Theologians have rightly condemned the pagan notion of earning salvation by human works, human effort or keeping the law, especially the Mosiac law. But sadly, in their zeal to avoid even a hint of works salvation or legalism, other theologians have erred by ignoring the balance of biblical doctrine and holy living. Enter now Antinomianism. Here certain "believers" think the doctrine of grace has released them from any moral obligation, hence they become anti-law (antinomians). Jesus could not have refuted antinomianism more clearly: Matthew 7:21-23 (ERV)
21 “Not everyone who calls me Lord will enter God’s kingdom. The only people who will enter are those who do what my Father in heaven wants. 22 On that last Day many will call me Lord. They will say, ‘Lord, Lord, by the power of your name we spoke for God. And by your name we forced out demons and did many miracles.’ 23 Then I will tell those people clearly, ‘Get away from me, you people who do wrong. I never knew you.’
Christ is not the minister of sin, we seek to be justified by Christ...
THIS IS NOT A SPORT OR A GAME ANYONE SHOULD PLAY, IT ENDS IN DEATH, IT IS COMING QUICK, GOD WANTS TO REPAY THEM TO THEIR FACE..
Deuteronomy 7:10 And repayeth them that hate him to their face, TO DESTROY THEM: HE WILL NOT BE SLACK TO HIM THAT HATETH HIM, HE WILL REPAY HIM TO HIS FACE.
DO WE NOTICE THE ONES WITH SPOTS AND BLEMISHES ARE THESE DEVIL TEACHERS WHO CANT CONFESS WE MUST BE WITHOUT SPOT AND BLAMELESS? NOTICE BELOW SPOTS THEY ARE AND BLEMISHES> READ WHO IS REDEEMED. Brought up out of the pit, out of death, set upon Christ the rock, and the new song is praise for giving them life..
Psalm 40:2 He brought me up also out of an horrible pit, out of the miry clay, and set my feet upon a rock, and established my goings.
3 And he hath put a new song in my mouth, even praise unto our God: many shall see it, and fear, and shall trust in the Lord.
The song of praise for being worthy to redeem us to God making us kings and priests to God..
Revelation 5:9 And they sung a new song, saying, Thou art worthy to take the book, and to open the seals thereof: for thou wast slain, and hast redeemed us to God by thy blood out of every kindred, and tongue, and people, and nation;
10 And hast made us unto our God kings and priests: and we shall reign on the earth.
Ephesians 5:27 That he might PRESENT IT TO HIMSELF A GLORIOUS CHURCH, NOT HAVING SPOT, or wrinkle, or any such thing; BUT THAT IT SHOULD BE HOLY AND WITHOUT BLEMISH.
1 Peter 1:18 Forasmuch as ye know that ye were NOT REDEEMED WITH CORRUPTIBLE THINGS, as silver and gold, FROM YOUR VAIN CONVERSATION RECEIVED BY TRADITION FROM YOUR FATHERS;
1 Peter 1:19 But with the precious blood of Christ, AS OF A LAMB WITHOUT BLEMISH AND WITHOUT SPOT:
2 Peter 2:13 And SHALL RECEIVE THE REWARD OF UNRIGHTEOUSNESS, as they that count it pleasure to riot in the day time. SPOTS THEY ARE AND BLEMISHES, SPORTING THEMSELVES WITH THEIR OWN DECEIVINGS WHILE THEY FEAST WITH YOU;
2 Peter 2:14 Having eyes full of adultery, AND THAT CANNOT CEASE FROM SIN; beguiling UNSTABLE SOULS: an heart they have exercised with COVETEOUS PRACTISES, CURSED CHILDREN:
2 Peter 2:1 But there were FALSE PROPHETS also among the people, even as there shall be FALSE TEACHERS AMONG YOU, who privily shall bring in damnable heresies, even denying the Lord that bought them, AND BRING UPON THEMSELVES SWIFT DESTRUCTION.
2 Peter 2:3 And through covetousness shall they WITH FEIGNED WORDS make merchandise of you: whose judgment now of a long time lingereth not, AND THEIR DAMNATION SLUMBERETH NOT .
Christ is not the minister of sin, we seek to be justified by Christ...
Galatians 2:17 But if, while we seek to be justified by Christ, we ourselves also are found sinners, is therefore Christ the minister of sin? God forbid.
There were no different rules for the disciples of John the baptist, John the baptist had taught his disciples to pray, a prayer that John showed he had need to be baptised of Christ..
Matthew 3:14 But John forbad him, saying, I have need to be baptized of thee, and comest thou to me?
Matthew 9:14 Then came to him the disciples of John, saying, Why do we and the Pharisees fast oft, but thy disciples fast not?
Jesus taught His disciples to pray, pre- baptism, even the SAME BAPTISM that Christ was baptized of, the Holy Ghost annointing...
Matthew 20:23 And he saith unto them, Ye shall drink indeed of my cup, and be baptized with the baptism that I am baptized with: but to sit on my right hand, and on my left, is not mine to give, but it shall be given to them for whom it is prepared of my Father.
Luke 11:1 And it came to pass, that, as he was praying in a certain place, when he ceased, one of his disciples said unto him, Lord, teach us to pray, as John also taught his disciples.
Then the prayer was to be forgiven of our debts, and to forgive men their debts to us, or our Heavenly Father will not forgive us. He forgives us all of that debt..
Matthew 6:12 And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors.
13 And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil: For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever. Amen.
14 For if ye forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you:
15 But if ye forgive not men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses.
Matthew 18:32 Then his lord, after that he had called him, said unto him, O thou wicked servant, I forgave thee all that debt, because thou desiredst me:
33 Shouldest not thou also have had compassion on thy fellowservant, even as I had pity on thee?
34 And his lord was wroth, and delivered him to the tormentors, till he should pay all that was due unto him.
35 So likewise shall my heavenly Father do also unto you, if ye from your hearts forgive not every one his brother their trespasses.
When anyone receives that Spirit, the Spirit itself makes the prayers for us, it is the Spirit of truth and righteousness that is from then on guiding us, and the mind of the Spirit has to be the mind of Christ to receive intercession for the saints. Also in same way, no need for any man to teach us, but the annointing of the Holy Ghost teaches us ALL THINGS, any one who tries to teach us is a seducer these days..
Romans 8:26 Likewise the Spirit also helpeth our infirmities: for we know not what we should pray for as we ought: but the Spirit itself maketh intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered.
27 And he that searcheth the hearts knoweth what is the mind of the Spirit, because he maketh intercession for the saints according to the will of God.
1 John 2:27 But the anointing which ye have received of him abideth in you, and ye need not that any man teach you: but as the same anointing teacheth you of all things, and is truth, and is no lie, and even as it hath taught you, ye shall abide in him.
NOW we see the DEBT Christ forgave for us, He made His soul the offering for sin, forgiving us all our debts, and the CHASTISEMENT of our peace was upon Him, bruised for our iniquities, not for what He had done. Affliction and chastening is not always for correction of the sins we did, and we follow in His same baptism and same sufferings, even the same cup
1 Peter 4:13 But rejoice, inasmuch as ye are partakers of Christ's sufferings; that, when his glory shall be revealed, ye may be glad also with exceeding joy.
Isaiah 53:4 Surely he hath borne our griefs, and carried our sorrows: yet we did esteem him stricken, smitten of God, and afflicted.
5 But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed.
10 Yet it pleased the Lord to bruise him; he hath put him to grief: when thou shalt make his soul an offering for sin, he shall see his seed, he shall prolong his days, and the pleasure of the Lord shall prosper in his hand.
Continuing on chastening, the Lord scourges every son He receives, even as Christ was wounded afflicted and bruised with chastisement upon Him, it is not for sin we continue to do, it is to LEARN OBEDIENCE BY WE ALSO SUFFER IN THE SAME SUFFERINGS OF CHRIST..
Hebrews 5:8 Though he were A SON, yet LEARNED HE OBEDIENCE BY THE THINGS WHICH HE SUFFERED;
9 And being made perfect, he became the author of eternal salvation unto all them that obey him;
Hebrews 12:5 And ye have forgotten the exhortation which speaketh unto you as unto children, My son, despise not thou the chastening of the Lord, nor faint when thou art rebuked of him:
6 For whom the Lord loveth he chasteneth, and SCOURGETH EVERY SON WHOM HE RECEIVETH.
Hebrews 2:10 For it became him, for whom are all things, and by whom are all things, IN BRINGING MANY SONS UNTO GLORY, TO MAKE THE CAPTAIN OF THEIR SALVATION PERFECT THROUGH SUFFERINGS.
11 FOR BOTH HE THAT SANCTIFIETH AND THEY WHO ARE SANCTIFIED ARE ALL ONE: for which cause he is not ashamed to call them brethren,
Same baptism as Christ, same cup, same sufferings, same afflictions and chastenings as the sufferings make us obedient and perfect, and converted after Christ is risen from the dead, as His blood is precious when shed. The sinner needs converting, they confess what they do..
.Luke 22:32 But I have prayed for thee, that thy faith fail not: and when thou art converted, strengthen thy brethren
James 5:16 Confess your faults one to another, and pray one for another, that ye may be healed. The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much.
19 Brethren, if any of you do err from the truth, and one convert him;
20 Let him know, that he which converteth the sinner from the error of his way shall save a soul from death, and shall hide a multitude of sins.
There are TWO WAYS, one of being converted and one of not being converted, they are hardly the same, as it makes ALL DIFFERENCE..2 Corinthians 5:17 Therefore if any man be in Christ, HE IS A NEW CREATURE, OLD THINGS ARE PASSED AWAY, BEHOLD, ALL THINGS ARE BECOME NEW.
Prophetic says confess, lets see what is confessed, we know that the CHASTISEMENT OF OUR PEACE WAS UPON CHRIST, and EVERY SON INCLUDING CHRIST RECEIVED BEGOTTEN of the dead..Hebrews 1:5 For unto which of the angels said he at any time, Thou art my Son, THIS DAY HAVE I BEGOTTEN THEE? And again, I WILL BE TO HIM A FATHER, AND HE SHALL BE TO ME A SON? 1 John 5:18 We know that whosoever is BORN OF GOD SINNETH NOT; BUT HE THAT IS BEGOTTEN OF GOD KEEPETH HIMSELF, AND THAT WICKED ONE TOUCHETH HIM NOT.
TWO WAYS OR WE DISAGREE? To one, God says, He had not found the ways perfect. To others they were not told to repent, but that they had not defiled their garments, for they are worthy?
Revelation 3:2 Be watchful, and strengthen the things which remain, that are ready to die: for I have not found thy works perfect before God.
3 Remember therefore how thou hast received and heard, and hold fast, and repent. If therefore thou shalt not watch, I will come on thee as a thief, and thou shalt not know what hour I will come upon thee.
4 Thou hast a few names even in Sardis which have not defiled their garments; and they shall walk with me in white: for they are worthy.
Setting the hand of Christ in the seas and rivers, is ownership of them all, Christ is both firstborn and firstfruits..
Psalm 89:25 I will set his hand also in the sea, and his right hand in the rivers.
26 He shall cry unto me, Thou art my father, my God, and the rock of my salvation.
27 Also I will make him my firstborn, higher than the kings of the earth.
1 Corinthians 15:20 But now is Christ risen from the dead, and become the firstfruits of them that slept.
1 Corinthians 15:23 But every man in his own order: Christ the firstfruits; afterward they that are Christ's at his coming.
24 Then cometh the end, when he shall have delivered up the kingdom to God, even the Father; when he shall have put down all rule and all authority and power.
The angel has right to stand on the sea and the earth, right to declare there is time no longer, only Christ was worthy, no one else, and Christ is both the mystery of God and Godliness and finishes that mystery, exactly as told just above, the mystery and end comes when, He has put down all rule and all authority and power delivering up the kingdom to God..
1 Timothy 3:16 And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness: God was manifest in the flesh, justified in the Spirit, seen of angels, preached unto the Gentiles, believed on in the world, received up into glory.
John 19:30 When Jesus therefore had received the vinegar, he said, It is finished: and he bowed his head, and gave up the ghost.
Revelation 10:5 And the angel which I saw stand upon the sea and upon the earth lifted up his hand to heaven,
6 And sware by him that liveth for ever and ever, who created heaven, and the things that therein are, and the earth, and the things that therein are, and the sea, and the things which are therein, that there should be time no longer:
7 But in the days of the voice of the seventh angel, when he shall begin to sound, the mystery of God should be finished, as he hath declared to his servants the prophets.
Christ the firstfruits from the dead, the first begotten of the dead, making us kings and priests unto God..
Revelation 1:5 And from Jesus Christ, who is the faithful witness, and the first begotten of the dead, and the prince of the kings of the earth. Unto him that loved us, and washed us from our sins in his own blood,
6 And hath made us kings and priests unto God and his Father; to him be glory and dominion for ever and ever. Amen.
Let the redeemed of the Lord give that praise of that new song of life, redeemed from the enemy, death, gathered from all the corners of the earth. Satisfying the hungry soul with righteousness and with goodness of the Holy Spirit. Sitting in the darkness of the shadow of death, having rebelled through the rebel satan and Adam received death, not choosing the warning of God not to eat what was prohibited, cursing the ground and living by the sweat of our brow, crying to the Lord delivering us from this curse, breaking the bands of death and its strength in pieces..
1 Corinthians 15:54 So when this corruptible shall have put on incorruption, and this mortal shall have put on immortality, then shall be brought to pass the saying that is written, Death is swallowed up in victory.
55 O death, where is thy sting? O grave, where is thy victory?
56 The sting of death is sin; and the strength of sin is the law.
57 But thanks be to God, which giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.
Psalm 107:O give thanks unto the Lord, for he is good: for his mercy endureth for ever.
2 Let the redeemed of the Lord say so, whom he hath redeemed from the hand of the enemy;
3 And gathered them out of the lands, from the east, and from the west, from the north, and from the south.
Psalm 107:9 For he satisfieth the longing soul, and filleth the hungry soul with goodness.
10 Such as sit in darkness and in the shadow of death, being bound in affliction and iron;
11 Because they rebelled against the words of God, and contemned the counsel of the most High:
12 Therefore he brought down their heart with labour; they fell down, and there was none to help.
13 Then they cried unto the Lord in their trouble, and he saved them out of their distresses.
14 He brought them out of darkness and the shadow of death, and brake their bands in sunder.
Now Israel knows that song only, Christ is Israel, He is the Holy one of Israel, and they that are with him are called chosen and faithful..
Revelation 17:14 These shall make war with the Lamb, and the Lamb shall overcome them: for he is Lord of lords, and King of kings: and they that are with him are called, and chosen, and faithful.
Jeremiah 31:1 At the same time, saith the Lord, will I be the God of all the families of Israel, and they shall be my people.

Ezekiel 39:29 Neither will I hide my face any more from them: for I have poured out my spirit upon the house of Israel, saith the Lord God.
Now the pure river, with the new firstfruits, and they are for the healing of the nations, these twelve tribes of Israel..
Ezekiel 47:12 And by the river upon the bank thereof, on this side and on that side, shall grow all trees for meat, whose leaf shall not fade, neither shall the fruit thereof be consumed: it shall bring forth new fruit according to his months, because their waters they issued out of the sanctuary: and the fruit thereof shall be for meat, and the leaf thereof for medicine.
13 Thus saith the Lord God; This shall be the border, whereby ye shall inherit the land according to the twelve tribes of Israel: Joseph shall have two portions.
14 And ye shall inherit it, one as well as another: concerning the which I lifted up mine hand to give it unto your fathers: and this land shall fall unto you for inheritance.
15 And this shall be the border of the land toward the north side, from the great sea, the way of Hethlon, as men go to Zedad;
16 Hamath, Berothah, Sibraim, which is between the border of Damascus and the border of Hamath; Hazarhatticon, which is by the coast of Hauran.
17 And the border from the sea shall be Hazarenan, the border of Damascus, and the north northward, and the border of Hamath. And this is the north side.
18 And the east side ye shall measure from Hauran, and from Damascus, and from Gilead, and from the land of Israel by Jordan, from the border unto the east sea. And this is the east side.
19 And the south side southward, from Tamar even to the waters of strife in Kadesh, the river to the great sea. And this is the south side southward.
20 The west side also shall be the great sea from the border, till a man come over against Hamath. This is the west side.
21 So shall ye divide this land unto you according to the tribes of Israel.
22 And it shall come to pass, that ye shall divide it by lot for an inheritance unto you, and to the strangers that sojourn among you, which shall beget children among you: and they shall be unto you as born in the country among the children of Israel; they shall have inheritance with you among the tribes of Israel.
23 And it shall come to pass, that in what tribe the stranger sojourneth, there shall ye give him his inheritance, saith the Lord God.

Exodus 3:15 And God said moreover unto Moses, Thus shalt thou SAY UNTO THE CHILDREN OF ISRAEL, the Lord God of your fathers, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and THE GOD OF JACOB, hath sent me unto you: THIS IS MY NAME FOR EVER, and this is my memorial unto all generations.

Acts 3:13 The God of Abraham, and of Isaac, and of Jacob, the God of our fathers, hath glorified his Son Jesus; whom ye delivered up, and denied him in the presence of Pilate, when he was determined to let him go.
14 But ye denied the Holy One and the Just, and desired a murderer to be granted unto you;
15 And killed the Prince of life, whom God hath raised from the dead; whereof we are witnesses.
Psalm 2:1 Why do the heathen rage, and the people imagine a vain thing?
2 The kings of the earth set themselves, and the rulers take counsel together, against the Lord, and against his anointed, saying,
3 Let us break their bands asunder, and cast away their cords from us.
4 He that sitteth in the heavens shall laugh: the Lord shall have them in derision.
Acts 4:24 And when they heard that, they lifted up their voice to God with one accord, and said, Lord, thou art God, which hast made heaven, and earth, and the sea, and all that in them is:

26 The kings of the earth stood up, and the rulers were gathered together against the Lord, and against his Christ.
27 For of a truth against thy holy child Jesus, whom thou hast anointed, both Herod, and Pontius Pilate, with the Gentiles, and the people of Israel, were gathered together,
28 For to do whatsoever thy hand and thy counsel determined before to be done.
Psalm 2:5 Then shall he speak unto them in his wrath, and vex them in his sore displeasure.

9 Thou shalt break them with a rod of iron; thou shalt dash them in pieces like a potter's vessel.
Revelation 19:15 And out of his mouth goeth a sharp sword, that with it he should smite the nations: and he shall rule them with a rod of iron: and he treadeth the winepress of the fierceness and wrath of Almighty God.
Proceeding out of the throne of God and of the Lamb, from the sanctuary, sand the leaves of the tree for the healing of the nations, no more curse and they have that seal name in their foreheads through the 12 tribes of Israel..
Revelation 22: 1 And he shewed me a pure river of water of life, clear as crystal, proceeding out of the throne of God and of the Lamb.
2 In the midst of the street of it, and on either side of the river, was there the tree of life, which bare twelve manner of fruits, and yielded her fruit every month: and the leaves of the tree were for the healing of the nations.
3 And there shall be no more curse: but the throne of God and of the Lamb shall be in it; and his servants shall serve him:
4 And they shall see his face; and his name shall be in their foreheads.
Revelation 14:3 And they sung as it were a new song before the throne, and before the four beasts, and the elders: and no man could learn that song but the hundred and forty and four thousand, which were redeemed from the earth.
4 These are they which were not defiled with women; for they are virgins. These are they which follow the Lamb whithersoever he goeth. These were redeemed from among men, being the firstfruits unto God and to the Lamb.
5 And in their mouth was found no guile: for they are without fault before the throne of God.
Galatians 6:15 For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision availeth any thing, nor uncircumcision, BUT A NEW CREATURE.
16 And as many as walk according to this rule, peace be on them, and mercy, AND UPON THE ISRAEL OF GOD.
2 Corinthians 11:2 For I am jealous over you with godly jealousy: for I have espoused you to one husband, that I may present you as a chaste virgin to Christ.

5 Of the tribe of Juda were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Reuben were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Gad were sealed twelve thousand.
6 Of the tribe of Aser were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Nephthalim were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Manasses were sealed twelve thousand.

8 Of the tribe of Zabulon were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Joseph were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Benjamin were sealed twelve thousand.
9 After this I beheld, and, lo, a great multitude, which no man could number, of all nations, and kindreds, and people, and tongues, stood before the throne, and before the Lamb, clothed with white robes, and palms in their hands;
Revelation 14:6 And I saw another angel fly in the midst of heaven, having the everlasting gospel to preach unto them that dwell on the earth, and to every nation, and kindred, and tongue, and people,
7 Saying with a loud voice, FEAR GOD, AND GIVE HIM GLORY; for the hour of his judgment is come: and worship him that made heaven, and earth, and the sea, and the fountains of waters.
Just read through the Epistles and we do not see one way, we see TWO? To one example to the Corinthians they must after being confirmed be confirmed to the end to be BLAMELESS..
1 Corinthians 1:6 Even as the testimony of Christ was confirmed in you:
7 So that ye come behind in no gift; waiting for the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ:
8 Who shall also confirm you unto the end, that ye may be blameless in the day of our Lord Jesus Christ.
Quickly we see the other way, the way of them failing doing fornication, and the one who does those things has no command to repent, they will corrupt the believers, who are told to cast out that wicked person/persons..
1 Corinthians 5:1 It is reported commonly that there is fornication among you, and such fornication as is not so much as named among the Gentiles, that one should have his father's wife.
2 And ye are puffed up, and have not rather mourned, that he that hath done this deed might be taken away from among you.
1 Corinthians 5:11 But now I have written unto you not to keep company, if any man that is called a brother be a fornicator, or covetous, or an idolator, or a railer, or a drunkard, or an extortioner; with such an one no not to eat.
12 For what have I to do to judge them also that are without? do not ye judge them that are within?
13 But them that are without God judgeth. Therefore put away from among yourselves that wicked person.
The Galatians have correction when they have returned to their vomit, to bondage of sin, that way does need repenting of..
Galatians 4:9 But now, after that ye have known God, or rather are known of God, how turn ye again to the weak and beggarly elements, whereunto ye desire again to be in bondage?
10 Ye observe days, and months, and times, and years.
The Ephesians here are written how the choosing in Him is to be HOLY WITHOUT BLAME BEFORE HIM IN LOVE, and for the Philippians here to both be BLAMELESS AND HARMLESS THE SONS OF GOD WITHOUT REBUKE, and exhorted by Peter to be found in Him, WITHOUT SPOT AND BLAMELESS..
Ephesians 1:4 According as he hath chosen us in him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before him in love:
Philippians 2:15 That ye may be blameless and harmless, the sons of God, without rebuke, in the midst of a crooked and perverse nation, among whom ye shine as lights in the world;
2 Peter 3:14 Wherefore, beloved, seeing that ye look for such things, be diligent that ye may be found of him in peace, without spot, and blameless.
The proof of all that including the testimony for the Lords Holy Apostles, is not that they are found sinners, that is for the ones to blame to confess their failings, but the Apostles confess as told: They behaved HOLILY AND JUSTLY AND UNBLAMABLY, WALKING WORTHY OF GOD WHO CALLED THEM TO HIS KINGDOM AND GLORY
1 Thessalonians 2:10 Ye are witnesses, and God also, how holily and justly and unblameably we behaved ourselves among you that believe:
11 As ye know how we exhorted and comforted and charged every one of you, as a father doth his children,
12 That ye would walk worthy of God, who hath called you unto his kingdom and glory.
Christ is able to present you FAULTLESS AND KEEP YOU FROM FALLING AS THAT IS TO BE IN THE PRESENCE OF HIS GLORY, AND TESTIFIED, IN THEIR MOUTH WAS FOUND NO GUILE, FOR THEY ARE WITHOUT FAULT BEFORE THE THRONE OF GOD..
Jude 1:24 Now unto him that is able to keep you from falling, and to present you faultless before the presence of his glory with exceeding joy,
Revelation 14:5 And in their mouth was found no guile: for they are without fault before the throne of God.
LABOUR TO B E ACCEPTED OF HIM, BECAUSE OTHERWISE YOU RECEIVED THE GRACE OF GOD IN VAIN, SIMPLE AS THAT, RECEIVING JUDGEMENT FOR THE BAD THAT WAS NOT CEASED. GIVE NO OFFENCE IN ANYTHING, APPROVING YOURSELVES IN THE PATIENCE AFFLICTIONS AND DISTRESSES ABOUNDING AND OVERFLOWING NOT WANTING..Daniel 5:27 Tekel; Thou art weighed in the balances, and art found wanting...Proverbs 11:1 A false balance is abomination to the Lord: but a just weight is his delight.
2 Corinthians 5:9 Wherefore we labour, that, whether present or absent, we may be accepted of him.
10 For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ; that every one may receive the things done in his body, according to that he hath done, whether it be good or bad.
2 Corinthians 6:We then, as workers together with him, beseech you also that ye receive not the grace of God in vain.
2 (For he saith, I have heard thee in a time accepted, and in the day of salvation have I succoured thee: behold, now is the accepted time; behold, now is the day of salvation.)
3 Giving no offence in any thing, that the ministry be not blamed:
4 But in all things approving ourselves as the ministers of God, in much patience, in afflictions, in necessities, in distresses,
Last reproof, there are the promises, now CLEANSE OURSELVES FROM ALL FILTHINESS OF THE FLESH AND SPIRIT IS PERFECTING HOLINESS IN THE FEAR OF GOD. NOT TO BE REPENTED OF, CLEARING OF YOURSELVES WITH FEAR AND ZEAL, APPROVING YOURSELVES. OTHERWISE THEY FEAR, YOU IN DEBATES AND ENVY AND STRIFE AND THEN YOU NEVER REPENTED OF THE UNCLEANNESS AND LASCIVIOUSNESS AND FORNICATION THEY DID..
2 Corinthians 7:1 Having therefore these promises, dearly beloved, let us cleanse ourselves from all filthiness of the flesh and spirit, perfecting holiness in the fear of God.
2 Corinthians 7:10 For godly sorrow worketh repentance to salvation not to be repented of: but the sorrow of the world worketh death.
11 For behold this selfsame thing, that ye sorrowed after a godly sort, what carefulness it wrought in you, yea, what clearing of yourselves, yea, what indignation, yea, what fear, yea, what vehement desire, yea, what zeal, yea, what revenge! In all things ye have approved yourselves to be clear in this matter.
2 Corinthians 12:20 For I fear, lest, when I come, I shall not find you such as I would, and that I shall be found unto you such as ye would not: lest there be debates, envyings, wraths, strifes, backbitings, whisperings, swellings, tumults:
21 And lest, when I come again, my God will humble me among you, and that I shall bewail many which have sinned already, and have not repented of the uncleanness and fornication and lasciviousness which they have committed.
ARM WITH THAT MIND OF CHRIST, SUFFER IN THE FLESH MEANS YOU CEASE PLEASURE IN FLESH AND CEASE SIN, NOW TO THE WILL OF GOD..
1 Peter 4:1 Forasmuch then as Christ hath suffered for us in the flesh, arm yourselves likewise with the same mind: for he that hath suffered in the flesh hath ceased from sin;
2 That he no longer should live the rest of his time in the flesh to the lusts of men, but to the will of God.
WHEN SERVANTS OF SIN FREE FROM ANY ACT OF RIGHTEOUSNESS, NOW EXPECTED TO BE ASHAMED, NOT UNASHAMED AND NEVER CEASING THEM, AS NOW MADE FREE FROM SIN, FOR THE WAGES OF SIN AR DEATH, AND JUST AS YOU CANNOT CONFESS ANY RIGHTEOUSNESS YOU DID BEFORE FAITH IN CHRIST YOU ALSO LIKEWISE CANNOT CONFESS ANY UNRIGHTEOUSNESS IF YOU ARE IN HIM..
Romans 6:20 For when ye were the servants of sin, ye were free from righteousness.
21 What fruit had ye then in those things whereof ye are now ashamed? for the end of those things is death.
22 But now being made free from sin, and become servants to God, ye have your fruit unto holiness, and the end everlasting life.
23 For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.
THE GIFT OF GOD THROUGH JESUS CHRIST OUR LORD, NONE DID GOOD OR SOUGHT AFTER GOD, NOW JUSTIFIED FREELY BY HIS GRACE, THE REMISSION OF SINS THAT ARE PAST, AND CHRIST IS JUST AND THE JUSTIFIER OF HIM THAT BELIEVETH IN JESUS, AND IF WE SAY WE HAVE NOT SINNED WE LIE, SO WE CONFESS THE SINS THAT ARE PAST AND BE JUSTIFIED..
Romans 3:10 As it is written, There is none righteous, no, not one:
11 There is none that understandeth, there is none that seeketh after God.
12 They are all gone out of the way, they are together become unprofitable; there is none that doeth good, no, not one.
Romans 3:24 Being justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus:
25 Whom God hath set forth to be a propitiation through faith in his blood, to declare his righteousness for the remission of sins that are past, through the forbearance of God;
26 To declare, I say, at this time his righteousness: that he might be just, and the justifier of him which believeth in Jesus.
1 John 1:9 If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.
PAUL WAS SAUL, AND HE NAMES HIMSELF CHIEF SINNER. HE OBTAINED MERCY AS THAT CHIEF SINNER FOR THE SAME CAUSE, SO THAT CHRIST CAN SHOW A PATTERN OF ALL LONGSUFFERING IN PAUL (HOLY APOSTLE PAUL IS REMEMBERING THE PAST WHEN HE ORIGINALLY OBTAINED THAT MERCY) AND EXHORTS TIMOTHY TO WAR A GOOD WARFARE, HOLDING FAITH AND A GOOD CONSCIENCE..
1 Timothy 1:15 This is a faithful saying, and worthy of all acceptation, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners; of whom I am chief.
16 Howbeit for this cause I obtained mercy, that in me first Jesus Christ might shew forth all longsuffering, for a pattern to them which should hereafter believe on him to life everlasting.
17 Now unto the King eternal, immortal, invisible, the only wise God, be honour and glory for ever and ever. Amen.
18 This charge I commit unto thee, son Timothy, according to the prophecies which went before on thee, that thou by them mightest war a good warfare;
19 Holding faith, and a GOOD CONSCIENCE; which some having put away concerning faith have made shipwreck:
THE SAME WEAPONS OF PAUL'S WARFARE ARE NOT CARNAL, BUT CASTING DOWN THROUGH GOD IMAGINATIONS AND EVERY HIGH THING THAT EXALTS ITSELF AGAINST THE KNOWLEDGE OF CHRIST AND BRINGING INTO SUBJECTION EVERY THOUGHT TO THE OBEDIENCE OF CHRIST, BECAUSE THERE IS RESURRECTION NOT JUST OF THE UNJUST BUT OF THE JUST TOO, AND SO NOW PAUL STILL CHIEF SINNER OR NOW EXERCISES HIMSELF TO HAVE ALWAYS A CONSCIENCE WITHOUT OFFENCE TO GOD OR MAN?
2 Corinthians 10:3 For though we walk in the flesh, we do not war after the flesh:
4 (For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strong holds;)
5 Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ;
Acts 24:15 And have hope toward God, which they themselves also allow, that there shall be a resurrection of the dead, both of the just and unjust.
16 And herein do I exercise myself, to have ALWAYS A CONSCIENCE VOID TO OFFENCE toward God, and toward men.
WHO ARE THESE WEAK BROTHERS who are overtaken in faults, needing to confess their sins, needing to be converted and changed where all old is passed away AND ALL BECOME NEW?
They are not THE SPIRITUAL, they are THE CARNAL..
1 Corinthians 3:And I, brethren, could not speak unto you as unto spiritual, but as unto carnal, even as unto babes in Christ.
2 I have fed you with milk, and not with meat: for hitherto ye were NOT ABLE TO BEAR IT, neither yet now are ye able.
3 For ye are yet carnal: for whereas there is among you envying, and strife, and divisions, are ye not carnal, and walk as men?
Galatians 6:1 Brethren, if a man be overtaken in a fault, YE WHICH ARE SPIRITUAL, restore such an one in the spirit of meekness; considering thyself, lest thou also be tempted.
The weak also are listed with the unruly, and the feebleminded..
1 Thessalonians 5:14 Now we exhort you, brethren, warn them that are unruly, comfort the feebleminded, support the weak, be patient toward all men.
THEY ARE WEAK IN THE FAITH..
Romans 14:1 Him that is weak in the faith receive ye, but not to doubtful disputations.
WE STAND BY STRONG FAITH NOT WEAK
1 Corinthians 16:13 Watch ye, stand fast in the faith, quit you like men, be strong.
Romans 11:20 Well; because of unbelief they were broken off, and thou standest by faith. Be not highminded, but fear:
The weak are not edified, neither strong in the faith nor spiritual, they are not standing yet..
Romans 15:1 We then that are strong ought to bear the infirmities of the weak, and not to please ourselves.
2 Let every one of us please his neighbour for his good to edification.
When born of God they must have strong faith, because we are supposed to believe the promises, as testified here, or it is testified to you for nothing, NOT BEING WEAK IN FAITH, NOT CONSIDERING DOUBT, NOT STAGGERING AT THE PROMISES OF GOD, BUT BEING STRONG IN FAITH GIVING GLORY TO GOD
Romans 4:19 And being not weak in faith, he considered not his own body now dead, when he was about an hundred years old, neither yet the deadness of Sarah's womb:
20 HE STAGGERED NOT AT THE PROMISES OF GOD THROUGH UNBELIEF, BUT WAS STRONG IN FAITH, giving glory to God;
2 Corinthians 7:1 HAVING THEREFORE THESE PROMISES, dearly beloved, LET US CLEANSE OURSELVES FROM ALL FILTHINESS OF THE FLESH AND SPIRIT, PERFECTING HOLINESS IN THE FEAR OF GOD.
Hebrews 6:12 That ye BE NOT SLOTHFUL, BUT FOLLOWERS OF THEM WHO THROUGH FAITH AND PATIENCE INHERIT THE PROMISES.
2 Peter 1:3 According as HIS DIVINE POWER hath given unto us all things that pertain unto life and godliness, through the knowledge of him that hath called us to glory and virtue:
4 Whereby are given unto us EXCEEDING GREAT AND PRECIOUS PROMISES: THAT BY THESE YE MIGHT BE PARTTAKERS OF THE DIVINE NATURE, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust.
5 And beside this, GIVING ALL DILLIGENCE, ADD TO YOUR FAITH VIRTUE; and to virtue knowledge;
6 And to knowledge temperance; and to temperance patience; and to patience godliness;
7 And to godliness brotherly kindness; and to brotherly kindness charity.
8 For if these things be in you, and abound, they make you that ye shall neither be barren nor unfruitful in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ.
9 BUT HE THAT LACKETH THESE THINGS IS BLIND, AND CANNOT SEE AFAR OFF, AND HATH FORGOTTEN THAT HE WAS PURGED FROM HIS OLD SINS.
10 Wherefore the rather, brethren, give diligence to make your calling and election sure: for if ye do these things, ye shall never fall:
THE WEAK ALSO ARE SICKLY, NOT HEALED AND THE NEXT STAGE IS DEATH, WHICH LISTENING TO THESE FALSE TEACHERS BRINGS US DEATH TOO..
1 Corinthians 11:27 Wherefore whosoever shall eat this bread, and drink this cup of the Lord, unworthily, shall be guilty of the body and blood of the Lord.
28 But let a man examine himself, and so let him eat of that bread, and drink of that cup.
29 For he that eateth and drinketh unworthily, eateth and drinketh damnation to himself, not discerning the Lord's body.
30 FOR THIS CAUSE MANY ARE WEAK AND SICKLY AMONG YOU, and many sleep.
