies etc. are innocent - they do not carry Adam’s guilt, but they are mortal (physical) and separated from God until they repent. However, due to not being guilty they will be made alive through Jesus’ resurrection. We all need Jesus. However, they are not thrown to eternal death because they have not sinned yet and hence, are not guilty. In this scenario, “desire” comes from the “physical death” - “flesh” is tainted. And because we are separated from God, we give in to that lust and sin - we cannot not sin - and we all become sinners. In your scenario all humans die physically but babies or not just innocent (not guilty) - they are also not separated from God or in your terms, “spiritually dead” because that happens after they sin - yet, they have not sinned yet. Hence, they have a capability of not sinning - yet all of them choose to - even though they are spiritually alive? (yes, a Christian is made spiritually alive and yet, chooses to sin) You attribute this to Satan’s force - I think you give Satan too much credit in this regard. Your belief is part of Pelagianism. What you and me share about Adam’s sin is only that it brings physical death onto all humans and Adam’s guilt is not imputed to all humans. Your last paragraph about “why angels sin”, 1/3 as you say - is beyond the scope of this topic now. I have answers but that leads us into the topic of the Deuteronomy 32 worldview. In this regard the Masoretic text is not good enough and you must also incorporate the text of the Dead Sea Scrolls, which pre-dates the Masoretic text and the Septuagint. I leave it at that.

Hey - I want to clarify one thing: my language is direct and sometimes can be perceived as accusative - by no means I want to appear that way. I truly appreciate what you do and your interactions - this is great stuff!

Denominations divide the body. The church is not a denomination or a building. That is a true statement supported by the Word of God. I could argue you are being judgmental and divisive right now by the standards you are using to determine those things. Stop reading things into the facts presented. Consider watching a video about the ekklesia in order to fully understand my heart and intentions in this video. The Word of God is clear that the church is a people called out of darkness into the light of Jesus, not a particular denomination or a building. Most denominations make people think their denomination is “the church.” A Deeper Understanding of the Church: Ekklesia - Acts 7:38; Hebrews 12:23 kzbin.info/www/bejne/nqa9o2Oimc-ch5I

The Church is not a denomination or building, right. We understand l. But denominations and buildings do have and house many who are in and a part of Gods Church. We should love them and not judge them as well. “Welcome people who are weak in faith, but don’t get into an argument over differences of opinion.” ‭‭Romans‬ ‭14‬:‭1‬ ‭GW‬‬

What you say now is actually in agreement with the entire point of this video. Of course born again believers assemble in buildings and could be attending churches that are denominational in nature. If you watch the video I believe I clearly make that statement. The entire point of this video was to get people to not look at the building itself or the name on the building as "the church." No single building or denomination can ever identify as "the church." There's a lot of people in denominational churches who aren't born again and so they aren't part of "the church" even though they think they are "going to church." You seem to have missed this and instead went on to make a judgment that in some odd way agrees with what I've said while declaring I should not judge and that I should love (as if I don't love people caught up in denominationalism). Of course we should love all people, including our enemies. Love them enough to share the truth with them and get them out of a wrong understanding of "the church." We are called to judge righteous judgment. That's what I am doing in this video and I would say that's what you are attempting to do in your statements here to me. So please, enough with using the "don't judge" card out of context. Everyone must make judgments when it comes to right and wrong. God's the Judge of where people will spend eternity, but we are to judge righteously according to the Word of God. If you think all that has been shared in this video is judging unrighteously then I believe it's you that have a misunderstanding of biblical judgment. Proverbs 31:9 KJVS Open thy mouth, judge righteously, and plead the cause of the poor and needy. John 7:24 KJVS Judge not according to the appearance, but judge righteous judgment. People's understanding of "judgment" today is getting so bad that they think preaching the gospel is making an unrighteous judgment. In order for someone to preach the gospel, they need to be able to make a righteous judgment. We can make the judgment that all men have sinned and come short of the glory of God because that's what God's Word says. That would be judging righteously. Everything I have said in this video is making a righteous judgment regarding what the Word of God says about "the church." This video isn't an argument with anyone. People who are weak in the faith will never grow unto maturity if they continue to believe lies. The only way for people to grow is to hear the truth of God's Word spoken. What they do with the truth is up to them. People who take offence to God's Word will have to take it up with Him come judgment day since that's where our judgment ends and the great Judge will judge the world in righteousness. We need to be of the same judgment according to Scripture. This can't happen if the truth isn't spoken. Speaking the truth is one way we can show our love to people. 1 Corinthians 1:10 KJVS Now I beseech you, brethren, by the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that ye all speak the same thing, and that there be no divisions among you; but that ye be perfectly joined together in the same mind and in the same judgment. The church is not a physical earthly building but is one body of believers built up an habitation of God through the Spirit. No one single denomination or building can claim this! Amen? Romans 12:4-5 KJVS For as we have many members in one body, and all members have not the same office: [5] So we, being many, are one body in Christ, and every one members one of another. Ephesians 2:19-22 KJVS Now therefore ye are no more strangers and foreigners, but fellowcitizens with the saints, and of the household of God; [20] And are built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ himself being the chief corner stone; [21] In whom all the building fitly framed together groweth unto an holy temple in the Lord: [22] In whom ye also are builded together for an habitation of God through the Spirit. Actually by not speaking the truth, I would be going against Scripture. Most people today with a denominational mindset do not endure sound doctrine. I'm simply doing what Scripture says to do: Preach the truth (the Word). Titus 1:9 KJVS Holding fast the faithful word as he hath been taught, that he may be able by sound doctrine both to exhort and to convince the gainsayers. 2 Timothy 3:16 KJVS All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: 2 Timothy 4:2-3 KJVS Preach the word; be instant in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all longsuffering and doctrine. [3] For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears;

If you take this video as criticism then you’ve missed the entire point. The true church has nothing to do with denominations or buildings. The true church is a body of born again believers. That’s the point of this video. Why leave a comment that begins with a false statement?

@@ShatteringFalseFoundations I think I’ve done the unforgivable sin….i have wrote down the unforgivable sin even when I knew it was wrong, but it was to help myself (if that makes sense) and then I said that God was evil (even tho he ain’t) multiple times, I wasn’t trying to make fun of God or to commit the unforgivable sin, I was just trying to be funny (I didn’t know what the unforgivable sin was at the time, I knew it existed, but I didn’t know what you had to do to do it, I had a voice in my head telling me not to do it but I still did it anyways, which I regret) and then a few months later I gave my life to Christ and then I woke up with no desire for God….then one day My father said “Let’s go to the Bible Store if you wake up rn” then I said “no they have witchcraft and demonic stuff there”, I was half asleep. Once I realized what I said I got up and repented (I don’t think I meant anything Holy Whenever I said demonic) I want a relationship with God, i want one but whenever i ask God for a sign or a desire for him, I get nothing…

@@ShatteringFalseFoundations ok so, while I was backslidden, I called God evil multiple times, I typed it but I didn’t say it, I was just trying to be funny. I knew what the unforgivable existed, but I didn’t know what it was, and if I did I forgot. Then one day I was half asleep and then my dad said “Wake up and we’ll go to the Bible Store!” And then I said “no! They have dream catchers and demonic stuff there!” (Because we were at vacation). Once I realized what I said, I got up immediately and repented. I was half asleep. I think a voice told me not to do it but I did it anyways..i didn’t wanna get up, because I love sleep…I regret this…….

Did you watch this entire video? If you did you would realize that you never committed the unforgivable sin. It’s probably not even possible today to commit. Someone can’t commit it if they weren’t first born again. You have been deceived into believing you have committed it. You need to recognize and believe that you didn’t commit the unforgivable sin and then understand what you must do to be born again.

Augustine is not who we look too for truth. Augustine believed in many false doctrines. He thought sex was a necessary evil. He thought sin was transferred through the man's sperm. So we shouldn't be looking to Augustine or Calvin for truth because they aren't the source of truth. God's Word is truth according to Scripture. The Scriptures reveal that both Calvin and Augustine didn't even understand the gospel of Jesus Christ. They, as you, believed the lie that repentance and new birth precedes belief. However, the gospel is the power of God unto salvation to all who believe. Because you approach this subject through Calvinistic theology, it causes you to believe that God hasn't given man the ability to choose (that he is born with a bondage of the will) and so God has to choose for man and grant the individual the ability to repent. Personal responsibility of any kind is removed from the biblical gospel according to Calvinism. Their understanding of God's sovereignty is twisted and they believe that Jesus only died for the elect. What they fail to do is allow the Scriptures to reveal how this creates contradictions in God's Word. If God only calls a few and he grants them repentance while not granting that to everyone else, well that makes God a respecter of persons and it goes against the numerous Scriptures that reveal God so loved the world and is not willing that any should perish. The Calvinist can't see this because they are blinded by the false doctrinal system of the TULIP that forces them to arrive at false conclusions. It's important to understand that in order for love to exist it can't be forced. Forced love is not love. God does not force His love on anyone. God's love must be freely received in faith. This all is understood through a biblical understanding of the gospel. The gospel is God's call to salvation to all men! Please consider hearing the entire matter to see why your understanding regarding belief and the new birth does not line up with the rightly divided word of truth. Examining Calvinism kzbin.info/aero/PLo_7oh9llbNbuveNaVxp6cwBpyeOpuylY

Regarding your point #1. I use the phrase “sinful world” in context of the world being full of sinful men. In order for the world to be reproved of sin, the world must be able to be sinful and an understanding of the world can be regarding people. This is why God so loved “the world” that He gave His only begotten son. This is the context of me saying we are born into a sinful world. John 16:7-10 KJVS Nevertheless I tell you the truth; It is expedient for you that I go away: for if I go not away, the Comforter will not come unto you; but if I depart, I will send him unto you. [8] And when he is come, he will reprove the world of sin, and of righteousness, and of judgment: [9] Of sin, because they believe not on me; [10] Of righteousness, because I go to my Father, and ye see me no more;

@@ShatteringFalseFoundations on #1 I understand your hyperbolic use - I do that as well. I only thought I mention it because "sin" and its relation to humanity is the central part of these videos and consequently, for some listeners, this can be confusing. I have not seen an answer to my question #2 - FYI I'm aware of the multiple explanations of Psa 51:5 including the adultery of Jesse with Nizbeth because Jesse has Moabite blood through Ruth which according to Israelite's law constitutes an illegitimate marriage. That said you positively affirm the "wedlock" in the video description but in a reply you put it into question but do not give an affirmative answer. What is your stance?

It's actually not a hyperbolic use of that word. It's a contextual use of that word like we see all throughout the New Testament. Three different Greek words are translated into English as "world" in English and they all refer to different things (land, age, the earth or it's inhabitants). Context determines what is being referred to. Of course the planet earth itself is not sinful. The world (kosmos in the Greek) can refer to the inhabitants of the earth. It's not hyperbolic, it's just understanding that one single word can have different meanings depending on context and in context of what I have presented in this series regarding a "sinful world" it should be clearly understood by anyone who has taken time to actually hear the entire matter and read the Bible themselves. I could paste hundreds of examples, but the world clearly is referring to people. All babies are born into a sinful world! John 17:14 KJVS I have given them thy word; and the world hath hated them, because they are not of the world, even as I am not of the world. Regarding your point #2, I believe if you really took the time to hear and consider all of the details of what I shared in this video and in the responses to the numerous questions regarding David being conceived out of wedlock you would have your question answered. Psalm 51:5 KJVS Behold, I was shapen in iniquity; and in sin did my mother conceive me. The focus was on the fact that David's mother conceived David "in sin." The sin is with regards to David's mother's actions. David's mother was in sin when she conceived David. Now I believe that the Scriptures reveal strong evidence that David was conceived out of wedlock and that's how "in sin" his mother conceived him. I said "may" in a response to someone because it is possible that there was some other sinful deed that David's mother was doing/had done at that time that could be being referenced here. Scriptural evidence points to David being an outcast (illegitimate child) who was looked down upon and hated by his brothers. Here is what I wrote to someone regarding the accusation that I didn't believe David was the son of Jesse. "I never stated or hinted that David's father was not Jesse. The Bible is clear that David is Jesse's son. What Scripture hints at is that something with David's mother was the issue and why he may have been looked down upon or seen as an illegitimate child in everyone's eyes. You may find this article interesting on the subject: bjorkbloggen.com/2012/04/04/king-david-said-in-sin-did-my-mother-conceive-me-but-its-no-support-for-a-sinful-nature-ps-515/ I totally agree that David was Jesse's son and nowhere in this series or on my channel have I denied that or hinted at that. I did hint at David's mother possibly conceiving him out of wedlock as a possible explanation for the sin that was taking place when David was conceived. Looking to the Psalms helps us better understand the situation with David being looked down upon by all his brothers." That is the context of what I said. Hopefully now you can see that I am not saying that David may have been conceived out of wedlock. I am saying that David being conceived out of wedlock may be the sin being referred to on David's mother's part when he was conceived in her womb. But it also could have been some other sin. Whatever sin is being referred to in Psalm 51:5, it doesn't negate the strong evidence pointing to David being conceived out of wedlock who was considered an illegitimate child. The article link in my response to the person wrongfully accusing me has valuable insight. I feel your comment is a little nit-picky without considering how communication works. Do you not believe something strongly found in God's Word and how you feel it's referring to something specific, while also at the same time believing that it also may be referring to something else? I guess what I'm saying is don't you ever speak out of humility even though you are confident you understand things clearly? That's what I did in my communication with that person. In my humble opinion, David was conceived against the law of God and that act of his mother is most likely what Psalm 51:5 is referring to, but it could possibly be referring to some other sinful act of his mother.

@@ShatteringFalseFoundations 1) To settle this: I did not mention that issue to criticize and understand your use of the term - “hyperbolic” as figure of speech - and yes, it is biblical and I did not need you to proof it but I said this because there may be baby-Christians or non-Christians who are seeking watching it and given this is all about Inherited Sin I thought “sinful world” can be confusing to them! That’s all. Please, settle this issue and do not respond to it - it’s not a debate. 2) Thanks for your clarification and the link. It could certainly be an issue with David’s mother as your link explains it well. Did you ever think it could be Jesse as well? Certainly not because he is not the true father - no, Jesse is the father but trouble in his linage? Think about it this way: David’s linage as per 1 Chronicles 2:1-12: Judah and then ongoing: 1 Pharez 2 Hezron 3 Ram 4 Amminadab 5 Nahshon 6 Salma 7 Boaz 8 Obed 9 Jesse 10 David Genesis 38:6-30 tells us Judah’s and Tamar’s story. To make it short - Tamar deceived Judah to have illegitimate intercourse to get her linage going on (Er her husband died). She conceived 2 sons, one was Pharez. Pherez is the first generation after Judah. Per Deuteronomy 23:2 the law says: A bastard shall not enter into the congregation of the LORD; even to his tenth generation shall he not enter into the congregation of the LORD. Well, Pharez was a bastard - and obviously the first generation. “To the 10th generation” if you do not include the 10th then this is up to and including Jesse! In the strict law-abiding Israelites this could be huge and therefore, illegitimate - or in sin I was conceived. As in my last post it could be due to Ruth. As you recall the story about Ruth, the Moabite - Boaz, #7 in the linage of Judah eventually married her. Per Deuteronomy 23:3 "No Ammonite or Moabite may enter the assembly of the LORD. Even to the tenth generation, none of them may enter the assembly of the LORD forever” - of course Ruth converted herself to the Jewish faith but how was she considered by the Israelites? Well - there are many possible reasons!

Good point. The church has always been a congregation of the faithful. The New Testament sheds light on the proper understanding of church (ekklesia) and it is in reference to an assembly/congregation. Moses was in the “church” in the wilderness! This should really help people to understand the true meaning of church being the assembly of the faithful. The people are the church, not the building in which one gathers. An empty building is not the church. The people gathering are the church no matter the location. Acts 7:37-38 KJVS This is that Moses, which said unto the children of Israel, A prophet shall the Lord your God raise up unto you of your brethren, like unto me; him shall ye hear. [38] This is he, that was in the church in the wilderness with the angel which spake to him in the mount Sina, and with our fathers: who received the lively oracles to give unto us:

Once Saved Always Saved Doctrine Refuted kzbin.info/aero/PLo_7oh9llbNaDovHCeSOY-8BL3njmkWg9 2 Peter 2:20-22 KJVS For if after they have escaped the pollutions of the world through the knowledge of the Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, they are again entangled therein, and overcome, the latter end is worse with them than the beginning. [21] For it had been better for them not to have known the way of righteousness, than, after they have known it, to turn from the holy commandment delivered unto them. [22] But it is happened unto them according to the true proverb, The dog is turned to his own vomit again; and the sow that was washed to her wallowing in the mire. Galatians 5:3-4 KJVS For I testify again to every man that is circumcised, that he is a debtor to do the whole law. [4] Christ is become of no effect unto you, whosoever of you are justified by the law; ye are fallen from grace. Hebrews 6:4-15 KJVS For it is impossible for those who were once enlightened, and have tasted of the heavenly gift, and were made partakers of the Holy Ghost, [5] And have tasted the good word of God, and the powers of the world to come, [6] If they shall fall away, to renew them again unto repentance; seeing they crucify to themselves the Son of God afresh, and put him to an open shame. [7] For the earth which drinketh in the rain that cometh oft upon it, and bringeth forth herbs meet for them by whom it is dressed, receiveth blessing from God: [8] But that which beareth thorns and briers is rejected, and is nigh unto cursing; whose end is to be burned. [9] But, beloved, we are persuaded better things of you, and things that accompany salvation, though we thus speak. [10] For God is not unrighteous to forget your work and labour of love, which ye have shewed toward his name, in that ye have ministered to the saints, and do minister. [11] And we desire that every one of you do shew the same diligence to the full assurance of hope unto the end: [12] That ye be not slothful, but followers of them who through faith and patience inherit the promises. [13] For when God made promise to Abraham, because he could swear by no greater, he sware by himself, [14] Saying, Surely blessing I will bless thee, and multiplying I will multiply thee. [15] And so, after he had patiently endured, he obtained the promise. Hebrews 10:37-39 KJVS For yet a little while, and he that shall come will come, and will not tarry. [38] Now the just shall live by faith: but if any man draw back, my soul shall have no pleasure in him. [39] But we are not of them who draw back unto perdition; but of them that believe to the saving of the soul. Romans 11:21-24 KJVS For if God spared not the natural branches, take heed lest he also spare not thee. [22] Behold therefore the goodness and severity of God: on them which fell, severity; but toward thee, goodness, if thou continue in his goodness: otherwise thou also shalt be cut off. [23] And they also, if they abide not still in unbelief, shall be graffed in: for God is able to graff them in again. [24] For if thou wert cut out of the olive tree which is wild by nature, and wert graffed contrary to nature into a good olive tree: how much more shall these, which be the natural branches, be graffed into their own olive tree? John 15:1-6 KJVS I am the true vine, and my Father is the husbandman. [2] Every branch in me that beareth not fruit he taketh away: and every branch that beareth fruit, he purgeth it, that it may bring forth more fruit. [3] Now ye are clean through the word which I have spoken unto you. [4] Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, except it abide in the vine; no more can ye, except ye abide in me. [5] I am the vine, ye are the branches: He that abideth in me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit: for without me ye can do nothing. [6] If a man abide not in me, he is cast forth as a branch, and is withered; and men gather them, and cast them into the fire, and they are burned. Salvation can’t be lost once the resurrection occurs and we receive the end of our faith which is the salvation of our souls. Until then, the salvation we have in and through Jesus Christ can be forfeited by forsaking the right way, falling from grace, living a life of unrepentant sin, or by walking after the flesh (all of this is a choice many make which causes them to no longer be abiding in Jesus). This is why the salvation of our souls is the “end” of “our” faith. Faith is personal and individual. It’s not programmed into us like a computerized robot. 1 Peter 1:9 KJVS Receiving the end of your faith, even the salvation of your souls. 2 Timothy 4:7-8 KJVS I have fought a good fight, I have finished my course, I have kept the faith: [8] Henceforth there is laid up for me a crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous judge, shall give me at that day: and not to me only, but unto all them also that love his appearing. Romans 13:11-14 KJVS And that, knowing the time, that now it is high time to awake out of sleep: for now is our salvation nearer than when we believed. [12] The night is far spent, the day is at hand: let us therefore cast off the works of darkness, and let us put on the armour of light. [13] Let us walk honestly, as in the day; not in rioting and drunkenness, not in chambering and wantonness, not in strife and envying. [14] But put ye on the Lord Jesus Christ, and make not provision for the flesh, to fulfil the lusts thereof. 2 Timothy 2:10 KJVS Therefore I endure all things for the elect's sakes, that they may also obtain the salvation which is in Christ Jesus with eternal glory. Hebrews 2:1-3 KJVS Therefore we ought to give the more earnest heed to the things which we have heard, lest at any time we should let them slip. [2] For if the word spoken by angels was stedfast, and every transgression and disobedience received a just recompence of reward; [3] How shall we escape, if we neglect so great salvation; which at the first began to be spoken by the Lord, and was confirmed unto us by them that heard him;

We will see where John Calvin ends up come judgment day. Your comment reveals an ignorance of the gospel and how it’s the power of God unto salvation to those who believe. I believe what the Bible says regarding my need to continue to abide in Jesus. Jesus is my salvation and I remain abiding in Him by my faith. The Calvinist is so brainwashed by a system of belief that they can’t acknowledge that faith is a freewill decision that involves action. The Calvinist would do well to understand the gospel through a simple analogy. Jesus through his death, burial, and resurrection has provided atonement for the sins of the world. All one needs to do is have the blood of Jesus applied to their lives by answering God’s salvation call of the gospel. Acts 2:38-39 KJVS Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost. [39] For the promise is unto you, and to your children, and to all that are afar off, even as many as the Lord our God shall call. When someone hears the biblical gospel, it is like Jesus throwing a life ring out to someone who is drowning and has no other way that they can be saved from drowning. The drowning person has a choice to make. Trust Jesus and grab the life ring or don’t grab the life ring. Grabbing the life ring does not mean that the drowning person saved themselves. Jesus obviously saved them. But the person does play a part in grabbing the life ring and that is where faith and action comes into play. John Calvin couldn’t understand this simple revelation that’s all throughout Scripture because he approached the Scriptures with false presuppositions. Your comment reveals the same. Faith takes action on our part not to save ourselves but to receive the salvation of the one who saves.

Thank you and peace to you!

Anyone who dies not believing in the incarnation will die in their sins according to Jesus. You must believe that Jesus is I Am. Yahweh is the only I Am. Notice the “he” is in italics. It’s not part of the original text. Jesus was claiming to be I Am as to His very Being. John 8:21-27 KJVS Then said Jesus again unto them, I go my way, and ye shall seek me, and shall die in your sins: whither I go, ye cannot come. [22] Then said the Jews, Will he kill himself? because he saith, Whither I go, ye cannot come. [23] And he said unto them, Ye are from beneath; I am from above: ye are of this world; I am not of this world. [24] I said therefore unto you, that ye shall die in your sins: for if ye believe not that I am he, ye shall die in your sins. [25] Then said they unto him, Who art thou? And Jesus saith unto them, Even the same that I said unto you from the beginning. [26] I have many things to say and to judge of you: but he that sent me is true; and I speak to the world those things which I have heard of him. [27] They understood not that he spake to them of the Father. This is a serious subject that you think you know and understand. I’ve had many discussions with people who believe as you who deny that Jesus is God incarnate and they all ignore clear teachings that Jesus Christ is the express image of the Father’s very Person. God was manifest in the flesh through the incarnation. To say that the Spirit just dwelt in a man called Jesus is to miss the entire point of what it means for God to manifest in the flesh. 2 Corinthians 5 makes it very clear that Jesus is God’s very Person experiencing a genuine human existence. Anyway, you’re already approaching this subject with a made up mind it seems. Just know that this series as a whole totally dismantles the belief that Jesus isn’t God incarnate. He most definitely is God and all knees will bow and tongue confess that Jesus Christ is LORD.

If a child is old enough to lie then they are not innocent. In order to lie one needs to be able to discern right from wrong. A child who lies has sinned and come short of the glory of God. The main point we need to recognize is that they weren’t born that way. Nobody is born having sinned in someone else. That’s a made up doctrine invented by man. God makes man upright and all choose to sin from their youth and come short of the glory of God and are in need of a Saviour.

If a child is old enough to lie and deceive then they are not innocent. The question is whether or not we are born sinful according to Scripture. The Word of God says we are born having done no good or evil and that we are “upright.” But the Scriptures are also very clear that we all sin from our youth and come short of the glory of God. If babies are sinners at birth then it means that all babies would go to hell if they died because they were never able to understand the gospel and respond to it in faith.

Don't assume that I haven't studied the different views on these matters. If you are ok with God breaking His promises, have at it, but if not, I apologize.

You don't need to mention "dispensationalism" for me to discern that you are a dispensationalist. There are really only two major viewpoints regarding this subject. They are known as Dispensationalism and Covenant Theology. There is a third minor viewpoint called British Israelism. Your conclusion on what I shared regarding Jesus Christ and His believers today being the true Israel of God under a New Covenant and how you immediately think that I am saying Israel has been "replaced" is a typical dispensationalist statement. Anyone who adheres to Covenant Theology would understand who True Israel is and always has been and understands that "Israel" hasn't been replaced. The Church is and always has been the True Israel of God, under the Old Covenant and now under the New Covenant (it's always been a people of faith made up of both Jews and Gentiles). The natural olive tree of Israel was never cut down and replaced, nor was a new tree planted. Romans 11 makes it very clear that the natural olive tree is the Church made up of the remnant believing Israelites of the first century (natural branches) and believing Gentiles (wild branches) that have become one new body in Christ Jesus. So a more accurate label to use regarding what I have presented in this video you are commenting on and the entire video series as a whole would be "inclusion theology." Gentiles are grafted into the Israel of God by faith, while all unbelieving natural Israelites have been cut off from the olive tree (true Israel) because of unbelief and the only way they can be grafted back into the olive tree is through faith in the New Covenant gospel. If you took the time to hear the entire series, you would see why the term "replacement theology" is not what we believe who teach that the New Covenant Church is the true Israel of God. If you're not wanting to hear the entire matter, at least watch the following video regarding why that label "replacement theology" is a wrong label to use. Again, only dispensationalists use that label because they don't believe that the New Covenant church made up of both Jew and Gentile in one body is the true Israel of God. The Word of God declares that it is because of Jesus Christ! Replacement Theology: A Misused and Misunderstood Label Regarding the Church Being True Israel kzbin.info/www/bejne/qYLGiIyfg7WMi9U

That’s a great question! Here is a video I’ve done on that very passage to help people understand the context. Let me know your thoughts. If God (Elohim) Is The Father, Then Who Was God Speaking To In Genesis 1:26 & 3:22? "Let us make" kzbin.info/www/bejne/d4usqHuXpN9-irM

And if there really was we in the Genesis Chapter why it says in IsaiaYah, that I was alone when I made the heavens and form the clouds no one was there with me I alone made it He said.

Amen!

Our physical body dies when our spirit (who we are) departs this body. James 2:26 KJVS For as the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without works is dead also. Our spirit can’t die! This is why it’s possible to be absent from the body and yet present with the Lord. 2 Corinthians 5:6,8 KJVS Therefore we are always confident, knowing that, whilst we are at home in the body, we are absent from the Lord: [8] We are confident, I say, and willing rather to be absent from the body, and to be present with the Lord.

Great question! 1 Corinthians 9:23-27 KJVS And this I do for the gospel's sake, that I might be partaker thereof with you. [24] Know ye not that they which run in a race run all, but one receiveth the prize? So run, that ye may obtain. [25] And every man that striveth for the mastery is temperate in all things. Now they do it to obtain a corruptible crown; but we an incorruptible. [26] I therefore so run, not as uncertainly; so fight I, not as one that beateth the air: [27] But I keep under my body, and bring it into subjection: lest that by any means, when I have preached to others, I myself should be a castaway. My initial thoughts on 1 Corinthians 9 without doing an in depth study regarding the specifics of the "incorruptible crown" is that it is speaking of salvation due to the context of that entire chapter and in light of the next chapter and other passages in the New Testament. Verse 23 speaks of Paul serving others for the "gospel's sake" that he might be a "partaker" with the born again believers he was writing in Corinth. The "race" then mentioned in verse 24 speaks of those who seek a temporal/carnal prize for running a race in the natural world and compares that prize to a "corruptible crown" but then contrasts that with the "race" of born again believers who are seeking an "incorruptible crown" and verse 27 helps point us towards the understanding of salvation when we will receive a new glorified body to spend eternity with the Lord because in verse 27 he says "lest... I myself should be a castaway." Castaway in my opinion and for many reasons means more than just losing a reward. It is in reference to being rejected by God when you look at the Greek and how that word is used elsewhere in the New Testament. What Paul writes in Philippians also comes into play and points to the same thing all in reference to the resurrection from the dead. Notice how in Philippians 3:11 he speaks of "attaining unto the resurrection of the dead." He then speaks in the same manner as he does regarding the "race" in 1 Corinthians 9 and he then says in Philippians 3:14 that he "presses towards the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus" and links that in verse 21 with the resurrection when we will receive our new glorified body likened unto Jesus' glorious body. This in my opinion is very strong and clear evidence that Paul is referring to the resurrection/salvation when he speaks of an "incorruptible crown." Philippians 3:10-21 KJVS That I may know him, and the power of his resurrection, and the fellowship of his sufferings, being made conformable unto his death; [11] If by any means I might attain unto the resurrection of the dead. [12] Not as though I had already attained, either were already perfect: but I follow after, if that I may apprehend that for which also I am apprehended of Christ Jesus. [13] Brethren, I count not myself to have apprehended: but this one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forth unto those things which are before, [14] I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus. [15] Let us therefore, as many as be perfect, be thus minded: and if in any thing ye be otherwise minded, God shall reveal even this unto you. [16] Nevertheless, whereto we have already attained, let us walk by the same rule, let us mind the same thing. [17] Brethren, be followers together of me, and mark them which walk so as ye have us for an ensample. [18] (For many walk, of whom I have told you often, and now tell you even weeping, that they are the enemies of the cross of Christ: [19] Whose end is destruction, whose God is their belly, and whose glory is in their shame, who mind earthly things.) [20] For our conversation is in heaven; from whence also we look for the Saviour, the Lord Jesus Christ: [21] Who shall change our vile body, that it may be fashioned like unto his glorious body, according to the working whereby he is able even to subdue all things unto himself. When we keep in mind that there are no chapter divisions in the books of the Bible, then we can read 1 Corinthians 10 in context of what Paul had just written in the end of chapter 9. When we do that, we can clearly see how Paul compares being a "castaway" with God's displeasure with some of the people of Israel back in Moses' day even though they passed through the cloud and the sea. Some fell into sin and were destroyed because they lacked obedient faith. That is why Paul said he needed to keep under his body and bring it into subjection or else he risked not being saved in the end (being a castaway). I don't see any strong textual evidence that he is referring to "heavenly rewards." So when you read chapter 9 into chapter 10 I feel the context becomes abundantly clear. Philippians 3 is saying the same thing as well. Anyway those are my initial thoughts. 1 Corinthians 10:1-13 KJVS Moreover, brethren, I would not that ye should be ignorant, how that all our fathers were under the cloud, and all passed through the sea; [2] And were all baptized unto Moses in the cloud and in the sea; [3] And did all eat the same spiritual meat; [4] And did all drink the same spiritual drink: for they drank of that spiritual Rock that followed them: and that Rock was Christ. [5] But with many of them God was not well pleased: for they were overthrown in the wilderness. [6] Now these things were our examples, to the intent we should not lust after evil things, as they also lusted. [7] Neither be ye idolaters, as were some of them; as it is written, The people sat down to eat and drink, and rose up to play. [8] Neither let us commit fornication, as some of them committed, and fell in one day three and twenty thousand. [9] Neither let us tempt Christ, as some of them also tempted, and were destroyed of serpents. [10] Neither murmur ye, as some of them also murmured, and were destroyed of the destroyer. [11] Now all these things happened unto them for ensamples: and they are written for our admonition, upon whom the ends of the world are come. [12] Wherefore let him that thinketh he standeth take heed lest he fall. [13] There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear it. Hope this was helpful. What are your thoughts on what I've shared?

@@ShatteringFalseFoundations wow, thanks for the reply! I'm definitely not settled yet on this heavy hitter question of whether or not you can lose salvation, but after a lot more study I think this particular passage is talking about rewards, not salvation. Paul describes salvation as a gift all the time, but you don't get a gift for winning a race, you earn a reward. He says that denying his own freedoms while preaching is grounds for boasting, and since that same self-control is what gets him this prize I have to think the prize isn't salvation. We know from what he writes in Ephesians 2 that having salvation is no ground for boasting, and yet here Paul is saying that keeping his body under control is both grounds to boast and earns him a prize. 2 Timothy gave me a lot to think about as well since Paul uses the same race metaphor. in 2 Timothy 2:3-6 we see three examples of people working for a reward including the athlete. But we don't compete like the athlete or work hard like the farmer for salvation, we are given it as a free gift. Then in 2 Timothy 4:7-8, Paul describes the crown as something he will receive at that day, whereas eternal life is something we can have here on Earth. Also the language of God awarding the crown to Paul- salvation isn't awarded for our efforts, it's given out for our faith. That's where I'm at with this particular passage. I have a lot more digging to do on this concept of eternal security and I'm open to going wherever scripture takes me on that answer, but I don't think this particular verse is talking about salvation. Thank you again for the very large reply

Some food for thought that may help settle your heart and mind regarding "once saved always saved" doctrine can be found in my series that this video you are commenting on is a part of. kzbin.info/aero/PLo_7oh9llbNaDovHCeSOY-8BL3njmkWg9 Please correct me if I am misunderstanding you, but you seem to think that "salvation" isn't referred to in the Word of God in any way as a "reward" and that it is only referred to as a "gift." But can't a gift also be a reward depending on the circumstances? I can gift someone something because they simply did something I admired and respected or because they chose to listen to something I told them to do. Someone doesn't have to work for and earn a gift that is rewarded to someone for making good choices and believing a certain way. A free gift can simply be received as a reward for one's faith without having earned anything by one's own merit. Do you not believe that man has any part in receiving salvation (thus showing they have faith)? Do you not believe that true biblical faith is active? Do you not believe that man has free will? If you believe that man has free will and salvation needs to be received through faith, then one must acknowledge that man plays a part in salvation. Man obviously isn't the one who earns salvation since Jesus Christ alone earned salvation for every man. But man is responsible to walk in obedient faith to God's gospel call in order to receive the salvation offered to all by the one who earned it (Jesus Christ). Is it possible your thoughts regarding a difference between a "gift" and a "reward" in reference to salvation is based upon the presupposition that one can't fall from grace and lose what they once had? John 4:34-38 KJVS Jesus saith unto them, My meat is to do the will of him that sent me, and to finish his work. [35] Say not ye, There are yet four months, and then cometh harvest? behold, I say unto you, Lift up your eyes, and look on the fields; for they are white already to harvest. [36] And he that reapeth receiveth wages, and gathereth fruit unto life eternal: that both he that soweth and he that reapeth may rejoice together. [37] And herein is that saying true, One soweth, and another reapeth. [38] I sent you to reap that whereon ye bestowed no labour: other men laboured, and ye are entered into their labours. 2 Peter 2:14-15 KJVS Having eyes full of adultery, and that cannot cease from sin; beguiling unstable souls: an heart they have exercised with covetous practices; cursed children: [15] Which have forsaken the right way, and are gone astray, following the way of Balaam the son of Bosor, who loved the wages of unrighteousness; The Greek word for "wages" as in the passages above is translated as "reward" 23 times in the New Testament as in the following Scriptures: 1 Timothy 5:17-18 KJVS Let the elders that rule well be counted worthy of double honour, especially they who labour in the word and doctrine. [18] For the scripture saith, Thou shalt not muzzle the ox that treadeth out the corn. And, The labourer is worthy of his reward. Colossians 3:23-24 KJVS And whatsoever ye do, do it heartily, as to the Lord, and not unto men; [24] Knowing that of the Lord ye shall receive the reward of the inheritance: for ye serve the Lord Christ. So the "inheritance" is likened unto a reward according to Scripture. The Holy Spirit is the earnest (down payment) of our inheritance (reward). Our "inheritance" here is referring to our new bodies that we will receive at the resurrection (the redemption/salvation of the purchased possession) wherein we will spend eternity with the Lord on a new earth. Redemption is referring to salvation in full at the resurrection (spirit, soul, and body). Salvation is often referred to as a past event, a present reality, and also something we will receive in the future. This is because man is spirit, soul, and body. When we are born again, that which is born of the Spirit is spirit. The resurrection of our bodies is the salvation we are all attaining too even though we have been saved from bondage to sin when we are born again and have been given new hearts. But according to Scripture we must actually work out our salvation with fear and trembling (Philippians 2:12). This working/striving is something that we do by the Spirit. It's not forced upon us, but it's something that involves our will. Man plays a part as we will see below. Ephesians 1:13-14 KJVS In whom ye also trusted, after that ye heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation: in whom also after that ye believed, ye were sealed with that holy Spirit of promise, [14] Which is the earnest of our inheritance until the redemption of the purchased possession, unto the praise of his glory. Romans 8:22-23 KJVS For we know that the whole creation groaneth and travaileth in pain together until now. [23] And not only they, but ourselves also, which have the firstfruits of the Spirit, even we ourselves groan within ourselves, waiting for the adoption, to wit, the redemption of our body. Ephesians 4:30 KJVS And grieve not the holy Spirit of God, whereby ye are sealed unto the day of redemption. 1 Peter 1:3-4 KJVS Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, which according to his abundant mercy hath begotten us again unto a lively hope by the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, [4] To an inheritance incorruptible, and undefiled, and that fadeth not away, reserved in heaven for you, Philippians 3:10-12 KJVS That I may know him, and the power of his resurrection, and the fellowship of his sufferings, being made conformable unto his death; [11] If by any means I might attain unto the resurrection of the dead. [12] Not as though I had already attained, either were already perfect: but I follow after, if that I may apprehend that for which also I am apprehended of Christ Jesus. The reward of the inheritance is reserved in heaven for those who depend on the works of Jesus for salvation and walk/run the race by living a life of abiding in Him by faith. Colossians 3:23-24 clearly calls this inheritance a "reward" (from the same Greek word translated as wages). We glory and boast in the Lord for all that He has done and depend on His grace whereby we can be victorious in this race set before us. But we must run the race set before us by faith in order to receive the end of our faith, the salvation of our souls. We have nothing to glory in because it's God's grace that enables us to run and live victoriously. But we must receive that grace and walk in that grace. By doing that, we will receive our reward at the resurrection. 1 Peter 1:9 KJVS Receiving the end of your faith, even the salvation of your souls. Notice how in the passage below that the apostle Paul laboured by striving according to Christ's working in Him. This I feel is key to understanding the race and the reward. After one is born again, one can either walk after the flesh or walk after the Spirit. Walking after the Spirit is not forced upon us. We must exert faith. But just because there is effort on our part does not mean that we can glory in ourselves or that we are the ones responsible for saving ourselves. Jesus is the Saviour and it's Him alone who earned salvation for us. All we need to do is receive it and walk after the Spirit (strive according to His working in us). When we walk after the Spirit, we are striving or labouring according to His working in us. We are allowing God to empower us. If we don't receive God's gift and allow God to work in us, then we will receive the wages of sin which is death. The free gift of righteousness is given to those who exert faith and choose to walk after the Spirit and not after the flesh and the reward of our inheritance will be received at the resurrection. Colossians 1:27-29 KJVS To whom God would make known what is the riches of the glory of this mystery among the Gentiles; which is Christ in you, the hope of glory: [28] Whom we preach, warning every man, and teaching every man in all wisdom; that we may present every man perfect in Christ Jesus: [29] Whereunto I also labour, striving according to his working, which worketh in me mightily. Much more could be said in response to what you wrote, but I don't feel your interpretation of the crown in 1 Corinthians 9 actually contextually flows with what is then stated in chapter 10. Chapter 10 is not a different thought. Chapter 9 flows into chapter 10. Paul also uses the term "castaway" regarding what would happen if he didn't keep his body under subjection. This word in the Greek is in reference to reprobates (those who are rejected not by other men but by God). Chapter 10 reveals that God is the subject with regards to being rejected for not keeping his body in subjection as we can see below. 1 Corinthians 10:1-7 KJVS Moreover, brethren, I would not that ye should be ignorant, how that all our fathers were under the cloud, and all passed through the sea; [2] And were all baptized unto Moses in the cloud and in the sea; [3] And did all eat the same spiritual meat; [4] And did all drink the same spiritual drink: for they drank of that spiritual Rock that followed them: and that Rock was Christ. [5] But with many of them God was not well pleased: for they were overthrown in the wilderness. [6] Now these things were our examples, to the intent we should not lust after evil things, as they also lusted. [7] Neither be ye idolaters, as were some of them; as it is written, The people sat down to eat and drink, and rose up to play. Anyway, those are my initial thoughts. God bless you in your continued studies!

A few more thoughts came to me regarding the crown. Other Scriptures help shed more light regarding the crown being associated with righteousness and life. 2 Timothy 4:6-8 KJVS For I am now ready to be offered, and the time of my departure is at hand. [7] I have fought a good fight, I have finished my course, I have kept the faith: [8] Henceforth there is laid up for me a crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous judge, shall give me at that day: and not to me only, but unto all them also that love his appearing. James 1:12,16 KJVS Blessed is the man that endureth temptation: for when he is tried, he shall receive the crown of life, which the Lord hath promised to them that love him. [16] Do not err, my beloved brethren. 1 Peter 5:4 KJVS And when the chief Shepherd shall appear, ye shall receive a crown of glory that fadeth not away. Revelation 2:10-11 KJVS Fear none of those things which thou shalt suffer: behold, the devil shall cast some of you into prison, that ye may be tried; and ye shall have tribulation ten days: be thou faithful unto death, and I will give thee a crown of life. [11] He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches; He that overcometh shall not be hurt of the second death. Being given a crown of life is to not be hurt of the second death. In other words it’s to attain to the resurrection of the dead unto eternal life.

@@ShatteringFalseFoundations Thanks for the reply. This has been one of the most respectful and productive exchanges I've ever had in a KZbin comments section! To your first message, I could see the "free gift" of salvation being the same thing as a "reward/prize" for having faith. But that's not the kind of prize Paul is describing here. He's attaining this prize because of the way he preaches without pay, denies himself freedoms, and ignores worldly pursuits. Those are all examples of good works in his ministry life earning him a prize, not the faith he has. To your second point, a true biblical faith should absolutely be active. As James points out, the kind of faith that doesn't produce good works is dead and won't save you. But it's not the good works that get you saved, it's the faith that produced them. We also have free will and have to responding to God's call to take up our cross and follow him. That being said, everybody stumbles, and I think what Paul is getting at is that if he were to really stumble then he's not getting a prize for living a righteous life. That's also what he means when he tells the Philippians to "work out our salvation with fear and trembling", we're supposed to get salvation through faith and then figure out what that faith means for how we act. I'd agree with your statement that we have to receive grace and then walk in that grace. The bar for entry into heaven is perfection though- walking in that grace perfectly. So when Paul says he's run the race well and earned the prize for how well he has lived, certainly not well enough to earn him heaven! But he ran well enough that God recognizes his righteous actions and is going to reward him for that. The 1 Corinthians 10 bit I think is pretty interesting to look at. Paul immediately transitions from describing how he lives correctly to making sure the Corinthians remember that just because they have Christ doesn't mean they should go on sinning. The reference to God's chosen people (under the cloud, passing through the sea) dying in the wilderness after they sinned is pretty striking. These people were drinking from the Rock that followed them, just like the Corinthians are now drinking from Christ. But there's one big difference, the fathers referred to here were in the Old Covenant. Their system of works and sacrifices to be right with God was totally different than the New Covenant the Corinthians are under. We should still of course abstain from the sins discussed in chapter 10, but doing that no longer makes us right with God. God declares us righteous as a result of our faith. Basically, I think it's fine for Paul to remind people to live correctly without that making salvation dependent on it. For anyone else reading this and wanting a summary, here's the TL,DR of why I think 1 Cor 9:27 isn't salvation: -I don't think Paul would mix metaphors of salvation being a free gift received by faith and also a prize we earn for living a good life. -Paul claims his ministry work (for which he receives the prize) is grounds for boasting, and since Paul is clear salvation is no grounds for boasting, this prize cannot be salvation. -Eternal life is something we can have right now, but this prize is awarded later, "on that day".

All sin is forgivable. Depend on and turn to Jesus for grace in that area. Have you been filled with the Holy Spirit and spoken in a language you have never learned?

@@ShatteringFalseFoundations I believe if we truly repent there's no turning back to the same sin. But I feel I've never truly and genuinely asked for deliverance from that sin even after being saved. I've felt it's wrong each time I did it. something inside me was tempting me to do even more. I was baptized in the name of lord Jesus Christ. After that I accidentally fell into Satan's trap and committed that sin. I got completely helpless and in a quick of a moment I started to pray and ask for forgiveness after I committed that sin, I got guilty of committing that sin and asked myself why did I do it even after getting baptized. Last day during Church service, I repented and cried again and suddenly there was something trembling inside my stomach and chest. Some sort of feeling of vomiting. I don't know if there's some sort of curse of something that was given to me in food before I got saved. But today, I feel I got completely relieved from that sin. I'm learning to control my thoughts of flesh by the help of God from now on. And not fall into temptations of satan. Amen

I have a question too. Can a repented believer truly committ willful sin. Is every sin willful sin. And I wanna ask if every sin is willful sin to some extent, why do we fall into sin even though we are saved and baptized. Does that mean we fell into thoughts and feelings of flesh or temptations caused by the satan? I hope you'll answer my questions. Praise God!

Praise the Lord that you were baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ! That's awesome that you are learning how to control your thoughts by taking every thought captive and bringing them into subjection and obedience to Jesus Christ. 2 Corinthians 10:4-5 KJVS (For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strong holds;) [5] Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ; Fleshly lusts and thoughts can be planted by the enemy. A thought in and of itself is not necessarily a sin. It becomes a sin when we act out on that thought or give room for that thought to reproduce in our mind to the point of lust. The enemy will often try to destroy us by thoughts and make us think that by a thought entering our mind that we have sinned. This is why we need to be able to speak the Word of God and take every thought captive. True repentance is a change of heart and mind and a turning to Jesus to save us from sin and empower us to live a godly life by the Spirit. After we are born again we can then choose to walk after the Spirit or the flesh. When we walk after the flesh we sin. When we walk after the Spirit we are more than conquerers through God's amazing grace (divine empowerment). Keep on trusting in and looking to Jesus who will give you grace for help in time of need (temptation). Go boldly before God's throne to receive help in time of need because of the blood of Jesus alone, not because of your own good works or lack of good works. Go boldly because of Jesus! Hebrews 4:14-16 KJVS Seeing then that we have a great high priest, that is passed into the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold fast our profession. [15] For we have not an high priest which cannot be touched with the feeling of our infirmities; but was in all points tempted like as we are, yet without sin. [16] Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need. This video of mine may be of help to you in learning how to apply this understanding for victory over sin in your own life. Let me know how it helps. kzbin.info/www/bejne/j6LZeHient2Lp80 Not every sin is wilful. There are many sins that we do ignorantly. Even the apostle Paul talks about how he did many sinful things ignorantly. I do believe that a repentant believer can commit wilful sin, but I don't believe it would be the "sin wilfully" that Hebrews 6 is referring to. Most sins are committed with the person knowing they are wrong. Wilful sin can be forgiven, but ultimately one' heart needs to be submitted to Jesus and look to Him and depend on Him for victory like you are doing. We can't be of the mindset that we can keep on sinning and we will be forgiven. We must turn from our sin and look to Jesus for victory and growth unto full maturity in Christ. The Bible speaks of Jesus being our advocate (intercessor/comforter) even after we are born again who we can turn to "if we do sin." This is good news! But we need to truly repent and get the victory over our sin through Jesus Christ. Jesus died to save us from our sins. He didn't die to save us in our sins. God bless you in your walk with Jesus and your continued studies of the Word. 1 John 2:1 KJVS My little children, these things write I unto you, that ye sin not. And if any man sin, we have an advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous: Do the believers you fellowship with believe in the gifts of the Spirit? Do you speak in tongues? I never got an answer from you when I asked you previously. It's important that we are filled with the Holy Spirit and don't just think or assume we have been. The only way we can truly walk after the Spirit is if we have been filled with the Holy Spirit.

@@ShatteringFalseFoundations yes Pr I do speak in tongues. I'm a saved and born again individual and do fellowship with a Pentecostal community in Kerala, India. Thank you pastor for writing so much for me. It has been pretty helpful in leading forward my spiritual journey. I'm learning to control my thoughts of flesh through the help of lord and saviour.

@@ShatteringFalseFoundations Thanks

Once one understands the context of the Lord's "coming" in judgment upon apostate Jerusalem in 70 AD and all that fulfilled, one can then see things more clearly. The one singular New Covenant gospel was to go to the Jew first and then that same gospel was to be opened up to the Gentiles. The gospel was first preached on the day of Pentecost as we read in Acts 2. The gospel was preached to Jews only for 3.5 years after Pentecost, thus fulfilling Daniel's 70th week. Jesus was crucified in the middle of the 70th week of Daniel and for 3.5 years the gospel went to Jews only in order for that last week to be fulfilled. In Acts 8, we see the people of Samaria hear the gospel and in Acts 10 we see the first Gentiles hear the gospel and be born again. Just because Jerusalem and it's temple were destroyed in 70 AD, does not mean the New Covenant ended. That event proved that the Old Covenant had ended and had totally vanished away as the apostle Paul wrote in Hebrews. It also proved that Jesus Christ was ruling from His throne in heaven (Jerusalem being surrounded by armies was the sign that the Son of man was ruling from His throne in heaven as King of kings). Hebrews 8:7-13 KJVS For if that first covenant had been faultless, then should no place have been sought for the second. [8] For finding fault with them, he saith, Behold, the days come, saith the Lord, when I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel and with the house of Judah: [9] Not according to the covenant that I made with their fathers in the day when I took them by the hand to lead them out of the land of Egypt; because they continued not in my covenant, and I regarded them not, saith the Lord. [10] For this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days, saith the Lord; I will put my laws into their mind, and write them in their hearts: and I will be to them a God, and they shall be to me a people: [11] And they shall not teach every man his neighbour, and every man his brother, saying, Know the Lord: for all shall know me, from the least to the greatest. [12] For I will be merciful to their unrighteousness, and their sins and their iniquities will I remember no more. [13] In that he saith, A new covenant, he hath made the first old. Now that which decayeth and waxeth old is ready to vanish away. Luke 21:20-22 KJVS And when ye shall see Jerusalem compassed with armies, then know that the desolation thereof is nigh. [21] Then let them which are in Judaea flee to the mountains; and let them which are in the midst of it depart out; and let not them that are in the countries enter thereinto. [22] For these be the days of vengeance, that all things which are written may be fulfilled. The gospel that Peter preached on the day of Pentecost in Acts 2:38 is the only gospel under the New Covenant that exists for both Jew and Gentile who must obey it by faith in order to be born again and become part of the body of Christ - the church. In Luke 24:46-49, Jesus gave the apostles a command to begin to preach the gospel after they were endued with power from on high (filled with the Holy Ghost). Jesus then ascended into heaven and 10 days later, the apostles had obeyed Jesus' commands and they were waiting in Jerusalem until they were all filled with the Holy Spirit and began speaking in other tongues. Peter then stands up and preaches repentance and remission of sins in the name of Jesus Christ just like Jesus had commanded. In Acts 2:38 we see Peter telling the Jews what they needed to do in order to be saved. He told them to repent and be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins and to receive the gift of the Holy Ghost. Those that gladly received his word were baptized. They obeyed the gospel by faith and were born again under the New Covenant. This same gospel message was to be preached to all nations, including Gentile nations, but God wanted it to go to the Jew first. The apostle Paul began preaching the gospel to Jews but after most of them rejected the gospel, he then turned to the Gentiles to preach the same gospel (Acts 13:46-47). The same gospel was preached all through the book of Acts. The people of Samaria were born again by obeying the same gospel, the Gentiles in Acts 10 were born again by believing the same gospel. There is only 1 gospel under the New Covenant whereby we all must be saved. It's extreme error to teach that we are in a Gentile church age and that there are two different gospels today (one for the Jews and one for the Gentiles). Ephesians sheds powerful light on this subject by getting us to see that through faith in the gospel both Jews and Gentiles become one body in Jesus Christ and make up the church. The church is the one singular body of Christ and it is made up of both Jew and Gentile of faith. Nothing could get any clearer than what Paul opens up on these truths in Ephesians. Don't let anyone deceive you into believing that God is working or will work in a different way with the Jews for salvation than he does with Gentiles. There is only one gospel that must be preached to both Jew and Gentile and they both must obey that gospel through faith in order to be born again and become a member of the body of Christ.

I'm so glad to hear my videos have been a blessing to you! Thanks for commenting as it's encouraging to hear from other brothers and sisters who actually know and understand the truth.

I found one of your videos which answers my biblical perspective perfectly. Christ is our Sabbath rest and He fulfilled the Law, nailing it to His cross! Hallelujah, isn’t our God amazing? Pray, seek, ask and ye shall be given! 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻

I'm glad to hear this video was helpful in your studies of this subject and that it helped clear up some confusion. Thanks for sharing!

Peace to you!

Praise the Lord and all glory to God! Thanks for taking the time to comment. It's encouraging to hear from others who know and understand the truth about the true Israel of God. Such an extremely important subject to know and understand with everything taking place today. One of the quickest ways to get rejected or totally shunned by the religious community today is to believe that all people of faith in the gospel of Jesus Christ are the true Israel of God. The doctrine of dispensationalism has blinded the minds of countless millions and gotten them to believe that God is a racist respecter of persons. They believe that unconverted natural Jews are God's chosen people and that the church is just a concubine. A very blasphemous and demonic doctrine at it's very core. Sadly many people think that if they send money to the antichrist state of Israel that they will be blessed. However, they are missing the context of the Scriptures regarding who true Israel is and always has been (a people of faith). They don't realize that by supporting that antichrist state and "blessing" them with money or praying for their blessing that they are partaking of their evil deeds. This is why you see so much sin and corruption in these religious institutional churches and why Israel is a godless nation who hates Jesus. God has no part in it. 2 John 1:9-11 KJVS Whosoever transgresseth, and abideth not in the doctrine of Christ, hath not God. He that abideth in the doctrine of Christ, he hath both the Father and the Son. [10] If there come any unto you, and bring not this doctrine, receive him not into your house, neither bid him God speed: [11] For he that biddeth him God speed is partaker of his evil deeds. God bless you in your continued studies and seeking of the truth! What we understand on this subject may be the minority view, but it's contained in the Scriptures when they're rightly divided if one has eyes to see and ears to hear. Peace to you!

@@ShatteringFalseFoundations you know, I’m very surprised that your comment made it to me. Every time I post a comment about the antichrist nation, attempting to tell people to stop sending money there, it’s immediately deleted. Anyway, bless you and yours brother 🙌❤️🙌

I know what you mean and I can relate. I've experienced the same thing with some of my comments and with others who have tried commenting on my channel. Praise the Lord that this one got through! Freedom of speech is becoming a thing of the past. I've also had people tell me that their likes on my videos would not get processed. I know the enemy is out to steal, kill, and destroy and channel's like mine will be targeted. KZbin's algorithms with regards to my channel have been all messed up ever since I did my true Israel of God series. But God still leads people to my channel and those who are truly seeking will find. All glory to God!

Yes that is correct. It's important to note that there is nothing in God's Word that speaks of man having a "sinful nature." Many people use the term haphazardly and don't really consider what it means. It is not man's nature to be sinful. Man is created in God's image, but man uses his free will to make choices. All men choose to sin and this is how all have sinned and come short of the glory of God. We are born into this world having no knowledge of good and evil and having done no good or evil. We choose to sin once we arrive at an age where we know to refuse the evil and choose the good and we end up choosing the evil (sinning). One sin places us in bondage to sin and we become servants of sin. In order to be freed from bondage to sin we must be born again of the water and the Spirit. We must put on the new man, Jesus Christ by obedient faith in the gospel. We become righteous through Jesus Christ as He grants us His righteousness by faith. So after we are born again we are by nature righteous only because of Jesus. But having a righteous nature does not mean it's impossible to sin. The term "nature" should be understood in this context. Hope this was helpful and that you are enjoying and being blessed by the series.

@@ShatteringFalseFoundations oh okay so we don’t have a sinful nature we just have the flesh

@MatthewMencias Correct. The flesh is not sinful in and of itself but it does have the potential to commit acts of sin. Jesus came in the flesh. The only difference is that Jesus lived a sinless life and all other men have sinned from their youth (from a young age).

@@ShatteringFalseFoundations yeah I learned that people become sinners from their youth which is “early life”

@@ShatteringFalseFoundations so if we called our flesh sinful we would be calling Jesus sinful because he also came in the flesh

Exactly!

God bless you in your continued studies and seeking of the truth.

@@ShatteringFalseFoundationswhat is the sinful nature?

@@ShatteringFalseFoundationsI know that the calvinists believe in original sin I think it’s called total depravity but how do I refute this doctrine can you show me how to disprove it

If you watch the video series from the beginning and make notes of key passages of Scripture along the way, you will have a good foundation for disproving total hereditary depravity. It’s a deep subject. You must also be able to discuss the Scriptures they use as proof texts. I cover most of them in my series. Let me know what you think.
