Heaven Is Our Destination Where We Will Be ONE With The Lord Forever

Today, we are in The Season Of The Last Generation. The Birth Pains that Christ Jesus spoke about are currently under way, including natural and unnatural disasters. They will be ever increasing. Because of the increase of wickedness, the love of most will grow cold. Social, economic and political turmoil will be ever increasing, causing people's hearts to be weighed down with dissipation, drunkenness and the anxieties of life. An apostasy within the Church of God is currently under way. This will all reach a climax with Satan revealing his Antichrist and requiring that everyone worship him; That every one receive his "mark" in order to buy or sell; The new currency of the New World Order, the New Tower of Babel.

Today, it is critical that those who have a heart for God are aware of what God is doing and speaking today. God is opening up His Word like never before in preparation for The Time Of The END. I exhort you to open up your heart and your eyes to see what He is doing and your ears to hear what God is speaking at this time. My prayer is that we will be able to stand before the Son of Man at His appearing, without fault and with great joy. I encourage you to read David Wilkerson's book, America's Last Call at davidwilkersontoday.blogspot.com. Also, Google, Tommy Hicks Prophecy, 1961 for a view of the End Times.

'SAVED BY FAITH' IS HERESY

Here’s Why the Doctrine of Being ‘Saved by Faith’ Is a Heresy, According to Josh McDowell

By SUZETTE GUTIERREZ-CACHILA May 21, 2017 08:52 AM EDT - GOSPEL HERALD

Christian apologist, author and evangelist Josh McDowell said the doctrine of being "saved by faith" that is being taught in many churches today is utter heresy.

McDowell, speaking at a TV program, challenged the popular doctrine, saying many preachers today teach 'You're saved by faith' when in fact, it's not true.

He said those who teach and believe that a person is saved by faith are practically a "cult."

"That's a cult. That's a sect," he said in a video recording of the TV program. "It's impossible to be saved by faith."

"One of the greatest heresies taught today is salvation by faith," he emphasized.

McDowell explained that if anybody can be saved by faith, then Jesus didn't have to come because faith would have been enough. He also pointed out that having faith does not save anybody, because if it did, almost everyone would have been saved already.

"if you could be saved by faith, you wouldn't need Jesus. Just build up your faith," he said.

"Everybody I know in the world has faith. Does that make them a believer? No. Does it mean their sins are forgiven? No. Does that mean they're gonna spend eternity with Yahweh? No. But they have faith," he added.

"You can't be saved by faith. If you could be saved by faith, you don't need Jesus," he repeated.

So how can anybody be saved exactly? How can a person be saved according to the Bible's definition of salvation?

"We are saved by grace, through faith, not by faith. By grace through faith in Jesus," McDowell explained. "It's not faith that saved us, it was the grace of God."

McDowell's simple explanation was based on a fairly popular verse written by the apostle Paul: "For by grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God" (Ephesians 2:8).

McDowell also said that a person's faith must be rooted in Christ. Faith that is rooted in anything other than Christ does not save anyone, no matter how strong that faith is.

"What Jesus did on the cross is death and burial for our sins, but it's by grace through faith in Jesus," he said.

"You remove the 'in Jesus,' you can have all the faith you want in the world about anything and you go straight to hell. You see, you can't be saved by faith," he concluded.
