    On GAL. 6:7

    The Word of God is God ( John 1:1) and not for any private interpretation ( 2 Peter 1:20). If it records in Rev. 12:9 that this whole world has been deceived, it did not speak of a particular country, group of people, person or religion, it meant the whole world.

    For a better understanding and the 'spiritual truth' what it means to repent, and learn how and by whom ( 2 Cor. 11:13-15) this whole world has been deceived and what mankind must do to be reunited with the true and living God, we invite you to seek Him according to the Spirit of truth; whom the world cannot receive ( Matthew 7:7; John 14:17).

    The word 'Repent' in different forms (repent, repentance, repented, repentest, repenteth, repenting), is mentioned 110 times in the KJV, and there seems to be a great misconception what the true 'spiritual' meaning of the word is. The word 'repent' used in the New Testament was translated from the Greek word "metanoeo", and means to change, transform, to think differently or reconsider.

    Only through Repentance will God be able to reveal Himself, and adopt you as His sons and daughters ( Rom. 8:15,23; 2 Cor.6:18; Gal. 4:5; Eph. 1:5; Hebr. 12:5; 1 John 3:1) and reveal to you how this whole world has been deceived ( Rev. 12:9) and overcome this world ( 1 John 5:4).

    The word 'Repent' means a lot more than what people by nature have been conditioned to believe. It is the key principle of all the teachings of Jesus Christ and the axiom (basis) of the Word of God and a prerequisite and primary requirement for the salvation of mankind. It means the changing of spirits - to turn from darkness to light and from the power of Satan unto God ( Acts 26:18).

    It is only by revelation of God that people will come to know the true Christ ( Daniel 12:4,9; Amos 3:7; Matthew 16:17; Luke 2:26; Romans 16:25; 1 Cor. 2:10; Gal. 1:16; Eph. 3:3,5; Rev. 1:1). It should also be remembered that it is a narrow way that leadeth unto 'Life', and few there be that find it ( Matthew 7:14).

For that reason and in order to become a son of God, which are born of God, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God, a person must be 'Born Again' ( John 1:12,13; 3:3-7; 1 John 3:9; 5:4).

That is falsehood, as in truth they follow after an image of a false god and a false Christ ( Matthew 24:24; Mark 13:22; Gal. 4:8; Rev. 12:9). This is how Satan has transformed Himself into an angel of light ( 2 Cor. 11:13-15).

    Only through 'True Repentance' will God be able to reveal Himself, and adopt you as His sons and daughters ( Rom. 8:15,23; 2 Cor.6:18; Gal. 4:5; Eph. 1:5; Hebr. 12:5; 1 John 3:1).

  • Samuel Garcia - In Reply on Revelation 13:15 - 4 years ago
    Hello Mr. Franklin,

    Thank you for your response to my post. I don't just believe that Jesus laid down his life, I KNOW that he did. He did that for all of His creation, so whether you're black, white, Jew, Gentile rich or poor, on and on, the point I'm making is Jesus Christ shed his blood, died, was buried and rose from the dead according to the scripture for whosoever will. John 3:16. I identify with that as I am a whosoever.

    Yes, it is clear that jesus Christ was hebrew and as bible believing Christians we have a rich heritage from that lineage, one for example is the passover. The Lamb slain from the foundation of the world who shed his blood for a lowly sinner as I. It is only by His Grace that I am saved and a child of the King! Jesus is all in all, The Savior, Prophet, Priest and King, Lord of all eternity, and that at the NAME of Jesus EVERY tongue will confess and EVERY knee will bow that He is Lord to the Glory of the Father. There is no other name given under heaven whereby we must be saved! Acts 4:12.

    What will doing your little exercise prove to you? For me this would just be an exercise in futility, semantic word games with my soul. No thanks I don't need to prove anything.

    I leave you with this. If you would simply put your faith and trust in Jesus and accept what he has done for you,, admit that you cannot save yourself, He will save you. You can have a relationship with Almighty Jehovah and live with Him in the world to come. It is yor choice to make. No one can make it for you.

    Good day Sir,

    You cannot just change the word 'born' to 'baptize'. The word of God is not of any private interpretation.

    Note: notice the HEART OF JESUS is very concern with those SAVED being VERY KEENLY aware of the many signs given in 1-52.

    Note: We should LEARN and KNOW at least 1 of the signs in 1-52 because...see 44 above.

    Note: 33 So likewise ye, when ye shall SEE ALL THESE THINGS, know that it is near, even at the doors. 34 Verily I say unto you, THIS GENERATION shall not pass, till all these things be fulfilled. 35

    I know just how you feel my friend! I do know that one verse in the Bible has always had a really big meaning to me and that is John 3:16 which really says all of it and it goes For God so loved the world he gave his only Son that who so ever believes in him shall not perish but have every lasting life. I was doing this from memory and I am getting really old so I might have missed a word or two and I also believe that there is a lot more to but I also know that I believe every word in the Bible so that is what it says. I would find someone to guide you in the ways of the Lord Jesus and make sure they are not adding to or taking away anything and do not just take people's opinions either only what the Bible says! I am going to pray for you now! One thing I will never do is add to or take away any thing from the Bible. Only if I made a mistake will that happen! Good luck and Gods speed my friend!

    Sharelle,

    The believers do not entangle themselves in the affairs of this life ( 2 Timothy 2:4). This current world is Satan' kingdom ( Matthew 12:26; Luke 4:6; 11:18; John 12:31; 14:30; 2 Cor. 4:4; Eph. 2:2; 6:12; 1 John 3:8). In fact, for whatsoever is born of God overcometh the world, and this is the victory that overcometh the world, even our faith ( 1John 5:4).

    Seek, and ye shall find (Mathew 7:7).

    Only through 'True Repentance' will God be able to reveal Himself, and adopt you as His sons and daughters ( Rom. 8:15,23; 2 Cor.6:18; Gal. 4:5; Eph. 1:5; Hebr. 12:5; 1 John 3:1).

    The word 'Repent' means a lot more than what people by nature have been conditioned to believe. It is the key principle of all the teachings of Jesus Christ and the axiom (basis) of the Word of God and a prerequisite and primary requirement for the salvation of mankind. It actually means the changing of spirits - to turn from darkness to light and from the power of Satan unto God ( Acts 26:18).

    For a better understanding and the 'spiritual truth' of what it means to repent, and learn how and by whom mankind has been deceived ( Rev. 12:9), and what people must do to be reunited with the true and living God, we invite you to seek Him according to the Spirit of truth; whom the world cannot receive ( John 14:17).

    You need not that any man teach you ( Isaiah 54:13; 6:45; 1 John 2:27), It is only by revelation of God that you will come to know Christ ( Daniel 12:4,9; Amos 3:7; Matthew 16:17; Luke 2:26; Romans 16:25; 1 Cor. 2:10; Gal. 1:16; Eph. 3:3,5; Rev. 1:1). It is a narrow way that leadeth unto 'Life', and few there be that find it ( Matthew 7:14).

    On JEREMIAH 20:7

    The Word of God is God ( John 1:1) and not for any private interpretation ( 2 Peter 1:20). If it records in Rev. 12:9 that this whole world has been deceived, it did not speak of a particular country, group of people, person or religion, it meant the whole world.

    For a better understanding and the 'spiritual truth' what it means to repent, and learn how and by whom ( 2 Cor. 11:13-15) this whole world has been deceived and what mankind must do to be reunited with the true and living God, we invite you to seek Him according to the Spirit of truth; whom the world cannot receive ( Matthew 7:7; John 14:17).

    The word 'Repent' in different forms (repent, repentance, repented, repentest, repenteth, repenting), is mentioned 110 times in the KJV, and there seems to be a great misconception what the true 'spiritual' meaning of the word is. The word 'repent' used in the New Testament was translated from the Greek word "metanoeo", and means to change, transform, to think differently or reconsider.

    Only through Repentance will God be able to reveal Himself, and adopt you as His sons and daughters ( Rom. 8:15,23; 2 Cor.6:18; Gal. 4:5; Eph. 1:5; Hebr. 12:5; 1 John 3:1) and reveal to you how this whole world has been deceived ( Rev. 12:9) and overcome this world ( 1 John 5:4).

    By nature mankind is born in sin and separated from God. As such mankind is not able to understand the Word of God as the Word is God ( John 1:!). This is the very reason why mankind relies on interpreting the Word of God while it is not of any private interpretations ( 2 Peter 1:20).

    It is only through 'True Repentance' that mankind is able to be reunited with God and it is only through 'True Repentance' that God will be able to reveal Himself, and adopt you as His sons and daughters ( Rom. 8:15,23; 2 Cor.6:18; Gal. 4:5; Eph. 1:5; Hebr. 12:5; 1 John 3:1).

  • Andy G van den Berg on 1 Timothy 2:6 - 4 years ago
    On 1 TIMOTHY 2:4

    By nature every person is born in sin through the sinful seed of their natural fathers and conditioned therein ( 1 Peter 1:23). For that reason and in order to become a son of God, which are born of God, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God, a person must be 'Born Again' ( John 1:12,13; 3:3-7; 1 John 3:9; 5:4).

    By attending a man-made institution a few hours a week ( Acts 7:48; 17:24), does not mean that a person can make a claim that they are followers of Christ and 'Born Again'. That is falsehood, as in truth they follow after an image of a false god and a false Christ ( Matthew 24:24; Mark 13:22; Gal. 4:8; Rev. 12:9). This is how Satan has transformed Himself into an angel of light ( 2 Cor. 11:13-15).

    Only through 'True Repentance' will God be able to reveal Himself, and adopt you as His sons and daughters ( Rom. 8:15,23; 2 Cor.6:18; Gal. 4:5; Eph. 1:5; Hebr. 12:5; 1 John 3:1).

    Note: the Great Whore is now destroyed, but notice the the 'reminder' to us /the remnant who has rightly applied John 3:16-21.... verse 4 we are required to WORSHIP & PRAISE GOD /JEHOVAH.

    Note: Locked in and can't go out WORSHIP & PRAISE GOD /JEHOVAH. Job gone, repo-man looking & calling, eviction notice, on and on... WORSHIP & PRAISE is what GOD want from us in such TIMES AS THESE.

    Note:So-call friends don't call, well they are.... also. Yes, in many cases the preachers is looked down also. So WORSHIP & PRAISE GOD /JEHOVAH where ever we be, because WHAT A FRIEND WE HAVE IN JESUS ALL OUR SINS AND GRIEF TO BARE. The kings /nations's leaders can not buy the mankind out this.

    Question: What did the Great Whore do during her reign?

    Answer: She corrupted the Whole-Earth ...., plus her bloodshed of GOD's chosen.

    Note:she had political power, global currency, and a super global military, so she disregarded all religions and rule by her corruption, both above & below the radar.

    Note: GOD raised her up for HIS-WILL, then GOD destroyed her by HIS-WILL

  • Dave - In Reply on 1 John 1 - 4 years ago
    If there was a way that would make you free from the guilt, the penalty, and the power of sins you have committed or omitted, would you do it if you did not have to sin afterwards? Would you quit all sin and never do it again?

    There is a way to do this, it is called repentance to God. Jesus did not die on the cross to save you and yet you still sin. If upon your physical death you are still sinning, you do not enter Heaven as your eternal home. Look at 1 John 3:9, 10 sin is of the devil and those born of God do not sin. True repentance includes sorrow, acknowledging disobedience to God, confessing these to God, asking for forgiveness of them, and having a heart change that you will not do the sin again. Only then does God forgive you of your sins. And salvation does not forgive past, present, and future sin only those from the past only.

    A true heart change is a second work of grace that a person that's been saved will ask for and it is called sanctification. Romans 12:1 tells us about presenting yourself to God as a sacrifice, holy and acceptable. A sinner is not holy or acceptable. As in Luke, repent or likewise perish. Even those that just lie now and then, unrepentant, will not go to Heaven. Revelations 21:8

    Romans the 6th chapter verse 1 asks if we shall continue in sin that grace may abound. Ro. 6:2 the answer God forbid.

    Satan lied to Eve in the garden, telling her that she'd not die if she disobeyed God, but she did die spiritually the moment she sinned. Satan lies to religious men and women today by telling them you can't live free from sin. By yourself, no you cannot. With the help of God, then yes you can, after repentance.
