Are you a believer in Messiah,do you know who He is,and what He is like as recorded in the Scriptures .
If you are a believer; in this life are you seeking,-expecting to go to Heaven ( a place ) OR are you seeking-expecting to know Messiah, and to know ABBA ( the person ).
A person can seek the place and never know the person, BUT once you know the person, as His heir you get everything He has.
Seek first the KINGSHIP of GOD and His righteousness ...

They are from the world and therefore **SPEAK FROM THE VIEWPOINT OF THE WORLD**, and the world listens to them. We are from God, and whoever knows God listens to us This is how we recognize the Spirit of truth and the spirit of falsehood!
2 Peter 2:1-3: But there were **FALSE PROPHETS** among the people, just as there will be **FALSE TEACHERS** among you.

I Peter 1:23-25: For you have been **BORN AGAIN THROUGH** the **LIVING AND ENDURING WORD OF GOD**.

He will not speak on his own; he will speak only what he hears, and he will tell you what is yet to come. He will **GLORIFY ME** BECAUSE IT IS **FROM ME** THAT HE WILL RECEIVE WHAT HE MAKE KNOWN TO YOU**!
And holy spirit inspired the 8 writers of the 27 books of the New Testament to write everything Jesus told him to write!!
Hebrews 12:1,2: Let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us, fiving your eyes on **JESUS**, the **AUTHOR** and **PERFECTER** of our faith!!
Acts 26:16-18: Jesus said to Paul, "I have appeared to you to appoint you as a servant and as a **WITNESS** of what you have seen and will see of Me. I will rescue from your own people and from the Gentiles. AI am sending you to them to open their eyes and turn fron darkness to light, and from the power of Satan to God, so that they may receive **FORGIVENESS OF SINS** and a place among those who are **SANCTIFIED BY FAITH IN ME**!"
Acts 22:14,15: Ananias said to Paul, "The God of our ancestors has chosen you **TO KNOW HIS WILL**and to see the Righteous One and to **HEAR WORDS FROM HIS MOUTH**. You will be **HIS WITNESS TO ALL PEOPLE OF WHAT YOU HAVE SEEN AND HEARD**!"
THE GREAT COMMISSION: Matthew 28:18-20: Jesus says, “**ALL AUTHORITY** in heaven and on ***EARTH*** has been given to **ME** {Not some RC Pope}.

John 12:48: Jesus says, There is a Judge for the one who does not accept My Words {Like Acts 26:16-18 above}; the very words I have spoken will condemn them at the Last Day!!"
2 Peter 3:15,16: Bear in mind that our Lord's patience means salvation, just as our **DEAR BROTHER PAUL** also wrote you with the **WISDOM THAT GOD GAVE TO HIM** He writes the same way in all his letters, speaking in them of these matters. His letters contain some things that are hard to understand {For the unsaved} which ignorant unstable people {Like Quiznos} distort as they do other Scriptures, to their own destruction! {Eternal torment in Hell}
Anti means To stand Against, or to take the place of.
When a person judges another to condemn that person to hell, the person judging is an antichrist, that person is taking the place of Messiah, thus also standing against Him.
Messiah is the only person to condemn anyone,as His judgement is always correct.
Quizuck states - "Are you a believer in Messiah, do you know who He is, and what He is like as recorded in the Scriptures."
BUT the problem is you and your brother Chucknos don't believe in the Scriptures/Bible!!! Because you state -
Quizuck posts,
"Hi Parehtban, The bible or book, is not the Word of GOD Almighty, but rather the translations of man." end quote.
Chucknos posts,
"The notion that the Bible is the Word of God is a "slow-eating cancer" end quote.
"Despite the reverence for God which appears to attend the somber declaration that the Bible is "the infallible Word of God", that declaration sprouts from the envious heart of Satan, who would rather glory in the works of men - even the Bible, the written work of men - than to glory in the living power of God." end quotes.

I think you bring up a good point - 'Focus', where is our focus? This is one of the things I appreciate about Judaism; they don't focus on Heaven or the world to come, but rather what God expects of them now. I think this is a lesson Christians should learn, rather than focusing on getting to Heaven, getting blessings, getting rewards. Those things are G-D's business, not ours. We are to be about the business of the Kingdom here and now and trust G-D for the rest.
Anyone who is a Christian for what they can get from G-D is missing the mark. Did G-D create us so we could selfishly pursue blessings and rewards like dogs trained for a treat? Or are we created for relationship and oneness with G-D?
