WHO HACKED THE BIBLE?
According to the Triad of Salvation theory, salvation stands on three legs - work, grace, and partnership. Work is our part, grace is God’s part, and partnership or salvation is a shared responsibility between God and us.
In Luke 10:25-37 a lawyer asked Jesus, "Teacher, what shall I do to inherit eternal life?" Jesus said to him, "What is written in the law? What is your reading [of it]?" So he answered and said, "`You shall love the LORD your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your strength, and with all your mind,' and `your neighbor as yourself.'"
And Jesus answered to him, "Go and do likewise." In short, Jesus told him to do his job! Go and work.
We know that “love the LORD your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your strength, and with all your mind,' and `your neighbor as yourself.’” is WORK and not grace. Jesus says nothing about grace in Luke 10:25-37! However, as we see now two thousand years later most Christians believe that we get eternal life by grace, and not work. Even the SDAs believe the same - grace.
Has our Bible been hacked? If so, who hacked our Bible? Why does any Christian want to hack the Bible? Do we no longer believe in Jesus? If we say we do believe in Jesus, why don’t we follow Him? If we don’t believe Him anymore, why don’t we invent a new god? And worship that new god. There is no law in the U.S. Constitution that prohibits anyone from worshiping any god.
We cannot say that the Apostle Paul says so and so we follow him blindly. Why? Because we know that he is wrong, what he says contradicts the words of Jesus. Paul is not Jesus and he holds no key to the Kingdom of God.
Why do we have to lie to our members and teach them “salvation by grace” and not “salvation by work”? Is it because “grace” is easier to swallow than “work”? Or, is it because “grace” generates much more income for the church than “work”? Or, is it because “grace” converts more people to Christianity easier, and “work” does not? Why are our pastors willing to go that low for the sake of increased membership and plenty of cash? Costco and Sam’s Club are doing well in business and their parking lot is full of cars each day. And neither Jesus nor eternal life is one of the products that they sell. Should we not perform better financially than both Costco and Sam's club?
Jesus said, "And you will be hated by all for My name's sake. But he who endures to the end will be saved.” Matthew 10:22
"Blessed are you when they revile and persecute you, and say all kinds of evil against you falsely for My sake.” Matthew 5:11
“For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine, but according to their own desires, [because] they have itching ears, they will heap up for themselves teachers; and they will turn [their] ears away from the truth, and be turned aside to fables.” 2 Timothy 4:3-4
The Apostle Paul says that there will come a time when people will no longer endure listening to sound doctrine but will listen according to their own desires. They will gather for themselves teachers that can make their ears happy, and turn aside to fables or fantasy. And the time is here and now!
Let us not be fooled by "grace" because it is not Jesus' teaching for us to have eternal life. Luke 10:25-37. In fact, we know that starting from Adam and Eve, Satan (Lucifer) and billions of his angels, and billions of humans who perished during the big flood in the time of Noah, all of this could happen because they could not show their good works that God could accept. Noah found grace in the eyes of the Lord.
"When the Lord saw that the wickedness of man was great on the earth and that every thought of his heart was only evil always, the Lord regretted that He had made man on the earth, and it grieved Him. The LORD said, "I will wipe out the humans whom I have created from the face of the earth, both humans and animals and creeping things and birds of the air, for I am sorry that I made them." But Noah found grace in his eyes" Genesis 6:5-8. Do you know why Noah found grace in the eyes of the Lord? I believe it must be because of his good works that pleased Him, and not because of his appearance or how he was groomed! Thank you, Father!
Jesus warned us thousands of years ago that the world will hate us and persecute us because of the true message about Jesus that we bring to the world. The message is found in Luke 10:25-37.
The world, however, will love us if the message that we give to the world is Paul’s message, “For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; [it is] the gift of God, not of works, lest anyone should boast.” Ephesians 2:8-9. This kind of message will tickle our itching ears. 2 Timothy 4:3-4
We inherited salvation by faith that was passed on to us by a Catholic monk, Martin Luther, and not by Jesus. Jesus said that salvation by work is what He expects from us. See Luke 10:25-37. And what is the work? Jesus said, "If you love Me, keep My commandments." John 14:15. This is the beginning and end of all things - His Commandments!
