| Publisher Description: OVER THE YEARS WE HAVE MADE A MOCKERY OT OF THE REAL REASON THAT Jesus came to the planet to begin with, we have placed a banner of selfishness over the will of God, that reads the presence of God is all mine and for no one else, we are a sin born people, in other words, there is nothing you have to do to inherit the sinful life, you just have to be born, once you begin to think for yourself, that's when the trouble begins, why? Because that's when you have to choose right from wrong, and if you have not been taught how to correctly choose, you will choose Satan every time. So, here's the big question; do you think Jesus owns you, or do you think that you own Jesus? You see, when we come into the world many of us come in thinking that the world evolves around us and we are the center of attention, but the truth is far from that, we did not create God, God created us, we are the servants of God, not God is our servant, even though Jesus did serve us when he walked the earth. Over the years we have made a mockery of the ideas of the basis for understanding concerning what is true salvation, what was the real reason came to the earth? Why did he come speaking mainly to those who were unsaved and unbelievers? Why is it that the only people he appointed as Apostles and disciples were sinful people? As Adam and Eve were sinless, through them came all sin. At the time of Adam and Eve there was no law, just one rule, "don't eat from the tree in the center of the Garden" that was the only rule, so that was the only place that Satan could approach with any kind of falsification of the spoken word and will of God, there was no written law, and there was no need to position police officers for there were none. As pulpit leaders, some have commercialized even salvation to the point where it seems as if the only way to salvation is through monetary gifts to the pastor or spiritual leader. This is not salvation, salvation is a free gift and the only way to get it is through the Holy Spirit which then directs you to Jesus who is salvation, it does not come in a box, it does not come with a block of instructions on how to use it or how to put it into effect, however it does come with a manual on why it is needed and what God expects of you once you have experienced true salvation, that manual is called the Bible. I have found out that real obedience in salvation has very little to nothing to do with the church at large, but everything to do with Jesus Christ and the Kingdom of God. do we really need salvation? Yes. can we get it at the local church? Yes. do we have to be there when the spirit of salvation hits? No, this is the point is misguidance through the years. the power of salvation is easier received that first thought, I once believed that it was a bunch of classes, and then baptism, then the right hand of fellowship, then the lay ministry appointing us to the presence of the Holy Spirit, but then I found out that this is man's idea of what salvation looks like, not Gods, it is not what Jesus, nor John the Baptist taught during their ministry, the Apostle Paul didn't even do this, this way. Are the classes important? Yes, the classes should come after the baptism, not before, if they come and be baptized and we never see them again, that is between them and God. |
