What is the purpose of the things I write here?
Am I saying that mainstream Christians are not “Saved”?
No, I am not saying that…
I do not have the authority nor the responsibility to say something like that.
I absolutely would not want to have such a task assigned to me. It is reserved for our Messiah, and only our Messiah.
Isaiah 33:22
For Yehova is our Judge,
Yehova is our Lawgiver,
Yehova is our King—
He will save us!
Romans 2:15-16
15 They show that the work of the Torah is written in their hearts, their conscience bearing witness and their thoughts switching between accusing or defending them 16 on the day when God judges the secrets of men according to my Good News through Messiah Yeshua.
Matthew 28:18
And Yeshua came up to them and spoke to them, saying, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to Me. “
So what am I doing here?
I study the words of scripture and warn people about what I find.
There are many warnings in scripture that, if believed, cause us to question the mainstream church doctrine.
I share what I find in scripture out of love for others.
But most reject it, or are even offended by what I show here.
Often times, they are offended by something that is a direct quote of Yeshua Messiah!!
The idea behind whether or not the mainstream church will be included in the kingdom of heaven is a concept that should be taken seriously. Most just laugh at this idea and label me a fool because of it. This is not my idea – but instead, it is based on what Messiah says in scripture, and upon other statements in scripture.
For example, Yeshua Messiah says this in Matthew 7
23 Then I will declare to them, ‘I never knew you. Get away from Me, you workers of lawlessness!’”
Messiah says that those who are lawless will be rejected.
That describes the general mainstream doctrine.
Our churches teach that the law, the Torah instructions, are done away with. Messiah (not me) says he will send people away who live a lawless life.
The Apostle Peter says this in 2Peter 3, speaking about the writings of Paul:
Some things in them are hard to understand, which the ignorant and unstable twist (as they also do with the rest of the Scriptures)—to their own destruction.
17 Since you already know all this, loved ones, be on your guard so that you are not led astray by the error of the lawless and lose your sure footing.
Peter warns against what the mainstream church teaches.
He specifically says this mistake will result in our destruction. He specifically states that we are not to follow the error of the lawless.
In addition, Yehova says that anyone who profanes the Sabbath will die. His words, not mine.
The mainstream church doctrine rejects keeping the biblical Sabbath described in Torah. That means they will die and be cut off from the people, unless God is a liar, which He is not.
1John gives us a simple test to determine if we are following Messiah in scripture, or some made up god of our own doing:
3 Now we know that we have come to know Him by this—if we keep His commandments. 4 The one who says, “I have come to know Him,” and does not keep His commandments is a liar, and the truth is not in him. 5 But whoever keeps His word, in him the love of God is truly made perfect. We know that we are in Him by this— 6 whoever claims to abide in Him must walk just as He walked.
Messiah tells us that if we love Him, we keep His commandments. If we do not have a heart for the commandments, then that shows we do not love Him (His definition, not mine).
Will He include people who do not love Him in the kingdom?
Entirely up to Him, not me.
Is it ok for us to decide how we will love Him?
People seem to think so, but scripture says otherwise, over and over again.
Messiah asks this in Luke 6:46
“Why do you call Me ‘Master, Master’ and do not do what I say?”
Mainstream doctrine concentrates on the promises of scripture, and tends to ignore all the warnings in scripture.
I study the warnings, and I tell people about them.
Some of these warnings have extremely harsh consequences.
For example, Hebrews 10:26-31
26 For if we keep on sinning willfully after we have received the knowledge of the truth, there no longer remains a sacrifice for sins, 27 but only a terrifying expectation of judgment and a fury of fire about to devour the enemies of God. 28 Anyone who rejected the Torah of Moses dies without compassion on the word of two or three witnesses. 29 How much more severe do you think the punishment will be for the one who has trampled Ben-Elohim underfoot, and has regarded as unholy the blood of the covenant by which he was made holy, and has insulted the Spirit of grace? 30 For we know the One who said, “Vengeance is Mine; I will repay,” and again, “Adonai will judge His people.” 31 It is a terrifying thing to fall into the hands of the living God.
The consequences of failing to heed this warning is that Messiah’s sacrifice no longer covers us. That means no salvation. Is there anything more harsh than that???
Messiah says who will be in His kingdom in Rev 22:14
Blessed are those who do His commandments, that they may have the right to the tree of life, and may enter through the gates into the city.
I do not presume to judge the salvation of others. That is between them and Yeshua Messiah.
I will, however, show the warnings given in scripture and I will not candy coat them…
Each person must decide what they will or will not believe.
More importantly, each person must choose what they will live.
Whether they end up in the kingdom or not is 100% up to Yeshua.
I will have absolutely nothing to do with it, other than to pray for those who violate the warnings I am constantly sharing.
Romans 10:9-13.
