Eze_33:32 The words of a sweet song -- they hear but will not do
Eze_33:32 NKJV Indeed you are to them as a very lovely song of one who has a pleasant voice and can play well on an instrument; for they hear your words, but they do not do them.
Jam_1:22 NKJV But be doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving yourselves.

Morality is Missing
Church People Love to talk about the Gospel
Warning: Dont admire something as good when it is not Truly Biblical & moral.
Problem: Everyone Wants to Say Theyre Right -- but
dirty religion is WRONG, and you dont have a right to say its
right, and boast in it, and praise it as if it were noble and True.
Proof
is Needed for Your Message & Salvation
· Sinful Gospels exist.
· How do you prove that your Good Message is moral, Biblical, & True?
· How do you prove that your message is True and that you are one of the winners of the Good Message in the Bible?
The realization of a possibly evil, sinful gospel makes a righteous person cringe in reverent fear to make sure that they're not preaching Satan worship, or any other sinful useless vanity (Gal_2:2; 1Co_15; 2Co_13)!
Bad, invalid good message to David:
2Sa_4:10 NKJV when someone
told me, saying, Look, Saul is dead, thinking to have brought good news, I
arrested him and had him executed in Ziklag the one
who thought I would give him a reward for his news.
Remember: Dont admire the sinful gospel! -- you might get killed, especially in hell!
Conventional Ideas?
What
are the common ideas about the gospel -- even if they are
wrong/misunderstandings?
Problem Detection vs Solution Knowledge -- Seeing Reality
Inconsistently
· Problem Identified?: Occasionally lost people might point out the correctly identified problem, and this is so rare it can trick people into thinking they have the answer, but lost people never get the right answer.
· Sinners Can Accuse: Hypocrites can point out problems in others but they never understand the way to stop sinning themselves (Mat_7:1, etc.)
· UnityThis is precisely why we have to unify & synchronize on the same RIGHT ANSWER
Good Message = ANSWER
Virtually no one gets the Gospel right/Biblically because the Good Message is the Answer
· There Are Sinful Gospels (Galatians; 2Co11)
· There is Another Jesus and Another Spirit (Galatians; 2Co11)
· There Are Fake crucifixions & resurrections
The simple gospel usually means an oversimplified gospel, because it virtually always disobeys other Bible verses (oversimplification), and therefore Simple is Sinful in the mouth of a church persons gospel.
Examples of Sinful Simple Gospel:
· Lets Tell a Story
· Dont look at yourself, focus on JC
· Gospel = DBR -- nothing else!
See: Oversimplification
-- Under Construction --
Church habitually, distracts you theologically to look away from yourself when you need proof of salvation the most
Church Essentially Says
· Dont look behind that curtain -- at YOU when youre sinning!
· JC is good, but we still sin
· Lets tell a story do you believe?
· Note: where is sin-confrontation so repentance can happen first in these gospels?
...
stop "looking away" from what's right in front of
you, because theoretical superstitious religion is not the gospel in the Bible!
"the
gospel" is the "gospel of the Kingdom" according to the
Gospels... and the kingdom of God is within you, not just up in the third
heaven!
even though the kingdom is in heaven, yet those who are
anointed ones are seated in heavenly places right now by faith through anointed
one and are living by faith in reality of his kingdom right here on Earth
before it arrives physically.
if you have anything real and true it is right here and right
now, and it is wicked and naive and religious and superstitious to keep on
talking about a theoretical Gospel of looking away from what's happening right
in front of your face.
1Sa_15:22 To obey is better than sacrifice
Obedience is more important
than sacrifice, obedience is more important than theory ology!
Obedience is the canonical
standard for what is truth and who is true and what is
the real gospel...
Stop telling people to not
pay attention to the fact that they're continuing to sin, or to ignore the
behavior that is happening right in front of you, and "look away" to
Antichrist...
The Real Gospel of the real
kingdom is not about looking away to some imaginary story or fairy tale
deity...
The Real Gospel of the real
kingdom was written down in the scriptures and is only real in us when we obey
it and the kingdom comes within us and is written on tablets
of heart...
There is no clean gospel
that you can "look away" to, since the only real gospel is the one
that comes "within you" when it is 'written on your heart' and you
obey it
Repent of Storytelling
-- Under Construction --
Tit_1:14 Jewish Myths
Tit_1:14 NKJV Not giving heed to Jewish fables and commandments of men who turn from the truth.
2Ti_4:4 NKJV And they will turn their ears away from the truth, and be turned aside to fables.
The Good Message is not simply telling a story but demanding a response to a message.
That's why we need to consider the DEEDS of the Good Message...
In 1 Corinthians 15 the effectiveness of your faith into the good message is directly measured by its usefulness and contradiction of vanity
Simply telling a story does NOT stop the indulgence of the flesh
There is no moral to the story
Col_2:23
-- Under Construction --
Heretics just love
to tell stories about JC:
Two of our best-loved
hymns talk about "telling the story" of Jesus. One is entitled
"Tell Me the Story of Jesus." The other is "I Love to Tell the
Story." Both of them emphasize the fact that everyone needs to know the
story of who Jesus is, what He did, and what He teaches.
1 Corinthians_15:1-5 says that the truth
about Jesus is the foundation of the gospel. And Jesus is the central theme of
the Bible. So everyone needs to hear the story of Jesus.
People who are not
Jesus' disciples need to hear the story of Jesus.
One of the songs says:
"I love to tell the story, For some have never
heard, The message of salvation, From God's own holy Word."

4/4/23-4/5/23
the good message has always been a certain amount of
recounting what happened and a certain amount of instruction.
and even though the vast
majority of the good message has been instruction in the Bible with
applications lived out in stories and accounts, yet church people have treated
the gospel as though it is almost entirely a story or, good "news" of
something someone else did that we should recount over and over again, with
virtually no moral application beyond just believing in a story.
this is very unbiblical and heretical man-made fairy tale
storytelling...
the good message existed before death burial and Resurrection.
Bible is very clear that the
good message was preached in the Old Testament, and therefore it began to be
announced long before there was much of a gospel "story" to tell like
it is told today.
similarly, we know even more explicitly that the good message
existed before the death burial and Resurrection because both John the Baptist
and Jesus proclaimed this message while they were still living (on Earth as
normal humans).
and just as the Old
Testament proclaimed the good announcement in a way that also included
predictions of a sacrifice to come, so also Jesus preached the good
announcement by demanding that people take up their cross and follow him. indeed, these all foretell a story of events that are about
to happen, but their initial context is clearly founded in obedient application.
the gospel of the kingdom
of God which John the Baptist and Jesus preached is the only good and message
that a preacher can preach without going to hell, and this kingdom is about a
king who has rules that you have to obey which defy the flesh and take up a
cross and make a sacrifice of everything because his kingdom is winning against
his enemies and you better get on the right side before he comes and sets up
his kingdom here.
Jesus's death burial and
Resurrection was preached beforehand ahead of time by himself by calling all
men to embrace his execution and sacrifice...
we see then that the good
message is not essentially "a story to tell" about something that
happened, but rather, in its core essence it is much more of a message from God
to man, in the form of an edict and declaration from the King to his subjects,
which you are supposed to fear and reverently obey.
only after the king
delivered his message and edict on what we are supposed to do in taking up our
crosses and dying to this life and embracing his coming Kingdom from heaven,
only then did he actually courageously live his own message out to the fullest
extent and paid the ultimate price of obedience to the king and Lord of Heaven
as our example to follow in his footsteps...
we see that the good announcement is initially a command from
the King concerning the coming of his heavenly Kingdom and how we ought to
embrace his Words to be saved, and then after that it became a monumental
climactic event of all history when it was lived out in the person of Jesus...
without a strong context of fearing God and obeying his kingship
all the gospels preached by heretical church people are unbiblical and
blasphemous.
wicked church people are running around trying to 'tell a story
about how Antichrist came from Glory' and this shallow and useless storytelling
undermines the initial and essential essence of the good message, because they
have betrayed and abandoned and even persecuted a message from God to man about
what they should do...
in Deuteronomy 30, God is telling them to do something that
is soft-hearted and saving as quoted in Romans 10 when describing the good
message.
all throughout the gospels
John the Baptist and Jesus and later his apostles are all proclaiming the good
message of the Kingdom that people should repent and believe and do alms and
share and be merciful and forgive and love their enemies and turn the other
cheek and embrace hardcore forsake all discipleship... and all of these virtues
deeds are called the good message, which is foreign to essentially all of
churchianity which preaches a gospel of storytelling that doesn't even really
apply to real life...
only at the end of the Gospels does the gospel climax in Jesus
actually doing what he taught, and practicing what he preached
if you try to only focus on the last few chapters of the
Gospels so that you can defend your death burial and Resurrection of
antichrist, you are not preaching the biblical gospel...
you cannot chop off the majority of everything the gospels say
and then pretend that you are proclaiming the good message by only focusing on
the end of the book so you can tell a story that doesn't touch and confront
real life like Jesus did when he was preaching the real good message...

Disobedience is Characteristic of Sinful Gospels
· Delay Righteousness: Wait until resurrection and/or judgement to be really righteous
· Undefeated Sin: We can be saved & justified without defeating sin and the devil in our lives
· So Saved without defeating Gods enemies? -- that is NOT the Gospel in the Bible!
The Point: Sinful Gospels Habitually Reinforce Sin & Bible Disobedience

Jesus' Prophecy Proves that We Preach a false Gospel...
According
to Jesus, the real Gospel will not be preached in all of the cities of Israel
before He returns (Mat_10:23; Mat_24:14). With all of the "christians" in the world, this is hard to believe, and
would certainly make Jesus out to be a liar with a clearly failed prophecy, but
if you finally realize and start preaching the real Gospel, as Jesus says,
"THIS Gospel of the Kingdom will be preached..." (Mat_24:14), then it is actually very easy to believed that
it has not reached all the cities of Israel... Much less is it hardly ever even
heard of in any the cities of America!
When you
believe in "THIS gospel" you can immediately
see that it has almost never even been preached throughout the World...
> this prophecy also indicates and early apostasy of the
church BEFORE Israels cities have ever been completely evangelized

Gal_1:6-11 EMTV I marvel that you are turning so quickly from Him who called you in the grace of Christ, to a different gospel, 7 which is not another; except there are certain people who trouble you and wish to pervert the gospel of Christ. 8 But even if we, or an angel from heaven, should preach a gospel to you other than what we preached to you, let him be accursed. 9 As we have said before, and I say again just now, if anyone preaches a gospel to you other than what you received, let him be accursed. 10 For do I just now persuade men, or God? Or do I seek to please men? For if I still pleased men, I would not be a bondservant of Christ. 11 But I make known to you, brothers, the gospel preached by me is not according to man.

Gospel = εὐαγγέλιον
[euangιlion] (G2098) = εὐ [eu] (Good) + αγγέλιον [angιlion]
(Message), which is where the word for messenger comes from in Greek, which
we simply transliterate (as opposed to translating) as Angel.
This dynamic is directly seen in Luk_2:10 and Gal_1:8 (one of the first of the Scriptures quoted above). Gal_1:8 (and similar passages) have a paralleling effect, as saying: If a messenger proclaims a good message other than the one you received

Evil gospels don't make the flesh

· If flesh can (easily) understand your gospel, it is not the same Good Message in the Bible...
· Think about some of the worst case examples of rotten church people -- we've nearly all experience them in one form or the other
· If they can understand and even seriously appreciate your gospel while being rotten to the core, your gospel is useless.
· WHO is the real Jesus, Spirit, God?
· WHO are the Good Guys -- people blessed by the Good Message?
· WHO are the Bad Guys -- loser-enemies of the Good Message?

WHO is the real Jesus, WHAT is the real Good Message,
and WHO are its real winners!

No liberal Free-thinking
Simultaneous Obedience (of ALL the Bible) = Obeying a Biblical Definition of
the Gospel
We
need to courageously and simultaneously obey all approximately 150 references
to the Gospel all throughout the Bible
We
need to address...
The Semantics of Gospel
· What does the word definition itself actually say literally?
· What is the semantic range of what is etymologically literally being said in Hebrew and in Greek?
The Scope of the Gospel
· What Are They Addressing?: Besides what the words themselves literally say, what are they used to address, and what are they actually applied to, and what are they actually describing?
·
Military: Notice the military conquest context, both physically and
spiritually!
·
Isaiah & the NT continue the military context of
the gospel
·
Lordship, Kingdom, Rule, victory over enemies
The People of the Gospel
· Who are the people at addresses?
· Who are the good guys and who are the bad guys?
· Who are the subjects of the Kingdom who get this good message?
(A) Hebrew Word for Gospel
The Hebrew word for gospel is flesh -- that is very
surprising
!
Isa_40:
plays off of this Hebrew in strange and ironic contrast
H1309 H1319 flesh/fresh?/good-message
H1320 H1321 flesh
H1310 boiling flesh * as if ripe (Gen_40:10 Joe_3:13 [4:13])
(* Eze_24:5; 2Sa_13:8 [bread]; Deu_16:7; 1Ki_19:21; Exo_12:9)
H1308 Beshwor/Cheerful/Happy Stream (1Sa_30:9-10, 1Sa_30:21) [בּשׂור Str: From H1319; BDB: a
stream, torrent-bed, or wadi in extreme south of Judah in Philistia; empties
into the Mediterranean Sea]
(B) Theories of Good Message in Hebrew
(i) Strong: בּשׂר bâśar
baw-sar'
A primitive root; properly to be fresh, that is, full (rosy, figuratively cheerful); to announce (glad news): - messenger, preach, publish, shew forth, (bear, bring, carry, preach, good, tell good) tidings.
(ii) AHLB: When good news is brought a
feast with meat is prepared.
Think: Prodigal Son Returns =
Kill the Fattened Calf
Luk_15:23 NKJV And
bring the fatted calf here and kill it, and let us eat and be merry.
Luk_15:27 NKJV And he
said to him, Your brother has come, and because he has received him safe and
sound, your father has killed the fatted calf.
Luk_15:30 NKJV But as
soon as this son of yours came, who has devoured your livelihood with harlots,
you killed the fatted calf for him.
(iii) Ear Food: At least in some sense, we can also say that a good message is like flesh-meat (or food) to the ears. (This is one of our simplistic ideas about this word.)
(iv) Strongs vs. AHLB
Notice that Strongs is defining the message-announcement of flesh or fresh as a (proper) lexographer -- which is someone who studies and compiles ancient language dictionaries (lexicons).
Strongs is defining this words etymology as best as he can as a lexographer would by default.
AHLB is attempting to define this same word history (etymology) as if the figurative announcing of flesh were coming from an ancient associated practice, which is another understandable way that AHLB tends to define the root ideas of loosely related Hebrew terms. -- although this word is very different-sounding in its various application (flesh vs. announcing a message), yet it is spelled exactly the same in the original Hebrew.
(v) Semitic Mystery
Both of these theories (like Strongs and AHLB) are heavily debated for these confusing Hebrew-Semitic terms.
It is unclear whether or not Hebrew inherited this strange association or whether it created it. This same flesh-message enigma spans more than one Semitic language just like Hebrew.
(vi) Isaiah 40 is Clear
Despite various theories about bâśar, what is clear is Isaiah 40 is aware of the irony and plays off of these flesh-fresh-message-announcing terms.
The Point: The Hebrew Word for Gospel is a great Semitic Mystery which is debated among scholars, but we can at least focus on what ironic contrast Isaiah 40 more clearly teaches us with a play on words.
The Good Message gets a lot clearer once we get it translated into Greek
(C) Greek Word(s) for Gospel
Strong: εὐαγγελίζω euaggelizō yoo-ang-ghel-id'-zo
From G2095 and G32; to announce good news (evangelize) especially the gospel: - declare, bring (declare, show) glad (good) tidings, preach (the gospel).
More literally:
Well-message -- using the same message-word as an angel, except it speaks to a human messenger as an agent of Gods proclamation.
Main Strongs numbers:

The "good" in good message is not "nice" news.
Greek: EU = Well (its not using KALE = beautiful-nice-good)
"EU" is a generic good which is more literally
"well", and it's positivity is properly correlated in parallel with
qualitative-good, which "AGATHON" in the Greek of Isaiah and Romans
10
So
In the Bible the good-well of the Good Message is applying well (EU)
as 'qualitative good' (AGATHON).
So the Good Message is not good as in good news necessarily or definitively or particularly, even if it
might sometimes be applied that way, but instead it is
semantically paralleled with good in the sense of "the good
book" as we say about the Bible. It is good because it is qualitatively
good (AGATHON), not because it is something we will feel is good (KALE),
because a lot of times we don't...
Simple Definitions of Gospel?
Church: Good News (for Modern Man) - this
is blasphemous and heretical in multiple ways
Salvation?:
A Message of Truth necessary for salvation? -- Yes, at least that's the right
ballpark...
Good Message = An (A) inspired (B) saving message (C) from God (D) through a person (E) to an audience.

Title: What Many Christians Misunderstand About The Bible
Link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=llzDdqxIa6c
-- Under Construction --
Message, NOT Story!
Recounting the "gospel" as a story,
is not the good MESSAGE in the Bible!
NOT Uniform!
The Good Message is NOT One Size Fits All!
The Good Message is a customized inspired message of salvation from God
through a messenger to a target audience - this is not some kind of one size
fits all, where each celebrity preacher gets to try their best to summarize
their theology and say what the gospel is
The good message is far too vast to be easily summarized, and therefore
whenever it's stated as something simple it's almost always oversimplified
The Real Gospel can be preached to every creature, but the fake gospel is the same old cookie cutter story that is said in the exact same way to every different circumstance and people...
Agent Defined
Agent ≈ Representative of a bigger group, society, government, and/or Kingdom.
An Agent is used as an instrument in carrying out the will of the group he represents.
The very fact that God wants to use people is a mystifying secrect that just about one He knows, but nonetheless, here we are and we have to accept the facts of the Bible and embrace Human agency such as Divine inspiration to write the Bible and announce the Good Message.
The Biblical Good Message always includes the agency of a MESSENGER
Act_1:8 You will be my witnesses in Jerusalem and Judea
1Co_15:5-10 Thereafter he appeared to Cephas
Don't Miss-Categorize the Good Message
The Good Message is not the Good Vision -- although we should all want that too!
IF you get a vision like Paul, as seen in Acts & Galatians, then you still dont have the Good Message unless and until you get sent to give a message to a target audience
Therefore
NO Assuming Non-Inspiration
the Good Message by sheer definition includes a Prohibition against assuming non-inspiration
If you assume non-inspiration you are denying the proclamation of the good message so that you are not even a candidate to be saved
Message vs. Bible?
The difference between the good message and the rest of the Bible is that the Bible in general is full of histories of what God Said to people and did through them at various times, whereas the good message is where God finally confronts all people and calls them to repentance by sending them a personalized message calling them to turn away from evil to be saved
Act_17:30 In times past he overlooked such ignorance but now he calls all men everywhere to repent
The Bible is the Bible until and unless someone is a messenger that delivers Truth to you on how you specifically can be saved - that's the good message in the Bible!
Human Agency
Without Human Agency, there is no good message
The New Covenant & these ages of salvation strange insistence moves Human Agency for Divine salvation

"whosoever shall call upon the name of the LORD shall be saved."

Rom_10:13 πας γαρ ος αν επικαλεσηται το ονομα κυριου σωθησεται
Rom_10:14 How then
shall they call on Him in whom they have not believed? And how shall they
believe in Him of whom they have not heard? And how shall they hear apart from
a preacher?
Rom_10:14 πῶς οὖν

Rom_10:15 And how
shall they preach unless they are sent? Just as it is
written: "How beautiful are the feet of those who preach the gospel
of peace, of those preaching the gospel of good things!"
Rom_10:15 πῶς δὲ

Rom_10:16 But they have not all obeyed [ὑπήκουσαν] the gospel. For Isaiah says, "Lord, who has believed [ἐπίστευσε] our report?"

τῷ εὐαγγελίῳ.

Application, NOT Subset
· Gospel is NOT a Subset of the Bible, it is the whole Bible, but rather
· It is a specific application of saving Truth given as a message to someone -- the Biblical Good Message always includes the speaker and the listener
-- Under Construction --
when the Word of God is written down it's called the
Scriptures, or "Bible".
when the message
of what God said, or is saying, is told to people in person, it's called the
Good Message or Good Announcement or Gospel.
"Good
Message" refers to the way in which God's Words are delivered to people,
so as to address their specific situation and give the particular knowledge
necessary for their salvation.
the Word of God is the same source for both the
Scriptures as well as the Good Message, and the only reason the good message is
different is because it is a particular presentation of the Word of God which
also happens to include specifically addressing what's going on right now,
including the people listening.
the Good Message is proclaimed ("preached")
and the Scriptures are written down.
there's
nothing quite like hearing the good message proclaimed to you in person with
great detail and specific personal application, addressing every relevant
contemporary issue, and telling the people present exactly what they
particularly need to do, as each people group throughout history finds
themselves in particular perils and sinful ages of heresy and apostasy, and
overall sin which is blockading them from being saved by pleasing God through
his obedience in them.
this is the exact reason why Paul was not simply
content for them to read the book of Romans, but in the book of Romans, he was
especially eager and yearning to actually come to them in person and proclaim
the good message which he was briefly foreshadowing in his monumental
revolutionary epistle. Paul's eagerness to proclaim (speak) the good message in
Romans 1 fits exactly with his theological explanation of the necessity of
proclaiming and hearing the good message for salvation in Romans 10.
at times, the most powerful presentations of the Good
Message are summarized and written down as a memorial, and these have often
become the Scriptures we have today.
We
have many explicit examples of the most powerful gospel message presentations
turned into Scriptures in the gospels themselves (first and
foremost), which are the gospel presentations of the apostles summarized
and written down for particular people groups, as well as the book of Acts,
particular parts of the epistles, and according to the Bible, even the Old
Testament.
the gospels themselves are, of course, our primary
examples, which tell the account of how John the baptist,
Jesus himself, and eventually the apostles started announcing the good message,
which was in turn re-announced through the apostles, and summarized and written
down as the four gospels we have today. the gospels are the most important part
of the scriptures we have today and are a summary of the apostles proclaiming
about the good announcement which was being proclaimed find John the Baptist
and Jesus and eventually themselves.
because of this, the source and content of the Good
Message and the Scriptures are essentially the same in content and nature,
except that one may sometimes be a somewhat "literary" summary of the
other, but each experience is particularly different because of the way it is
delivered.
The
Word of God (as a whole) has particularly marked out and ordained that the path
of salvation particularly requires HEARING the Good Message actually proclaimed
and uniquely applied to your unique need for salvation (Romans 10, etc.)
it
is theoretically possible to be saved from sin when simply reading the
Scriptures, yet you need some kind of special personal revelation in order for
that to happen, which is not the standard default that God has ordained and
commanded, and we don't have many known examples of that happening throughout
history, including today.
Essentially
no one is getting saved in our day and age, and nearly
all of our partial spiritual benefits are accidental (as far as we are concerned),
which is why we desperately need the Good Message to be proclaimed again upon
the Earth.
the very idea that the good message or gospel is a
standardized cookie cutter presentation is radically unbiblical and
blasphemously heretical... it is a radical departure from the Scriptures and
'the faith that was once for all delivered to the holy ones'. Birthed out of
the dirty demonic zeal of Protestantism and Evangelicalism, it is not the same
message or content as the Scriptures in any stretch of the imagination...
It
is blasphemous and heretical to even suggest that a man-made oversimplified
reversal of the Word of God has anything to do with a message of Divine
salvation - this is idolatry and dirty paganism and has no relation to the
monotheism of the Scriptures...
people who are excited about a cookie cutter
summarization that they're calling "the gospel", are not knowing God
that is not perfect truth from the Bible and has
nothing to do with the perfect word of God
it is wicked to be excited about the flesh and it is
hypocritical to ignore the big fat apostate harlot sitting right in front of
you and state some kind of man-made summary of something being called a gospel
that doesn't say a thing about the apostate outrage going on right in front of
them
there
is of course an important sense in which a message could be written down and
given to a messenger to go proclaim and then what that messenger proclaims
could be written back down again, and all of this could be called the message
or the good message, as it is spoken and as it is written. however,
in the Bible there is an important sense in which the scriptures are written
and an important sense in which the message is both written and spoken
You're
not allowed to be a hypocrite and stuff your theology into a theoretical
document (i.e. the document versus the spirit) and ignore reality happening
right in front of your face. The Bible itself requires you to look at what's
happening right in front of you and judge what God is saying and where
inspiration is at and condemn wherever People are boasting without it.
everything
in God's Truth is morally charged toward saving people through virtue, but the
question with the good message is: what is particularly needed right now at
this time in history with this particular group and what has God done and what
is He doing right now to save them?
For
example, you cannot just pretend like the genealogies are not part of the
gospel that saves people since it is the very beginning of the gospel of
Matthew, nor will you escape if you try to pretend that the mysteries of
prophecies into the future are not part of the gospel, because this is the
gospel and I say at 52 and 53, and the book of Revelation explicitly describes
the mysterious message that is being proclaimed as the eternal good message
through the unfolding "Revelation" of these mysterious events.
if
you cannot understand the good message of salvation in these more cryptic
passages of Scripture, that is to be expected, because 'the solish
man cannot receive the things of the spirit of God' like a spiritual person
can, and 'the darkness cannot overtake the light' which includes the idea that
it cannot keep up with it.
in fact, when you can't see the gospel in certain
parts of the Bible and when you assign certain virtues and important peachings as being outside of the gospel you actually prove
that you need a proclaimer to declare to you what the good messages to begin
with.
when
you blasphemously say that certain positive attributes of the scriptures and
God's nature are not the good message you prove that you do not know God and
that you need someone to come preach to you the truth of the real God to save
your soul and bring the real good message to you that you have never really
heard or seen or known...
The
real gospel is clear that your relationship to the Scriptures is a foundational
issue directly determining your salvation, because it is your orientation
toward the supremacy and authority of the Word of God, and you can't be saved
by your fairy tale Antichrist since you are simultaneously being irreverent and
unsubmissive toward the Word of God who is the
pre-incarnate, and eternal, real Jesus, and He is the eternal Truth who will
ride out of heaven on a white horse to judge you and destroy your entire
religion and secular empire.
...
around the beginning of the new covenant I could have
said:
you need to repent and believe John the Baptist to be
saved, because he is announcing the kingdom of the new covenant.
(Jesus
himself essentially said this)
several years later I could have said:
You
need to Repent and believe in Jesus whom you crucified in order to be saved.
a few decades later I could have said:
You
apostating Corinthians need to also believe in Paul
because Jesus appeared to him and you can't be saved by another Jesus and
antichrist snake serpent (2co11) which is independent from Paul and apostating with blasphemes against him, and assuming his non inspiration, since Paul himself is included in the
gospel as testified against The unrepentant Corinthians in 1st Corinthians 15
All
of these are the real gospel, and the irony is the very passage where wicked
church people try to constrain and limit the definition of the gospel to a
death burial and resurrection actually doesn't limit it to that in the very key
passage that is hijacked and perverted to misrepresent God as though He were
anything like Protestant Evangelicalism...
I
could move on throughout church history and say that you need to repent joining
with the Roman government and the resulting apostate Catholicism and return to
the faithful traditions given by the apostles in order to be saved --
especially to the same degree to which they already have the name of Jesus to
believe in, and now they need to specify which one they should believe in,
which is most identified by being faithful to the traditions like Paul
commanded in order to be saved from end times apostasy and deception
and
of course, of great urgency and vital critical importance, I could move on to
our day and be one of the first people in human history to announce the good
announcement to our end times apostasy by demanding that church people repent
of Luke warm Leodecian luxury and prideful riches,
confronting your feminist irreverent immodest uncovered Jezebel, condemning the
harlot, calling disciples to get out of her, and finally announcing the eternal
good announcement message that the angel has in his hand in the book of
Revelation, warning all people that the real Jesus is about to reveal who He
really is with flaming fire from heaven, because churchianity has completely
failed to identify his real character or announce his real essence or care
about his real message, and it is this real holy one who is coming to destroy
His adversaries crushing every religious and secular empire, and because of
this you better get right with the Word of God riding on that white horse with
flaming fire in his eyes, because every single time you irreverently disobey a
Bible verse and pretend like it's too small for you to concern yourself with or
reverently fear to obey the real Word of God is going to come down and crush
and condemn you demanding every single last iota and smallest horn keria of the Scriptures from your disobedient rebellious
irreverent unworthy soul...
Heaven
and Earth will pass away, but every single detail of the Old Testament must
first be obeyed and fulfilled, and especially the Words of Jesus will never
pass away, but will judge you on the last day...
once
upon a time it was as simple as saying that you needed to believe in Jesus of
Nazareth who was crucified, but it moved on to become more complex because
other Christs were introduced just like Jesus predicted, and in our great age
of Great apostasy and hatred against God we need, now more than ever, for the
real Jesus to be revealed in the real good message which is why we have such
breathtaking revelations like the book of Revelation declaring to us how Jesus'
identity is going to be vindicated upon the earth
Church heretic might say there are no deeds associated with the gospel, you're just supposed to believe
When you tell someone to believe the good message you are telling them to do something!
Stop ignoring the obvious!
A good message is not about telling the story, it is about telling the recipient of the message to respond and do something the message is telling them to do
These are not dirty rags righteousness
These are not works of the law
These are not works of the flesh
These are CRUCIFIXION of The flesh
This is not a human working to please God
This is not a work to do something, this is a crucifixion of agony to stop doing evil dirty things
This is an inspired New Creation laboring to die to the flesh of the old creation to stop doing dirty works
Gal_1:10-11 slaves do NOT please men
Gal_2:2 unless I had run in vain
Notice the reverent fear to prove Truth!
Gal_2:7, Gal_2:9 when they saw the favor of the good message in Paul
Gal_2:5 the Truth of the good message
Gal_5:11 Then the scandal of the cross has been removed
Questions to Ask
when reading all Gospel References...
· (1) Obedient Sinlessness: What virtues of obedience and no-sin are in each reference?
· (2) Good Guys vs Bad Guys: Who are the good guys and who are the bad guys who lose?
· (3) Characteristics: what are the identifying qualities of the good message all throughout the Bible?

Is there a danger to oversimplifying the Gospel?
Are we accustomed to oversimplifying the gospel?
Does that happen a lot today?
The good message is an inspired message from God to save us through a person to a target audience
If you oversimplify directions necessary to build a spaceship, is that safe and okay?
If you oversimplify instructions on a heart procedure to try to save someone's life, is that saved-minded and okay?
What if you oversimplified a divinely inspired message that was intended to save people, is that okay, or is that reckless and dangerous, and risking hell?
Examples of Oversimplification
Just Confess Christ - meanwhile people who do this are as immodest as the rest of the world and even curse, so is that an okay oversimplification of the Gospel?
Sincere But Fleshly
What if you're missing something?
What if you had moments of sincerity but you need truth to rescue from misinformation?
Warning: Your flesh is still going to rebel against Bible obedience
Simple Gospel
Summary Can be Biblical
It is Biblical to want to summarize things
Hab_2:2 Make it plain on tablets so that He who reads may run
Rev_10:2-11, etc. there was a little scroll in his hand
So we see that finding an effective way to summarize is Biblical, and even takes us on into the end times
But this is a summary of Truth, NOT goof!
Oversimplifying ≠ Biblical Summary
Oversimplifying the gospel is when church people try to particularly define it according to their uninpired Bible-disobedient traditions that dis obey countless other Bible verses in the process
The Point: Oversimplifying is not what the Bible is endorsing, especially to the point of inaccuracy and total falsehood like churches do (in Mass quantity) today...
Vague ≠ Science
Exploring vagueness = deception
Distracted by slide of hand & business of dumps of vague clutter
Oversimplifying aims at Conventionalism, which has to keep things vague
to zealously generalize everything to everyone can keep what they are doing without
sin-confrontation and repentance so everyone can keep going to hell with their
own man-made gospel
Question
· Is God obedience or disobedience?
· Is God sinlessness or sinfulness?
If obedient sinlessness is God's character, how dare church people these days say that certain good things in the Bible are not part of the Gospel!?
I am so tired of church people saying obedience is not part of the Gospel or that stopping all sin is not part of the Gospel...
Anything in the Bible thats describing God's character and Who He is, in the perfect Words of God, IS part of the Gospel in the Bible, because God is Central to the Good Message that really saves from sin!
Salvation Definition Reminder
Salvation is pulling away from danger into safety. Just as God wants to save us from hell and bring us into the kingdom of heaven, so also He saves from sin into righteousness.
God is part of the Biblical Good Message along with His character, and everything He saves us from, like sin, and everything He saves us into, like righteousness and Holiness, which results in eternal life!
Every time you turn around and someone is preaching something in the book of Acts or reading something hardcore from the Bible a liberal free thinking Church person starts squawking and protesting as if that's not part of the Gospel
Squawking hypocritical protests never end:
That doesn't earn your salvation! That's not part of the gospel! You're preaching the law!
And they forget that the Bible is the good message...
Vagueness is Exploited Continually Without End
Liberal free thinkers love vagueness because we're confusion is their deception thrives
Wolves pounce on the vulnerability of vagueness throughout the Bible but to save your soul you need to be vigilant and watchful and you can rescue yourself from fragmented presumptuous theology by submitting to the preceding authoritative governing context of every passage to choke out the cancer of vagueness.
Church hypocrites love the word gospel because it's a clichι jargon that doesn't seem concretely defined and they can take it all kinds of directions into whatever lawless Bible disobedience they want, especially when it's so easy to exploit the naivety of virtually all Church ignorance and moral illiteracy.
Even when you get to the actual Bible in Hebrew and Greek the Good Message is a term that is very vague and slippery whenever fragmented - so always submit the preceding authoritative governing context!
Truly embracing the universal context of Sin an obedience in the Good Message are some of the best contacts to save you from fragmented liberal free thinking vague hijacked oversimplified polluted disobedience against the Good Message
So here's the way out of deception (including liberal free thinking oversimplification)...
The good message is the good message of the kingdom of God and most specifically the Good Message of Jesus Anointed One.
Jesus's name means that the monotheistic Lord saves, and Jesus came to save us from sin.
The good message is the inspired message of Jesus sent from God through a person in order to tell us how to be saved from our sins.
And remember, sin is breaking the law therefore stopping sin and doing all obedience are two sides to the same coin.
Every single time the Bible talks about the good message and typically if you see the word gospel in an English version, don't forget that this is an inspired message sent from God through a person to save you from sinning through Jesus.
Therefore every time the Bible talks about obeying everything God says and stopping all sinning it is impossible to deconstruct the Truth as if that's not part of the gospel because the Gospel of Jesus is here to save us from our sins!
1Corinthians 15
Follow the logic, oh people...
If there's no resurrection, then we are faults proclaimers, and your faith is useless, you're still in your sins
Today would-be evangelicals use similar principles on simplistic issues:
If you can question Genesis, you can question the whole
Bible
& if you question these basics, What then Is Faith worth at all?
Oversimplification is just as heretical as denying a literal Genesis! -- its the same old Bible-disobedience!
So why is it that we are so inconsistent that we can see we need a resurrection, and those who want to be Christians can see we need to embrace a literal Genesis, but then when it comes to the rest of the Bible our brain suddenly falls out!
Where did all that logic go when we were dealing with simple things now that we're getting just a little bit more complicated?
You need to obey ALL the Bible or your just like liberals taking Genesis figuratively and undermining the authority of the Bible.
You cannot disobey the context of 1Co_15: or youll just be another liberal Bible disobeyer.
Fight for the Faith
Jud_1:3 Earnestly contend for the faith once for all delivered to the saints
Churches really are, indeed, full of radical departure from the faith once for all delivered to the saints...
No remarriage repentance, no head coverings, no begging to obey all, with no sin discipleship...
The Point: Obey ALL the Bible simultaneously and STOP oversimplifying a fragmented verse while disobeying so many others and claiming that they are not the gospel
Acts 8 they preach the word of the good message to them
Act_8:25 they testified thoroughly
Gospel Identification vs. Oversimplification -- a
Fragmented False Definition
1 Corinthians 15 can be used as a case study
and exemplification on why not to oversimplify the good message like church
people do to their own destruction

Our Response
Pro_26:27 as a proverb in the mouth of a fool
See: The Devil Quotes Scripture -- above
This is what happens when a church person starts talking about 1Co_15:
There is not a thing sacred about being Biblically illiterate and opening up your mouth in deception to oversimplify the Good Message to the profane point of an evil gospel

approximate timestamps
where you can see this heresy:
5:45 [Salvation Assurance:] I know, that I know [i.e. endorsing illogical & unscientific superstition]
· I know I am in possession of it and all its benefits
12/13:00 [Adding?] Simple gospel vs Adding to it [as if theres not more to the Good Message]
· [Good vs Bad News] Before you can accept the good news you got to get past the bad news
16:30 why would someone alter the Bible [as if saying its simple doesnt alter the Bible -- it DOES subtract the context!]
16:50-17:1-40 [Changing = Not Saving] if you change any variation in the simple gospel then it cant save
· no saving power in a different gospel
· There is no good news when you change the gospel [thats the point! There is none for rich people!]
· (as if God didnt add to that intro idea throughout the rest of the Bible and Paul didnt add to it in this very same chapter!)
17:41, etc. empty faith
· (he makes non-simplicity = empty, whereas Paul make non-obedience = Empty!)
18:45 first importance (mistranslation/added - not in the Bible; didnt )
19:10-50 DBR (accuses Paul of giving simple gospel message)
21:09 keep it simple
Answers to this heretical video:
This speaker is such a wolf!
This is lazy thinking at some of its worst
Not changing = keeping it simple [instead of obeying context]
This assumes the BIBLE left it simple and that Paul did not add Truth to the DBR identification-introduction when continuing to read the chapter, but Paul DID add to DBR, which this heretic says is sin that wont save.
Root Issues: Logic, Science, & Obedience
· Is Science is required, or not required?
· Is Context is King/Lord, or not?
· Do you have to Obey ALL the Bible, or not?
· Is critical thinking necessary, or is lazy thinking allowed into heaven?
Him vs. US
If obeying logical science and context are NOT required, then maybe this video is right, along with the rest of Protestant churchinity
BUT
If obeying logical science and context are required, then the Bible-obedience we are proclaiming is necessary for salvation
If you watch this video, do so
· Applying & reapplying LOGIC & Science which the Bible requires
· It doesnt matter if he uses some of the words in the Bible, or in 1Co_15, and acts like he is supporting it
· KEEP YOUR EYES OPEN! -- or at least let logic, science, & Truth open them for the first time
· Nothing else matters if hes disobeying the Bible!
Hypocrisy
· Says dont add, but quotes paraphrases that add unauthorized words
· Says dont change, but quotes paraphrases that change
· Says if you change it doesnt save, but then changes the whole chapter

Bible Verses that describe this video
Eph_4:14 NKJV that we should no longer be children, tossed to and fro and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the trickery of men, in the cunning craftiness of deceitful plotting,
Col_2:8 NKJV Beware lest anyone cheat you through philosophy and empty deceit, according to the tradition of men, according to the basic principles of the world, and not according to Christ.
2Ti_4:34 NKJV For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine, but according to their own desires, because they have itching ears, they will heap up for themselves teachers; and they will turn their ears away from the truth, and be turned aside to fables.
1Ti_4:1 NKJV Now the Spirit expressly says that in latter times some will depart from the faith, giving heed to deceiving spirits and doctrines of demons.
2Pe_2:13 NKJV But there were also false prophets among the people, even as there will be false teachers among you, who will secretly bring in destructive heresies, even denying the Lord who bought them, and bring on themselves swift destruction. And many will follow their destructive ways, because of whom the way of truth will be blasphemed. By covetousness they will exploit you with deceptive words; for a long time their judgment has not been idle, and their destruction does not slumber.
Rom_16:1718 NKJV Now I urge you, brethren, note those who cause divisions and offenses, contrary to the doctrine which you learned, and avoid them. For those who are such do not serve our Lord Jesus Christ, but their own belly, and by smooth words and flattering speech deceive the hearts of the simple.
2Co_11:34 NKJV But I fear, lest somehow, as the serpent deceived Eve by his craftiness, so your minds may be corrupted from the simplicity that is in Christ. For if he who comes preaches another Jesus whom we have not preached, or if you receive a different spirit which you have not received, or a different gospel which you have not acceptedyou may well put up with it!
Jud_1:1213 NKJV These are spots in your love feasts, while they feast with you without fear, serving only themselves. They are clouds without water, carried about by the winds; late autumn trees without fruit, twice dead, pulled up by the roots; raging waves of the sea, foaming up their own shame; wandering stars for whom is reserved the blackness of darkness forever.
Mat_24:11 NKJV Then many false prophets will rise up and deceive many.
2Th_2:1012 NKJV and with all unrighteous deception among those who perish, because they did not receive the love of the truth, that they might be saved. And for this reason God will send them strong delusion, that they should believe the lie, that they all may be condemned who did not believe the truth but had pleasure in unrighteousness.
Eph_5:6 NKJV Let no one deceive you with empty words, for because of these things the wrath of God comes upon the sons of disobedience.
2Co_2:17 NKJV For we are not, as so many, peddling the word of God; but as of sincerity, but as from God, we speak in the sight of God in Christ.
Mat_7:15 NKJV Beware of false prophets, who come to you in sheeps clothing, but inwardly they are ravenous wolves.
Tit_1:1011 NKJV For there are many insubordinate, both idle talkers and deceivers, especially those of the circumcision, whose mouths must be stopped, who subvert whole households, teaching things which they ought not, for the sake of dishonest gain.
2Ti_3:1315 NKJV But evil men and impostors will grow worse and worse, deceiving and being deceived. But you must continue in the things which you have learned and been assured of, knowing from whom you have learned them, and that from childhood you have known the Holy Scriptures, which are able to make you wise for salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus.
A Preview & Initial Description
of the Problem
· Definition or Identity: 1Co_15 does not properly define the Gospel, it identifies it
· Abuse: 1Co_15 is abused & disobeyed throughout the majority of churchianity today to oversimplify and mischaracterize the Good Message.
· Defines?: Church people love to pretend that 1Co_15:1-4 DEFINES the Gospel.
· Both Perspectives: We need to consider ways which 1Co_15 (A) DOES & (B) DOES NOT define the Biblical Gospel.
· Molestation: When Church people say that 1Co_15 defines the Gospel, this almost always really means they get to use this chapter to simplify, limit, cripple and completely break the real Good Message.
· Valid Reapplication: 1Co_15 properly Identifies the Good-Message-Gospel; it does NOT explicitly Define it, but nonetheless, we still need to also consider ways which it can be validly used to define the Biblical Good Message so we can know how NOT to limit it like church hypocrites do.
· Limiting vs Obedience: The limiting fragmenting heresy of church people chops off 1Co_15 at the first 4 verses, but the obedient way to define the Gospel obeys the entire context of 1Co_15, including the actual application and commanded obedience of the message just announced
Most people in church today dreadfully abuse 1Corinthians 15 by hijacking it as a definition of the gospel.
We need to consider both perspectives on how it does and does not define the gospel, and we need to avoid church hypocrisy by not breaking limiting or crippling the good message in 1st Corinthians 15 when seeking out a way to define the good message
Weve already talked about the Evil Gospel, and abusing 1Co_15 is a specific application of such sin.
It is heretical, blasphemous, extremely UNBIBLICAL
Church people have so habitually and addictively repeated heretical half-truths that they are downright lies in the end...
The actual real gospel in the actual real words of first Corinthians 15 are... He did, so you do! - and this is exactly precisely the same moral command Jesus gives by saying take up your cross
I am deeply grieved and tired of heretical evil Gospels
Isa 1 - I cannot bear them anymore
Away with your blasphemous sacrifices and heretical gospels of sin
I am grieve beyond description and dreadfully tired of the misguided zeal of blasphemous satanic heretics
Away with your deranged blind squawking parrots from hell
Mat_15:14 If the blind lead the blind they will both fall into a pit
1Co_15 does NOT say the gospel IS but rather The Gospel Which
IS defines
WHICH identifies
Gal_1:11 CAB But I make known to you, brothers, the gospel [which] preached [τὸ εὐαγγελισθὲν that which was good-messaged] by me is not according to man.
Gal_1:11
Γνωρίζω δὲ
ὑμῖν, ἀδελφοί,
τὸ εὐαγγέλιον
τὸ εὐαγγελισθὲν
ὑπ᾿ ἐμοῦ ὅτι
οὐκ ἔστι
κατὰ ἄνθρωπον·
Gal_1:11 γνωριζω Aγαρ TSBδε υμιν αδελφοι το ευαγγελιον το ευαγγελισθεν υπ εμου οτι ουκ εστιν κατα ανθρωπον
Gal_1:12 For I neither received it from man, nor was I taught it, but
through the revelation of Jesus Christ.
Gal_1:12 οὐδὲ
γὰρ ἐγὼ
παρὰ ἀνθρώπου
παρέλαβον αὐτό
οὔτε ἐδιδάχθην,
ἀλλὰ δι᾿ ἀποκαλύψεως
᾿Ιησοῦ
Χριστοῦ.
Gal_1:12 ουδε γαρ εγω παρα ανθρωπου παρελαβον αυτο ουτε εδιδαχθην αλλα δι αποκαλυψεως ιησου χριστου
Col_1:23 NKJV if indeed you continue in the faith, grounded and steadfast, and are not moved away from the hope of the gospel which you heard, which was preached to every creature under heaven, of which I, Paul, became a minister.
Other Partial Examples
1Th_1:5 NKJV For our gospel did not come to you in word only, but also in power, and in the Holy Spirit and in much assurance, as you know what kind of men we were among you for your sake.
Rom_1:
Other Examples -- BEYOND Death, Burial, Resurrection
4/16/16; 9/27/25-9/28/25
Is the Biblical gospel Just about Death, Burial, Resurrection?
Rom_1:; Rom_10:9-10, 1Co_15:1-13, Eph_1:13
2Ti_2:8 -- from David
You have been stood!
1Co_15:2 NKJV unless you
believed in vain
>>> Is that just not believing in the basics?
1Co_15:3-4 DBR according to
the Scriptures
>> it is hypocritical to emphasis DBR and
ignore the need to OBEY ALL the Bible!
>> DBR is only valid if the Scriptures are True,
therefore you have to OBEY ALL -- every Bible verse!
1Co_15:10 NKJV his [favor]
toward me was not in vain; but I labored more
abundantly than they all
1Co_15:22 In Adam All die
1Co_15:50 Flesh blood cant inherit
1Co_15:14 our proclamation is vain your faith is futile
1Co_15:17 NKJV your faith
is futile; you are still in your sins
1Co_15:30 NKJV why do we
stand in jeopardy every hour?
1Co_15:31 NKJV I die
daily
1Co_15:34 NKJV Awake
to righteousness, and do not sin
1Co_15:34 NKJV For some do not have the knowledge of God
1Co_15:58 NKJV always abounding
in the work of the Lord, knowing that your labor is not in vain
in the Lord
Vain-ifying the Cross!
1Co_1:17 CAB For Christ did not send
me to baptize, but to preach the gospel, not in eloquent wisdom [σοφίᾳ

1Co_1:17 οὐ γὰρ

Gal_5:11 CAB And I, brothers, if I
still preach circumcision, why am I still persecuted? In that case the offense of the cross has been done away with.
Gal_5:11 ἐγὼ

1Co_11:27 He will be guilty of the body and blood of the Lord
1Co_15:9 CAB For I am the least of
the apostles, who am not worthy to be called an apostle, because I persecuted
the church of God.
1Co_15:9 ᾿Εγὼ
γάρ εἰμι ὁ ἐλάχιστος
τῶν ἀποστόλων,
ὃς οὐκ εἰμὶ

τοῦ Θεοῦ·
1Co_15:10 But by the grace of God I am what I am, and His grace toward me was not in vain; but I labored more abundantly than them all, yet not I, but the grace of God which was with me.

See: AND vs. OR
We need to stop telling "half-truths" about DBR, and start saying AND to simultaneously obeying ALL Bible verses at the same time
The simple Gospel of JC's DBR = Satan's Bible disobedient gospel - it's talking about an old fairy tale story about JC that doesn't involve you obeying Jesus's death burial and Resurrection
Churchs vs. Bibles Gospel
Church Delusion: DBR * = gospel
(* Death, Burial, Resurrection)
Proof: 1Co_15:1-4 - 1st Corinthians 15 proves DBR = gospel!
Problem: (1) it treats "which" as if it is saying "is" (2) it chops off the vital following context explanation
Simple DBR = Oversimplified Gospel
Bible: Good Message = DBR, Witness-Proclaimers, Obedient Imitation
DBR, human agency of witnesses, Corinthians obedience with no sinning - the real first Corinthians 15!
Oversimplification = Fake JC & Evil Gospel
There is a fake gospel, another jesus, anti-paul, and even a fake fictional delusional 1st Corinthians 15 - based on the inspired Bible disobedient traditions of the rebellious apostates of church hannity
DBR vs. Flesh Crucifixion
You can easily find a most wicked church person espousing DBR, but you will never find a hypocrite embracing full-flesh-crucifixion
The flesh will conform to any mold as long as it gets to keep being fleshly
Context vs Oversimplification
Context Obedience Saves from Oversimplification Heresy
Obeying the context of gospel obedience and imitation is the solution to deadly oversimplification in 1st Corinthians 15
Witnesses
You cannot chop off the eyewitnesses proclaiming the good message, because without it you don't have a message to begin with
Obedience
You cannot chop off Corinthian obedience, because then you don't have a delivered & successfully existent message.
Notice that DBR oversimplification is an enemy of Bible obedience and is at direct odds with having faith in the context of every verse of the Bible.
See: Don't Change the Bible
Every Word = Salvation
If you're not living off of every (spoken flowing) Word that goes out to the mouth of God, then you are dead and or dying, because eating the spiritual logical milk of the word is how mankind lives as human creatures.
If you can afford to change God's Words and not have faith in them and not depend on them for your very life, it's because you're in the habit of being dead, and habitual sinners breaking God's Words cannot inherit eternal life.
Participation = Exciting -- Through Obedience
The real good message is really exciting when you're a part of it - which is what the whole Bible is proclaiming to us in obeying everything God says
Fake gospel is Limited to DBR (Hijacking 1Co_15:3-4)
But
Obeyers like Paul say AND
· He dies (1Co_15:3) AND We die (1Co_15:31)
· He was buried (1Co_15:4 - lit entombed) AND we are buried with Him in baptism into His death (Rom_6:, etc.)
· He was raised (1Co_15:4) AND we are to wake up to righteousness and not sin (1Co_15:34)
· He is Righteous AND we must be moral (1Co_15:33)
·
He Works AND we work with
overflowing righteousness (Mat_5:17-20, Mat_5:47) to not be vain (1Co_15:10; 1Co_15:58)
[(A) περισσεύσῃ
ἡ δικαιοσύνη
ὑμῶν (Mat_5:17-20); (B) περισσὸν
ποιεῖτε (Mat_5:47); (C) περισσότερον
αὐτῶν
πάντων ἐκοπίασα
(1Co_15:10); (D) περισσεύοντες
ἐν τῷ ἔργῳ
τοῦ Κυρίου
πάντοτε (1Co_15:58)]
REAL DBR!
· The REAL Crucifixion is only realized when we are crucified (Gal_2:20, Gal_5:24)
· The REAL Burial is only realized when we are cleaned from all sinning by being buried with Him in baptism (Rom_6:)
·
The REAL Resurrection
is only realized when we Awake to righteousness, and do not sin (1Co_15:34, NKJV)
We obey ALL with No Sin
We repent away from vain useless sinful non-obeying faith to be saved
Without AND, all you have is a Useless-Vain-Empty Gospel -- a simple, empty-vain story, without a moral to it, that does not include your faithful fruitful obedience
See: Useless Gospel -- 1Co_15 (above)
1Co_15:2 NKJV unless you
believed in vain
>>> Is that just not believing in the basics?
1Co_15:10 NKJV his [favor]
toward me was not in vain; but I labored more abundantly than they all
1Co_15:17 NKJV your faith
is futile; you are still in your sins
1Co_15:30 NKJV why do we
stand in jeopardy every hour?
1Co_15:31 NKJV I die daily
1Co_15:33
bad friendships rot good ethical-morals-practices
1Co_15:34 NKJV Awake to
righteousness, and do not sin
1Co_15:34 NKJV For some do not have the knowledge of God
1Co_15:58 NKJV always
abounding in the work of the Lord, knowing that your labor is not in vain in
the Lord
Preview
· AND almost always goes with 2 good things in the Bible, unless you are necessarily sacrificing one valuable thing for another.
· OR almost always goes with Good vs. Bad in the Bible -- you have to chose between to things, and they cannot happen simultaneously at the same time
Classic church fallacy: OR when the Bible says AND
· Predestination AND free will
· God gets all the glory AND His Bride is glorified
· Believe & beg God AND obeyers
· Jesus died AND we take up our cross
· Jesus died for our sins AND we die to all sinning
· Jesus was buried AND we must be baptized into his death
· Jesus resurrected AND we are to be raised to walk around in newness of life
Who He was saves us from sin AND Who He's coming to review Himself to be saves us from judgment
Jesus was righteous for us AND He makes us really righteous
Jesus was righteous for us for the sake of punishment and death, And He makes us really righteous for the sake of Resurrection
He is righteous for us to take away our sins, AND He now makes us righteous to save us at judgment
AND = +
AND is Called Adding to the Gospel, by Filthy Bible Disobeyers
Notably and Interestingly, this Biblical principle of AND is
exactly what the Bible is definitively commanding and teaching precisely when
blasphemous church people are protesting against the Good Message by saying you
cannot and or must not add anything to the gospel. The
Bible is saying AND to multiple good things which it include sin the Good
Message, and heretical church people are calling this Biblical AND as
adding to their filthy, subtracted, heretical, Bible-disobedient gospel.
Church people are imagining that leaving all the good things in the Good Message that God included and proclaiming them as saving Truth is adding. Actually, filthy church apostasy-rebellion removed Truth from the Good Message, to squawk about and boast in their man-made uninspired gospel that disobeys the Bible. And then they add insult to injury by accusing God and His delegates of ADDing to the gospel, which is really including what has always been there, that is beyond their sinful gospel, and yet they are offended as if God has no right to proclaim anything in the Bible as part of the gospel after they wickedly removed nearly all of His Truth from His Good Message.
The rules against adding are purely artificial and man-made traditions of preconceived propaganda and rhetoric that they bring to the Bible, ignoring the very fact that they are incriminating Paul in the process of pretending to boast in his gospel -- which he never even preached
Saying OR to Bible verses is Bible disobedience.
The Bible says AND to all Truth.
The Good Message is about simultaneously obeying every Bible verse.
You're not allowed to say "OR" to two good things that are both in the Bible, because the Bible has said AND.
· Rom_3: Wages of sin OR eternal life
· 1Co_6: Anointed one OR a prostitute
· 1Co_10: Anointed one OR idols Temple
The "OR" versus in the Bible are about Good Versus Evil
The Point: Say OR when the Bible says OR, and say AND when the Bible says AND
Saying OR when the Bible says AND is Bible disobedience -- and is failing to obey ALL the Bible

What if I had oversimplified the Gospel to DBR
Heb_4:1-3 the gospel was preached to them as well as us
Heb_4:1 CAB Therefore let us fear, lest while the promise remains to enter into His rest, anyone of you seems to have fallen short.
Heb_4:1 Φοβηθῶμεν
οὖν μή ποτε, καταλειπομένης
ἐπαγγελίας

δοκῇ τις ἐξ
ὑμῶν ὑστερηκέναι.
Heb_4:2 For indeed we have had the gospel preached to us just as those also; but the word which they heard did not profit those, not having been mixed with faith in those having heard it.
Heb_4:2 καὶ
γάρ ἐσμεν εὐηγγελισμένοι,
καθάπερ κἀκεῖνοι·
ἀλλ᾿ οὐκ ὠφέλησεν

Heb_4:3 For we who have believed enter that rest, as He has said: "So I swore in My wrath, they shall not enter My rest," although His works were finished from the foundation of the world.
Heb_4:3 εἰσερχόμεθα

Jer_31:31 the New Covenant is with the house of ISRAEL, not the Nations directly
Zec_2:11 Many will join themselves to Israel in the last days
Zec_2:11 NKJV Many nations shall be joined to the Lord in that day, and they shall become My people. And I will dwell in your midst. Then you will know that the Lord of hosts has sent Me to you.
Isa_56:6-7 NKJV Also the sons of the foreigner who join themselves to the Lord, to serve Him, and to love the name of the Lord, to be His servantseveryone who keeps from defiling the Sabbath, and holds fast My covenanteven them I will bring to My holy mountain.
Because God's New Covenant is with Israel directly, therefore the Good Message to the Nations is completely dependent on coming to monotheism and submitting under the protection of her feathers
Rom_11:17 Nations Grafted in -- Dont boast!
Rom_11:17 NKJV And if some of the branches were broken off, and you, being a wild olive tree, were grafted in among them, and with them became a partaker of the root and fatness of the olive tree.
Ruth
Rth_2:12 Blessed are you daughter who has come under the wings of Israel
Rth_2:12 NKJV The Lord repay your work, and a full reward be given you by the Lord God of Israel, under whose wings you have come for refuge.
Remember: we too need to beg to be joined to monotheism just like Ruth did in order to engage the blessings of Israel (as Romans 11 and Galatians teach)
The good message predicts a destruction of Israel's enemies therefore the good message announced in the new Covenant carries a hope into the end times conflict where God's victory progressively dominates the nations in thrilling ways
The fact that Israel's enemies are defeated by the good message proves that we absolutely must win in the end times along with monotheism when she is exalted with God's salvation to Israel - this is also why salvation of the gentiles is paralleled along with the salvation of the Jews in the center of the symmetrical design pattern of the book of Romans
The salvation of the gentiles, right now during the times of the gentiles, is intimately intertwined and paralleled with the salvation of the Jews in the end times.
When the gentiles are initially saved they are turning the other cheek, even under the persecution of apostate Jews;
When all Israel is saved she is together with the gentiles, turning the other cheek together, while escaping from the harlot and being persecuted by Antichrist, and ultimately seeing her national enemies destroyed by the good message, as seen in Revelation 10 to 12
So when we think about the salvation of the good message it is inseparable from...
Being saved from sinning
(Being saved from the devil and Hell)
Being ultimately saved from spiritual and physical enemies
Being saved from pagan Nations in the end
Submitting to Jesus as Lord includes...
No longer sinning (no serving 2 Masters)
No longer being worldly
A transfer of citizenship to heaven's Kingdom
A denial of worldly powers as ultimate rulers
A prediction of the downfall of all rulers and Nations

she that is my enemy shall see it, and shall clothe herself with
shame, who says, Where is the Lord your God? My eyes shall look upon her; now
shall she be for trampling as mire in the ways.

αὐτήν·

καταπάτημα ὡς
πηλὸς ἐν ταῖς ὁδοῖς
Context: Pagan-Gentiles vs. Israel
(Mic_7:16-17)
Pagan says: Where is the Lord your God? (Mic_7:10)
The Point: Get in Touch With & resolve Your Sin! -- this separates the Good Guys from the Bad Guys
Israel has sinned, & Micah (vicariously) confesses their corporate redemptive solution (I have sinned against Him), which results in Israel seeing His righteousness (Mic_7:9)
Israels anti-Lord Enemies (who says, Where is the Lord your God?) are defeated: she be for trampling as mire in the ways (Mic_7:10)
Israel will be saved for repenting & resolving her sin, and the enemy nations will be destroyed for continuing in sin until it is too late.

Compare: Sinful Gospel | Losers of Good Messages | Enemies of the Good Message
Good Message Persecutors = Enemies
Phi_1:27 LSV Only conduct yourselves worthily of the good news of the Christ, that, whether having come and seen you, whether being absent I may hear of the things concerning you, that you stand fast in one spirit, with one soul, striving together for the faith of the good news,
Phi_1:28 LSV and not be terrified in anything by those opposing, which is indeed a token of destruction to them, and to you of salvation, and that from God;
Good Message Disobeyers = Enemies
2Th_1:8 NKJV In flaming fire taking vengeance on those who do not know God, and on those who do not obey the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ.
Notice: They are not being saved they get vengeance -- thats enemies!
The Only Good News Simplification Ruins Romans
What if I had oversimplified the Gospel to Good News
Rom_1 The
wrath of God
Rom_2 storing up wrath for yourself
Not Ashamed -- Why?
· Where is the temptation to feel ashamed if even lost church people love good news and affirm DBR?
· Not Ashamed = proof that an evil gospel is at hand in the boasts of evil church people who are never even tempted to be ashamed of their gospel
· Romans identifies the real Good Message as the Truth which could make a person feel tempted to be ashamed among fleshly church people who despise you for it...
Gospel
Wrath?
Why the sudden shift into wrath???
We were told that this was GOOD news!
Did Paul switch horses in mid-stream, or are we severely ignorant about the Gospel that saves?
We need to prove that Romans is still telling us the Good Message, even when it goes off into wrath & telling Sad News
Chiasms Throughout the Bible
Many of the great epic parts of the Bible have symmetrical design patterns called Chiasms.
The Chiasm Throughout Romans
Romans is a Big Chiasm (Symmetrical Design Pattern)
Heres one persons take on Romans chiasm (not an endorsement):

Noticing The Chiasm Throughout Romans, and that the word gospel marks the framework for this Chiasm helps prove and reinforce that the whole book of Romans is about the Good Message.
Oversimplification is Doomed in Romans
Those who oversimplify the gospel as only simple good news are in for a big disruption-surprise
Romans is NOT changing subjects and talking about non-essentials at any point when going into the sad news -- the whole book is the Good Message.
This includes: wrath, stopping all sinning, obedience, getting discipled, and many more essential fruits and characteristics of the Biblical Good Message.
This tells us that God has enemies of His hot anger-wrath, and it also tells us the Good Message has BAD NEWS built in.
The Real Gospel, Good
Message, is bad news to those living in sin -- incl. churchianity

GM Enemies Are Opposing!
When God is Announcing out His divinely inspired Good Message of salvation through His inspired representatives, the Enemies of the Good Message are OPPOSING His Clean True Saving inspired message.
·
WHO are the enemy-losers
of the Biblical Good Messages?
· How can we get more specific and scientific to prove whose True?? -- as we MUST!!!
· Unrepentant sinners = The Enemies? -- yes, including
· Religious Sinners
· Lovers of the Evil Gospel = Enemies of Good Messages
We need to consider the enemies of the Good Message who
lose, and we need to grasp a logical & proven hope that we can escape from
being like them and in fleeing their Doom we might
also simultaneously find out how to be the winners of the Good Message.

Are you believing the Good Message to fight! spiritual enemies if you still have ongoing sin in your life?
Are you fighting them if you are continually collaborating with them?

Devilish & Human Enemies
Everyone easily agrees that the DEVIL is a bad enemy that needs to go to hell (at least in theory, while not in practice), but the real concerning terror of the Lord for us humans is when PEOPLE can be God's enemies by dis-arranging the Good Message...
The problem for us sinful humans is that God's battle against His cosmic spiritual enemies doesn't stop in heaven, but His vengeful wrath falls down in full force and in terrifying violence upon those living on the earth!

Evil Defeated by the Good Message
Rom_8:3 He condemned sin in the flesh
Rom_8:3 NKJV For what the law could not do in that it was weak through the flesh, God did by sending His own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh, on account of sin: He condemned sin in the flesh.
To those who want to keep on sinning, this is bad news, but to those who are tired of sinning this is the best news they've ever heard
Luk_2:14 Peace on Earth and Goodwill to men
Luk_2:14 NKJV Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, goodwill toward men!
Rom_5:10 While we were enemies we were reconciled through the death of his son
Rom_5:10 NKJV For if when we were enemies we were reconciled to God through the death of His Son, much more, having been reconciled, we shall be saved by His life.
2Co_5:19
God defeated His enemies
God defeated evil
God already really Loves people whom He made in his own icon
God's victory over evil is inherently a victory against the enemies of humans who were made in His icon
But there is an "AND" that we have to simultaneously acknowledge...
Even though God won the victory for himself and his beloved humans, yet humans who choose to stay on the side of evil and not receive the release of the light of Truth will be destroyed with their own enemies...
Mat_25:41 Everlasting fire prepared for the devil and his angels
Mat_25:41 NKJV Then He will also say to those on the left hand, Depart from Me, you cursed, into the everlasting fire prepared for the devil and his angels.
Therefore passages like Luke 1 anticipate the HUMAN ENEMIES of the good message, who keep on sinning
In the short term the good message immediately gives obeyers victory over sin, but simultaneously the complete Perfection of the good message gives us victory over the nations
Therefore there are BOTH (1) cosmic spiritual enemies of the good message as well as (2) human, and even national enemies of this world that maintain continual sin against the good message
Ironically God is profoundly fighting for the salvation of all humans and is at the same time ferociously set against defeating all his enemies both spiritual and human.

Act_13:11 And now behold, the hand of the Lord is upon you, and you shall be blind, not seeing the sun for a season." And immediately a mistiness and darkness fell upon him, and going about, he sought someone to lead him by the hand.

Act_13:12 Then when the proconsul saw what had happened, he believed, being amazed at the teaching of the Lord.
Act_13:12 τότε ἰδὼν

Jews: Enemies for Gospels Sake

What About Us??
· It is easy to talk about other people & religions, but loving Truth and integrity confronts what WE are tempted with?
· Sharp up-to-date Sin-confrontation is applying the Bible the way the Bible applies the Bible!
There are enemies throughout Isaiah, and there are enemies throughout the Gospels and the Epistles, and the worst enemies are always religious people who refused to submit to the Message of Truth right in front of their face, because they've never really become humble enough to embrace their need to be saved from continually sinning & living in sin.
Worldly Religious Enemies
Jam_4:4 NKJV Adulterers and adulteresses! Do you not know that friendship with the world is enmity with God? Whoever therefore wants to be a friend of the world makes himself an enemy of God.
Mat_7:21 NKJV Not everyone who says to Me, Lord, Lord, shall enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father in heaven.
Luk_6:46 NKJV But why do you call Me Lord, Lord, and not do the things which I say?
Jud_1:12 NKJV These are spots in your love feasts... twice dead, pulled up by the roots.
2Pe_2:20 NKJV For if, after they have escaped the pollutions of the world... they are again entangled in them and overcome, the latter end is worse for them than the beginning.

There are enemies of the Cross and of the Resurrection, which means they are enemies of the good message
Enemies of Jesus death-steak = those not dying to sin with Him
Questions
· Who are the enemies in Joh_3:16?
· What makes a person a Cross-enemy?
(B) Joh_3:16: Condemned Darkness-Sinners =
Cross Enemies
· Joh_3:16 includes the cross in Joh_3:14
· So WHO are the enemies of Joh_3:16?
· Joh_3:19 those who have evil practices
Joh_3:14 CAB And just as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of Man be lifted up,
Joh_3:14 καὶ
καθὼς Μωϋσῆς
ὕψωσε τὸν ὄφιν
ἐν τῇ ἐρήμῳ,
οὕτως ὑψωθῆναι
δεῖ τὸν Υἱὸν
τοῦ ἀνθρώπου,
Joh_3:14 και καθως Aμωυσης TSBμωσης υψωσεν τον οφιν εν τη ερημω ουτως υψωθηναι δει τον υιον του ανθρωπου
Joh_3:15 that everyone who believes in Him should not perish but have eternal life.
Joh_3:15 ἵνα πᾶς
ὁ πιστεύων
εἰς αὐτὸν
μὴ ἀπόληται,
ἀλλ᾿ ἔχῃ
ζωὴν αἰώνιον.
Joh_3:15
ινα πας ο
πιστευων Aεν Aαυτω TSBεις TSBαυτον TSBμη TSBαποληται TSBαλλ εχη ζωην
αιωνιον
Joh_3:16 For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.
Joh_3:16 οὕτω
γὰρ ἡγάπησεν
ὁ Θεὸς τὸν
κόσμον, ὥστε
τὸν υἱὸν αὐτοῦ
τὸν μονογενῆ
ἔδωκεν, ἵνα πᾶς
ὁ πιστεύων
εἰς αὐτὸν
μὴ ἀπόληται,
ἀλλ᾿ ἔχῃ
ζωὴν αἰώνιον.
Joh_3:16 ουτως γαρ ηγαπησεν ο θεος τον κοσμον ωστε τον υιον TSBαυτου τον μονογενη εδωκεν ινα πας ο πιστευων εις αυτον μη αποληται αλλ εχη ζωην αιωνιον
Joh_3:17 For God did not send His Son into the world so that He might condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved.
Joh_3:17 οὐ γὰρ
ἀπέστειλεν ὁ
Θεὸς τὸν υἱὸν
αὐτοῦ εἰς
τὸν κόσμον ἵνα
κρίνῃ τὸν
κόσμον, ἀλλ᾿ ἵνα
σωθῇ ὁ
κόσμος δι᾿ αὐτοῦ.
Joh_3:17 ου γαρ απεστειλεν ο θεος τον υιον TSBαυτου εις τον κοσμον ινα κρινη τον κοσμον αλλ ινα σωθη ο κοσμος δι αυτου
Joh_3:18 He who believes in Him is not condemned; but he who does not believe has been condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.
Joh_3:18 ὁ
πιστεύων εἰς
αὐτὸν οὐ
κρίνεται, ὁ
δὲ μὴ
πιστεύων ἤδη
κέκριται, ὅτι
μὴ
πεπίστευκεν
εἰς τὸ ὄνομα
τοῦ μονογενοῦς
Υἱοῦ τοῦ
Θεοῦ.
Joh_3:19 And this is the condemnation, that the light has come into the world, and men loved the darkness more than the light, because their works were evil.
Joh_3:19 αὕτη δέ
ἐστιν ἡ
κρίσις, ὅτι
τὸ φῶς ἐλήλυθεν
εἰς τὸν
κόσμον, καὶ ἡγάπησαν
οἱ ἄνθρωποι μᾶλλον
τὸ σκότος ἢ
τὸ φῶς· ἦν
γὰρ πονηρὰ
αὐτῶν τὰ ἔργα.
Joh_3:19 αυτη δε εστιν η κρισις οτι το φως εληλυθεν εις τον κοσμον και ηγαπησαν οι ανθρωποι μαλλον το σκοτος η το φως ην γαρ TSBπονηρα αυτων Aπονηρα τα εργα
Joh_3:20 For everyone that does evil hates the light and does not come to the light, lest his works be exposed.
Joh_3:20 πᾶς
γὰρ ὁ φαῦλα
πράσσων μισεῖ
τὸ φῶς καὶ
οὐκ ἔρχεται
πρὸς τὸ φῶς, ἵνα
μὴ ἐλεγχθῇ
τὰ ἔργα αὐτοῦ·
Joh_3:21 But he who does the truth comes to the light, that his works may be revealed, that they have been done in God."
Joh_3:21 ὁ δὲ
ποιῶν τὴν ἀλήθειαν
ἔρχεται πρὸς
τὸ φῶς, ἵνα
φανερωθῇ αὐτοῦ
τὰ ἔργα, ὅτι ἐν
Θεῷ ἐστιν
εἰργασμένα.

The Point: Resurrection Enemies = Those not with/loving/believing/obeying the 2 Prophet-Witnesses (Rev_11:3) in the End Times
Sinners = New Testament Gospel Enemies
Col_1:21 Alienated, hostile minds reconciled
Col_1:23 Good Message: Hope of gospel preached
Continued Sinning
· Enemies of the good message are not just unfortunate creatures who found themselves caught in the midst of disastrous human depravity
· Enemies of the good message are not simply those who have sinned, because in fact Jesus defeated that aspect of evil already
· Enemies of the good message are not those who send in their past, since it's to these very sinners that the good message announces victory and freedom.
· Enemies of the good message are not just sinful humans, but rebellious sinners who keep on sinning.
The good message is a victory for those who have simply sinned, but it condemns and marks out as enemies those who refuse to stop and receive its message of redemption to stop sinning.
Those who continue to sin are not just unfortunately depraved humans but are active participants in sin and are therefore marked out as enemies of the good message of redemptive salvation for mankind from sinning
He condemned sin in the flesh that the righteous requirement of the law might be filled up in US
Continuing to Sin = Enemy
Continuing to Sin Proves You're an Enemy of Redemption
The Continual Sin of the Enemies of the Good Message
We absolutely desperately need to keep in mind that our flesh is the enemy of the good message
We are the most evil guilty people we've ever met in our lives (as seen in Matthew 18)
We need to constantly be able to preach the good message to our own flesh, that are flash is God's enemy
And we also need to be able to preach the good message to others after having saved ourselves by letting the Truth into convict our consciences

I'm still diligently taking a long time trying to think through the problem with the modern gospel, especially in regards to the need to convict religious people who are not really saved and are lighthearted about their messed up state.
That is to say the modern gospel tends to say something like we've all send and then because of the death burial and Resurrection we can go to heaven now. But church people can be as wicked as all get out and still acknowledge that same narrative without any problems which shows there is a gigantic major problem if church people can continue being radically evil and still accept some sort of man-made uninspired narrative that is being called The Gospel that never actually brings them to a point of conviction or feeling bad about how sinful and evil they are. So I want you to list out all of the things that are missing in the modern gospel that leave church people to be complacent and not convicted and not feeling bad about all the horrible things they keep doing to other people and to God, all while accepting their own simple gospel. And in addition to listing out all of the things that are missing that stopped church people from being convicted you can of course include key Bible verses that are part of the Gospel, in the sense that they're part of what the Bible actually says that convicts people, but are not being included in the modern gospel when it is oversimplified to saying we're all sinners and now we get to go to heaven because of what Christ did. Somewhere included in all of this needs to be related elements of what is missing, so for example, they are using the mediation of Christ and claiming that they get to go to heaven and it gives them a sense of well-being and a self flattery that they're in a good State when they're actually in a bad state. So one of the potential missing elements is things like saying that we're all sinners in the same place allows people to trivialize their unique problem of not just having sinned in the past but continuing to send in very horrible and gross ways, and this is just exactly what loose and lawless permissive people do not need at all, so it's like people have oversimplified their own Gospel to only focus on everybody having sinned and they're omitting the fact that the gospel has enemies that keep on sinning which doesn't make them part of redemption but actually makes them part of the enemies of the good message.
So for example, this could be one very important way of explaining what Jude is talking about when he says that apostates are twice dead, because they not only have guilt from the past that is not truly resolved but they keep on doing horrible things so that they have a judgment of hell as well as a judgment in the lake of fire, for having both been a sinner and yet continuing to sin.
So in this sense it would seem that part of the missing conviction in the modern gospel, and by omitting this they allow themselves to accept a oversimplified misrepresented mischaracterized modern gospel, would be elements like not including ongoing sin as part of the Gospel, since they're ignoring the enemies of the Gospel.
It is so absolutely vitally important to include the enemies of the good message, because without the presence of enemies you have no good message - the good message is specifically about defeating God's hateful enemies and that includes the ongoing sin that the flash is constantly ignoring and omitting and trivializing
Stop telling the flesh that the gospel is good news for modern Man, since it is not good news for the flesh that continues to sin - continuing to sin is sad news indeed because it's the enemy of the death of the anointed one!
1Co_1:29 That no flesh May boast before him
1Co_1:29 NKJV That no flesh should glory in His presence.
Meanwhile churches have systematized fleshly boasting in their religious services because they are promising heaven and goodness to those who have never been crucified with anointed one!
Those who have sinned are the targets of Jesus's redemption.
Those who continue sinning are ultimately the targets of Jesus's Wrath!
The real good message has convicting power that drives the flash to its knees in terror under God's judgment, and there's no way a flushmonger in church can ever seriously accept this truth without crying their eyeballs out
The oversimplified gospel is never driving the flesh to the point of accepting personal guilt to be crushed under the wrathful judgment of God
1Co_1:29 That no flesh May boast before him
Luk_6:24 woe to the rich
Rev_3:17 You say, I am rich
See: Luxury Prove Your Condemned
Luk_6:24 NKJV But woe to you who are rich, for you have received your consolation.
Jam_5:1 NKJV Come now, you rich, weep and howl for your miseries that are coming upon you!
Rev_3:17 NKJV Because you say, I am rich, have become wealthy, and have need of nothingand do not know that you are wretched, miserable, poor, blind, and naked.
The Good Message potentially assumes you are already good for it to be celebrated by you
This is very strange in a military context where you are announcing this message to the enemies!
There is something that comes before faith
Mar_1:15 REPENT & Believe the Good Message
Because the Good Message is not good news to you until after you forsake the bad side
Until you repent, the good message is against you
Until you lower yourself and change away from your luxury and pride you cannot have access to Faith in the good message
Repentance is switching sides!
This is the unique call and implication of the good message in the New Covenant...
Luk_13:3 NKJV I tell you, no; but unless you repent you will all likewise perish.
Act_3:19 NKJV Repent therefore and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out.
1Th_1:9 NKJV You turned to God from idols to serve the living and true God.
2Co_7:10 NKJV For godly sorrow produces repentance leading to salvation, not to be regretted; but the sorrow of the world produces death.
Psa_51:17 NKJV The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit, a broken and a contrite heartthese, O God, You will not despise.
Jam_4:9 NKJV Lament and mourn and weep! Let your laughter be turned to mourning and your joy to gloom.
Eze_36:26 NKJV I will give you a new heart and put a new spirit within you.
1Jn_3:9 NKJV Whoever has been born of God does not sin, for His seed remains in him.
Rev_3:19 So be zealous and repent!
The Point: The Good Message is sad news for those who lose, so REPENT!
The Real, Biblical Gospel in the Bible is bad news for
those who lose.
Jer_31:31 NC w Israel
We need to recognize and embrace the Bibles audience-specification on who its heroes & winners are
You need to be too weak to sin against others.
You need to be too much of a poor beggar to let Truth pass you by.
Isaiah 40 - anti-flesh obeyers!
WHO are the Good Guys?
Political-national Example:
Wars in Israel
Israel vs. Hamas Wars
Everyone wants to say that their religion is right
This is exactly the same principle
within churchinity
In both cases, with (A) Wars in
Israel and with (B) Debates in Churchianity, everyone wants to say that their own
faith or religion is right, but the only people that are True
are the ones obeying the Bible.
Arabs dont own
the holy land, the BIBLE says
Israel does!
Church people dont get to say they
are the posterity of the Bibles faith, BIBLE OBEYERS DO, in the exact same way
Israel owns the Promised Land!
Its called the BIBLE!
Its high time everyone stopped
selfishly flattering themselves and their filthy religions and started
reverencing the BIBLE and recognizing those whom it endorses as valid.
The whole point of the structure of
the SOM is to tell WHO the good guys are!
(Hear & DO!)
Piper wrongly said: nothing in us
can contribute to our salvation
What Is a Reformed
Understanding of the Gospel?
But actually
Gods sovereign decision to choose us IS about putting poverty in us so we are
the ones He has chosen to save
See: Jesus Proclaims the Good Message
Psa_34:6-9 NKJV This
poor man cried out, and the LORD heard him, And saved him out of all his
troubles. The angel of the LORD encamps all around those who fear Him, And delivers them. O taste and see that the LORD is good; Blessed is the man who trusts in Him! O fear
the LORD, you His saints! There is no want to those who fear Him.
Psa_72:12-14 NKJV For
He will deliver the needy when he cries, The poor also, and him who has no
helper. He will spare the poor and needy, And will
save the souls of the needy. He will redeem their life from oppression and
violence; And precious shall be their blood in His
sight.
Deu_15:7-8 If anyone is poor among your fellow
Israelites... do not be hardhearted or tightfisted toward them. Rather, be
openhanded and freely lend them whatever they need."
Psa_146:5 Blessed are those whose help is the God of
Jacob, whose hope is in the Lord their God."
Job_5:15-16 He saves the needy from the sword in their mouth; he saves them from
the clutches of the powerful. So the poor have hope, and injustice shuts its
mouth."
Isa_41:17 When the poor and needy seek water, and there
is none, and their tongue is parched with thirst, I the Lord will answer them;
I the God of Israel will not forsake them."
(A) Romans
Rom_5:10 NKJV For if when we were enemies we were reconciled to God through the
death of His Son, much more, having been reconciled, we shall be saved by His
life.
(B) Colossians
Col_1:21 NKJV And you, who once were alienated and
enemies in your mind by wicked works, yet now He has reconciled
The Point: poor-begging obeyers of
all are the winners of the good message
· Protestants pretend like Jesus didnt preach the Gospel.
· Martin Luther (anti-Bible heretic) said Romans was more important than Matthew!
· Protestants Heretics typically act like Paul had to come and write the epistles before we really ever knew what the Gospel was.

and grace to the afflicted (Pro_3:34). A humble or
contrite spirit is of great value (Pro_16:19). God will finally
give justice to the poor (Isa_11:4). The poor were
oppressed by the rich and the immoral (Amo_2:7).

Mar_1:14 NKJV Now after John was put in prison,

Luk_4:43 NKJV But He told them, I must preach the
good news of the kingdom of God to the other towns as well, because for this
purpose I have been sent.
Luk_8:1 NKJV Now it came to pass, afterward, that
He went through every city and village, preaching and bringing the glad tidings

have the gospel preached to them.

Luk_7:22 NKJV Jesus answered

the blind see, the lame walk, the lepers are cleansed, the deaf hear, the dead
are raised, the poor have the gospel preached to them.
Luk_7:22 (ESV) And
he answered them, Go and tell John what you have seen and heard: the blind
receive their sight, the lame walk, lepers are cleansed, and the deaf hear, the
dead are raised up, the poor have good news preached to them."
2Co_8:9 Though he
was rich, yet for your sakes he became poor, so that by his poverty you might
become rich."

The Point: 2Co_6: (Paul) 2Co_8:9 (Jesus)
Isa_61:1 NKJV The Spirit of the
Lord GOD is upon Me, because the LORD has anointed Me to preach good news to
the poor; He has sent Me to heal the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the
captives, and the opening of the prison to those who are bound;
Luk_4:18 NKJV The Spirit of the
Lord is upon Me, because He has anointed Me to preach the gospel to the poor;
He has sent Me to proclaim liberty to the captives and recovery of sight to the
blind, to set at liberty those who are oppressed,
Luk_4:18-19: The Spirit of the Lord is upon me,
because he has anointed me to bring good news to the poor. He has sent me to
proclaim release to the captives and recovery of sight to the blind, to let the
oppressed go free, to proclaim the year of the Lords favor."
Luk_4:18 (ESV): The Spirit of the Lord is
upon me, because he has anointed me to proclaim good news to the poor. He has

kingdom of heaven is at hand.
Mar_16:15 NKJV And He said to them, Go into all the world
and preach the gospel to every creature.
The EXCITEMENT
of the Good Message!
Is the Gospel ever boring?
If so, Something's
wrong
It is not tolerable to pretend like a message from God that saves you
could even possibly conceivably ever be boring
It is impossible, and intolerably
tabooed to think that a message from God that saves could ever be boring.
What steals the excitement of the good message?
Living in sin, blasphemous heretical false doctrine, rebellious apostasy, blind
ignorant hard-heartedness
It is at this very point where you can finally open
your eyes and see your desolation and enter into Biblical begging and be saved
by the real good message!
>> Continued Need of the Good Message is because of the Excitement of the
Good Message
Every time you are legitimately and authentically rescued from sinning and
untruth by the happy exciting zealous Love of clean Truth, this is the good
message working again to keep saving you...
Pro_4:18 Path of righteous is like a light
shining brighter
2Co_3:18 From glory to glory
Rom_1:17 From faith to faith
And this specifically has to do with the good message
Time cannot make the good message boring
With righteousness it makes Truth even more
exciting as time goes on
The real good message reminds the righteous of excitement, it never
takes it away
If the gospel ever feels boring to you, there's something wrong with your
message, something wrong with your heart, or they're very easily could be
something wrong with both
If your conscience works and alerts you that the gospel is not exciting,
this is precisely the point of Truth where you can enter into begging!
If you are sinning or being sinned against - it makes the l most
gigantic difference in the world so often...
Rom_1:16 It is the power of God
Power is NOT boring!
Hot-breathing is NOT boring in the garden - it is impossible to be boring when you are engaged in the hot breathing of the Good Message of Jesus's sacrifice
And notice that this excitement only happens when you're tired of
sinning, and being sinned against, and you'll never get the Truth of the Good
Message as long as you're the one continuing to do the sins against others.
Radical Union
with Anointed One is Needed
Luk_22:44 And being in agony he prayed more fervently
_
Php_3:10 to know him and the power of his resurrection and the fellowship of his suffering
I long to know him the power of resurrection and the fellowship of sufferings
Gal_2:20; Gal_5:24
Real faith and persuasion in the good message is so profoundly impressed and breathtakingly amazed with Jesus choosing crucifixion In The garden of Gethsemane
Real faith and persuasion in the good message is so amazed and so attracted and so impressed with Jesus in The garden of Gethsemane that one is compelled to run after him and follow after him and be with him in the garden
When you're really impressed with the real good announcement you are so breathtakingly amazed with Jesus's sacrifice that you can't help but run there after him and you're so impressed with his courageous sweat of blood in the garden that you have to be with him and you have to learn from him how to embrace this same courageous obedience to the death steak!
When you're not amazed compelled driven to run with him into the garden and you're insufficiently impressed with his attitude and are not amazed to follow him and find out how to be like him, it's because you are estranged from the good message of Jesus anointed one and his bloody sacrifice in his courageous powerful Resurrection has not brought you to wake up unto righteousness to not sin...
2Co_5:20 We implore you on anointed ones behalf Be reconciled to God
_
That is said to church people!
1Pe_4:1-2 -
suffer in the flesh and cease from sin
don't 'tell an old old story' about
how Antichrist shed his ketchup for your sins!
there is no significance to the death of anointed one in your
preaching or faith unless you are dying with him on an execution stake and you
stop sinning!

Mat_1:21
2Co_2 5 Transformation
Slavery to Sin = End-Times Apostasy
2Pe_2:14 NKJV having eyes full of adultery
and that cannot cease from sin, enticing unstable souls. They
have a heart trained in covetous practices, and are accursed children.
New Birth = No Sin
1Jn_3:9 NKJV Whoever has been born of God
does not sin, for His seed remains in him; and he cannot sin,
because he has been born of God.
Defeating sin death and Satan includes those who follow him in continual sin....
>Fire prepared for the devil in his angels
Bath my sword in heaven and come down on Edem
God has created bad guys in his cosmic story to defeat, and we lose the excitement when we lose the link between the devil and the real present sin and evil we see in this world

cosmic story to defeat, and we lose the excitement when we lose the link
between the devil and the real present sin and evil we see in this world
Joh_8:34 he who sins is a slave of sin
Joh_8:34 NKJV Jesus answered them,
Most assuredly, I say to you, whoever commits sin is a slave of sin.
Rom_6:16 NKJV Do you not know that
to whom you present yourselves slaves to obey, you are that ones slaves whom
you obey, whether of sin leading to death, or of obedience leading to
righteousness?
1 Corinthians 15
1Co_15:54-57 Death defeated
1Co_15:34 Do not sin!
1Co_15:54 NKJV So
when this corruptible has put on incorruption, and this mortal has put on
immortality, then shall be brought to pass the saying that is written: Death
is swallowed up in victory.
1Co_15:56-57 NKJV The sting of
death is sin, and the strength of sin is the law. But thanks be
to God, who gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.
1Co_15:34 NKJV Awake to
righteousness, and do not sin; for some do not have the knowledge of God. I
speak this to your shame.
The Good Message is intimately linked with watching in prayer and spiritual warfare to let the Truth defeat all evil - all of God's enemies
If you even really took the cosmic spiritual side of God's victory seriously it would be exciting to walk in victory over sin and to no longer be a slave of sin...
But it loses it's excitement when you disconnect the reality of heavenly victory with the practical present evil of sin in your life and in others
Rom_8:3 He condemned sin in sinful man
Rom_8:3 NKJV For what the law could not do in that it was weak through the flesh, God did by sending His own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh, on account of sin: He condemned sin in the flesh.
2Co_5:21 NKJV For He made Him who knew no sin to be sin for us, that we might become the righteousness of God in Him.
Heb_2:14 NKJV Inasmuch then as the children have partaken of flesh and blood, He Himself likewise shared in the same, that through death He might destroy him who had the power of death, that is, the devil.
Rom_6:6 Dismantle the body of sin to not even working
Rom_6:6 NKJV Knowing this, that our
old man was crucified with Him, that the body of sin might be done away with,
that we should no longer be slaves of sin.
Gal_5:24 NKJV And
those who are Christs have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires.
Col_3:9-10 NKJV
Do not lie to one another, since you have put off the old man with his
deeds, and have put on the new man who is renewed in knowledge according to the
image of Him who created him.
Rom_8:13 NKJV For
if you live according to the flesh you will die; but if by the Spirit you put
to death the deeds of the body, you will live.
It is impossible, and intolerably tabooed to think that a message from God that saves could ever be boring.
What steals the excitement of the good message?
Living in sin, blasphemous heretical false doctrine, rebellious apostasy, blind ignorant hard-heartedness
It is at this very point where you can finally open your eyes and see your desolation and enter into Biblical begging and be saved by the real good message!

...
Deception is Boring -- Ultimately
Stop being passively comforted by (conventional normal run of the mill boring routine) spiritual delusions and start being courageously ferocious against sin and there's plenty of excitement to start off with
Excitement
Rom_8:22 Creation groans and we groan for the future redemption which is worked out right now in salvation from sin
Rom_8:22 NKJV For we know that the whole creation groans and labors with birth pangs together until now.
Rom_8:23 NKJV Not only that, but we also who have the firstfruits of the Spirit, even we ourselves groan within ourselves, eagerly waiting for the adoption, the redemption of our body.
The fiery romantic sacrifice of giving up the things you thought you wanted to lust after for the things that are morally clean, romantic, thrilling, divinely fiery above your head in prayer...
This is not some sort of advanced sanctification but is the basic rudimentary initial call to forsake all and embrace Jesus's real cross - which is the gospel to give up your life for the hope of Jesus's eternal life
You give up and risk your whole life for the romantic love of God and wait expectantly to see in what form or fashion or manner trusting God is going to result in an adventurous deliverance and salvation
The gospel of church is not exciting because no one's taking up their cross, forsaking all, risking their whole life and putting it in God's hands, and no one's getting saved because no one's putting themselves in a forsake all position where they need to be saved by God.
The modern gospel is so simple a fleshly person can understand and even appreciate it
It's no wonder there's no anticipation, excitement, Wonder, or awe!
In the modern "simple gospel" where is the unsearchable wisdom of God and the revelation of the hidden treasures of Jesus Anointed One?
Church people claim they have a gospel of JC
But when you have no hidden deep mysteries and treasures of wisdom and knowledge you are not preaching the Jesus in the Bible!
The Biblical Gospel is full of depth and mystery and wonder and enigmas and revelation of Truth and on Rush of exciting insight and moral Resurrection
When Daniel looked into the future and saw Jesus coming he was overwhelmed with excitement and this tension was so overwhelming between the son of man coming in the clouds and Antichrist defeating the saints that he fell down sick certain days...
The sheer intensity of Revelation and the reality of the real good message never allows you to be boring when embracing it...
There's not a single thing boring about being knocked down on the floor by revelation and moral fire burning over your head in prayer
The excitement of the biblical good message is not about becoming more intense about what you already have, but the depths of the mysteries of God are about what you do not yet have!
It's not what you already know, it's what your flesh still does not know
You do not yet have enough of the good message that's why you need to keep hearing more about it because your flesh knows absolutely nothing about God's salvation without divine inspiration!
The Good Message is a continual revelation of the righteous moral justice of God in Jesus Anointed One, and His infinite identity can keep you breathless forever because the endless excitement of who He is never ends
It's not simply the name of Jesus as a pronunciation out of your mouth, which was essentially revealed at his first advent, but rather about the infinity of his character which is inexhaustible and unsearchable and full of endless treasures of Revelation and knowledge, and so the ultimate glory of the good message is about who he is coming to reveal himself to be
The excitement of the good message doesn't happen when you keep on playing Protestant passive spirituality and looking away from yourself to an ethereal fictional fairy tale JC in heaven, but the real good announcement fundamentally and essentially includes the speaker and the listener, so that you cannot look away to some theology or theory-ology and think positively about your pie in the sky when the real good message touches every heart here on Earth
The good message, if it is successfully delivered to you, is a message to you and includes you and the messenger who gives you the Truth and includes your very vital need to be saved from sin and to fully engage the spiritual war from Heaven to Earth to let the truth defeat all evil into and through your entire life
When you celebrate and boast in a "simple gospel", you've taken the teeth and the sword out of the Biblical Gospel, and with it your eternal life is lost because God's good message is a boring bland conventional repeated fake failure substitute impersonation shallow misrepresentation and total robbery of all that is exciting and mysterious and thrilling and adventurous and courageous about the truth of God's good saving message
Stop trying to distract God from morality by reminding him that he supposed to be presenting a simple gospel about a supposed theoretical death burial and resurrection that doesn't touch or have anything to do with defeating the real and present danger of deadly sin right in your face!
Rom_8:3 He came and condemned sin
He slays the dragon (see below)
He defeats all evil, from Heaven to EARTH!
Whoever holds on to this world, is worldly, and sinful, and is explicitly counted and marked out as His enemy which He is coming in Victorious thunder through the clouds to defeat
Dragon Defeated
Rev_12:9 NKJV So the great dragon was cast out, that serpent of old, called the Devil and Satan, who deceives the whole world; he was cast to the earth, and his angels were cast out with him.
Rev_12:11 NKJV And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony, and they did not love their lives to the death.
Col_2:15 NKJV Having disarmed principalities and powers, He made a public spectacle of them, triumphing over them in it.
Heb_2:14 NKJV That through death He might destroy him who had the power of death, that is, the devil.
The good message is an action thriller because it is a battle between
the good guys and the bad guys with a definite victory and a potent loss at
stake
When you're tired of sinning and being sinned against the good message
is extremely exciting
Isaiah's predictions about Jesus' good message include a defeat of
sinners
That's why it's so evil and oxymoronic and illogical
and anti-biblical to talk about being a sinner saved by grace
It only gives hope to the right kind of people
The Good Message is not really exciting to those who continue sinning -
because they're The Losers of the good message
You're not allowed to remove the action and excitement out of the
biblical good message
Rom_1:8 your faith is proclaimed/Good Messaged everywhere
Rom_1:8 NKJV First, I thank my God through Jesus Christ for you all, that your faith is spoken of throughout the whole world.
Comp. 1Th_1:
Rom_1:15 Paul is eager to preach the Good Message to them
Rom_1:15 NKJV So, as much as is in me, I am ready to preach the gospel to you who are in Rome also.
1Co_9:16 NKJV For if I preach the gospel, I have nothing to boast of, for necessity is laid upon me; yes, woe is me if I do not preach the gospel!
Rom_10:15 NKJV And how shall they preach unless they are sent? As it is written: How beautiful are the feet of those who preach the gospel of peace, who bring glad tidings of good things!
Good Message = Hardcore, NOT Soft!
NO Laziness!
NO Lazy thinking!
Luk_13:24 Strive to enter
Luk_13:24 NKJV Strive to enter through the narrow gate, for many, I say to you, will seek to enter and will not be able.
Mat_7:13-14 NKJV Enter by the narrow gate; for wide is the gate and broad is the way that leads to destruction, and there are many who go in by it. Because narrow is the gate and difficult is the way which leads to life, and there are few who find it.
Heb_4:11 NKJV Let us therefore be diligent to enter that rest, lest anyone fall according to the same example of disobedience.
The good message in the Bible confronted the sins of their day
Saying Jesus is Lord could cost your life by insinuating that Caesar is being dethroned and is no longer Lord...
Religious stiff neck chews had to renounce their long-held flesh ball radical sinful evil wicked religion to acknowledge the Truth about the rabbi they hated and murdered
The real Good Message is just as counter-church as it always has been
You're not allowed to pretend that fitting in conventional churchianity can sin in such gross disgusting hateful ways while simultaneously having any legitimate claim to the good message in the Bible
