THE TRUE GOSPEL THAT CAN SAVE YOUR SOUL, AGAINST SATAN'S FALSE GOSPELS THAT DECEIVE YOU AND LEAD YOU TO HELL IF YOU BELIEVE AND TRUST THEM.
testifying both to the Jews, and also the greeks, REPENTANCE TOWARD GOD, AND FAITH TOWARD OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST. acts 20:21). BUT SHOWED first unto them of Damascus, and at Jerusalem, and throughout all the coasts of Judea, and then to the gentiles, that they should REPENT AND TURN TO GOD, AND DO WORKS MEET SUITABLE) FOR REPENTANCE. ACTS 26:20).
Moreover brethren, I declared unto you the Gospel which I preached unto you, which also you have received, and wherein you stand, by which also you are saved if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless you have believed in vain. For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures, And that He was buried, and that He rose again the third day according to the scriptures: And that He was seen of Cephas, then of the twelve. After that, He was seen of about 500 brethren at once, of whom the greater part remain unto this present, but some have fallen asleep 1 Corinthians 15:1-6).
IN WHOM YOU ALSO TRUSTED , AFTER THAT YOU HEARD THE WORD OF TRUTH, THE GOSPEL OF YOUR SALVATION: IN WHOM ALSO AFTER THAT YOU BELIEVED, YOU WERE SEALED WITH THE HOLY SPIRIT OF PROMISE. Ephesians 1:12-13). THAT THE GOD OF OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST, THE FATHER OF GLORY, MAY GIVE UNTO YOU THE SPIRIT OF WISDOM AND REVELATION IN THE KNOWLEDGE OF HIM. Ephesians 1:17).
but I make known to you, brethren, that the gospel which was preached by me is not according to man. for I neither received it from man, nor was I taught it, but it came through the revelation of Jesus Christ." Galatians 1:11-12).
For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ, for it is the power of God to salvation to everyone that believes, to the Jew first, and also to the Greek. Romans 1:16).
for the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is the power of God.(1 Corinthians 1:18).
What happens if we Preach or accept a different Gospel then Paul preached. Paul preached the Gospel by revelation of Christ.
Paul, an apostle, (not of men, neither by man, but by Jesus Christ, and God the Father who raised him from the dead) and all the brethren which are with me, unto the churches of Galatia: Grace be to you and peace from God the Father and from our Lord Jesus Christ. Who gave himself for our sins, that he might deliver us from this present evil world, according to the will of God and our father: To him be glory for ever and ever amen. I marvel that ye are so soon removed from him that called you into the grace of Christ unto another Gospel: Which is not another, but there be some that trouble you, and would pervert the gospel of Christ. But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel unto you than that which we have preached unto you, let him be accursed. As we said before, so I say now again, if any man preach any other gospel unto you then that ye have received, let him be accursed. For do I now persuade men, or God? Or do I seek to please men? For if I yet pleased men, I should not be the servant of Christ. But I certify you, brethren that the gospel which was preached of me is not after man. For I neither received it of man, neither was I taught it, but by the revelation of Jesus Christ. (Galatians 1:1-12)
In v. 6-7 Paul was shocked at the Galatians defection from the gospel of God’s undeserved grace. The Galatians had unwittingly fallen for a different message.
In v. 8-9 Paul’s concern for the purity of the gospel message is revealed by his assertion that he would condemn to destruction anyone who taught a false gospel, including himself.
THE gospel of salvation is not SACRAMENTS is not LITURGY, is not THE WORSHIP OF THE EUCHARIST, is not WATER BAPTISM, not by INFANT BAPTISM, IS NOT DOING GOOD WORKS, not by SPEAKING IN TONGUES, is not PENANCE, IS NOT THE MASS, IS NOT BY WORSHIPING MARY, AND IS NOT A ROSARY and is NOT BY A PRIEST SAYING THE LAST RITES PRAYER, OR BY PURGATORY, not by KEEPING THE LAW(10 commandments) not by keeping the SABBATH, NOT BY CHURCH MEMBERSHIP, NOT BY FASTING, and your not saved by TITHING giving 10% to the church) or CONFESSION OF YOUR SINS TO A PRIEST.
IF ANY RELIGION OR CHURCH OR PERSON TEACHES OR ADDS ANYTHING TO THE GOSPEL OF OUR LORD AND SAVIOUR JESUS CHRIST TO BE SAVED, THEY AND ALL WHO BELIEVE IN THEM AND TRUST IN THEM ACCORDING TO THE APOSTLE PAUL THEY ARE ACCURSED.(damned).
Here are some religions that add to the GOSPEL for SALVATION. SEVENTH DAY ADVENTIST, EPISCOPAL CHURCH, JUDAISM, LUTHERANS, ANGLICANS, SOME PENTECOSTALS CHURCHES, CATHOLIC CHURCH.
Catholic’s
1. denies justification by faith, justification is conferred in baptism
2. There is no salvation outside the Roman church
3. Requires work done through the sacramental system in order for a person to be justified before God. 4. Worships Mary as well as other statues
5. water Baptism necessary for salvation and cleanses from sin.
6. Don’t believe in the bible alone
7. Belief in purgatory (purification) Jesus alone is not enough to purify sins.
8. Call the pope a Vicar of Christ, supreme pastor and teacher and has ultimate power over every soul.
JEHOVAH'S WITNESS
1. God is a person, not a trinity
2. Michael the archangel was created first and created all things through Michael.
3. The holy spirit is a force
4. Jesus was Michael the archangel who became a man.
5. Their church is the self-proclaimed prophet of God.
6. The soul ceases to exist after death
7. Only their church members will be saved.
Islam
1. The angel Gabriel brought the revelation of the Koran to Muhammad
2. The holy spirit is the angel Gabriel
3. Jesus was a great prophet but not the son of God, is not divine, was not crucified
4. Muhammad is Allah’s greatest and last prophet and his message supersedes all other past prophet’s including Jesus.
5. The Koran is Allah’s word. He literally spoke it to Gabriel who gave it to Muhammad.
Mormon’s
1. There are many God’s
2. God the Father has a father
3. The Holy Ghost is a personage of spirit, and as the father and son, is not omnipresent.
4. Jesus Christ atoned for the sins of mankind in the garden of Gethsemane, not on the cross alone.
5. They claim they can become Gods with all power, glory, dominion and knowledge the Father and Son have.
6. Joseph Smith had a vision from an angel of light to translate the bible correctly. there church stands on Joseph smiths teachings.
6. Has four standard of works that’s authoritative the bible (as far as it’s translated correctly) the book of Mormon, Doctrine & Covenants and The Pearl of great price.
Notice the religions started by an angel of light which Paul talked about to the Galatians and for the ages to come.
For such are false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming themselves into the apostles of Christ. And no marvel, For Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light. (2Corinthians 11:13-14) If anybody preaches anything other than Christ Crucified they are to be accursed. Meaning what saves is what Paul proclaims according to the scriptures. Paul also claims people will be judged by my gospel. “In the day when God shall judge the secrets of men, by Jesus Christ according to my gospel” (Romans 2:16). Paul’s gospel is Christ’s death, burial and resurrection according to the scriptures.
QUESTION: what about church tradition? is it not as true as the bible?
ANSWER: Every professed Christian church system in the land has their covenants and creeds. these are usually traditions handed down from their forefathers. Every cult is a product of extra biblical revelations, and other books that they add to the bible. The BIBLE is the only guide. JESUS said "man shall not live by bread alone but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of GOD." (Matthew 4:4). GOD put three guide posts in his WORD. He begins with, ADD NOT TO MY WORD" deut, 12:32. Then GOD repeats the same thing in( proverbs 30:5-6) Every word of GOD is PURE: he is a shield unto them that put THEIR TRUST IN HIM. ADD thou not unto his WORDS, least he REPROVE thee, and thou be FOUND A LIAR. revelations 22:18-19). FOR I testify unto EVERY MAN that heareth the words of the prophecy of this book, if any MAN shall ADD unto these things, GOD shall ADD unto him the PLAGUES THAT ARE WRITTEN IN THIS BOOK, and if any man shall TAKE away from the WORDS of the BOOK of this PROPHECY, GOD shall take away his part out of the BOOK OF LIFE, and out of the HOLY CITY, and from the things which are written in this BOOK.
TRADITIONS are mentioned in the bible, but not too FAVORABLY. Speaking to the religious leaders of his day, JESUS said, "making the WORD OF GOD of none effect through YOUR TRADITIONS, which you have delivered: and many such like things do you. "mark. 7:13. "BEWARE least any MAN SPOIL you through PHILOSOPHY and VAIN DECEIT, after the TRADITIONS OF MEN, AFTER THE RUDIMENTS OF THE WORLD, and not after CHRIST." Colossians 2:8.
THE bible declares that GOD has spoken to us in the last days BY HIS SON. (Hebrews. 1:2). holy men of GOD WROTE AS THEY WERE INSPIRED OF GOD. " ALL SCRIPTURE IS GIVEN BY INSPIRATION lit. GOD-breathed) of GOD and is profitable for DOCTRINE, for REPROOF, for CORRECTION, for INSTRUCTION IN RIGHTEOUSNESS: that the man of GOD may be PERFECT, thoroughly furnished unto ALL GOOD WORKS." 2 timothy 3:16-17. WE don't need traditions. read (2 peter 1:21).
DON'T put your TRUST in TRADITIONS; put your trust in the WORD OF THE LIVING GOD. Faith comes by HEARING and HEARING by the WORD OF GOD, not traditions). [romans.10:17] PEOPLE that trust in RELIGIOUS TRADITIONS are no better off than the PHARISEES and the HYPOCRITES of JESUS DAY.
their is no church or religion on the planet that can save your soul, it can only be found in a person a name above every name THE LORD JESUS CHRIST, only he can save your soul and give you eternal life, and belong to the one and only church that matters GODS CHURCH.
