The Gospel of Jesus Christ
"Isn't that what a "christian" is? One who believes Yeshua/Jesus is the Messiah, etc? I do indeed believe that".

Well.........even satan 'believes' Jesus is the Messiah.

It's not enough to just believe in Jesus or God, most people you ask will say they believe in God.

This is for everyone.

You/We have to understand that you've/we've broken God's laws(The 10 Commandments) therefore deserving of punishment(Hell). A payment for those sins we've committed is required by God and since there is NO WAY we could ever pay that, God sent his only son, Jesus Christ to make that payment for us.

It's in 'trusting' his payment ALONE(nothing that we do) for our sins that we are 'redeemed' and then worthy to go to heaven.

Imagine yourself in a courtroom, you've been accused of committing a serious crime and the payment is 100K. You tell the judge your sorry and that you believe him to be a GOOD man and that he should let you go. Will he?

He may agree with you on one thing, he IS a good man and since he is good, he MUST make sure justice is served.

You see, the ONE thing that most people believe will keep them out of hell(God's goodness) will be the very thing that condems them.

But then when a man(Jesus Christ) you've never met enters the room and pays your fine, the judge then sees that justice has been served and you are now FREE TO GO!!!!

That's THE GOSPEL my friends!!!

The GOOD NEWS!!!!

God doesn't SEND people to hell, they CHOOSE to go there by rejecting his payment for their sins.

Everyone's fine HAS BEEN PAID, now you have to ACCEPT IT.

But it's(the payment) only good until your final breath and then it's gone and who here knows when they will take their final breath?

What is your choice?

Re: The Gospel of Jesus Christ
I believe in evolution of the spirit based on the teaching of Christ:

John.3
[3] Jesus answered him, "Truly, truly, I say to you, unless one is born anew, he cannot see the kingdom of God."
[4] Nicode'mus said to him, "How can a man be born when he is old? Can he enter a second time into his mother's womb and be born?"
[5] Jesus answered, "Truly, truly, I say to you, unless one is born of water and the Spirit, he cannot enter the kingdom of God.
[6] That which is born of the flesh is flesh, and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit.
[7] Do not marvel that I said to you, `You must be born anew.'
[8] The wind blows where it wills, and you hear the sound of it, but you do not know whence it comes or whither it goes; so it is with every one who is born of the Spirit."

===================================

Aside from the born again interpretation of Scripture cited, what do you believe is the evolution of the spirit, and how did Christ teach that the spirit would actually evolve and what would the spirit evolve into?.

Re: The Gospel of Jesus Christ
the "gospel of jesus christ" would be the words he spoke (reportedly) himself? yes? no?

such as the "sermon on the mount" or the "love your neighbor as yourself". yes? no?

anything above that would be others teachings and not the words of jesus.

Born again :
Indwelling of the Holy Spirit.

John 14:25-26 (King James Version)

These things have I spoken unto you, being yet present with you.

But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you.


Every Born Again Christian recalls a moment in time when they we're Saved...Born Again.

====================================

Gospel means good news

The good news or gospel did not take effect, until Christ was crucified and resurrrected. So Jesus taught this gospel to His disciples in a futuristic manner, Apart from that He taught and fulfilled the spirit of the law, making Him the perfected sacrifice and a sinless person, His atonement of His own life had infinite ability because He was also in the eternal nature of God.

As important as His teachings were on the law, His death and resurrection was what actually fullfilled the complete Word of God.

Jesus said...

John 5:39
You search the Scriptures, for in them you think you have eternal life; and these are they which testify of Me.
---------------------------------------

So before anyone thinks they can figure out how to recieve life from His Words, they must first come to Him and recieve life. He is the giver of life not His teachings.

Re: The Gospel of Jesus Christ
Problem is that outside your little book, there is no proof that any of this stuff is real. There is no evidence of an afterlife, not a single unaltered record that shows this jesus guy was real and outside of a patholigical need to feel that they are part of something special, nothing different about people who beleive or not.

Sure there is. One believes, the other doesnt.

Example: I believe because of a prayer experience I had. I can share the story with everyone, and I have typed it here many times. Really it does no good for anyone who isnt ready to believe. The beautiful thing about it is that once you've had the experience of Christ and the Spirit touching your heart, NO ONE CAN TAKE THAT AWAY FROM YOU.

You dont believe for one reason or another and that is fine, your choice. Keep in mind that MANY believers used to be non-believers.. Just like me...

The proof of the veracity of the Bible is in the prophetic accuracy of the book.

All has transpired as predicted with the exception of the final closing acts of history.

Re: The Gospel of Jesus Christ
Jesus came because the Old Testament was fear-based.

Burn in hell forever if you sin.

Now it's compassion, forgiveness.

But people are slow to change.

Many will take several re-incarnations to "get it".

"It" is compassion.

That's the reason for life, I believe.

So... If you sin (miss the mark) you get sent back to try again until you pass the test.

That's how it seems from all I've read...

Anybody got a better explaination for all this suffering?

The Transformation,or that as to becoming a perfected human being,is availiable to all,as was promised.
I am promised this,though it is in stages,not all at once.I assume there are many more.But a life time of supernatural activity and lately apparitions over me at work seems to signal something.
I paid my pennance and my time is almost due.
