“Blessed
be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies and God
of all comfort,” 2 Corinthians 1:3 (NKJV)
In
the precious and beautiful name of Messiah Yeshua “Jesus,” greetings.
While listening to the local “Christian” radio station I
heard how essential it was for a “Christian” to have a “personal relationship”
with Jesus. “A personal relationship
with Jesus? In your current condition it’s not going to happen, at least
the way it should my friend.” This was my
first thought after about two minutes’ worth of what the speaker had to say. The speaker’s condition is that he’s a
follower of the Anthanasian Creed.
Saying the [only] way for a person
to be [Biblically] saved was [first] made known to the public in 325-AD, is exactly
what followers of the Anthanasian Creed are [forced] to do. Anything else would put the Anthanasian Creed
in its proper resting place, the nearest trash bin. This believe it or else “method of salvation”
found in that creed, isn’t leading anyone into having a personal relationship
with Jesus who happens to be the Son of God.
Nothing can be further from a
[Biblical] truth than to say the Anthanasian Creeds “the Son is God” and Jesus are one and
the same.
Even the so called “experts” on the Anthanasian Creed know Jesus
didn’t claim to be God. They know the
words “the Son is God” aren’t
in the inspired word of God as well. They’ll
tell you everything you need to know about the Anthanasian Creeds “the Son is God” is floating around in
what has to be hearsay at best, man’s interpretation of [Scripture].
“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)
A personal relationship with Messiah Yeshua begins with accepting
God’s plan of salvation which is to “that whoever believes in Him,” believe
in the Son of God (John 3:16).
Whoever confesses that Jesus is the
Son of God, God abides in him, and he in God.
1 John 4:15 (NKJV)
God’s plan of salvation isn’t complicated my friends. Man’s idea of what it should be however,
complicates matters. The significance of
Messiah Yeshua’s death, burial, and resurrection reaches far beyond anything
man can conjure up.
Let’s not lose sight of these four [significant] words found
at the beginning of this post, “in your current condition”. The speaker could very well be [Biblically]
saved, God knows. Unfortunately he’s one
of those teaching the [only] way for a person to be [Biblically] saved arrived
in 325-AD. He’s telling others how important
it is to have a “personal relationship” with Jesus, when he [really] needs to
consider what’s causing him to ignore [Biblical] truths. I can safely say the Anthanasian Creed is the
problem. The Anthanasian Creed has
absolutely nothing to do with the salvation of one’s soul. The Anthanasian Creed is nothing more, less
than, a distraction.
Followers of the Anthanasian Creed can say that I have it
all wrong and they are free to do just that, but it won’t change a thing. I know the inspired word of God has the final
say and, my personal relationship with Jesus began the moment John 3:16 became
personal, to me.
God bless.
In His Care… Jim
