- False Salvation | Answers 4 Saints
False Salvation God cannot stand the prayers of anyone who disobeys his Law.Proverbs 28:9 Is Simple Salvation the Truth? False Salvation You were born into a ready made religion Can a Christian be Unconverted? Real Salvation 4 signs of a True Christian A true sign that Christians recognize Yeshua is our only Savior, therefore God exalted him to the highest place and gave him the name that is above every name, for, “Everyone who calls on the name of Yeshua will be saved.” True Christians keep the Law of God. True Christians walk as Yeshua walked and lived. True Christians must overcome sin. Spiritual Blindness The spiritually blind hear the truth, but they cannot see what it means. They cannot see the “big picture” of salvation, and they are unable to see how it applies to their own life. They have trouble confessing the truth because they have difficulty believing what they cannot see. For it is by grace [God’s remarkable compassion and favor drawing you to Christ] that you have been saved [actually delivered from judgment and given eternal life] through faith. And this [salvation] is not of yourselves [not through your own effort], but it is the [undeserved, gracious] gift of God; What are the 18 steps to salvation? Hear the Gospel. (Matthew 4:17John 8:32) Believe the Gospel (Hebrews 11:6, John 20:31) Repent of past sins (Luke 13:3, Acts 17:30) Confess faith in Jesus Christ (Romans 10:10, Matthew 10:32) Be Baptized (Galatians 3:27, Mark 16:16, Acts 2:38) Be faithful unto death (Revelation 2:10) For all who obey him eternal salvation Hebrews 5:9 Whoever claims to live in him must live as Jesus did.1 John 2:6 But don't just listen to God's word. You must do what it says. Otherwise, you are only fooling yourselves. James 1:2 And if anyone does not have the Spirit of Christ, they do not belong to Christ. Romans 8:1 We are witnesses of these things and so is the Holy Spirit, who is given by God to those who obey him.” Acts 5:32 “whoever calls on the name of the LORD shall be saved.Romans 10:13-15 For But if thou wouldest enter into life, keep the commandments. Matthew 19:16-26 That whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have eternal life…John 3:15,16 For we live by faith, not by sight. (Hebrews 11:6) And without faith it is impossible to please God because anyone who comes to him must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who earnestly seek him.2 Corinthians 5:7 And anyone who believes in God’s Son has eternal life. Anyone who doesn’t obey the Son will never experience eternal life but remains under God’s angry judgment.” John 3: Jesus replied, “Very truly I tell you, no one can see the kingdom of God unless they are born again.”John 3:3 So you see, faith by itself isn’t enough. Unless it produces good deeds, it is dead and useless.James 2:17-23 Barns Group survey. "Believers don't care what the truth Is, or care what Yehovah desires from us. We are afraid of looking into, it because it will draw a line in the sand, we know we don't want to make those decisions because at the end of the day, we want what we want, we are comfortable with our lives we are comfortable out traditions that are man-made. But you have a thought that pops into your head that's not what it means to me. The issue is it doesn't matter to you it matters to Yehovah He is the one being worshiped." The problem facing the church is not that people lack a complete set of beliefs the problem is that have a full state of beliefs in mind, which they think are consistent with biblical teachings, and they are neither open to being proven wrong nor learning new insights. The bottom line is among both clergy and laity. Revelation 22:14 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. Acts 5:32 We are witnesses of these things, and so is the Holy Spirit, whom God has given to those who obey Him.” 3

Notice that following repentance is the remission of sins, which baptism signifies, symbolically dying to sin and resurrection to a new life. The only way you can enter the Kingdom of God is by being born again, thru repentance and baptism. Baptism/The Holy Spirit Batèm / Sentespri a Remake ke apre repantans se padon peche yo, ki batèm vle di, senbolikman mouri nan peche ak rezirèksyon nan yon nouvo lavi. Sèl fason ou ka antre nan Wayòm Bondye a se lè w fèt ankò, grasa repantans ak batèm. Lè yon moun soti nan dlo a, tout peche w yo retire, epi w resevwa don Sentespri a. Li pral anseye w epi ede w suiv lalwa Bondye a. Vèsè kap vini yo pwouve ou pa ka resevwa lespri a sòf si ou vrèman repanti, sispann peche epi tounen vin jwenn Tora Jewova a. Peche se transgresyon lalwa. Jan 3:5 "Sa m'ap di nou la a, se vre wi: si yon moun pa fèt ankò, li pa ka wè Peyi Wa ki nan Bondye." 4 Nikodèm di li: “Ki jan yon moun ka fèt lè li fin vye granmoun? Èske l ka antre yon dezyèm fwa nan vant manman l pou l fèt? 5 Jezi reponn li: Sa m ap di nou la a, se vre wi: si yon moun pa fèt nan dlo ak nan Lespri Bondye a, li pa kapab antre nan wayòm Bondye a. 6 Sa ki fèt nan kò a se lachè, e sa ki fèt nan Lespri a se lespri. 7 Pa sezi paske mwen te di ou: Ou dwe fèt yon lòt fwa. 8 Van an soufle kote l vle, ou tande bri l, men ou pa konnen kote l soti, ni kote l ale. Konsa, se pou tout moun ki fèt nan Lespri Bondye a.” Matye 3:1 ¶ Lè sa a, Jan Batis rive nan dezè a Jide 2 di, "Repanti, paske Peyi Wa ki nan syèl la toupre." Jan 3:22 Apre sa, Jezi ak disip li yo rive nan peyi Jide a. Se la li te pase yon ti tan ak yo, li t'ap batize. 23 Jan te batize tou nan Enon toupre Salim, paske te gen anpil dlo la; ak moun nou ap vini epi yo t ap batize— Matye 4:17 Depi lè sa a, Jezi te kòmanse preche: "Repanti, paske Peyi Wa ki nan syèl la toupre." Acts 2:37 Lè pèp la tande sa, yo pran kè yo nan kè yo, yo mande Pyè ansanm ak lòt apot yo: Frè m' yo, kisa pou nou fè? 38 Pyè reponn: “Repanti epi batize nou chak nan non Jezi Mesi a pou nou padonnen peche nou yo, epi n ap resevwa don Sentespri a. 39 Pwomès sa a se pou ou, pou pitit ou yo ak pou tout moun ki byen lwen yo, pou tout moun Jewova, Bondye nou an, pral rele pou li.” …40 Li te temwaye ak anpil lòt pawòl, e li te ankouraje yo: “Sole anba jenerasyon kòwonpi sa a.” 41 Moun ki te aksepte mesaj li a te batize, e jou sa a te vin ajoute anviwon twamil (3.000) moun ki te kwè yo. 47 Lwanj Bondye e jwi favè tout pèp la. Chak jou, Jewova te ajoute moun k ap sove yo nan kantite yo. Menm jan an tou, Pòl anseye mesye Atèn yo: Acts 17:30 Vrèmanvre, tan sa yo nan inyorans Bondye te neglije, men kounye a kòmande tout moun toupatou pou yo repanti, paske li te fikse yon jou kote li pral jije mond lan nan jistis pa moun li te òdone. Li te bay tout asirans sa a nan leve soti vivan li pami mò yo. Matye 3:16 16 Lè Jezi fin batize, imedyatman Jezi soti sot nan dlo a. epi gade, syèl la te ouvri pou li, e li te wè Lespri Bondye a desann tankou yon pijon epi li desann sou li. 17 Epi, toudenkou, yon vwa soti nan syèl la, li di: “Sa a se Pitit Gason Byennene m nan, ki fè m plezi.” Mark 1:15 Pawòl Yeshua a vini nan fòm yon kòmandman ijan: "Lè a rive vre, ak wayòm Bondye a rive. Repanti, epi kwè nan levanjil la." Nonsèlman Kris la vin anonse Wayòm Bondye a ki pral vini byento a, an patikilye bay moun Bondye rele yo (Jan 6:44), men tou pou l prepare moun ki chwazi yo pou responsablite espirityèl yo kounye a ak nan Wayòm nan. Lespri Sen an te resevwa nan Efèz Travay 19:4 Pòl te esplike : “ Batèm Jan se te yon batèm repantans. Li te di pèp la pou yo kwè nan Sila a k ap vini apre li a, sa vle di nan Yeshua.” 5 Lè yo tande sa, yo te batize nan non Jezi Mesi a. 6 Epi, lè Pòl te mete men l sou yo, Lespri Sen an te desann sou yo, yo te pale an lang epi yo te pwofetize.… Batèm Sòl la Acts 9:15 Men, Seyè a di li: Ale! Paske, nonm sa a se enstriman mwen chwazi pou pote non mwen bay moun lòt nasyon yo, wa yo ak moun pèp Izrayèl yo. 16 M ap montre l konbyen li dwe soufri pou non mwen!” 17 Se konsa, Ananyas pati, li antre nan kay la. Apre sa, li mete men l sou li, li di: “Frè Sòl, Seyè a, Jezi, ki te parèt devan w sou wout ou t ap vwayaje a, te voye m pou w ka reprann je w e pou w ranpli Lespri Sen an.”18 yon fwa yon bagay tankou echèl tonbe nan je l ', epi li reprann je l'. Apre sa, li leve, li batize. 19 Apre li fin manje, li reprann fòs. Filip ak enuk Etyopyen an Acts: 8:34 Lè sa a, nonm lan di Filip: M'ap mande ou ki moun ki pwofèt la di sa, sou tèt li oswa sou yon lòt moun? 35 Lè sa a, Filip louvri bouch li, epi kòmanse ak ekriti sa a, li di l 'bon nouvèl la konsènan Jezi. 36 Antan yo t'ap mache sou wout la, yo rive bò yon ti dlo, e enuk la di: “Gade, men dlo! Ki sa ki anpeche m batize?” 38 Apre sa, li bay cha lagè a lòd pou yo kanpe, epi yo tou de desann nan dlo a, Filip ak gwo chèf la, epi li batize l '. 39 Lè yo soti nan dlo a, Lespri Senyè a pote Filip ale, eunus la pa wè l 'ankò, li ale nan wout li ak kè kontan. 40 Men, Filip te twouve l Azòt, e pandan l t ap pase, li t ap anonse bon nouvèl la nan tout vil yo jiskaske li rive Sezare.
- Mystery Babylon | Answers 4 Saints
Who is Mystery Babylon? The Fall of Babylon the Great 1 After these things I saw another angel coming down from heaven, having great authority, and the earth was illuminated with his glory. 2 And he cried mightily with a loud voice, saying, “Babylon the great is fallen, is fallen, and has become a dwelling place of demons, a prison for every foul spirit, and a cage for every unclean and hated bird! 3 For all the nations have drunk of the wine of the wrath of her fornication, the kings of the earth have committed fornication with her, and the merchants of the earth have become rich through the abundance of her luxury.” 4 And I heard another voice from heaven saying, “Come out of her, my people, lest you share in her sins, and lest you receive of her plagues. 5 For her sins have reached heaven, and God has remembered her iniquities. 6 Render to her just as she rendered to you, and repay her double according to her works; in the cup which she has mixed, mix double for her. 7 In the measure that she glorified herself and lived luxuriously, in the same measure give her torment and sorrow; for she says in her heart, ‘I sit as queen, and am no widow, and will not see sorrow.’ 8 Therefore her plagues will come in one day—death and mourning and famine. And she will be utterly burned with fire, for strong is the Lord God who judges her. The World Mourns Babylon’s Fall 9“The kings of the earth who committed fornication and lived luxuriously with her will weep and lament for her, when they see the smoke of her burning, 10standing at a distance for fear of her torment, saying, ‘Alas, alas, that great city Babylon, that mighty city! For in one hour your judgment has come.’ 11“And the merchants of the earth will weep and mourn over her, for no one buys their merchandise any more: 12merchandise of gold and silver, precious stones and pearls, fine linen and purple, silk and scarlet, every kind of citron wood, every kind of object of ivory, every kind of object of most precious wood, bronze, iron, and marble; 13 and cinnamon and incense, fragrant oil and frankincense, wine and oil, fine flour and wheat, cattle and sheep, horses and chariots, and bodies and souls of men. 14 The fruit that your soul longed for has gone from you, and all the things which are rich and splendid have gone from you, and you shall find them no more at all. 15 The merchants of these things, who became rich by her, will stand at a distance for fear of her torment, weeping and wailing, 16and saying, ‘Alas, alas, that great city that was clothed in fine linen, purple, and scarlet, and adorned with gold and precious stones and pearls! 17 For in one hour such great riches came to nothing.’ Every shipmaster, all who travel by ship, sailors, and as many as trade on the sea, stood at a distance 18 and cried out when they saw the smoke of her burning, saying, ‘What is like this great city?’ 19“They threw dust on their heads and cried out, weeping and wailing, and saying, ‘Alas, alas, that great city, in which all who had ships on the sea became rich by her wealth! For in one hour, she is made desolate.’ 20“Rejoice over her, O heaven, and you holy apostles and prophets, for God, has avenged you on her!” Finality of Babylon’s Fall 21 Then a mighty angel took up a stone like a great millstone and threw it into the sea, saying, “Thus with violence, the great city Babylon shall be thrown down, and shall not be found anymore. 22 The sound of harpists, musicians, flutists, and trumpeters shall not be heard in you anymore. No craftsman of any craft shall be found in you anymore, and the sound of a millstone shall not be heard in you anymore. 23 The light of a lamp shall not shine in you anymore, and the voice of bridegroom and bride shall not be heard in you anymore. For your merchants were the great men of the earth, for by your sorcery all the nations were deceived. 24 And in her was found the blood of prophets and saints, and of all who were slain on the earth.”

The real Jesus Watchman Message In the message in Hosea, Yehovah is saying my people are destroyed for lack of knowledge. He is warning us that it is our responsibility to give them warning from Him, about the coming wrath that is coming on this earth. Our Father repeated these few verses, He wants us to understand that He is serious, and will hold us accountable if we don't warn them (“son of man" denotes mankind generally) Hebrew people, Yeshua pèsonn pa vle konnen Matye 10:34-39 Pa Reveran Bryn MacPhail Si m ta mande w jodi a pou w site kèk karakteristik Yeshua, kisa w t ap nonmen? Si w t ap dekri pèsonalite Yeshua bay yon moun, ki adjektif ou ta itilize? Panse a kèk nan tèt ou, epi mwen pral pataje avèk ou premye sa yo ki te vin nan tèt mwen. Twa karakteristik yo ki imedyatman te vin nan lide m 'te: DOU, PADON, ak RENMEN. Mwen devine se ke pifò nan nou panse a Yeshua nan tèm menm jan tou. Sepandan, lè m rive nan fen chapit 10 nan Matye, mwen te jwenn yon pòtrè Yeshua trè diferan. Apre li seksyon sa a, pa anpil moun, jiskaske li seksyon an patikilye sa a nan Matye, konnen bò sa a nan Yeshua. Men, si nou okouran de bò sa a nan Yeshua, nou souvan chwazi bliye sou li.

Ala yon deklarasyon chokan! Yeshua "pa vin pote lapè, men yon nepe"? Poukisa li ta di yon bagay konsa? Ki sa Yeshua ap fè isit la se li ap korije fo sipozisyon sou sa ki misyon Juif Mesi a te ye. Dapre Ezayi 9:5-7, yo dekri Mesi a kòm "Pwens lapè a". Entèprèt Ekriti ebrayik yo te pran sa vle di ke Mesi a t ap "Pwens Lapè" SOU TÈ.Sepandan, se pa misyon Yeshua a. Objektif ultim Levanjil la se pa amoni sou tè a, e li ye, men lapè ak Bondye. ( Wom. 5:1 ). fè lapè ant Bondye ak limanite (Wom. 5:1).

Christ didn't come to bring peace but a sword The Real Jesus Not Peace, but a Sword 34 “Do not think that I have come to bring peace to the earth. I have not come to bring peace, but a sword. 35 For I have come to set a man against his father, and a daughter against her mother, and a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law. 36 And a person's enemies will be those of his own household. Matthew 10:34-36 Watchman’s Message In the message in Hosea, Yehovah is saying my people are destroyed for lack of knowledge. He is warning us that it is our responsibility to give them warning from Him, about the coming wrath that is coming on this earth. Our Father repeated these few verses, He wants us to understand that He is serious, and will hold us accountable if we don't warn them (“son of man" denotes mankind generally) Hebrew people, This passage from Ephesians 4:25 urges believers to reject falsehood, lies, and deceit in favor of speaking the truth to their neighbors. The core reasoning is that Christians are interconnected members of one body—the body of Christ—making lying to one another equivalent to harming oneself. Sheep among Wolves …20 For it will not be you speaking, but the Spirit of your Father speaking through you. 21 Brother will betray brother to death, and a father his child; children will rise against their parents and have them put to death. 22 You will be hated by everyone because of My name, but the one who perseveres to the end will be saved.… Matthew 10:20-22 “I’ve come to start a fire on this earth—how I wish it were blazing right now! I’ve come to change everything, turn everything right side up—how I long for it to be finished! Do you think I came to smooth things over and make everything nice? Not so. I’ve come to disrupt and confront! From now on, when you find five in a house, it will be— Three against two, and two against three; Father against son, and son against father; Mother against daughter, and daughter against mother; Mother-in-law against bride, and bride against mother-in-law.” Luke 12:49 Therefore, rejecting all falsehood [whether lying, defrauding, telling half-truths, spreading rumors, any such as these], SPEAK TRUTH EACH ONE WITH HIS NEIGHBOR , for we are all parts of one another [and we are all parts of the body of Christ]. New Life in Christ Ephesians 4:25 24 and to put on the new self, created to be like God in true righteousness and holiness. 25 Therefore each of you must put off falsehood and speak truthfully to his neighbor, for we are all members of one another. 26“Be angry, yet do not sin.” Do not let the sun set upon your anger, BE ANGRY [at sin--at immorality, at injustice, at ungodly behavior], YET DO NOT SIN; do not let your anger [cause you shame, nor allow it to] last until the sun goes down. 27 And do not give the devil an opportunity [to lead you into sin by holding a grudge, or nurturing anger, or harboring resentment, or cultivating bitterness]. 28 The thief [who has become a believer] must no longer steal, but instead he must work hard [making an honest living], producing that which is good with his own hands, so that he will have something to share with those in need. 29 Do not let unwholesome [foul, profane, worthless, vulgar] words ever come out of your mouth, but only such speech as is good for building up others, according to the need and the occasion, so that it will be a blessing to those who hear [you speak]. 30 And do not grieve the Holy Spirit of God [but seek to please Him], by whom you were sealed and marked [branded as God’s own] for the day of redemption [the final deliverance from the consequences of sin]. 31 Let all bitterness and wrath and anger and clamor [perpetual animosity, resentment, strife, fault-finding] and slander be put away from you, along with every kind of malice [all spitefulness, verbal abuse, malevolence]. 32 Be kind and helpful to one another, tender-hearted [compassionate, understanding] , forgiving one another [readily and freely], just as God in Christ also forgave [c] you. I Never Knew You 21 “Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but the one who does the will of my Father who is in heaven. 22 On that day many will say to me, ‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name, and cast out demons in your name, and do many mighty works in your name?’ 23 And then will I declare to them, ‘I never knew you; depart from me, you workers of lawlessness.’ Matthew 7:21-23 Narrow gate 13 “Enter by the narrow gate. For the gate is wide and the way is easy that leads to destruction , and those who enter by it are many. 14 For the gate is narrow and the way is hard that leads to life, and those who find it are few.

Simple Summary: John 3:16 teaches that God loved humanity so much that He gave His Son so that those who believe in Him may receive eternal life rather than perish. Context: These words were spoken by Jesus during a conversation with Nicodemus about the necessity of being born again and entering the Kingdom of God. Are you Born again Yes, that is a profound structural truth in God's plan. Yeshua was literally the first human to be physically raised from the dead into an immortal, glorified body. Scripture calls Him "the firstborn from the dead" (Colossians 1:18) and the "firstfruits of those who have fallen asleep" (1 Corinthians 15:20). By looking at Christ's physical resurrection, we get the exact blueprint for what happens to the saints. The Pattern: Firstfruits and the Harvest In the biblical agricultural cycle—which God uses to explain His plan of salvation—the priest would wave the single sheaf of the Firstfruits harvest before the Father. Only after that first sheaf was accepted could the rest of the harvest be gathered. Yeshua fulfilled this perfectly. He rose as the perfect Firstfruits. Because He broke the power of physical death, those who belong to Him will follow the exact same pattern when He returns. The Ultimate Transformation When the saints are raised at His second coming, they don't return as temporary, mortal flesh like Lazarus did. They receive a physical, permanent, immortal body just like the one Yeshua walked out of the tomb with. As Paul wrote in 1 Corinthians 15:52-53: "...the dead will be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed. For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality." Connecting Physical Resurrection to the Law This physical reality hits modern church traditions with an undeniable challenge: If Yeshua is the firstborn of a brand-new creation, and we are waiting to be physically raised into glorified bodies just like His, why would we live our temporary lives in rebellion to the laws He obeyed? When Yeshua walked the earth in His physical body, He perfectly kept the Sabbath, the dietary laws, and the Feasts. When He rose from the dead, He didn't change. For a Christian to claim they are waiting to inherit a resurrection body like Christ's, while actively treating His Father's commandments as dead, is a total disconnect. "Yeshua told Nicodemus that what is born of the flesh is flesh, and what is born of the Spirit is spirit, moving like the wind. If you claim you are already fully 'born again' right now, why are you still trapped in a temporary body of flesh and blood instead of a glorified, immortal spirit body? Are you confusing the earnest promise of the Holy Spirit inside you today with the actual, physical rebirth that only happens at the resurrection of the dead?" Jesus Teaches Nicodemus 3 Now there was a Pharisee, a man named Nicodemus who was a member of the Jewish ruling council. 2 He came to Jesus at night and said, “Rabbi, we know that you are a teacher who has come from God. For no one could perform the signs you are doing if God were not with him.” 3 Jesus replied, “Very truly I tell you, no one can see the kingdom of God unless they are born again.[ a ]” 4 “How can someone be born when they are old?” Nicodemus asked. “Surely they cannot enter a second time into their mother’s womb to be born!” 5 Jesus answered, “Very truly I tell you, no one can enter the kingdom of God unless they are born of water and the Spirit. 6 Flesh gives birth to flesh, but the Spirit[ b ] gives birth to spirit. 7 You should not be surprised at my saying, ‘You[ c ] must be born again.’ 8 The wind blows wherever it pleases. You hear its sound, but you cannot tell where it comes from or where it is going. So it is with everyone born of the Spirit.”[ d ] 9 “How can this be?” Nicodemus asked. 10 “You are Israel’s teacher,” said Jesus, “and do you not understand these things? 11 Very truly I tell you, we speak of what we know, and we testify to what we have seen, but still you people do not accept our testimony. 12 I have spoken to you of earthly things and you do not believe; how then will you believe if I speak of heavenly things? 13 No one has ever gone into heaven except the one who came from heaven—the Son of Man.[ e ] 14 Just as Moses lifted up the snake in the wilderness, so the Son of Man must be lifted up,[f ] 15 that everyone who believes may have eternal life in him.” Proverbs 3:5-6 Trust in the LORD with all thine heart, and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths. 1. "Trust in the LORD with all thine heart" Meaning: Total dependence on God, not self-reliance (Prov 28:26). Insight: Relational surrender to God’s unchanging character. 2. "And lean not unto thine own understanding" Meaning: Reject intellectual pride; human wisdom is flawed (Prov 14:12). 3. "In all thy ways acknowledge him" Meaning: Constant God-consciousness in every area (Col 3:17). Insight: Turns daily life into guided obedience. 4. "And he shall direct thy paths" Meaning: God’s promise of sovereign guidance (Ps 37:23).

God detests the prayers of a person who ignores the law. Yeshua said, “This is how you should pray: “When you pray, don’t babble on and on as the Gentiles do. They think their prayers are answered merely by repeating their words again and again. Lapriyè Seyè a Bondye deteste priyè yon moun ki inyore lalwa. Pwovèb 28:9 Yeshua di, “Men ki jan ou dwe priye: “Lè n'ap priye, pa pale toujou tankou moun lòt nasyon yo. Yo panse priyè yo reponn senpleman lè yo repete pawòl yo ankò e ankò. Matye 6:7 Papa nou ki nan syèl la, 5 Bondye te deside alavans adopte nou nan pwòp fanmi l 'nan mennen nou nan tèt li atravè Yeshua Mesi. Sa a se sa li te vle fè, e li te ba li anpil plezi. Ephesians 1:5 28 Pa gen ni jwif ni moun lòt nasyon, ni esklav ni lib, ni gason ni fi, paske nou tout fè yon sèl nan Kris la Jezi. Galat 3:28 7 Mezanmi, pa kite pèsonn twonpe nou. Moun ki fè sa ki dwat se jis, menm jan li jis. 8 Moun k'ap fè sa ki mal se moun dyab la, paske dyab la fè peche depi nan konmansman an. Rezon ki fè Pitit Bondye a te parèt se pou l detwi travay dyab la. 9 Pèsonn ki fèt nan Bondye p'ap kontinye fè peche, paske desandans Bondye a rete nan yo. yo pa ka kontinye peche, paske yo fèt nan Bondye. 10 Men ki jan nou konnen ki moun ki pitit Bondye yo ak ki moun ki pitit dyab la: Nenpòt moun ki pa fè sa ki dwat pa pitit Bondye, ni moun ki pa renmen frè ak sè yo.1Jan3: Santite non ou. Exodus 20:7 “Piga nou sèvi ak non Seyè a, Bondye nou an, paske Seyè a p'ap fè moun pa koupab ki sèvi ak non l'. Kiyès ki monte nan syèl la e ki desann? Kiyès ki rasanble van an nan pwen li? Kiyès ki vlope dlo yo nan rad li? Kiyès ki etabli tout dènye bout latè? Ki jan li rele oswa Pitit li a? Se vre wi ou konnen. Pwovèb 30:4 10 Wayòm ou an vini. Anpil moun ta sezi pou yo konnen Bib la defini levanjil la yon fason diferan pase sa yo te toujou di yo. Yon lekti apwofondi montre ke aksepte san Kris la pou peye peche nou yo—si enpòtans fondamantal sa a—se aktyèlman pa konsantre nan "bon nouvèl" li te pote a e ke apot yo te kontinye preche. Anplis de sa nan mouri pou peche nou yo, Yeshua te vin sou tè a kòm yon mesaje nan men Jewova Papa a: Èske Wayòm ou an vini byento? Se pou volonte w fèt sou tè a, menm jan li ye nan syèl la. Matye 6:10 W'a fèt sou latè menm jan li ye nan syèl la. "Mèt, ki pi gwo kòmandman nan Lalwa?" Jezi reponn yo: “‘Renmen Senyè a, Bondye nou an, ak tout kè nou, ak tout nanm nou e ak tout lespri nou.’[a] 38 Sa a se premye kòmandman an e pi gwo kòmandman an. 39 Dezyèm lan se menm jan ak li: 'Renmen pwochen ou tankou ou menm.'[b] 40 Tout Lalwa ak Pwofèt yo depann sou de kòmandman sa yo. Matye 22:36-40 Ban nou jòdi a pen nou chak jou. Men, Jezi di li: Non! Ekriti yo di: 'Moun pa viv ak pen sèlman, men ak tout pawòl ki soti nan bouch Bondye.'” Matye 4:4. E padonnen nou dèt nou yo, menm jan nou padonnen dèt nou yo.

Peter’s words pierced their hearts, and they said to him and to the other apostles, what should we do?”Peter replied, “Each of you must repent of your sins and turn to God and be baptized in the name of Yeshua for the forgiveness of your sins. then you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. Salvation False Savation Grace Repentance Can we lose your Salvation Hebrews 10:26-31 26 If we deliberately keep on sinning after we have received the knowledge of the truth, no sacrifice for sins is left, 27 but only a fearful expectation of judgment and of raging fire that will consume the enemies of God. 28 Anyone who rejected the law of Moses died without mercy on the testimony of two or three witnesses. 29 How much more severely do you think someone deserves to be punished who has trampled the Son of God underfoot, who has treated as an unholy thing the blood of the covenant that sanctified them, and who has insulted the Spirit of grace? 30 For we know him who said, “It is mine to avenge; I will repay,”[a ] and again, “The Lord will judge his people.”[b ] 31 It is a dreadful thing to fall into the hands of the living God. For it is by grace [God’s remarkable compassion and favor drawing you to Christ] that you have been saved [actually delivered from judgment and given eternal life] through faith. And this [salvation] is not of yourselves [not through your own effort], but it is the [undeserved, gracious] gift of God; What are the 16 steps to salvation? Hear the Gospel. (Matthew 4:17John 8:32) Believe the Gospel (Hebrews 11:6, John 20:31) Repent of past sins (Luke 13:3, Acts 17:30) Confess faith in Jesus Christ (Romans 10:10, Matthew 10:32) Be Baptized (Galatians 3:27, Mark 16:16, Acts 2:38) Be faithful unto death (Revelation 2:10) For all who obey him eternal salvation Hebrews 5:9 Whoever claims to live in him must live as Jesus did.1 John 2:6 But don't just listen to God's word. You must do what it says. Otherwise, you are only fooling yourselves. James 1:2 And if anyone does not have the Spirit of Christ, they do not belong to Christ. Romans 8:1 We are witnesses of these things and so is the Holy Spirit, who is given by God to those who obey him.” Acts 5:32 “whoever calls on the name of the LORD shall be saved.Romans 10:13-15 For But if thou wouldest enter into life, keep the commandments. Matthew 19:16-26 That whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have eternal life…John 3:15,16 For we live by faith, not by sight. (Hebrews 11:6) And without faith it is impossible to please God because anyone who comes to him must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who earnestly seek him.2 Corinthians 5:7 And anyone who believes in God’s Son has eternal life. Anyone who doesn’t obey the Son will never experience eternal life but remains under God’s angry judgment.” John 3: Jesus replied, “Very truly I tell you, no one can see the kingdom of God unless they are born again.”John 3:3 So you see, faith by itself isn’t enough. Unless it produces good deeds, it is dead and useless. James 2:17-23 Faith is Scripturally defined as: Faith is: believing that everything God said is true, committing to follow what it says, and then doing what the Word says. In other words, believing/trusting, committing to obey or do, and then the action of obeying/doing it. Another way we say it is that faith is believing, committing, and trusting in God and His Word. All of mankind is “under the law” (The law of sin and death) until they come into covenant through faith in the Messiah and receive salvation by grace through that faith. God’s Children through Faith 23 Before the way of faith in Christ was available to us, we were placed under guard by the law. We were kept in protective custody, so to speak until the way of faith was revealed. 24 Let me put it another way. The law was our guardian until Christ came; it protected us until we could be made right with God through faith. 25 And now that the way of faith has come, we no longer need the law as our guardian. 26 For you are all children of God through faith in Christ Jesus. 27 And all who have been united with Christ in baptism have put on Christ, like putting on new clothes’ 28There is no longer Jew or Gentile slave or free, male and female. For you are all one in Christ Jesus. 29 And now that you belong to Christ, you are the true children of Abraham. You are his heirs, and God’s promise to Abraham belongs to you. The way for us to be saved is to believe that we have sinned and deserve death because the Word says so. John 3:3 Jesus replied, "I tell you the truth, unless you are born again, you cannot see the Kingdom of Yehovah." Acts 2:38 Peter replied, "Each of you must repent of your sins and turn to Yehovah and be baptized in the name of Yeshua Messiah for the forgiveness of your sins. Then you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. Proverbs 28:9 He that turned away his ear from hearing the law, even his prayer shall be an abomination. Ecclesiastes 12:13 That's the whole story. Here now is my conclusion: Fear Yehovah and obey His commands, for this is everyone's duty. Galatians 3:28 T here is no longer Jew or Gentile, slave or free, male and female. For you are all one in Christ Yeshua. James 1:22 But don't just listen to Yehovah’s word. You must do what it says. Otherwise, you are only fooling yourselves. “Then Yehovah said to me, shout the message! Don't hold back. Say to my people Israel: You've sinned! You've turned against Yehovah your Elohim. Isaiah 58:1 "When you tell them all this, do not expect them to listen. Shout out your warnings but do not expect them to respond. Say to them, ‘This is the nation whose people will not obey the Lord their God and who refuse to be taught. (Jeremiah 7:27) (This is a Child of the Devil) For God is Spirit, so those who worship him must worship in spirit and in truth. “John 4:24 Present your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable to God, which is your spiritual worship. Romans 12:1-2 Truth is God’s Torah You must be led by the Spirit Gal 5:18 This text brings the entire purpose of the Covenant into absolute, razor-sharp focus. It dismantles the false doctrine that "faith" is merely an emotional sentiment or a mental nod. Scripturally, faith is a three-part substance: Believing, Committing, and Doing. When Galatians speaks of being delivered from the "guardian" of the law, it means that before faith, we were prisoners locked in protective custody under the law of sin and death because we had no power to overcome the flesh. But through faith, we are born again, receive the Holy Spirit, and are finally given the supernatural capability to do what the Word says. 📋 The "Faith, Covenant, and Action" Summary Test Instructions: Answer these final 4 structural questions to see if your definition of faith aligns with the unchanging Word of Yehovah. Question 1: The Three-Part Definition of Faith Based on the scriptural definition provided, true biblical faith cannot be cut into pieces. It must include all three parts of the engine. How is your faith operating? A) Believing, Committing, and Doing. You believe everything God said is true, you have committed your life to follow it, and you are actively doing the physical requirements of His Word (the Torah). B) Mental Belief Only. You claim to "trust" or "believe" in Jesus, but your walk lacks the physical action of keeping His commandments, meaning you are only listening to the word and fooling yourself (James 1:22). Question 2: The Role of the Guardian (Galatians 3) Before the way of faith was revealed, humanity was locked under guard by the law because of our sin. Now that you have come into covenant through the Messiah, what is your relationship to the Father's instructions? A) Clothed in Christ to Walk in Truth. You are a child of God and an heir to Abraham (Galatians 3:29). Because you are led by the Spirit, you are no longer a condemned prisoner under the law of sin and death; instead, you present your body as a living sacrifice to worship Him in Spirit and in Truth (His Torah) (Romans 12:1-2). B) Living Carelessly Under the Guise of "Freedom." You use the phrase "no longer under the law" as an excuse to ignore the Father's statutes, missing the point that Christ came to deliver us from sin, not to give us permission to commit it. Question 3: The Abomination of the Closed Ear In Proverbs 28:9, the Sovereign issues a stark warning about the spiritual mechanics of prayer: "He that turned away his ear from hearing the law, even his prayer shall be an abomination." When you approach the Father in prayer, what is the state of your ear? A) Unstopped and Submissive. You open your ears to His written laws first, adjusting your lifestyle, food, and calendar to match His voice, so that your prayers are acceptable in His sight. B) Deaf to the Torah . You willfully plug your ears to the specific laws of the Old Testament, yet you expect God to hear, answer, and bless your prayers in a state of continuous disobedience. Question 4: The Watchman's Shout (Isaiah 58 & Jeremiah 7) The Father commanded His watchmen: "Shout the message! Don't hold back... Say to my people: You've sinned!" Yet He warned in Jeremiah that the people would not listen or respond. When the hard, straight truth of the Scriptures confronts your current lifestyle, which nation do you align with? A) The Repentant Remnant. You hear the warning, accept the correction, undergo the baptism of repentance (Acts 2:38), and recognize that your ultimate duty on this earth is to fear Yehovah and obey His commands (Ecclesiastes 12:13). B) The Nation That Refuses to Be Taught . You hear the shout of the warning, but you harden your neck, refuse to respond, and continue following human traditions, matching the exact description of the children of disobedience. 🛑 The Final Diagnostic Verdict Scripture leaves zero room for neutrality. "For God is Spirit, so those who worship him must worship in spirit and in truth." (John 4:24) If your lifestyle consistently hits the B markers, the diagnosis is absolute: you are operating in a counterfeit faith that the Bible defines as dead. A faith that refuses to submit to the Torah is a faith that has never been born again. The sifting is complete, the standard has been laid down, and the tests are done. Do not fool yourself any longer with empty words or the smooth traditions of men. Let the seed of the Word take root in good soil, present your body as a living sacrifice, and start physically doing what the King commanded while there is still time to cross the border into His Kingdom! Believe without obedience What is God's definition of a Christian? Rev 22:14 Blessed are those who do His commandments, that they may have the right to the tree of life, and may enter through the gates into the city. What is Yeshua definition of a Christian Matthew 19:17“Why ask me about what is good?” Jesus replied. “There is only One who is good. But to answer your question—if you want to receive eternal life, keep the commandments.” 1 John 2: 3 And we can be sure that we know him if we obey his commandments. 4 If someone claims, “I know God,” but doesn’t obey God’s commandments, that person is a liar and is not living in the truth. 5 But those who obey God’s word truly show how completely they love him. That is how we know we are living in him. 6 Those who say they live in God should live their lives as Jesus did. Heb 5:9 And having been perfected, He became the author of eternal salvation to all who obey Him, ESV And we are witnesses to these things, and so is the Holy Spirit, whom God has given to those who obey him .” Acts 5:32 For this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days, declares the Lord: I will put my laws into their minds, and write them on their hearts, and I will be their God, and they shall be my people. Why did Jesus have to die for you? If you don't know why Christ had to die for you, What is sin? 4 Everyone who makes a practice of sinning also practices lawlessness; sin is lawlessness you are not saved and never converted. What are the end results of being let by the Spirit? It is obedience to the law of God Revelation 12:17 7 And the dragon was wroth with the woman and went to make war with the remnant of her seed, which keeps the commandments of God and have the testimony of Jesus Christ. Children of God …7 Little children, let no one deceive you: The one who practices righteousness is righteous, just as Christ is righteous. 8 The one who practices sin is of the devil because the devil has been sinning from the very start. This is why the Son of God was revealed, to destroy the works of the devil. 9 Anyone born of God refuses to practice sin, because God’s seed abides in him; he cannot go on sinning, because he has been born of God.… If ye love me, keep my commandments.

(Egzòd 18:20; Detewonòm 10:12; Joz 22:51; 1 Wa 2:3; Sòm 119:1; Pwovèb 6:23; Is 2:3; Malaki 2:8; Mak 12:14; Travay 24:14) 6) Si lalwa Bondye a pou tout tan, ak lalwa Bondye a fini, èske pawòl sa a pou tout tan ka fini? Èske sa vle di lavi etènèl ka fini tou? (Levitik 16:31; 1 Kronik 16:15; Sòm 119:160; Ezayi 40:8) 7) Èske sa ki defini peche ka anile? Èske peche ka peche yon jou e pa peche yon lòt jou? Èske definisyon peche a chanje? (Nonb 15:22-31; Danyèl 9:11; 1 Jan 3:4) 9) Èske sa ki lavi a pa ka lavi ankò? (Jòb 33:30; Sòm 36:9; Pwovèb 6:23; Revelasyon 22:14) 10) Si Bondye se Pawòl la, e Bondye pa ka chanje, lè sa a ki jan nou ka sijere ke Pawòl Bondye a chanje? (Jan 1:1; Malachi 3:6) Si nou vle pran plezi nan Lalwa Bondye a, èske nou pa dwe pran plezi l ankò? ( Sòm 1:2 ; 112:1 ; 119:16; 119:35; 119:47; 119:70; 119:77; 119:92; 119:174; Ezayi 58:13; Women 7:22) (paj 29) Si lè yo te ekri Lalwa a, yo te di nou pou nou mache nan li (Detewonòm 10:11-13), nou tout konnen ke Kris la te mache menm lwa sa a, e Jan te di nou dwe mache egzakteman menm jan li te mache (1 Jan 2:5). -6), alòske Pòl te di nou dwe suiv egzanp Kris la (1 Korentyen 11:1), lè sa a, èske nou pa ta suiv menm kòmandman Kris la te mache yo? _cc781905-5cde-3194-bb3b-136bad5-cf58cd_053-cf58cd_053-cf58cd Si Kris la se Pawòl Bondye a ki fè chè, e Kris la se Pawòl Bondye a (Jan 1:14; Revelasyon 19:13), e swadizan kèk nan Pawòl Bondye a aboli, èske li te moute sou kwa a pou aboli pati nan tèt li? Si lalwa Bondye a se tout sou renmen Bondye ak renmen lòt moun, èske fason pou renmen Bondye ak renmen lòt moun ka chanje? (Egzòd 20:6; Detewonòm 5:10; Detewonòm 7:10; 11:13; 11:22; 30:16; 6:5; Levitik 19:18; Neyemi 1:5; Danyèl 9:4; Matye 22:35-37; 10:39; 16:25; Jo 14:15; 14:21; Women 13:9; 1 Jan 5:2-3; 2 Jan 1:6) Si lalwa Bondye a te toujou gen entansyon beni nou ak bon pou nou, ebyen poukisa li ta wete l nan men nou apre kwa a? (Detewonòm 11:26-27; Sòm 112:1; 119:1-2; Sòm 128:1; Pwovèb 8:32; Ezayi 56:2; Matye 5:6; 5:10; Lik 11:28; Jak 1:25; 1 Pyè 3:14; Revelasyon 22:14; Sòm 119) Si tout objektif lòm se kenbe kòmandman Senyè a (Eklezyas 12:13), alò èske sa pa vre ankò? Matye 5:17-19 klèman anseye ke okenn kòmandman pa dwe pase omwen jiskaske syèl la ak tè a pase epi tout Lalwa ak Pwofèt yo rive vre. Anplis de sa, kwayan k ap anseye lòt moun kòmandman yo te disparèt yo pral pi piti nan wayòm syèl la, men moun ki fè efò pou yo respekte tout lwa Bondye yo e ki anseye lòt moun pou yo fè menm bagay la pral gwo nan Wayòm nan. Kidonk, ki jan nou ka alèz pou nou anseye anyen mwens pase sa Moyiz te ekri ak sa Kris la te pratike ak anseye? Lè Kris la te kòmande nou pou nou obsève ak fè tout sa ki soti nan chèz Moyiz la (Matye 23:13), ki se e ki te toujou sa Moyiz te ekri, ebyen poukisa nou pa ta vle fè sa, sitou paske li kòmande nou anseye tout nasyon yo. tout sa li te kòmande, ki nan kou ta gen ladann tout bagay ansèyman depi nan chèz Moyiz la. Lè Pòl te deklare plizyè fwa ke li kwè, pratike, ak anseye lalwa Bondye a (jan Moyiz te ekri - Travay 21:20-26; 24:13-14; 25:8) epi tou ke pa gen okenn diferans ant jwif la ak la. Grek nan Kris la ( 1 Korentyen 12:12-14 ; Galat 3:27-29 ; Kolosyen 3:10-12 ), ki jan nou ka alèz lè l sèvi avèk lèt Pòl yo pou nou anseye nou pa dwe obsève tout lwa Bondye a? Ki jan Pòl ka anseye lalwa Bondye a (jan Moyiz te ekri a) epi ansèyman kont lalwa Bondye an menm tan? Ki sa nou fè ak lefèt ke obeyi sa Moyiz te ekri a vle di tou anseye moun lòt nasyon yo, etranje, ak etranje nan pèp Izrayèl la, yo pratike menm lwa Bondye a nan lafwa? (Egzòd 12:19; 12:38; 12:49; Levitik 19:34; 24:22; Nonm 9:14; 15:15-16; 15:29). Epitou, Ezayi 42:6; 60:3; Matye 5:14; Efezyen 2:10-13; Travay 13:47; Rom 11:16-27; Jeremi 31:31-34; Ezekyèl 37; 1 Jan 2:10; 1 Jan 1:7) Sa vle di ke pa janm gen okenn diferans ant jwif ak moun ki pa jwif nan lafwa a. Èske tout fwa yo te akize Pòl paske yo pa pratike ak anseye Lwa Moyiz la pa t ap vrè akizasyon olye de fo akizasyon tankou Pòl te di ak demontre? Poukisa gen toujou akizasyon kont Pòl ke li te anseye kont Lalwa Bondye a jan Moyiz te ekri a? Poukisa li toujou oblije defann tèt li kont reklamasyon absid sa yo menm lè liv Travay la temwaye kont li? Lè li parèt Pòl ap pale de lalwa, li swa ap pale de lwa oral Juif yo oswa li ap pale de madichon lalwa Mesi a kloure sou kwa a. Lè Ekriti yo di nan NT a ke nou dwe kenbe kòmandman Bondye yo nan renmen nou tounen pou li (1 Jan 5:2-3) kòm yon repons a favè li oswa lanmou li pou nou (1 Jan 4:19), ki jan nou ka konkli. ke nou dwe respekte sèlman kèk nan kòmandman Bondye yo? Èske kòmandman ki nan Levitik 23 oswa Levitik 11 se kòmandman Bondye oswa ou pa? Nan Ezayi 66:15-17, nou wè ke nan kontèks retounen Senyè a, ke lè li retounen, li klèman fache ke moun ap manje vyann kochon. Si li gen sousi lè sa a, poukisa nou ta sipoze ke li pa pran swen kounye a? Nan Zakari 14, lè Senyè a tounen vin rèy, nou wè klèman ke tout moun gen pou selebre Tabènak jan Moyiz te ekri a. Poukisa nou ta dwe selebre Tabènak yo anvan kwa a, men pa apre kwa a, men answit selebre li ankò lè Seyè a retounen? Si Kris la se Pawòl ki fè lachè (Revelasyon 19:13), epi li menm yè, jodi a ak pou tout tan (Ebre 13:8), alò ki jan Pawòl Bondye a ye, pa menm yè jodi a ak pou tout tan ak Ezayi 40. :8 di? Epi anfen, eksepte enkonpreyansyon nan Travay 10 ak Travay 15, prèske tout sipoze sipò pou kwayans ke lalwa Bondye te chanje a soti nan lekti kèk ti moso nan lèt Pòl yo. Poukisa nou sitou itilize Pòl pou sipòte aboli lalwa Bondye a lè Pyè di byen klè ke lèt Pòl yo souvan itilize pou fè erè anachi paske Pòl difisil pou konprann e anpil moun ki li l yo pa gen ase konesans sou Pawòl Bondye a, men pito. yo inyoran ak enstab (2 Pyè 3:15-17). Pòl se menm moun ki Pyè avèti nou pou nou pa itilize pou nou anseye kont lalwa Bondye a. Poukisa yon moun ta sèvi ak li? Sa yo se jis kèk nan pi gwo kesyon nou genyen pou nenpòt moun ki kwè ke Lalwa Bondye a te chanje. Gen anpil plis ki ka prezante, men èspere ke, ki fè ou panse. 119 ministè

or the flesh craves what is contrary to the Spirit, and the Spirit what is contrary to the flesh. They are opposed to each other, so that you do not do what you want. …18 But if you are led by the Spirit, you are not under the law. 8 For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith—and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God— 9 not by works so that no one can boast. 🏛️ What Does "Under the Law" Actually Mean? To understand why Paul said we are not "under the law," you have to look at the phrase scripturally, not culturally. In the Greek text, being "under the law" (upo nomon) carries a specific legal meaning: being under the condemnation and penalty of the law because you are a lawbreaker. Think of it like a modern traffic law: If you drive the speed limit, you are not "under" the authority of the flashing lights and the ticket book. You are walking in freedom. The law isn't chasing you. The exact second you choose to break the speed limit, you put yourself "under the law." You are now a criminal caught in the system, waiting for the penalty. Before you came into covenant through the Messiah Yeshua, you were a lawbreaker. You were trapped in protective custody under the law of sin and death (Galatians 3:23). You owed a blood debt you could not pay. When Yeshua died for you, His grace paid your penalty and pulled you out of that prison. He didn't delete the speed limit; He paid your ticket and set you free from the executioner! “Do we then make void the law through faith? Certainly not! On the contrary, we establish the law.” — Romans 3:31 (NKJV) According to the clear blueprint of Scripture, receiving the true, empowering grace of God is not a passive event or a quick mental agreement. It is a profound, life-altering legal and spiritual transaction. True grace is an unearned gift, but it is exclusively given to a specific heart posture. The Scriptures lay down a direct, unbreakable sequence for how a person physically enters into this covenant and receives the gift of the Holy Spirit. This phrase likely references the famous biblical proverb, "God resists the proud, but gives grace to the humble." This theme of humility runs throughout scripture as a reminder of the peace that comes from recognizing our dependence on God rather than relying entirely on our own strength. [ 1 , 2 , 3 , 4 ] Where it is found: You can read this exact sentiment in the New Testament books of James 4:6 and 1 Peter 5:5 , which both quote the Old Testament passage from Proverbs 3:34 . [1 ] What it means : Pride pushes people to rely entirely on themselves and act as their own ultimate authority. Because of this, scripture notes that God opposes or resists the proud. [1 ] The reward for humility: Those who are humble acknowledge their limitations and seek God. In return, they are met with His unearned favor, or "grace," which helps them overcome daily struggles and find spiritual rest. [ 1 , 2 , 3 ] 🛠️ The Scriptural Sequence to Receive Grace 1.Confront the Standard of the Word:The Diagnosis. You must look into the perfect mirror of God's Torah (His Law) to understand your true spiritual condition. Scripture states that "sin is the transgression of the law" (1 John 3:4). You must believe that you have broken His commandments, sinned against His holiness, and that you rightfully deserve the sentence of the law of sin and death (Romans 6:23). 2.Experience Godly Sorrow:The Broken Heart. Instead of making excuses, minimizing your actions, or defending your traditions, you allow the truth to smash your pride. You experience a deep, internal grief because you realize your lawlessness has offended the Creator and brought shame to His Name. This is Godly sorrow, which produces a repentance that leads to salvation without regret (2 Corinthians 7:10). As the Psalmist records: "The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit, a broken and a contrite heart—these, O God, You will not despise" (Psalm 51:17). 3.Repent (Teshuvah):The Physical Turn. You must execute a radical, 180-degree physical turn. Repentance (Teshuvah) means you stop walking down the broad road of worldly customs, pagan traditions, and self-pleasing appetites, and you turn your face directly back toward the ancient paths of the Father's commandments. You actively cast the abominations out of your life, your home, your diet, and your calendar. 4.Surrender to the Messiah through Baptism:The Covenant Seal. You cast your entire life upon the unmerited mercy, favor, and blood of the Sovereign King, Yeshua. You acknowledge that His death paid the blood-debt you owed for your past lawlessness. You seal this commitment by being immersed in water (baptism) in the name of Yeshua Messiah for the forgiveness of your sins (Acts 2:38). This is where you physically "put on Christ," burying your old, rebellious nature and rising as a brand-new creation (Galatians 3:27). 5.Receive the Holy Spirit to Walk in Truth:The Empowered Life . Once you have repented and entered the covenant, the Father gives you the ultimate gift of grace: the Holy Spirit. The purpose of the Spirit is not to give you goosebumps or make you feel emotional; the purpose of the Spirit is to write the Torah directly onto your heart and mind (Hebrews 10:16), giving you the supernatural power, desire, and strength to physically do what the Word says and establish His Law in your daily walk (Romans 3:31). ⚖️ The Gatekeeper: Humility vs. Pride There is one supreme, universal spiritual law that dictates exactly who receives this gift and who is locked out. Scripture repeats this warning multiple times across both testaments: “God resists the proud, but gives grace to the humble.” — James 4:6 / 1 Peter 5:5 / Proverbs 3:34 The Proud Man defends his lifestyle, makes excuses for eating abominations, clings tightly to the annual pagan traditions of his ancestors, and argues with the plain text of Scripture. Because his neck is stiff, the Creator actively resists him, and he can never access true grace. The Humble Man hears the straight, uncompromised shout of the Word, falls on his face, confesses his lawlessness, and asks the King for instructions. Because his heart is soft, the Father pours out boundless grace upon him, lifting him out of the muddy pit of the world and placing his feet firmly on the path of stable, joyful obedience. Grace is entirely free, but it will cost you your pride, your worldly reputation, and your attachment to human traditions. If you want the true, life-saving favor of Yehovah today, humble yourself before the text, submit to the King, and start doing what His Word commands! God’s grace and His Spirit are deeply connected in scripture. The Holy Spirit is considered the very presence of God within a believer , and it is through this Spirit that we receive, understand, and apply God's unearned grace to our daily lives. [1 , 2 ] How Grace and the Spirit Work Together The Source of Grace: Grace is God's undeserved favor and love. It is a free gift given to us through faith in Christ. [ 1 ] The Spirit's Role: The Holy Spirit illuminates these truths, helping us grasp what God has freely given us. The Spirit is often called the "deposit" or guarantee of our salvation. [1 , 2 ] Evidence of the Spirit: When a person has the Spirit of God, their life is transformed. T his transformation produces what the Bible calls the "fruit of the spirit": love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, gentleness, faithfulness, and self-control. [1 , 2 ] By this connection, we know that God dwells within us and works through us. You can explore more about how the Spirit empowers believers on Desiring God . [1 , 2 ] Here is the final, binary (Yes/No) Grace Test to prove whether you are operating under true biblical grace or a lawless counterfeit. 1. Theological & Spiritual Meaning Divine Favor : In religious contexts grace is unearned, unconditional love and forgiveness. It is the free gift of salvation and spiritual strength. Mealtime Prayer: A short, spoken prayer of thanksgiving offered before or after eating is widely referred to as "saying grace". [1 , 2 , 3 , 4 , 5 ] 2. Behavioral & Interpersonal Poise and Elegance: The physical attribute of moving smoothly, naturally, and with dignified balance (e.g., a dancer's grace). Compassion: Interacting with others by showing patience, kindness, and extending forgiveness, especially during difficult situations. [1 , 2 , 3 ] 3. Practical & Legal Contexts Grace Period: A designated length of time past a due date (like a bill or insurance premium) where a late penalty or cancellation will not be applied. Privilege: In law, a concession, pardon, or temporary exemption granted as an act of mercy rather than a strict legal right. [1 , 2 ] ⚖️ The True Grace vs. Counterfeit Grace Test Instructions: Answer these final 3 diagnostic questions honestly to see how the word "grace" is being applied in your life. Question 1: The Function of Grace The Scriptural Law: “ For the grace of God has appeared that offers salvation to all people. It teaches us to say ‘No’ to ungodliness and worldly passions, and to live self-controlled, upright and godly lives in this present age...” (Titus 2:11-12). The Question: What is grace actually teaching you to do on a daily basis? [ ] YES (True Grace): Grace acts as your trainer, giving you the power to say "No" to the desires of the flesh and the traditions of the world, driving you to live an upright lifestyle aligned with the Torah. [ ] NO (Counterfeit): You use the concept of grace to excuse or tolerate known compromises in your home, calendar, or diet, treating it as a safety net for ongoing disobedience. Question 2: The Relationship to the Law The Scriptural Law: “What shall we say then? Shall we continue in sin that grace may abound? Certainly not! How shall we who died to sin live any longer in it ?” (Romans 6:1-2) / “Do we then make void the law through faith? Certainly not! On the contrary, we establish the law.” (Romans 3:31). The Question: Now that you have received salvation by grace through faith, what happens to your obligation to obey God’s written commandments? [ ] YES (True Grace): You recognize that grace delivers you from the condemnation of the law (the law of sin and death), which frees you to gladly establish, honor, and physically do the commandments in Spirit and Truth. [ ] NO (Counterfeit): You believe that being "under grace" means the Old Testament laws, dietary boundaries, and Sabbaths are "done away with," effectively using grace to render God's Spoken Word void. Question 3: The Threat of Turncoats The Scriptural Law: “For certain individuals... have secretly slipped in among you. They are ungodly people, who pervert the grace of our God into a license for immorality and deny Jesus Christ our only Sovereign and Lord.” (Jude 1:4). The Question: When you are confronted with a hard, uncompromised command from the Scriptures (like purging pagan holiday traditions or unclean foods), what is your immediate defense? [ ] YES (True Grace): You tremble at the Word, humble your heart, and seek the Spirit's help to align your lifestyle with the command immediately. [ ] NO (Counterfeit): Your mind immediately jumps to the defense of "I'm saved by grace, not works," which is the exact mechanism Jude warns against—turning the favor of God into a shield to protect your own lawlessness. 🎯 The Conclusion of the Matter True grace is an empowering gift. It does not lower the Father's standard of holiness; it raises your ability to meet it. If your grace results in a clean home, a guarded Sabbath, a scriptural diet, and the keeping of His Appointed Times, you are walking in the true, unmerited favor of the Most High. If your grace allows you to comfortably keep the traditions of Rome, eat abominations, and ignore the Torah, you are caught in a delusion that scripture defines as a dead faith. The tests are finished, the standard is clear, and the witness of the text is absolute. May the true grace of our Master Yeshua give you the strength to stand with the obedient remnant until the day of His appearing! Here are 5 more direct, binary (Yes/No) questions to expand the Grace and Accountability Test. These focus specifically on the ultimate purpose of grace: moving a believer from a state of lawless rebellion to a life of physical, covenant-keeping action. 📋 The Simple Test: Part 4 (The Mechanics of Grace ) Question 4: The Power to Perform The Scriptural Law: “For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand that we should walk in them.” (Ephesians 2:10). The Question: Do you view grace as a passive legal status that merely keeps you out of hell, or do you view it as the active fuel that enables you to perform the "good works" explicitly outlined in the Father's Law? [ ] YES (True Grace): You recognize that grace was given so that your hands and feet could physically walk out the ancient paths and commandments God prepared from the beginning. [ ] NO (Counterfeit): You treat grace as an end in itself, believing that as long as you have the right theology, actual physical compliance with God's laws is optional or secondary. Question 5: The "Sin is the Transgression of the Law" Rule The Scriptural Law: “Whosoever committeth sin transgresseth also the law: for sin is the transgression of the law.” (1 John 3:4). The Question: When you talk about needing "grace for your sins," do you define sin strictly the way the Bible does (breaking the written Torah), or do you use a human, emotional definition of just "being a bad person"? [ ] YES (True Grace) : You use the scriptural definition. You know exactly what commands you broke (e.g., breaking Sabbath, eating unclean), which makes your repentance specific, urgent, and physical. [ ] NO (Counterfeit): You keep your understanding of sin vague and generalized, which allows you to feel "covered by grace" without ever having to stop specific lawless habits. Question 6: The Trampling of the Son The Scriptural Law: “Of how much worse punishment, do you suppose, will he be thought worthy who has trampled the Son of God underfoot, counted the blood of the covenant by which he was sanctified a common thing, and insulted the Spirit of grace?” (Hebrews 10:29). The Question: If you willfully continue in a practice after the written Word has clearly shown you it is an abomination (like eating swine's flesh or celebrating pagan-rooted dates), what are you doing with the blood of Christ? [ ] YES (True Grace): You tremble at this warning. You immediately drop the behavior because you refuse to insult the Spirit of grace by using the Messiah’s death as a license to keep breaking His Father's laws. [ ] NO (Counterfeit): You continue the behavior anyway, assuming the blood of the covenant automatically covers willful, ongoing rebellion because "no one is perfect." Question 7: The Fruit Inspection The Scriptural Law: “Every tree that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire. Therefore by their fruits you will know them.” (Matthew 7:19-20). The Question : If grace is truly living inside you through the Holy Spirit, it must produce visible, physical fruit that looks like the Messiah's lifestyle. Does your daily lifestyle look like the Torah-observant walk of Yeshua? [ ] YES (True Grace): The fruit is evident. Your calendar, your kitchen, your speech, and your behavior have been structurally altered to match the Master's walk. [ ] NO (Counterfeit): Your fruit matches the culture around you. You look, eat, and celebrate just like the world, using the word "grace" to explain away the lack of biblical fruit. Question 8: The "Not Everyone Who Says to Me" Standard The Scriptural Law: “Not everyone who says to Me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ shall enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father in heaven. Many will say to Me in that day, ‘Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in Your name...’ And then I will declare to them, ‘I never knew you; depart from Me, you who practice lawlessness!’” (Matthew 7:21-23). The Question: When you stand before the judgment seat, on what basis do you expect to enter the Kingdom? [ ] YES (True Grace): You trust completely in the grace of the Messiah, which successfully led you to stop practicing lawlessness and instead do the explicit will of the Father. [ ] NO (Counterfeit): You rely on your verbal professions ("Lord, Lord"), your religious activities, or your church attendance, while continuing to live a lifestyle that ignores the written commandments. 🏁 The Ultimate Division True grace is not a tool used to bypass t he Torah; it is the supernatural power that brings you into subjection to it. Every YES is a declaration that the King's authority is absolute over your flesh. Every NO is a warning light that a counterfeit, lawless grace is still comforting you on the road to the harvest of fire. Turn the wheel completely while the gate is still open! 🐐 1. Stumbling in Weakness (Where Grace Abounds) The Father understands that we are dust, and that unlearning the lawless habits of the world takes time. If a person has a sincere heart to obey the Torah, but they slip up due to weakness, ignorance, or an accidental oversight, grace does not leave them. “My little children, these things I write to you, so that you may not sin. And if anyone sins, we have an Advocate with the Father, Yeshua Messiah the righteous.” — 1 John 2:1 (NKJV) In this case, grace is actively working. The Holy Spirit convicts the person’s heart, they experience Godly sorrow, they confess the specific sin, and they physically correct their behavior. Grace remains good because the person is submissive to the discipline of the house. 🐂 2. Walking in Rebellion (Where Grace is Cut Off) The line is crossed when a person receives the knowledge of the truth, looks directly at what the written Word says, and chooses to keep sinning anyway because it is popular, comfortable, or culturally normal. Scripture defines this as presumptuous sin—sinning with a high hand. When a person does this, God does not just passively watch; a precise spiritual hardening takes place. The author of Hebrews lays down the terrifying legal reality of what happens when a believer chooses ongoing, willful lawlessness: “For if we sin willfully after we have received the knowledge of the truth, there no longer remains a sacrifice for sins, but a certain fearful expectation of judgment...” — Hebrews 10:26–27 (NKJV) If there is no longer a sacrifice covering you, it means grace has been removed. You have chosen to walk out from under the Messiah’s blood and back into the prison of the law of sin and death. ⚠️ The Three Steps to the Total Removal of Grace When a believer starts sliding backward into the traditions of the world or the appetites of the flesh, the Father typically follows a clear, merciful, yet severe process before grace is completely extinguished: Step 1: Holy Vexation and Conviction The Holy Spirit stirs up trouble in your conscience. Your prayers feel blocked, your peace disappears, and the written Word starts to bite whenever you read it. This is God’s grace trying to pull you back. If you harden your neck here, you move to Step 2. Step 2: Severe Divine Discipline The Father begins to physically shake your life to wake you up. He may allow financial distress, family friction, or the loss of worldly comforts to show you that Egypt has nothing for you. As Hebrews states: "For whom the Lord loves He chastens..." (Hebrews 12:6). This discipline is a severe form of grace designed to smash your pride. Step 3: Giving Over to a Reprobate Mind If a person fights through the conviction, ignores the discipline, and insists on keeping their pagan traditions, their unclean foods, or their worldly compromises, the Father will eventually lift His hand completely. He stops correcting them, stops disciplining them, and hands them over to their own delusions. “And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a debased mind, to do those things which are not fitting.” — Romans 1:28 (NKJV) When God "gives someone over," it is the ultimate removal of grace. They can now sin comfortably without feeling any guilt, thinking they are perfectly fine, completely unaware that they are tracking straight toward the harvest of fire detailed in Isaiah 66. Question 13: What Happens When You Twist the Wheel? The Setup: David prayed a critical prayer in Psalm 19:13: “Keep back Your servant also from presumptuous sins; let them not have dominion over me.” The Question: When the light of the Torah exposes a specific sin or worldly tradition currently sitting in your home, what is your immediate, physical reaction? [ ] YES (Under Active Grace): Your heart breaks, you take immediate accountability, and you physically cast the compromise out of your gates, proving that the Spirit of grace is alive and ruling your flesh. [ ] NO (Risking the Removal of Grace): You pacify your mind with excuses, delay the physical cleaning of your house, or assume that "God understands my situation," stepping directly onto the dangerous path of willful defiance. 🏁 The Summary Line God does not remove grace because you are imperfect; He removes grace when you become unteachable. If you can look at a command and refuse to change your lifestyle to match it, you are insulting the Spirit of grace. Turn the wheel completely while you still feel the sharp bite of conviction—because the only thing worse than the discipline of the Father is His silence.
