In Paul’s defense of the way salvation, as recorded in the Word of God, there is just one Gospel, in the O.T. and the N. T.

Friends who live in error have a pull on your life. And that pull will be based on false assumptions, false Ideas, and false teaching. What you do in your body does matter in the life of a Christian. Your body is the temple where the Spirit of God is pleased to dwell; and it is the purchased possession of Christ to whom it belongs. What you do with your body affects the whole personality.

Cornelius was a Gentile and at this time, it was only a Jewish Church. And it is through Cornelius that the Gentiles were brought into the Church.

In these days, so many live under a cloud of uncertainty. I say under false ideas, false assumptions, because we have been given over to false teaching. The false is in contrast to what is true. We have certainty in the Word of God, in the Good news of the Gospel, which includes the Second Coming. If it were just a fable, a myth it would offer no hope, no motivation. But we know from the Mount of Transfiguration and the Word of God it is not a fable or myth, Jesus is coming again.

It takes the Word and the Spirit to have the truth. So much of what we have today is opinions, that are borne from false teachers, false Ideas , and false assumptions.

So today, I pray the LORD will search our hearts, and that we come to a honoring of His Word in our life.

To have Him indwelling you, And then to know the things about Him through His Word is to be prepared for your daily life, for the Day of the Lord, the Rapture, the tribulation, for the setting up of His Kingdom, 2Peter 1:19 "We have also a more sure word of prophecy; whereunto ye do well that ye take heed, as unto a light that shineth in a dark place, until the day dawn, and the day star arise in your hearts:'.

He Comes back to the World He created. He comes back to the world that rejected Him. He comes back to the world for whom He died. He comes back as He promised, John 14:1-3, the Rapture. He comes back to set up His Kingdom here on earth, Act_1:6 When they therefore were come together, they asked of him, saying, Lord, wilt thou at this time restore again the kingdom to Israel? Acts 1:7-11, and approximately two thousand years have passed since His ascension and we know from bible prophecy that the Rapture and the Tribulation must first come. And we believe from the prophetic signs that it draws near. Are you ready to meet the LORD?

So many things converging all at once! So important for you stay attached to the Word of God, in order to see things as they really are. Reality is to see “the world or the state of things as they actually exist, as opposed to an idealistic or notional.” The face of something is not always the substance of what is projected. Some things exist only in theory or imagination. The end times are coming, and they are here by our LORD’s decree. He is the Creator and the Redeemer. He is before all things and by Him all things consist. Col. 1:10-19

The Prophecy of the Rapture is in His ascension, but It was not revealed to the disciples. Pentecost was after the ascension, and it was in the ministry of Paul that the rapture became known. The disciples were asking about the kingdom, they did not know about the church age. We live some two thousand years after the Cross, and have the benefit of the written word of God, and the indwelling Spirit of God.

The heart of man must be prepared to know the LORD’s. Man’s mind, in his natural state cannot know the LORD.

Everlasting Life and Eternal life convey to us something that is forever. John 3:16 tells us, “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.” In the context of John chapter 3, the way God loved us is that Jesus was lifted up on the cross, Joh 3:14 And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of man be lifted up:

It is important that we face and embrace the time, in which we are living. We very well may be the last generation of the church age, and will see the Rapture.

And the reason to watch is because we know not the day nor the hour.

This agenda is wicked, and it is couched in glowing platitudes of wicked people, John 8:44, Ye are of your father the devil,
and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. W
hen he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it.

What will the believer face in the coming days? The Bible tells there will be perilous times. There is the coming tribulation with suffering like there has never been by those who have taken the mark of the beast. Those who have refuse and worshipped the LORD will lose their life, Rev.20:4.

Before the godless leaders of the world system can accomplished their reset, they must first get America out of the way. Which means to limit our freedom, our movement, control our finances, control our worship, disarm our citizens, eliminate free speech, make us subject to authority outside our constitution like the WHO. And prosecute anyone who disagrees with them, and create a state of lawlessness. And we see that and more converging now. And then there is the death and the rapture are you prepared.

First: Romans 4:1-8 , Second passage: 2 Corinthians 5: 19-21, Third passage: 1 John 2:1-2.

There comes a time in our life, when we must apply bible doctrine.. A week ago I spoke on, "Blessed is the man to whom the Lord will not impute sin." What does that mean Romans 4:6-8, Even as David also describeth the blessedness of the man, unto whom God imputeth righteousness without works, Saying, Blessed are they whose iniquities are forgiven, and whose sins are covered. Blessed is the man to whom the Lord will not impute sin. What does that mean? Answer: It means that person has eternal life. It means God sees Jesus, and not our sin.

But the only way the death of Jesus could pay for the sins of all mankind is for Christ to have been both God and man when He Died. And he is God incarnated, John 14:1.

It means that person has eternal salvation. And eternal salvation is the Gift of God, Romans 6:23 "Everlasting life is Eternal salvation" and it is a Bible doctrine, and a bible doctrine is part of Bible doctrine, 2 Ti 3:16 "all scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness": @ Ti 3:17 " that the man of God may be perfect, throughly furnished unto all good works."

Where are we now? We are living deceitful times, dangerous times, lawless times. For the last few studies I have talked about satan, his fall and deception, which is one of the marks of the end time. Deceit is everywhere. It is in every arena of our life. But in our Saviour, there is no deceitfulness! When He said, "I am The Way, The Truth, and The Life", That statement rules out all else but Him. Joh 8:36 " If the Son therefore shall make you free, ye shall be free indeed."

Our LORD and Saviour is the Creator of us and of all the Universe; satan is the imposter. Since, satan is a liar, and the father of it, his plan is to deceive you, about the LORD. And that you can live an abundantly life without Him. When in fact, the truth is without Him, we do not have life, Jesus said, "The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly. I am the good shepherd: the good shepherd giveth his life for the sheep.

The events[RR1] of the Tribulation cast their shadow beforehand. And we are seeing them forming in current events that are happening all around us and, in the world, as never before. There is deception in every arena of life: The political, the religious, the medical and in the shadow of the Globalist, and in the halls of justice. And the deception is advancing on all fronts. The imposter is satan, and he is activity in the world but in the tribulation, it will be open and intense and brings death and destruction.
The master deceiver satan is the originator of deception. And it commenced when iniquity was found in him, Isaiah 14:V14 "I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will be like the most High."

This angelic conflict led by satan, finds its end in the seven-year tribulation which ends with Israel repenting of rejecting and killing Jesus, their Messiah. And then the Revelation of Jesus Christ when He comes back to the earth. Mathew 24: focuses on the events of the tribulation but as we have seen in our studies, the events of the Tribulation cast their shadow beforehand. And we are seeing them forming in current events, that are happening all around us, and the world as never before.

We all know that Jesus is coming again and the signs are all around us. We see the signs, and they should cause us to prepare for the coming of the LORD. These signs are happening in current events: Eph 6:12 "For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places."

Signs of the times are all around us and we are to understand them, Mat 16:3 " And in the morning, it will be foul weather today: for the sky is red and lowring. O ye hypocrites, ye can discern the face of the sky; but can ye not discern the signs of the times? Mat16:4 A wicked and adulterous generation seeketh after a sign; and there shall no sign be given unto it, but the sign of the prophet Jonas. And he left them, and departed."

John 1:16, "And of his fulness have we all received, and Grace for grace."
If it were not for His Grace, we could never be saved and have victory or peace in our life. Today, we talk about the Vail and the colors on the fine linen and how they portray Christ. The Vail answers Job's dilemma: Neither is there any daysman betwixt us, that might lay his hand upon us both. Christ is our daysman, our mediator. "God was in Christ, reconciling the world unto himself, not imputing their trespasses unto them: and hath committed unto us the word of reconciliation."

Psalm 103:7 He made known his ways unto Moses, his acts unto the children of Israel.
If you have seen His acts, you should know His ways. But that is not the case with the children of Israel. And satan our enemy seeks to put seeds of unbelief in us about our LORD's ways.
He makes known His ways to the one who will live by faith.

Salvation is seen throughout all of scripture. It is a multi-faceted truth presented in various ways in the Word of God. As it relates to the New Testament believer, salvation has three main aspects: justification (the past aspect), sanctification (the present aspect), and glorification (the future aspect). Today, we want to focus our attention on the past, but mostly on the present aspect with a look to the future aspect. Most of the New Testament deals with the sanctification [present aspect] and glorification [future aspect].

It is easy to fear, if you look at the agenda of the Globalist and their One World Government. There is going to be a One World Government but it is not going to be theirs. It will be the Millennial Kingdom of our LORD Jesus Christ and the government is upon His Shoulders and He will rule and reign in Righteousness. So, the LORD is coming for us in the Rapture before the tribulation.
