Part 1 of 2
One of the best things religions are great at is “inductive reasoning”, “expository reading”(resulting in incorrect interpretations), “adding rules, conditions, and rituals to their beliefs (which many restrict salvation without observing these men’s laws of the church)”, and “ANTI-truth interpretations of GOD’S CHARACTER which equals to SUBJECTIVE reality to God [not from God but “TO GOD”]!
The most ironic is “subjective reality” which includes “PERSONAL” involvement; yet, IT DOES NOT INVOLVE A REALITY OF A PERSONAL RELATIONSHIP WITH GOD! See a person can “feel loved” or “feel emotional in some manner” about the circumstances involving “MORAL ISSUES” (they are claiming has God involved); but, it completely does not.
The church, any Christian church, recites the good old cliche salvation comes with a “personal relationship of Christ”! What they can not explain is what that is! How is that? I have literally heard, “you know, you just know”. Or, “you feel different inside”. What the heck!? God is now a “SUBJECTIVE THING EQUAL TO AN EMOTION”!?
Where is the church at teaching TRUTH?
IF a person accepting Christ is a very young person, a teenager, or maybe a young adult I might understand the Biblical ignorance of that person having a very lacking understanding of “what the scripture says about “ASSURANCE OF SALVATION” COMINGLED with IMMATURE EXPERIENCE with God; but, to actually have NOT BEEN TAUGHT WITH SCRIPTURE WHAT TO EXPECT WITH A SOLID PLAN OF GROWING IS AN ##EPIC FAILURE!## of the church, its leaders specifically!
Google, call your preacher, ask your Bible study leader what does the BIBLE SAY about “A PERSONAL RELATIONSHIP”! It is more important than saying a Bible verse and getting baptized to the claim of a person “BEING SAVED”! Ask how the Old Testament people who were “Christian” had a personal relationship WITH JESUS!
IF THEY CAN NOT TELL YOU, they must have a different plan of salvation than the one GOD introduced as the foundation of creation!
Ask them if “God changes”?
If they say, “yes”! WALK THE HECK AWAY!!!!!
DO NOT GET ANY MORE BIBLICAL ADVICE FROM THEM!
GOD does NOT change!
Man’s wisdom and knowledge changes!
Man’s ability to have a relationship with a HOLY GOD changes!
Man is not born a medical doctor!
Adam basically was a medical doctor BEFORE eating ” knowledge”! His medical advice was “NOT” eat an apple to keep the doctor away; but, eat an apple to get sick! The point is since the curse of “so-called knowledge” man MUST STUDY ( work ) in EVERY ASPECT OF LIFE to become “………………”! (that is an engineer, a teacher, a doctor, a nurse, anything, including a CHRISTIAN! God has supplied a book of schooling about everything dealing with “CHRISTIANITY”! If you do not read it and accept it, you FAIL! Learning about God is not a SPOONFUL OF “A GOOD FEELING”! Knowledge of God comes from him talking to you! Do you have a parent, brother, or sister, or a friend? You become friends by talking and communicating to them! It is a lot easier than any of those relationships! Why? This friend (God) IS ALWAYS 100% CORRECT! When you argue, you lose!
He never quits! You lose, and you have to submit to TRUTH or you will continue to be like a pre-kindergarten student even if you reach the age of 80. God is Holy! God does not change! God was the same God before he created anything! Any books you find that tell you God has changed or worked differently with different people during different times you need TO BURN THAT BOOK AND IDEOLOGY FROM YOUR MIND, AND HEART! They are liars!!!! WARNING!!!! WARNING!!!
DISPENSATIONALISM DOES JUST THAT!
CALVINISM DOES JUST THAT!!!
People, in general, look at junk on TV and hear JUNK! People think society has grown in knowledge and God has “RESPONDED” in a like manner. Did calculus change? Did the physics change? Did biology change? Whether you believe in creation or Darwin Evolutionism you would be much more intelligent to admit that if anything happened the world has gone from fewer diseases to more and more severe. Also, the proof of biology in such things as animals (dinosaurs) have gone from gigantic to tiny which can only be due to better climate, better food, less extinct causing factors such as diseases and mankind destroying forest areas. The point is like knowledge, true and pure health and wellness has actually gotten worse not better for plants, animals and humans! Quality of life is a perspective and not based upon better DNA of any living thing!
An example, look at our society with hospitals, modern medicine, phones, cars, planes, and air conditioning! All these “better” qualities of life, in general, MAKE YOUR FLESH THINK GOD has changed as if to say “MORE GRACE”! NO! AIR CONDITIONING is a blessing for man’s flesh; but, it is COMPLETELY WRONG TO CONSIDER GOD IS GIVING “MORE GRACE” WITH SUCH AN ASPECT OF AIR CONDITIONING OR ANYTHING ELSE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
WHO HE IS CAN NOT BE STUDIED BACKWARDS FROM MAN’S PERSPECTIVE BASED UPON THE WAY MAN’S LIVING CONDITIONS HAS CHANGED!!!! That ideology is from Satan! Man has looked at “grace” as a study of backward “flesh conditions”!
Here is a great example of “flesh” interpreting scripture: John 16:”A woman when she is in travail hath sorrow, because her hour is come: but as soon as she is delivered of the child, she remembereth no more the anguish, for joy that a man is born into the world. And ye now, therefore, have sorrow: but I will see you again, and your heart shall rejoice, and your joy no man taketh from you.”
John 16:21-22 KJV
There is another example where Jesus quotes “the hearts” of the men standing in front of him:”But he answered and said, It is not meet to take the children’s bread, and to cast it to dogs.
Matthew 15:26 KJV
Both times Jesus is “USING THE SUBJECT OF THE FLESH, NOT THE SPIRITUAL!!!! Jesus tells the disciples “His FLESH” must depart so that Jesus can leave his “SPIRIT”! When a man concentrates on THE FLESH SIDE OF ANY SITUATION YOU USE THE WEAK, THE SINFUL, AND THE DEFEATED SIDE OF ALL CIRCUMSTANCES!!!!!!!!!!!! PETER SUNK as he concentrated on all the aspects of the flesh.
101 Bible: GOD IS God the Father, Jesus and the Holy Spirit! What does the aspects of God have to do with our spiritual relationship? Does your spirit need cars, hospitals, air conditioning or a cell phone to better communicate or have a personal relationship with GOD?
When the people got snake bitten and asked God to heal them there were no ambulances, educated EMT’s, hospitals or modern medicine? BUT GOD’S GRACE WAS SUFFICIENT JUST LIKE NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!
REMEMBER THAT POINT!
GOD’S grace has NOT CHANGED!!
I, like most likely you, am glad about the air conditioning; but, thank yo, Jesus, God is NOT making our SPIRITUAL LIFE any different than when it was in the Old Testament. WHAT IS DIFFERENT THEN? THE EXACT SAME COMPARISION AS THE AMBULANCE, EMT, HOSPITAL AND MODERN MEDICINE WITH THE KNOWLEDGE OF GOD!
See God limited man’s knowledge with certain aspects of God like modern medicine! Just because man did not know about penicillin did not make God’s “Old Ways” less capable. Mn compares everything to God as though he got smarter in time! God had all the physics, all the medicine, all the inventions, everything that as needed “FOR THE TIME AS MAN OBSERVED IT” completely THE SAME AS NOW! What has been so confusing is the misinformation we have been feed! Millions of examples could be presented here but the one needed is the application of “SALVATION” HAS NOT CHANGED like the mode of transportation. Man use to travel and he still does! The principles from “the doctrine of men” say, the man was limited to traveling and COULD NOT TRAVEL LIKE NOW! That perspective makes a man a God with “subjective reality” every man back then NEEDED AIRPLANES! WHO SAID? WHERE WOULD THEY LAND? Men have brought EMOTIONS AND twenty-first century thinking to a time machine and crammed it in with God and sent him back to 1500BC and called crazy for limiting those people with what we have! Methuselah lived 969 years old. His sandals may have lasted for a hundred years! For a fact, the Israelites’ clothes and sandals lasted 40 years in extreme conditions. Today, in comparison, they would not last 6 months!
“And I have led you forty years in the wilderness: your clothes are not waxen old upon you, and thy shoe is not waxen old upon thy foot.”
Deuteronomy 29:5 KJV
The perspective of God has become a grossly subjective view with ignorance of scripture and learned misinterpretations! Here is a sneak peak to the next part in understanding how a man can be “assured of salvation” WITHOUT SUBJECTIVITY! ALSO, understand God (God has NEVER BEEN PIECES- as though there are three who come “as created” like a human), God the Father, Jesus and the Holy Spirit were all in the Old Testament just as much as the new! Thirdly, a person CAN NOT go to heaven without a personal relationship with Jesus! Those in the Old Testament will stand with Christ and Christ will validate his relationship with them as much as with anyone after his resurrection!
