Whoever Believes In Jesus

Those that don’t trust the Bible as is, have a different idea of who Jesus is. The Bible is sufficient for salvation, so don’t supplant what Jesus accomplished in the first century. Two people, one that believed in Jesus just prior to them taking their last breathe here on earth and the other believing in Christ Jesus for ten years, are both saved according to the Scriptures. There is no need to offer a different perspective. “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) God made the salvation message simple. Don’t let anyone or anything cause you to doubt your salvation.

The Way To Salvation

I determined, not to search for salvation through the Anthanasian Creed. I’d be making the word of God of no effect, if I was to impart, unless one believes “the Son is God” one cannot be saved. The Anthanasian Creed is [unquestionably] far-reaching on one account, that there’s no salvation outside the Anthanasian Creed. You can be thankful that Jesus died on a cross for the sin of the world, it paved the way to salvation.

Key Words

“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) Key words are, “the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.” “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) Key words are, “the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.” (Apostle John is speaking of Jesus here) “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) Key words are, “has made us kings and priests to His God and Father.” I have a hard time believing that Paul, Peter, or John, didn’t want people to read their writings, let alone to not see that Jesus’ God and Father and their God and Father are one and the same in them. After reading these three verses, would you find it hard to believe?

Be Watchful In All Things

“Preach the word! Be ready in season and out of season. Convince, rebuke, exhort, with all long-suffering and teaching. For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine, but according to their own desires, because they have itching ears, they will heap up for themselves teachers; and they will turn their ears away from the truth, and be turned aside to fables. But you be watchful in all things, endure afflictions, do the work of an evangelist, fulfill your ministry.” 2 Timothy 4:2-5 (NKJV) Let your life and wisdoms, be an expression of your love for Jesus. Be watchful in all things!!

Staying Faithful To God

We should not fixate on the regrets of the past or think to highly of ourselves. These both result in living outside the will of God. The importance of staying faithful to God and steering people towards the Biblical Jesus, are one and the same. Just as Jesus is the centerpiece of God’s plan of salvation, He must be the centerpiece of our daily life as well.

The Bible Makes Sense

The Bible makes sense, so don’t look for another source. When you trust those teaching false doctrines however, expect to be controlled by them. Jesus spoke these words found in John 14:25-26 (NKJV), “These things I have spoken to you while being present with you. But the Helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in My name, He will teach you all things, and bring to your remembrance all things that I said to you.” I’m all right with being reminded, as long as it turns me toward Jesus’ teachings. “And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.” John 8:32 (NKJV)

Let's Cancel Disbelief In The Bible

Let’s cancel disbelief in the Bible, and give devotion to it. The Bible is a story of redemption, and nothing will ever replace it. “For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God.” Romans 3:23 (NKJV) We’ll never be sinless on this side of heaven but the sin that keeps us out of heaven, is exonerated when we choose to believe in Jesus. Nothing could be more important, from one day to the next, than to trust Jesus. Nothing but confidence in Christ Jesus, could get me thru a time such as this.

I Say

I say turning ones back to what Jesus accomplished in the first century, God’s plan of salvation, is the greatest mistake one could make. The second is, adding to or subtracting from what has been clearly laid out for us in the Bible. What would you say is the greatest mistake one could make?

Continually Believing Jesus Is The Son Of God

There are plenty of reasons to be saddened these days but as for me, I refuse to let mere mortals dictate who I am in Christ. Jesus made it possible for me to be forgiven of all my sins. My refusal to accept the teachings of those not mentioned in the Bible, specifically those lifting up the Anthanasian Creed, won’t keep me from [continually] believing Jesus is the Son of God.

Thankfully

If salvation is set up by means of the Anthanasian Creed, then catalog the Bible as false doctrine. Thankfully, I’m happy to say, the Bible is trustworthy as is, and the Anthanasian Creeds method of salvation is not. I find it disconcerting however when the one advising us to stay clear of false doctrines, also teaches unless one believes “the Son is God” they cannot be saved. Not that I’m questioning their salvation, because these teachers just might confess that Jesus is the Son of God, thus being saved according to the Scriptures. It’s that nothing has caused more people to turn away from Biblical truths to false teachings, than the Anthanasian Creed.

The High Priest Of All False Doctrines

When it comes to the entirety of Anthanasian Creed, there’s nothing ambiguous about it. The ending sentence of it states: “This is the catholic (Christian) faith; which except you believe faithfully and firmly, you cannot be saved.” As you can see according to this “you cannot be saved,” being disloyal and without conviction to the Anthanasian Creed. The New Testament was documented in the first century while the earliest date given to the Anthanasian Creed, is 325-AD. I will continue pointing people to the Bible, specifically what Jesus accomplished in the first century. Confessing to being wrong isn’t a sin, we’re to learn from our past mistakes. I’m not worried one bit, because the word of God endures forever, and the Anthanasian Creed is the high priest of all false doctrines.

Confronted With The Truth

There is no debate, when it comes to how one treats the Bible. They’ll either leave it well enough alone as is, or they won’t. The person investing their time and money into what they believe to be a truth will find it difficult to accept the possibility of it being wrong. Pride, is not the friend of the gospel of Jesus Christ. Biblical teachers should be willing to turn from what they thought was true, when they’re confronted with the truth. Teaching Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, will always be the truth.

It Will Always Be True

The Anthanasian Creed may be widely known but one thing is for sure, it doesn’t align with Jesus’ teachings. I’m not calling anyone a liar here, unambiguously referring to followers of the Anthanasian Creed, I’m just not going to make Jesus out to be one. Is it true, that Jesus’ God and Father and your God and Father are one and the same? If you’re born again (John 3:7), saved according to the Scriptures, it is true. 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) For those believing in [trusting] Jesus, you can be assured for you it will always be true.

So Important

If everybody’s salvation hinged on the Anthanasian Creed, then there is no salvation. It is so important that we believe in [trust], Jesus.

The Second Person Of The Trinity?

This message speaks to what one must believe in order to be saved according to the Scriptures. As you read, don’t let your mind wander to anything beyond that. According to the Anthanasian Creed, “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.” “And in this Trinity none is before or after other; none is greater or less than another; But the whole persons are coeternal together, and coequal:” When you hear someone say “the second person of the [Trinity],” they’re actually referring the Anthanasian Creeds “[the Son is God].” These words “[the Son is God]” and “[Trinity]” are not found in the Bible. It’s a message that has been given to us, via the Anthanasian Creed. Let’s cut to the chase: there’s no evidence of anyone having to believe “[the Son is God]” to be saved, outside the Anthanasian Creed, at all. Whoever believes that Jesus is the Christ is born of God, and everyone who loves Him who begot also loves him who is begotten of Him. By this we know that we love the children of God, when we love God and keep His commandments. And His commandments are not burdensome. For whatever is born of God overcomes the world. And this is the victory that has overcome the world—our faith. Who is he who overcomes the world, but he who believes that Jesus is the Son of God? 1 John 5:1-5 (NKJV) You can’t separate Jesus from God’s plan of salvation, let alone add to or subtract from what Jesus accomplished in the first century. “[Jesus is the Christ],” Messiah, “[the Son of God].” You can separate yourself from “the second person of the [Trinity]” and the “[Trinity]” itself because they are based solely on a false doctrine. All you need to know is “[Who is he who overcomes the world, but he who believes that Jesus is the Son of God?]”

Believers Are Better Off

I’ve sent this question to [being on the safe side], at least 30 pastors and biblical teachers. If I gave you the names of those that I have sent it to over a period of four years, you’d recognize the majority of them. To date I’ve only received one [direct] answer to it “Yes, and no,” which really isn’t an answer at all. Here’s my question: 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? When I say “rejects the Anthanasian Creed altogether” I mean, treat the Anthanasian Creed as if it never existed at all. As one who loves Jesus, and who’s not ashamed to tell others about Him, I would say the person is saved. If the one confessing Jesus is the Son of God cannot say the person is saved, what’s keeping them from doing so? In a nutshell, the Anthanasian Creeds [man made] false method of salvation supersedes what Jesus accomplished in the first century. Jesus came into this world to save sinners and those confessing Jesus is the Son of God are better off not defending the Anthanasian Creed.
