THE CROSS

  Readers, we already know there is no saving power in the thief on the cross, none. It was a misunderstanding. Now I am going to show to you that there's no saving power in the cross either. A cross can save no one. What then can save us? Jesus said, "Not everyone who says to Me, `Lord, Lord,' shall enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father in heaven. “ Matthew 7:21. There is no saving power in the cross. The saving power comes when we listen to Jesus , the Man who was once crucified on the cross, and when we do what He says. Remember the Lord’s prayer? “ Now it came to pass, as He was praying in a certain place, when He ceased, [that] one of His disciples said to Him, "Lord, teach us to pray, as John also taught his disciples." So He said to them, "When you pray, say: Our Father in heaven, hallowed be Your name. Your kingdom comes. Your will be done on earth as [it is] in heaven.” Luke 11:1-2. Whose will be done ? The will of ...

THE THIEF ON THE CROSS

  The article that I want to write today is about the thief on the cross. “ Then one of the criminals who were hanged blasphemed Him, saying, "If You are the Christ, save Yourself and us." But the other, answering, rebuked him, saying, "Do you not even fear God, seeing you are under the same condemnation? "And we indeed justly, for we receive the due reward of our deeds; but this Man has done nothing wrong." Then he said to Jesus, "Lord, remember me when You come into Your kingdom." And Jesus said to him, "Assuredly, I say to you, today you will be with Me in Paradise." Luke 23:39-43. Readers, before I say much more about Luke 23:39-43 I want to assure you that the only thief on the cross that Jesus will save based on his faith is the thief described in Luke 23:39-43. No other thief will be saved, none. Why? Because the thief on the cross is dying. He has no time to repent. That’s why Jesus saved him before he died.  All thieves are n...

I COULD NOT UNDERSTAND

  I could not understand why there are so many God haters and Paul lovers here on earth. And then I found the answer. "You shall have no other gods before Me. "You shall not make for yourself a carved image, or any likeness [of anything] that [is] in heaven above, or that [is] in the earth beneath, or that [is] in the water under the earth; you shall not bow down to them nor serve them. For I, the LORD your God, [am] a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers on the children to the third and fourth [generations] of those who hate Me, but showing mercy to thousands, to those who love Me and keep My commandments." Exodus 5:3-6. Many Christians all over the world have a carved image of Saul of Tarsus in their head as their god and serve him instead of serving the Father of Jesus. In Matthew 7:21 Jesus said, "Not everyone who says to Me, `Lord, Lord,' shall enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father in heaven.“ Do most Christians ...
