AS OUR PLANET TURNS

 
As our planet turns, the voice from the graves becomes the voice from heaven. “As he journeyed he came near Damascus, and suddenly a light shone around him from heaven. Then he fell to the ground, and heard a voice saying to him, "Saul, Saul, why are you persecuting Me?" And he said, "Who are You, Lord?" Then the Lord said, "I am Jesus, whom you are persecuting. It [is] hard for you to kick against the goads." Acts 9:3-5. In Ephesians 2:8-9 Paul wrote, “For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; [it is] the gift of God, not of works, lest anyone should boast.” And in Galatians 2:16 Paul wrote, "Knowing that a man is not justified by the works of the law but by faith in Jesus Christ, even we have believed in Christ Jesus, that we might be justified by faith in Christ and not by the works of the law; for by the works of the law no flesh shall be justified.” 
Jesus said, "Do not think that I came to destroy the Law or the Prophets. I did not come to destroy but to fulfill.” Matthew 5:17. Ten Commandments, Deuteronomy 5:6-21. Does God contradict Himself? No, God does not contradict Himself.
He gave the Ten Commandments for us to keep and to observe. Any suggestion that suggests that we might be justified by faith in Christ and not by the works of the law; for by the works of the law no flesh shall be justified” does not come from God. The apostle James said, “You see then that a man is justified by works, and not by faith only.” James 2:24. How do I know that? Because 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. Where can you find the will of Jesus’ Father if not in His LAW? Galatians 2:16 are the words of Paul. Matthew 7:21 are Jesus’ words. Bet nothing on the words of Paul if you are SMART. God help us to be smart.
"Many will say to Me on that day, `Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in Your name, cast out demons in Your name, and done many wonders in Your name?' "And then I will declare to them, `I never knew you; depart from Me, you who practice lawlessness!'” Matthew 7:22-23. Follow Paul if you want to have lots of money. And I guarantee you that Satan will follow you until you take your last breath! 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. Look at Adam and Eve. Why did God take eternal life away from them? Because they did not do the will of Jesus’ Father. They disobeyed God. 
I believe that the Ten Commandments is the minimal requirement that God requires from us. There may be other psychological theories that we may add to enhance the psychological value of the Law from a human perspective, but nothing less. I hope this article helps my readers in understanding the will of Jesus’ Father better. God bless.
