WORK OUT YOUR SALVATION

A short article specially for gentiles—

Through this article ISRAEL should learn that WE SHOULD DEPART FROM INIQUITY, 2 Tim 2: 19, Ro 6: 6, ONCE YOU ARE SAVED BY THE BAPTIZM UNTO LORD’S DEATH, Ro 6: 3-7.

Eze. 39:6-- And I will send a fire on Magog, and among them that dwell carelessly in the isles: and they shall know that I am the LORD.

Those in isles should notice that vs. and the vs. below—Php 2: 12!

Work out your own salvation with fear and trembling;-- Php 2:12

In the LORD’S PRAYER, we seek forgiveness as we forgive others. LORD leads us to repentance in His goodness, Ro 2: 4.

Just as He led gentiles’ for their work in the end time, Re 11: 2-4, He would ordain ISRAEL their work very shortly. That means He would bring ISRAEL to see Him pierced, Re 1:7 , Joh 19:37, Zec 12:10, that is  He would bring them to repentance.

Therefore----

All ISRAEL would be saved, Ro 11: 26, and none would remain in captivity, Eze. 39: 28,29.—

then Php 2: 12 (working out your own salvation), could be for gentiles who had fallen!

If anyone thinks godliness is a means of gains, and found arguing, we are to turn away from them—1 Tim 6: 3-5. if they have a form of godliness but deny it’s power, turn away from them, 2 Tim 3: 3-5,  (ungodliness include-- unloving, unforgiving, slanderers, without self–control, brutal, despisers of good,  traitors, headstrong, haughty, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God,) .

God teaches these, how?

Ro 10:14 --how shall they hear without a preacher?

Noah was a preacher of Righteousness, (Noah loved Righteousness and therefore he was saved with his family)---2Pe 2:5, Paul was a preacher to gentiles--1Ti 2:7  for which I was appointed a preacher and an apostle-- 2Ti 1:11-- a teacher of the Gentiles.

Therefore we are to be admonished by words of Paul—Paul wrote--

• Learn the lesson that those who were to be led by faith could fall , 1 Tim 4: 1, and we know that it had happened. We are scattered!---each of us should examine!

Ro 14:4  Who art thou that judgest another man’s servant? to his own master he standeth or falleth. Yea, he shall be holden up: for God is able to make him stand.

We should be mindful that the good LORD could make anyone stand who are fallen, LORD looks at the heart! At the same time, Re 21: 8, 22: 14,15, Isa 66: 24 are against anyone who would not repent!

Here is a checklist-

• To be saved you should be baptized to the name of JESUS CHRIST, Ro 6: 3-7.
• Now if any man have not the Spirit of Christ, He is none of his, Ro 8:9—His spirit is words that gives life, Jn 6: 63, and we are to abide in Him and His life giving words, Joh 15:7. when you get newness of life through Baptizm of Ro 6: 3-7, you would be given knowledge of His spirit, THE LIFE GIVING WORDS WOULD TEACH YOU HOW TO DEPART FROM INQUITY, 2 Tim 2; 19, Ro 6: 6, and how to discern good from evil, because LORD would give you STRONG MEAT, Heb 5: 14.  
• Consider how many years, your time , tithes and offerings you had contributed, ---do you realize what a great loss it would be if you miss it.
• Even though you were saved through blood, Eph 2: 13,  you could be found that you had departed from faith, -- if you had listened to others and not eaten God’s sanctified food, says 1 Tim 4:1-3 (sanctified food is LORD’S bread of life, and water of life, - Re 21:6----and living water would be given through hearts of believers,-- Joh 7:38  "He who believes in Me, as the Scripture has said, out of his heart will flow rivers of living water."---one has to identify who believes JESUS CHRIST and Him crucified just as Paul said, 1Co 2: 2.

• Gal 5:7-Ye did run well; who did hinder you that ye should not obey the truth? 9- A little leaven leaveneth the whole lump. So we need to be watchful. We should exalt His laws and Judgments! If some one does not exalt His laws, Sabbath keeping—they are leaven INTRODUCED to others!---if members think that a minister should not correct, it is leaven you put to others—

Ro 13: 1 -Let every soul be subject unto the higher powers. For there is no power but of God: the powers that be are ordained of God.

2  Whosoever therefore resisteth the power, resisteth the ordinance of God: and they that resist shall receive to themselves damnation.

3  For rulers are not a terror to good works, but to the evil. Wilt thou then not be afraid of the power? do that which is good, and thou shalt have praise of the same:

4  For he is the minister of God to thee for good. But if thou do that which is evil, be afraid; for he beareth not the sword in vain: for he is the minister of God, a revenger to execute wrath upon him that doeth evil.

5  Wherefore ye must needs be subject, not only for wrath, but also for conscience sake.

Re 21: 8--

• Notice that you can lose your place in new Jerusalem if you sin, Re 21:8, 22:14,15, Isa 66:24, you could also get worse punishments sorer than when you are punished for not keeping law, Heb 10:26-29.
• When you are saved, you cannot take it easy, just as Moses’ time we should not lust after evil things-

1 Cor 10—2-14—WHAT HAPPENED DURING THAT TIME OF MOSES?

2- And were all baptized unto Moses in the cloud and in the sea; (notice here that those fathers were baptized unto Moses! Then later to John the Baptist, Lu 7:29, NOW YOU REQUIRE TO BE BAPTIZED UNTO THE DEATH OF JESUS CHRIST, Ro 6: 3-7.

1 Co 10-3  And did all eat the same spiritual meat;

4  And did all drink the same spiritual drink: for they drank of that spiritual Rock that followed them: and that Rock was Christ.

5  But with many of them God was not well pleased: for they were overthrown in the wilderness.

6 -  Now these things were our examples, to the intent we should not lust after evil things, as they also lusted.

7  Neither be ye idolaters, as were some of them; as it is written, The people sat down to eat and drink, and rose up to play.

8  Neither let us commit fornication, as some of them committed, and fell in one day three and twenty thousand.

9  Neither let us tempt Christ, as some of them also tempted, and were destroyed of serpents.

10  Neither murmur ye, as some of them also murmured, and were destroyed of the destroyer.

11  Now all these things happened unto them for ensamples: and they are written for our admonition, upon whom the ends of the world are come.---examples for now!

12  Wherefore let him that thinketh he standeth take heed lest he fall.---this is how you could fall in 1 Tim 4: 1-3---we should not be too sure of life, we should learn from one another, listen to LORD’S preachers, corrected by them as Ro 13: 1-5 said.

13  There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear it.

14  Wherefore, my dearly beloved, flee from idolatry. Be wise to take the cup of blessings-1 Cor 10:15-17

• 1 Cor 10:21-Ye cannot drink the cup of the Lord, and the cup of devils: ye cannot be partakers of the Lord’s table, and of the table of devils.---24-- Let no man seek his own, but every man another’s well-being.—we should watch one another!
• Imitate Paul as he imitated Christ, 1 Cor 11:1
• We should not have divisions, 1 Cor 11;18—were we not divided?—

1Co 3:4  For when one says, "I am of Paul," and another, "I am of Apollos," are you not carnal?

1Co 3:5  Who then is Paul, and who is Apollos, but ministers through whom you believed, as the Lord gave to each one?

Both ministers were given by LORD!  But of course one has to identify their teachings comparing with scriptures, as -- that no prophecy of Scripture is of any private interpretation, 2Pe 1:20---we should see biblical proof!

Mt 7:15  Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves.

• The cup we receive is the cup of the new covenant , 1 Co 11:25, therefore when we get the cup we are to evaluate ourselves whether we are ready to make the covenant.
• In the case of gentiles,   we are to be found in the house of God, Isa 56: 4-7, supplications, fasts, Zec 12;8-10, Zec 8:19, should be done as LORD leads ISRAEL through supplications, Jer 31:9, LORD’S way is in a SANCTUARY, Ps. 77: 13.
• Are you obedient to the commandments, Ro 13: 8-10, traditions, 2Th 2:15--- stand fast, and hold the traditions which ye have been taught, whether by word, or our epistle.,

• Do we know His will in Is 66:23?-of KEEPING SABBATHS , AND NEW MOONS--- And it shall come to pass, that from one new moon to another, and from one sabbath to another, shall all flesh come to worship before Me, saith the LORD. (well, I had been keeping new moons too, from Nov 2010, as soon as I understood that matter which delights LORD,  we should be examples, 1 Tim 4: 12, Rom 12: 17, Heb 13: 7, Tit 2: 7-- 2Pe 1:10  Wherefore the rather, brethren, give diligence to make your calling and election sure: for if ye do these things, ye shall never fall ).

• When you know His will we should keep those holy days as instructed!
• Are we obedient to His commandments, judgments, statutes!
• ARE WE DELIGHTED WITH HIS JUDGMENTS IN THE SANCTUARY?
• LORD POURED HIS SPIRIT, Joel 2: 28,29, NOW THE BIBLE IS BEFORE US, HE MAKES US UNDERSTAND,  are we learning to do the words---PERFORMING THE WORDS are what is CALLED OBEDIENCE!

Jas 1:22  But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves.

LORD GIVES US KNOWLEDGE HOW WE SHOULD LIVE—

Heb 10: 32-- call to remembrance the former days, in which, after ye were illuminated, ye endured a great fight of afflictions;

34  For ye had compassion of Me in My bonds, and took joyfully the spoiling of your goods, knowing in yourselves that ye have in heaven a better and an enduring substance.

35  Cast not away therefore your confidence, which hath great recompence of reward.

36  For ye have need of patience, that, after ye have done the will of God, ye might receive the promise.

37  For yet a little while, and he that shall come will come, and will not tarry.

38  Now the just shall live by faith: but if any man draw back, my soul shall have no pleasure in him.

39  But we are not of them who draw back unto perdition; but of them that believe to the saving of the soul.

THOSE WERE WORDS FOR GENTILES---we are called the 1^st born of poor, Isa 14: 30, therefore we were to care for one another---WE WERE LIKE THAT AS VS. 34 SAID---but subsequently changed from being so!

WE SHOULD SEE THE POWER OF GOD’S WORDS!

ALL THINGS THAT WE DO ARE WRITTEN!

38  Now the just shall live by faith:----since we did not continue to care for one another, (it is not outwardly, but real LOVING care should be there!)----SOME FAILED FROM FAITH, 1 Ti 4: 1 happened!

BUT---we should follow vs. 39--But we are not of them who draw back unto perdition; but of them that believe to the saving of the soul.

WE SHOULD BE ENCOURAGED WITH THAT VS.!

• Those who are given knowledge should check whether they produce fruits of knoweldge-2 Pet 1:2-8. Otherwise LORD gives a debased mind to do inconvenient things that  leads you to second death, as written in Ro 1:28-32

How does that happen?

LORD makes you Righteous when He gives you the blessing of blood through death-Ro 6:3-22-you are made a new man, Righteous to serve Him.---that’s how we were made to take hold of covenant, Isa 56: 4-7, THAT MEANS LORD CONSIDERS AS RIGTEOUS---but members were saying “our Righteousness is as filthy rags”---which means they did not take LORD’S sacrifice SERIOUSLY! LORD’S BLOOD CLEANSES US—AND IF WE LIVE A GODLY LIFE AFTER THAT WE WOULD BE CRUCIFYING OUR LUSTS, DAILY ---AND LIVE RIGHTEOUSLY BEFORE HIM, Gal 5: 24, Lu 9:23---LORD REQUIRES SACNTIFIED PEOPLE TO COME BEFORE HIM TO SERVE HIM, read the qualities of Zadok’s sons, Eze. 44: 15—25.

If you lust for evil things, He would lay a stumbling block when a Righteous turns wicked, Eze. 3:20. The stumbling block  for ISRAEL was Ez 20:25 when they profaned His Sabbaths, Ez 20:24.

Similarly those who were given knowledge would be given a debased mind, Ro 1;28-32. (gentiles to do Acts 15:20  {idols, sexual immorality} Idols make you profane Sabbaths, Eze. 20:16,24  when they break Sabbaths, they PROFANE SABBATHS) Paul too said to keep traditions 1 Cor 11:2.

• We are to keep the fulfilled law-Ro 13:8-10---LOVE FULFILL LAW

Mt 5:18  For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled.

• We should listen to the ministers God gives, they would correct you, Ro 13:1-5.
• We are to learn the word of God  to do them
• We should identify false teachers and not follow them, 1 Tim 6:3-5.
• 1 Tim 6:11-- But thou, O man of God, flee these things; and follow after righteousness, godliness, faith, love, patience, meekness.

12--Fight the good fight of faith, lay hold on eternal life, whereunto thou art also called, and hast professed a good profession before many witnesses. 14  That thou keep this commandment without spot, unrebukeable, until the appearing of our Lord Jesus Christ:

• Sons of resurrection, are equal to angels ---

Lu 20: 35  "But those who are counted worthy to attain that age, and the resurrection from the dead, neither marry nor are given in marriage;

36  "nor can they die anymore, for they are equal to the angels and are sons of God, being sons of the resurrection.

• .We desire  a heavenly country, Heb 11;16-that is why the LORD makes us raise us in the likeness of His resurrection, Ro 6:5, just as He raised in heavenly places, Eph 1:20 (gentiles too raised so, Eph 2:5,6

•  We are to be separated to serve God, as sons of Zadok, Eze. 44; 15-25.
• It is a fearful thing to fall into the hand of the living God, Heb 10:31,
• Whatever is not from faith is sin-Ro 14:23
• Keeping the commandments of god is what matters, 1 Co 7:19
• LORD had placed teachers, priests, apostles, prophets-we are to identify where LORD’s work is.
• We are to crucify our lusts daily, Gal 5:24 and walk in spirit, vs. 26(spirit is words, Jun 6:63
• Gamaliel’s advise should be heeded---Acts 5: 38---for if this plan or this work is of men, it will come to nothing;----39  "but if it is of God, you cannot overthrow it––lest you even be found to fight against God."
• Gal 6:1,2-We desire  Brethren, if a man be overtaken in a fault, ye which are spiritual, restore such an one in the spirit of meekness; considering thyself, lest thou also be tempted.—OUR DUTY IS TO ENCOURAGE ONE ANOTHER!

2-      Bear ye one another’s burdens, and so fulfil the law of Christ---therefore we should provoke one another as goodness of LORD leads to repentance, Ro 2:4

• Gal 5:6-For in Jesus Christ neither circumcision availeth any thing, nor uncircumcision; but faith which worketh by love.
• As Laodiceans era is finished, the gentiles witness work is the last mentioned work-Re 11:2-4, they work as the servants in heaven, Re 19:1, when LORD’s throne, Jer 33:15, 17, is as the days of heaven, Ps. 89:29.
• During Job’s time he was self Righteous—but now in the end time LORD’s blood cleansed gentiles, Eph 2:13 and made them new men to obey Him and to serve Him and gave then His Righteousness unto holiness. Ro 6:19,22-TO SERVE HIM, Therefore such should believe that they are Righteous ----- you

Cannot say our “Righteousness is as filthy rags” Isa 64:6, because we are made Righteousness through the LORD’S sacrifice---servants of JESUS CHRIST cannot serve Him UNLESS YOU ARE HOLY AND PERFECT AS HE IS, Mt 5:48 , 1Pe 1:15 and HAS THE Righteousness HE GIVES US THROUGH HIS SACRIFICE, RO 6: 19,22,

Heb 12:14  Pursue peace with all people, and holiness, without which no one will see the Lord:

There are so many articles to give you more understanding and wisdom---please browse through   http://www.restoringcaptivity.com  .

JESUS CHRIST said

Jer 33: 15---  In those days, and at that time, will I cause the Branch of righteousness to grow up unto David; and He shall execute judgment and righteousness in the land, vs. -- Ps. 72:1--. Give the king thy judgments, O God, and thy righteousness unto the king’s son.

THERE WOULD BE ONE AS DAVID—AND A PRIEST TO OFFER THE CONTINUAL—(JESUS CHRIST cannot offer thanks and praise everyday to HIMSELF---there should be a priest among Isa 56: 4-7!).—notice in the following vss. --

Jer 33; 17, "For thus says the LORD: ‘David shall never lack a man to sit on the throne of the house of Israel;----gentiles serve as David, Zec 12: 8

18  nor shall the priests, the Levites, lack a man to offer burnt offerings before Me, to kindle grain offerings, and to sacrifice continually.’".---gentile priest, Jer 3: 14, 15, in house of God, Isa 56: 4-7.

JESUS CHRIST, the High Priest of Melchisedec Order leads the house –house of David shall be as God, as the angel of the LORD, Zec 12: 8,

But a man as David---and a man as Levi, priest HAS TO DO THE CINTINUAL, to WORSHIP HIM. therefore there WOULD BE SOME ONE!

ONE HAS TO IDENTIFY!

(ISRAEL men failed, Isa 22: 25, until they come from captivity, Eze. 39: 28,29).

He would be the preacher God Has sent, there LORD’S messages should be taken from that preacher.

JESUS CHRIST Himself sat on the throne while Zec 12:8 man (1 Kg 2: 2-5), of type of David,  serves Him,---WE SHOULD KNOW THAT LORD GIVES MANY ROLES TO HIS SERVANTS!

This is a strange act of JESUS CHRIST, Isa 28:21 ----His unusual act.

Isa 66:21 says God will take some as Levi and priests ----this is from among the gentiles -----therefore you must strive to serve Him, Isa 66: 23-24 says of the LORD’S WILL how all flesh would worship Him.

All those who transgress would be in Isa 66: 24!
