The Labels that the World will give!

It is amazing what kind of labels people will give to others these days- Here are some examples:-

Against Islam - "Islamophobic or racists" ~ Against Homosexuality  "Homophobic" ~ Against same sex marriage "A bigot" ~ Against evil (what God calls evil) "A hateful person"

But if you are against Christianity, the world will not say you are a 'Christophobic' ~ Here are some other examples~

Against 'Heterosexuality only' - Never a "Heterophobic" ~ Against traditional marriage (biblical marriage) - "Never a bigot" ~ Against godliness (what God calls godliness) "Never a hateful person."

You notice this world calls evil 'good' and 'good' evil. The Bible talks about this in Isaiah 5:20.

1. The Bible is against all other religions (Galatians 1:8,9 & 2John 1:9,10 &  1John 5,10-12) because they go against the testimony of God about His Son, and teaches another god and another gospel, but the world will call you for example, an 'Islamophobic' if you are against Islam.

2. The Bible is against Homosexuality and is sinful in the eyes of God (Romans 1:24-27), but the world will call you a 'Homophobic' - The Bible is also against all sexual immorality, and only marriage (one man and one woman) is honourable in all, and the bed undefiled (Hebrews 13:4 & Romans 1:29)

3. The Bible is against same sex marriage. The Bible teaches one man and one woman (Genesis 2:22-25 & 1Corinthians 7:2 & Matthew 19:4-6 & Mark 10:6-9) , but the world will call you 'a bigot'

4. The Bible is against evil [what God calls evil] (Romans 1:28-32 & Revelation 21:8), but the world will call you 'an hateful person.'

It is clear that the world is calling Jesus all these labels mentioned above (a bigot, hateful person, Islamophobic, homophobic and so on)  The reason~  The Bible is His Word- When the Bible speaks about these issues, God speaks. The Bible is not God, but the Bible is the Word of God, and God and His Word (the Bible) are inseparable.

Easy Apologetics 2

If you believe in evolution, you have to believe that there was a time when there was nothing, and that nothing became something (you have to). How does nothing become something when there is nothing there? There is nothing there for something to come from. Something does not come from nothing. Somebody who believes in evolution, has to believe that something (no matter how far they would like to go back) came from nothing, otherwise a person could ask, 'Where did that come from?' Evolution is a lie from the father of lies, the devil.

But, when you believe in the truth of the Bible, you can see that the Eternal God (The God of the Bible), who has always been, created all creation. There will people who will say, 'Who created God?' The simple answer is no one created God, otherwise He would not be God. The Creator is never created otherwise He would not be the Creator, but the created. God has always been and He will always will be. Creation needs a Creator, like a watch needs a watch-maker.

The True Word of God (The Bible) says about the One True God (The God of the Bible), Before the mountains were brought forth, or even thou hadst formed the earth and the world, even from everlasting to everlasting, thou art God. (Psalm 90:2) KJV

God is Love!

Muslims believe in a god called 'allah' (a false god), who is NOT three persons, but one god. Christians believe in the true God. We believe in God, who is three persons, but One God. In the Bible, the Holy Scriptures teach that God is love. The Lord God is eternal, and is Love. When you put eternal and love together, The Eternal God who is Love MUST have always Loved, and never been a time when God never loved.

When you come to the muslim god, who is not three persons, but one god, who did he love before all creation? There would not have been anyone to love. Then how can he be the Eternal God who is Love?

When you come to the true God, the God of the Bible, who is three persons (The Father, and the Son, and the Holy Ghost), but One God, who did God love before creation? Each person (who are distinct) who are the same God loved each other. The Father loved the Son, the Son loved the Father, the Father loved the Holy Ghost and so forth. And because each person are the One true God, they have loved each other for all eternity, which means there has never been a time when the God of Love has never loved. Praise the true God! The God of the Bible.

Easy Apologetics

When somebody says, 'There is no absolute truth' then you can simply ask them, 'Is that the absolute truth (what they have just said)?' If they say, 'Yes', they have just contradicted what they have just said, because they have just said there is no absolute truth, and if they say, 'No', then ask them how can I believe (as a absolute truth), 'There is no absolute truth', when you just said, 'There is no absolute truth?'

He is Before All things

The Jehovah witnesses is a cult, and preach false doctrines about the Lord Jesus Christ, and the right way to expose their false doctrines is with the Bible (the Word of God). They believe that Jesus Christ is a created being (the first of Jehovah's creation) and assisted Him in creation. They believe that Jesus was created as Michael the archangel.

I want us to look in the Bible to expose this heresy, and show that Jesus Christ is the Creator. In the book of Colossians 1:14-15 KJV, the Bible says, 'In whom we have redemption through his blood, even the forgiveness of sins: Who is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of every creature:

The Jehovah's Witnesses will point out that the Bible says, 'The firstborn of every creature,' without taking the verse in its context. The problem when you do not take a verse in its context, you can come up with all false interpretations, and false doctrines.

Let us continue with the next two verses, and take these verses in the context they should be taken. The Bible says in Colossians 1:16-17 KJV, 'For by him were all things created, that are in  heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers: all things were created by him, and for him: And he is before all things, and by him all things consist.'

When you take these verses in context, you can see what the apostle Paul writes here. He writes, 'the firstborn of every creature, For by him were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers: all things were created by him, and for him: And he is before all things, and by him all things consist.

The Bible says, ' The firstborn of every creature' and 'all things created by him and for him:'.  He is before creation, and creation comes from Him. How do we know? For by him were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers: all things were created by him, and for him: The Lord Jesus created 'all things' and this means 'all things' (this is clearly shown in v. 16)-  which means, He is the Creator, who is eternal, thus, He is before all creation (creation comes from Him). You cannot have a creator of all created things and be created, that is a contradiction in terms.  The Bible teaches that Jesus is the Creator of Michael the archangel, and NOT created as Michael the archangel.  

In verse 17, the Bible states: And he is before all things, continues to reveal His (Jesus) sovereignty. And then Paul writes, 'and by him all things consist - Not only does Paul write that Jesus Christ is the creator of all things, but He is the maintainer of all things, and this is clear here in Colossians 1:15-17.

Ye MUST be Born Again!

The Jehovah's Witnesses believe that only 144,000 are born again, who will spead eternity with God in heaven. The rest of the Jehovah Witnesses are not born again. Never be surprised if you come across a Jehovah's Witness who tells you they are not born again (the funny thing is that they are right). They are not born again because they are seperate from God, and need God. They believe the Jehovah's Witnesses outside the 144,000, if they survive to the appointed time, will spend eternity on a paradise earth. The problem with this doctrine of the 144,000 born again ones, the Bible nowhere teaches this; it is nowhere to be found in the Bible. Let us look at scripture, and expose their false doctrine.

In the Bible, in John 3:3 KJV, the Lord Jesus spoke to a man called Nicodemus. The Lord Jesus spoke, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God. Then, we notice in the next verse that Nicodemus didn't understand Jesus' teachings. Then in v.5, Jesus speaks, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the Kingdom of God. Then in v.6, Jesus speaks, That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit. Then in v.7, Marvel not that I said unto thee, Ye must be born again.

When a person is born physically, they are born with a sinful nature, born a sinner- The Bible says in Romans 5:12 KJV, Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for all have sinned. When a person is born, they are seperate from God; they are without the Holy Spirit, which means they are spiritually dead.

But when a person comes to the Lord Jesus Christ (repentance toward God, and faith in the Lord Jesus Christ), that person is born again. The Holy Spirit comes and lives and dwells within the believer (see 1Corinthians 6:19)- this means the person is no longer seperate from God, his or her spirit is no longer seperated from the Holy Spirit. They are no longer seperated from God, but now hath a relationship with God. The believer hath been literally born again from above (of God); they hath had a spiritual birth; they have been quickened, made alive (see Eph. 2:1). The Bible teaches the believer hath been begotten of the Father, which means been 'born again' (see 1Peter 1:3). The person becomes a child of God. The Bible teaches that the believer have been adopted to the position of sons of God (see Eph. 1:5 & Gal. 4:5-6), and become joint heirs with Christ (see Rom. 8:17). You are made a new creature (see 2Corinthians 5:17). That is what Jesus meant when He said, 'Ye must be born again.'

Now, let us apply this to what Jesus spoke about worshipping God. The Lord taught that God is Spirit, and must be worshipped in spirit and truth (see John 4:24). Now, according to the Jehovah's Witnesses, outside the 144,000, no other has been born again. How does then a Jehovah's Witnesses worship the Lord in spirit and in truth when they have not been born again? If they have not been born again, they do not have the Holy Spirit within them, which means they are still in the same state as when they had their physical birth. They are still seperate from God because they have not the Spirit of God within them. They are still spiritually dead. How can they worship God? You cannot worship God in spirit and in truth and be seperate from God (spiritually dead). How can you worship in spirit, when you are spiritually dead- It is impossible because that which is in the flesh cannot worship God who is Spirit.

But when a person is born again that all changes. That person is made spiritually alive (never to be seperated from God again). The Holy Spirit lives within that person, and has relationship with God. That person now can worship God in spirit and in truth. You must have a second birth (a spiritual birth to be able to worship God) and this is only found 'In Christ'.

In Romans 8:8-9 KJV, we witness that without the Spirit of Christ (the Holy Spirit) you are not His (Jesus). Now, understand by their doctrine, they have not the Spirit because they have not been born again, so they must be still in the flesh. Jesus said, 'that which is born of the flesh is flesh, and that which is born if the Spirit is spirit'. So if they have not been born of the Spirit, they must still be in the flesh. What does the Bible speak in Romans 8:8 KJV, 'So then they that are in the flesh cannot please God.' Being in the flesh and not having the Spirit, there is nothing they can do to please God, that is simple.

Now let us read the next verse; Romans 8:9 KJV, 'But ye are not in the flesh, but in the Spirit (speaks of believers), if be so that the Spirit of God (Holy Spirit) dwell in you. Now if any man have not the Spirit of Christ (Holy Spirit), he is none of his (Jesus).

Notice what the Bible says, 'Now if any man have not the Spirit of Christ, he is none of his.' When does a person receive the Spirit of Christ? When a person is born again. What does that mean? It means that all persons who are not born again have not the Spirit of Christ, and do not belong to Jesus Christ (he is none of his). What does that mean? If you are none of His, then you do not have salvation. There is no salvation outside the Lord Jesus Christ (see John 14:6). What the Jehovah's Witnesses teach about the 144,000 is heresy. The Lord Jesus Christ says in His Word, 'Ye must be born again.'

As we can see with the Jehovah's Witnesses doctrine about being born again, it does not line up with the Word of God. It contradicts the Word of God because they believed not in the God of the Bible. When they speak, 'I am not born again', they are really telling you they are not saved, but they do not see it. They are lost, and they need the Lord Jesus. They need the Lord to open up their spiritual blindness, to be able to see the truth.

Is Repentance and Faith like choosing from a Menu?

I was listening to a preacher and he preached on 1Thessalonians 1:4, where the Bible says, knowing brothers, beloved by God, your election. ...
