Your endeavor/work w/ animation is astounding! Thank you*
If you would ever like to work w/ a very, very old man, who may know a thing or II regarding the sovereign will of God. lol
I would find it flattering, to spend some time w/ you, in correspondence, discussing your thoughts & ideas surrounding The Will of God as opposed to common beliefs, man has interpreted, either correctly or falsely.
Wisdom W/O a multitude of Councillors, by definition proves ( )
Repent is not just changing your mind but turning from your sin. I know many churches that teach easy believism and there is no turning from sin, but to a true born again believer he is going to turn from sin even after he is saved out of obedience. Revelation spoke of a time when there would be no repentance and that time is now just look around at worldly churches all over America that focus on entertaining you and not wanted to preach against sin, and that you need to forsake it!
A TRUE believer turns from sin ,NOT out of obedience {that's works} .... but BY FAITH !
20 I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and "the life which I now live in the flesh live by the faith of the Son of God,"... who loved me, and gave himself for me. 21I do not frustrate the grace of God: for if righteousness come by the law,{works / obedience} then Christ is dead in vain. Gal 2:20
@ydnar0591 Righteousness does not come by the law, I'm not disagreeing there but I think you're confused on what some terms mean. I am obedient to His word because of my love for God and the Holy Spirit convicts me of the sin that I have and makes it clear that I have to get rid of it, why do you make it more complicated than that? I am not obedient to keep my salvation, because I can't lose it, I'm obedient to His word to please God. What kind of church do you go to? Just wondering.
You must first of all believe that God IS. Then you must believe the Gospel BY FAITH..then you will BY FAITH take up your cross and follow Jesus . Now do you understand that?
The Apostle Paul made it clear to the Galations that WE will STAYED SAVED, the Same way we GOT SAVED by FAITH IN GOD"S GRACE.
Gal 3. OH foolish Galation.
I am a Christian. I have been to many Christian Churches, presently a Church of the Nazerene. Next week, next Month? next year ? Wherever I choose to go.
16Ye shall know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles? 17Even so every good tree bringeth forth good fruit; but a corrupt tree bringeth forth evil fruit. 18A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit.19Every tree that bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire. Matthew 7:16-19
We should not "name -call" and "insult" OTHERS. See also Galatians 5:14
God made the Gospel simple, so that even a child could understand it. It took socalled men of theological genius to come along and mess it up.
27 But God hath chosen the foolish things of the world to confound the wise; and God hath chosen the weak things of the world to confound the things which are mighty; 1Cor 1:27
Please folks don't complicate the Gospel anymore. There are so many different Gospels on the internet, than the one Paul preached, he would FLIP if he could see this MESS.
3But I fear, lest by any means, as the serpent beguiled Eve through his subtilty, so your minds should be corrupted from the simplicity that is in Christ. 4For if he that cometh preacheth ANOTHER JESUS, whom we have not preached, or if ye receive another SPIRIT, which ye have not received, or another GOSPEL, which ye have not accepted, ye might well bear with him. 2 Cor 11:3-4
Jesus' Gospel is NOT complicated ...until MEN make it that way.
7Ever learning, and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth.
8Now as Jannes and Jambres withstood Moses, so do these also resist the truth: men of corrupt minds, reprobate concerning the faith. 9But they shall proceed no further: for their folly shall be manifest unto all men, as their's also was. 2 Tim 3:7-9
39Search the scriptures; for in them ye think ye have eternal life: and they are they which testify of me.
40And ye will not come to me, that ye might have life.
The scriptures say "that NO "PROPHECY" OF THE SCPITURE" is of ANY private interpretation 2Peter 1:20. There's no perfect interpretation by any one person. That no one has a LOCK on ALL truth in the BIble. We are all right at Times and can ALL be wrong at times.
How many times have you read a verse and you were SURE you knew what it meant, only to hear it read on TV or in a magazine and "Bang" you say to yourself that makes a lot more sense the way this Pastor interprets that verse !
@ydnar0591 And that's why we study (2 Tim. 2:15). Why do you use the word "pastor"? That is an elder or overseer, not a preacher. You have your Bible mixed up.
There is absolutely no answer from you as to Acts 8:13, where the HOLY SPIRIT, who knows the heart of man, DIVINELY INSPIRED THIS WRITING: "Even Simon himself believed". I believe it was to combat false teachings such as once saved always saved and faith only. Either God spoke the TRUTH, when HE SAID Simon believed, or He didn't!!
The young man in Mark 10 should have played a bigger role in Biblical history. If he as he claimed kept those commands from his youth, he was fighting puberty, teen yrs and 20's,30's with the added problem of wealth. That would make him stronger than Samson, wiser than Solomon, & holier than David {who wrote Psalms}.
Even David ask God to forgive the sins of his youth. Ps 25:7
Mark 10:20 does not say the words, but the Bible records what he said, NOT affirming or denying he did it.
Folks only one man in history was PERFECT and he died on the cross to forgive our sins no matter what they are. Any other preaching about Jesus is part of a False Gospel.
18 And Jesus said unto him, Why callest thou me good? there is none good but one, that is, God. MARK 10:18.
Jesus was not saying HE was'nt good he was asking if the man knew why?.. he called Jesus Good.
A Good witness for JWs CULT,when they say "see Jesus in not God"..Ask the JW "Is Jesus Good? If so then he IS... GOD?
@ydnar0591 2 Tim. 3:16 "All Scripture is inspired of God... that the man of God might be COMPLETE [perfect]" We know that Scripture calls men righteous. Why? Because it is possible to be righteous.
David asked God to forgive the sins of HIS YOUTH- HIS SINS, not Adam's sins. You can be youthful but be older than a teenager (cf Timothy).
We can understand the Bible alike. 2 Pet 1:20 applies equally to all passages.
@ydnar0591 Genesis 6:9 "Noah was a righteous man, blameless in his time" Ps. 5:12 "For it is You who blesses the righteous man, O LORD" Luke 23:50 "And a man named Joseph, who was a member of the Council, a good and righteous man" Matt 13:17 "For truly I say to you that many prophets and righteous men desired to see what you see," Man can be righteous. And I agree Jesus IS God, Eph. 4:4. Three in one.
@ydnar0591 However the point of Scripture is not that man can be righteous and NEVER sin, because of this verse, Eccl. 7:20 "Indeed, there is not a righteous man on earth who continually does good and who never sins." Children do not have sins, when they do not know good from evil. Jesus said the little children are what we are to be like in Matt. 18:1-4.
@ydnar0591 Let's look at the context of Romans 3.. lo and behold it says that both Jew and Greek are under sin, not that there is no one righteous. Even the context of the original quote is from the fool saith in his heart there is no God. Psalm 51 is David confessing HIS sins not his mother's sins! We do not inherit the sins of our parents (Ezek. 18:20). Men are made righteous (Eccl. 7:29; Matt. 18:1-4).
Ok I have found in Jonah 3:5 the people of Ninevah believed before repenting, vs5 then vs 8 and vs10...UT Believing and Repentance happen almost the same time {BELIEVE & TURN}. That's what I HAVE ALWAYS BELIEVED and these verses show it.
Also Luke 19 the story of Zacheus in vs4 believed by climbing a tree high enough to kill him "just to look at Jesus" vs10 then Jesus says salvation is come to this house today and Zacheus gave money back 4 fold vs8.
We all MUST.... TURN ....TO GOD and ask for forgivness...so what's that?
Repent can mean TURN, GODLY SORROW, ..and it can also mean "CHANGE OF MIND" ..This is the repentance GOD DOES..When GOD REPENTS, He CHANGES his MIND.
"TURNING FROM", is not the same as STOPPING SOMETHING to gain something.
Repentance and Faith are invisible acts of the heart, and result in ACTS OF GOD ..Remission of Sins and Salvation in Christ {GRACE}....unlike H2o baptism which does NOT result in any ACTS of GOD.
Repentance is FOR the remission of sins, NOT "OUR ACT" OF REMITTING SINS.... WE CAN REPENT but we cannot REMITT our own sins, that is an act of God. WE REPENT in the heart ..GOD REMITTS our sin in Christ, therefore repentance has NO MERIT on our part.
SO are repentance and faith "Invisible acts of the HEART"?
Paul speaks of repentance in 2 Cor 7.
10 For godly sorrow worketh repentance to salvation not to be repented of: but the sorrow of the world worketh death. 2 Cor7:10 but see vs11
But we must repent OF sins, according to Jesus in Luke 13:3.
I think we all agree that we must repent of sins, the question is when? I don't see sinners who have went all there lives not repenting who would just up and repent for NO REASON. If we hear the Gospel as in Acts 10:43-47 then we have REASON TO REPENT..WE BELIEVE...and our immediate reaction to that BELIEF is REPENTANCE, as we heard in the Gospel Jesus died for our sin {1Cor 15:1-4} IF1John 1:9 is at conversion.
@ydnar0591 1 John 1:9 is also post-conversion as well. Check it out, who 1 John was written to: 1 John 2:12 "I am writing to you, little children, because your sins have been forgiven you for His name’s sake." These are ALREADY Christians. They must CONTINUE to confess their sins (Greek tense is present active, continuing action) not simply confess once to receive forgiveness.
@ydnar0591 Eternal life is not something we have right now, bud. Phil. 3:13 "Brethren, I do not regard myself as having laid hold of it yet.." If they forget a sin? That's their problem.
@barrypatrickius "Obedience for salvation is salvation by WORKS! While I am NO calvinist- "lose your salvation" is of the devil!!" Not true. You must OBEY God, when He commands something, and He specifically said it was FOR SALVATION, to receive that salvation. Matthew 7:21- you must not only call Lord, Lord, but DO His will. If you are disobedient, you will perish eternally (1 Thess. 1:8-9). Lose your salvation? Simon did (Acts 8:20)! Look at the Parable of the Sower!
@barrypatrickius Matt. 13:20-21 proves that you may receive the Word with joy but then FALL AWAY. Heb. 2:1 "pay closer attention so we do not drift" Heb. 4:1 "Therefore, let us fear if, while a promise remains of entering His rest, any one of you may seem to have come short of it." Heb 10:26 "For if we go on sinning willfully after receiving the knowledge of the truth, there no longer remains a sacrifice for sins," 1 John 1:8 "IF we confess our sins, He is faithful and righteous to forgive us"
I do not believe that Heb 10:26-27 and Heb 6:4-6 is believers who fell away. This book is written to the judizers who went right up to the brink of believning but then rejected Christ and returned to Judaism. It is for us too, but for different reasons. We can put something in our mouth and taste it, but if we decide we don't like the taste we won't swallow that.
IF these verses are saved & then lost ,WE HAVE LOST IT and the verse says we can't REPENT and get it back!!!
@ydnar0591 It is believers who fell away. Let's read WHO Hebrews was written to. Heb. 3:1 "Therefore, holy brethren, partakers of a heavenly calling..." Those are Christians! V 14 "For we have become partakers of Christ, if we hold fast the beginning of our assurance firm until the end" Heb. 4:1 "Therefore, let us fear if, while a promise remains of entering His rest, any one of you may seem to have come short of it."
@ydnar0591 The verse does not say we cannot repent and get it back. The verse says, while we are in that state, and we are willfully sinning, we are fallen away. It is impossible to renew someone who is willfully sinning, because they do not WANT to obey, but want to SIN. When they stop wanting to sin, they have an Advocate (1 John 1), and if we confess our sins, He is righteous to forgive us.
@ydnar0591 No, I am not. The NIV and Amplified Bible use dynamic equivalence, which is paraphrasing instead of directly translating. I am telling you what the verse says, though. That is the point. While we are willfully sinning, can we come to repentance? NO! You must FIRST stop sinning to repent of it.
You must repent OR perish (Luke 13:3). Not repent AFTER salvation. The reason for repentance is the gospel (Acts 2). All have sinned, so all must repent.
@ydnar0591 Yes they are very clear. If you willfully sin you are not in fellowship with God. "If we say that we have fellowship with Him and yet walk in the darkness, we lie and do not practice the truth.." No liar will enter into heaven according to Revelation.
@ydnar0591 Not true. The believers in Acts 2 did not receive the miraculous gifts of the Holy Spirit, neither did the other believers in Acts 8:12. The Holy Spirit has given the Word of God to us, which is how the Holy Spirit dwells in us. Do you make God a liar? HE said that Simon believed, "Even Simon himself believed". He WAS saved.
Satan is also quoted in the Bible, does what he said make God a liar?
This man was a sorcerer and he was at first trying to get what he thought was a secret of the Holy Spirit. He dealt in spirits and witchcraft. He wanted to buy the Holy Ghost for cryin outloud! Peter siad his heart was not right . How could he have been saved the first time if his heart was not right? The Apostles could not tell if a man is saved nor can you or I. Only God sees the Heart. This is like other
@ydnar0591 LOL. Again you are making a mockery out of the Bible and proving yourself to be a fool. When the Bible records something that HAPPENS, it is always true 100% of the time. For instance, God created the heaven and the earth, or "Simon also believed". When the Bible records someone who SAYS something, they 100% absolutely SAID it. Whether or not the quote is true we must decide by context.
Please don't put words in my mouth, I love God and his Word. If you interpret the a scripture differently than someone else interprets a scripture you don't insult them. Jeuus did'nt agree or disagree, he just kept on telling him to give his money up {it was his God} and to pick up his cross and follow HIM.
Well I don't believe in calling people names or insulting people. It's not a good witness. So I'll just wish you well and pray that God gives you better fruit . God Bless
@ydnar0591 You do not love the Word when you reject what it says. A different interpretation? There is no private interpretation of Scripture (2 Pet. 1:20). The Bible says Simon believed. You say he didn't.
@ydnar0591 Simon was a sorcerer. So what? He was not at FIRST trying to get the secret of the Holy Spirit, that comes LATER. AFTER he believed. How could he have been saved the first time if his heart was not right? Easy! He turned from his salvation. According to Ezekiel 18:24ff the righteous can TURN AWAY from the righteousness, and be destroyed for it. We can tell if a man is saved based on whether he faithfully obeyed from the heart God's doctrine (Rom. 6:17-18).
@ydnar0591 If he has unrepented sin, then he is not saved according to 1 John 1. Only God sees the heart, yes! But the gifts of the Holy Spirit included knowledge. Will you limit that knowledge from knowing the hearts of men?
..in the Bible like the young rich man, who Jesus told "you know the commandments and the rich man said "These have I kept since my youth"..Now nobody believes that. I believe the Bible says he said it, BUT I don't believe what he said, He kept them all since his youth? Come on?
The woman caught in adultry, John 8 . I believe Jesus told her to go and sin no more, But I seriously doubt that she DID IT. I believe the Bible is all truth... with people in it that sometimes lie.
@ydnar0591 Now you're just being silly. The Bible says that the rich young ruler said something. (Jesus believed it apparently but that is beside the point) There is a difference between the BIBLE saying something, and the Bible RECORDING someone ELSE saying something. The BIBLE says that SIMON BELIEVED. The Bible does not SAY that Simon SAID he believed.
"False works gospel"... not all works are evil, see James 2:14-26.. the works that are condemned in Scripture are meritonious works or "good moral deeds" or obedience to the Law of Moses for salvation. Obedience to God is ALWAYS necessary for salvation, Matt. 7:21
I know what you're saying and I want to get it right too, but the will of the father is in John 6:40:
Jesus is of course speaking here:
40 And this is the will of him that sent me, that every one which seeth the Son, and believeth on him, may have everlasting life: and I will raise him up at the last day. JOHN 6:40
Is Repentance an ACT OF FAITH and NOT works?......I BELIEVE therfore I REPENT by FAITH
Faith / repentance are 2 sides of same coin. Justified by faith.
Luke 13:3.. unless you repent you will perish. Rom. 10:17 faith comes by hearing the word of God. Confess Jesus as Lord for salvation, Rom. 10:9-10. Be baptized for remission of sins, Acts 2:38, Mark 16:16, 1 Pet. 3:21. Live faithfully until death, Rev. 2:10. Repentance IS necessary for salvation!
Charles Spurgeon: I learn from the Scriptures that repentance is just as necessary to salvation as faith is, and the faith that has not repentance going with it will have to be repented of.
also, i see that you are a fan of Dr. Hutson. l have listened some of his messages probably more than you. i agree with most of what he taught, i don't agree that you are muddying the gospel by preaching repentance. standing by him, a man of God, is an admirable thing. what about William Tyndale, Luther, John Bunyan, Wesley, Whitefield, Spurgeon, and Moody. They all preached repentance to some degree.
simple, u sent me a msg which i think i may have accidently deleted. pls resend or reply as this is important. 1stly, you are saying not to tell men to repent, i think. if Jesus' preaching was preceded by Jonn's call to repentance, then Jesus preached and kept on preaching repentance, then told his disciples to preach repentance to all nations, how can you say repentance is a false gospel. 2ndly, the word in Greek, metanaeo literally means change thinking; belief is a sign of repentance, brother
In Jim Carrey's voice.......IT'S BEAUTIFUL MAN. Why is this simple fact about salvation so hard to understand. I'll tell you why "PRIDE" we would much rather work for our salvation than just believe or "repent". Jesus said "Strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it" And I believe that because people would rather "turn from their sins and.........." is the reason why "few there be that find it" WAKE UP PEOPLE!!!!!!!
[25] Ye are the children of the prophets, and of the covenant which God made with our fathers, saying unto Abraham, And in thy seed shall all the kindreds of the earth be blessed.
[26] Unto you first God, having raised up his Son Jesus, sent him to bless you, in turning away every one of you from his iniquities.
When I first became a Christian I used to watch "The way of the master" and I used to worry all the time if I didn't repent of all of my sins I would still go to hell. I have turned from most of my sins after I got saved but we all still sin even after we get saved. I'm not saying its ok to sin but how can we stop sinning while satan is still the god of this world? Jesus died for all of our sins not just the ones we did before we got saved.
I thought on my ways, and turned my feet unto Thy testimonies. Psalm 119:59 and Repent ye therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out, when the times of refreshing shall come from the presence of the Lord. Acts 3:19 (study repentance in God's Word)
I agree with this video,Repent and believe just means,turn from your unbelief and believe in Christ,God grants us repentance for sins after He saves us,so repentance of sins is a fruit of salvation.
We also need to consider Jude 4, "They are godless men, who change the grace of our God into a license for immorality and deny Jesus Christ our only Sovereign and Lord."
Hooboy! A licence to sin! Fantastic. No more going to church for me. No more obeying the laws of the land. No more haviing to even believe in God. Jesus did it all. (sarcasm intended)
You're not SUPPOSED to believe sarcasm. I'm saying that the teaching that "Jesus did it all" has been used as a copout for obeying Jesus. Jesus taught obedience, not this rubbish about it being evil to try to obey him.
The reason I commented was because you said: "Jesus did it all. (sarcasm intended)" To me, that looks like you are mocking those who believe that Jesus did everything. (Which he did)
@Jurassicprince You said "You truly are lost." But if Jesus "did everything", why does "mocking" another Christian send me to hell? There are inconsistencies in how we interpret "Jesus did everything." I am concerned about mocking Jesus for telling US to do things or we will be lost. I don't see Jesus preaching this do nothing gospel. Do you?
I know I said that. I said that because to me, it sounded like you were/are a works salvation teacher. I was not saying you are going to hell for mocking Christians, I said you were lost because by that "Jesus did it all (Sarcasm intended)" comment, it sounds like you don't truly believe that Jesus did it all.
Works AREN'T required for salvation. Jesus did it all. Jesus was obedient (Phil. 2:8). All we have to do is to believe on Jesus (John 3:36, Acts 16:30-31, John 3:14-16, John 5:24, John 6:40, John 6:29, Eph. 2:8-9, Gal. 2:16-21, Rom. 11:6)
I could honestly go on and on with Grace alone verses. All that is required is to believe. Once saved always saved (I could give lots of verses too). Yes, I do see Jesus preaching this Gospel. I will stand behind this Gospel til the day I die.
So many of those verses that you imagine to be "grace only" verses are actually "faith" verses. Put them all together (not leaving out James 2:20 and other similar verses) and you learn that if there is no faith there is no grace, and if there is no works there is no faith. Faith is such a powerful force, but when you separate it from works, it is nothing but dead theology. The whole "works salvation" boogeyman is a myth. Faith without works is dead.
@Jurassicprince "Believe Jesus". Show me where Jesus said you don't have to do anything, and I'll believe him. If you can't, then your faith is in a doctrine and not in Jesus.
Also, check out these doozies: Galatians 2:16-21, Rom 11:6, and Rev. 22:17
It's clear that you clearly deny faith alone; showing you are truly lost. You can deny faith alone all you want. It doesn't change that the only way to be saved, is to believe on Jesus. No works are required. Read Acts 16:30-31, very clear. As well as is the whole Bible on the issue of Salvation. I hope you trust on Jesus, not your works + Jesus + whatever. Bye.
I believe that the grace of God is so great that he is actually going to forgive me for trying to obey his Son. Heretical, I know, but that's what I believe.
Good luck with getting your "obedience is not required for salvation" fairy tale by God. I'm a "Jesus alone" believer, and my Jesus says that you will be sent to heaven or hell based on what you did or did not do!
Did you listen to yourself? "Jesus Alone" lol How can you believe on Jesus alone, if you are trying to obey?! That's works! And yeah, I don't have to worry. Jesus paid it all, and I'm trusting him for my salvation, unlike you.
'And if by grace, then [is it] no more of works: otherwise grace is no more grace. But if [it be] of works, then is it no more grace: otherwise work is no more work.' Romans 11:6
Please, read Galatians (Especially Chp. 2 & 5); It will do you some good.
Jurassic, I doubt anyone read this besides you and me, so I'll finish here. My faith is in Jesus... not you, not Calvin, not Scofield, not even Paul. My faith is in Jesus. If he said it, I believe it. And he said we must obey him. To Jesus "work" is not the dirty word that you have made it. Your faith is in a myth (i.e. that God doesn't want you to obey his Son), whereas my faith is in Jesus. Take another shot at me and then let it go. I won't be replying.
My faith is in Jesus. The moment I believed on his death and resurrection, my sins were washed away. The difference between you and me, is you are trusting Jesus + Yourself. Whereas I am trusting solely in Jesus. How can you even say your faith is in Jesus, when you think you have to obey?
I am not advocating living in sin and not obeying. We should obey. BUT IT IS NOT REQUIRED FOR SALVATION. The Bible makes it very clear. PS, look at what Jesus in John 6:28-29.
Thanks this video really clear something up lately that where on my mind. I didn't know all the stuff about Paul washer though that you had. Trust me I still kind of believe Paul Washer on certain things but I didn't know that his own church was that bad. I'm starting to feel that part of the reason Washer makes other church's feel so bad is cause of how bad his church is. But yea I agree with some of the things you say & things washer say's mostly about American Christianity which is very false
arg...Paul Washer. I watched Paul Washer preach for over an hour in a video and I kept waiting for the "Good News". Unfortunately, Paul Washer didn't talk about the "Good News". Washer just ended his sermon in typical "Washer Mysery." BELIEVE IN JESUS. RECEIVE THE HOLY SPIRIT. THE HOLY SPIRIT WILL WORK FROM THE INSIDE OUT TO CREATE A CHANGED LIFE AND GOOD WORKS BECAUSE YOU HAVE ALREADY BEEN SAVED. Good video. God bless.
You are missing the point. Faith without works is dead. That doesn't mean works saves you. It means faith without works isn't faith. Faith without a new heart isn't faith. Faith without obedience to Christ isn't faith. If you continue in your sins it just means you never had any faith to begin with, it means you have neither seen Him or known Him. If you have faith, you also have a new heart that loves Christ. It is impossible to love Christ and remain in disobedience.
True repentance cannot be done without faith. But, you can have faith without repentance. Even the devil himself believes the Word of God but doesn't have repentance. So do theologians. Also, saying a simple sinner's prayer may not save you. Don't fall for that lie from the devil. It has to come from your heart, not just from your mouth.
No one is sinless. We all sin everyday. Therefore we need daily repentance of our sins and a true relationship with Jesus Christ. I would rather have all Jesus without works than all works without Jesus. With "true salvation" works comes naturally with the Holy Spirit inside of you. In many countries though it's extremely difficult to do good works 'in Jesus name'.
Jesus said, "Beware of false prophets, who come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravenous wolves. You will know them by their fruits." In these last days (2 Timothy 3:1; 4:3; Luke 18:8) a following of many is a sign of a false teacher, not a true teacher. Few follow truth. Many (2 Peter 2:2) follow lies (Mt. 7:13-14). And, even in this, the context of many and few is within the context of the "people of God" (2 Peter 2:1-2).
But shewed first unto them of Damascus, and at Jerusalem, and throughout all the coasts of Judaea, and then to the Gentiles, that they should repent and turn to God, and do works meet for repentance.
repent means change of mind, youre calling God a sinner if you think it means turn from sin, since God repented many times in the bible e.g. jonah 3:10
I did nto say that. in Acts 2:38, Peter had just rebuked the people for handing Christ over to be crucified before telling them to repent. You also need to consider that a different word was used to refer to God's 'repenting' of having made man than is used in the NT. That was written in Hebrew.
No, actually SaudaraLink, the same word is used in Jonah 3:10's LXX as in Acts 2:38, metanoew. That's the usual verb the LXX uses to translate Hebrew naham (also in all the 'repent' verses in OT where God is the Subject).
Interesting point, but the OT was still written in Hebrew. I've read the NT does use a lot of terminology from the LXX, and its note purely typical 'Koine Greek' in this regard. Be that as it may, the OT was written in Hebrew. Do you believe the LXX was inspired? The tradition of the 70 elders applied only to the Penteteuch if I am not mistaken.
SaudaraLink, it's not purely koine. There are many Atticisms, esp. in LXX: Isaiah 53 is a classic example (pun intended). See my Isaiah 53 Meter Hypothesis video playlist, if interested.
Was the LXX inspired? Christ & the apostles quote almost exclusively from it, so it rates a quasi-inspired status in at least those verses; you have to use it carefully. I just began a playlist on that topic, too.
LOL: do you also believe in Goldilocks and the Three Bears, SaudaraLink?
There is nothing plausible about 70 Pharisaical rabbis translating the Tanakh, the inspired words of God, for an Egyptian Pharaoh!
The LXX is bogus, and the "scholars" who assert that the Septuagint extant today is anything other that the product of a notorious Alexandrian heretics are either infidels, pathological liars, or world-class dupes.
I didn't say the LXX was inspired. But many in the early church considered it that. And the New Testament writings thought highly enough of it to quote many of these verses they cited word for word from the LXX.
But at least the people who believed the LXX had some kind of reason to believe it was inspired. The KJV onlyists have no reason to think the KJV is inspired.
Read the Book that God Himself preserved as a matter of historical fact because you will not find an error, addition, or omission in it.
For the English-speaking peoples, the King James Version (AV) of the Holy Bible is the fully reliable final authority in all matters because it is the divinely inspired, inerrant, infallible and preserved words of God in written form.
In short, the King James Bible is the Holy Scripture in English.
Sadly, for some who think that a pathetic Alexandrian heretic who castrated himself is the author of the Holy Scriptures, SaudaraLink, indeed their "other Jesus" is not the "Lamb of God which taketh away the sin of the world." They are those lost men who know neither the Scriptures nor the power of God.
For the English-speaking peoples, the Authorized Version (KJV) is the Holy Bible, which unfailingly testifies of the Lord Jesus Christ in our native language legible today.
Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost.
A counter to your argument is that people are arguing that 'repent from sin' means 'turn from sin' not that 'repent' means 'turn from sin.' The Bible also talks
Is using these words no different then praying a sinners prayer or asking Jesus into your heart. By the way, in not seeing repentance in one passage of salvation, does this autonatically teach if it is missing in a verse on salvation then it is no longer a valid belief? Or do we draw from many passages for salvation. In Romans 10 it teaches calling on the name of the Lord, is this in 1 Corinthians?
Defining Lordship Salvation as turning from every sin and overcoming every sin is the biggest lie I ever heard about salvation. I have read the works of MacArthur and others and never saw them teach this as they teach man is incapable to overcome sin as this is largely from a reformed view i.e. total depravity. On one hand they teach that man on his own is incapable of faith and then you say that they teach you must overcome, turn from every sin. Is this noit a contradiction?
Calvinists and Lordship advocates are not the ones who err in redefining the beliefs of their opponents.
Perhaps if one would not take their words out of context, you would see that their message is thoroughly biblical. Of course, no need to defend them-they do a good enough job on their own.
Have you ever read Psalms 14 and 53 which teaches God looked down from heaven and saqw no one desired to seek after the Lord? Does this line up more with Calvinism or Arminianism?
@daveme7 Like I said before, why don't you go discuss lordship salvation with RedBeetle? He has many videos discussing/exposing Lordship Salvation as works salvation and John MacArthur + Paul Washer. and what is this arminianism stuff? we make our own choices, God does not make them for us. we choose to sin or walk holy, not God. and OSAS is true, but the P of tulip is false. no perseverance is needed to enter Heaven. Like I said, go discuss LS with RedBeetle. Thanks for your time.
Because last I checked, this is America...and we have freedom...and feel compelled to stand for truth when I see so many blatantly mischaracterize...because you made a video...and we have freedoms...and -well hopefully you will start to get it now.
That is the point of Arminianism sister-they teach power belongs in the choice of the individual. You are somewhat mis-defining P. All that is is eternal security with the caveat God will sanctify in other words just as the bible teaches in ephesians 2:10-we are his workmanship created unto good works. Last I checked, I bled for my country so surfs up in freedom woohoo
In Mark 1:15 Jesus clearly shows that repentance is clearly seperate and distinct from faith.
Yes, erroneously many do not make a distinction from sins and sin. As I see it, they are attempting to draw the same conclusion to repent from that which seperates you from God which is yourself in the sin nature or whatever you rely upon. Most times in seeing many decry repentance as the same as faith or a works oriented salvation never preaches repentance even when it is in the bible
THE 2 DON'T HAPPEN AT THE SAME TIME FOR EVERYONE. i CAN CHOSE TO BEEIF IN SOMETHING, HOWEVER NEVER CHANGE WHO I AM TO LIVE THAT BELEIF. ITS CLEAR THAT A LOT OF PEOPLE CLAIM TO BE CHRISTIANS, HOW EVER THEY TRY TO FORM GOD INTO THEIR IDOLUTRY IMAGE, RATHER THAN ALLOW GOD TO CHANGE THEM INTO HIS IMAGE. HOLY, RIGHTESOUS, PURE, SO ON SO FOR. IF WE COULD GET A GLIMPSE OF GOD AS PAUL AND IZZAIH DID. THE RELOVATION OF CHRIST. REPENTECE WOULD COME NATURALLY TO ANYONE BEFORE ANYTHING ELSE.
repent comes from 2 word in hebrew, nâcham. its means to "sigh," the use if this word in old testement. rather used in Joah, jerimaiah, izzaiah, or in the beging genesis. according to the hebrew christians and historians, this word is used to express regret or sorrow. shûb- is the word jesus used in the new testement. it means to turn back or away. in greak the word used is metanoeō. I means to turn from, think differently, or change how you excersise your mind.
THATS NOT MY MONOLOGUE ITS CHRIST. ACCORDING TO HIM. IF JESUS CHRIST IS THE ONLY EXAMPLE. IF JESUS CHRIST IS THE ONLY BAR TO GO BYE. HE PREACHED REPENT FIRST AND THEN BELEIVE THE GOSPEL. NOW IF THATS THE ORDER GOD HAS ORDAINED IN. THAT ODER REPENT, THEN BELEAVE.Mark 1:15
And saying, The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand: repent ye, and believe the gospel. AND IF GOD IS TRUE AND EVERY MAN A LIAR. THAN THAT MEANS REPENT FIRST, BELIF THE GOSPEL, AND BE SAFED. OR ITS ALL A LIE.
Acts 3:19-Repent ye therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out, when the times of refreshing shall come from the presence of the Lord. Mark 6:12And they went out, and preached that men should repent
Luke 3:3And he came into all the country about Jordan, preaching the baptism of repentance for the remission of sins;
16The people which sat in darkness saw great light; and to them which sat in the region and shadow of death light is sprung up.
17From that time Jesus began to preach, and to say, Repent: for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.. Mark 1:14-16
14Now after that John was put in prison, Jesus came into Galilee, preaching the gospel of the kingdom of God, 15And saying, The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand: repent ye, and believe the gospel.
THIS VIDEO RASIE SOME INTERESTING BIBLCAL QUESTIONS. SUCH AS WHAT DID THE HOLY SPIRIT MEAN THREW PAUL.0IN
2 Corinthians 7:10 For godly sorrow worketh repentance to salvation not to be repented of: but the sorrow of the world worketh death.
THE HOLY SPIRIT, GOD CHOSE TO STATE THE 2 TERMS TOGETHER IN ONE SCRIPTURE. REPENTECE TO SALVATION. CAN YOU X-PLAIN THAT BIBLLICALLY, WITH PROPER BIBLE APILICATION. ALSO WHAT ABOUT THE APOSTELS AND WHAT THEY WERE COMMANED TO PREACH.
John 9:31-Now we know that God heareth not sinners: but if any man be a worshipper of God, and doeth his will, him he heareth how can a person be heard by God without repenting first. I don't beleive in works salvation, however their is a work that fallows faith. that work produces fruits of the faith, thats so we can tell who is of God and who is of the devil. IF you have faith, if your sealed by the spirit their shlould be a fruit produce threw you by the Holy spirit to glorify JESUS CHRIST
there is a CLEAR LINE that must be made between born-again and sanctification.
and ya, its amazing.
there is a reason why in Romans 5 after Paul explains salvation is a free gift, and we have no part in it, he then answers the objection that this means "this is a license of immorality", in Romans 6 he clearly refutes the idea that this means we can go sin how we want.
lol exactly, I have had people messaging me saying that I ma being deceived and ignorant lol Apprently I will get blotted out of the Book of life for perversion of scripture lol, All these Lordship Salvation drones are so insecure that will try to weigh it o us now, We nee donly believe in the Lord Jesus Christ and love thy neighbour as thyself

Repent actually means; That one takes physical action, in regards to any previous or future act, opposing the Will of God.
No considered single effort, statement or heartfelt internal sentiment is able to fulfill this
Repentance then; Asks anther's forgiveness, returns stolen goods or recompense, corrects errors etc.
Salvation; IN THIS HOUR is best described by the profit Ezekiel.

Repent is not just changing your mind but turning from your sin. I know many churches that teach easy believism and there is no turning from sin, but to a true born again believer he is going to turn from sin even after he is saved out of obedience. Revelation spoke of a time when there would be no repentance and that time is now just look around at worldly churches all over America that focus on entertaining you and not wanted to preach against sin, and that you need to forsake it!

A TRUE believer turns from sin ,NOT out of obedience {that's works} .... but BY FAITH !
20 I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and "the life which I now live in the flesh live by the faith of the Son of God,"... who loved me, and gave himself for me. 21I do not frustrate the grace of God: for if righteousness come by the law,{works / obedience} then Christ is dead in vain. Gal 2:20
Obedience should come by faith.

@ydnar0591 Righteousness does not come by the law, I'm not disagreeing there but I think you're confused on what some terms mean. I am obedient to His word because of my love for God and the Holy Spirit convicts me of the sin that I have and makes it clear that I have to get rid of it, why do you make it more complicated than that? I am not obedient to keep my salvation, because I can't lose it, I'm obedient to His word to please God. What kind of church do you go to? Just wondering.

The young man in Mark 10 should have played a bigger role in Biblical history. If he as he claimed kept those commands from his youth, he was fighting puberty, teen yrs and 20's,30's with the added problem of wealth. That would make him stronger than Samson, wiser than Solomon, & holier than David {who wrote Psalms}.
Even David ask God to forgive the sins of his youth. Ps 25:7
Mark 10:20 does not say the words, but the Bible records what he said, NOT affirming or denying he did it.

Folks only one man in history was PERFECT and he died on the cross to forgive our sins no matter what they are. Any other preaching about Jesus is part of a False Gospel.

We all MUST.... TURN ....TO GOD and ask for forgivness...so what's that?
Repent can mean TURN, GODLY SORROW, ..and it can also mean "CHANGE OF MIND" ..This is the repentance GOD DOES..When GOD REPENTS, He CHANGES his MIND.
"TURNING FROM", is not the same as STOPPING SOMETHING to gain something.
Repentance and Faith are invisible acts of the heart, and result in ACTS OF GOD ..Remission of Sins and Salvation in Christ {GRACE}....unlike H2o baptism which does NOT result in any ACTS of GOD.

Repentance is FOR the remission of sins, NOT "OUR ACT" OF REMITTING SINS.... WE CAN REPENT but we cannot REMITT our own sins, that is an act of God. WE REPENT in the heart ..GOD REMITTS our sin in Christ, therefore repentance has NO MERIT on our part.
SO are repentance and faith "Invisible acts of the HEART"?
Paul speaks of repentance in 2 Cor 7.

If we hear the Gospel as in Acts 10:43-47 then we have REASON TO REPENT..WE BELIEVE...and our immediate reaction to that BELIEF is REPENTANCE, as we heard in the Gospel Jesus died for our sin {1Cor 15:1-4} IF1John 1:9 is at conversion.

"False works gospel"... not all works are evil, see James 2:14-26.. the works that are condemned in Scripture are meritonious works or "good moral deeds" or obedience to the Law of Moses for salvation. Obedience to God is ALWAYS necessary for salvation, Matt. 7:21

I know what you're saying and I want to get it right too, but the will of the father is in John 6:40:
Jesus is of course speaking here:
40 And this is the will of him that sent me, that every one which seeth the Son, and believeth on him, may have everlasting life: and I will raise him up at the last day. JOHN 6:40
Is Repentance an ACT OF FAITH and NOT works?......I BELIEVE therfore I REPENT by FAITH
Faith / repentance are 2 sides of same coin. Justified by faith.

You are telling me not to preach repentance... Luke 24:
[45]Then opened he their understanding, that they might understand the scriptures,
[46] And said unto them, Thus it is written, and thus it behoved Christ to suffer, and to rise from the dead the third day:
[47] And that repentance and remission of sins should be preached in his name among all nations, beginning at Jerusalem.

They all preached repentance to some degree.

simple, u sent me a msg which i think i may have accidently deleted. pls resend or reply as this is important. 1stly, you are saying not to tell men to repent, i think. if Jesus' preaching was preceded by Jonn's call to repentance, then Jesus preached and kept on preaching repentance, then told his disciples to preach repentance to all nations, how can you say repentance is a false gospel. 2ndly, the word in Greek, metanaeo literally means change thinking; belief is a sign of repentance, brother

In Jim Carrey's voice.......IT'S BEAUTIFUL MAN. Why is this simple fact about salvation so hard to understand. I'll tell you why "PRIDE" we would much rather work for our salvation than just believe or "repent". Jesus said "Strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it" And I believe that because people would rather "turn from their sins and.........." is the reason why "few there be that find it" WAKE UP PEOPLE!!!!!!!

If you want to follow God, you must turn away from your sins.
The word "repent" is ambiguous, meaning having multiple meanings, and God repenting is not synonymous with a man repenting from sin.

When I first became a Christian I used to watch "The way of the master" and I used to worry all the time if I didn't repent of all of my sins I would still go to hell. I have turned from most of my sins after I got saved but we all still sin even after we get saved. I'm not saying its ok to sin but how can we stop sinning while satan is still the god of this world? Jesus died for all of our sins not just the ones we did before we got saved.

No where in the Bible does it say we must stop sinning or clean up our acts to be saved (turn from sins).
Most of this error comes from people giving a false definition to the word repent/repentance.
Check out who's doing the repenting in the Old Testament (KJV Bible). Do a keyword search for repent.

Repent means changing your mind, while "turn/forsake" means performing an action.
Since they are different things they should NOT be lumped together.

Works AREN'T required for salvation. Jesus did it all. Jesus was obedient (Phil. 2:8). All we have to do is to believe on Jesus (John 3:36, Acts 16:30-31, John 3:14-16, John 5:24, John 6:40, John 6:29, Eph. 2:8-9, Gal. 2:16-21, Rom. 11:6)
I could honestly go on and on with Grace alone verses. All that is required is to believe. Once saved always saved (I could give lots of verses too). Yes, I do see Jesus preaching this Gospel. I will stand behind this Gospel til the day I die.

@Jurassicprince
So many of those verses that you imagine to be "grace only" verses are actually "faith" verses. Put them all together (not leaving out James 2:20 and other similar verses) and you learn that if there is no faith there is no grace, and if there is no works there is no faith. Faith is such a powerful force, but when you separate it from works, it is nothing but dead theology. The whole "works salvation" boogeyman is a myth. Faith without works is dead.

You are missing the point. Faith without works is dead. That doesn't mean works saves you. It means faith without works isn't faith. Faith without a new heart isn't faith. Faith without obedience to Christ isn't faith. If you continue in your sins it just means you never had any faith to begin with, it means you have neither seen Him or known Him. If you have faith, you also have a new heart that loves Christ. It is impossible to love Christ and remain in disobedience.
RobertMOdell 1 year ago
True repentance cannot be done without faith. But, you can have faith without repentance. Even the devil himself believes the Word of God but doesn't have repentance. So do theologians. Also, saying a simple sinner's prayer may not save you. Don't fall for that lie from the devil. It has to come from your heart, not just from your mouth.

No one is sinless. We all sin everyday. Therefore we need daily repentance of our sins and a true relationship with Jesus Christ. I would rather have all Jesus without works than all works without Jesus. With "true salvation" works comes naturally with the Holy Spirit inside of you. In many countries though it's extremely difficult to do good works 'in Jesus name'.
Wildputycat 1 year ago
Jesus said, "Beware of false prophets, who come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravenous wolves. You will know them by their fruits." In these last days (2 Timothy 3:1; 4:3; Luke 18:8) a following of many is a sign of a false teacher, not a true teacher. Few follow truth. Many (2 Peter 2:2) follow lies (Mt. 7:13-14). And, even in this, the context of many and few is within the context of the "people of God" (2 Peter 2:1-2).

I did nto say that. in Acts 2:38, Peter had just rebuked the people for handing Christ over to be crucified before telling them to repent. You also need to consider that a different word was used to refer to God's 'repenting' of having made man than is used in the NT. That was written in Hebrew.
SaudaraLink 2 years ago
No, actually SaudaraLink, the same word is used in Jonah 3:10's LXX as in Acts 2:38, metanoew. That's the usual verb the LXX uses to translate Hebrew naham (also in all the 'repent' verses in OT where God is the Subject).
brainouty 2 years ago
Interesting point, but the OT was still written in Hebrew. I've read the NT does use a lot of terminology from the LXX, and its note purely typical 'Koine Greek' in this regard. Be that as it may, the OT was written in Hebrew. Do you believe the LXX was inspired? The tradition of the 70 elders applied only to the Penteteuch if I am not mistaken.
SaudaraLink 2 years ago
SaudaraLink, it's not purely koine. There are many Atticisms, esp. in LXX: Isaiah 53 is a classic example (pun intended). See my Isaiah 53 Meter Hypothesis video playlist, if interested.
Was the LXX inspired? Christ & the apostles quote almost exclusively from it, so it rates a quasi-inspired status in at least those verses; you have to use it carefully. I just began a playlist on that topic, too.
brainouty 2 years ago
LOL: do you also believe in Goldilocks and the Three Bears, SaudaraLink?
There is nothing plausible about 70 Pharisaical rabbis translating the Tanakh, the inspired words of God, for an Egyptian Pharaoh!
The LXX is bogus, and the "scholars" who assert that the Septuagint extant today is anything other that the product of a notorious Alexandrian heretics are either infidels, pathological liars, or world-class dupes.
jjpetkusiii 2 years ago
I didn't say the LXX was inspired. But many in the early church considered it that. And the New Testament writings thought highly enough of it to quote many of these verses they cited word for word from the LXX.
But at least the people who believed the LXX had some kind of reason to believe it was inspired. The KJV onlyists have no reason to think the KJV is inspired.

Read the Book that God Himself preserved as a matter of historical fact because you will not find an error, addition, or omission in it.
For the English-speaking peoples, the King James Version (AV) of the Holy Bible is the fully reliable final authority in all matters because it is the divinely inspired, inerrant, infallible and preserved words of God in written form.
In short, the King James Bible is the Holy Scripture in English.

Sadly, for some who think that a pathetic Alexandrian heretic who castrated himself is the author of the Holy Scriptures, SaudaraLink, indeed their "other Jesus" is not the "Lamb of God which taketh away the sin of the world."

Is using these words no different then praying a sinners prayer or asking Jesus into your heart. By the way, in not seeing repentance in one passage of salvation, does this autonatically teach if it is missing in a verse on salvation then it is no longer a valid belief? Or do we draw from many passages for salvation. In Romans 10 it teaches calling on the name of the Lord, is this in 1 Corinthians?

Defining Lordship Salvation as turning from every sin and overcoming every sin is the biggest lie I ever heard about salvation. I have read the works of MacArthur and others and never saw them teach this as they teach man is incapable to overcome sin as this is largely from a reformed view i.e. total depravity. On one hand they teach that man on his own is incapable of faith and then you say that they teach you must overcome, turn from every sin. Is this noit a contradiction?

Well,
Calvinists and Lordship advocates are not the ones who err in redefining the beliefs of their opponents.
Perhaps if one would not take their words out of context, you would see that their message is thoroughly biblical. Of course, no need to defend them-they do a good enough job on their own.
Have you ever read Psalms 14 and 53 which teaches God looked down from heaven and saqw no one desired to seek after the Lord? Does this line up more with Calvinism or Arminianism?

First,
In Mark 1:15 Jesus clearly shows that repentance is clearly seperate and distinct from faith.
Yes, erroneously many do not make a distinction from sins and sin. As I see it, they are attempting to draw the same conclusion to repent from that which seperates you from God which is yourself in the sin nature or whatever you rely upon. Most times in seeing many decry repentance as the same as faith or a works oriented salvation never preaches repentance even when it is in the bible

there is a CLEAR LINE that must be made between born-again and sanctification.

there is a reason why in Romans 5 after Paul explains salvation is a free gift, and we have no part in it, he then answers the objection that this means "this is a license of immorality", in Romans 6 he clearly refutes the idea that this means we can go sin how we want.
