A Memorable Moment

“That you may with one mind and with one mouth glorify the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.” Romans 15:6 (NKJV)

In the precious and beautiful name of the Faithful and True Witness, Messiah Yeshua “Jesus,” greetings.  See Revelation 3:14 (NKJV)

My story is one of redemption, a sinner saved by grace.

I know that no matter what a person has gone through, what they’ve said or done or are still doing for that matter, there’s a 50/50 chance of my having sought forgiveness for doing the exact same thing at one time or another.  Keeping my eyes on that which Jesus accomplished in the first century, which is to say having placed the eternal destiny of my soul in the [care] hands of no one else but Jesus, I look [forward] to the second coming of Messiah Yeshua “Jesus.”  To the total stranger, I introduce myself as a firm believer in Messiah Yeshua “Jesus.” 

Recently I was asked, “Do you believe there’s a heaven?”  My reply was, without any hesitation, “Yes!”  I continued the conversation, after a brief moment of silence, saying, “I can’t believe you asked me that question,” knowing that we’re no strangers to one another. 

I’m not going to go into great detail concerning the conversation, because it’s a delicate situation.  I will say this: God works in mysterious ways.

To the one that said “I love you and I want you to go to heaven” to me almost thirty years ago, thank you so much!  I pray all is well.

You will find this on the thank you page of both my books.  It was a memorable moment in my life.  Back to today, and knowing this individual that asked me “Do you believe there’s a heaven” has visited this blog, I’m going to return the favor.

To the one that said to me “Do you believe there’s a heaven?”  I love you and I want you to go to heaven.

But at midnight Paul and Silas were praying and singing hymns to God, and the prisoners were listening to them. Suddenly there was a great earthquake, so that the foundation of the prison were shaken; and immediately all the doors were opened and everyone’s chains were loosed.

And the keeper of the prison, awaking from sleep and seeing the prison doors open, supposing the prisoners had fled, drew his sword and was about to kill himself. But Paul called with a loud voice, saying, “Do yourself no harm, for we are all here.”

Then he called for a light, ran in, and fell down trembling before Paul and Silas. And he brought them out and said, “Sirs, what must I do to be saved?”

So they said, “Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and you will be saved, you and your household.” Acts 16:25-31 (NKJV)

It is that simple.  “Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and you will be saved.”

God bless.

Words

Grace, mercy, and truth will be with you from God the Father and from the Lord Jesus Christ, the Son of the Father, in truth and love. 2 John 3 (NKJV)

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

While listening to the local “Christian” radio station I heard, “If words are not worth fighting for, I don’t know what is.”  The speaker on the radio is a follower of the Anthanasian Creed.

The words that make up the Anthanasian Creed come out on the wrong end of the truth, each and every time.  If the words themselves support the Anthanasian Creed in any way, shape or form, they are not worth fighting for.  Now the words you find in [Scripture] that is another story.  If you keep your eyes on that which Jesus accomplished in the first century, which is to say [Scripture] alone, those words are worth defending.

God bless.

Saved According to The Scriptures

He who does not love does not know God, for God is love. In this the love of God was manifested towards us, that God has sent His only begotten Son into the world, that we might live through Him. In this is love, not that we loved God, but that He loved us and sent His Son to be the propitiation for our sins. Beloved, if God so loved us, we also ought to love one another. 1 John 4:8-11 (NKJV)

In the name of Him who God sent to be the propitiation for our sins, Messiah Yeshua “Jesus,” greetings.

Whoever confesses that Jesus is the Son of God, God abides in him, and he in God.  1 John 4:15 (NKJV)

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

While listening to the local “Christian” radio station I heard, “The home is the best place for a child to learn about God.”  The speaker on the radio is a follower of the Anthanasian Creed.  As such they would likely say that the one “who believes” and “confesses that Jesus is the Son of God” is not saved, if they refuse to recognize the Anthanasian Creed as sound doctrine.

As one who loves Jesus, and who’s not ashamed to tell others about Him, I say whether in the home, at the local coffee shop or at the local church, the [Bible] should be taught as being more than sufficient enough as is.  If the Anthanasian Creed, a false doctrine, is taught, it doesn’t matter where one learns of it.

“Therefore I say to you, every sin and blasphemy will be forgiven men, but the blasphemy against the Spirit will not be forgiven men. Anyone who speaks a word against the Son of Man, it will be forgiven him; but whoever speaks against the Holy Spirit, it will not be forgiven him, either in this age or in the age to come.” Matthew 12:31-32 (NKJV)

Would you say the person that refuses to recognize the Anthanasian Creed as sound doctrine is guilty of “blasphemy against the” “Holy Spirit”?  I wouldn’t give it a second thought, if I were you.  The Anthanasian Creed [clearly] adds onto that which Jesus accomplished in the first century.

Could the follower of the Anthanasian Creed be saved?  Yes, if they accepted what Jesus accomplished in the first century they are saved according to the [Scriptures].

Whoever “speaks a word against the Son of Man, it will be forgiven him,” if they’re saved according to the [Scriptures].

Don’t mix, mingle or blend the Anthanasian Creed with God’s plan of salvation that which has been clearly laid out for us in the [Bible].  The Anthanasian Creed has [absolutely] nothing to do with God’s plan of salvation, “either in this age or in the age to come.”

God bless.

Start Your Day

“Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places in Christ.” Ephesians 1:3 (NKJV)

In the name of Him who God sent to be the propitiation for our sins, Messiah Yeshua “Jesus,” greetings.  See 1 John 4:8-11 (NKJV)

While listening to the local “Christian” radio station I heard, “I thought I would start today going to the scriptures,” and I whole heartedly support that idea.  The speaker on the radio is a follower of the Anthanasian Creed.  Back in 325-AD, someone thought that they were doing the right thing by, allowing the Anthanasian Creed to become doctrine of the Catholic Church.

If you were to start your day by not just thinking about God’s plan of salvation but actually reading about it for yourself, you’d be better off.  You’d also find the Anthanasian Creed is keeping you from trusting the [Bible] to be more than sufficient enough as is.         

God bless.

It's Never Okay to Make False Accusations

“Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who according to His abundant mercy has begotten us again to a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead.” 1 Peter 1:3 (NKJV)

In the name of Him who gave Himself a ransom for all, Messiah Yeshua “Jesus,” greetings. See 1 Timothy 2:6 (NKJV)

While listening to the local “Christian” radio station I heard a follower of the Anthanasian Creed say, “What do you know about Christ?”

Now the chief priests, the elders, and all the council sought false testimony against Jesus to put Him to death, but found none. Even though many false witnesses came forward, they found none. But at last two false witnesses came forward and said, “This fellow said, ‘I am able to destroy the temple of God and to rebuild it in three days.’ ” And the high priest arose and said to Him, “Do You answer nothing? What is it these men testify against You?” But Jesus kept silent. And the high priest answered and said to Him, “I put You under oath by the living God: tell us if You are the Christ, the Son of God!” Jesus said to him, “It is as you said. Nevertheless, I say to you, hereafter you will see the Son of Man sitting at the right hand of the Power, and coming on the clouds of heaven.” Then the high priest tore his clothes, saying, “He has spoken blasphemy! What further need do we have of witnesses? Look, now you have heard His blasphemy! What do you think?” They answered and said, “He is deserving of death.”  Matthew 26:59-66 (NKJV)

Jesus answered and said to them, “Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up.” Then the Jews said, “It has taken forty-six years to build this temple, and You will raise it up in three days?” But He was speaking of the temple of His body. Therefore, when He had risen from the dead, His disciples remembered that He had said this to them; and they believed the Scripture and the word which Jesus had said.” John 2:19-22 (NKJV)

Jesus said “Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up.”  

“Two false witnesses said” that Jesus said, “I am able to destroy the temple of God and to rebuild it in three days.” 

What we have is “two false witnesses,” twisting Jesus’ words.

“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)

Jesus’ “disciples remembered that He had said this to them; and they believed the Scripture and the word which Jesus had said.” 

It is [safe] to say that Jesus is “the Christ, the Son of God,” that “whoever believes in” Jesus, according to the [Scriptures], will be saved.  We can trust God’s plan of salvation, which has been [clearly] laid out for us in the [Bible].

The follower of the Anthanasian Creed teaches that unless one believes the doctrine of the trinity, one cannot be saved.  Others will say the [Biblical] account of Jesus being nailed to a cross isn’t true because Jesus was a prophet, and prophets would not have been treated this way in the first century.  Keep in mind both of these [false] teachings were birthed well after the events leading up to and including, the last entry of the New Testament.

And about the ninth hour Jesus cried out with a loud voice, saying, “Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani?” that is, “My God, My God, why have You forsaken Me?” Matthew 27:46 (NKJV)

Then one of the criminals who were hanged blasphemed Him, saying, “If You are the Christ, save Yourself and us.” But the other, answering, rebuked him, saying, “Do you not even fear God, seeing you are under the same condemnation?  And we indeed justly, for we receive the due reward of our deeds; but this Man has done nothing wrong.” Then he said to Jesus, “Lord, remember me when You come into Your kingdom.” And Jesus said to him, “Assuredly, I say to you, today you shall be with Me in Paradise.” Luke 23:39-43 (NKJV)

While nailed to the cross “Jesus cried out with a loud voice, saying, My God, My God, why have You forsaken Me?”  “Jesus said to” one of the criminals, “Assuredly, I say to you, today you shall be with Me in Paradise.”  Having to believe the doctrine of the trinity to be saved, has [absolutely] nothing to do with “today you shall be with Me in Paradise,” being [forever] with Jesus.

It’s never okay to make false accusations against anyone, let alone the [Biblical] Jesus.

“What do you know about Christ?”

God bless.

Whatever Things Are True

Grace, mercy, and truth will be with you from God the Father and from the Lord Jesus Christ, the Son of the Father, in truth and love. 2 John 3 (NKJV)

In the only name given among men by which we must be saved, Messiah Yeshua “Jesus,” greetings.  See Acts 4:12 (NKJV)

Finally, brethren, whatever things are true, whatever things are noble, whatever things are just, whatever things are pure, whatever things are lovely, whatever things are of good report, if there is any virtue and if there is anything praiseworthy—meditate on these things. Philippians 4:8 (NKJV)

“Whatever things are true, whatever things are just—meditate on these things,” doesn’t include the Anthanasian Creed.  Where did the Anthanasian Creed come from?  Ultimately, man.  Taking it one step further the mere mentioning of Jesus’ name with anything linked [directly] to the Anthanasian Creeds [false] “method of salvation,” is heresy.

Would you say the person confessing Jesus is the Son of God, the Lord and the Savior of their life, saved according to the [Scriptures], and rejects the Anthanasian Creed altogether, is saved?

I’ve sent this question to many over a period of three years.  If I gave you the names of those that I have sent it to, you’d recognize the majority of them.  To date the only [direct] answer to it I’ve received was “Yes, and no,” which really isn’t an answer at all.

Even though I have yet to receive a direct “yes” or “no” answer to the question, I know the [only] correct answer to it is, the person is saved.  I’m [very] comfortable with asking other followers of the Anthanasian Creed the same question, face to face.  I don’t need them to actually answer the question, to know it causes them to second guess what they’ve been [falsely] led to believe.

My role is to tell it like it is, which is to say according to the [Scriptures].  Philippians 4:8, keeps my eyes on that which Jesus accomplished in the first century.

God bless.

The Follower of The Anthanasian Creed

“Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who according to His abundant mercy has begotten us again to a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead.” 1 Peter 1:3 (NKJV)

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

First and foremost, followers of the Anthanasian Creed can [only] be traced back to 325-AD when the Anthanasian Creed became doctrine of the Catholic Church.  They have been trusting what has been handed down to them by other followers ever since.

They point people to the cross, but go beyond the [Bible].  Behind their teaching is the unsupported theory that unless one believes the Anthanasian Creed, and thus the doctrine of the trinity, one cannot be saved.

They fail to see the significance of the words “the Son is God” not being in the [Bible].  Proving that if it wasn’t for the writings of those not mentioned in the [Bible], the Anthanasian Creed wouldn’t have made its way into the twenty first century. 

When followers of the Anthanasian Creed claim they are preaching the gospel of Jesus Christ in truth, don’t trust their word, and instead rely on God’s word.  Nothing has caused more people to turn from [Biblical] truths to false teachings, than the Anthanasian Creed.

Could the follower of the Anthanasian Creed be saved?  Yes, if they accepted what Jesus accomplished in the first century they are saved according to the [Scriptures].  But are they misleading people with their teaching?  Yes.

God bless.

You Can't Blame The Bible

“That you may with one mind and with one mouth glorify the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.” Romans 15:6 (NKJV)

In the precious and beautiful name of the Faithful and True Witness, Messiah Yeshua “Jesus,” greetings.  See Revelation 3:14 (NKJV)

I heard it from a follower of the Anthanasian Creed that if you get Jesus wrong, then you’re not saved.  Nothing says the Anthanasian Creeds way is better than God’s plan of salvation, than the Anthanasian Creed itself.  

I say if you get the Anthanasian Creed wrong, by believing it is sound doctrine, you’ll say people are not saved when nothing could be further from the truth.  The Anthanasian Creed is the root [source] of many false teachings concerning the [Biblical] Jesus who is the Son of God.  It has absolutely nothing to do with the salvation of one’s soul.

Would you say 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?

As one who loves Jesus, and who’s not ashamed to tell others about Him, I say the person is saved.  If you get Jesus wrong, you can’t blame the [Bible].  The person rejecting what Jesus accomplished in the first century, which is available for all to see in the [Bible], is not saved.

Is It Difficult To Unlearn?

Grace, mercy, and truth will be with you from God the Father and from the Lord Jesus Christ, the Son of the Father, in truth and love. 2 John 3 (NKJV)

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

Now it came to pass, as He was praying in a certain place, when He ceased, that one of His disciples said to Him, “Lord, teach us to pray, as John also taught his disciples.” So He said to them, “When you pray say: Our Father in heaven, hallowed be Your name. Your kingdom come. Your will be done on earth as it is in heaven. Give us day by day our daily bread. And forgive us our sins, for we also forgive everyone who is indebted to us. And do not lead us into temptation, but deliver us from the evil one.”  Luke 11:1-4 (NKJV)

I have heard that it’s difficult to unlearn things.  Actually, I heard it from a follower of the Anthanasian Creed.  I wonder how hard it would be to unlearn the Anthanasian Creed for a follower of it.  I don’t know what caused this individual to say this but, “Your kingdom come. Your will be done on earth as it is in heaven,” was my first thought after hearing it.  This generated in me so many thoughts.

Now when all things are made subject to Him, then the Son Himself will also be subject to Him who put all things under Him, that God may be all in all.  1 Corinthians 15:28 (NKJV)

“And has made us kings and priests to His God and Father, to Him be glory and dominion forever and ever. Amen.” Revelation 1:6 (NKJV)

Jesus said to her, “Do not cling to Me, for I have not yet ascended to My Father; but go to My brethren and say to them, ‘I am ascending to My Father and your Father, and to My God and your God.’” John 20:17 (NKJV)

Here are a few of them.

“The Son Himself,” Jesus, “will also be subject to” God. 

Jesus “has made” those that believe in Him, “kings and priests to His God and Father.”

Those that will “be subject to” God, Jesus’ “brethren” and “the Son Himself” Jesus, have the same God and Father.  “I am ascending to My Father and your Father, and to My God and your God.”

The question becomes, when did it become so easy to not see Jesus as taking our place on the cross, because the Anthanasian Creed [clearly] says what Jesus accomplished in the first century isn’t enough?  Do you confess Jesus is the Son of God, saved according to the [Scriptures], and see Jesus as dying for your sins on the cross?  If so, you are saved.  One can’t be more saved, than when they [first] believed in Messiah Yeshua “Jesus,” according to the [Scriptures], yet according to the Anthanasian Creed no one is saved unless they believe the Anthanasian Creed.  As it is on earth it better be in heaven, is the Anthanasian Creed in a nutshell.

Know the word of God especially concerning your salvation, and don’t second guess what Jesus accomplished in the first century.  If you are open to anything that comes along, things like the Anthanasian Creed, will lead you astray.

How difficult would it be to unlearn things like the Anthanasian Creed, or other false doctrines?  You’ll find it’s easier to identify and then reject them, than it is to [defend] keep them up and running.  You must keep your eyes on that which Jesus accomplished in the first century.

People can say/believe whatever they like but if they’re not willing to confess that Jesus is the Son of God, saved according to the [Scriptures], don’t be fooled by what they have to offer.  As it will be with the Anthanasian Creed, any attempt to add to or subtract from that which Jesus accomplished in the first century will fail.  This from someone who unlearned the Anthanasian Creed.  It’s a beautiful thing.

The word of God enduring forever.

God bless.

The Means by Which One Comes to The Father

“Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who according to His abundant mercy has begotten us again to a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead.” 1 Peter 1:3 (NKJV)

In the name of Him who was given authority over all flesh, Messiah Yeshua “Jesus,” greetings. See John 17:2 (NKJV)

Picture yourself as one of many sitting in a church, on a Sunday morning, and where the Anthanasian Creed is taught as sound doctrine.  With a copy of the Anthanasian Creed in one hand and a [Bible] in the other, a guest speaker walks up to and stands behind the podium.  To the right of the podium, a trash bucket.

After placing both the copy of the Anthanasian Creed and the [Bible] on the podium, the speaker then lifts the Anthanasian Creed up for all to see, saying, while crumbling the single piece of paper into a small ball, “This is what I think about the Anthanasian Creed.”  The speaker then throws the copy of the Anthanasian Creed into the trash bucket.

The speaker lifts the [Bible] up for all to see, saying, “This is the word of God and you won’t find in it, unless one believes the doctrine of the trinity one cannot be saved.”

At this point in the message would you begin to question whether or not the speaker should be there?

If throwing the single piece of paper in the trash bucket did not raise any red flags for you, then there’s a good chance you haven’t heard about the events that took place in 325-AD.  If what the speaker had to say about the [Bible] caused you to question the speaker’s beliefs, then you’re blind to the fact that if not for the Anthanasian Creed the doctrine of the trinity wouldn’t exist at all.

“So the Father is God, the Son is God, and the Holy Ghost is God. And yet they are not three Gods, but one God.”  - Anthanasian Creed.

“This is the catholic (Christian) faith; which except you believe faithfully and firmly, you cannot be saved.”  - Last sentence of the Anthanasian Creed.

I reject the Anthanasian Creed altogether but at the same time I can’t deny, followers of that creed can teach the [Scriptures] correctly.  The non-scriptural teachings begin the moment one attempts to link the Anthanasian Creeds “the Son is God” to the [Biblical] Jesus, who is the Son of God.  I can safely say the events that took place in 325-AD, specifically the Anthanasian Creed becoming doctrine of the Catholic Church, birthed “you cannot be saved” a false method of salvation which is replacement theology.

While listening to the local “Christian” radio station I heard a speaker talking about problems in churches and their answer was, “You want to straighten your church out, sound doctrine.”  The speaker on the radio is a follower of the Anthanasian Creed.

Jesus said to him, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me.” John 14:6 (NKJV) 

Referring to the speaker’s use of the words “straighten your church out,” I would say the speaker fails to recognize the problem here.  As a follower of the Anthanasian Creed the speaker is promoting a doctrine that is not sound.  John 14:6 is trustworthy.  For obvious reasons the Anthanasian Creed is not sound doctrine.  From the person that got saved just prior to them taking their last breath on earth, to the next one to believe in Jesus according to the [Scriptures], the Anthanasian Creed will never be the means by which “one comes to the Father.”

Who is it helping, when one says the Anthanasian Creed is sound doctrine?  It not only condemns to hell’s fire those that have chosen to reject it for themselves, it also condemns those that didn’t live to tell about it.

Don’t confuse the writings of those not mentioned in the [Bible] for [Biblical] truths, things like the Anthanasian Creed will surface if you do.    

God’s plan of salvation is available for all to see in the [Bible] and accepting it, and believing in Jesus according to the [Scriptures], is the beginning of one’s journey to the kingdom of God.  With that said I will not cease from exposing the Anthanasian Creed for what it is, false doctrine.

God bless.

Once Saved Always Saved

“We give thanks to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, praying always for you.” Colossians 1:3 (NKJV)

In the only name given among men by which we must be saved, Messiah Yeshua “Jesus,” greetings.  See Acts 4:12 (NKJV)

With the last entry of the New Testament occurring near the end of the first century, it is safe to say that the [Bible] doesn’t tell us to respect the Anthanasian Creed in any way, shape or form.  The Anthanasian Creeds having to believe [or else] false “method of salvation,” is [directly] linked to those not mentioned in the [Bible].  They should not be treated as defenders of [Biblical] truths.  Could they be saved?  Yes, if they accepted what Jesus accomplished in the first century they are saved according to the [Scriptures].  Unfortunately, sixteen hundred plus years of false teachings [directly] linked to the Anthanasian Creed, saying, unless one believes the doctrine of the trinity one cannot be saved, has fostered things about Jesus that just aren’t true.

One can say we should trust the word of God but if we’re clinging to the Anthanasian Creed, we’re not trusting the word of God.  In an attempt to have authority over the salvation of one’s soul, man had reduced the [Bible] to mere commentary.  This is the Anthanasian Creed in a nutshell.

Have you heard the phrase once saved always saved?  Well it’s true, but only if everything was done according to the [Scriptures].  The Anthanasian Creed says the salvation of one’s soul has absolutely nothing to do with [Biblical] truths.  Simply, the Anthanasian Creed [supersedes] God’s plan of salvation which has been clearly laid out for us in the [Bible].

Any attempt to build a bridge between God’s plan of salvation and the Anthanasian Creeds [false] “method of salvation,” will be blocked by [Biblical] truths.

Here’s the way I see things, in a world bent on silencing [Biblical] truths.  I respect people’s right to believe whatever they wish when it comes to their eternal destiny, but the [Bible] will have the final say.  This includes those that have chosen to believe the Anthanasian Creed.

Would you say 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?

I hope that you see that the person is saved.  To say the person is not saved, says the Anthanasian Creed [supersedes] God’s plan of salvation.  The [Bible] points us to that which Jesus the Son of God, accomplished in the first century.  The words “The Son is God” aren’t in the [Bible].  They wouldn’t exist at all, if not for the Anthanasian Creed.  Messiah Yeshua “Jesus,” is the Son of God.  Whoever confesses that Jesus is the Son of God, God abides in him, and he in God.  1 John 4:15 (NKJV)

The Anthanasian Creed shouldn’t have made its way into the twenty first century.  What do we [really] know about the Anthanasian Creed?  Simple research will tell you that it was birthed well after the last entry of the New Testament, and has no basis in the [Bible].  It adds onto that which Jesus accomplished in the first century.  The truth of the matter is, followers of the Anthanasian Creed have been trusting that which has been handed down to them by other followers.  They’ll talk about how it made its way into the twenty first century, but it’ll be based on the teachings of those that have chosen to believe it for themselves.  It’s a society of people that can only be traced back to 325-AD, when the Anthanasian Creed was birthed.  As with all of us today, not a single one of them has the authority to alter [Scripture].

It is your eternal destiny at stake here, and it is your choice.  Trust in the [Bible] and confess that Jesus is the Son of God and you will be saved.

God bless.

Choose Wisely

“Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places in Christ.” Ephesians 1:3 (NKJV)

In the name of Him who did not come to destroy but to fulfill, Messiah Yeshua “Jesus,” greetings. See Matthew 5:17-18 (NKJV)

The [Bible] not only gives us every reason to believe in Jesus, according to the [Scriptures], it supports your ability to accept or reject it.  As one who trust the [Bible] to show me the difference between God’s plan of salvation and man’s understanding of it, I reject the Anthanasian Creed altogether.

“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)

When the gospel of Jesus Christ is preached in truth, you better believe the all-knowing God of the [Bible] is behind it, and “Whoever believes in” Jesus will be saved.  When the gospel of Jesus Christ is treated as hearsay, which is to say the cross will never be enough, it can be traced back to the Anthanasian Creed.

From those responsible for the Anthanasian Creed, to the one’s hearing about it for the very first time, teaching the Anthanasian Creed as sound doctrine is to say the cross will never be enough.

How do you know “the Son is God” exists?  That unless one believes the doctrine of the trinity one cannot be saved?  There’s only one answer to those questions, if you’re interested in preaching the gospel of Jesus Christ in truth.

The questions themselves wouldn’t exist if not for the Anthanasian Creed, which basically says the one who believes in Jesus according to the [Scriptures] isn’t saved. 

The Anthanasian Creed shouldn’t have made its way into the twenty first century.  It adds onto that which Jesus accomplished in the first century. 

It’s no secret, that people frequently accuse others of what they’re [actually] guilty of doing themselves.  Rejecting God’s plan of salvation is common practice these days as well.  Quoting absolute truths, taken straight from the [Bible], is treated as hate speech.  One would think those attending earthly institutions called “church” are excluded, when nothing could be further from the truth.

If they’ve chosen to believe the Anthanasian Creed, and teach it as sound doctrine, they’re relying on the wrong thing.  The Anthanasian Creed wouldn’t exist at all, and thus the doctrine of the trinity, if not for the writings of those not mentioned in the [Bible].

The gospel of Jesus Christ is meant for all peoples, and points them to that which Jesus accomplished in the first century.

The gospel message is easy to understand.  It doesn’t matter where one has been, what they’ve said or done, to the point of rejecting God’s plan of salvation altogether.  For them to hear the gospel of Jesus Christ being preached in truth is to know [exactly] why “For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son,” Jesus died on a cross for them.  The choice of having to believe in Jesus or not still has to be made, for salvation, but the Anthanasian Creed should not play a role in the decision making process.  It doesn’t matter when, where, or how the Anthanasian Creed is taught, it’ll never be supported by the gospel of Jesus Christ.  Choose wisely.

God bless.
