The Truth

                 "Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you are like whitewashed tombs which indeed appear beautiful outwardly, but inside are full of dead [men's] bones and all uncleanness.” (Matthew 23:27) "For I say to you, that unless your righteousness exceeds [the righteousness] of the scribes and Pharisees, you will by no means enter the kingdom of heaven.” (Matthew 5:20) Jesus said, "If you love Me, keep My commandments.” John 14:15. The Christian Pharisees say there are no commandments to keep because Jesus had died on the cross. Jesus said, "For assuredly, I say to you, till heaven and earth pass away, one jot or one tittle will by no means pass from the law till all is fulfilled.” Matthew 5:18. In other words Jesus said till heaven and earth pass away His words or commandments will not change unless Jesus says otherwise. In John 14:21 Jesus said, "He who has My commandments and keeps them,...

Did Jesus fulfill the Law? Did Jesus fulfill the Torah law? What is the Torah law? The Torah law is contained in the first five books of the Bible Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers, and Deuteronomy. Yes, Jesus fulfilled the Torah law, known also as the Moses law when He was on earth. Does the Torah law also apply to Christians under the New Covenant? Well, it all depends on where Christians are going. If we want to live forever with Jesus in heaven then we are also subject to the Torah law. If we want to live somewhere else, we can do whatever we want to do. The Torah law, as I see it, is permanent. No revision is allowed unless Jesus says so. No revision is allowed unless Jesus said so. Jesus said, "Do not think that I came to destroy the Law or the Prophets. I did not come to destroy but to fulfill. "For assuredly, I say to you, till heaven and earth pass away, one jot or one tittle will by no means pass from the law till all is fulfilled.” Matthew 5:17-18. Jesus gives no...

  Apa itu Kristen Konteks? Definisi saya tentang orang Kristen Konteks adalah orang yang selalu berusaha menemukan cara untuk menghindari menjalankan perintah  Hukum Allah. Ini tidak sama dengan definisi sarjana Alkitab tentang apa itu Kristen kontekstual. Misalnya, Anda dapat bertanya kepada seorang Kristen Konteks di mana pun di dunia mengapa dia tidak melakukan hal-hal tertentu yang Alkitab minta dia lakukan, dan jawaban pertama yang keluar dari mulutnya adalah Anda harus melihat "konteksnya". Jika, misalnya, Yesus berkata kepada orang kaya bahwa dia tidak boleh mencuri, dan orang yang Anda ajak bicara itu miskin, dan tidak kaya, dia mungkin berpendapat bahwa “konteksnya” berbeda. Dia miskin, dan orang yang berbicara dengan Yesus itu kaya. Bisakah orang miskin mencuri? Apakah orang miskin ini boleh mencuri karena “konteksnya” berbeda? Menurut orang miskin itu “konteksnya” berbeda dan dia boleh mencuri. Dia miskin, dan orang yang berbicara dengan Yesus itu kaya. Orang Krist...

  In Matthew 5:48 Jesus said, "Therefore you shall be perfect, just as your Father in heaven is perfect.” Perfection, therefore, is not a choice. It is a mandatory requirement. Can we be perfect? Yes, we can. And why does Jesus want us to be perfect? The reason why Jesus wants us to be perfect is because the standard of heaven is perfection . How can we be perfect? What do we have to do to be perfect? I believe that the only way that we can be perfect is by keeping His Law. The only way that we can be perfect is by doing His law. The only way that we can be perfect is by memorizing His Law. The only way that we can be perfect is by living what He wants us to do. That, Brothers and Sisters, is the only way that we can be perfect. Living what He wants us to do is the standard of perfection. And that is also the only way that we can be saved - do His will, and not do our will. In John 14:15 Jesus said, "If you love Me, keep My commandments.” Keeping His commandments is doing ...

Jesus said, “If you love me keep my commandments .”John 14:15 "Heaven and earth will pass away, but My words will by no means pass away.” Matthew 24:35 In Matthew 5:19 Jesus said, "Whoever therefore breaks one of the least of these commandments, and teaches men so, shall be called least in the kingdom of heaven; but whoever does and teaches [them], he shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven. Many Christians believe that His commandments expired when Jesus died on the cross. That was the reason, they say, why they no longer observe or keep His commandments. But Jesus said, "Heaven and earth will pass away, but My words will by no means pass away.” Matthew 24:35. In other words, His words are permanent . His commandments do not change from day to day. No one has His permission to ignore or change His laws - none! "Do not think that I came to destroy the Law or the Prophets. I did not come to destroy but to fulfill. "For assuredly, I say to you, till heaven...

My Father in heaven said, "Not everyone who says to Me, `Lord, Lord,' shall enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father in heaven. Many will say to Me on that day, `Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in Your name, cast out demons in Your name, and done many wonders in Your name?' And then I will declare to them, `I never knew you; depart from Me, you who practice lawlessness!'" Matthew 7:21-23. I have quoted these texts many times in my postings, and you have surely read or heard about these texts when you read the Bible or sit in church. But do we understand what Jesus is trying to tell us in Matthew 7:21-23? I woke up this morning and a voice is asking me this same question, “Do I understand what Jesus is trying to tell me in Matthew 7:21-23”. “Many will say to Me in that day, `Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in Your name, cast out demons in Your name, and done many wonders in Your name?' And then I will declare to them, `I never kn...
