The Broken Church of Today

A "Church" that Preaches no Repentance or Obedience,
  Participates in "Trophy Salvation" where everyone gets one,
    Likely Exults the Culture over Christ,
      And DOES NOT Grasp the Weight of the Cross.
But He was wounded for our transgressions,
  He was bruised for our iniquities:
      the chastisement of our peace was upon Him;
        and with His stripes we are healed.
by the washing of regeneration....
And from Jesus Christ, ... the first begotten of the dead,
....Unto Him that loved us,
--and washed us from our sins in His own blood.
--For ye are bought with a price....
Isaiah 53:5/Revelation 1:5/1 Corinthians 6:20

Only 2 Garden Options for the Garden of YOUR Heart

My doctrine shall drop as the rain,
My speech shall distil as the dew,
as the small rain upon the tender herb,
and as the showers upon the grass:
For as the rain cometh down, and the snow from heaven,
and returneth not thither,
but watereth the earth,
and maketh it bring forth and bud,
that it may give seed to the sower, and bread to the eater:
*For the earth which drinketh in the rain that cometh oft upon it, and bringeth forth herbs meet for them by whom it is dressed, receiveth blessing from God:
*But that which beareth thorns and briers is rejected, and is nigh unto cursing; whose end is to be burned.
Deuteronomy 32:2/Isaiah 55:10/Hebrews 6:7,8

Truth about the Doctrine of the Immortality of the Soul

These things said He: and after that He saith unto them, Our friend Lazarus sleepeth; but I go, that I may awake him out of sleep. John 11:11

"The doctrine of the immortality of the soul is something
indispensable to almost every prominent erroneous religious system

--
All or nearly all the gods of heathenism are believed to be dead men who were turned into gods by dying.
--
Catholicism is indebted to this doctrine for all its saints who are believed to be mediators with God.
--
Spiritualism is simply the embodiment of this doctrine of natural immortality."

4 Ways God Reveals Himself to us

"God has revealed Himself in four ways.
First is creation: people can perceive that everything made and all that sustains their day-to-day lives must have come from a marvelous and powerful Creator.
For the invisible things of Him since the creation of the world
are clearly seen, being perceived through the things that are made, even His everlasting power and divinity;
that they may be without excuse.
Romans 1:20 HNV
Second is conscience, allowing people to realize that some of what we observe around us—things like sorrow, suffering, and deathare not as they ought to be
This suggests a standard 
--of right and wrong, 
--of good and evil, 
and hints that it originated from Someone other than us.
Since they thought it foolish to acknowledge God,
He abandoned them to their foolish thinking
and let them do things that should never be done.
Romans 1:28 NLT
Third is the person and work of Christ, who as God’s perfect image in human form taught us about who God is and accomplished salvation from sin and death for us when we were helpless to do anything for ourselves.
Hath in these last days spoken unto us by His Son,....
Who being the brightness of His glory,
and the express image of His person,...
Hebrews 1:2,3
And finally, God reveals Himself in Scripture, describing His plan for all of creation throughout the course of history, until things are once again restored and His children can live together with Him in harmony, fullness, and perfection.
Blessed is he that readeth,
and they that hear the words of this prophecy,
and keep those things which are written therein:
Revelation 1:3."
AIG

Your Duty

 
"As the ten commandments contain the whole duty of man, -----Let us hear the conclusion of the whole matter: Fear (RESPECT) God, and keep His commandments: for this is the whole duty of man. 
Ecclesiastes 12:13."

THE CONTROVERSY ENDS

--
In My Father's house are many mansions: if it were not so,
I would have told you. 
I go to prepare a place for you.
--And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes;
and there shall be no more death,
neither sorrow,
nor crying,
neither shall there be any more pain:
for the former things are passed away.
--The LORD thy God in the midst of thee is mighty;...
He will joy over thee with singing.
--And He said unto me,
It is done.
I am Alpha and Omega,
the beginning and the end.
I will give unto him that is athirst of the fountain of the water of life freely.
John 14:2/Revelation 21:4,6/Zephaniah 3:17

DEATH

--DEATH--
[God's Answer: In the Dust]
[Lucifer's Answer: Immortal like gods]
But man dieth, and wasteth away:
yea, man giveth up the ghost, 
Q: and where is he?
A: And many of them that sleep in the dust of the earth shall awake,
 some to everlasting life,
and some to shame and everlasting contempt.
So man lieth down, and riseth not:
till the heavens be no more,
they shall not awake, nor be raised out of their sleep.

For the living know that they shall die:
but the dead know not any thing....

Q: When are they raised from the dead?
A: For the Lord Himself shall descend from heaven with a shout,
with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first:
Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord.


Q: How did your first parents have eternal life?
A: Access to the Tree of Life:
Q: But then what happened?

God said, Behold, the man is become as one of Us, to know good and evil: and now, lest he put forth his hand, and take also of the tree of life, and eat, and live for ever: So He drove out the man; and He placed at the east of the garden of Eden Cherubims, and a flaming sword which turned every way, to keep the way of the tree of life.
Access to be Restored:
In the midst of the street of it, and on either side of the river, was there the tree of life, which bare twelve manner of fruits, and yielded her fruit every month.....Blessed are they that do His commandments, that they may have right to the tree of life, and may enter in through the gates into the city.
Q: Where are the dead in the meantime?
A: All go unto one place;
all are of the dust, 
and all turn to dust again.
btw, Natural Immortality of the soul was the FIRST LIE ever uttered on earth:
EVE: And the woman said unto the serpent,
We may eat of the fruit of the trees of the garden:
But of the fruit of the tree which is in the midst of the garden, God hath said, Ye shall not eat of it, neither shall ye touch it, lest ye die.
The Serpent (Lucifer): And the serpent said unto the woman, Ye shall not surely die: For God doth know that in the day ye eat thereof, then your eyes shall be opened and ye shall be as gods....

SUMMARY by The Apostle Paul: ....the King of kings and Lord of lords—He alone is immortal and dwells in unapproachable light.
Job 14:10/Daniel 12:2/Ecclesiastes 9:5/Job 14:12/1 Thessalonians 4:16,17/Genesis 3:22,24/Revelation 22:2,14/Ecclesiastes 3:20/Genesis 3:2-5/1Timothy 6:15,16

FOLLOW

"We should follow our Lord 
---as unhesitatingly as sheep follow their shepherd, 
---for He has a right to lead us wherever He pleases. 
Often might our Lord say to us as to Peter, What is that to thee? Follow thou Me. John 21:22.
Charles Spurgeon

On the Cross: Christ -- zig zagging through the Sanctuary

  

Christ walked into the outer court to the Altar of Sacrifice (that was for the Forgiveness of sins) and said Father Forgive Them.
He then proceeded to the Brazen Laver (representing Baptism) and said Today thou shalt be with Me in paradise, as He was about go through the Baptism of Death.
He then entered the inner court and went to the Table of Bread (that contained the cups for the drink offering) and said I thirst.
He then crossed over to the 7 Branch Candlestick and said Woman,
Behold Thy Son.
He then went to the Altar of Incense (representing the Prayers of God's people) and communed with the Father -- My God, My God, Why hast Thou Forsaken Me?
He then entered the Most Holy Place and approached the Ark of the Covenant (where the Law of God was placed -- the Law that requires complete submission) and uttered a Prayer of total submission Father into Thy Hands I commit My spirit.
Finally, He climbed up on the Judgment Seat and gave a decree while wearing a Crown of Thorns -- It Is Finished.
Then He bowed His head and gave up the ghost.
