Salvation is not what you do for God, but rather, its what God did for you, as a GIFT.
And what is that?
Its this.
You live here, down here, where sinners live, and all around you is a "world system" that is a secularized Christ rejecting, "secular" ideology.
God does not.. He lives where sin does not exist, and Holiness is Life, and Truth is Light.
A.) In Heaven
B.) In the Kingdom of God
C.) In all the Born again who are the sinless "Temple of the Holy Spirit".
Saint..
Let me show you some things , for the benefit of those who think you are a sinner, yet born again, and for the benefit of those who are not Christians and found this Thread.
Remember that Lucifer was "cast out of heaven"? ????
Why?
Because iniquity (sin) was found IN Him.
And iniquity was found in other Angelic beings who bowed to Him and were cast out with Him.
Jesus said He saw this take place, literally.
So, this is "sin" found in the devil, and sin can't co-exist where God is found.
= So, Out goes the sinner, the Devil.
Now, If you are born again, God is IN you, and God does not exist where sin is found.
See that?
So, you consider that when you consider your situation, if you are born again and think you are a sinner..., and correct your wrong believing.
If you are born again, you are "IN Christ" and there is no Sin found there.
So, what is salvation? What is "Being Saved"? What is : 'Jesus SAVES"?
Its this:
Its Jesus Saving you....by taking the punishment for your sin, and giving you eternal life in place of your sin.
ITs that simple.
Its God , The Word, coming down here to personally resolve your sin issue, your unrighteousness issue, by making you Righteous ... = born again.
God made you righteous "while you were yet a sinner".... God "justifies the ungodly"....so, that is in ALL cases......at all times.... if you are born again.
You were a sinner, based on what you are, and God made you Born Again, based on what Christ did for you, 2000 yrs ago.
See it?
God made you holy, if you are born again......you are the "righteousness of God in Christ", and you will remain so for as long as God is in you, and that will only be for as long as God lives.
That is called ETERNAL LIFE, and eternal life is not temporary, and its not affected by your misbehavior or your carnal "works of the flesh".
Sinners down here......are ALL offered by God a WAY to become a part of God's family up there.
= SALVATION...... BORN AGAIN.
And you can become a part of it down here. And how?
Jesus said....>"You MUST be born again", and that is how you do it.
And if you are not born again, if you are just water baptized....then that is what is keeping you out of "up there"..... currently out of God's Family.
John 3:36
Listen...
If you not a part of God's family, right now, Its because of your SIN.
Unforgiven Sin keeps you out of God's family, until your sin is resolved by being forgiven and forgotten, = Born again.
You can't resolve it, as you have commited it.... you've sinned.
You're a sinner, until the day that God makes you "the righteousness of GOD, in Christ., = Born again.
So,
Listen... God has resolved your sin, 2000 yrs ago, and offers this eternal resolution as a GIFT to you. Its a A Love Gift.
John 3:16 is a Love Gift.
Salvation is a love gift.
Eternal life is a love gift.
If you take God's Gift, if you turn to the Cross and in faith receive God's resolution of your sin, then your sin is resolved as if you've never sinned, and you are kept this way, 'in Christ". REDEEEMED.... BY God's eternal solution, which is the Blood of Jesus.
Philippians 1:6
What is that solution?
Philippians 1:6
Its the CROSS, its the Death of God on the Cross and its the resurrection of God as proof He has resolved your unrighteousness.
The Cross is the bridge that God Built between you and Himself, ONLY using Jesus's Blood, Death, and that Cross, and resurrection.
Its literally an eternal bridge that reconnects you to GOD, if you will go there and get on it.
How do you get it?
By Trusting in Christ to save you.
By taking Jesus into your heart, by FAITH,....... by receiving Jesus.
The NT speaks of "repenting"....and this is specific type...Its to turn from unbelief TO Belief in Christ.
If you take Jesus by faith, God takes you by promise. = Born again, AS "the righteousness of God in Christ.
You are then made righteous and kept so by the same EVENT (Born Again)....Supplied by God's Blood as "the Gift of Righteousness".... "The Gift of Salvation"..
--------------
So, did you notice that all that = is God doing something for you?
Its all OF GOD, given, given, given, as THE GIFT of Love. = The GIFT of Salvation.
Its a GIFT.
Christ on the Cross is God's Love Gift to this world........to you.
Do you have this Gift?
------------------------------------
Ok,
you have to see the GIFT of Salvation, that its a GIFT.... to see what is wrong with any self righteousness ideas that lead you away from the saving Grace of God and into trying to work to keep yourself saved, as to come into this wrong believing is to "fall from Grace".
In other words, you have to know what is right, to see what is wrong, and that is how you protect yourself from deceivers and also from self righteousness.
You have to understand that you, as the born again... "present your body a living sacrifice" because God has made you RIGHTEOUS, already.
You have to understand that Discipleship is your existing in the Righteousness of God, because you already have it at all times, or you would not be born again.
So, do you have God's Righteousness?
Yes you do, if you are born again.
--------------------------------------------
Now, how do you become an "enemy of the Cross" while being born again?
= This happens to a believer when their subverted faith has replaced God's Love GIFT... with self effort.. (self righteousness).
Those who teach this false theology, are trying to put the Christian on the Cross, as an obedience type of self effort (self saving) that has replaced Truth and God's Grace, with self righteousness.
Listen....If you contradict God's Salvation with a belief or teaching that flips Salvation into a "do this to keep yourself saved".... self effort situation, = then you become an enemy of the Cross, if you teach that theology.
Something to remember....>Jesus is LORD....>He is Lord of All.
He is always THE LORD, of all, no matter if a person trusts Him or hates Him.
Jesus becomes our personal savior when we Trust Him, but his Lordship, is universal, and its eternal.
""""""All power is given to Jesus in Heaven and on Earth. """"
This world does not see Jesus as The Lord, Yet Christ is already Lord of All, and every Christ Rejecting knee will one day bow and by tongue confess Him as Lord.
Believe it.
The Cross is a GIFT from God to the World, to everyone. "to as many as will come" "to ALL who will believe". "For God so loved the WORLD that He GAVE"..... and that offer of the Blood of JESUS is to all of us, everywhere, at all times.
That Cross is God saying......"COME HOME", = Everyone.
Jesus is the door who is the only Way to God.
John 14:6
There are many false teachings that try to take God's Gift of Salvation away , by replacing it with self effort.
Christian Forums are infected with this blasphemy.
Pulpits around the world have ripped Jesus off the nails with their self saving theology of : "do-ism to be saved and STAY saved".
Saint.... there are many subverted and twisted teaching's... that pretend to be "christian", but they are really a complete rejection of God's love and mercy and Grace.
They all try to replace God's Salavtion that HE Supplies... with self effort to get God to take you OR to keep you after all of this is already resolved, once and for all, by being born again.
Note those who teach "self effort" as salvation, and mark these dark lights well.
Salvation is not what you do for God, but rather, its what God did for you, as a GIFT.
And what is that?
Its this.
