For the message of the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God. 1 Corinthians 1:18 CJB
The teachings of the Lord are new, however he did go into great detail about the deceptions and lies people follow. And how over the years it all came about. And this teaching is about all aspects of life, not just your salvation. Because all aspects of life are to be used to work out your salvation. So many people think there is a time for God and a time for everything else. They spend their hour on Sundays , and maybe a few minutes here and there during the week reading a bible or something, and think they are good with God.
And the man made doctrine supports this. So the Lord Yeshua took me through all the things over the years which little by little changed what we know or think is truth.
The first thing he said was, he is the TRUTH. And pointed out John chapter 10, and specifically John 18:37 where Yeshua says “those who are of the truth will hear my voice.” Note he says they will as in future tense. Not they did as in past tense.
And everything said by the disciples since always supports this, the hearing and obeying of Yeshua. He is the only way and truth, he is the light or wisdom. And no one gets to the Father except through him!
So let’s look at how the modern religious people got to this point of “you are saved by this fake grace.” As the Lord Yeshua showed it to me.
First is in around 300 AD, the Greeks took the bible and translated it to Greek and then eventually to English. Much was lost in this translation including the changing of the name of the Lord from Yeshua to Jesus and adding the last name Cristo or Christ in English. And because the Greeks had many gods they did some things to make the traditions look like it is the same. For example they took the birthday of one of their god’s Nimrod and made Yeshua’s birthday the same day. And they took some traditions about easter and made it the day Yeshua died.
If you look hard in the bible, nowhere does it mention a day of birth for Yeshua, nor a day he died. No one has any idea when these days are. Plus easter changes every year.
But more importantly is nowhere in the bible does it speak of any sort of celebration of his birth or death. The Jews had their feast and celebrations, which ironically no one celebrates or keeps, but they made up new ones that are not of God. And they are based on pagan worship, not much better than halloween.
The next thing Yeshua made a point of again, is the catholic church system made many changes over the years with things like the nicene convention. And they continue to make changes, every time there is a new pope there is a new set of guidelines to follow. So in the minds of them and their followers, the pope is the guy making the rules for God to follow instead of God making the rules for the pope and the church to follow. How messed up and opposite is that?
So moving on, in the late 1,700’s. Shortly after the printing press came around and started printing the bible. They again changed the wording of the bible, making it less about the relationship in knowing God and obeying him. To, going to church and obeying the church system while reading the changed bible. Oh and make sure you give your tithes!
Then over these years we have many more men come in and change the bible even more to the point where we now have more than 50 versions of it. Many with a similar point, but some way out there. So which one do you follow as your relationship with God? Which you cannot consider this a relationship with God, but the majority of the people do make their church attendance and bible study their relationship. They make the bible the word of God, but the point of Yeshua is how can they, with knowing this information? That the bible has been changed many times over and which translation would you even listen to?
So then he made the point again about the late 1,800’s and the three preachers who came around. The Jehovah witness founder Charles Russell. The later day saints founder Joseph Smith Jr. and a guy who formed the saved by grace and once saved always saved doctrine, Billy Sunday. Which is the main one most followed these days because getting saved is extremely easy. It requires nothing from you, according to this doctrine. People like easy and to hear what they want to hear, so it is a great doctrine to fill church seats.
So this is the point of Yeshua, what started as a church set on hearing his voice and obeying him, slowly over all these years evolved into numerous church systems with numerous lies on how to be saved, none of which ever tell you to hear him and obey him, and he will tell you what changes to make in your life to be set free from sin and live a life righteousness. A life worthy of repentance, a Holy life. A life which does not demand or expect more than what is right, but also does not give up what is right.
So many “christians” make it about the going the extra mile, and turning the other check and giving to your brother in need, feeding his sheep. And the men twist this so it benefits them without them giving anything back in return. They hide behind saved by grace doctrine as their reason to not do anything or give anything, yet because you speak of your deep relationship with the Lord, they think you owe them and should do everything for them.
But with God, what is right is right. What is good for the goose is good for the gander. The bible speaks as much about lazy people and what happens to them, see the story of the talents spoken about many times. But the people ignore that one if they are lazy and do not do their part in favor of how the ones who turned 5 talents into 10 need to give to the people with one or no talents. But remember Yeshua said they would take the 1 talent from the guy and give it to the one with 10, then through the lazy wicked servant in the fire.
But the people do not want to hear this, they want to hear how they are saved by grace because they did the sinners prayer and or alter call, and have faith on what Jesus Christ did on the cross.
Well, Jesus Christ did not die on a cross, he never existed to die on a cross. So any doctrine based on Jesus Christ is a lie. However Yeshua did exist and did die on a cross (in the original text they use the word stake instead of cross). But his original doctrine and that of his disciples, was always about knowing him and obeying him and he would purify you and make you Holy. Yeshua has the power to cleanse you and keep you from the evil adversary. Jesus, he has no power because he never existed.
This lesson is with everything. The men who follow the adversary are lying to us about everything, which then keeps us from being set free Spiritually. It keeps us fat and unhealthy. It keeps us broke financially. And it causes many mental problems.
As mentioned from reading about King Saul (Sh’aul original Hebrew). When Saul disobeyed God and did not kill the King and the animals. God’s Spirit left him, and God sent an evil spirit which tormented him often.
When Sampson told his secret and lost his power and eyes. Same thing, he disobeyed God and paid a price. King David, same thing, the few times he disobeyed it cost him dearly, one of those times being his son. And the list goes on with those who disobeyed and paid a price.
It is not different today, you do not listen to Yeshua and disobey, and you will pay the same price as everyone else. Which is bad health, being fat, or maybe you are in excellent shape and worship your body instead of God? Being broke (or rich and married to your money, worshipping your money instead of God). Maybe you have mental issues, which many just think it is bad luck, but it is not. It is a punishment from God for not living a righteous life. If you live a righteous life in him, mental illness is not possible, nor is being fat and unhealthy. And if right with him, no matter how much money you have or do not have. You will never “worry about what you eat or what you will wear. Because your Father in heaven knows what you need.” And he will provide it to those who worship him in Spirit and truth.
Everything comes back to this one point of doctrine, do you know and obey Yeshua? Or do you worship another made up god that man created over many years? Because think about this, up until the men like Billy Sunday came along, there was a much different doctrine, but somehow men believe in their minds that his doctrine which is about 130 years old. So ask yourself this question? How did his doctrine become the same doctrine Paul taught? When no one taught this doctrine up until he did some 130 years ago? And if he was of God, how did he teach of a man named Jesus Christ and not Yeshua?
If this does not explain the verses Paul wrote about “they will heap up preachers telling them what their itching ears want to hear… And God will send them a delusion so they believe the lie!” Then what does? And keep in mind when Paul wrote these he also said it would be the end of times.
