satan figured out that people feel automatically Saved when they find GOD. so he planted the seed/lie he told Eve ...that you won't die.

the false church worships an image of death to make imputed Righteousness work.
they made The Advocate be a minister of sin. they lift up JESUS' Dead Corpse instead of going through The Passover Door.

they do a new sin and go up to The Cross and rub it on Him and go back and do the same sin.

i'd rather be Righteous from an Image of LIFE and not do the deliberate sin in the first place.


You want a Savior to forgive your news sin ...you don't care about Obeying The LORD at all ...hello, He is a LORD ...not your bellboy for new sins.

Did you know you could end the false church with three Verses? they are founded on CHRIST being a minister of sin after you declare you Believe ...but continue in new deliberate sins.

[Gal 2:17-18 KJV] 17 But if, while we seek to be justified by Christ, we ourselves also are found sinners, is therefore Christ the minister of sin? God forbid. 18 For if I build again the things which I destroyed, I make myself a transgressor.

[2Pe 1:9 KJV] 9 But he that lacketh these things is blind, and cannot see afar off, and hath forgotten that he was purged from his old sins.

extra bonus:
Romans 3:25 KJV — Whom God hath set forth to be a propitiation through faith in his blood, to declare his righteousness for the remission of sins that are past, through the forbearance of God;

Are you presenting yourself as not being sinful sense you have been born again?

Jesus will not live in us unless we allow Him to.
Revelation 3:20
“Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me.”

Coming in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me. 2 Sam 9, To me relates to Rev 3:20, in the fact that we can identify with Mephibosheth, who was poor and crippled in both feet and was allowed to eat at the kings table, in the same manner as ourselves, who are poor and crippled sinners, being able to eat spiritually at Jesus table when we worship together as his bride.

Being able to sup with him depends upon being able to hear his voice, unlike the natural man, who cannot discern the things of the Spirit.

umm ...yeah ...and then we become Reborn ...a New Creation ...you think we still have filthy rags.

curious ...does any of the following Scripture apply to you?


John 8:34
Jesus answered them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Whosoever committeth sin is the servant of sin.

1 John 3:6
No one who abides in him keeps on sinning; no one who keeps on sinning has either seen him or known him.

Hebrews 10:26
For if we sin wilfully after that we have received the knowledge of the truth, there remaineth no more sacrifice for sins,

2 Corinthians 5:15
he died for all so that those who live SHOULD LIVE NO LONGER FOR THEMSELVES, but for him who died for them and was raised up

[1Co 6:19-20 ESV]
Or do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit within you, whom you have from God? YOU ARE NOT YOUR OWN, for you were bought with a price. So glorify God in your body.

1 Peter 2:21
In fact, to this course you were called, because even Christ suffered for you, leaving a model for you to follow his steps closely

John 8:12
Then spake Jesus again unto them, saying, I am the light of the world: he that followeth me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life.

Heb 9:14
How much more shall the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered himself without spot to God, purge your conscience from dead works to serve the living God?

Gal 5:24
And they that are Christ's have crucified the flesh with the affections and lusts.

1Co 10:9
Neither let us tempt Christ, as some of them also tempted, and were destroyed of serpents.

1Co 10:21
Ye cannot drink the cup of the Lord, and the cup of devils: ye cannot be partakers of the Lord's table, and of the table of devils.

James 1:21
Therefore lay aside all filthiness and overflow of wickedness, and receive with meekness the implanted word, which is able to save your souls.

Also, God looks at your sins, as being as far away from him as the east is from the west, as far as your eternal inheritance is concerned, but all scriptures must harmonize before you understand the truth.

What do you think Paul is trying to teach us in Romans 7:25, "I thank God through Jesus Christ our Lord. So then with the mind I myself serve the law of God; but with the flesh the law of sin"?

What is the gospel that says needs to be preached to the ends of the earth so the end can come?
A love letter.

One that provides an easy to read map out of the worldly mindset, once God calls our name. That we then see his light and don't take LORD Satan's world so seriously and selfishly as before.

The Good News, Gospel, also is a roadmap that guides and comforts should we become afraid in our journeys here. It leads us to peace, assurance, confidence and love. Love of God , love for ourselves as his child who lives now in the comfort of his love, the protection of his indwelling holy spirit, and the guarantee when this life is over there is another that awaits.

The Gospel is Life.

Be Blessed. 🙏

“And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature. He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved;

but he that believeth not shall be damned.”
‭‭Mark‬ ‭16:15-16‬ ‭KJV‬‬

You do realise that God scattered the disobedient house of Israel (God's people, the lost sheep) into all the world, and that Jesus instructed his apostles to go and preach to the lost sheep of the house of Israel.

Why do you think JESUS Told us about a broad way?


[Mat 7:13 KJV] Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat:
[Mat 7:14 KJV] Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it.

The wide gate represents born again children that are teaching and preaching false doctrines (the disobedient house of Israel, whom God has blinded their eyes, to the truth, until they repent.

The straight gate represents the remnant of the house of Israel, who have been revealed, by the Holy Spirit, the truths contained in Jesus doctrine.

i'm asking you to show me how/why i'm reading It wrong ...unless you are saying you are afraid to see what i'm pointing at.
...and lol, we still have to spread The Gospel ...relax.
ayes and I have explained to you that’s an old theory I’ve read it talked about it and I don’t agree with it

So why is it my place to try to argue with you about it ? It’s like arguing about how many one plus one is

It’s alright with me if you want to think it in my opinion it’s not worth arguing about or me spending any more time talking About

most want magic bodies in the future to stop their sins ...they will fry if they die in their sins.

Why would JESUS Say This unless it wasn't about physical death? You are supposed to have His LIFE right now causing you to have a Living Conscience that will prevent your second death. You should be choosing what GOD would want you to choose.

[John 8:51 KJV] Verily, verily, I say unto you, If a man keep my saying, he shall never see death.

2 Timothy‬ 1:10‬ KJV‬‬
“But is now made manifest by the appearing of our Saviour Jesus Christ, who hath abolished death, and hath brought life and immortality to light through the gospel:”

John 14:18-19 NKJV — “I will not leave you orphans; I will come to you. “A little while longer and the world will see Me no more, but you will see Me. Because I live, you will live also.

Proverbs 8:32 Now therefore, listen to me, my children,
For blessed are those who keep my ways.
33 Hear instruction and be wise,
And do not disdain it.
34 Blessed is the man who listens to me,
Watching daily at my gates,
Waiting at the posts of my doors.
35 For whoever finds me finds life,
And obtains favor from the Lord;
36 But he who sins against me wrongs his own soul;
All those who hate me love death.”


if you physically die while living in death ...you go to the lake of fire ...the second death. if you think your new sins are covered ...they are not ...you are living in death. CHRIST'S Sacrificial Blood is only Good for yours sins up to you knowing Him!!!

Paul had a good conscience, but his flesh was waring against his spirit ...those of us Adopted don't deal with this today ...i'm not sitting here fighting urges to do something sexual or other flesh sins. i have CHRIST'S LIFE in me.

They had to wait... we don't. Fully Repent for a sin rejecting Image!

[Rom 8:23 KJV] 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.

Paul was Saved with the flesh urges the false church still have ...but they are not Saved ...Adoption is here ...so what is their excuse?

The following isn't a thing for the Adopted. The Son Of Man has Come to Deal with this.

Romans 7:23-24 KJV — But I see another law in my members, warring against the law of my mind, and bringing me into captivity to the law of sin which is in my members. O wretched man that I am! who shall deliver me from the body of this death?
Wasn't Paul under the new covenant?

Yes, do you think the New Covenant is a license to sin? Grace is about stopping your sins ...not excusing them.
Sure. But what Paul was subject to so are we.
Grace is not license to sin. It is release from its penalty and an ongoing release from its power. In glory it will be a release from its presence.
