In Christ

Who is he who overcomes the world, but he who believes that Jesus is the Son of God?  1 John 5:5 (NKJV)

In the precious and beautiful name of Messiah Yeshua “Jesus,” greetings.

“I know your works, your labor, your patience, and that you cannot bear those who are evil. And you have tested those who say they are apostles and are not, and have found them liars; and you have persevered and have patience, and have labored for My name’s sake and have not become weary. Nevertheless I have this against you, that you have left your first love.” Revelation 2:2-4 (NKJV)

Let me emphasize the parts of the verses that say, Jesus has this “against” those that “have labored for” Jesus’ “names sake,” they “left” their “first love.”

Nothing describes this better today than the one confessing Jesus is the Son of God, saved according to the [Scriptures], and seeks God’s will for their life, but continues to support the Anthanasian Creed.

The Anthanasian Creeds false method of salvation runs completely counter to the gospel of Jesus Christ.  The person confessing Jesus is the Son of God, the Lord and the Savior of their life, saved according to the [Scriptures], and rejecting the Anthanasian Creed altogether, is saved.

“For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.”  John 3:16 (NKJV)

The woman said to Him, “I know that Messiah is coming” (who is also called Christ). “When He comes, He will tell us all things.” Jesus said to her, “I who speak to you am He.” John 4:25-26 (NKJV)

Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new.  2 Corinthians 5:17 (NKJV)

“Whoever believes in Him” the moment one chooses to believe in Messiah Yeshua “Jesus,” they’re “in Christ.”  “I who speak to you am He” Jesus is the Christ, “Messiah.”

If the follower of the Anthanasian Creed would take the time to see that it’s false, they’d see that there’s no reason to follow it.  What can the Anthanasian Creed do for the one who is “in Christ,” or the one rejecting Jesus for that matter?  Absolutely nothing! 

God bless.
