Doctrinal Bits
By: Stephen Winters
Considerations
Luke 12:51 Suppose ye that I am come to give peace on earth? I tell you, Nay; but rather division:
Ecclesiastes 7:5 [It is] better to hear the rebuke of the wise, than for a man to hear the song of fools.
I Timothy 5:20 Them that sin rebuke before all, that others also may fear.
II Timothy 4:2 Preach the word; be instant in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all longsuffering and doctrine.
Titus 1:13 This witness is true. Wherefore rebuke them sharply, that they may be sound in the faith;
Titus 2:15 These things speak, and exhort, and rebuke with all authority. Let no man despise thee.
Revelation 3:19 As many as I love, I rebuke and chasten: be zealous therefore, and repent.
Luke 13:23 Then said one unto him, Lord, are there few that be saved? And he said unto them,
Luke 13:24 Strive to enter in at the strait gate: for many, I say unto you, will seek to enter in, and shall not be able.
Luke 13:25 When once the master of the house is risen up, and hath shut to the door, and ye begin to stand without, and to knock at the door, saying, Lord, Lord, open unto us; and he shall answer and say unto you, I know you not whence ye are:
Luke 13:26 Then shall ye begin to say, We have eaten and drunk in thy presence, and thou hast taught in our streets.
Luke 13:27 But he shall say, I tell you, I know you not whence ye are; depart from me, all ye workers of iniquity.
The Gospel
The gospel is the death, burial, and resurrection of the Lord Jesus Christ. This gospel (good news) is to be preached in all nations (beginning at Jerusalem). The gospel was first preached at Jerusalem on the day of Pentecost.
We are commanded to OBEY the gospel.(2 Th 1:8) (IPe 4:17). Now, how does one OBEY the death, burial, and resurrection?
Of course if someone did not believe, they would have no desire to obey. Jesus told Nicodemus a couple of very important things in John 3:16 and John 3:5, he said that those who believeth SHOULD not perish. He had just told Nicodemus that he HAD to be born AGAIN two ways. One water, one of Spirit. What does water and spirit have to do with the gospel? Well the first gospel sermon preached to sinners was Acts 2:38. “….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.” 1
Here are: water (baptism) and Spirit (the gift of the Holy Ghost) “‘and in repentance a person dies to sin..the old man dies. The Bible says that we are “buried with Christ in baptism” (Romans 6:4) or baptized into his death.
The Holy Ghost is Christ in you the hope of glory .,the hope of resurrection.
So there you have death, burial, and resurrection..the gospel. And the way that the apostles taught to obey it.
Have you obeyed the gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ?
Gal 1:8, Acts 2:39, Acts 10:44-48, Acts 11:5, Acts 19:1-6. Reincarnation
Hebrews 9:27 And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment:
The Bible clearly teaches that there is not reincarnation, but Father resurrection and judgment. You cannot be a Christian and believe in reincarnation. Reincarnation is contrary to the word of God.
John 5:29 (And shall come forth; they that have done good, unto the resurrection of life; and they that have done evil, unto the resurrection of damnation.)
John 11:24 Martha saith unto him, I know that he shall rise again in the resurrection at the last day.
Revelation 20:6 Blessed and holy [is] he that hath part in the first resurrection: on such the second death hath no power, but they shall be priests of God and of Christ, and shall reign with him a thousand years.
Carnally Minded
Romans 8:5 For they that are after the flesh do mind the things of the flesh; but they that are after the Spirit the things of the Spirit. Romans 8:6 For to be carnally minded [is] death; but to be spiritually minded [is] life and peace.
Romans 8:7 Because the carnal mind [is] enmity against God: for it is not subject to the law of God, neither indeed can be.
Romans 8:8 So then they that are in the flesh cannot please God.
I Corinthians 2:12 Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the spirit which is of God; that we might know the things that are freely given to us of God.
I Corinthians 2:13 Which things also we speak, not in the words which man’s wisdom teacheth, but which the Holy Ghost teacheth; comparing spiritual things with spiritual. It takes a genuine spiritual rebirth to even be able to understand spiritual things. *
I Corinthians 2:14 But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know [them], because they are spiritually discerned.
I Corinthians 2:15 But he that is spiritual judgeth all things, yet he 2 himself is judged of no man.
The false preachers will be the ones that teach the popular worldly false doctrines the “mainstream” religions. *
I John 4:5 They are of the world: therefore speak they of the world, and the world heareth them.
I John 4:6 We are of God: he that knoweth God heareth us; he that is not of God heareth not us. Hereby know we the spirit of truth, and the spirit of error. 4
John 1:10 He was in the world, and the world was made by him, and the world knew him not.
** So Jesus created the world *R*
John 1:11 He came unto his own, and his own received him not. *** Jehovah came to the Jews but they didn’t recognize Him. ***
Isaiah 44:24 Thus saith the LORD; thy redeemer, and he that formed thee from the womb, I [am] the LORD that maketh all [things]; that stretcheth forth the heavens alone; that spreadeth abroad the earth by myself;
*** Here Jesus explains that he created the earth ALONE ***
Zechariah 12:1 The burden of the word of the LORD for Israel, saith the LORD, which stretcheth forth the heavens, and layeth the foundation of the earth, and formeth the spirit of man within him.
Malachi 3:1 Behold, I will send my messenger, and he shall prepare the way before me; and the Lord, whom ye seek, shall suddenly come to his temple, even the messenger of the covenant, whom ye delight in: behold, he shall come, saith the LORD of hosts.
** Jehovah came suddenly to His temple. ***
Jesus Christ, Jehovah God manifest in the flesh. Jesus Christ is God! 5 Know!
Mark 12:28 And one of the scribes came, and having heard them reasoning together, and perceiving that he had answered them well, asked him, Which is the first commandment of all?
Mark 12:29 And Jesus answered him, The first of all the commandments [is], Hear, 0 Israel; The Lord our God is one Lord: Many teach that it doesn’t matter if you believe in three lords.*
Mark 12:30 And thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind, and with all thy strength: this [is] the first commandment.
Colossians 2:8 Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition of men, after the rudiments of the world, and not after Christ. 3
Colossians 2:9 For in him dwelleth all the fullness of the Godhead bodily.
Colossians 2:10 And ye are complete in him, which is the head of all principality and power:
Mark 14:62 And Jesus said, I am: and ye shall see the Son of man sitting on the right hand of power, and coming in the clouds of heaven.
*Right hand does not mean a big ole arm in the sky**
John 4:26 Jesus saith unto her, I that speak unto thee am [he],
John 8:58 Jesus said unto them, Verily, verilyly, I say unto you, Before Abraham was, I am.
Exodus 3:14 And God said unto Moses, I AM THAT I AM: and he said, Thus shalt thou say unto the children of Israel, I AM bath sent me unto you. 6
John 14:9 Jesus saith unto him, and yet hast thou not known me, seen the Father; and how sayest
John 14:9 Jesus saith unto him, and yet hast thou not known me, Have I been so long time with you, Philip? he that hath seen me hath thou [then], Shew us the Father? Have I been so long time with you, Philip? he that hath seen me hath seen the Father; and how sayest thou [then], Shew vs the Father?
Jude 1:17 But, beloved, remember ye the words which were spoken before of the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ;
Jude 1:18 How that they told you there should be mockers in the last time, who should walk after their own ungodly lusts.
Jude 1:19 These be they who separate themselves, sensual, having not the Spirit.
Jude 1:20 But ye, beloved, building up yourselves on your most holy faith, praying in the Holy Ghost,
Jude 1:21 Keep yourselves in the love of God, looking for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ unto eternal life.
Jude 1:22 And of some have compassion, making a difference:
Jude 1:23 And others save with fear, pulling [them] out of the fire; hating even the garment spotted by the flesh.
Jude 1:24 Now unto him that is able to keep you from falling, and to present [you] faultless before the presence of his glory with exceeding joy,
Jude 1:25 To the only wise God our Saviour, [be] glory and majesty, dominion and power, both now and for ever. Amen.
Isaiah 43:11 I, [even] I, [am] the LORD; and beside me [there is] no saviour.
Isaiah 45:21 Tell ye, and bring [them] near; yea, let them take counsel together: who bath declared this from ancient time? [who] hath told it from that time? [have] not I the LORD? and [there is] no God else beside me; a just God and a Saviour; [there is] none beside me.
Hosea 13:4 Yet I [am] the LORD thy God from the land of Egypt, and thou shalt know no god but me: for [there is] no saviour beside me.
Luke 2:11 For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Saviour, which is Christ the Lord. 4
Flesh & Spirit
* In this post I will attempt to explain how the son could pray to the father and still not be two separate gods (or persons). The key to understanding this is understanding “flesh” and “spirit”: Here, Te see that God the Father of the old testament does NOT have flesh and bone (so consider also “The Right Hand” does not mean a big ole arm)..See, God is a Spirit and a spirit hath NOT flesh and bone. *
Luke 24:39 Behold my hands and my feet, that it is I myself: handle me, and see; for a spirit hath not flesh and bones, as ye see me have.
John 4:24 God [is] a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship [him] in spirit and in truth….* Also notice the importance of TRUTH in worshiping God, We MUST know WHO we are worshipping! God of the old testament came to earth in human form, he did NOT have blood to shed for anyone; s00000 he took on a human body and came to his people-
John 1;11 He came unto his own, and his own received him not.
II Corinthians 5:19 To wit, that God was in Christ, reconciling the world unto himself, not imputing their trespasses unto them; and hath committed unto us the word of reconciliation.
In other words God came in the form of Christ, not a “second person” or “Jehovah Jr.”, but God HIMSELF in a human body..the Lord of Glory himself…. *
I Corinthians 2:8 Which none of the princes of this world knew: for had they known [it], they would not have crucified the Lord of glory.
God did not send anyone else to “do the dirty work” HE CAME HIMSELF and took on a life and then gave up that life for us!! R
I John 3:16 Hereby perceive we the love [of God], because he laid down his life for us….”
God himself in a human body, but even then the Spirit of God was greater than the flesh of God..even God had to keep his flesh in subjection to his Spirit..It was not the flesh body of God that did the miracles, but rather the Spirit that was in the body…and, in the garden it was flesh praying to Spirit (not one god praying to another).
John 14:10 Believest thou not that I am in the Father, and the Father in
me? the words that I speak unto you I speak not of myself: but the Father that dwelleth in me, he doeth the works.
John 5:37 And the Father himself, which hath sent me, hath borne witness of me. Ye have neither heard his voice at any time, nor seen his shape.
**(The Father IN the son=The Spirit in the flesh) ***
Matthew 13:17 (For verily I say unto you, That many prophets and righteous [men] have desired to see [those things] which ye see, and have not seen [them]; and to hear [those things] which ye hear, and have
not heard [them].) 5
Matthew 17:5 While he yet spake, behold, a bright cloud overshadowed them: and behold a voice out of the cloud, which said, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased; hear ye him.
Mark 1:11 And there came a voice from heaven, [saying], Thou art my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.
II Peter 1:17 For he received from God the Father honour and glory, when there came such a voice to him from the excellent glory, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased. (Notice “IN WHOM” in each verse, the Father (spirit) was IN the son (flesh)).
John 14:9 Jesus saith unto him, Have I been so long time with you, and yet hast thou not known me, Philip? he that hath seen me hath seen the Father; and how sayest thou [then], Shew us the Father?
John 14:10 Believest thou not that I am in the Father, and the Father in me? the words that I speak unto you I speak not of myself: but the Father that dwelleth in me, he doeth the works
Jesus Christ, Jehovah God in the flesh. Why is this so important?
Mark 12:29 And Jesus answered him, The first of all the commandments [is], Hear, 0 Israel; The Lord our God is one Lord:) Not three lords, not “three separate persons”, ONE GOD: JESUS!! 9 Absolutes!
Let us consider that some things in the word of God are clear and absolute. There are other things that, if not viewed in the light of the absolutes can infer heretical conclusions. Now, there has never been an heretic who was not convinced he was right (and saved); and there was never an heretic who did not have scripture that seemed to infer his correctness But TRUTH is essential for salvation!!
It’s not just accepting truth, but LOVING IT!!! R
II Thessalonians 2:9 [Even him], whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders, II Thessalonians 2:10 And with all deceitfulness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the LOVE OF THE TRUTH, that they might be saved.
II Thessalonians 2:11 And for this cause GOD SHALL SEND THEM STRONG DELUSION, that they should believe a lie:
II Thessalonians 2:12 That they all might be DAMNED WHO BELIEVED NOT THE TRUTH, but had pleasure in unrighteousness.
Now, friend, this says that if you don’t love the truth, then God himself will send you STRONG DELUSION!! If you don’t believe the truth you will be damned…So that is how important accuracy in doctrine is!! It is a matter of HEAVEN or HELL!
NOW, there are many scriptures, if viewed carnally without knowledge, that can be misconstrued and a false doctrine built: *
Exodus 3;4 And when the LORD saw that he turned aside to see, God called unto him out of the midst of the bush, and said, Moses, Moses. And he said, Here [am] I.
Exodus 3:5 And he said, Draw not nigh hither: put off thy shoes from off 6 thy feet, for the place where on thou standest [is] holy ground.
Exodus 3:6 Moreover he said, I [am] the God of thy father, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob. And Moses hid his face; for he was afraid to look upon God. NOW, does this mean that there is a “bush” in the GodHead? Are we to infer that God is a bush?? Did Moses really SEE God??
I John 4:12 No man hath seen God at any time….
Because Of the ABSOLUTE in John 4:12 we see that Moses only saw a manifestation of God… *
10
Now, it is essential to know who God is because MANY are merely worshipping figments of human imagination. We must know God, by his WORD!!-
Jeremiah 16:20 Shall a man make gods unto himself, and they [are] no gods?
John 4:24 (God [is] a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship [him] in spirit and in truth.)
Luke 24:39 (Behold my hands and my feet, that it is I myself: handle me, and see; for a spirit bath not flesh and bones, as ye see me have.i
God is a SPIRIT and a SPIRIT HATH NOT FLESH AND BONE….Consider God’s flesh and God’s Spirit…Flesh and Spirit… Jesus prayed to the Father. Jesus said that the Father was greater. There was a voice from heaven at his baptism. When Jesus prayed, It was flesh praying to Spirit, flesh yielding to Spirit (in the garden). Jesus said that the Father was greater (of course the Spirit is greater than the flesh)…A voice from heaven for men to hear, a voice from an animal, a voice from a bush. *
John 8:58 Jesus said unto them, (Verily, verily, I say-unto you, Before Abraham was, I am. I (It was Jesus SPEAKING out of the burning bush).
Now these things can infer more than one person in the Godhead UNLESS we view them in the Light of some other ABSOLUTES: *
Jeremiah 16: 20 Shall a man make gods unto himself, and they are no Gods?”
Deut 4:35 Unto thee it was shewed, that thou mightest know that the Lord he is God; there is none else beside him.
Deut 4:39 Know therefore this day, and consider it in thine heart, that the Lord he is God in heaven above, and upon the earth beneath; there is none else.
Deut 6:4 Hear, 0 Israel: The Lord our God is one Lord:
Deut 32:39 See now that I, even I, am he, and THERE IS NO GOD WITH ME: I kill, and I make alive; I wound and I heal: neither is there any that can deliver out of my hand.
Psalms 86:10 For thou art great, and doest wondrous things: THOU ART GOD ALONE.
Isaiah 43:3 For I am the Lord thy God, the Holy One of Israel, THY 7
SAVIOR: I gave Egypt for thy ransom, Ethiopia and Seba for thee.11
Isaiah 43:10 Ye are my witnesses, sayeth the Lord, and my servant whom I have chosen; that ye may know and believe me, and understand that I am he: before me there was no God formed, neither shall there be after me.
Isaiah 43:11 I, even I, am the Lord, and BESIDES ME THERE IS NO SAVIOR.
Isaiah 44:6 Thus saith the Lord, the King of Israel, and his redeemer the Lord of hosts: I am the first, and I am the last, and BESIDE ME THERE IS NO GOD.
Isaiah 44:24 Thus saith the Lord, thy redeemer, and he that formed thee from the womb, I am the Lord that maketh all things; that stretchth forth the heavens ALONE; that spreadeth abroad the earth BY MYSELF;
Isaiah 45:5, 6, 18, 21, 2, CH 46:5, 9, CH 47:10, CH 48:11
Titus 1:3 But hath in due times manifested his word through preaching, which is committed unto me according to the commandment of GOD OUR SAVIOR.
Titus 3;4 But after that the kindness and love of GOD OUR SAVIOR toward man appeared,
Mark 12:29 And Jesus answered him, The first of all the commandments is, Hear, 0 Israel; the Lord our God is one Lord.
Ephesians 4:5 ONE LORD, one faith, one baptism.
I Tim 3:16 And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness: GOO WAS MANIFEST IN THE FLESH, justified in the Spirit, seen of angels, preached unto the Gentiles, believed on in the world, received up into glory.
I John 3:16 Hereby perceive we the love of God, because he laid down HIS LIFE for us: and we ought to lay down our lives for the brethren.
St. John 14;9 Jesus saith unto him, Have I been so long time with you, and yet HAST THOU NOT KNOWN ME, Philip? HE THAT HATH SEEN ME HATH SEEN THE FATHER; and how sayest thou then, Shew us the Father?
Isaiah 9:6 For unto us a CHILD is born, unto us a SON is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, THE MIGHTY GOD, THE EVERLASTING FATHER, the Prince of Peace.
Jude 25 To the only wise GOD OUR SAVIOR, be glory and majesty, dominion and power, both now and forever, Amen.12
Once Saved Always Saved
Paul said “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. (I Corinthians 9:27)
“Once saved always saved” says that there will be no castaways you can 8 believe them or the Bible. s
Wherefore let him that thinketh he standeth take heed lest he fall. (I Corinthians 10:12)
Once saved always saved says that no one can fall, You can believe them or the Bible.
Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap. For he that
soweth to his flesh shall of the flesh reap corrvption; but he that soweth to the Spirit shall of the Spirit reap life everlasting.(Galatians 6: 7,8)
This was written to the church members at Galatia. “Once saved always saved” says that no believer will reap corruption. You can believe them or the Bible. * – believe the Bible. drunkenness, revellings, and such like: of the which I tell you before, as I have also told you in times past, that they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God.
(Galatians 5:19-21)
This was written to “saints in the Galatian church” telling them that if they did certain things that they would NOT inherit the kingdom of God.
Now the just shall live by faith: but if any man draw back, my soul shall have no pleasure in him. But we are not of them that draw back into perdition: but of them that believe to the saving of the soul, (Hebrews 10: 38,39)
Wherefore, lay apart all filthiness and superfluity of naughtiness, and receive with meekness the engrafted word, which is able to save your souls. But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, DECEIVING YOUR OWN SELVES. (James 1: 21,22)
For when they speak great swelling words of vanity, they allure through the lusts of the flesh, through much wantonness, those that were clean escaped from them who live in error. (II Peter 2:18)
Whosoever abideth in him sinneth not: whosoever sinneth hath not seen him neither known him.(I John 3:6) 13
Saviour
Isaiah 43:11 I, [even] I, [am the LORD; and beside me [there is] no saviour.
Isaiah 45;21 Tell ye, and bring [them] near; yea, let them take counsel together; who hath declared this from ancient time? [who] hath told it from that time? [have] riot I the LORD? and [there is] no God else beside me; a just God and a Saviour; [there is] none beside me.
Hosea 13:4 Yet I [am] the LORD the God from the land of Egypt, and thou shalt know no god but me: for [there is] no saviour beside me.
Luke 2:11 For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Saviour, which is Christ the Lord. 9
Since there is no saviour except for Jehovah, it must have been Jehovah God coming to earth in a human form as “the son”.
John 14:9 Jesus saith unto him, Have I been so long time with you, and yet hast thou not known me, Philip? he that hath seen me hath seen the Father; and how sayest thou [then], Shew us the Father?
John 10:30 I and (my] Father are one.
John 8:58 Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Before Abraham was, I am. Jesus revealed that he really was the Father, the “I AM”
Isaiah 44:8 Fear ye not, neither be afraid: have not I told thee from that time, and have declared [it]? ye [are] even my witnesses. Is there a God beside me? yea, [there is] no God; I know not [any]. believe that if there had been any other “personages” here that Jehovah would have been aware of them.
II John 1:7 For many deceivers are entered into the world, who confess not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh. This is a deceiver and an Antichrist.
Those who deny that “Jehovah saviour” came “in the flesh” are of the Antichrist spirit. That is why both the Baha’s and the trinitarian’s are Antichrist deceivers. The trinitarian teaches that only a “junior member” or “second person” of a “family” or group” of gods came to earth. And, many other Antichrist
religions teach that Jesus was just one of several “saviours”. 14
Tradition
Matthew 15:3 But he answered and said unto them, Why do ye also transgress the commandment of God by your tradition?
Matthew 15:7 [Ye] hypocrites, well did Esaias prophesy of you, saying, Matthew 15:8 This people draweth nigh unto me with their mouth, and honoureth me with [their] lips; but their heart is far from me.
Matthew 15:9 But in vain they do worship me, teaching [for] doctrines the commandments of men.
Mark 7:13 Making the word of God of none effect through your tradition, which ye have delivered: and many such like things do ye.
Colossians 2:4 And this I say, lest any man should beguile you with enticing words.
Colossians 2:8 Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition of men, after the rudiments of the world, and not after Christ.
Colossians 2:9 For in him dwelleth all the fullness of the Godhead bodily.
Colossians 2:10 And ye are complete in him, which is the head of all principality and power:
Colossians 2:12 Buried with him in baptism, wherein also ye are risen with [him] through the faith of the operation of God, who hath raised him from the dead. 10
I Corinthians 15:1 Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I Preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand;
I Corinthians 15:2 By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain.15
Vain Worship
Matthew 15:9 (But in vain they do worship me, teaching [for] doctrines the commandments of men.
Mark 7:7 (Howbeit in vain do they worship me, teaching [for] doctrines the commandments of men.)
I Corinthians 15:2 By which also ye are saved if ye keep in memory what
I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain.
I hope that these verses will show that through manmade doctrines it is possible that a persons worship could be IN VAIN, and that a persons sincere belief could also be IN VAIN..I want to expose the “easy believism preachers” as the accursed satanic workers that they are.
II Timothy 3:4 Traitors, heady, high-minded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God;
II Timothy 3:5 Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away.
This is a pleasure mad generation even in many so called churches”, they “hold to the form”(in other words they go to church they have the form or ritual) but deny the power..they deny the power to quit sins, they deny tongues (which is the initial power of the Holy Ghost).
II Timothy 3:6 For of this sort are they which creep into houses, and lead captive silly women laden with sins, led away with divers
lusts, ;he II Timothy 3:7 Ever learning, and never able to come to knowledge of the truth.
II Timothy 3:8 Now as Jannes and Jambres withstood Moses, so do these also resist the truth: men of corrupt minds, reprobate concerning the faith.
Matthew 7:15 (Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves.)
Matthew 24:11 (And many false prophets shall rise, and shall deceive many.)
I John 4:1 Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God because many false prophets are gone out into the world. 16
II Corinthians 11:13 For such [are] false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming themselves into the apostles of Christ.
II Corinthians 11:14 And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light.
II Corinthians 11:15 Therefore [it is] no great thing if his ministers also be transformed as the ministers of righteousness; those end shall be according to their work. 11
So Satan’s ministers pretend to be Christs ministers..and oh do they speak great swelling words that appear so wise, and they deftly, and masterfully TWIST the scriptures, deceiving the masses.*
II Timothy 4:2 Preach the word; be instant in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all longsuffering and doctrine.
II Timothy 4:3 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;
II Timothy 4;4 And they shall turn away [their] ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables.
We are at that place where men and women will not endure sound doctrine,:but are elevating false
preachers that will just call any doctrine “legalism” and “bondage and will preach a fable that everyone is going to heaven if they just “believe on the Lord” and stuff like that, twisting and perverting the precious word of God. But the Bible WARNED that they would come and deceive MANY.
Acts 2:38 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
Acts 2:39 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.
AS MANY AS THE LORD OUR GOD SHALL CALL–(that means YOU boss)*
Galatians 1:8 But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel unto you than that which we have preached unto you, let him be accursed.
Galatians 1:9 As we said before, so say I now again, If any [man] preach any other gospel unto you than that ye have received, let him be accursed.*** (the one that they had received was Acts 2;38) 17
The Trinity
The Doctrine of the trinity clearly are taught that three separate persons, co-eternal, co-equal.
This theory must be accepted, that it is beyond human understanding, and must be accepted by faith. While I believe that there is much in the word of God that should be accepted by faith, I don’t believe that a human theory that contradicts the word of God need be accepted at all.
In Isaiah Chapter 44-46 God clearly declares that there is no God beside him and no god equal to him, that he is alone. According to the trinity the three separate persons are having fellowship together during this period. Is 44: 6,8, 24 Is 45: 5, 6, 18, 21, 22.
Is 46: 5, 9. You need to stick with the Bible!
Isaiah 9:6 Clearly states that the child that is to be born is the everlasting Father, the Mighty God.
In Matt 28:18 Jesus clearly states that he has ALL POWER, so if there were any separate “persons” they would be powerless. Jesus even told Philip “He that hath seen me hath seen the Father.” John 14:9 12
The doctrine of the trinity is simply carnal ungodly men attempting to explain spiritual things to other carnal men.
In Matt 28:19 Jesus told his disciples to baptise using a name. The apostles did use a name, they used the name of Jesus. Acts 2:38, 8:16, 19:5.
In Acts 9:5 When Saul cried out to God and asked God who he was, God answered and said, “I AM JESUS”.
The devil has many deceived into thinking that Jesus is a junior one third of god, when in fact JESUS IS THE MIGHTY GOD! 18
“Jesus Only”
Since we know from the word of God that Satan’s preachers will be pretending to be Christ’s ministers; we need to be on guard. One question to ask yourself about a preacher is: Is this man stressing obedience to God’s word OR is he constantly making “loopholes” and saying that commandments are “legalism” and things like that, as if God’s counsel and instruction is “bondage”? (it is; for the devil)…
Another thing that I have noticed is that many of the false preachers from the “three god” churches will use God’s name in what they perceive to be a derogatory term. They say that the one God church is “Jesus only” and their victims are conditioned to react : “Oh, yeah, “Jesus only
And so they take the Lord’s name in vain, and use God’s name as an insult..Of course Jesus told us (the true Church) that we would be hated “FOR HIS NAME’S SAKE”
The false “three god’s of Babylon” (that’s where the trinity originated, long before Christ) churches HATE baptism in Jesus name they hate the name of Jesus so bad that they use it as an insult “Jesus only” they say….so they really don’t believe that Jesus is God….they claim to be Christian, but they lie (their father is the father of lies).
Don’t be Deceived! The Bible says that the fullness of the Godhead dwelt in Him (Jesus) bodily, and YE ARE COMPLETE IN HIM…
He is coming soon, in the clouds for those that LOVE His NAME, and have obeyed His word
19
The Mother of Harlots
The false church is following a manmade teaching. They have to go to “denominal opinions of men” that originated in the 2nd and 3rd century to explain and discuss their beliefs. It is also interesting that the same bunch at Rome that dreamed up the trinity, also ushered in the dark ages by killing people for possessing Bibles. It is important to realize that the Catholic Church is the “Great Whore” In the book of Rev. and the “mother of harlots” (the harlots being the denominations that retain the trinity heresy). 13
The harlot wants relationship with man, but will not “take the man’s name” and will not forsake her worldly loves for her husband. Just as the harlot churches will not use Jesus name in baptism, and will not forsake the sins of the world.
Here I will show some of the apostles writing that exposes certain of the false doctrines taught by the harlot churches.” *
Acts 2:38 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.
(The harlot churches use the titles of their 3 gods if they even baptise at all. They ignore Matt 28:19 in which Jesus said to use ” ” and they just “parrot” the command instead of obeying a name,
Luke 24:47 And that repentance and remission of sins should be preached in his NAME among all nations, beginning at Jerusalem.
Colossians 2:8 Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition of men, after the rudiments of the world, and not after Christ.
Colossians 2:9 For in him dwelleth ALL the fullness of the Godhead bodily.(the harlot church doesn’t believe that the fullness is in Jesus, they don’t believe that “ye are complete in him”, they teach the tradition of men from the 2nd and 3rd century)
Colossians 2:10 And ye are complete in HIM, which is the head of all principality and power:
Acts 4:12 Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved. Acts 8:16, Acts 10:48, Acts 10:43, Acts 19:5, Col 3:17 20
Also here are some historical references showing where tradition replaced apostolic truth,: *
ENCYCLOPEDIA BRITANNICA, 11th Ed. Vol. 3 Page 365-366, “The baptismal formula was changed from the name of Jesus Christ to the words Father, Son, and Holy Ghost by the Catholic Church in the 2nd Century.” Vol. 3 Page 82 “Everywhere in the oldest sources it states that baptism took place in the Name of Jesus Christ.”
CANNEY ENCYCLOPEDIA OF RELIGION, Page 53 — “The early church always baptized in the Name of Lord Jesus until the development of the trinity doctrine in the 2nd Century.”
1913 CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA, Vol. 2, page 365, Here the Catholic acknowledge that baptism was changed by the Catholic Church.
HASTINGS ENCYCLOPEDIA OF RELIGION, Vol. 2 pages 377-378-389, “The Christian baptism was administered using the Name of Jesus. The use of the trinitarian formula of any sort was not suggested in the early church history, baptism was always in the Name of the Lord Jesus, until the time of Justin Martyr when the trinity formula was used.” Hastings also said in Vol. 2 Page 377, commenting on Acts 2:38, “NAME was an ancient synonym for person. Payment was always made in the name of some person referring to ownership. Therefore one being baptized in Jesus Name became his personal property.” Ye are Christ’s.” I Cor. 3:23. 14
NEW INTERNATIONAL ENCYCLOPEDIA, Vol. 22 Page 477, “The term “trinity” was originated by Tertullain, Roman Catholic Church father.” 21

Hell
Revelation 14:10 The same shall drink of the wine of the wrath of God, which is poured out without mixture into the cup of his indignation; and he shall be tormented with fire and brimstone in the presence of the holy angels, and in the presence of the Lamb: 15

Mark 9:48 Where their worm dieth not, and the fire is not quenched. 23
Sin
I John 3:3 And every man that hath this hope in him purifieth himself, even as he is pure.
I John 3:4 Whosoever committeth sin transgresseth also the law: for sin is the transgression of the law.
I John 3:5 And ye know that he was manifested to take away our sins; and in him is no sin
I John 3:6 Whosoever abideth in him sinneth not: whosoever sinneth hath not see him, neither known him.
I John 3:7 Little children, let no man deceive you: he that doeth righteousness is righteous, even as he is righteous.
I John 3:8 He that committeth sin is of the devil; for the devil sinneth from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that he might destroy the works of the devil.
I John 3:9 Whosoever is born of God doth not commit sin; for his seed remaineth in him: and he cannot sin, because he is born of God.
John 5:14 Afterward Jesus findeth him in the temple, and said unto him, Behold, thou art made whole: sin no more, lest a worse thing come unto thee.
I John 5:18 We know that whosoever is born of God sinneth not; but he that is begotten of God keepeth himself, and that wicked one toucheth him not.
John 8:34 Jesus answered them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Whosoever committeth sin is the servant of sin.
Romans 6:2 God forbid. How shall we, that are dead to sin, live any
longer therein?
Romans 6:6 Knowing this, that our old man is crucified with [him], that the body of sin might be destroyed, that henceforth we should not serve Sin.
16
Romans 6:16 Know ye not, that to whom ye yield yourselves servants to obey, his servants ye are to whom ye obey; whether of sin unto death, or of obedience unto righteousness?
Romans 6:17 But God be thanked, that ye were the servants of sin, but ye have obeyed from the heart that form of doctrine which was delivered you.
I Timothy 5:20 Them that sin rebuke before all, that others also may fear.
Hebrews 10:26 For if we sin willfully after that we have received the knowledge of the truth, there remaineth no more sacrifice for sins, 24
Abomination
Leviticus 18:22 Thou shalt not lie with mankind, as with womankind: it [is] abomination.
Leviticus 20:13 If a man also lie with mankind, as he lieth with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination: they shall surely be put to death; their blood [shallil be] upon them.
Romans 1:26 For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature:
Romans 1:27 And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompense of their error which was meet.
Romans 1:28 And even as they did not like to retain God in [their] knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient;
I Corinthians 6:9 Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor EFFEMINATE, nor abusers of themselves with mankind,
I wonder if I’ve been “exhaustive” enough here with this brief feible study. It does seem from these verses that God does have feelings concerning certain matters. 25
Angels of Light
It is the job of the false preacher to convince the damned that they are “saved”. It is the job of the false preacher to convince people that God didn’t really mean what he said. It is the job of the false preacher to deceive people, to play on their pride and convince them that “it doesn’t really matter”,
The Bible speaks of false preachers… *
II Corinthians 11:13 For such [are] false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming themselves into the apostles of Christ.
II Corinthians 11:14 And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light. 17
II Corinthians 11:15 Therefore [it is] no great thing if his ministers also be transformed as the ministers of righteousness; whose end shall be according to their works.
So we see that Satan’s ministers will pretend to be God’s preachers! *
Jeremiah 14:14 Then the LORD said unto me, The prophets prophesy lies in my name: I sent them not,
neither have I commanded them, neither spake unto them; they prophesy unto you a false vision and divination, and a thing of nought, and the deceit of their heart.
Have you noticed how the false preachers will point to the multitudes that believe like they teach as “proof”?
Matthew 7:13 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:
Matthew 7:14 Because strait [is] the gate, and narrow [is] the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it. Matthew 7:15 Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves.
Matthew 24:11 And many false prophets shall rise, and shall deceive many.
I John 4:5 They are of the world: therefore speak they of the world, and the world heareth them.
The worldly just *love* their false preachers, but…
Matthew 15:14 Let them alone: they be blind leaders of the blind. And if the blind lead the blind, both shall fall into the ditch. 26
Luke 6:39 And he spake a parable unto them, Can the blind lead the blind? shall they not both fall into the ditch?
Here’s what true preachers teach- s
Acts 2:38 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.
Acts 2:39 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.
Acts 2:40 And with many other words did he testify and exhort, saying, Save yourselves from this untoward generation.
Acts 2:41 Then they that gladly received his word were baptized: and the same day there were added [unto them] about three thousand souls.
Acts 2:42 And they continued steadfastly in the apostles’ doctrine and fellowship, and in breaking of bread, and in prayers.
The Bible mentions those who preach “different things”:
Galatians 1:8 But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel unto you than that which we have preached unto you, let him be accursed.
Galatians 1:9 As we said before, so say I now again, If any [man] preach any other gospel unto you than that ye have received, let him be accursed.
18
27
Preachers
Here’s a few verses to expose a bunch of false preachers. Notice that a deacon(a young preacher), an elder, or a bishop; all must be the husband of only one wife. So if a man has a living ex-wife and has remarried; he is disqualified from the ministry. Also if his wife and children are not in subjection to him, then he is disqualified from being a pastor…
So, you see, there are many filling pulpits who have no business there
I Timothy 3:2 A bishop then must be blameless, the husband of one wife, vigilant, sober, of good behavior, given to hospitality, apt to teach; I Timothy 3;3 Not given to wine, no striker, not greedy of filthy lucre;but patient, not a brawler, not covetous;
I Timothy 3:4 One that ruleth well his own house, having his children in subjection with all gravity;
I Timothy 3:5 (For if a man know not how to rule his own house, how shall he take care of the church of God?)
I Timothy 3:6 Not a novice, lest being lifted up with pride he fall into the condemnation of the devil.
I Timothy 3:10 And let these also first be proved; then let them use the office of a deacon, being [found] blameless.
I Timothy 3:11 Even so [must their] wives [be] grave, not slanderers, sober, faithful in all things.
I Timothy 3;12 Let the deacons be the husbands of one wife, ruling their children and their own houses well.
Titus 1:5 For this cause left I thee in Crete, that thou shouldest set in order the things that are wanting, and ordain elders in every city, as I had appointed thee:
Titus 1:6 If any be blameless, the husband of one wife, having faithful children not accused of riot or unruly.
Titus 1:7 For a bishop must be blameless, as the steward of God; not selfwilled, not soon angry, not given to wine, no strong drink, not given to filthy lucre;
Also we must remember that if any preacher is preaching any variation of the apostolic doctrine (Acts 2:38):
Galatians 1:8 But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel unto you than that which we have preached unto you, let him be accursed.
Galatians 1:9 As we said before, so say I now again, If any [man] preach any other gospel unto you than that ye have received, let him be accursed. 28
The “Believe Only”
Many of the enemies of God are taking a couple of Bible verses out of letters that were written to SAINTS that had ALREADY OBEYED Acts 2:38. These enemies of God are teaching that if a person simply says that they believe in Jesus, that they are saved simply by “claiming to believe”.
If belief ALONE would save then we would have a saved devil 19
James 2:19 Thou believest that there is one God; thou doest well: the devils also believe, and tremble.
The devils in Legion “made public profession” that Jesus was LORD.
Jesus even answered their prayer. and allowed them to go into a heard of pigs.
Mark 5:7 And cried with a loud voice, and said, What have I to do with thee, Jesus, [thou] Son of the most high God? I adjure thee by God, that thou torment me not.
Mark 5:8 For he said unto him, (Come out of the man, [thou] unclean spirit.) [is] thy name?) And he answered, Mark 5:9 And he asked him, (What saying, My name [is] Legion: for we are many.
Mark 5:10 And he besought him much that he would not send them away out of the country.
Mark 5:12 And all the devils besought him, saying, Send us into the swine, that we may enter into them.
* Don’t let God’s enemies deceive you with their “belief only” doctrine. It is such shallow foolishness. *
Acts 2:38 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.
Acts 2:39 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.
Corinthians 15;2 By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain.

Blind Guides
Isaiah 9;16 For the leaders of this people cause [them] to err; and [they that are] led of them [are] destroyed.
Isaiah 9:17 Therefore the Lord shall have no joy in their young men, neither shall have mercy on their fatherless and widows: for every one [is] an hypocrite and an evildoer, and every mouth speaketh folly. For all this his anger is not turned away, but his hand [is] stretched out still.

Jeremiah 5:29 Shall I not visit for these [things]? saith-the LORD: shall

Jeremiah 6:16 Thus saith the LORD, Stand ye in the ways, and see, and ask for the old paths, where [isl the good way, and walk therein, and ye shall find rest for your souls. But they said, We will not walk [therein].
Jeremiah 6:17 Also I set watchmen over you, [saying], Hearken to the sound of the trumpet. But they said, We will not hearken. Jeremiah 6:18 Therefore hear, ye nations, and know, 0 congregation, what [is] among them.
Jeremiah 6:19 Hear, 0 earth: behold, I will bring evil upon this people, [even] the fruit of their thoughts, because they have not hearkened unto my words, nor to my law, but rejected it. 30
Jeremiah 8:8 How do ye say, We [are] wise, and the law of the LORD [is] with us? Lo, certainly in vain made he [it]; the Pen of the scribes [is] in vain.
Jeremiah 8:9 The wise [men] are ashamed, they are dismayed and taken: 10, they have rejected the word of the LORD; and what wisdom [is] in them?
Jeremiah 8:10 Therefore will I give their wives unto others, [and] their fields to them that shall inherit [them]: for every one from the least even unto the greatest is given to covetousness, from the prophet even unto the priest every one dealeth falsely.
Jeremiah 8:11 For they have healed the hurt of the daughter of my people slightly, saying, Peace, peace; when [there is] no peace. Jeremiah 8:12 Were they ashamed when they had committed abomination? nay, they were not at all ashamed, neither could they blush: therefore shall they fall among them that fall: in the time of their visitation they shall be cast down, saith the LORD.
Ezekiel 14:6 Therefore say unto the house of Israel, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Repent, and turn [yourselves] from your idols; and turn away your faces from all your abominations.
Ezekiel 14:7 For every one of the house of Israel, or of the stranger that sojourneth in Israel, which separateth himself from me, and setteth up his idols in his heart, and putteth the stumblingblock of his iniquity before his face, and cometh to a prophet to inquire of him concerning me; I the LORD will answer him by myself:
Ezekiel 14:8 And I will set my face against that man, and will make him a sign and a proverb, and I will cut him off from the midst of my people; and ye shall know that I [am] the LORD.
Ezekiel 14:9 And if the prophet be deceived when he hath spoken a thing, I the LORD have deceived that prophet, and I will stretch out my hand upon him, and will destroy him from the midst of my people Israel.
Ezekiel 14:10 And they shall bear the punishment of their iniquity: the punishment of the prophet shall be even as the punishment of him that seeketh [unto him];
Luke 6:39 And he spake a parable unto them, Can the blind lead the blind? shall they not both fall into the ditch?
I Timothy 6:5 Perverse disputings of men of corrupt minds, and destitute 21 of the truth, supposing that gain is godliness: from such withdraw thyself.

II Peter 2:17 These are wells without water, clouds that are carried with a tempest; to whom the mist of darkness is reserved for ever. 31
Which “Jesus”
John 8:58 Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Before Abraham was, I am.
Exodus 3:14 And God said unto Moses, I AM THAT I AM: and he said, Thus shalt thou say unto the children of Israel, I AM hath sent me unto you.
There is only one God and He is ONE person, not three , and his name is Jesus. Sadly, there are many who are not worshiping the Jesus of the Bible, who, according to the scripture, IS the everlasting Father. These poor souls are worshiping,a rigment of carnal human imagination, a man made “Jesus”, that is a separate person from God, or just merely a part of God. In their vain imagination they mold their “Jesus” to fit their personal concepts, they manufacture a fable of a “Jesus” that will just overlook unrepented sins and just take any and everything into heaven. They confuse emotional titilizations with spiritual activity…They prefer dewy eyed fables over the Word of God.
An idol need not be a manmade “icon” or statue; a mental concept can also be an idol god, just as much as a statue of a golden calf. It has always been the carnal nature to manufacture a god that fit rather than measuring up to a true Godly standard. A person worshiping the catholic trinity, might as well worship rocks, or goats, or dogs or trees; they are basing their religion on a figment of human imagination, rather than on the God of the Bible. *
32
Peter’s Conversion
Mark 4:12 That seeing they may see, and not perceive; and hearing they may hear, and not understand; lest at any time they should be converted, and [their] sins should be forgiven them.
We have many people today claiming to be converted or “saved”. Yet, none of them spent time with Jesus. Peter spent quite a bit of time with the Lord,. Yet, we see that Peter was not yet “converted” or “born
again . Even though he obviously “believed”. We see that Jesus told Peter that WHEN he was converted (future tense)..In fact we notice that Peter even denied the Lord after this conversation” *
Luke 22:31 And the Lord said, Simon, Simon, behold, Satan hath desired [to have] you, that he may sift [you] as wheat: ,
Luke 22:32 But I have prayed for thee, that thy faith fail not: and WHEN thou art converted, strengthen thy brethren.
Luke 22:33 And he said unto him, Lord, I am ready to go with thee, both into prison, and to death.
Luke 22:34 And he said, I tell thee, Peter, the cock shall not crow this 22 day, before that thou shalt thrice deny that thou knowest me.
The only major “conversion” event that happened to Peter was when he was filled with the Holy Ghost in the Upper Room. He never denied the Lord after that. The Holy Ghost speaking in tongues is the “birth of the Spirit” that Jesus mentioned in John 3:5..It was in the Upper Room that Peter was CONVERTED or “born again of the Spirit.” Many today make great swelling claims of Christianity, and claim to be Christian even though they don’t even believe in tongues” But, just as Peter was wrong when he said that he would
never deny the Lord….Are also these others wrong, when they claim to be “Christian” without the baptism of the Holy Ghost (with speaking in tongues)… (see Acts 2:38) 33
Faith
James 2:14 What [cloth it] profit, my brethren, though a man say he hath faith, and have not works? can faith save him?
James 2:17 Even so faith, if it hath not works, is dead, being alone. James 2:18 Yea, a man may say, Thou hast faith, and I have works: shew me thy faith without thy works, and I will shew thee my faith by my works.
James 2:20 But wilt thou know, 0 vain man, that faith without works is dead?
There are many that teach that if you obey the Word of God, then you are trying to be saved by your own personal works. So they teach that you are saved no matter whether you obey or not. In other words they are saying that if Noah had not “by faith” gone into the ark, that he would have been saved anyway. But they are very confused. They don’t understand faith at all. It is because of faith that a person will obey the Word of God, accepting that God’s works on the cross is enough to remit sins (through Jesus NAME baptism).
See Acts 2:38. *
For a man to partake of salvation, through obedience to the Word of God, is NOT AT ALL a man trying to be saved by his own works, RATHER it is a man who through FAITH is obeying in order to apply the free gift of salvation to his own life..consider Naaman the leper, he almost disobeyed.*
II Kings 5:13 And his servants came near, and spake unto him, and said, My father, [if] the prophet had bid thee [do some] great thing, wouldest thou not have done [it]? how much rather then, when he saith to thee, Wash, and be clean?
II Kings 5:14 Then went he down, and dipped himself seven times in Jordan, according to the saying of the man of God: and his flesh came again like unto the flesh of a little child, and he was clean.
Now, Naaman was not healed until he dipped the seventh time!! Was he healed by his own WORKS??? OF COURSE NOT!! He was “saved” by FAITH through his obedience THROUGH the GRACE of God..If he had not obeyed, he would NOT have been healed, even though obedience was VERY EASY. Likewise YOU will NOT be saved if you don’t OBEY the word of God and apply the free gift of salvation to your OWN soul. When you repent of sins it’s GOD’S WORKS that enable you to do so, when one is baptized in Jesus NAME for the remission of sins it’s GOO’S WORKS that remits the sins through His shed blood on the cross. When a person is filled with the Holy Ghost and speaks in tongues IT’S GOD doing it. What I have just referred to is the birth of water (baptism) and the birth of the Spirit (the Holy Ghost baptism), Jesus spoke of this. 23

The Bible also teaches that holiness is essential for salvation. Hebrews 12:14 Follow peace with all [men], and holiness, without which no man shall see the Lord.
You must live a HOLY CLEAN life in order to be saved; and this is impossible EXCEPT through the POWER of the Holy Ghost. Notice that the same preachers that deny that a person can live above sin, are a130 the same preachers that deny tongues, and deny the importance of Jesus NAME baptism!!! They go to church they have a religious form, they go through the motion, BUT they don’t believe in POWER over sin, or POWER to speak in tongues, or POWER to live a HOLY separated, unspotted life. But, the Bible mentioned them….in the last days that they would come. *
II Timothy 3:5 Having a form of godliness, but denying the POWER thereof: from such turn away.
II Timothy 3:8 Now as Jannes and Jambres withstood Moses, so do these also RESIST the truth; men of corrupt minds, REPROBATE concerning the faith.
They have the FORM of Godliness, they have church services, BUT they deny the POWER…and they twist the scriptures that were written to SAINTS who had ALREADY OBEYED Acts 2;38, and they use these to deceive sinners into thinking that they are already saved. In Romans was written to the SAINTS at Rome, one of the churches that started in Acts. Remember Romans through Rev was written to Saints who were ALREADY in the Apostolic Church..they had ALREADY OBEYED Acts 2:38!!! These were letters giving instruction to the churches on how to continue on to be saved. Paul was very clear in his letter to the Galatian church concerning the subject of men changing the original APOSTOLIC doctrine.
Galatians 1:8 But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel unto you than that which we have preached unto you, let him be accursed.
So don’t believe these false preachers that try to modify the original plan, Paul knew that they would, it was even going on then.*
Romans 16:17 Now I beseech you, brethren, mark them which cause divisions and offences contrary to the DOCTRINE which ye have learned; and avoid them. (the only doctrine they had was the Acts 2:38 message)
Romans 16:18 For they that are such serve not our Lord Jesus Christ, but their own belly; and by GOOD WORDS and fair speeches DECEIVE the hearts of the simple. 35
Grace
Luke 17;26 (And as it was in the days of Not, so shall it be also in the days of the Son of man.)
24
Luke 17:27 (They did eat, they drank, they married wives, they were given in marriage, until the day that Not entered into the ark, and the flood came, and destroyed them all.i
Genesis 6:7 And the LORD said, I will destroy man whom I have created from the face of the earth; both man, and beast, and the creeping thing, and the fowls of the air; for it repenteth me that I have made them.
Genesis 6:8 But Noah found GRACE in the eyes of the LORD.
Now, the enemies of God would have us to believe that the GRACE of God means “Man doing nothing but believing (or CLAIMING to believe)…. Noah believed God; that is why he built the ark…Noah was SAVED BY GRACE, it was through GRACE that Noah was advised to OBEY GOD and build an ark…Was Noah saved by his own works?? NO! Noah was saved by the GRACE of God.
It is purely the GRACE of God that offers Repentance, Baptism in Jesus name, and the infilling of the Holy Ghost WITH the evidence of speaking in other tongues. The new testament plan of salvation,*
Acts 2:38 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.
Ephesians 2:8 For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: [it is] the gift of God:..
You are saved if you have the FAITH to obey and avail yourself of the free gift of salvation. It is GRACE that gives man the ability to repent of sin. It is GRACE that gives man the privilege to have all his past sins washed away in baptism in Jesus name. It is GRACE that a man can be filled with the Spirit of Jesus (the Baptism of the Holy Ghost)….It is the sermon preached at Pentecost, Acts 2:38, the new testament plan of salvation, for Jew and gentile alike…. *
36
The enemies of God with their “believe only heresy don’t like Acts 2:38, they don’t like “tongues”, they don’t really believe the word of God. They take verses written to SAINTS that had ALREADY OBEYED Acts 2:38/John 3:5 and try to build false doctrine that excludes Acts 2:38…but remember by GRACE Noah OBEYED God and was saved, and all others that obeyed were saved also. Those that disobeyed and were deceived, DIED by the hand of an angry Jesus. There were false teachers even in the early church days, preaching a perverted gospel
Galatians 1:6 I marvel that ye are so soon removed from him that called you into the grace of Christ unto another gospel:
Galatians 1:7 Which is not another; but there be some that trouble you, and would pervert the gospel of Christ.
Galatians 1:8 But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel unto you than that which we have preached unto you, let him be accursed.
Remember ALL the Apostles were present when Peter preached
Acts 2:38..Jesus had given Peter the keys to the kingdom..Acts 2:38 is the basic apostolic message…If your preacher is not preaching Acts 2;38 as the plan of salvation read Galatians 1:8,9, 37
Confessing Christ
25
I John 4:2 Hereby, now ye that Spirit of God: Every spirit that confesseth that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is of God:
I John 4:3 And every spirit that confesseth not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is not of God; and this is that [spirit] of Antichrist, whereof ye have heard that it should come; and even now already is it in the world.
II John 1:7 For many deceivers are entered into the world, who
confess not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh. This is a deceiver and an Antichrist.
Now, I ask, you to take, a moment and pray and ask Jesus to open our understanding concerning these verses
I pray that we can now see beyond the carnal surface interpretation” of these verses and see what
the Lord would have us to see.We have a lot of men throwing the name of Jesus around
every day, and those who have been recently exposed as totally false preachers, so what is the key to understanding these verses???
Well, it’s so simple, really!! We simply look at the definition of the word “Jesus”. Jesus means “Jehovah Savior” s0000 every spirit that confesseth not that Jehovah is come in the flesh is the Antichrist spirit..,
That is why the “trinity” is an Antichrist doctrine. They teach that a “second person” came in the flesh, they teach that Jesus is merely one of several separate persons (or gods)….So they don’t really believe that Jehovah came to earth “in the flesh”
You may also have noticed that the harlot daughters of the trinity
mother church are returning home to mama (National Council of Churches etc..) so there will be one
great world fellowship of trinitarians to Welcome the Antichrist to his throne Here
are several scriptures, of which, any one of them contradicts the “three separate person” trinity heresy: *
John 10:31 I and [my] Father are one.
John 14:9 Jesus saith unto him, Have I been so long time with you!, and yet hast not known me, Philip? he that hath seen the Father; and how sayest thou [then] , Shew us the Father?
I John 3:16 Hereby perceive we the love [of God], because he laid down his life for us: and we ought to lay down [our] lives for the brethren.
John 9:58 Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Before Abraham was, I am.
John 1:1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
John 1:2 The same was in the beginning with God.
John 1:3 All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made. 38
John 1:10 He was in the world, and the world was made by him, and the world knew him not.
John 1:11 He came unto his own, and his own received him not.
Malachi 3:1 Behold, I will send my messenger, and he shall prepare the way before me: and the Lord, whom ye seek, shall suddenly come to his 26 temple, even the messenger of the covenant, whom ye delight in: behold, he shall come, saith the LORD of hosts.
(You see the Jews knew that it would be the LORD coming to His temple)
Isaiah 45:21 Tell ye, and bring [them] near; yea, let them take counsel together: who hath declared this from ancient time? [who] hath told it from that time? [have] not I the LORD? and [there is] no God else beside me; a just God and a Saviour; [there is] none beside me.
NOTICE THESE TWO VERSES!!:
Isaiah 44:24 Thus saith the LORD, thy redeemer, and he that formed thee from the womb, I [am] the LORD that maketh all [things]; that stretcheth forth the heavens alone; that spreadeth abroad the earth by myself;
John 1:3 All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made.
Acts 9:5 And he said, Who art thou, Lord? And the Lord said, I am Jesus whom thou persecutest: [it is]
hard for thee to kick against the pricks. (Who did God say that he was91912!)
Acts 22:8 And I answered, Who art thou, Lord? And he said unto me, I am Jesus of Nazareth, whom thou persecutest.
(Who did God say that he was”?’) *
Acts 26:15 And I said, Who art thou, Lord? And he said, I am Jesus whom thou persecutest.
Revelation 22:12 And, behold, I come quickly; and my reward [is] with me, to give every man according as his work shall be. Revelation 22:13 I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end, the first and the last. Jesus is speaking here HE is GOD!! HE IS ALPHA & OMEGA!!’ * Revelation 22:14 Blessed [are] they that do his commandments, that they may have right to the tree of life, and may enter in through the gates into the city.
Revelation 22:15 For without [are] dogs, and sorcerers, and whoremongers, and murderers, and idolaters, and whosoever loveth and maketh a lie. 39
Heresy
Galatians 5:19 Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are [these]; Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness, Salatians 5:20 Idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, emulations, wrath, strife, seditions, HERESIES,
Galatians 5:21 Envyings, murders, drunkenness, revellings, and such like; of that which I tell you before, as I have also told [you] in time past, that they which do such things SHALL NOT INHERIT the kingdom of God. So we see that heresy is right up there with witchcraft! Hello??! We also must consider that this letter was to the CHURCH, it was written to CHRISTIANS to let them know that if they did certain things that they WOULD BE LOST. Now, this is not to say that these sins are unforgivable, but that anyone who allows these things to remain in their lives will NOT inherit heaven. This means that according to the Bible if two churches are preaching a different doctrine, then NO WAY could they both be going to heaven, ACCORDING TO THE BIBLE.
Now, the trinity claims to teach one god, yet, they teach three separate “persons”, that are co-equal and co-eternal, They teach that the Father, 27 son, and Holy Ghost are separate persons, rather than three ways that the ONE person Jesus revealed himself. In fact, they feel that they are wiser than the apostles who always baptized in Jesus name..and they merely “parrot” Matt 28:19, rather than obeying it, as the apostles did..You see, Jesus is the name of the Father”
John 5:43 (I am come in my Father’s name, and ye receive me not: if another shall come in his own name, him ye will receive.)
Jesus is the name of the son…and Jesus is the name of the Holy Ghost:
John 14:26 (But the Comforter, [which is] the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send IN MY NAME, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you. )
40
To OBEY Matt 28:19 the NAME of Jesus MUST be used in baptism. The trinitarian uses a separate “title” for each of the three “gods” when they baptise, they “parrot” Jesus words INSTEAD of obeying them. Also, if the father and Holy Ghost are two “separate persons” WHICH ONE IS REALLY JESUS’ DADDY ??!? We all know that the Father is Jesus’ dad, right?? But it was the Holy Ghost that overshadowed Mary!: *
Matthew 1:18 Now the birth of Jesus Christ was on this wise: When as his mother Mary was espoused to Joseph, before they came together, she was found with CHILD OF THE HOLY GHOST.
Oh my! trinitarian!! Which of your persons is really Jesus dad??? You see, the trinitarian is trying to fit God into their carnal understanding, not realizing that :
I Timothy 3:16 And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness: GOD WAS MANIFEST IN THE FLESH, justified in the Spirit, seen of angels, preached unto the Gentiles, believed on in the world, received up into glory.”
Jesus was not a “second person” but rather, God took on a physical body, he didn’t send a “junior god”.
John 2:19 Jesus answered and said unto them, (Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up.
John 2:21 But he spake of the TEMPLE OF HIS BODY.
So we see that Jesus raised himself from the dead.
Galatians 1:1 Paul, an apostle, (not of men, neither by man, but by Jesus Christ, and God the Father, who raised him from the dead;)
Oops, this says that the Father raised him!
Romans 8:11 But if the Spirit of him that raised up Jesus from the dead dwell in you, he that raised up Christ from the dead shall also quicken your mortal bodies by his Spirit that dwelleth in you.
Oh my ! oh my! This says the Spirit raised Jesus from the dead!! Now, do we have a Bible full of contradictions?? OR do we have a bunch of HERETIC false preachers, teaching a man made trinity..
Repent of Heresy! You CANNOT BE SAVED in HERESY, the trinity is HERESY! *
Galatians 1:8 But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other 28 gospel unto you than that which we have preached unto you, let him be accursed. 41
Revelation 1:7 Behold, he cometh with clouds; and every eye shall see him, and they [also] which pierced him: and all kindreds of the earth shall wail because of him. Even so, Amen. (Notice it says HIM not THEM)…
Revelation 1:8 I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the ending, saith the Lord, which is, and which was, and which is to come, the Almighty.
(Jesus IS the Almighty)….
Isaiah 43:11 I, [even] I, [am] the LORD; and beside me [there is] no saviour.
(God came to earth to be the saviour)….
Isaiah 45:21 Tell ye, and bring [them] near; yea, let them take counsel together: who hath declared this from ancient time? [who] hath told it from that time? [have] not I the LORD? and [there is] no God else beside me; a just God and a Saviour; [there is] none beside me.
(Trinity says there are three persons here)
Hosea 13:4 Yet I [am] the LORD thy God from the land of Egypt, and thou shalt know no god but me: for [there is] no saviour beside me- (God is the only savior)
John 14:9 Jesus saith unto him, Have I been so long time with you, and yet past thou not known me, Philip? he that bath seen me hath seen the Father; and how sayest thou [then], Shew us the Father?
(Of course Jesus IS the Father, come to be the saviour)
Ephesians 4:5 One Lord, one faith, one baptism,
(“Which faith are you?” ever heard that?)
Hebrews 13:8 Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and to day, and for ever. (Jesus has always been Alpha and Omega)
Isaiah 9:6 For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace.
(This says that the child to be born is The Mighty God) 42
The “Daddy Person”?
Since the trinitarians propose that God is made up of three separate persons that are co-eternal and co-equal and they use such verses as the account of creation when God said “let us make man…” (of course God
29
was really talking with the angels) to prove their theory of three “god beings” or “persons”…
I have a question.
Which of the “god persons” is really Jesus daddy?
Is it god #1 (the father person)
OR is it god # 3 (the holy ghost person)
(Since I assume they nelegate Jesus to being god #2 “the second person of the trinity” right?) so which is it?
god person #1? Or god person #3? And to make the question even harder, if it was both gods that visited Mary that night, which god came first or did they come as buddies? It must be terribly embarrassing to be a trinitarian with all those Bibles floating around where folks can read them…. 43
Accepting Christ
There are many today who claim to have “accepted Christ as their personal savior” and they claim to be headed to a heaven that is taught by the Bible. But, the Bible teaches that those who try to enter heaven any other way than the Bible way, will be lost. *
John 10:1 (Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that entereth not by the door into the sheepfold, but climbeth up some other way, the same is a thief and a robber.) : By the way, the Bible makes NO MENTION WHATSOEVER of “accepting Christ as your personal savior” that is a MAN MADE FALSE DOCTRINE. People are being taught everything from “Just flash your headlights twice” (in the drive in “church”) to “walk the Roman road and make a public profession” or “Shake the preachers hand” as though these activities could even save a gnat! The plan of salvation taught by Jesus’ disciples is” *
Acts 2:38 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.
Acts 2:39 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.
Note the 39th verse “as many as the Lord our God shall call” Now, if your preacher is teaching anything other than the apostles doctrine (Acts 2:38), then YOUR BIBLE says to “let him be accursed”
Galatians 1:8 But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel unto you than that which we have preached unto you, let him be accursed.
Note, the one that they had received was clearly Acts 2:38. So, do you really think that a man that God calls accursed can really be trusted?
Matthew 15:14 (Let them alone: they be blindleaders of the blind. And if the blind lead the blind, both shall fall into the ditch.) 30
Luke 6:39 (And he spake a parable unto them, Can the blind lead the blind? shall they not both fall into the ditch?)
The ditch is hell, folks. If you’re following a false preacher you will BOTH end up in hell. How can a man, accursed of God, tell you how to be saved. Do you really think that God will honor a LIE just to save a bunch of people that chose tradition instead of the word of God? 44
II Corinthians 11:14 And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light.
II Corinthians 11:15 Therefore [it is] no great thing if his ministers also be transformed as the ministers of righteousness; whose end shall be according to their works.
So, Satan’s ministers CLAIM to be ministers of righteousness… They are of the world, and the worldly LOVE to hear them preach.
II Peter 2:17 These are wells without water, clouds that are carried with a tempest; to whom the mist of darkness is reserved for ever.
II Peter 2:18 For when they speak great swelling [words] of vanity, they allure through the lusts of the flesh, [through much] wantonness, those that were clean escaped from them who live in error.
Romans 16:18 For they that are such serve not our Lord Jesus Christ, but their own belly; and by good words and fair speeches deceive the hearts of the simple. If you obey HIS word, then, and only then, have you accepted Christ. The multitudes who claim to have accepted him, while rejecting his word are merely deceived..OR WORSE:
II Thessalonians 2:10 And with all deceitfulness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved.
II Thessalonians 2:11 And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie:
II Thessalonians 2:12 That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness. God WILL not only let truth haters believe a lie, he will even send them STRONG DELUSION…Read 2 :12 again, Who does God say will be damned?
Matthew 7:13 (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:
Matthew 7:14 (Because strait [is] the gate, and narrow [is] the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it.
Matthew 7:15 (Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep’s clothing, but
inwardly they are ravening wolves.)
So, these denominations with their broad roads, and many who claim to be saved…Yet they have abandoned Biblical salvation..Is the Bible right?
I mean, really folks, these false preachers are going to their pulpits with a book under their arm that teaches that they, and those that hear them, are damned. 31
45
Hair & Apparel
I Timothy 2:9 In like manner also, that women adorn themselves in modest apparel, with shamefacedness and sobriety; not with broided hair, or gold, or pearls, or costly array;
I Timothy 2:10 But (which becometh women professing godliness) with good works. Shamefacedness means “plain faced, not “painted up” in the worldly style, not wearing gold or pearls etc…Modest apparel also means clothes that cover the body, that do not expose nakedness, that do not generate lust, modest apparel: Christians don’t wear shorts they don’t expose their bodies by mixed bathing (swimming). They don’t run the streets naked with the heathen (remember, to Adam & Eve the fig leaf was sufficient, BUT GOD MADE THEM COATS! THE FIG LEAF WASN’T ENOUGH!
I Corinthians 11:5 But every woman that prayeth or prophesieth with [her] head uncovered dishonoureth her head: for that is even all one as if she were shaven.
I Corinthians 11:6 For if the woman be not covered, let her also be shorn: but if it be a shame for a woman to be shorn or shaven, let her be covered.
Now 11:15 says what the covering is, it’s HAIR, so it’s saying that if she is going to cut her hair, she might as well be shaved bald, but since it would be a shame for her to be shaved bald, let her remain covered (covered with hair, UNCUT, UNTRIMMED). *
I Corinthians 11:14 Doth not even nature itself teach you, that, if a man have long hair, it is a shame unto him?
I Corinthians 11:15 But if a woman have long hair, it is a glory to her: for [her] hair is given her for a covering.
* No woman that *really* loves God with all her heart, soul, and strength (which is part of the first commandment), is going to brazenly trim off her glory to fit the worldly styles * 46
Deuteronomy 22:5 The woman shall not wear that which pertaineth unto a man, neither shall a man put on a woman’s garment: for ALL that do,so [are] abomination unto the LORD thy God.
Women who wear pants, pantsuits, or any other form of trousers are abomination to God just as much as men who wear dresses. *
II Timothy 3:16 All scripture [is] given by inspiration of God, and [is] profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness:
ALL SCRIPTURE!!! ALL SCRIPTURE!!!
II Timothy 3:17 That the man of God may be perfect, thoroughly furnished unto all good works.
II Timothy 4:2 Preach the word; be instant in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all longsuffering and doctrine. 32
II Timothy 4:3 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;
II Timothy 4:4 And they shall turn away [their] ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables.
It’s always been the devil’s business to convince men that God’s word doesn’t really mean what it says; likewise it’s the job of the false preacher to keep the “damned” comfortable and secure in their fake “salvation” 47
Holiness
I Corinthians 11:14 Doth not even nature itself teach you, that, if a man have long hair, it is a shame unto him?
I Corinthians 11:15 But if a woman have long hair, it is a glory to her: for [her] hair is given her for a covering.
What true Christian woman is going to remove a portion of her glory” to conform to the worldly dictates?
I Timothy2:9 In like manner also, that women adorn themselves in modest apparel, with shamefacedness and sobriety; not with broided hair, or gold, or pearls, or costly array;
I Timothy 2:10 But (which becometh women professing godliness) with good works. “Shamefaced” = “Plain faced” Modest = covering the body, not partially naked. *
I Timothy 2:11 Let the woman learn in silence with all subjection.
I Peter 3:3 Whose adorning let it not be that outward [adorning] of plaiting the hair, and of wearing of gold, or of putting on of apparel; I Peter 3:4 But [let it be] the hidden man of the heart, in that which is not corruptible, [even the ornament] of a meek and quiet spirit, which is in the sight of God of great price.
I Peter 3:5 For after this manner in the old time the holy women also, who trusted in God, adorned themselves, being in subjection unto their own husbands:
I Peter 3:6 Even as Sara obeyed Abraham, calling him lord: whose daughters ye are, as long as ye do well, and are not afraid with any amazement. 48
Deuteronomy 22:5 The woman shall not wear that which pertaineth unto a man, neither shall a man put on a woman’s garment: for all that do so [are] abomination unto the LORD thy God.
** If it was abomination then, it is abomination now…*
Psalms 101:3 I will set no wicked thing before mine eyes: I hate the work of them that turn aside; [it] shall not cleave to me.
* TV, Movies etc.. *
Romans 1:32 Who knowing the judgment of God, that they which commit such 33 things are worthy of death, not only do the same, but have pleasure in them that do them.
Matthew 6:21 For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also. Matthew 6:22 The light of the body is the eye; if therefore thine eye be single, thy whole body shall be full of light.
Matthew 6:23 But if thine eye be evil, thy whole body shall be full of darkness. If therefore the light that is in thee be darkness, how great [is] that darkness!
I Corinthians 11:6 For if the woman be not covered, let her also be shorn: but if it be a shame for a woman to be shorn or shaven, let her be covered.
** If a woman trims her hair she might as well shave it all in the sight of God *
I Corinthians 11:7 For a man indeed ought not to cover [his] head, forasmuch as he is the image and glory of God: but the woman is the glory of the man.
I Corinthians 11:8 For the man is not of the woman; but the woman of the man.
I Corinthians 11:9 Neither was the man created for the woman; but the woman for the man.
I Corinthians 11;11 Nevertheless neither is the man without the woman, neither the woman without the man, in the Lord.
I Corinthians 11:15 But if a woman have long hair, it is a glory to her: for [her] hair is given her for a covering.
* What is a woman’s covering? Her hair. 49
Seeing Truth
Did you ever wonder why some Biblical truths are just uncomprehendable to some people? Well, it was designed to be that way”
Deuteronomy 29:4 Yet the LORD hath not given you an heart to perceive, and eyes to see, and ears to hear, unto this day.
Jeremiah 5:21 Hear now this, 0 foolish people, and without understanding; which have eyes, and see not; which have ears, and hear” not :
Matthew 5:18 For “verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled.
Matthew 13:11 I answered and said unto them, Because it is given
unto you to know the mysteries of the kingdom of heaven, but to them it is not given.
Matthew 13:12 For whosoever bath, to him shall be given, and he shall have more abundance: but whosoever hath not, from him shall be taken away even that he bath.
Matthew 13:13 Therefore speak I to them in parables: because they seeing not; and hearing they hear not, neither do they understand. Matthew 13:14 And in them is fulfilled the prophecy of Esaias, which saith, By hearing ye shall hear, and shall not understand; and seeing ye shall see, and shall not perceive:
Matthew 13:15 For this people’s heart is waxed gross, and [their] ears are dull of hearing, and their eyes they have closed; lest at any time 34 they should see with [their] eyes and hear with [their] ears, and should understand with [their] heart, and should be converted, and I should heal them.
Matthew 13:16 But blessed [are] your eyes, for they see: and your ears, for they hear,
Matthew 16:17 And Jesus answered and said unto him, Blessed art thou, Simon Bar-jona: for flesh and blood hath not revealed [it] unto thee, but my Father which is in heaven.
John 1:5 And the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not.
John 1:13 Which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.50
John 3:5 Jesus answered, 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.
Acts 2:38 also contains the elements of “water” and “Spirit” **
John 3:6 That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit.
Now John 3:6 should dispel the myth that the “birth of water” was the natural human birth. (The birth of water is baptism in water in the name of Jesus Christ see Acts 2:38,39)**
John 12:40 He hath blinded their eyes, and hardened their heart; that they should not see with [their] eyes, nor understand with [their] heart, and be converted, and I should heal them.
II Corinthians 4:4 In whom the god of this world hath blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine unto them.
I John 5:18 We know that whosoever is born of God sinneth not; but he that is begotten of God keepeth himself, and that wicked one toucheth him not.
Some people will begrudgirgly “tolerate” truth, but they don’t love it, it is an annoyance to them to have certain truths preached **
II Thessalonians 2:10 And with all deceitfulness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved.
II Thessalonians 2:11 And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie:
II Thessalonians :12 That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness.
II Thessalonians 2:13 But we are bound to give thanks alway to God for you, brethren beloved of the Lord, because God hath from the beginning chosen you to salvation through sanctification of the Spirit and belief of the truth:
This seems to say that salvation hinges on belief of the truth, so, once again, I submit that if 2 churches are preaching different doctrines then NO WAY could they both really be saved. (and maybe neither one!).**

I John 5:7
I hope to point out a couple of things about these “pet verses” that the trinitarians (in their carnality) believe supports a trinity.
First let us notice that I John 5:8 refers to three separate things that simply are in agreement. I John 5:7 refers to three “that bear record” yet ARE ONE (not three).
I personally am on record in different capacities; I am a father, I am also a son, and I am a husband, but I am one; there is only one of me. I am not three separate persons who agree with one another…
Notice how the trinitarian will “claim to believe in only one god, yet, they use plural terms “they” etc…It is basic trinitarian teaching that “these three are THREE; not one”..oh I know they try to qualify the teaching by rambling on about how the three are in agreement “as one”..But the Bible says “these three ARE ONE”…In other words ONE God (or person) manifested HIMself these three ways. NOT three separate gods (Senior, Junior and birdie) that happen to agree with one another. Look closely at these verses and PRAY! *
I John 5:7 For there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Son, and the Holy Ghost: and these three are one.
I John 1 5:8 And there are three that bear witness in earth, the Spirit, and the water, and the blood: and these three agree in one. 52
Matthew 28:18 And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth.
Matthew 28:19 Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost:
Here is another pet verse” of the Roman heresy…they just love to parrot and repeat in baptism (yet they don’t obey it, they just recite it; it is one thing to recite a verse, quite another to OBEY it)’ Jesus commanded that a NAME(singular) be used in baptism. We then need one name that fits the offices of Father, Son, and Holy Ghost. THAT NAME IS JESUS.
The apostles that heard Jesus speak Matt 28:19 always baptized repentant believers in water IN JESUS NAME.
Acts 2:38; Acts 8:14-17; Acts 10:47,48; Acts 19:3-7 (RE-Baptised)
Another point to notice in Mat 28:18, Jesus claims to have ALL POWER (in heaven and earth) s000 if there are any other “god persons” they are powerless, and we need not concern ourselves about them. Jesus is the name of the Father, Jesus is the name of the Son, Jesus is the name of the Holy Ghost. (these three are REALLY only ONE) *
Colossians 2:8 Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition of men, after the rudiments of the world, and not after Christ.
Colossians 2:9 For in him dwelleth all the fullness of the Godhead bodily.
36
Colossians 2:10 And ye are complete in him, which is the head of all principality and power: (COMPLETE IN HIM, NOT THEW!)
Jesus Christ==> Jehovah God, in the flesh, in person. * 53
Jesus Name Baptism
I’m writing this in response to a rather common argument from those that oppose water baptism in Jesus name as commanded in Acts 2:38,Acts 10:48, Acts 19:5, Acts 22:16, Matt 28:19. Oh yes BUT here are some verses that prove that Jesus is the NAME of the Father…John 5:43, Heb 1:3,4(If you inherit your name from your father you have your father’s name), John 17:26. Here’s one that proves that Jesus is the name of the Holy Ghost,
Jn 14:26.
Many say that the different pronunciation or translation of the name of Jesus somehow nullifies all the scriptures about the importance of the name of Jesus. Different languages do pronounce the name of Jesus differently, spanish comes to mind as an example. However we should keep in mind that is was God who created the different languages so that different people saying the same thing would use different syllables to say it.When a spanish speaking person says Jesus, it will sound different than when I say Jesus, this would not nullify the fact that we had both just said Jesus.
The Bible, put a great emphasis and importance on the “name” in Acts 4: 12.
There is no other name whereby we MUST be saved; Mat 24:5, Mat 12:21 (that gentiles will trust in his NAME); Acts 3:16 the word of God is full of references that prove the importance of the NAME, which is Jesus, it is a privilege (paid for in precious blood) to be baptized in Jesus name and have ones sins remitted
Acts 2:41, Acts 22:16, Acts 19:3 (Rebaptized in Jesus name).
How do you “put on Christ? “:
“For as many of you as have been baptized into Christ have put on Christ.” -Galatians 3:27.
54
Many false preachers (accursed of God) teach that baptism is merely “An outward profession of inward faith” or some such nonsense… It is a lie from the very pits of hell, a trick of the devil to keep people in their sins. Water baptism is the re-birth of Water referred to in John 3:5. *
Mark 16:16 He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned.
Acts 2:38 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.
Acts 2:41 There they that gladly received his word were baptized: and the same day there were added [unto them] about three thousand souls. 37
Acts 10:45 And they of the circumcision which believed were astonished, as many as came with Peter, because that on the Gentiles also was poured out the gift of the Holy Ghost.
Acts 10:46 For they heard them speak with tongues, and magnify God. Then answered Peter,
Acts 10:47 Can any man forbid water, that these should not be baptized, which have received the Holy Ghost as well as we?
Acts 10:48 And he commanded them to be baptized in the name of the Lord. Then prayed they him to tarry certain days.
Acts 19:4 There said Paul, John verily baptized with the baptism of repentance, saying unto the people, that they should believe on him which should come after him, that is, on Christ Jesus.
Acts 19:5 When they heard [this], they were baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus.
Acts 22:16 And now why tarriest thou? arise, and be baptized,and wash away thy sins, calling on the name of the Lord.
Sins are washed away in Jesus’ name baptism
Romans 6:3 Know ye not, that so many of us as were baptized into Jesus Christ were baptized into his death?
Galatians 3:27 For as many of you as have been baptized into Christ have put on Christ. 55
God’s Warning
Col 2:7 Rooted and built up in him, and established in the faith,as ye have been taught, abounding therein with thanksgiving.
Col 2:8 Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition of men, after the rudiments of the world, and not after Christ.
Col 2:9 For in him dwelleth all the fullness of the Godhead bodily. Col 2:10 And ye are complete in him, which is the head of all principality and power: It is good that the Lord saw fit to warn us against trinitarians and the like, that teach the tradition of men. They simply don’t believe the Bible. They have even admitted that they don’t believe that Jesus fully God. Notice how verse 10 says “HIM” not “them”. These verses clearly teach one God, the confusion exists in the mind of the trinitarian. They quote verses that they don’t understand and have to add a word here and there to try to make the Bible “fit”. I prefer to believe the word of God in it’s pure form.
Isaiah 4:6 Thus saith the Lord King of Israel, and his redeemer
the LORD of hosts; I [am] the first, and I [am] the last; and beside me [there is] no God.
Isaiah 44:8 Fear ye not, neither be afraid: have not I told thee from that time, and have declared [it]? ye [are]
even my witnesses. Is there a God beside me? yea, [there is] no God; I know not [any].
Don’t you think that if there were any other “persons” or gods here, that God would have known about it. Who is the liar? God or the 38 trinitarian?
Isaiah 45:5 I [am] the LORD, and [there is] none else, [there is] no God beside me: I girded thee, though thou hast not known me: 56
Isaiah 45:21 Tell ye, and bring [them] near; yea, let them take counsel together: who bath declared this from ancient time? [who] hath told it from that time? [have] not I the LORD? and [there is] no God else beside me; a just God and a Saviour; [there is] none beside me.
Hosea 13:4 Yet I [am] the LORD thy God from the land of Egypt, and thou shalt know no god but me: for [there is] no saviour beside me.
Isaiah 44:24 Thus saith the LORD, thy redeemer, and he that formed thee from the womb, I [am] the LORD that maketh all [things]; that stretcheth forth the heavens alone; that spreadeth abroad the earth by myself;
Here this teaches that God created the earth by Himself.:
John 14:9 Jesus saith unto him, Have I been so long time with you, and yet hast thou not known me, Philip? he that hath seen me hath seen the Father; and how sayest thou [then], Shew us the Father?
Matthew 13:13 Therefore speak I to them in parables: because they seeing see not; and hearing they hear not, neither do they understand.
Isaiah 9:6 For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and
the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace.
Jesus is God, come to the world, in the flesh. I hope the reader can see the ravings of the trinitarian for what they are. They even admit that they don’t believe that Jesus is fully God, yet they claim to be Christian. 57
Tongues
I am writing this to attempt to clear up some of the misunderstanding concerning “tongues”. IT IS ESSENTIAL to understand that there are TWO COMPLETELY DIFFERENT KINDS OF TONGUES.
#1: Other Tongues and #2: The Gift of Tongues (Unknown tongues). When the 120 in the upper room were filled with the Holy Ghost they spoke in other tongues(1).
Other tongues(#1) WAS UNDERSTOOD by men (Acts 2:6). In I Cor 14:2 it says that when a man speaks in “unknown tongues (#2) “that NO MAN UNDERSTANDS him. In I Cor 12:29,39 Paul is speaking concerning “the Gift of Tongues (unknown tongues #2)” when he asks Do all speak with tongues(2)?”…The group that he was addressing all had spoken in other tongues (#1)” when they had received the Holy Ghost. Though ALL that receive the Holy Ghost DO SPEAK IN OTHER TONGUES(#1). Of these not everyone will be used in the “Gift of Tongues (#2)”. Every new-testament Christian will speak in “other tongues (#1)”, but every Christian will not be used in the “Gift of tongues(#2)” 39
Other tongues (#1) is, however, only the initial evidence that a person has been “reborn of the Spirit”. It is not an end unto itself, but rather the beginning of a Christian life that should go “on to perfection” and manifest the full “fruit of the Spirit” in due season. Also essential is repentance from sin and baptism in water in the
NAME of Jesus. (Acts 2:38) Everyone in the New Testament (including Mary the mother of Jesus) spoke in “other tongues (#1)” when they received the Holy Ghost. 58
False Doctrine
Now I beseech you, brethren, mark them which cause divisions and offences contrary to the doctrine which ye have learned; and avoid them. For they that are such serve not our Lord Jesus Christ, but their own belly; and by good words and fair speeches deceive the hearts of the simple. (Romans 16: 17-18) (written to the apostolic church at Rome)
But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel unto you than that which we have preached unto you, let him be ACCURSED. (Galatians 1:8) (written to the apostolic Christians in the Galatian church)
SO WHAT DID THE APOSTLES TEACH?
1) Acts 2:1-4…”And they were ALL filled with the Holy Ghost and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance.” (This was in the upper room where 120, including MARY the mother of Jesus, were gathered Acts 1:14-15). Many false preachers teach that “tongues were just for the 12 apostles”. Ever heard that? *
2) Acts 2:38. “Then Peter said unto them, repent and be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost”. The next verse mentions that this promise is to “as many as the Lord our God shall call.”.,.most false preachers do not baptise in Jesus name they just use “titles” *
3)Acts 8: 15-17 (Samaria) “Who, when they were come down, prayed for them that they might receive the Holy Ghost: (For as yet he was fallen on none of them: only they were baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus.) Then they laid their hands on them, and they received the Holy Ghost.” Many false preachers teach that you automatically have the Holy Ghost when you first “believe on the Lord” ever heard that one?
4) Acts 10:44-48 (First gentiles saved) “And they of the circumcision (Jews) which believed were astonished, as many as came with Peter, because that on the gentiles also was poured out the gift of the Holy Ghost. FOR THEY HEARD THEM SPEAK WITH TONGUES, and magnify God. Then answered Peter. Can any man forbid water that these should not be baptized which have received the Holy Ghost as well as well as we? And he commanded them to be baptized in the name of the Lord.” False preachers teach people that they already have the Holy Ghost even though they don’t even believe in tongues..ever heard that one *
5) See also Acts i9:1-6…Galatians 3:27…Acts 22:16
“As we said before, so say I again, If ANY MAN preach any other gospel unto you than that ye have received, let him be ACCURSED.”(Galatians 1:9) 59 40 Other tongues (#1) is, however, only the initial evidence that a person has been “reborn of the Spirit”. It is not an end unto itself, but rather the beginning of a Christian life that should go “on to perfection” and manifest the full “fruit of the Spirit” in due season. Also essential is repentance from sin and baptism in water in the NAME of Jesus. (Acts 2:38) Everyone in the New Testament (including Mary the mother of Jesus) spoke in “other tongues (#1)” when they received the
