Why are people always saying God has unconditional covenants? God told the Israelite's he would let them have the promised land IF they believe in Him and Obeyed him. And he told the world that he will forgive our sins and give us eternal life IF we believe on the Lord Jesus Christ. If we do not believe, God has not broken a covenant by taking eternal life from us or sending us to hell. In that instance, we would have broken the covenenat by not upholding our end.

The Bible is clear that you MUST believe on the Lord Jesus Christ to be saved. Jesus Christ died for ALL people and ALL people will be saved IF they believe on the Lord Jesus Christ. The Bible is clear that if one denies Jesus Christ, then they will not have eternal life.
Praise the Lord that he has saved a sinner like me, someone who was once a mouthpiece for the Devil himself and doer of evil deeds. Praise the Lord that if I believe in my heart and confess with my mouth that Jesus Christ is Lord then he wil save me from my sins, and He is even helping to better control my sinful desires and is patient and faithful to help me overcome the flesh and the world. All those who call on the name of the Lord shall be saved.

The serpents seed or offspring ! 2

The serpents seed or offspring ! 2

The serpents seed are those of mankind who did not share in Adam's transgression Rom 5:14

14 Nevertheless death reigned from Adam to Moses, even over them that had not sinned after the similitude of Adam's transgression, who is the figure of him that was to come.

Thats the serpent seed, death reigned over them even though they were not involved in Adam's Transgression ! They [serpents seed] were never charged with Adam's sin, but so how is it that they did incur guilt and punishment and are most certainly subject to eternal damnation as serpents here Matt 23:32-33

32 Fill ye up then the measure of your fathers.

33 Ye serpents, ye generation of vipers, how can ye escape the damnation of hell?

Its because they sinned in their father the devil Jn 8:44

44 Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it.

1 Jn 3:8

8 He that committeth sin is of the devil; for the devil sinneth from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that he might destroy the works of the devil.

The devil therefore was their father, federal head and represenative, yes the devil or the serpent acted in their name and persons, whenever he sinned in the beginning 1 Jn 3:8, and we know that he had a seed, descendants, posterity, offspring by the express words of God to him Gen 3:14-15

14 And the Lord God said unto the serpent, Because thou hast done this, thou art cursed above all cattle, and above every beast of the field; upon thy belly shalt thou go, and dust shalt thou eat all the days of thy life:

15 And I will put enmity between thee and the woman, and between thy seed and her seed; it shall bruise thy head, and thou shalt bruise his heel.

And so as Father Adam was responsible for his seed's transgression, sin, so likewise the devil, the serpent was responsible for his seeds transgression.

Note: God does not need to use the physical to give a father a seed, He can just will it so by His Divine Ability as stated here Matt 3:8

9 And think not to say within yourselves, We have Abraham to our father: for I say unto you, that God is able of these stones to raise up children unto Abraham.

And so God has raised up children of the devil ! 1 Jn 3:10

In this the children of God are manifest, and the children of the devil: whosoever doeth not righteousness is not of God, neither he that loveth not his brother.

Justice of God demands Life ! 2

Justice of God demands Life ! 2

So since God's Justice cannot and will not punish again those He has already eternally punished with death [wages of sin] without it being Injustice, then His Justice must cause all for whom Christ died, and by that did satisfy Law and Justice for, His Justice causes them to believe it, so they are said to be given to believe on Him, that is on His behalf Phil 1:29

29 For unto you it is given in the behalf of Christ, not only to believe on him, but also to suffer for his sake;

Its given in His behalf because it was He that satisfied God's Law and Justice on your behalf, if indeed he died for us !

Yes believing on Christ is a matter of God's Justice Rom 3:26

To declare, I say, at this time his righteousness: that he might be just, and the justifier of him which believeth in Jesus.

So Justice of God for those Christ died for, His Justice for them demands Life and Faith given them, on behalf of Christ !

False teaching !

False teaching !

Those who falsely teach that God holds those already condemned who don't believe in Christ Jn 3:18, but yet they are some for whom Christ died, they deny a cardinal Gospel Truth, that of non imputation 2 Cor 5:19, as well as they make God to be Unjust, because for God to hold condemned any sinner whom Christ died, regardless of their spiritual condition, to hold them condemned, guilty, liable to punishment, even after He has received by Christ's blood a total satisfaction, propitiation for their sins 1 Jn 2:2, makes Him Unjust as well as disregard and contempt, and betrayal for His Own Sons Blood !

False teaching ! 2

False teaching ! 2

God would not only be Unjust to punish anyone Christ died for, but He would be in gross violation of Christ's Suretyship who was made a Surety of a better Covenant Heb 7:22

22 By so much was Jesus made a surety of a better testament or covenant.

Christ was made a Surety in the better covenant, the everlasting covenant Heb 13:20 made before the foundation of the world, and it cost Him His Own Blood in Time ! Now as Surety He agreed to pay the sin debt in regard to all for whom He died, those given to Him by the Father for that purpose. He agreed to be responsible for all their debt against God's Law and Justice, a debt they could not have paid , but yet they did accrue through Adam and accumulated in their own persons, all against the Glory of God Rom 3:23

23 For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;

They had the debt against God's Glory, but Christ as Surety had agreed to pay it. Its Illustrated, Suretyship, by the book of Philemon with the events in that Book. Philemon had a runaway servant that had stolen from him name Onesimus, whom God had caused he and Paul to meet at a prison and whom Paul preached Christ to, and Onesimus became a believer. Now Onesimus was being sent back to Philemon and Paul asked Philemon to be gracious unto him, and stated in Vs 18

If he hath wronged thee, or oweth thee ought, put that on mine account;

And he added Vs 19a

I Paul have written it with mine own hand, I will repay it:

This is the language of both imputation and Suretyship ! Now if Philemon was in agreement with Paul, and Onesimus did owe him something, he would no longer recognize Onesimus as his debtor but Paul. Even if Onesimus did not believe it, that could not the annul agreement suretyship that Philemon had struck hands with Paul regarding !

Philemon would be unjust to accept the agreement with Paul, then turn around and expect payment for the debt from Onesimus !

However for all false teachers that teach that anyone Christ died for shall yet fall victim to God's Divine Justice in the Day of Wrath, they are guilty of imputing this Injustice to God's account !

Salvation by Grace is Election of Grace !

Salvation by Grace is Election of Grace !

Salvation by Grace, is simply Election of Grace, and its to the praise of the Glory of God's Grace Eph 1:3-6

Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who hath blessed us with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ:

4 According as he hath chosen us in him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before him in love:

5 Having predestinated us unto the adoption of children by Jesus Christ to himself, according to the good pleasure of his will,

6 To the praise of the glory of his grace, wherein he hath made us accepted in the beloved.

Understand something, If we do not believe the U in Tulip, Unconditional Election, discriminating Election of Grace, then we do not believe in Salvation by Grace, no matter how much we quote Eph 2:8 !

Here we have the Election of Grace Rom 11:5

Even so then at this present time also there is a remnant according to the election of grace.

Where both Grace and Election are mentioned, and also here in Eph 1 we have Chosen Vs 4 and Grace Vs 6 mentioned !

Salvation as a Result of God having Elected us or Chosen us by Grace !

Justified solely by the blood of Christ ! Pt 1

Justified solely by the blood of Christ ! Pt 1

That is what all false religion denies, it is what all the man of sin religions denie, and that is Justification before God is an accomplished fact, solely by the Blood of Christ, apart from anything else !

Rom 5:9

9 Much more then, being now justified by his blood, we shall be saved from wrath through him.

Now to understand this blessed Truth [being Justified by the blood of Christ alone] lets clear up the darken counsel[Job 38:2] that false teachers have put upon Rom 5:1

Therefore being justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ:

False teachers maketh this to say that a person is Justified [before God] by their doing or act of faith / believing, and that before so acting, and regardless of the fact that Christ has shed His Blood for them, that those Christ died for, before God, are in a unjustified state, and a condemned state , which notion is antichrist !

For as will be shown, all for whom He died are Justified by His blood alone [before God] and that before believing, and while unbelievers !

Justified solely by the blood of Christ ! Pt 2

Now focusing back on Rom 5:1

Therefore being justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ:

It is good to know that in the original, the punctuation is not inspired but added by the translators, So if Rom 5:1 had the comma after the word Justified, it would read Rom 5:1

Therefore being justified, by faith we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ:

And so the fact that all for whom Christ died, had previously been Justified [by another], that is what is received by Faith, hence its from Faith to Faith Rom 1:17

16 For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.

17 For therein is the righteousness of God revealed from faith to faith: as it is written, The just shall live by faith.

Now how do we know that this is the correct sense and understanding ? Because scripture should elucidate scripture, now the word Justified in Rom 5:1 is the greek word dikaioō a verb and means:

I.
to render righteous or such he ought to be

II.
to show, exhibit, evince, one to be righteous, such as he is and wishes himself to be considered

III.
to declare, pronounce, one to be just, righteous, or such as he ought to be

And so it means to render righteous, to declare to be righteous ! And so as you can see, this being Justified in Rom 5:1 goes beyone a mere acquittal of guilt, but adds with it the blessed benefit of being declared righteous [before God].

Justified solely by the blood of Christ ! Pt 3

Now in another place in the same passage of Rom 5, Paul states that those Christ died for , by that alone obedience of his unto death, this is true Rom 5:19b

19 For as by one man's disobedience many were made sinners, so by the obedience of one shall many be made righteous.

Which corresponds perfectly with Rom 5:9, having been Justified by Christ's blood alone, as it is in Rom 5:19, So by His one act of obedience alone, shedding His Blood, with these facts in mind, the proper rendering of Rom 5:1 would be better suited to overall context and truth and consistency , would read better as Rom 5:1

Therefore being justified or having been Justified, by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ:

Again, the Peace with God comes not through our faith, but through Jesus Christ, His Obedience unto death, even to the shedding of His Blood !

A important difference from law Salvation and Gospel Salvation of Grace, that of the Law demands a Righteousness to be in man of his own Phil 3:9

9 And be found in him, not having mine own righteousness, which is of the law, but that which is through the faith of Christ, the righteousness which is of God by faith:

Whereas the Gospel informs and reveals to Faith that a Righteousness of another, Even Jesus 1 Cor 1:30 has been charged to our account Rom 1:16-17

16 For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.

17 For therein is the righteousness of God revealed from faith to faith: as it is written, The just shall live by faith.

The Law demands a righteousness from man, the Gospel reveals a Righteousness to man , to God given Faith from the New Birth !

What is the curse of the Law ?

What is the curse of the Law ?

Gal 3:10

10 For as many as are of the works of the law are under the curse: for it is written, Cursed is every one that continueth not in all things which are written in the book of the law to do them.

Many things can be said about what is the curse of the Law, but one thing in particular will be highlighted, being under the curse of the law, is when in our thinking, after all is said and done, we view our Justification before God [from the penalty of sin] to have been accomplished in some sense, no matter how minute, that in some sense it was conditioned upon the sinner, something done by the sinner ! Once we conclude that we must perform a condition /requirement, then it is we fall from Faith and Grace as stipulated here Gal 3:12

12 And the law is not of faith: but, The man that doeth them shall live in them.

Simply saying, if us meeting a condition to be Justified before God is required, then thats not Faith Justification ! This is True because Faith informs or reveals to us Justification, not demand a conditioned to be performed !

We cannot say that we are Justified before God by Faith, when at the same time we are demanding faith to be a condition we do in order to get Justified before God, then we have departed from Faith and Grace Justification which the Bible Teaches.

Now all men by nature think this way, but those Christ has died for, they are delivered from the curse of the Law and that thinking Gal 3:13, and in due time in this life it will be made evident !

So the curse of the Law is a continued thinking that Justification before God is somehow, some way conditioned upon the performance of the sinner , and such sinners are bound to do the whole Law in all things if they ever have hope of Justification before God, and that apart from Christ !

Amen! I believe that if any has not had their Justification revealed to them by Faith alone,
then their conversion is false, no matter what their false religion teaches.

For Faith is a gift and fruit of the Holy Spirit; a reality and strong assurance
in one's very soul (without him ever performing any act), of his Justification before God.
One having this Faith is the evidence of genuinely being Born from Above!
