Faith, Biblical Faith

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.

As I listened to the local “Christian” radio station a follower of the Anthanasian Creed said, “Jesus can say in fifteen minutes what we can say in fifteen hours.”  Followers of the Anthanasian Creed believe and teach that unless one believes the doctrine of the trinity one cannot be saved.  This by itself eradicates all of what Jesus accomplished in the first century.  They could attempt to explain it for fifteen hours and fail to [Biblically] prove “the Son is God.”

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?

It has to be the [most] difficult thing to proclaim, for the follower of the Anthanasian Creed, saying that “the person” is saved.  I was once afraid of speaking out against the Anthanasian Creed, knowing it has absolutely nothing to do with the salvation of one’s soul, but now I’m not concerned one bit about doing it.

Jesus heard that they had cast him out; and when He had found Him, He said to him, “Do you believe in the Son of God?” He answered and said; “Who is He, Lord, that I may believe in Him?” And Jesus said to him, “You have both seen Him and it is He who is talking with you.” John 9:35-37 (NKJV) 

Jesus didn’t even need fifteen minutes to tell us He is “the Son of God.”  Faith, [Biblical] faith, is to not doubt what Jesus accomplished in the first century.  To believe in the Anthanasian Creed is to simply be misled.

God bless.

In His Care… Jim
