Description
of the Believer – The Make-Believer – The Plan
First Word
There is some Bad News about
the Good News which is not spoken of very much in the Church today. Oddly
enough; Jesus taught more about Hell than he did about Heaven, the Doctrine of Hell has disappeared from the pulpit and no one has even
noticed.
Hell has been relegated to a corner of the relic
room in a rarely visited museum. We are taught
that ALL WE NEED IS LOVE and a positive self-image.
Our calling is
not to taste good like HONEY;
but to bring
stinging SALT that heals wounds.
In an interview; Baptist Sunday School
Teacher President
Jimmy Carter said that in “his opinion”
in our society today, Jesus would have approved of GAY Marriages. This certainly flies in the face of scripture;[1] re-labeling
a cup of poison to say COOL-AID does not make it
any less lethal, it just makes it more attractive. If a doctor misdiagnoses a disease, it could
have serious consequences; a person could die.
The same thing applies to a misdiagnoses
of the disease of SIN; it’s SPIRITUAL
MALPRACTICE. As a Nation we have a desire to show only the
LOVING side of God and not
the WRATH side.[2]
The Book says that in the beginning, GOD made
man in His own image; but today MAN is making God in his own image; an imaginary deity
of his own creation.
Universalism
Universalism
is a doctrine that in its simplest form states that, because God is a God of
Love, that “IN THE END” all people will
be saved and gathered together
into Heaven, therefore there cannot be a place which contains a Chamber of Horrors like hell that has infinite (long term)
punishing
for a finite (short term) mistake.
The earliest expression of Universalism
came out of the mouth of Satan when he said; “You will not surely die”.[3] Jesus Himself planted a fence post when He
said, NOT everyone that says “Lord, Lord” will
enter the kingdom of Heaven.[4] So according to Jesus; ALL WILL NOT BE SAVED.[5]
Here’s
the scary one, the Disciples asked Jesus, “Lord, will those who are saved be few?”
And he said to them, “Strive to enter through the narrow door;[6] for many, I tell you, will seek to enter and will not be able. Jesus will say, “I tell you, I do not know you”. Once the Master who has the keys, shuts the
door, no one can open it and enter.[7]
Remember
Noah’s Ark, God in His mercy and Love, left the door of the Ark open one
additional week for any that would come; then GOD SHUT THE DOOR and those that finally had a change in
heart could not
enter.
Those on the outside of the door will
insist that they be escorted into the Kingdom on their own merits; on the basis of what
they have done; their
WORKS. Confessing with your Mouth that Jesus is Lord
does not automatically bring Salvation. You must
confess with your mouth and BELIEVE in your heart that God raised
Jesus from the dead. Even the Demons believe that Jesus is Lord; but
they just simply do not accept it.[8] NOTE: The
demons in scripture are doomed, they were expecting torment from Christ,[9]
not Salvation;
read it for yourself, it’s in the Book.
The Gift of Salvation
is not to be taken lightly; it’s not just name it and
claim it,
or BLAB it and GRAB it, you should work out your own salvation
with fear and trembling before God;[10] the
road is hard to eternal life and the gate is narrow and FEW find it; but if you seek it, you WILL find it.[11]
Second Chance
Postmortem
Conversion is the term that is used for someone who has died and
gets a second
chance to accept Jesus Christ as the Son of God. PC
supporters hang their hat on the scriptures that says “How can they believe in Him of whom they have
never heard”[12]
and the second scripture indicating that Jesus went to the lower parts of the earth; to HELL and preached to them;
they believed and all went to heaven.[13]
Point
of Inquiry: I must point out that at death, everyone has already been
judged.[14] There is a HOLDING
TANK called Hell with
two compartments; Torment for the un-believer and Paradise
for the believer. From the beginning of
time the bad
guys accumulated in torment
on one side of a great gulf in Hell and the good guys from
all time since creation that were in the “FRIENDSHIP” of God gathered
on the other side in a place called “Abraham’s Bosom” or Paradise. They already believed in the One God of Creation,[15]
but had not heard the “good news” of the Son of God; the Messiah.
Jesus preached, they believed, and He not
only took them to Heaven,[16]
but took the whole compartment called Paradise with Him, this enlarged Hell for
more unbelievers. Everyone had already
been judged at their death long before Jesus preached to them about the “Good News”.
That’s
why they were already in “the holding
tank” of Paradise.
God points out that if man knew nothing
else; just by looking at God’s creations he would be able to know God.[17] God has been clearly revealed and man is WITHOUT EXCUSE.[18] The Book says
to set your house in order BEFORE you die.
THERE IS NO SECOND CHANCE; there’s just
more Good
News and more Bad News.
A Make-believer is
someone who confesses with their mouth Jesus is Lord, but
their lives are not conformed to His Image;[19]
there is no fruit, they are no better off than the Demons
that believe, but have no good Works. You
don’t do good works to be saved, you do good works because you are saved.
Neutralism
Neutralism;
I just made that word up, this is when someone says they don’t think about God
one way or the other; they are just neutral; maybe there is a god; maybe
there’s not.
Man is already destined to a horrible
place and needs to be rescued; first there is Hell and then after that, the Lake of Fire.[20] This is a terrible state of affairs; man is perishing
for lack of knowledge[21]
and as watchmen on the wall, we must sound the alarm to save all who “WILL”
hear
the trumpet call.
A day will come when the Good will rise
to life and the Evil will rise to be condemned.
Reaching out to save someone from
indescribable, eternal destruction is serious stuff for the Believer. God says that we are either Weeds or
Wheat;
Goat
or Sheep,
that we cannot be neutral, you have already made your decision, whoever is not
for Him is against Him,[22]
Whoever does not believe is condemned
already.[23]
Annihilationist
The Question has always been;
how can a loving God make anyone go through eternal terror, pain, torment and
punishment forever? An Annihilationist is someone who believes that
when an UNBELIEVER dies; he goes
to hell and
is destroyed,
burned up and ceases to exist.
My youngest sarcastically said, “Hey, I will take
that deal; you can sin all you want and the only consequence there is; is that you
will cease to exist;” what a Deal;
Down, Dead and Done.
My oldest
maturely responded, “We were ALL made in the image of the Immortal God and the
Believer will become like Him; immortal;
All men have the potential to be Immortal.
I would have considered myself as an Annihilationist
until I spent time studying this subject in the Book. I have included in this commentary my
comments and scriptures that would have SUPPORTED the “Annihilation
Doctrine” even though now I refute it; here we go…
It’s only “The
Fire” that is unquenchable and Eternal, and it’s “the smoke” that rises forever, NOT the punishment.
Eternal Punishment
vs: Eternal Punishing,[24]
Eternal Damnation, Annihilation, Total
Destruction,[25]
Thrown Away, Burned Up; these are all words that indicate the Finality of Death for
the wicked.
The term ETERNAL is not speaking
of its duration, but its permanent results,
its finality. They will be forever CONSUMED, not forever TORMENTED. Eternal denotes that it’s all over, no more
chances; the wicked will NOT EXIST anymore. They will be completely
destroyed,[26]
Cut off,[27] Broken, Perish[28] Consumed, Burned like in an oven, [29] Stubble leaving
neither root nor branch.[30] God’s
Final punishment is NOT a vindictive punishment, but is the permanent annihilation of sin,
because GOD IS LOVE.
I embraced all of this because of the Bible scriptures…
But for some reason all of the fence post of these scriptures did not line up
with the fence post of the rest of the Bible.
Is the
Bible self-contradictory?
Either I am wrong; the Bible is wrong
or I am interpreting it wrong.
Did Christ
cease to exist when He died? The Bible says NO,
He was NOT annihilated, but went down into the
earth, into Hell and then was resurrected on the third day. [31]
If Christ ceased to exist, so would the trinity.
The Annihilation doctrine comes from the belief that God is only a GOD
OF LOVE, therefore He has NO WRATH. Our BS,
our Belief System
looks for a “loophole” in scripture to
escape Hell. This desire is from our own
imaginary mind in an effort to get relief from the thoughts of Eternal Punishment, this BS is a lie born out of the pit of Hell to deceive
us.
The Seven Fence Post of
Christ
Jesus
placed a fence post in the ground when He said SEVEN TIMES that the wicked
will be cast out into outer darkness where there will be weeping and gnashing
of teeth. This
is spoken of in the present and
continuance tense; SEVEN is the number of completeness.
This weeping and wailing is both the emotional
and physical condition of the rejected man.
I would like to point out that the gnashing of teeth is
more than just pain, it is the continued blasphemous words of defiance still
being uttered and directed toward God; the tears comes NOT from
repentance, but from relentless pain.
Outer darkness is worse than the
physical pain of Hell, it is the total SEPARATION from God.
Post 1 - Matthew 8:12 – Weeping and gnashing of teeth
12 while the sons of the kingdom will be
thrown into the outer darkness. In that place there will be weeping and
gnashing of teeth.” (ESV)
Post 2 - Matthew 22:13 –
Weeping and gnashing of teeth
13 Then
the king said to the attendants, ‘Bind him hand and foot and cast him into the
outer darkness. In that place there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.’ (ESV)
Post 3 - Matthew 24:51 - Weeping and gnashing of teeth
51 and will
cut him in pieces and put him with the hypocrites. In that place there will be weeping and
gnashing of teeth. (ESV)
Post 4 - Matthew 25:30 - Weeping and gnashing of teeth
30 And cast
the worthless servant into the outer darkness. In that place there will be weeping and
gnashing of teeth.’ (ESV)
Post 5 - Luke 13:28 -Weeping
and gnashing of teeth
28 In that
place there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth, when you see
Abraham and Isaac and Jacob and all the prophets in the kingdom of God but you
yourselves cast out. (ESV)
Post 6 - Matthew 13:42 - WAILING and gnashing of teeth
42 and will
cast them into the furnace of fire. There will be wailing and gnashing of teeth. (NKJV)
Post 7 - Matthew 13:50 - WAILING and gnashing of teeth
50 and cast
them into the furnace of fire. There will be wailing and gnashing of teeth."
(NKJV)
ECP
Eternal Conscious Punishment:
There is a view that ONLY the
believer will have eternal life. This is true, eternal life is a gift from
Jesus Christ that the Un-believer does not receive,[32]
but that does not mean the un-believer ceases to exist. Life and death are both forms of existence; the unbeliever will still exist and stand at his
own judgment.[33]
In the Story of Lazarus and the rich man, we
find Lazarus in a section of Hell know as Paradise or Abraham’s bosom and the rich man on the other side of Hell known
as torment
with a great gulf fixed between the two.
It should be noted that they both still
existed, this would rule out the doctrine of “Annihilation”, which I formally
embraced as truth.
This parable is believed to be a true story since this is the only time a person was
specifically named in one of the parables told by Jesus. In the story of the three Hebrew boys cast
bound into the fiery furnace; by God’s design they were unbound, walking
around, unhurt and their clothes didn’t even smell like smoke.[34]
Did you see it? God can cause
people to exist un-consumed, even in a burning fire that was stoked seven times
hotter than normal. Seven is “completeness”, meaning Nebuchadnezzar making the fire seven
times as hot, was making it as hot as he possibly could.[35] In the story of Moses, the burning bush by
design was not
consumed.[36]
Scripture teaches that by God’s will,
design and plan, that in Hell’s fire even
the worm does not die.[37] There is endless food provided by the
un-believing wicked and the fire is never quenched; it is ETERNAL CONSCIOUS PUNISHMENT.
This Eternal Fire was not prepared for
man, but for Satan and his angels,[38]
however those that rebel like Satan and his Angels will inherit their same
fate. The Bible refers to them as those on His LEFT; the cursed,
the goats, the tares, the weeds. (Interestingly, today we refer
to those on the LEFT as extremist
and those on the RIGHT as
conservative.)
To make it clear, GOD said the unbeliever will be in un-ending misery,
tormented day and night, forever and ever. A Non-entity cannot
receive punishment; a punishment that cannot be felt is not punishment.
Punishment is indescribable suffering;
suffering is pain, the un-believer is an “entity” in ETERNAL
CONSCIOUS PUNISHMENT. [39]
Degrees of Punishment
Although Hell is Hell;
if it is of any conciliation to you; Hell will be worse for some people than
for others.[40]
There will be degrees of punishment to look forward to.
The
more that you have been given, the more that will be required of you, [41] the
more you know, but did not act on, the more severe will be your punishment.
Based on degrees of
culpability, there will be so to speak,
“few lashes”
vs; “many
lashes” of the whip.[42]
Terminology
To destroy something
is to ruin it or make it unfit for that which it is was originally designed to
be or do. A Car that has been compacted
FLAT can no longer function as a car, but it
does not cease to exist. A Soul is
utterly destroyed, ruined, made unfit for what it was created when it is cast
into utter darkness and separated from the light of God; it is destroyed, but
it still exists. Forever and Ever is used over and over to emphasize the concept of ETERNITY.
Limited Eternity:
You cannot limit the duration of punishment
for the un-believer without limiting the duration of eternal life for
the believer; they are both FOREVER.
Hell
is both a “State” and a “Place”.
A
State:
You have lost the blessings of God and are out of His presence and His light;
in darkness where you are cursed and condemned.
A
Place: A
prison where you are in indescribable ceaseless misery and torment day and night, forever and ever and ever. A place without hope; only
tears of pain and voices of rebellion. Satan, Fallen
Angels, Demons, Unbelievers and Make-believers are not the
same, all have different natures, however make no mistake, they will all share
in the same ultimate fate; the Lake of Fire.
I would like to point out here that Satan is not in charge of Hell; he is just one of the boys in TORMENT; he can change nothing.
The Nature of God
God is Omni-present;
He is present in Hell, NOT his light
nor His Love,
but the absence of his Light, leaving only the Darkness and His WRATH. God
cannot act contrary to His Holy nature, therefore there are some things God
cannot do; He
cannot Lie nor break His covenant. In Him there is no variation or changing of
His Nature.[43]
God Hates Sin because sin comes from Satan and Satan is the Father of
Sin. When we are born we are born in Sin; that makes Satan our
Father, therefore we need to be “Born Again” through the Son of God.
Jesus Christ appeared to destroy the sinful works of Satan.[44] God made Christ, who never sinned, to be the
offering for our sin, so that we could be made right with God through Christ.[45]
The Omnipotence of God: God has
after a fashion, restricted His own
Omnipotence (all-powerfulness) by the very act
of creating man with FREE WILL; the ability to choose. Because of Free Will the
people in His own home town CHOOSE to NOT believe in Jesus the Christ,
the Son of the living God; so with so little FAITH,
He could do no mighty work there.[46]
The Ultimate work of the Cross is the Love of Christ summoning us to Repentance
and to Faith.
It’s the trumpet call of the night watchman;[47] you
can WAKE UP and get ready or you can go back to sleep. The Watchman has done His part, the rest is up
to you. In the tribology movie THE MATRIX, Neo is told; “I can only show you
the door, YOU MUST DECIDE to go through it.”
God’s Wrath
I
dug out my basement and built a retaining wall with cement blocks. One night after a big rain, I heard very low frequency
sounds coming from my basement which I could feel lying in my bed; deep sounds
like the breaking of bones. Water had
accumulated behind my new walls and slowly began to bow it out. First just a quarter of an inch, then the
rain filled that up and then it moved out another quarter of an inch till
finally so much water had continued to accumulate behind the wall that it
pushed down the whole wall moving all the furniture in front of it… What a disaster…
God’s Wrath is accumulating behind the walls of our society and we can already see the cracks,
and one day if we do not shore up the wall with repentance and prayer,
HIS WRATH[48] will burst through with fury; there in NO DOUBT;[49] it’s in the Book.
God is not a harmless God; He executed
those who presumptuously touched His Ark.[50] Jesus overthrew the loan shark’s tables in the
temple and then threw the merchants out.[51]
Our problem is we just don’t HATE sin like God Hates sin. In
the past God has cut loose a company of destroying angels that made a path for
his WRATH.[52] The purpose of God’s wrath is not so much to punish, but to REFORM;
to ultimately produce GOOD[53], because God
takes no pleasure in the death of the Wicked.[54] God’s Wrath is actually a COURSE CORRECTOR of Love. [55]
The
Make Believer
Sunday
Christian: A follower of Christ can go to Sunday School and
Church, sing the songs of Praise, enter
into prayer, be a part of laying hands on the sick, see the Holy Spirit at work in healings and miracles, taste the
sweetness of communion with the other saints… And still not be a part of the Faith.
This week in Charleston, SC; a young man
worshipped and prayed for an hour in church and then killed nine of the people who welcomed him into their congregation.
How can you fall away from the Faith? The Bible teaches that once you are
saved you are always saved. As
Jesus taught His followers, they experienced the miracles of healings; the
casting out of demons; the feeding of thousands and tasted the power of the Holy Spirit;
but at some point they could not spiritually discern His teachings which caused them to WALK AWAY.[56]
IT IS IMPOSSIBLE for someone
like this, within their own ability and power to come back to the Faith;[57]
except by the GRACE
of Jesus Christ, with Him all things are possible.[58] According to the Book, the rain waters ALL the soil, some good and some not so good.[59] Some bring forth good vegetation and some
bring up worthless weeds, thorns and thistles; but both got the same water.
A
True Believer will not leave the Faith; a Make-Believer will; this proves that they were never a part of the Faith to
begin with. How can you know if you are
a True
Believer? God said, you will
know a True
Believer by their fruits’; their
actions.[60]
Take a close look at your “check book”;
listen to your speech
and your SONGS; look at your activities;
do they honor God or bring shame?
The FRUIT
of the Spirit has nine
expressions; but all nine of them are exhibited as just ONE fruit: Love, Joy, Peace,
Patience, Kindness, Goodness, Faithfulness, Gentleness and Self-Control.[61] They
are utilized along with the GIFTS of the Spirit
for the perfecting of the Saints and the building up of the Church body.[62] Therein lies the question; does your actions build
up the Church and strive for the perfection that is offered through Jesus
Christ?
When Adam and Eve sinned they DID
NOT CONFESS their sin and seek forgiveness, instead they BLAMED each other as well as GOD
for their actions. Obedience brings Mercy & Blessings; disobedience brings
Judgment.
Lip Service: Are you just
going through the motions, having only “a form of Godliness”?[63] Is God’s word spoken through your mouth,
but not spoken in your actions?
We are told to examine ourselves before we take part in communion;[64]
do we have unconfessed sin? Do we need a
“course
correction” in our life?
God does not have any STEP
CHILDREN; only Children.
You are NOT a child of God
because your Mama is, life is Choice Driven. Are you a Believer or a Make-Believer?
Description of a Believer
How can you identify a
Christian? You will know them by their fruits, their works;[65] your
checkbook will tell you where your heart is. We do NOT do good WORKS to BE
saved; we do good
WORKS because we ARE
saved.
The
Sermon on the Mount is not about
promises of blessings to the child of God, but is a DESCRIPTION of the child of
God.[66] NOTE: Seven in the Bible is the number for
completeness.
1)
They
are not proud in spirit; they know that they are spiritually bankrupt
and can offer God nothing.
2)
They
mourn over perishing souls; they anguish over sins of others, they want
righteousness to prevail and have compassion for injustice and afflictions.
3)
They
are meek, mild and kind; bearing patiently. They do not murmur or
seek power and they accept opposition, insults and provocations.
4)
They
Hunger and thirst to do God’s will; to know Christ
and to make Christ known.
5)
They
are merciful
because they themselves have received mercy and compassion and show this compassion
and mercy even when it not convenient. They do not show mercy to get mercy.
6)
They
are pure in heart with singleness of purpose, there is no hidden
motives or self-interest, they are utterly sincere in their faith.
7)
They
are peacemakers, not only keeping the peace, but bringing men into harmony
with each other. They Work to calm the
waters fulling knowing that many will resent their efforts.
The Plan
God
has put into effect the Plan of Salvation and has offered it freely to
all; some by their own FREE WILL choice will ultimately
reject it. No one is “forced”
to receive the Free
Gift to enter the family of God;
your Life is Choice Driven.
The Holy Spirit plants the Seed within the
Believer, We
get to water it and God does the harvesting as He separates the
weeds from the wheat. Sadly;
even though the Seed is sown in all people, some hearts are just too hard for
the seed to take root, people are just too concerned with the cares of this
world enabling Satan to steal their seed.[67]
Does
unbelief in God nullify His existence?[68] Shake your fist
in the air, kick up dust, tear your clothes, shout obscenities; none of this
nullifies the existence God.
The Atheist would say, “Show me where God is” and I would say, “Show me where
God isn’t”.
The Grand Reunion is when our
spirit personalities re-unite with our bodies; some old,
some new and spend everlasting eternity somewhere. The eternal destiny of the individual soul is
settled, established and fixed before his death and is irrevocable. We will have Infinite happiness or indescribable distress; all who are in hell have
chosen it.
The Decision to follow Christ is not “Fire Insurance” to find a “loop hole”
to avoid Hell,
but is the seriousness of living out a life that is pleasing to God. It’s not enough that the Believer has been
saved from the fate of Hell; but they are also called to mourn over perishing
souls, to anguish over sin, to want righteousness to prevail, to have
compassion for injustice and afflictions, to reach out in tears, prayers and
actions to those who are still perishing in an effort to keep their name from
being blotted out of the BOOK OF
LIFE.
The wages of sin is death and one day
there will be a PAY DAY.[69]
Everyone’s name has already been written in the BOOK OF LIFE, but it’s up to us individually to CHOOSE
whether our name stays there or is blotted out.[70]
By your words you are acquitted or condemned
But
I tell you that men will have to give account on the Day of Judgment
for
every careless (blasphemous)
word they have spoken.
For
by your words you will be acquitted,
and
by your words you will be condemned. [71]
