SAVED FROM WHAT?

For the Son of Man came to SAVE
(From the Penalty of Eternal Death)
That which was lost. (Matthew 18:11, AMP)

What was Lost, was Paradise and the Eternal Life it contained.
The Cause of this Loss was the Sin of Adam and Eve against God;
They Disobeyed His single command.
Because of their Sin they were Expelled from Paradise
And because of this they became spiritually Dead,
As is Everyone outside of the Paradise of God.
Life only exists in the Paradise of God, in Heaven, in the Kingdom of God.

The Penalty of Sin and being Expelled from Paradise is Eternal Death.
After Adam and Eve every person is born Eternally Dead;
Born with a Sin Nature that causes them to Sin.
The Unbelieving, Unredeemd World is Eternally Dead.

Why has the World been in a Perpetual State
Of Conflict, Violence and Confusion?
Because they Perpetually Sin against God and His Way;
Every inclination of the thoughts of the heart of man is only Evil continually.
(Genesis 6:5)

The only Way out of this Predicament is the Way of Christ Jesus;
The only Way this life can be lived Successfully as Designed by God.

It is from the State of being Eternally Dead
That Christ Jesus came to Save all who would Believe--
Who would Cling to, Trust in, and Rely on Him;
All who would receive Christ Jesus
As their Way, their Truth and their Life. (John 14:6)

God has given One Hope in all that He Created,
And that is Christ In you the Hope of Glory. (Colossians 1:27)
The Only Hope that anyone has is Christ living In and Through them.
There is No Other Hope.

There is No Hope for a World that has Rejected Christ Jesus:
Salvation is found in No One Else,
For there is No Other Name under Heaven given to men
By which we must be Saved.
(Acts 4:12)

What is the Destination of a World that has Rejected the Christ of God?
The Eternal Fire that God has prepared for Satan and his Demonic Horde.
(Matthew 25:41)

He who does Not Believe (not Cleave to, Rely on, Trust in Him)
IS JUDGED ALREADY; (he has already received his Sentence)
Because he has Not Believed on and Trusted in the Name
Of the only begotten Son of God.--
He is Condemned for Refusing to let his Trust rest in Christ's Name.

The [basis of the] Judgment (INDICTMENT,
The TEST by which men are Judged, the ground for the Sentence)
Lies in this:
That the LIGHT is come into the World,
And people have loved the DARKNESS rather than
And more than the LIGHT,
FOR THEIR WORKS (DEEDS) WERE EVIL. [Isa. 5:20.]

For EVERY wrong doer Hates (loathes, detests) the LIGHT
And will not come into the LIGHT,
But Shrinks from it, lest his Works—his Deeds, his Activities, his Conduct--
BE EXPOSED AND REPROVED.

But he who Practices Truth—who does what is Right--
Comes out into the LIGHT;
So that his Works may be Plainly Shown
To be what they are, Wrought with God—Divinely Prompted,
Done with God's help, in Dependence upon Him.
(John 3:16-21, AMP)

America is simply part of the World.
Today America has Abandoned the Faith of the Founders
Abandoned the Fear and Love for God and His Word,
And is being TRANSFORMED
Into a godless, Socialist, Secular Humanist STATE;
A STATE in which there is No Hope.

Has the Church WARNED the American Culture of her Dire Condition?
Have you, as a Christian, been WARNED of this Dire Condition?

Listen to God speak to this Issue of Warning:
IF a Righteous man (Nation) Turns from his Righteousness--
Right Doing and Right Standing with God-
And some Gift or Providence which I lay before him he Perverts
Into an Occasion to Sin,
And he Commits Iniquity, HE SHALL DIE;
BECAUSE YOU HAVE NOT GIVEN HIM WARNING,
HE SHALL DIE IN HIS SIN,
And his Righteous Deeds which he has done shall Not Be Remembered;
BUT HIS BLOOD WILL I REQUIRE AT YOUR HAND.

Nevertheless if you WARN the Righteous man (Nation) Not To Sin,
And he does Not Sin, he shall surely live,
BECAUSE HE IS WARNED;
Also you have Delivered yourself from Guilt.
(Ezekiel 3:20, 21, AMP)
