“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 making he who overcomes a pillar in the temple of His God, Messiah Yeshua “Jesus,” greetings. See Revelation 3:12 (NKJV)
By the grace of God, I know just enough about God’s plan of
salvation. Enough to know that it is Satan’s
plan to get me to distrust it. I [believe
in] accept what Jesus accomplished in the first century. I am a born again, true follower of Messiah
Yeshua “Jesus.” I [believe] accept,
Satan has a 0% chance of snatching me away from Messiah Yeshua “Jesus,” the Son
of God, because the [Bible] tells me so.
Recently I was given four examples, as to why one should [believe]
accept the Anthanasian Creed’s explanation of the true God and true Jesus
Christ. They are examples that [only] a follower
of the Anthanasian Creed would say, that believing them are essential to one’s salvation.
Here are these four examples:
“The triune nature of God.”
“The eternality and deity of Jesus Christ
and His humanity.”
“The begotten nature of Jesus.”
“The death, burial, and resurrection of
Jesus.”
If you’ve spent any time at all on this blog, you’d know I
reject the Anthanasian Creed altogether.
For those [believing in] accepting what Jesus accomplished
in the first century, born again, true followers of Messiah Yeshua “Jesus.” If the Anthanasian Creed never existed at all,
would you still be saved? I say, “Yes!”
If you’re confessing Jesus is the Son of God, the Lord and
the Savior of your life, but believing that you wouldn’t be saved if rejecting
the Anthanasian Creed altogether, you’re standing in a crossroad. The roads before you are the [Bible] and, the
writings of those not mentioned in the [Bible]. The decision that needs to be made as to
which road to take is between you and the all-knowing God of the [Bible].
It is my obligation to tell
you that sometime after choosing to believe in Jesus Christ, it is likely that
you’ve mistaken the writings of those not mentioned in the [Bible] for
the [Bible]. The person confessing Jesus
is the Son of God, the Lord and the Savior of their life, is saved.
Some believe that this person is not saved
without first believing the Anthanasian Creed, something that surfaced and
became doctrine of the Catholic Church in 325-AD. These are followers of the Anthanasian
Creed. For the past sixteen hundred plus
year’s, people have been led to believe the only way to salvation is found in
the Anthanasian Creed, when the writings of those found in the [Bible]
say differently.
It’s Sunday. A man
enters the local church. He’s in town on
business and hasn’t been seen inside a church for over fifty years, except for
weddings and funerals. If you knew this
man you’d say, he’s not interested in hearing about the [Bible]. He’s greeted by many, but remains a stranger
to them.
The message he heard that day was taken straight from the
[Bible], believe in Jesus Christ and you will be saved. Unbeknownst to those present that day the man
wasn’t saved, when he entered the church that is.
Praise God, before the entire congregation, the man
confessed to being a sinner, thanked Jesus for dying on a cross for him, and
now believes in Jesus Christ. If I was
present that day, I’d say this man is saved.
After church the man was invited to lunch, an opportunity to
celebrate the moment. During this time
he mentioned that he was in town for another week, and would like to get
together again. “There’s a [Bible] study
on Wednesday night,” they said. With
great joy, he accepts the invitation.
It’s Wednesday. For
the first time this born again believer in Jesus Christ heard, unless one
believes the doctrine of the “Trinity” they cannot be saved. Confused, the man says, “Am I saved? Sunday’s message opened my eyes as to who
Jesus is, what He did for me. It changed
my life. All I want to do now is tell
people about Jesus. What is this
doctrine of the trinity?”
As one who loves Jesus, and who’s not ashamed to tell others
about Him, I say nothing has caused more people to turn away from [Biblical]
truths to false teachings, than the Anthanasian Creed. The Anthanasian Creed doesn’t exists at all,
and thus the doctrine of the trinity, if not for the writings of those not
mentioned in the [Bible].
God bless.
In His Care… Jim
