Paul did not preach a different gospel

There is only one gospel that saves and

that is the gospel of Jesus Christ. It is the same gospel that was
preached by all the apostles, including the apostle Paul. Many
suggest that Paul preached a different gospel, but that is not true.

Even during his time, there were people
who claimed to be followers of Paul which he strongly resisted. He
wrote in 1 Corinthians 1:11-17. “For I have been informed
concerning you, my brethren, by Chloe’s people, that
there are quarrels among you. 12Now I mean this, that each one
of you is saying, “I am of Paul,” and “I of Apollos,” and “I
of Cephas,” and “I of Christ.”13Has Christ been divided? Paul
was not crucified for you, was he? Or were you baptized in the name
of Paul?14I thank God that I baptized none of you except Crispus and
Gaius, 15so that no one would say you were baptized in my
name. 16Now I did baptize also the household of Stephanas;
beyond that, I do not know whether I baptized any other. 17For
Christ did not send me to baptize, but to preach the gospel, not in
cleverness of speech, so that the cross of Christ would not be made
void.”

Many people refuse to be baptized
because Paul said that Christ did not send him to baptize. Paul
Himself was baptized immediately after he was called by Jesus as he
also testified in Acts 22:16. Paul only baptized some, but all those
who believed were baptized in the name of Jesus Christ.

Paul wrote in 1 Cor.1:18 “For the
word of the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing, but to
us who are being saved it is the power of God.” Paul was not
talking about believing in the cross of Jesus as so many wrongly
preach, he was talking about doing as Jesus commanded, denying
yourself, picking up your own cross and following Jesus. He did not
repeat the words of Jesus in his letters, as he had already preached
the gospel of Jesus Christ to the Corinthians and were reminding them
of the power of obeying the gospel of Jesus Christ.

 Paul wrote
in 1 Corinthians 2:1”And when I came to you, brethren, I did
not come with superiority of speech or of wisdom, proclaiming to you
the testimony of God. 2For I DETERMINED TO KNOW NOTHING AMONG
YOU EXCEPT JESUS CHRIST, AND HIM CRUCIFIED. 3I was with you in
weakness and in fear and in much trembling, 4and my message and
my preaching were not in persuasive words of wisdom, but in
demonstration of the Spirit and of power, 5so that your faith
would not rest on the wisdom of men, but on the power of God.“ Paul
did not preach himself, or his own gospel, He preached Jesus Christ
and obedience to Him.

Paul wrote in Romans 1:16 “For I am
not ashamed of the gospel, for it is the power of God for salvation
to everyone who believes.” The gospel of Jesus Christ manifests
powerfully through those who believe and obey the words of Jesus, as
Jesus said it would be. When people believe, repent and are baptized,
they are forgiven of sin, delivered from addictions and demon
possession. Jesus said to His disciples:“Go into all the world and
preach the gospel to all creation. 16“He who has believed and
has been baptized shall be saved; but he who has disbelieved shall be
condemned. 17“THESE SIGNS WILL ACCOMPANY THOSE WHO HAVE
BELIEVED: in My name they will cast out demons, they will speak with
new tongues; 18they will pick up serpents, and if they drink any
deadly poison, it will not hurt them; they will lay hands
on the sick, and they will recover.”Mark 16:15-18. The absence of
the manifestation of the POWER OF THE GOSPEL in modern day
Christianity indicates that modern day Christians have never
believed, because they do not OBEY the gospel of Jesus Christ. They
refuse to repent, refuse to stop sinning and be holy. They refuse to
be baptized in water and that is why the power of the gospel is not
manifested through them.

Paul was a Jew, he was a pharisee when
Jesus called him, but he did not preach or teach the Torah, the old
testament Laws and Prophets. He preached Jesus Christ and His
commandments, obedience to Him, His words, His Holy Spirit. He wrote
in Romans 8:14 “Those who are being led by the Spirit of God, they
are the sons of God.

Jesus' disciples were all Jews, but
they did not preach the Old testament law. They preached the gospel
of Jesus Christ, the things that He had taught and commanded them.

OBEDIENCE to the gospel of Jesus Christ
is CENTRAL and ESSENTIAL for those who believe. Faith without
obedience is futile Paul wrote in 2 Thessalonians 1 :7,8 “When the
Lord Jesus will be revealed from heaven with His mighty angels in
flaming fire,8dealing out retribution to those who do not know God
and to THOSE WHO DO NOT OBEY THE GOSPEL OF OUR LORD JESUS.”, not
the gospel of Paul, the gospel of Jesus Christ, His words, His
commands. Those who do not know and obey Jesus Christ will NOT enter
heaven. They will be thrown into HELL.

The so called grace gospel that is
preached by many is not the gospel that Paul preached. There is no
room for sin, immorality and disobedience in the gospel of Jesus
Christ. The words of Paul have been twisted to create a false grace
gospel that leads to damnation. The apostle Peter warned against such
deception in 2 Peter 3:14:18  “Therefore, beloved, since you
look for these things, be diligent to be found by Him in peace,
spotless and blameless, 15and regard the patience of our
Lord as salvation; just as also our beloved brother Paul,
according to the wisdom given him, wrote to you, 16as also in
all his letters, speaking in them of these things, in which
are some things hard to understand, which the untaught and unstable
distort, as they do also the rest of the Scriptures, to
their own destruction. 17You therefore, beloved, knowing this
beforehand, be on your guard so that you are not carried away by the
error of unprincipled men and fall from your own steadfastness, 18BUT
GROW IN THE GRACE AND KNOWLEDGE of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.”
Growing in grace and knowledge of Jesus only occurs when we follow
Him closely.

We also have a warning regarding the so
called Grace Gospel in Jude 1:4 “ 4For certain men have crept
in among you unnoticed—ungodly ones who were designated long ago
for condemnation. They turn the grace of our God into a license for
immorality, and they deny our only Master and Lord, Jesus Christ. “

Paul also warned Timothy in 2 Timothy
3:1-5 “1But realize this, that in the last days difficult times
will come. 2For men will be lovers of self, lovers of money,
boastful, arrogant, revilers, disobedient to parents, ungrateful,
unholy, 3unloving, irreconcilable, malicious gossips, without
self-control, brutal, haters of good, 4treacherous, reckless,
conceited, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God, 5holding
to a form of godliness, although they have denied its power; Avoid
such men as these.“

The so called Grace Gospel, once saved
always saved, is a damnable heresy that many attribute to Paul. Paul
preached, obeyed and followed Jesus Christ, until his death. Paul led
believers to Jesus, holiness and obedience to Him and His words.

Paul did not preach a different gospel
to the gentiles and he was not the only one that preached to the
gentiles. Jesus commanded His disciples:“All authority has been
given to Me in heaven and on earth. 19“Go therefore and make
disciples of ALL THE NATIONS, baptizing them in the name of the
Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit, 20teaching them to
observe all that I commanded you;”Matthew 28:18-20.  He
said:”Make disciples of ALL nations.”

There is only one gospel that saves,
for Jews and gentiles, and that is the gospel of Jesus Christ. Those
who disobey Jesus will perish. The words of Jesus are recorded in the
gospels, Matthew, Mark, Luke and John. Obey Jesus. Repent and be
baptized and He will reveal Himself to you and you will know Him for
real. Follow Him until the end and you will have eternal life.

May Jesus bless you.

What Jesus Did Will Not Determine Your Destiny

There is a false teaching being preached and believed by many, that because of Jesus dying on the cross, all those who profess to believe in Him will be saved. That is not the gospel of Jesus Christ. It is a lie.

Jesus Christ is the only way. The only way to have eternal life is to obey Jesus Christ. Believing in Jesus, means to believe who He is and therefor to obey Him, His commands, His teachings as they were also recorded in Matthew, Mark, Luke and John. Faith without action is dead. If we do not obey Jesus our faith is worthless.

No sinners will go into heaven. Jesus came to take away the sins of the world. He takes away the guilt of the sin, of those who accept and obey Him, repent, stop sinning and are baptized in water. They are cleansed of their sin, but then they have to SIN NO MORE. If they return to sin, they will perish. The wages of sin is death.

Those who believe in Jesus must live according to His teachings. They have to do good, bear good fruit. If they do not bear good fruit, they will get cut off and burned, they will end up in hell. We can only bear good fruit if we obey Jesus and stay with Him. If we love Him, we will obey Him and He will come and dwell in us, with us. He will give His Holy Spirit in us to  guide and teach us, but we must obey Him, stay with Him, until the end.

Those who sin and those who do not bear good fruit will not enter heaven. What you do will determine whether you go into heaven or into hell. The apostle Paul wrote in Romans 2:6 "God, 6who WILL RENDER TO EACH PERSON ACCORDING TO HIS DEEDS: 7to those who by perseverance in doing good seek for glory and honor and immortality, eternal life; 8but to those who are selfishly ambitious and do not obey the truth, but obey unrighteousness, wrath and indignation. 9There will be tribulation and distress for every soul of man who does evil, of the Jew first and also of the Greek, 10but glory and honor and peace to everyone who does good, to the Jew first and also to the Greek. 11For there is no partiality with God."

Obey the truth. Obey Jesus Christ and DO as He commanded, and you will live.

May Jesus bless you.

Did Jesus Really Say So?

'

God speaks and those with ears hear.

Jesus said: "My sheep hear My voice, they listen to Me and they
follow Me." Those who are being led by the Spirit of God, they
are the children of God. God does speak and those who are tuned in,
those who are following Jesus, they hear His voice and listen to Him
and they obey Him.

Many people claim that Jesus told them
something or that God spoke to them. How can we know whether that
person is speaking the truth? Do we just accept his word, that Jesus
did speak to him, that God told him something, or do we find out for
ourselves whether that is the truth? The only way to find out whether
it is the truth is to ask Jesus Himself, to say" "Lord,
that person says that You spoke to him. Is that the truth?"
Jesus will confirm it to you if it is the truth, but we cannot trust
in other people.

We cannot go by what other people say,
because then we are following after men. Jesus speaks to each and
every child, to each and everyone who follows Him. If we need wisdom
and we need guidance we must ask of Jesus. Pray, wait on Him, expect
an answer, and He will answer you in His way and in His time. If we
follow after people and we live by their word, by their revelations,
then we are not following Jesus Christ anymore. But if Jesus confirms
that He said something to another person then we are walking my
confirmation of Jesus. Always and make sure with Jesus, follow Jesus.
Do not follow men.

May Jesus bless you.

When Did God Stop Speaking?

Many professing
Christians, and among them even preachers, will tell you that God
does not speak, that whatever God wanted to say was recorded in the
Bible, and the Bible is the Word of God. There is nothing further
from the truth. God has always spoken and God has never stopped
speaking. God never changes. God speaks and those with ears listen,
they hear Him. Jesus said:"My sheep hear My voice, and they
follow Me." It is written in the Bible that if any man needs
wisdom let him ask of God who gives to all men freely, and it will be
given to him.

If we draw closer to
Jesus, He draws closer to us and Jesus reveals Himself to those who
seek Him. Those who say that God does not speak just do not know Him.
Those who know Jesus, know His voice, they listen to Him and they
follow Him. If we obey the gospel of Jesus Christ, His words that He
spoke, as they were also recorded in Matthew Mark Luke and John, if
we repent and turn to Jesus, be baptized in water, stop sinning, and
we live according to His words then Jesus reveals Himself to us. He
gives the Holy Spirit in us, Who will speak to us, who will teach us
and guide us, will tell us things to come.

Jesus is alive and He
speaks and those who know Him hear his voice. Many just deny Christ,
among them professing Christians. They prefer not to listen, they are
not interested in hearing what God says, but if we seek Jesus, if we
ask Him He will reveal Himself to us and we will know Him for real.
Jesus Christ is the Living God and He speaks. His sheep hear His
voice they follow Him. Are you one of His sheep? Do you know His
voice and do you follow Him.

May Jesus bless you.
