We are in the end of the "time of the Gentiles".
This "TIME" started when Christ was raised on the Cross, and will end when the Great Trib starts.
See that 'time period", ????? that has existed for over 2000 yrs? That is the "time of the Gentiles'. Its a "season" or a "dispensation" when God is bringing into His spiritual family the non-Jew.
OR as John 3:16-17 teach...>"the world"., as Christ was lifted up on the Cross for "ALL who will come'......."ALL" is the world....the entire world full of people..
So, this is the "time of the GENTILES"........not the time of the jew........And then this time period ends.......and God will again deal with the JEW specifically and the World at large directly in a fierce way... 2nd Thessalonians 1:8-9 ..and that is the '"Great Tribulation".
See it?
That is not rocket science. As "bible" revelation isn't hard to understand, what is problematic is the believing part that is based on spiritual discernment......as all that God does, you can't SEE IT, yet, its always happening...
So, you have to spiritually discern God's ways, and God's dealings. = "He that is spiritual discerneth all things'...>"the word of God is Spiritually discerned" = ONLY
The natural mind, (analytical and logical "flesh") cannot understand the things of God as they are Spiritually Discerned, not "figured out" by reading.
In Romans 1, God says that humans have no excuse...when they say..>"well i'll believe it when i see it"....as God says...>"LOOK AROUND, see the stars, the Sun, the planets, the forests, the sea's, the blue sky, ...notice the GRAVITY...notice that THE SUN is just far enough away to keep you warm, and not so close as to burn you like TOAST".
God says.........."SEE ALL THAT and MORE>.........its everywhere if you LOOK BECAUSE I CREATED ALL THAT........and .its EASILY SEEN as you can't keep from seeing my CREATION>........so you have no excuse when you try to lie and say.......>"we will believe it when we see it".......
Now, in these end times of the Gentiles, there is a famine of : "the preaching of the Cross". "The Gospel of the Grace of God". Paul's Doctrine......or as Paul refers to it 3x as ="my Gospel". And it is, as Jesus revealed it to Paul. Which explains why Paul wrote most of the New Testament, did more for Christ then any other person who has ever lived, and also gave us "church doctrine".
You can barely hear most of this truth preached correctly anymore.....as all you hear in church and on Forums is.. >"law"... commandments".. >>"you must do this".."water saves if you are baptized".
Everywhere you go, if you are believer, you will not hear the Gospel of GRACE......you will only hear the screeching of the self saver, ... the spiritual pretender who is teaching you that you must do this and keep that, and be good enough......and if you will keep trying hard enough, then God just might let you in, when you die.
See all that? That is LEGALISM...>Legalism, is ..'i dont trust in Christ, i just pretend i do..... What i trust in is my SELF EFFORT to get into heaven, and here is my list of do's and dont do's that im doing or not doing to try to SAVE MYSELF" That is what i "PREACH". This False Gospel. Galatians 1:8
See that? That is not faith in Christ ....that is faith in Self.....That is the person up on the Cross, as a SELF Saver, and Jesus is not up there in that case. He's been removed by their SELF RIGHTEOUSNESS.
So, when a person is ALL THAT....then they are not doing what this THREAD says to do......they have not brought their imaginations and their deceived theology under control....They do not have REAL FAITH.
Paul says to prove yourself that you be in real faith.
Jude says to contend for the Real Faith.
These self savers, these self righteous.... do not live HERE in their FAITH.. = Hebrews 13:9
They do not have FAITH in CHRIST ALONE to get them to heaven........
Here is the thing........... Nearly everyone will agree that Christ saves them, but only those who have brought their faithless thoughts and theologically deceived imaginations into submission to Christ, will teach this...."Christ KEEPS me saved".
See that?.......THAT is real faith.....THAT is faith in Christ.......its not just .....>"yeah i know that Christ saves.....ITS = i KNOW THAT CHRIST KEEPS ME SAVED".
Keeps me saved
Keeps me saved
Keeps me saved.
Reader, do you believe that Jesus keeps you saved, or do you want to argue that you must "do this and dont do that", so that you try to keep yourself saved?
ahhhhhh............
See that real Faith in CHRIST ??????, very few FEW have it., as most do not believe that Christ keeps them saved, and that is because their faith is broken, and that is why their preaching, teaching, is all about WORKS and SELF EFFORT.....in place of Real Faith in Christ ALONE.
