GOD  REVEALS THINGS TO US


MAN CAN RESPOND TO THIS REVELATION  SEVERAL WAYS


WE ARE SAVED BY THE GRACE OF GOD


WE ARE SAVED BY FAITH IN JESUS CHRIST


WE ARE SAVED BY FAITH BUT WE ARE REWARDED ACCORDING TO OUR WORKS


FAITH WITHOUT WORKS IS DEAD


WHEN CHRIST COMES TO LIVE IN OUR HEARTS, WE ARE BORN AGAIN AND MADE RIGHTEOUS IN GOD'S SIGHT


WHEN WE BECOME A CHRISTIAN, WE ARE REDEEMED FROM THE DEVIL


WE ARE TRANSFERRED OUT OF THE DOMINION OF DARKNESS INTO THE KINGDOM OF THE GOD WHEN WE RECEIVE CHRIST INTO OUR HEART


CHRIST'S ONCE AND FOR ALL SACRIFICE PAYS FOR ALL OUR WRONG DOINGS (SINS)


CHRIST'S DEATH  REPLACES THE NEED FOR REPEATED ANIMAL SACRIFICES WHICH CAN NEVER TAKE AWAY SIN


WE CAN ONLY BECOME A CHRISTIAN IF WE LOVE GOD AND DECIDE NOT TO SIN ANY MORE

WE MUST REPENT OF OUR OLD WAYS


AFTER OUR CONVERSION, GOD BEGINS TO WORK ON OUR CHARACTER, HE TRANSFORMS US BIT BY BIT WHEN WE TURN TO HIM - THIS IS CALLED SANCTIFICATION

HE GIVES US THE STRENGTH NOT TO SIN


SOMETIMES AS CHRISTIANS, WE FAIL BECAUSE OF WEAKNESSES IN OUR PERSONALITY / CHARACTER THAT HAVE YET TO BE TRANSFORMED

BUT JESUS CAN WASH US CLEAN


WE CAN KNOW WHERE WE STAND WITH GOD


WE RECEIVE THE SPIRIT WHEN WE TRULY BELIEVE IN CHRIST AND WANT TO MAKE HIM OUR LORD AND SAVIOUR


RECEIVING THE SPIRIT IS THE SAME AS BAPTISM WITH THE SPIRIT


WE ARE BAPTIZED ONCE BUT WE ARE FILLED MANY TIMES


PRAISING GOD IS A SIGN OF SPIRIT BAPTISM


FRUIT AND GIFTS & SIGNS ALSO RESULT FROM SPIRIT INFILLING


NOT EVERYBODY WHO IS BAPTIZED IN THE HOLY SPIRIT WILL SPEAK IN TONGUES


IF YOU ARE BORN AGAIN, YOU HAVE BEEN BAPTIZED WITH THE SPIRIT


BORN AGAIN EQUALS BORN OF THE SPIRIT + BORN OF WATER


BAPTISM WITH THE SPIRIT MAKES US PART OF THE BODY


BAPTISM WITH THE SPIRIT BRINGS US INTO THE KINGDOM


BAPTISM WITH THE SPIRIT IS NOW CLOSELY LINKED WITH SALVATION


BAPTISM IS THE SYMBOL OF THE NEW COVENANT


CIRCUMCISION IS THE SYMBOL OF THE OLD COVENANT


CIRCUMCISION BY THE SPIRIT IS ANALOGOUS TO BAPTISM BY THE SPIRIT


THE JEWS BECAME UNCIRCUMCISED IN HEART BECAUSE THEY COULD NOT KEEP THE LAW


BAPTISM, LIKE CIRCUMCISION, HAS AN INWARD AND AN OUTWARD ASPECT


FOR THE GENTILE, BAPTISM IN THE HOLY SPIRIT AND FIRE ARE  INWARD CHANGES THAT TAKE PLACE AT CONVERSION

(FOR THE JEWS WHO ARE TRULY CIRCUMCISED IN SPIRIT, BAPTISM IS A POST CONVERSION EVENT)


BAPTISM IN WATER IS THE OUTWARD SIGN WHICH SYMBOLIZES CONVERSION


CIRCUMCISION BY THE SPIRIT AND BAPTISM BY THE SPIRIT BOTH RESULT IN REGENERATION


THE JEWISH DISCIPLES NEED TO BE BAPTIZED IN THE NAME OF JESUS - JOHN'S BAPTISM WAS INSUFFICIENT


GENTILE BELIEVERS DO NOT NEED TO BE CIRCUMCISED IN THE FLESH


JEWS AND GENTILES SHOULD BE BAPTIZED BY EMERSION WHEN THEY BELIEVE


CHILDREN OF BELIEVERS ARE COVERED BY THEIR BELIEVING PARENTS

 IF BAPTIZED AS INFANTS - THEY MUST CONTINUE IN THE  FAITH AS ADULTS OR THEY WILL NOT BE SAVED


WE BECOME A CHILD OF ABRAHAM AND ARE CIRCUMCISED IN HEART BY CHRIST WHEN WE BECOME A CHRISTIAN


JESUS IS THE LIGHT OF THE WORLD


IDOLATRY MEANS TO LOVE SOMETHING OR SOMEBODY MORE THAN GOD- THIS IS SPIRITUAL PROSTITUTION


WE HAVE FREEDOM IN CHRIST


JESUS IS THE BREAD OF LIFE


THE SPIRIT SPEAKS TO US DIRECTLY THROUGH OUR OUR OWN SPIRIT (CONSCIENCE)


ANGELS ARE MINISTERING SPIRITS THAT BRING WORDS OF LIFE


DEMONS ARE DECEIVING SPIRITS THAT TRY TO ENSLAVE US WITH THEIR LIES


GOD GIVES OUR LIVES MEANING AND PURPOSE


SHOULD WE CALL GOD BY HIS OLD TESTAMENT NAME - JEHOVAH?


MAN HAS THREE PARTS : BODY SOUL AND SPIRIT


THE HEART IS THE DWELLING PLACE OF THE SPIRIT


MAN IS A TRINITY TOO.  HE WAS MADE IN THE IMAGE OF GOD


THERE IS ONE BODY OF CHRIST (THE CHURCH) WHICH HAS MANY PARTS


JESUS IS COMING AGAIN SOON


WE MUST STAND FIRM UNTIL THE END


THERE WILL BE A TIME OF GREAT SUFFERING CALLED THE GREAT TRIBULATION PRIOR TO CHRIST'S RETURN


CHRIST COMES AT THE LAST TRUMPET TO REDEEM THE CHURCH AND DEFEAT THE ANTICHRIST - THIS IS THE END OF THE GREAT TRIBULATION AND THE END OF THIS AGE


ALL BELIEVERS (DEAD/ALIVE/PAST/PRESENT) WILL REIGN WITH CHRIST  IN HEAVEN FOR 1000 YEARS AFTER HIS RETURN


DURING THIS TIME THE BELIEVERS WILL BE REWARDED FOR THE THINGS THAT THEY HAVE DONE IN THE BODY

SOME WILL REIGN OVER ONE CITY / OTHERS WILL REIGN OVER FIVE CITIES


AFTER THE CHURCH HAS BEEN REDEEMED FROM THE EARTH, THE NATIONS WILL BE DIVIDED INTO THE SHEEP WHO WERE KIND TO GODS PEOPLE DURING THE GREAT TRIBULATION AND THE GOATS WHO WERE CRUEL TO GOD'S PEOPLE


THE GOATS WILL BE SENT TO EVERLASTING PUNISHMENT AND THE SHEEP WILL RECEIVE THE REWARD THAT HAS BEEN PREPARED FOR THEM: TO LIVE AS THE NATIONS ON EARTH DURING THE MILLENNIUM AND IN ETERNITY


 

(HERE, THE NATIONS ARE THE PEOPLE OF THE WORLD WHO DO NOT RECEIVE THE GOSPEL) 


THE DEAD OUTSIDE OF CHRIST WILL NOT BE RAISED FOR JUDGMENT UNTIL AFTER THE MILLENNIUM


DURING THE MILLENNIUM, THE BELIEVERS (WHO WILL ALL BE WITH CHRIST IN HEAVEN) WILL REIGN OVER THE PURIFIED NATIONS ON EARTH


AFTER THE MILLENNIUM, THE BELIEVERS WILL DESCEND FROM HEAVEN AS THE NEW JERUSALEM AND GOD WILL LIVE WITH THEM ON THE NEW EARTH FOREVER


THERE ARE ONLY THREE PLACES YOU CAN BE IN ETERNITY: THE LAKE OF FIRE (WICKED UNBELIEVERS),  THE NATIONS (GOOD UNBELIEVERS)  OR THE NEW JERUSALEM (ALL BELIEVERS)


OLD AND NEW TESTAMENT BELIEVERS - AS CHILDREN OF ABRAHAM - GET THE SAME INHERITANCE AND ARE CLEARLY BETTER OFF THAN THE NATIONS WHO STILL NEED HEALING


WHAT HAPPENS TO THE DESCENDENTS OF ISHMAEL?  WILL THEY GET A DIFFERENT INHERITANCE?


WE ARE IN THE END TIMES NOW


ARE YOU READY TO STAND BEFORE CHRIST?
