    The Terrible End of Those who follow the Path of Jabal, Jubal and Tubal-Cain

    My review of Sermon 6 “Let’s Not Become the Descendants of Cain” of book 52 (The Difference between Abel’s Faith and Cain’s Faith)It is written in the Bible that Cain left the presence of God and dwelt in the land of Nod. Why would Cain leave God, who reigns over life and death? Even though God was making all effort to make him believe that He is the God who saves every sinner and to thus save him, he still left God. I pondered on why Cain left God so easily and recklessly. When Cain killed his brother Abel, he thought that no one could know and find out. People like Cain are the same people like Judas Iscariot. Judas Iscariot never believed in Jesus Christ as the Almighty God, that was the reason he collected thirty pieces of silver before the Last Supper (Matthew 26:15) and still refused to admit he would be the one to betray the Lord during the Last Supper (Matthew 26:17-25). In this way, even though God questioned Cain about the whereabouts of his brother Abel, he still denied knowing about him asking whether he was his brother’s keeper. People like these think nothing of God. They think of God as big elephant, perhaps big tree or some inanimate objects. They never believe that God is the only omnipotent and omniscient God, who exists by Himself and lives forever. These kinds of people have many gods in their hearts. Cain left God because he did not believe in Him. Cain leaving the presence of God means that he left God’s church. As a result, he became a wanderer, moving from one place to another not setting his heart on one place. He lost the peace of the Lord God, Cain became a fugitive and lived in fear. When people passed by, he hid himself in fear thinking, “Are they coming to kill me?” This is what inevitably happen to those who leave God. The biggest mistake he made was leaving God’s presence because he did not believe in Him.There are times even the people of God are on the run, but because they believe in God they do not run away from God but from men, so God always protects and helps them. We see when Jacob ran away from his brother Esau, because Jacob believe in God, He protected and helped him throughout the period. Who will then protect and help us when we leave God’s presence? We should never leave God’s church, no matter what. Looking at Cain and his descendants, we should never take the gospel of the water and the Spirit for granted nor think little of God’s church, even though we are insufficient and make countless mistakes, we should never leave God because He is the only self-existing Almighty God. Because there is no life outside God’s church, I will follow His church wherever God leads His church. I believe this is what pleases God. God told the Shulamite woman many times to return to His church, because He loves her (Song of Songs 6:13). This means that God hates it when we leave Him and try to live with the strength of our flesh. For those who leave God, God follows them around cursing them every step of their way, hoping they will turn around and return to Him. It doesn’t just end with them, God will curse their children and children’s children. There is no one who leaves God and still have peace and joy in his heart.When Cain became too downtrodden for killing his brother Abel, God set a mark of salvation on him so that no one should find and kill him. By setting mark of salvation on him, God was telling Cain “Even though you are evil and a murderer, I am the God of salvation. Believe in Me, and receive My salvation into your heart. You will receive protection and all blessings if you abide in Me. But you will face destruction and receive curses if you don’t believe in Me and leave My presence.”However, Cain did not believe in God till the end, he left Him instead and faced destruction. Even now God is telling everyone to receive their salvation by believing in the baptism that Jesus Christ His Son received from John the Baptist and the blood He shed on the Cross. But just how many people have left God and are now living outside His church?Cain left God, and built a city of his own and protected it with walls. He was the first person to build wall to protect himself. Adam and Eve lived under the protection of God, they never had to build a castle for protection against enemy`s attack. Cain was the first to build castle to protect himself, because he lived in fear all the days of his life. Fearing men, animals and even birds! I know that Cain would fear everything because he lived outside the protection of God. If we leave God, our souls will be bound by darkness again and we will wander to and fro and face death in the end. Even to this day, the descendants of Cain never settle down in one place and one thing, and live struggling with their own strength and die in vain. These kind of people depend on their physical strength and never trust in God, but when they run out of their physical strength they die. When a mouse falls into a bucket of water, it struggles to get out of the bucket. Swimming from one side to another, climbing up and down. In the end it runs out of strength, drinks lots of water and gets drowned. Those who leave God’s presence will struggle all alone and die in the end. But we will live the brightest life in both body and spirit if we believe in God and follow Him because God is the source of everything.Cain built a castle to protect himself on his own. When people leave God, they eventually build their castles. They build castles in many ways; they make friends with the worldly people and surround themselves with them and try to gain riches of the world, they try to build good relationship with worldly people and work hard to maintain it and have a happy family, they make up their religion and want to do everything on their own way. We are building our own castle if do not follow the teachings and instructions of God’s church. Those who say “Even though God’s church believe in this way, I do not believe in such way. Even though God’s church is doing the work in this way, I will do the work on the way that suits my own thoughts” are building their own castle, it means that our self-righteousness can be our castle. Those who build their own castle reign over their own lives, they are kings of themselves.But such castles will crumble in a single stroke. The descendants of Cain were Jabal, Jubal and Tubal-Cain. Jabal was a man of tents and livestock, Jubal was a man of flute and harps and Tubal-Cain was an instructor in every craftsman in bronze and iron (Genesis 4:20-22). By examining the life of these three descendants of Cain, we can see what all the descendants of Cain do all their lives on this earth. The first thing those who leave the presence of God do is to work hard with their physical strength to take care of food, shelter and clothing, and that is what Jabal did. After they have taken care of their basic need of food, shelter and clothing they go for pleasure of this world. Jubal was a man of flute and harps, it means that he lived enjoying the pleasures of this world. When those who leave God’s church have taken care of their basic need of food, shelter and clothing they definitely go for pleasure and when they have it they seek for a way to protect their wealth and loved ones. It is written that Tubal-Cain was an instructor in every craftsman in bronze and iron. Put it differently, he was a man of war. This is how human civilization has come to exist. Even in this world today, when a country becomes prosperous they next step they take is to protect their territory and people, they invest heavily in military arms and ammunition. This how human beings will destroy themselves in the future.However, God has warned us that He will curse those who follow the path of Cain, He will pass down their curses generation after generation. The curse of God will follow those who leave His church and build their castle. Those who do not believe in the gospel of the water and the Spirit are building their own castle with their own thoughts of their flesh. But what await them are God’s curses and eternal punishment in hell. Sinners said they have received the remission of their sins through the precious blood of Jesus Christ alone. Strictly speaking, this is just their own castle. It is written in the Bible that Jesus Christ came with both the water, the blood and the Holy Spirit to save us from our sins (1 John 5:6). When He was baptized at the Jordan River our sins were passed onto His head, He was crucified to receive the wages of our sins shedding His blood on the Cross, He rose again from the dead after three days. He has saved us from the sins of the world. Jesus Christ is the Son of God and God Himself, who was conceived by the Holy Spirit in the womb of Virgin Mary and put on human flesh to save His people. Believing in anything outside this Truth is also building our own castle.Unlike Cain and his descendants, the spiritual descendants of Abel believe in the Word of God as it is and offer the right faith to God and abide in His church. People like Abel know their weaknesses and therefore trust in God, they do not have anything to depend on but God. They simply know that they cannot survive without the help of God so they never leave God’s church.Let’s have the faith of Abel by believing in the God-given gospel of the water and the Spirit and dwell in His church so that we may not receive the curses that follow Cain and his descendants.

    By What Kind Of Faith Can We Receive The Remission Of Sin Now?

    REVIEW ON EBOOK 68 IF YOU HAVE CONFUSION AND EMPTINESS IN YOUR HEART SEEK THE LIGHT OF TRUTH PART(II)WRITTEN BY REV. PAUL C JONG LESSON FROM SERMON TWOBy What Kind Of Faith Can We Receive The Remission Of Sin Now? There is nowhere else by which the sermon question above can be answered except through the pure faith in the gospel of the water and the Spirit(John 3vs5) that is the gospel of God’s righteousness which constitutes Jesus’s baptism received from John the Baptist, His death on the cross and His resurrection(1John 5vs6). In addition it is the faith that testifies that Jesus Christ is indeed the Savior of all sinners born in this world, and has saved all mankind from sin through His baptism which He received from John the Baptist the last high priest of the New Testament(Luke1vs5) who performed his duty of priesthood by transferring all the sins of mankind onto the body of Jesus Christ just as Aaron had administered in the Old Testament.  Immediately John the Baptist laid His hands on the head of Jesus Christ, Jesus shouldered all the sins of mankind upon His own body by His baptism for once and for all and by His death on the cross Jesus paid all the wages of all mankind’s sins by the shedding of His blood and thereby has completely given the forgiveness of sins to those who believes in this work. Thus on the third day Jesus Christ rose again from dead again to give the newness of life to those who believes in His perfect work of salvation even His baptism, death and His resurrection. For such is the only faith that can receive the remission of sins now in these end times. And bring to God perfect offerings with a pure heart which is carry Jesus Christ in ones heart as the gospel of the water and the Spirit(John 3vs5). This is the perfect offering that the Lord wants each one of us to bring before Him, the offering of carrying  the perfect gospel truth of the water and the Spirit, so as we may be able to have true communion with Him as God our Father.Therefore, it is impossible for anyone to have this faith without first regarding the Law of God. One must understand the purpose of the law of God in his or her lifetime in order to come to the knowledge of ones own true nature(Romans3vs20). For it is through the perfect law of God that we come to understand the means by which everyone has to be saved from its sins. Just as God gave the Law to the descendants of Abraham on Mount Sinai, and opened a way for them to be washed from all their sins through their sacrificial offerings when they sinned as stated in (Leviticus 1:1-19). For only through this sacrificial system that the people of Israel could have communion with God after been washed from their sins through the God established rules of the sacrificial system as instructed by God through Moses as their representative. So just As the Israelites were able to commune with God after offering the sin sacrifice to be washed from sin according to the Mosaic Law in the Old testament, where anyone who had sinned against God in those days, had to pass his sins  to his sacrificial animal by laying his hands on its head, draw its blood, and the priest put the blood on the horns of the altar of burnt offering. In this way, the sin offering made it possible for God’s people to recognize their transgressions, be washed from Their sins through the sacrificial offering, and restore their relationship with God. As it is stated in Leviticus 16vs11-22 that, During the age of the Old Testament, on the tenth day of the seventh month every year, the High Priest offered to God the sacrifice of the Day of Atonement on behalf of the people of Israel.  When the High Priest offered the yearly sacrifice of the Day of Atonement in the Tabernacle, he had to pass the people’s sins to the sacrificial animal by laying his hands on its head and the animal was killed on behalf of the people of Israel for them to receive the forgiveness of sins or it was to be sent in the wilderness by the suitable man where it roamed back and forth around in that inhabited place without water nor food until it reached each its death.  Just as Aaron stood as the representative of the people of Israel  and offered the sin offerings for them through the laying on of hands in strictly accordance to the Mosaic established Law of Sacrificial system in the Old Testament. As such God has now made it possible for whole people now to come to realize His or her sinful  nature by His perfect Law and has thus blessed them with the perfect gospel  truth of the water and the Spirit which has washed away all their sins. And by having received this faith in the baptism of Jesus, His death and His resurrection. God has enabled those who believes in these tree righteous Acts of Jesus Christ to come to commune with God Father by having the true faith in the baptism of Jesus Christ, His death on the cross and His resurrection which is the perfect gospel truth for all mankind’s Salvation by firstly recognizing their heart’s sins. Therefore, through the Mosaic law of God, No flesh or any human  being can be justified by It. For by the Law of God is the knowledge of sin for all mankind. Thus God has made it possible for His only Begotten Son Jesus Christ to fulfil the perfect Mosaic Law of God, by being baptized by John the Baptist , the greatest man of those born of women, and He took away all the sins of mankind through the baptism He received from John thus made Himself mankind’s propitiation or as the eternal sacrificial offering, Jesus Christ was crucified and shed His blood on an accursed wooden cross as the sacrificial Lamb of mankind and completed our salvation as He said it is “It is Finished!” And became our one and only savior for this present world. It is with the baptism He received from John and His blood on the Cross that Jesus Christ, the Son of God, Completed His work of Salvation to deliver all of us, who now believe in Him, from all our sins once and for all. Just as the Bull was able to carry the sins of the Israelites after being transferred onto it by the laying on of hands by the high priest Aaron so does this laying of hands corresponds to the baptism of Jesus received from John the Baptist who is the descendant  of Aaron in order for Him to take away all the sins of the world once and for all, then shed His blood on the cross, and thus become our everlasting propitiation for us who believes in His righteous Acts even His baptism, death and His resurrection(1John 5vs6).With a complete conviction I have in the baptism of Jesus, His death and His resurrection which has made me to become sinless and righteous. You coming to read this book, So will you now also be saved from all your sins by believing in this Jesus who was baptized by John the Baptist to take away all the sins of the world, Shed His blood to death on the cross to pay the wages of sins and rose from the dead again to give newness of life to anyone who believes and He will thus permit the Holy Spirit to dwell in that person’s heart or soul. Then can anyone confess that Jesus Christ is indeed their savior. Just as Romans 10vs10 state , “For with the heart one believes unto righteousness, and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation”. Hallelujah!!May God bless His great work of preaching the gospel.BRENDA TEMBO, ZAMBIA   The New Life Mission · REVIEW ON EBOOK68 SERMON TWO - Audio

    The gospel of the water and the Spirit which God has revealed to those whose hearts are innocent in this last age

    My review of book 68 titled “If You Have Confusion and Emptiness in Your Heart, Seek the Light of the Truth ( II )” All the saints written in the Bible had the true faith that delivered them from the sins of the world. From Apostle Peter to Martha, Lazarus’s sister. We can also receive the remission of our sins and commune with God when we believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God who took away all our sins once and for all by being baptized by John the Baptist at the age of 30 and crucified on the Cross. Peter said “You are the Christ, the Son of the living God.” People of faith like Peter will be saved from their lifelong sins and given the right to become the children of God who can pray to Him and receive His help. Because God cannot have fellowship with us unless we first unite our hearts with His will by receiving the remission of our sins. For us to pray to God and receive His help in this end time, we must have the faith that glorifies the name of God. We can live in this turbulent world victoriously only by the help of God, we often face hardships and troubles, that is the more reason we need to have a faith that commune with God. In the end time we will stand before kings and leaders and defend our faith in the gospel of the water and the Spirit. Like Joseph of Arimathea we will boldly stand against Antichrist on the last days to glorify God with our martyrdom. Therefore, the first thing a sinner has to do to be able to commune with God is to pray to God to wash away his sins. And God will meet such a person with the Word of the water and the Spirit that Jesus Christ His Son has fulfilled for mankind.The faith we need to unite with God is not the one that is based on Nicene Creed created by human being. Our faith must be the one that is comparable to the Word of Old Testament and New Testament. The gospel of the water and the Spirit is the fulfilment of the sacrificial system of the Old Testament. Because God found fault with the first covenant for it could not save anyone perfectly, He sought to abolish it and established the new covenant. God sealed this new covenant with an oath saying, “You are a Priest forever according to the order of Melchizedek.” Moreover He promised that He would put His law in our minds and write it in our hearts, and not on a stone tablet or scroll. This is an amazing covenant. Just as He promised, God sent Jesus Christ His Son In the flesh of a man according to the order of Melchizedek in the age of the New Testament who was baptized by John the Baptist at the Jordan River to receive our sins onto His body, crucified and rose again from the dead to save us from our sins. He has written this Law of salvation — the gospel Word of the water and the Spirit in the minds and hearts of the believers. All the believers have the witness in their minds and hearts and as a result no sins can be found in the hearts of the believers in the Word of the water and the Holy Spirit. God has fulfilled His promise for mankind. Because the faith in the gospel of Jesus’s baptism and blood has been written in our hearts, God said He will no longer remember our sins and lawless deeds. This is the covenant that is fitting for us human beings who are weak. The "laying on of hands" of the Old Testament sacrificial system is the baptism of Jesus Christ in the New Testament. It means that Jesus Christ, the Son of God, came to this earth to save us from our sins through the baptism He received from John the Baptist and the blood He shed on the Cross. In the Old Testament God gave the Mosaic Law to the people of Israel, but because He knew they could not obey the Law, God had also given them the sacrificial system after giving the Law to Moses. You are mistaken if you think Moses came down from Mount Sinai with only the Law of do’s and don’ts when God first gave him the 613 articles of the Law. No. After giving Moses the Law on the Mount Sinai, God also showed him the pattern of the sacrificial system of the Tabernacle right there on the mountain. This further shows us the purpose of the Law and the love of God. By giving us the Law God wanted us to know that we are people who have other gods before Him, we are murderers, we are people who cannot keep all the 613 articles of the Law, and by accompanying the Law with the sacrificial system He made a way for us to receive the remission of our sins. However, the people of Israel in their arrogance pledged to keep the Law. This is like challenging God whose intention in giving the Law was to enable mankind realize their sinfulness and seek the salvation He is offering to them. Even now, there are also still people who are trying hard to keep the Law, and there are also others who claim that the law is no longer needed in their lives. Both kinds of people are wrong. The laws was not given for us to keep, nor did God want us to throw it away. Rather it is through the law that we can see our original sinful nature and seek the salvation God is offering us. It is for us to realize that we are beings who are to be condemned for our sins and be cast to hell, that God gave us His law. If we are to void the Law, then we will no longer be able to recognize our sins and praise God for His righteousness that has come through the gospel of the water and the Spirit, nor will any sinner be able to meet the gospel of the water and the Spirit. For those who are working hard to keep the Law, God will wait for them until they realize that they cannot keep the Law, then He will give them the gospel of the water and the Spirit. I pray that everyone will meet Jesus Christ by realizing their sins and their consequences through the Law, just like the man traveling from Jerusalem to Jericho met Him on his way. I hope that the Lord will meet them someday when their hearts become innocent, open and show them the gospel of the water and the Spirit.This gospel of the water and the Spirit is not cheap, it is more precious than any precious stones. And not just anyone can see this gospel because God does not reveal this gospel of the water and the Spirit to those whose hearts are not innocent. It pleases God to hide it in this way and reveal it to those who truly yearn for it. For those whose hearts have been occupied by the Nicene Creed promulgated by Constantine and his followers in AD 325, the gospel is sealed. However, God has opened and showed the gospel of the baptism of Jesus Christ and His blood to those who are not satisfied with this man-made doctrine or things of the world. Jesus Christ, the Son of God left His throne, came to this earth and dwelt among men. He lowered Himself to such an extent because He loves us. Even though He reigns over heaven and earth as the King of kings, He still came in the flesh of a man. God made Him a Priest forever according to the order of Melchizedek, this means that the Son of God has saved mankind once and forever. In the Old Testament, the priests were cut off by death, so they ministered just a short time and died. God decided not to send His own Son according to the order of Aaron but according to order of Melchizedek the King of Salem who has no beginning and end of days. Jesus Christ the Son of God existed even before the foundation of the world, He was with the Father when the world was created. He is God of the Word. He created the world with His Word, everything came to exist because the Son commanded them to exist. He is the Son of God the Father and God to us. After creating everything, this God of the Word said “Let Us make man in Our image, according to Our likeness;” Jesus Christ was with His Father and the Holy Spirit when the world was created. He was the very Creator who made man and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life and man became a living being (Genesis 2:7). It is Jesus Christ, the Son of God who did this work of creation and the work of saving man from sins.When His creatures fell into the temptation of Satan and sinned against God, He left His throne and came to save His own. He is our Creator, it is fair to Him that He should pity us His own creatures because He love us who were made in His image.He came down to save us from our sins. He has delivered us from our sin and death, by being baptized by John the Baptist to have our sins passed on His body through the laying on of hands on his head by John the Baptist. Just before his baptism John had tried to resist Him but Jesus commanded him, “Permit it to be so now, for thus it is fitting for us to fulfill all righteousness.” (Matthew 3:15), this baptism is the only way Jesus Christ could receive our sins onto Himself and there is no other way. The next day after baptizing Jesus, John saw Him passing by and witnessed “Behold! The Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world!” (John 1:29). He was saying that Jesus Christ has taken the sins of the world through the baptism he gave Him “yesterday”, just as the sacrificial animal took the sins of the Israelites in the Old Testament through the laying on of hands.Three years after receiving baptism from John the Baptist He was crucified on the Cross with our sins on His body to receive the judgement appropriate for our sins and rose again from the dead. He has given us resurrection and eternal life, and now resting at the right hand of the throne of God the Father. This is how the believers in the gospel of the water and the Spirit have come to receive rest in their hearts. If Jesus Christ forgives our sins each time we ask for forgiveness through the daily prayer of repentance, then He could not be resting now. Rather He must be coming down to this earth each time we offer such prayer, and we cannot truly say with good conscience that we have received rest in our hearts as our hearts will still be bound by the fearful judgement of God because of our sins. Because God has given a law that says the wages of sin is death, it has been fated for those who have sins in their hearts to be cast into hell as punishment for their sins. But through the love of God, we can now receive the remission of our sins once and forever by believing in the gospel of the water and the Spirit that God’s own Son has fulfilled.But the gospel that today’s Christians believe in is not the gospel of the water and the Spirit but a gospel that was made at the First Council of Nicaea summoned by Constantine in AD 325. It was unimaginable for Constantine to believe that Jesus Christ is the only Saviour of mankind, seeing that he was a polytheist like other Romans. How could he possibly cast out the numerous Romans gods and believe only in Jesus Christ the Son of God as His Saviour and Saviour of the whole world? Even if he had done so, he would have faced a strong opposition. It would have appeared like a betrayal to the Romans and it would also mean that other Romans gods are not true gods and Saviour. Giving such a situation, how could he possibly have gone unopposed if he had accepted Jesus Christ as the only Saviour? This is unthinkable to him, however he could have believed in Jesus Christ as the only Saviour and become the first Roman emperor to do so, and possibly lead his people also to the gospel of the water and the Spirit. But he did not do this.Even so, Constantine had to somehow incorporate the faith of Christians into the his Roman’s belief system, since he had already made it a state religion, having previously had a dream before winning a war. It is reasonable that he did not want to completely wipe out Christian faith but to merge it with existing beliefs. He had to select the part he wanted and reject the other. He selected the blood and threw away the baptism, this is where Christians found themselves today. The Apostle’s Creed that we now have contains the faith in Jesus Christ as God’s only Son. Saying that Jesus Christ is the Son of God means that He is God Himself. Of course, I don’t know whether the writers of the Apostle’s Creed understood it as such but it is true that the Son of God is God. Jesus Christ the Son of God is equal with the Father. We can see this clearly when we go to the Bible, in Philippians 2:5-8 it is written "Let this mind be in you which was also in Christ Jesus, who, being in the form of God, did not consider it robbery to be equal with God, but made Himself of no reputation, taking the form of a bondservant, and coming in the likeness of men. And being found in appearance as a man, He humbled Himself and became obedient to the point of death, even the death of the cross." Apostle Paul is saying that Jesus Christ has always been God. Though Jesus Christ is God who is equal with the Father, He did not hesitate to leave His throne and glory and came in the likeness of men, seen in appearance as a man and even dwelt among men. Even though He was God Himself, He humbled Himself even to the point of dying shameful death for our sins which He accepted with His baptism. We can now see why the Jews sought to stone Jesus when He said He was the Son of God. God the Father is divine so His Son must also be divine. Just in the same way human being give birth to human being. Although we can see the word that Jesus Christ is the Son of God in the Apostle’s Creed, the makers of the Apostle’s Creed however removed an important part of the gospel of the water and the Spirit — the baptism of Jesus Christ. As Satan the Devil worked with them throughout the session of the meeting that produced the Nicene Creed. They removed the baptism of Jesus Christ and has rendered Christianity as one of the world’s religions. I heard that there is an ancient Roman tactic called “divide and conquer”, for one to keep his power, he caused a disagreement among opposing groups, weakened and subdued them. In some countries, politicians do such by bribing key members of the opposing group. Constantine deployed similar method; by removing the baptism of Jesus Christ he has turned Christians into a toothless bulldog that cannot even bark. Christianity whose faith is based on Nicene Creed has lost the light, so they cannot shine the light of Truth no matter how many times God might command them to arise and shine.Now, Christians must realize the origin of their false faith and reform it by believing in the gospel of the water and the Spirit which was foreshadowed in the Old Testament. Jesus Christ the Son of God came in the New Testament according to the order of Melchizedek. Melchizedek king of Salem was written about in the Old Testament. He met Abraham on his way returning from the defeat of Chedorlaomer and the kings who were with him. “Then Melchizedek king of Salem brought out bread and wine; he was the priest of God Most High” (Genesis 14:18). Melchizedek king of Salem is translated as king of peace and king of righteousness. Who then is the king of peace and King of righteousness? It is Jesus Christ, the Son of God. Melchizedek was Jesus Christ. Just as the laying on of hands in the Old Testament is the baptism of Jesus Christ in the New Testament. This Melchizedek gave Abraham bread and wine, foreshadowing Jesus Christ of the New Testament who gave us bread and wine. “And as they were eating, Jesus took bread, blessed and broke it, and gave it to the disciples and said, “Take, eat; this is My body.” Then He took the cup, and gave thanks, and gave it to them, saying, “Drink from it, all of you. For this is My blood of the new covenant, which is shed for many for the remission of sins” (Matthew 16:26-28). Jesus gave us His body — by being baptized by John the Baptist our sins were passed onto His body. And He took the sins on His body to the Cross shedding His blood for the judgment of those sins dying on it saying “It is finished!” This is the bread and wine He brought to us. By looking at how the Word of Old Testament and New Testament match, we can see how broad the wisdom of God is and what a long plan He took to save us from our sins. There is a proverb in our place that says “Whoever eats with the Devil should use long spoon.” This means for us not to be defeated by Satan the Devil, we must calculate first and think far ahead. In the movie The Matrix Reloaded, Smith thought he could defeat Neo by cloning him into his copy. Towards the end of the movie he cloned Neo, it was not long he saw Neo body cracking and bursting so he regretted saying “Oh, no, no, no. No, it’s not fair.” It is not fair to him because he had thought he could win by cloning Neo, but Neo body bursting means all his copies including he himself will also burst, he lost the fight instead. After Jesus Christ the Son of God had pleased God the Father by taking the sins of the world with His baptism, Satan thought he could end everything by killing Him. He moved men to kill Jesus, but when Jesus said on the Cross “It is finished!”, Satan came to realize that he had lost the fight. This is how wise our God is, He hid the Truth from the evil ones.However, Christians in the Late Antiquity fell victim of Satan’s attack. When we study a little bit more about the events prior to the First Council of Nicaea in AD 325, we can see that Devil has carefully laid a trap for Christians. Constantine had a strong opposition named Maxentius, with numerically superior armies. Before going to war with this opposition, Constantine had seen a vision of cross-shaped trophy in the sky formed from light and with the words “in this sign, conquer” written in Greek. It is said that he marked the shields of his soldiers with the cross sign before going to the war. In AD 312 he won the war — the Battle of the Milvian Bridge defeating his closest rival Maxentius who drowned in a river, thus he became an undisputed Roman emperor. After winning the war, he attributed the victory to the God of Christians and in AD 313, he issued the Edict of Milan which legalized Christianity and made it the state religion. Christians then might have felt relieved from their persecution and wanted to enjoy freedom but they never knew they were falling into a trap. Satan had already set a trap for Christians, and in the First Council of Nicaea in AD 325 Christianity was caught in this trap. At this meeting, the baptism of Jesus Christ was removed and only the blood of the Cross was emphasized from then on. The gap between AD 313 when the Edict of Milan was issued and AD 325 when the First Council of Nicaea was held was 12 years. It seems to me that the faith of Christians were weakened greatly for such a long period of not exercising their faith, because they were enjoying religious freedom without persecution. So when the First Council of Nicaea was summoned, they couldn’t resist the Nicene Creed. Constantine therefore distorted the gospel of the water and the Spirit in the Late Antiquity. They knew about the baptism of Jesus Christ before the First Council of Nicaea, they removed it intentionally, but it seems that they never really knew they were committing a great sin against God. They probably thought they were doing service to Christians and their God by editing their faith to become a universally accepted religion and merging it with Roman’s belief system. As a result, today’s Christians are still sticking to only the Cross as their salvation with do-or-die devotion.Now therefore, we must never distort this gospel of the water and the Spirit as Constantine did. We have to keep the faith in the baptism of Jesus Christ and His bloodshed. If we follow the wicked thoughts of our flesh we will surely come to disturb the gospel of the water and the Spirit. We can avoid the sin of blasphemy against the Holy Spirit committed by Constantine and his followers by following the Word of God and not our wicked thoughts. If we follow the Word given through God’s servant in His church and the desire of the Holy Spirit, we will never fall into the sin that Constantine fell into. The mistaken thoughts of Constantine and his hired theologians have led Christians far away from the Truth of salvation. No one should follow the Nicene Creed that is sickening the hearts of people today, we must instead be led by the Word of God. The gospel of the water and the Spirit is all that Christians of this last age need to meet the Lord again in joy. However those who fail to believe in this gospel of Jesus’s baptism and blood and follow this Word will miss the Lord and His church. God is telling us that if we fail to hold onto His Word and follow His will to preach the gospel of the water and the Spirit all over the world, and instead keep following our own wicked thoughts of the flesh we will be deported from His church someday and miss Him.I am happy that I met the gospel of the water and the Spirit while still living in this world, otherwise I would have been cast into hell on the last day. It’s fortunate to live in this century, where one can easily find the gospel of the water and the Spirit if only one will seek it. I am sure that you too will meet the gospel of the water and the Spirit which Constantine and his followers distorted by reading this book. And I thank God for giving us His Word of salvation in this last age.Hallelujah!

    IF YOU HAVE CONFUSION AND EMPTINESS IN YOUR HEART SEEK THE LIGHT OF TRUTH (II)

    LESSON FROM SERMON ONEHOW TO PRAY ACCORDING TO THE LORD`S PRAY. What the Lord of the believers in gospel of the water and the Spirit is teaching us His believers and the unbelievers of the gospel of the water and the Spirit alike through the Lord’s pray in ( Mathews 6vs5-15). Jesus Christ is the Savior of all humankind from sins, but unfortunately most people do not really comprehend that Jesus Christ is indeed the Savior who has saved all Humankind from its sins, due to lack of Knowledge on the complete salvation even the gospel of the water and the Spirit. Just as many people only know Jesus Christ has one who died on the cross for their sins. This simply shows that indeed most people having fallen into the deception of the devil as they only believe in the blood of Jesus alone and are thereby still left with sin intact in their hearts even after professing to believe in the Lord Jesus Christ. This shows how lacking of understanding they are on the truth that Jesus Christ is the their Savior who has saved all mankind from sins through His baptism, death and His resurrection  which is the only perfect gospel truth for all mankind. Thus the Lord is now teaching us how He has saved us from all our sins as the eternal lamb of God (John1vs29) and the eternal high priest(Psalms110vs4) through His Lord`s Prayer.Mathews 6vs9-14 Says, In this manner, therefore, pray:  Our Father in heaven, Hallowed be Your name.  Your kingdom come. Your will be done On earth as it is in heaven.  Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our debts, As we forgive our debtors. And  do not lead us into temptation, But deliver us from the evil one. From the above scripture reading, The Lord is pointing out to the perfect gospel truth of Salvation for all Humankind which has blotted out all the sins of mankind  through the baptism of Jesus He received  from  John  the Baptist the representative of all mankind and His blood of the cross by which He paid all the wages of sins, and by His resurrection through which He has given  the newness of life to those who believes in it. He said, in this manner therefore, pray: Our Father in Heaven, Hallowed be your name. Jesus Christ is reminding each and every person to come to the knowledge of his or her true nature. It  is through this scripture verse that the Lord is teaching everyone about both of His covenant, that is the old covenant and new covenant. It says in Jeremiah 31:33-34 here: “But this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days, says the Lord: I will put My law in their minds, and write it on their hearts; and I will be their God, and they shall be My people. No more shall every man teach his neighbor, and every man his brother, saying, ‘Know the Lord,’ for they all shall know Me, from the least of them to the greatest of them, says the Lord. For I will forgive their iniquity, and their sin I will remember no more.” Thus the Lord gave His perfect law to us as the old covenant for us, He gave us His law so that each person may come to recognize his or her true nature as a pile of sins, and thereby come to ask God for the washing of ones sins just as it is confirmed in Romans3vs20. So that through ones recognition has a pile of sins or broad of evildoer, God sees such a heart that has genuinely admitted to be a pile of sins and cannot help but commit sin throughout. It is from  this point that the Lord reveals the new covenant to such a person.It should be noted that it is at this time when the The new covenant that God gave us that His Son Jesus Christ would come to this earth and save mankind from all sins by being baptized by John and crucified. God made this covenant with us mankind in His Son. But yet because mankind have not known the knowledge of his sins. Today’s many people who professes to believe in Jesus Christ as their savior but yet still have sins intact in them, do not know that their true selves are nothing but piles of sins, so they still tried to reach salvation by keeping the Word of God or His perfect Law But they cannot keep the promise of God, Neither can I nor anyone else among all humankind. For by the perfect law of God is the knowledge  of sin. However, God made a new covenant with all of us for the remission of sins. He said , “I will save you from all your sins.” God made this covenant with us in His name. Because God knew that human beings were too weak to keep His Law, He promised to save them from all their sins with the Word of the new covenant. Where He sent is only Begotten Son Jesus Christ has our propitiation for all mankind’s sins through the baptism received from John the Baptist where He shouldered all the sins of the world once and for all and His blood of the cross where He paid all the wages of sins and has thus made those who believes to be without sin and He thus calls us His believers in His precious gospel of the water and the Spirit and now He also calls us His Children. In addition, everyone who does not believe in the gospel truth of the water and the Spirit should stop trying hard to keep the word of the law of God on their own and should stop refusing to believe in the word of God’s Grace the gospel of the water and the Spirit and be washed from their sins thus be able to call out to the name of the Lord has their  Father and be able to Hallowed His name. Thus allowing the fulfillment of the Lord’s prayer in our lives with  with the Word of the baptism that Jesus Christ, the Son of God, received from John and His blood on the Cross. This means that we all ought to be washed from all our sins by placing our faith in this Truth now, and then call God our Father. For us to be able to call the holy God our Father by faith, we must first believe in the baptism that His Son Jesus Christ received from John and His blood on the Cross as our salvation. Just has a mango tree bear mangoes, so did the Holy God made us Holy by washing away all our sins of our hearts through His Son Jesus Christ’s baptism , His death on the cross and His resurrection(1John 5vs6). Now we are able to honor the name of the Lord and are now able to live out the Lord’s Prayer in our lives.Therefore, I have complete conviction in my heart, that once you come to read this book, you shall surely be saved from your sins for you will come to understand the power of the gospel of the water and the Spirit(John 3vs5).

    MANKIND MUST COME TO THE KNOWLEDGE OF HIS EVILIEST NATURE.

    MANKIND MUST COME TO THE KNOWLEDGE OF HIS EVILIEST NATURE Ebook29  WHICH GOSPEL PERFECT CHRISTIANS? written by Paul c Jong. This book explains clearly how mankind is to be reborn from his sinful nature and how he is generated to a newness of life in Christ and live in obedience to his word by having genuine faith in the gospel of the water and the Spirit spoken of in John3vs5. It is so imperative for mankind to come to the knowledge of His eviliest nature.Mark chapter 7vs21-23  Tells us that it is,  For from the inside, from your heart, come the evil ideas which lead you to do immoral things, to rob, kill, commit adultery, be greedy, and do all sorts of evil things; deceit, indecency, jealousy, slander, pride, and folly---all these evil things come from inside you and make you unclean.* therefore, It is indispensable for everyone to know himself or herself strictly through the written word of God. It is said that if one desires to follow the Lord, the first thing that must be done, he must first deny himself(Mathews 16vs24). But unfortunately it is impossible for one to deny himself or herself without firstly knowing his true self. Hence, for one to deny himself, he must first come to know his evil self  genuinely and admit it before God that he is such an evil person who cannot help but spill out sin just as a glass full of water…..And come to believe in the true gospel of the water and the Spirit which constitutes Jesus’s baptism, his death on the cross and his resurrection as the only gospel truth that has blotted out all the lifetime sins of mankind once and for all and live to serve God by his faith. Then can one claim that he knows God the Father, Once after obtaining this true faith by believing only in his Begotten Son Jesus Christ, that he was baptized by John the Baptist at the Jordan river to take away all the sins of the world, which had made him to die on the cross to pay the wages of the very sins he received from John by the shed of his blood, and after three days He resurrected to justify us, that is giving us the newness of life in Him alone. For there is only one true gospel which makes mankind to obtain and be made in the image and likeness of God, and this is none other than the gospel of the water and the Spirit(John 3vs5) which constitutes Jesus’s baptism received from John the Baptist, the representative and the last high priest of man, also His death on the cross by which the wages of sins were paid for by his blood shed and by His resurrection through which newness of life is obtained by those who believes with a complete genuine heart.But what happens to those people who do not believe in the gospel of the water and the Spirit, these are the people who have fallen into the religions of this world and are not interested in the gospel of the water and the Spirit that contain s the righteousness of God but instead are only interested in religious power and material things. And as a result, they just bring about foolish consequences in the end. Therefore unless they break down their fleshly thoughts and hearts they can never receive the salvation of God that contains His righteousness of Jesus Christ by faith and they will not be able to attain the kingdom of Heaven. In order to attain the gospel of the water and the Spirit, one must deny one’s own fleshly thoughts and believe only in the baptism Jesus received and His blood, which is the righteousness of God. For it is impossible for you to receive salvation from all your sins if one does not believe in both the baptism which Jesus received from John the Baptist and the blood of the Cross.Thus said the Lord, If any of you want to come with me, you must forget yourself, carry your cross, and follow me.(Mathew16vs24). Therefore everyone must believe in the perfect Gospel of the water and the Spirit that the Lord gave in order to receive salvation from the sins of the world. To God it is impossible to receive His blessings without one denying his fleshly thoughts. However most people believe that they have received the remission of their sins by believing only in the blood on the cross, which is a kind of half-baked faith that can never make one to receive the remission of his sins. But still these people who only believes in the blood of Jesus alone claim to have received salvation from all their sins without knowing the righteousness of God, and without the knowledge and the faith of the righteousness of God. Such people are the very believers in the false gospel that is very different from the gospel of the water and the Spirit. So unless they cast away their fleshly thoughts and false faith that believes only in the blood of Jesus alone and take heed to the gospel of the water and the Spirit as it is preached to them by the true servants of God they will never receive the remission of sins and because of this, they will be heading to hell and suffer eternal destruction. Nonetheless we must all cast away our fleshly thoughts if we truly desire to follow the Lord in accordance to His word and by the faith in the gospel of the water and the Spirit which is the only true gospel that qualifies one to be purified from sin and remain perfected in his hearts and receive a clear conscience toward the Living God with a genuine faith in the baptism of Jesus received from John the Baptist and His death on the cross and His resurrection. For it is only this very faith in the gospel of the water and the Spirit that permits anyone who believes in it to receive the love of God Almighty who has saved us from all our sins by offering Jesus Christ His only Son our Lord(1Timothy 2vs3-5).Thus one must accept this fact that only the gospel of the water and the Spirit which constitutes Jesus’s baptism, His death on the cross and His resurrection is the only gospel that holds the perfection for all Christians and mankind and permit them to enter the Kingdom  of God.Hallelujah!
